Worst move for your character

I have to agree with you %100 there, Blake. I'd also like to include BM's d1 in the conversation- its range is horrendous and doesn't lead into much of anything extremely worthwhile on block or hit.

Regarding AM, I can only imagine his standing 1 being somewhat useless simply because d1 is superior in many ways. Even then, 1123 is a solid string in its own right.
D1 xx trait is pretty decent.

I also think that scatter bombs are pretty bad.

I'd have to say Batman's 1 2 2 string. Hella negative on block and has absolutely no purpose to any Batman player's strategy.

A close second would be his slide (if we're including special moves), which leaves him at such disadvantage on hit that some characters get a free punish on Wake-Up. Absurd.
Who punishes it?

Doomsday's Supernova. No explanation is needed as to why it's his worst special move.

If we're talking strings, his 2,2,1+3 is his worst because you can interrupt the last part provided you're aware of being able to do so.
You get a mix up between 2,2,1+3 and 2,2 xx ES.

I think this is the first time such a statement has ever been said.

I'll toss Bolt of Zeus into the mix.
 
Deathstroke's worst move, and one of the worst projectiles in the game, is low gunshots.

- very unsafe on block (-23 on regular version and -18 on MB version)
- limited damage (only 6% on hit)
- limited chip damage (only 1.38%)
oh alright, so you can take my sweep away as ds, and take away your low gunshots we'll see who does better dave.
 
BM's sweep finds its value as a cool reset option after mb grapple. Otherwise, it's a fairly useless normal too, lol.

When you say "very close neutral situations" you have to take that very literally, his d1 is only guaranteed to hit the opponent if the characters are standing as close to each other as possible. Lastly, it has a 7f startup, not 6 :(
i meant it literally, sorry for being a scrub on frame data

What's the point of a random Krypt?
Is it my idea or are there less useless moves in Injustice compared to MK9? Shit like Millena's B2 or Cyrax's U3 (Or was it U4, so useless I don't even remember) are not that common in Injustice, right?

BLAK FELOW
Sinestro's impact event (boulder) is one of the worst special moves in the game. It is mega punishable on block, has shitty tracking, and can be forward dashed for a full combo punish. Even in the MUs where it's semi useful to control the air (Superman, HG), there are plenty of ways for them to mess with the tracking and punish Sinestro severely. It also leads to very little damage on hit. This move sucks.
Omg

To stick with bits post
Are you telling me you've never hit a character outside of SM, and HW with a boulder? You've never used it to chip someone out the end of a round, to knock someone out of the sky when they try to go for an interactable or dodge one, to get a knockdown on characters like cyborg or zod? To bait someone into moving and punishing with trait?
