You know me as RisingShieldBro online.
Did anyone even notice UB gets no meter for parrying projectiles?
Not really seeing your point. I said 3rd worst. Quan and Tremor are worse.Predator has the third worst wake up in the game?
Summoner and Sorcerer Quan have NONE and Quan is arguably top 3 for his toolset.
I watched @Pig Of The Hut vs Crosby87 the other night and pig can tell you how he felt after playing against him.
Honestly, I can't give you an answer on why my reputation for looking at NRS games is generally respected, that isn't up to me to decide. I do get challenged on my opinions a lot, and so I should, and I except to to be, I don't expect everyone to agree with it, that would be "foolish", wouldn't it? Although in one paragraph you say you don't question my knowledge, which you do, but you then go on to call it "bullshit" a few paragraphs down, so I don't know man.Tremor's move list was leaked almost three weeks before the official release. People identified one full screen unblockable attack, one short-ranged projectile, and three long-ranged projectiles as universal special moves. The logical assumption was Tremor was going to be a zoning character in some way, shape, or form, but unfortunately he fits no character archetype. The character is so abysmal players are still uncertain about the best way to use him.
Speaking of DLC, Predator is only two weeks older than Tremor in terms of the release date. You have apparently acquired adequate knowledge of Predator to presume he entirely invalidates Sub Zero in all variations while simultaneously you know that Tremor has potential in Crystalline. I actually do not question your knowledge, only your hypocrisy. You tell me I am wrong about Tremor, a character who is one week old, but you state that Sub Zero is invalidated by Predator, a character who is three weeks old.
I would also like to know how you keep a positive image with some of this bullshit that you post. Let us be serious here. If Tom Brady had created this thread, a lot of posts would have been malicious. If I had created a thread that claimed Kano is officially "dead" and invalidated by Predator, one person would suggest I commit suicide, at least three haters would demand I be excluded from the Kombat Tomb Podcast, and countless others would state I only want "broken" zoning.
Kung Lao can also do this with Buzz Saw.The issue with Liu is his fire balls on reflect or party allow him to recovery instantly. So he can actually chain them because for some reason parries and reflects give him on hit recovery instead of on block.
seriously though...what the fuck is that variation?Worst variation in the game? High tech Jacqui pls
Most people think he is decent at worst, the only people who don't are m2dave and his clan of goons.Tremor is for sure not bad like I have seen many say on this site lmao, shouldn't have to pull this card but play DJTs tremor and u tell me if he is a unviable character
It doesn't matter if he does, that's not the point. We are not crying about Predator, I say let him be for a while longer before "fixing him".Guys stop, Predator's getting nerfed lol
Oh they definitely will if they play him, trust me on thatAaaaand now hundreds of people will miraculously change their opinion on Tremor
no man pull that card all day if people refuse to believe show themTremor is for sure not bad like I have seen many say on this site lmao, shouldn't have to pull this card but play DJTs tremor and u tell me if he is a unviable character
He can detonate the trap, if he sees you aren't falling into it or are trying to jump over it.can't interact with clone like Sub Zero can.
you do know predator's d4 is punishable on block right? unlike subzero. secondly subzero's klone comes out instantly predator's doesn't there's also a huge recovery when done in the air. and unlike subzero if pred does it when ur doing a physical attack u don't get frozen or capture sooooo no just noHey.
When the game first came out (first week) I thought Unbreakable was the best variation for sub zero, as on paper it looked like this:
1. Takes no chip damage
2. Reduces all opponents damage by 13-25%, dropping 40% characters for a bar to 27%
3. Has a 50/50
4. Gains a 6 frame parry for no meter
At the beginning of the game, this has potential to work, but as we developed in the community along with the recent patches and no attention to Sub Zero, this no longer works and is arguably the worst variation in the game (next to Metallic).
The inclusion of Predator not only buries Unbreakable, but it also ruins Grand Master, making this character redundant already and in only a few months of the games life.
Here are my thoughts on this.
Part 1: Unbreakable
Part 2: Grand Master / Cryomancer
In my opinion, Sub Zero is dead, as Predator is in better in every way.
Unless Sub Zero is totally overhauled in the next patch on all three variations, he will be the first character to die as we inevitably push towards competitively killing off the cast except for the same top 3-5 characters at every event and the game suffers the same fate every single fighting game does, although MKX has the best chance of any game I've played yet, it has been solely down to the investment of the NRS staff as they try to keep their ear to the ground, hopefully they don't take the foot off the pedal just yet and don't listen to the "Sub Zero is fine" propaganda that everyone is buying currently, as this game is close to being a perfectly rounded game, and I hope they know it.
Every character should be viable, the variation system should work.
That's still not as useful as being able to throw or shatter the cloneHe can detonate the trap, if he sees you aren't falling into it or are trying to jump over it.
Not saying it is. Just pointing out that Predator can in fact interact with the trap.That's still not as useful as being able to throw or shatter the clone
Would you shut up already? You haven't made a single informative post in what seems like 2 years. All you do is complain complain and complain. At least you can take your BS elsewhere and not derail a thread for no reason.Tremor's move list was leaked almost three weeks before the official release. People identified one full screen unblockable attack, one short-ranged projectile, and three long-ranged projectiles as universal special moves.

Quan is not top 3.Predator has the third worst wake up in the game?

That's true and a good point. So clone has two interactions with it while Predator's trap only has one.He can detonate the trap, if he sees you aren't falling into it or are trying to jump over it.
As in HQT makes Kenshi worthless?I actually feel the same with HQT and Kenshi.
The Kenshi buffs made him go from 2nd worst in the game to mid tier so at the time it absolutely seemed like a god sendDon't bother. I'm well aware of why people think the match is bad, and I disagree. This thread isn't the place to discuss it, and to be honest I don't care that much because in time I will be proven right.
This community is habitually dead wrong about a lot of things tier wise and matchup wise, and there is mountains of evidence to support that since the game's release.
A prime example is Pig saying that Kenshi's buffs were a gift from the heavens, and EVERYONE in the f'ing community agreeing with him without even taking the time to assess the buffs for themselves.
7 weeks later, we have Pig in a Tremor thread saying that he "must have been drinking too much of the silly juice", because Balanced Kenshi is still garbage.
But if you go back to the day the buffs were announced, I stated in the Kenshi forum that they did nothing to address his problems as a character. Of course nobody listens because I'm not a known player. Such is life.
Just because everyone on TYM thinks something, does not mean it's even close to being true. Raiden vs GM Sub is not 7-3, not even close. If you believe that, then you don't know what a real 7-3 matchup actually looks like.
I feel that HQT does everything that Kenshi can do but better. Would be interested to hear your opinion on that though.As in HQT makes Kenshi worthless?
