Battle Arena Week 3 Winners Announced -- Gameplay footage is LIVE!

[CrimsonShadow]

I feel like maybe Green Lantern's moveset/combos weren't completely explored in this video. I'd like to see more.

But then, they also might consciously be trying to save things for the later rounds of the bracket.

Which would you say is his more important tool, NDC or IAGBs?


Right now Injustice is "theory fighter" as we can only go by what we see and right now Cyborg looks like an insane character, Batman looks top 5 and Joker is low tier. When people complain or praise tactics it's all in theory and a way to open discussion on these characters. If all we do is praise all we see then it's gonna be a boring next couple months.

At the same time, some of you people need to learn to stop making you posts look so trollish and to accept things instead of being argumentative for the sake of being argumentative.

Ok, idk if you are ranting at me or just quoted me for that one question? lol Anyways, to answer I think IAGB's are more important to him than NDC's, but not just because of the simple fact that it's zoning.

The story of the game will play slightly in the future, so who knows what happened in the mean time.

Maybe the Regime was paying Wayne Manor a visit and tried to find clues about Batman's new place, but that would mean that the Batcave is not the usual Batcave we know, but a new place, no one knows about (even though I don't see Superman not being able to find it, if he really tries).

Good point, it could be a decrepit Wayne Manor if Bruce is forced to go underground.

Ok, idk if you are ranting at me or just quoted me for that one question? lol Anyways, to answer I think IAGB's are more important to him than NDC's, but not just because of the simple fact that it's zoning.

Oh no, sorry. The question was for you, the rest was a general statement. Regardless, Kabals zoning can be overcome by just about any viable character and not just "dash into him", NDC is a much harder tool to deal with.

GL definitely got the mercy win this time around, like the WWv Harley fight his player was clearly totally outclassed.

IGN just uploaded this nice little Aquaman Combat Trailer:

This is why there most likely won't be a demo, and I am glad, theory fighting and whining before anything is even established regarding how Injustice is played, tactics, strategy, frame data, etc.

Especially a demo that wouldn't even be the final build than you'd have all these people turning into armchair QBs for 2 mins of gameplay. Oh yeah, and the hack that happened for MK9.

Aquaman apparently got a combat trailer on IGN I missed. If you were disappointed in Aquaman this week I bet we see some of this in the semis from him.

IAGBs without a doubt

Hey man all I said was he looks broken as hell with his insane zoning and great mobility.... then comes along the "omfg stop crying posts" from the same people who defended vinalla Kung Lao and say that Kabal's IAGB is not a great zoning tool

 

[PoliceBrutality]

GL's super is sick!

True, but I actually think they could have pushed it even further by making the jets at the end fire their machine guns first then crash on him...or just have all of them release all their missiles after firing their machine guns. That would have been more badass IMO

 

[Killphil]

That first grab grundy did on GL he did NOT have his gimmick(I hate calling it that) active. Seems like his green gas thing speeds up and possibly increases range/properties on command normals/specials. Idk.

Theory fighting is all we do dude. People are saying that Skarlet is top ten, in theory, but we've yet to see a player put her together and the game has been out for almost two years. People are saying Viper in UMvC3 is a top 5 character but no one is putting it together. All we do is theory with facts to support it, all matchup numbers are "in theory", all tier lists are "in theory".

 

[Cat]

Green latern looks meh. I feel even the Mk vs dc version was better. Smh

I'm speaking in terms of theory fighting without actually playing the game.

at 9 sec of that video does that look like an over head projectile or an ex version of that ground claw-esque trident?

 

[RYX]

how are you going to blow people up for theory fighting when that's literally the only thing we can do right now? just going "hurr that looks cool" or "durrrrrr weird looking sharks wonder woman manface" is even less helpful IMO

all we can do is look at what's shown to us on the monitor, and from that we make theories.

 

[BGMD]

WHat Manor is that, anyway. Is that supposed to be wayne manor?

there is a Wayne tower in background, so probably yes

This is literally the exact same thing I was thinking...

 

[IIWade3II]

That Ign Aquaman vid was so much better! Thank god i saw that.

 

[Compbros]

I'm just saying that even with years put in to some games they still operate on theory.

IAGBs without a doubt


Hey man all I said was he looks broken as hell with his insane zoning and great mobility.... then comes along the "omfg stop crying posts" from the same people who defended vinalla Kung Lao and say that Kabal's IAGB is not a great zoning tool

So if Kabal still had GBs, just couldn't do them in the air, and every other tool available it'd be a greater loss than NDC? I'm telling you, if Kabal did not have NDC then people would be rushing him down free as hell since he can't put that insane pressure on them.


Whhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaatttttt? Who said Kabal's IAGBs is not a great zoning tool? No one in this thread from what I've seen, I think you're just interpreting it that way.

 

[Cat]

I know about animals...I know about sharks...I even know about Great Whites.
1. Those teeth look like they enlarged Baraka's teeth.
2. They don't swim around as if "biting" something at all times
3. They are blind when biting
4. SHARKS DON'T SMILE, this isn't Finding Nemo!
5. Does THIS look ANYTHING LIKE the shark in the game?! HELL NO.

You guys really complaining about the realism of a shark in a video game full of super heroes???

Lol you guys.

KABAL SUCKS. WE GET IT.

CAN WE GET BACK TO MASTURBATING ABOUT GRUNDY?

I made a new thread for Grundy talk because this one was getting trolled with MK arguments.

 

[Fractured_Shadow]

Have we seen any moves from ANY character that puts your opponent back on their feet ala JC NP, Kabal f4, sonya 112? I've been looking for them but cant seem to find any...

Cyborg actually has Kabal's knee attack IIRC, unless it was taken out.
