Plus on block.
I think corner game is going to be weak in general in MKX due to the fact that some stages(and every one shown thus far) will let you jump off the corner walls and to safety.

He can detonate his clone, so I guess that can make enemies think before approaching it too closely.

I wonder if the jump distance will be the same for each character. If so, great place to leave a clone (if using Grand Master).

Yeah. It's pretty much similar to Johnny Cage's X Ray where if you're close enough, anything will get parried.

So far we all think his X-Ray is a parry, like Cage in MK9. Cage's X-Ray used to parry everything if the opponent was close enough, including projectiles and even Sub-Zero's clone.
So that's probably how he parried the interactable.

Another wild explanation is that his X-Ray while charged freezes opponents while they are close, like his move in MK: DA. But I doubt it.

Yeah, I just remembered how JC X-Ray worked on MK9! Thanks for the reply anyway! :)

I quite like his new look actually, not sure if I'll main him but it'll be worth a look at how he plays so I know who to counterpick him with :DOGE

To be honest jumping off a interactable looks kind of slow to me,so you won't need to really react to anything.If your not really pressing any buttons,walking back and forward around there foostie range,you could easily run and get a full combo punish from them just trying to get away.


And no I don't think interactable will make his corner game messy.....only stronger.

I'm curious as to the usefullness of the ice clone now that it is confirmed to be throwable by BOTH characters... wouldnt this mean it would be a terrible wake up option? As an opponent you could simply pressure SZ on wake up and just grab the clone as he trys to make space...

Also wouldnt jailing in the corner be difficult as well? Oh... you put a clone in front of me? Here let me just throw it at you....

The opponent can't throw non-ex clones.

Dat over head hammer looks like it has some good range on it.

The purpose for the clone in MK9 was to bait your opponent into a clone so the same principle applies here unless certain game mechanics allow you to push your opponent into one, Kinda void until release :)
