TYM's Hot Topic of the Week: Do we ban Scorpion from tournament play?

[Smarrgasm]

If foxy is able to beat REO & PL scorpion with no problems using Wonder Woman that means the rest of you need to level up and learn the match faster. All this crying is point less and the thread should be closed since TYM mods love to close shit!

You do see who started this thread right? Please read his replies and logic before saying this. He explains his reasons very well even though he can beat it.

 

[Owerbart]

With how the game currently stands, not even getting rid of Scorpion is going to do shit, because I hear a lot of people calling the game boring and whatnot before Scorpion dropped.

And again, you guys don't know how many characters out there exist that fuck up metagames, but aren't banned. Best example: T4 Jin.

T6 Bob?

Aqua-D2
Catwoman- Anti Air whip
Raven- Soul crush/singularity
Batgirl- Flying Bat
GA- Up arrow
Scorpion- Tele, lol
Deathstroke- Blade rush
HG- Evade into whatever

Yes that 4% you get from AA sword flip will sure show them!

Also AA Whip, I lol'd.

I am a Catwoman main. While everyone bitches that she has no AA, I use AA whip and get people every time. Who cares if its little damage, it is better than letting them jump on you all day.

As for Scorpion all he has to do is jump at me and I jump back J2 and he is in for a full combo.

 

[Crimson Panther]

Voted yes.

 

[JrK]

After watching PL vs alucard... ouch

It's not a matter of random scrubs who just hold up, just like people weren't talking about KF who randomly threw out slides. If you look at the J1s and J3s, they're made after Scorpion is already at advantage. I wouldn't recommend trying to J2 that.

 

[sub_on_dubs]

I don't what NRS was thinking when they decided to put Scorpion in this game. They still have so much to learn.

So I AA Whip.

Plus if he is at advantage, tell me HOW he is at advantage. HOW did you let him become advantaged?

They did exactly what you guys told them to do.

Make him better in the next game he was in, it just happened to be Injustice. How you didn't see this coming after Kratos and Freddy is almost unfathomable.

You're joking.

 

[Zoidberg747]

You're joking.

Yes the AA Whip thing was a joke

Now answer the question. Why is he at advantage?

 

[TJ Casters]

I say we wait until after a few more competitions then we make a big stand on this issue. We can show our disapproval of Scorpion as a whole community and we can tell NRS to take action, assuming nothing happens to fix Scorpion in the patch coming with Zod. Scorpion's really killing the game for me. I'm a huge DC fan, and seeing SO MANY FREAKING SCORPION matches just kills it. I'm getting bored and angry. Once we have proof that Scorpion sucks, we can make a formal request of NRS.

Either introduce BIG changes to bring Scorpion down or take him out completely.

But then again, NRS wouldn't hurt their poster boy.

 

[STRYKIE]

You think so? What if I were to tell you they nerfed Scorpion in MK9 before the full game was even released?

 

[Vogue]

He's going to be at CEO . He's going to be at EVO not matter what the community desires. We can have this conversation afterwards when there is actual evidence to go by. That said as soon as Scorpion is picked you are no longer playing Iniustice you are playing Scorpion regardless if that is a winnable game or not.

 

[k1nG_Qu1nN]

I think this thread should be put on hold until the next balance update.....

 

[Spinky]

Scorpion wasn't even that good in MK9, they can do something.

 

[M2Dave]

LOL @ trying to ban something due to perception of a game by steam monsters.

Where have you been for the past three years, fool?

That is how NRS balances their fighting games. Online scrubs cried about mid tier characters (i.e., Jade, Kano, Sub Zero, etc.) in MK and NRS "normalized" them.

 

[feedyourcatbro]

Yes the AA Whip thing was a joke

Now answer the question. Why is he at advantage?

What, any knockdown into a crossover J3? Beats Catwoman whip, just tested it. Go ahead and do something though, there's a lovely teleport waiting for you if you MB B3, etc. Which, btw, if one of those connects, he's +25. Should I explain what frames are while I'm at it, or how to load the game on your console?

There's other, even more obvious ways too. You'll learn them whenever you get around to playing the game.

;_;

 

[TJ Casters]

I meant that they put him in a game where he doesn't belong and they made him way too good against most of the cast. The they "nerfed" him but that didn't do anything practically. It's not fair and it's making this game suck for true DC fans.

 

[Blind_Ducky]

What if scorpions teleport didn't cross up?

MB B3 has armor. Teleport will not beat it. Everyone can crossup on knockdown. I never said Scorpion wasnt broken, I said it is way too early to tell.

You act so high and mighty, have you done any thing of importance in the game. Competed in a tournament, helped the community?

Or are you an online warrior that sits on your couch and thinks you know everything?

I didn't play that piece of shit game MK. Obviously NRS learned a lot since MK9 which is why this is a good game( pre scorpion) .

All of the Injustice patch changes have made the game better even if you are a Deathstroke crier. My problem isn't with NRS , it's with people saying to ban Scorpion so the game doesn't look bad at EVO.
