Yes.You are saying no matter what I do with Kung Lao, I will just lose to a guy because he selected Kabal?

what if i have a problem with reptileBut to answer the question:
If you have a problem with Kitana, then use Reptile.
If you have a problem with Sonya, then use Noob.
If you have a problem with Cage, then use Kabal.
Although this takes a bit of practice to learn a new character and then a new MU, so just stick it out with KL, and watch how awesome he is, all the time.
Then don't choose Kitana.what if i have a problem with reptile
I definitely agree... My training partner kompletely disagrees. I'm picking up Lao to prove him wrong.I actually think hes a top 3 character. He has no real bad MUs. His worst is a 4-6 and its probably vs Sonya but thats not even that bad of a MU. He has all the tools to win with. The problem is that so many players play the character incorrectly and still too risky with random teleports and low hats. I think once the game evolves people will see how ridiculous he is.
At the highest level, obviously. Here, let me bring in some American players who have experience Kabal at the absolute highest level in the US to chime in:So let me get this straight...
You are saying no matter what I do with Kung Lao, I will just lose to a guy because he selected Kabal? Come on dude, do you really live and die by MU charts?
Your going to have to elaborate a little bit more than that man, but allow me:
Kabal has to dash cancel to get anything started on offence, you have said so yourself, and I agree, but and with every cancel, the possibility of a spin or is on the cards, and you certainly can't resort to keeping Kung Lao out all that easy, so like I said, Im not convinced.
Your going to have to actually fight, and we all know how kabal players don't like that.
Is the joke funnier now?
KL imo i think loses the MU at the highest level. In order for KL to win the match he needs to control the momentum at all times. You have to win by making the other player play your game. If kabal is in control then KL loses but its harder for KL to gain the advantage first, that is why I think kabal beats him. Mistakes on either side is CRITICALAt the highest level, obviously.

If they don't get through your thick skull then I don't know what will. All I'm going to say, if you plan on going to EVO and aren't maining Kabal, you're doing it wrong.
Just because you couldn't, that does not mean that I and half of the community will follow suit.All I'm going to say, if you plan on winning EVO and aren't maining Kabal, you're doing it wrong.
Kabal can't AIF all day to get damage, its only a zoning tact, yes, he will check you with 1-3 saw blades a round, but thats not enough, he will have to actually dash cancel at some point to get rushdown going for some damage, and up close is not where you want a good Kung Lao player to be.KL imo i think loses the MU at the highest level.

Top 3 eh? FINALLY YOU GET ON MY LEVEL OF THINKING!I actually think hes a top 3 character. He has no real bad MUs. His worst is a 4-6 and its probably vs Sonya but thats not even that bad of a MU. He has all the tools to win with. The problem is that so many players play the character incorrectly and still too risky with random teleports and low hats.

Its Crazy that no one can see this.KL has no bad MU's imo. And i m gonna agree with Glue Raiden is very underrated also. Just because he doesnt have many who can rep him well doesnt mean he is not good.
Kitana has adventaje vs Kung Lao this is proof 1 mistake and lao will pay hard Kitana can do more mistakes than Lao and still come out aliveSonya is not a bad match for KL...
KL can turtle sonya outside of jump distance and low hat the shit out of her until she jumps in, she also cannot EVER use 114 from a jip or otherwise.
Cage is only a 5-5, its not a bad match.
And Kitana is a 5-5 aswell.
Kung Lao has no bad matches as far as i'm concerned. He is the best character in the game.
Kabal is genuinely the best character in the game. The last two major tournaments have been won by two Kabal players. One of the biggest Console Combat local tournaments here in Cleveland, Ohio has been won by a Kabal player. These are not coincidences.Kabal is not the be all and end all of this game, its just another fad flavour of the month.
I see this! I totally agreeIts Crazy that no one can see this.
You are one wrong guess away from a full combo punish, after almost everything you or raiden does.
Man just what i was looking for! So Kitana doesnt actually have an advantage over these characters hmmKitana is not a bad Matchup for Kl, it is 5-5
and kitana does not beat cage or sonya, both are 5-5
you could always use sub zero for cage...Man just what i was looking for! So Kitana doesnt actually have an advantage over these characters hmm
maybe i'll just try to ocv with KL
i already play Sub Zero you dolt.you could always use sub zero for cage...
