Also, can we discuss something?

During Sonic vs King, PL mentioned how cyrax LOSES to mileena. When i asked why and how, that main topics were how mils d4 is too much for him, cyrax cant open his chest, and mil has more victories over cyrax in tourney.

If we are going by that logic, then Kitana beat Kabal because she has a better footsie game than him, he cant use buzzsaw, and she has more victories over him in tourney.

THIS IS NOT A BLOW UP IN ANY KIND TO PL! I just thought this was very interesting and needed to be talked about.

btw i dont think kitana beats kabal at all and i dont think mileena beats cyrax

Three Reptiles in top 8. That's awesome. Definitely in the top ten conversation.

I don't think anyone beats cyrax he's the best character in the game

Are ya' ready for MK11 kids?!
No disrespect to Fox, but I'm seriously scratching my head wondering how the fuck King managed to pick all those characters before Kenshi against Mileena lol. It's not like he's a rookie Kenshi either.

In all honesty there are some things that do make the Mileena matchup awkward for Cyrax, and he has to punish Telekick/Roll in a very makeshift way (and I bet when I get the chance to watch the archives I'll see a LOT of botched punishes lol). That said, I remember back at one of the MLG arena events when everybody was dedicated to MK, DJT made mince meat out of Pig's Mileena and made him switch to Kenshi (who he eventually won the set with), so it's probably rust if anything. But in the hands of a Cyrax main who's not out of practice, yeah, Cyrax should win that matchup.

You know, I made that argument once. Basically, I asked that, besides Kenshi and Kabal being in the game, what stopped Cyrax from being the best character in the game?

I was told that Cyrax loses to rush down characters and zoning characters. Which roughly translates to any character that can do something.

Yeah that was MLG Arena, in Summer of 2012. Pig was down 2-0 then switched to Kenshi and won three straight.

As far as Cyrax's punish on Mileena it should be standing 1~ex bomb, for about 42% every time. Not too shabby.
