We are Many but we didnt make MK11 not one
I can agree with that I have no idea how to get around sheeva's stump unless I have x ray but Ive noticed a well timed teleport can interrupt it but i need to figure out the timing 
Smoke's tp cant be defeated by TKP on reaction. Everytime i have tried doing it, i was hit by it. I dont know though, perharps i wasnt doing it fast enough. Perhaps KT Smith could shed some light here about that. Ermac's TKP cant be punished by Smoke's tp, but on the other hand Ermac cannot punish his smoke bomb gimmicks up close too. He can only down poke him afterwards. Projectiles are out of the question against Smoke also cause of shake. TKP though can win against Smoke's smoke cloud. Also i believe you can jump out of smoke bomb gimmicks up close but its kinda risky cause if you get caught, we all know what happens if you dont have meter. In terms of dmg Ermac has the upper hand even without using meter, while Smoke needs to have meter for his resets which from what i ve seen are not always guaranteed. Just be careful of Smoke bombs when in fullscreen and be always on the look out to punish heavy any blocked tp's. Also if he tries to do any IAT's to close the distance you can easily punish them with d1 to lift. Its also best to end your combos with the F4 reset to keep him close to you. Also keep in mind that shake and ex shake do not work against TKP and lift. To answer your question on to who has to play more safe i would say Smoke cause he relys too much on his teleport. Smoke bombs also can be avoided by dashing. Its a little bit tricky but if you get down the timing it really changed alot this MU imo. I still believe though its an even MU all the way. Both have the tools to win and both must work the same to win also.
Yeah tp can punish it but its very risky imo. If you can keep her in TKP range, TKP can win agains her telestomp like it does against QC and Scorpion's tp's. Just be carefull of the armored version though.I can agree with that I have no idea how to get around sheeva's stump unless I have x ray but Ive noticed a well timed teleport can interrupt it but i need to figure out the timing
You respect kitana too much. Ive played top level kitanas and its not impossible. Just dont be dumb and jump into an iaf. Poke out her combos and do your best at keeping her in the corner. Unlike mostof the cast ermac can keep kitana corner fucked because her ass out can get caught in tkp. This matchup is about max punishment. You dont even need to make the greatest reads
Njp and njk dont work?
They do but its kinda risky imo. Key to win this MU is to keep yourself at midscreen distance where she cant do absolutely nothing.
I didnt say its un winnable but the match is still in nones favor if Ermac keeps Kitana out he can win but if Kitana gets in Ermac is dead hes normals are slower than Kitanas and has no armor to scape the inevitable death I personally dont feel this match is hard for Kitana like the Kenshi or Kabal matches.
Yeah but the thing is its not easy for Kitana to get in. Thats the point. Up close they are even, but midscreen Ermac has a vast advantage. He wont just stand there and spam TKP's when she starts dash blocking to get to him. Also there are times where the second hit of F21 might whiff if you re not careful with your spacing and that can be disastrous for Kitana. Ermac's 121 string starts at 10f and his 312 string starts at 12f. He is not as slow as you make him to be.
there is no Ermac normal faster than 2 or 21 or 21 cutter Kitana will hit faster than ermac from close if both chars deside to hit at same time and 2 has more range than any of ermacs stuf once Kitana is in she just runs over him you cant say they are ven from close because Ermac CANT rush down Kitana but Kitana CAN rushdown Ermac thats a fact.
Kitana's 2 has a 11f startup. Ermac's 1 has a 10f startup. What are you talking about ? Both are equally up close simply because both can interrupt each others strings. How can she rush him down when simply everything she does contains high hits which can be down poked ? I really dont understand your logic.
Did it occur to you that he might not know the MU well ? Good for him if he does well on streams, but simply because you can win against him or not have to work that hard to win against him doesnt mean its an even MU m8. You are telling me that because you won against one Ermac player i have to concede that the MU is even ? Sorry but no. Get your facts straight.
Yeah you have a point here. Its true that i havent faced a Kitana player in your lvl but i ve seen what she can do and besides the OTG Mr.Mileena found (respect) i havent seen anything else that convinces me that its an even MU. Anyway for the sake of the project we are doing i will put the MU as even so this can end now.
Read post #201.
What kind of problems would Ermac give Sonya? If you think Kenshi and Sonya is even then Sonya beats ermac 8-2 lol
LOL
