DID any performance at COMBOBREAKER 2019 changes you opinion of a certain character or match up?
I know for me BioHazard's Kano and Kombat's Raiden were standouts. I also was pleasantly surprised to see so many Jade mains and surprised not to see any Kollectors.
I also thought i'll see more Skarlets and Kabals...

are Biohazard and Semji outliers? or are characters like Kano , Raiden and Kitana flying under the radar?

 

[CrimsonShadow]

Poor Jax

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

Kombat's Raiden was by far the most exciting thing in the tournament.

If only he didn't choke vs Dragon. D:

 

[Marlow]

are Biohazard and Semji outliers? or are characters like Kano , Raiden and Kitana flying under the radar?

Yes to both.

I think what it shows is that while some characters might be lower tier than others, at the end of the day it's still about outplaying the opponent.

 

[nightcrawlers]

Kombat's Raiden was by far the most exciting thing in the tournament.

If only he didn't choke vs Dragon. D:

Foxy’s Kung Lao was hype
Sonic’s Skarlet was pretty sweet
Baraka was pretty exciting all weekend as well

 

[Sazbak]

What is the number between parantheses?

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

Foxy’s Kung Lao was hype
Sonic’s Skarlet was pretty sweet
Baraka was pretty exciting all weekend as well

Foxy's lao was hype for sure. But I liked Raiden better.

Sonic... meh.

Baraka... meh.

 

[Onilordasmodeus]

Kombat's Raiden was by far the most exciting thing in the tournament.

If only he didn't choke vs Dragon. D:

Sad to say, but yeah he choked. He had the winning combo like 2 or 3 times. If only he mained that character.

 

[Marlow]

I wonder what an actual realistic character distribution would or should look like. Expecting a perfect, equal distribution of use of all characters is obviously a poor expectation, since there will always be characters who are considered stronger, and people are simply going to play that character more often, especially top players competing for money, so the odds of an even distribution are always going to be low.

 

[FlawlessVictory127]

What is the number between parantheses?

Indicates the amount of times that the character was used as a secondary.

So for Raiden, HeroKillerStain used him as his main, while Kombat used him as his secondary.

 

[nightcrawlers]

Foxy's lao was hype for sure. But I liked Raiden better.

Sonic... meh.

Baraka... meh.

Hard man to please

 

[Matix218]

So Johnny Cage is not even in the top 96 in a 25 character game? Kappa

 

[stokedAF]

I saw a Shao Kahn player! He got one round out of the set!

 

[-Nachtmahr-]

No Jax mains? What?

 

[SaltShaker]

Indicates the amount of times that the character was used as a secondary.

So for Raiden, HeroKillerStain used him as his main, while Kombat used him as his secondary.

So that means not accounting for the 15 unknown, Geras was used in 16% of the matches. So much for the "no one used him" argument lol.

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

No Jax mains? What?

He's currently a bit underrated I think, but he also gets zoned out pretty well. And with characters like Cetrion, Sonya, and Jade littering the field, I'm not surprised.

 

[UsedForGlue]

Its funny how the placement of characters in this list is basically a good order of how strong they are.

Except Sonya and maybe Jade, the Jade players were just excellent and gave some characters super bad MU’s. So Jade is the exception.

 

[-Nachtmahr-]

Ppl should finally get used to grinnin' jax.... it is not hard to absorb projectiles or to duck and weave under them, but they never want to let go of the command grab even if they only use it like 2x in a match

 

[Juggs]

What are the parentheses for?

 

[Deleted member 35141]

Wow my main and co main at a big whopping 0.

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

Ppl should finally get used to grinnin' jax.... it is not hard to absorb projectiles or to duck and weave under them, but they never want to let go of the command grab even if they only use it like 2x in a match

I won't play Grinnin' Barrett because I'm not trying to do dash d12 dash d12 to get damage.

 

[Lum@na]

Only 5 characters may not have had a main make top 96 - Jax, Johnny, Shao, Dvorah, and Kotal. Only surprised by Jax on that list. Good diversity, though not great. I think Jade's and Liu Kangs numbers are the only one I am surprised by. Would have thought we'd see more LK than Jade.

 

[LaidbackOne]

Ppl should finally get used to grinnin' jax.... it is not hard to absorb projectiles or to duck and weave under them, but they never want to let go of the command grab even if they only use it like 2x in a match

Which should be about 50% of your health. Good trade imo.

 

[Megax Rocker]

Poor Kotal...

 

[CrimsonShadow]

So that means not accounting for the 15 unknown, Geras was used in 16% of the matches. So much for the "no one used him" argument lol.

But also so much for the "everyone used him" argument
