My mind is being blown listening to this podcast. This patch has absolutely made a majority of the cast more viable. I am seriously wondering why people are sticking to the arbitrary discussion of who is top 3, or top 5 etc. Reading the system notes and character changes, I would not be surprised to see some of the most diverse top 8's and top 16's in fighting game history. Injustice doesn't have a top 3, or a top 5, in reality it has a top 15.

You guys were a little off with the KF parry change.

When KF MB parried an armored move, the opponent would retain armor during the freeze but it wouldn't drop the parry. So it gave her an extra unscaled hit in the combo. So, for example, you could do f3 which would be absorbed by the armor, then f3 into normal combo for an extra 11%,

It's definitely a nerf, but it hardly matters at all in the matchups where it tends to happen, so we've basically written it off as a nonissue.

Good job guys on getting this out faster. I agree mostly that this patch did a lot to valence out the characters.
I need to place in a tournament so I can get in on one of these.
What do you guys think about having a different guest every episode?
We might have to bring you on to shake things up

2 hours is a lot of time to invest in watching this. So someone let me know is there ample amount of mocking and ridiculing m2dave? Thats the deal breaker for me.

This mean you don't like me?
Hello guys, I just bought this game of justice of men. I'm a noob lol. If any Black Adam players want to play me on XBL my Gamertag is :Rickyraws but I'm busy and will only be playing from 10/1 onwards. I suck and it'll be free wins for you :D Remember, to get your free wins add the gamertag: Rickyraws and we can play! Lol I'm gonna get owned so hard but it'll be fun, tee hee hee!



See you on Tuesday! Remember to use Black Adam and prepare for your free wins.

great show as always guys,keep them coming. was just wondering if there was any chance of you doing a episode completely dedicated to the science of low gunshots? I believe this is a category that warrants it's own episode as I feel it hasn't been discussed enough.

What is going on guys, Ya Boi Zyphox here.
General M2Dave please don't ever say something about what flash players should do, first of all sonic pound when done in a combo do NOT end in a hard knockdown, am 3 months ahead of you, instead end in 32. 2nd stop quote Jr when it comes to flash, just like you wouldn't for all the other character he plays, know one knows the character like i do. i don't care about his d2 nerf or slight damage nerf, i care about the neglect of his mids, specifically the b22f3 whiffing on characters and standing 2 or 11 whiffing. they fixed ares and other character mids but no the flash's? that's all i want is to hit some one with a mid, if they would have made LC MB always hit mid that would be cool but not necessary. hopefully this saturday i can prove that i am a top flash player or if not have to wait till NEC to do so.

I'm sincerely hoping there's a jr vs zyphox tourney match for all hype purposes

***calls rigging agents now to get the job done

:)

What time is the tourney? Kombat network?

You will BOW to me!
60%. My main needlessly butchered instead of normalised, my secondary only getting a crowbar buff which is important but only a part of what Joker needs and the top tiers got no true nerfs ( MMH/Aqua/WW )
Cry me an ocean Bitch Adam. Lvl up.

Ok, seriously, why are @AK Pig Of The Hut and REO giving @General M2Dave such a hard time for being fair! The guy is trying to be consistent in his approach towards assessing the changes NRS is making to the game and he deserves props for that. In all fairness, Black Adam did get nerfed excessively. There was no need to nerf his Dive Kick AND damage output AND trait AND backwards and forwards dashing AND Lightning Strike. Any 2-3 out of those 5 would be good, but all 5 is too much. Other than that though, I believe the changes in the patch will go a long way towards making Injustice a better game. Overall, good job NRS.
