Noob's saibot or noob saibot's?
Sooooooooo, I just played against a good Bane for the first time as Grundy :( Seriously, what in the name of armour do you do?!

Shoutouts to @PND OmegaK for showing me Grundy knows little of strength lol

Going to hit training mode to look into shit but in the mean time anyone that has any advice I would appreciate it.
im still figuring that one out omegas bane is nasty

It was the most depressing set ever lol It was 12-1 to him I think, I just felt completely helpless and even after going into training mode and studying up I feel about the same. There's definitely some stuff that you can do offline that I didn't consistent online but even so... Did make me want to learn Bane though :D

Hey, how do you guys handle the Zod matchup? I struggle getting in on that asshole, but I make it count when I knock him down.

basically get your health trait up and WCC his projectiles his trait swipes can be WCC'd so can low lazer , always use f1 whatever on wake up to eliminate his parry

Any Grundy's interested in running the match-up? He's literally the only character I have zero experience against w/ Frost.

>>R2 - BF4 = Unblockable.
Been digging into the Wonder Woman matchup a bit and found some good stuff after a D12 is blocked from her.
Just tried the things that I've seen and played against WoWo players do.

D12 followed by another D12 can be WC'd out of and MB=B3'd. The second hit of the D12 won't reach when you do the B3 so you'll absorb the first hit, second hit whiffs and your B3 connects.

D12 followed by 33, quite a lot of options out of this, you can neutral jump it, back dash it and whiff punish with standing 2 into MB hands (her B2 will catch your back dash though) or you can WC out. Grundy's D2 will also beat WoWo's 33.

D12 into tiara can be interrupted with D2, follow up 11 will connect, so you can either take this into MB hands or trait if you don't have a bar.

Hi! I play Shazam and wanted to get sets with Grundy. I am in Southern California and have Verizon Fios which seems pretty consistent when I play online. I mainly play longer sets on the weekend, but do play when available on the weekdays. If anyone has time to play please let me know! ShinobiSpectre on XBL.

I'm assuming you mean after you block a D12? B23 beats WCC but standing 1 or 2 from Grundy will beat it clean so if they do go for that they will eat a full punish. If you just let your WC go then this will work.

If they parry it depends on what your guess is, single hits and she can parry and punish you, if you do a string you can jail her or beat her out depending on what she does. Just tested this with 33 and B113, 112 gets you a combo still whereas a single hit like standing 2 makes you eat whatever her follow up would have been. In that case, 33 or B113.

I don't know what kind of nightwings you have been vsing to not even say it is in his favor

Who hired this guy, WTF?
Chip trait is the way to go for this one you have to be patient. I think you can do a mb trait grab after a blocked d1 into arrow
Chip trait? Nah. Health trait.

You have to learn GA mixups and youll honestly be fine. They are not hard to block + they dont do much damage. Once you get him in the corner its GG

Yeah but the character is so quick I can never catch him and his jump 3 is so annoying I cant just yolo him because he can get away when he shoots the ground and jumps back w/e that move is
