Come On Die Young
Because it's the only move that will go through rep forceball setups when you're on the ground? I see. Apparently no one believes me except Reptile players I play...It should never be used. Period.

Yeah, good luck recovering on whiff.Because it's the only move that will go through rep forceball setups when you're on the ground? I see. Apparently no one believes me except Reptile players I play...
Why would it whiff? I'm talking about when they back up to about jumping distance and use a forceball, which is almost every reptile's strategy when you're otg. Ex pretty kick goes through that and hits them.Yeah, good luck recovering on whiff.
how so? As far as I know, just by getting up gives you 11 frames of invincibility right at the start. Just because it doesn't say "wake up attack" it doesn't mean it isn't one. I'll be back later with the quote.And kitana only needs one buff.. a FUCKING WAKE UP ATTACK. this can be done with changes to either ex pretty kicks or ex cutter. or change regular pretty kicks somehow. IT'd also be nice if fake out kick had a fucking ex version.. why the hell does it not?
Oh this is a sad day.I approve of this thread.
I agree. Maybe they could buff her boobs more though.snip
No, it isn't crazy. As others have already stated she doesn't have armor on the way up when she does the enh. SB and thus the move is useless as a wake-up and to counter pressure. Enh. pretty kick does less than 15% damage, is -11 on block and hardly leads to anything on hit, so it having armor is not ridiculous. As for her fake out kick, as I said, it's interruptible so the opponent has a chance to deny her to get those plus frames on block.so u think giving kitana a 2nd armor move and giving her +frames on block isnt crazy? ok sure
so your argument is, this armor is crud so i want to give armor to another move instead of asking to buff the armored frames on ex ass so i can have a 15% armored move and give my char(who is already a top 5 char)a more solid wakeup game because of it. so u want her to have armored ex ass for instant air ass for if you dont want to thrown a fan and a armored move for when there in to close to throw fans, that is ridiculous my friend, you want too much for a char that in no way needs itNo, it isn't crazy.

Otherwise, like I said in my first post, I'd buff other characters too.
Am I seriously the only person who realizes ex pretty kick goes through almost all anti-kit wakeup setups (rep's forceball, scorpion's spear, sub's clone unless he puts it further out than usual). Also, the last hit of ex pretty kick will hit crouching on high hitbox characters. But apparently everyone thinks I'm incapable of finding something useful, so alright.Pretty Kick is a gamble wake up attack move, it only helps if your opponent tries to cross over after they scored a knockdown. Kitana's Pretty Kick will switch sides. If they duck her Pretty Kick, there goes a free 12% uppercut. Useless move.
EX Pretty Kick catches me very off-guard because I never actually expect a Kitana user to use it, so I may D4, only to be kicked in the face after my D4 whiffs.Also, the last hit of ex pretty kick will hit crouching on high hitbox characters.
You think she's Top 5, I don't.so your argument is, this armor is crud so i want to give armor to another move instead of asking to buff the armored frames on ex ass so i can have a 15% armored move and give my char(who is already a top 5 char)a more solid wakeup game because of it. so u want her to have armored ex ass for instant air ass for if you dont want to thrown a fan and a armored move for when there in to close to throw fans, that is ridiculous my friend, you want too much for a char that in no way needs it
i dont think im the only one who thinks kitana's top 5, ALOT of people do, not saying your wrong thoughYou think she's Top 5, I don't.
More solid wake-up game? Her wake-up game is far from solid as it is now.
Jax, Kanshi, Sonya etc have multiple armored moves... Just for example: Johnny Cage has an armored shadow kick that is comparable to Kitana's enh. square boost, but he also has enhanced nut-punch with invincible start-up that automatically sets-up his pressure game. What would be Kitana's equivalent to his enhanced nut-punch? The buffed enhanced pretty kick I suggested would be good, but still not nearly as game changing as Cage's enh. nut-punch. Still think it's ridiculous?
Again, I said I'd buff other characters too, not just Kitana.
Ridiculous statement. And slanderous to those players and their actual skill and decision making. And isn't this the forum for the character that killed nearly everyone for a while with "brain dead" air fan zoning? Everyone might as well call her brain dead too, until they develop a good way to fight her, and she has to actually fight outside her comfort zone. These characters you list are no different.Kenshi, Cage, and Kabal are also extremely high on the BD list. No doubt about that.
Fine then, we'll agree to disagree.and yes i still think its ridiculous
