BLAK FELOW
I've played every nw and murk is the best by a good margin no offense to other nw mains. Also,

Dd beats Martian
Superman Martian is not a 5-5
Ds mmh is not a 5-5
Sinestro is cheap
Bane is overrated

I am not the ares mod so I am not entitled to long discussions, I tried that and the west coast shut me down so I gave up. Defer to The gabriel or yourself so the illuminati can sleep better. Nor am I the best player, this thread shows that definitively. So my opinion means nothing.
West Coast shut you down? I'm not even sure what that means. What I see is someone asking why you have that number, and you respond with "ds cant jump because of ares d2" and "if I knock him down well that's the end of that". How do you expect people to take you seriously with shit like that? Like if it's all trolling, fine, but the reason people don't take you serious has nothing to do with petty EC biases or Illuminati anything. More like you just have a bad way of conveying any points. No one is purposely trying to insult you (Because apparently if you question the constant trolling you get the insanely passive agressive responses we have been getting), but c'mon man no one knows if you're just talking bullshit or trying to discuss a matchup. The bad theory doesn't help.

When did he ask me why I have that number?

"Ares-Deathstroke 5-5 :confused:

Tell me how to beat King Hippo pls"

This does not imply "Hey why do you have the ares - ds MU as 5-5?"

So how am I to decipher this if it is trolling or not as you say. Because that could be taken as a troll.

Awesome post, Doom Bark. I pretty much agree with you completely. I don't think every single knockdown Bane can land will afford an opportunity to land a backdash-stuffing meaty though and that's where really knowing your options - limited as they may be - come into play.

I've been saying his oki is "best ever" status and the guessing game is heavily in his favor all along, but sometimes it only takes one or two right guesses to seal the victory for his opponent too. It's simply no more the case that you will lose your lifebar guaranteed off one knockdown if you have shit wakeups as it is that you'll be able to get up every time if you know what options Bane has. It's somewhere in between the two and I have never denied that its leaning way more toward the "stay the fuck down" side of things.

It's just that this "I can't do anything waaaah" mentality isn't exactly true. Batgirl has a million ways to get you into a vortex and a million and one ways to mix you up out of it, but people acknowledge that it's a guess and they have a chance. Same with Sinestro and so forth. Bane's oki is right up there with those in that chances are Bane will guess right way more often, but you CAN still get out if you make the read instead, and certain characters can play their game again if they do.

It only doesn't matter when you're Catwoman since getting out gets you nowhere special anyway lol.
Pretty much what I'm saying is that them guessing with a 75% chance of being wrong isn't exactly something to write home about.

Just to Clear one thing up. Im pretty sure i have not said Bane's Oki is bad. Its really good. Like yes he does have options to cover pretty much every option the opponent is going to use. But its up to the player to pick the right choice. On both ends. If i had Said his Oki is bad then i fucked up. My bad. But yes Bane has a Great Oki Just like a good amount of the cast does. But because of Banes Armor it gives me more options for less bar.
Yours was specifically the "saying he has no options" concerned Lex.

My rant was not even directed at lex. It was just in general.

I'll give you Aquaman (Theo). But I have seen Arma beat Jupiter more than once. Who is playing the GL MU? I would think that Batman's zoning could keep him in check, and using B13 must be insanely risky for GL: Batman can probably backdash and punish it with bats. According to Pig, Homelee does pretty well against both top Zod players. Maybe there is more to explore. You also do well against Raven.
The tournament score of Jupiter vs Arma is probably like 10-2 Jupiter. That matchup is hard for sure. GL zoning is actually better than Batman's, all the zoning trades are in GL's favor. Homelee probably would never beat Pig now

The biggest myth of all time

xbone > ps4 (said by many)(before both consoles where officially out)

Xbox one turned out to be microsoft's worst project and a huge amount of money lost for the company.
Have they added a recent player list by any chance? im curious

Nobody wrote home about it, though. I qualified that guesses being 75% in his favor (and again that's only when you get a knockdown that leads to a legit meaty set-up to begin with, so it's already somewhat inflated at that) are definitely better than your usual 50% mixups but also not as drastic as being 95% in his favor like some of these drama queens would have you believe.

I don't know how many times I have to reiterate that I'm simply trying to bring the good ol' JR levels of hysteria about Bane back down to reality, and fully acknowledging that said reality is him running train on oki like nobody's business. At least he loses twice as much momentum if you do guess right though compared to some of these vortex characters who can go high, low, fake overhead, instant cross-up, etc. all off the same set-up.
