I do agree that NW isn't a top guy, I'm an oldschool gamer at heart been around the ballpark a while and played UMK3 much before the 360 came out, I've just been looking for more comp. In saying so that's not to say that there aren't any good Ermac's, Kano's, whoever else outthere outside of names of this site. 8)
I've always liked the lower guys in MK games, Fujin in MKA I'm a beast with online xbox live. In UMK3 I LOVE Cyrax, he's one guy I know for a fact nobody really knows how to use after seeing peeps online play him. I do however, he's one of those guys you need to work on and in most cases won't have a chance depending on the match up but I have won online against some higher tier guys like Kabal, Subby, Scorpion, Kitana etc. I use everything he has from bomb plainting, baiting, net tactics, charging with the 6 hit combo everything...most just pick him and shoot the net all day long...I win more times then not with him online, and I don't even have my own 360..yet. I play at my buds house for the time being.
NOT easy....lol let me tell ya to win with him
Tell ya one thing though Reptile, HSmoke, Subby, NW, Lao and Kabal almost everyone runs to online. I'm used to it though because I've played literally thousands of matches online via xbox MKD and MKA, and people always run to the top tiers to increase their chance of winning. Fact of fighters in general. :wink:
