What all would MK9's last patch include?

[16 Bit]

More characters that can compete the better IMO. Better than nerfing a character out of viability.

He will be fine.

Get on it, they usually dont do anything but it takes little to no time to sign it.
I think Sub Zero should have a bit more speed to his ice ball and be able to deal a bit more damage.

Shoutouts to scrubs suggesting changes for characters they don't even play or don't understand what they need.

 

[Linkuei82]

Konqr has one of the most reasonable and rational ideas. Some of the request listed is just switching character tier spots.

lol I agree. Some buff/nerf suggestions make me so angry. Kung lao players think he needs buffs? What's next? Cyrax players to suggest a damage buff? lol.

I really want to see a patch to happen. But deep down I'm also worried that it's gonna make things worse.

It's gonna make things worse if NRS implements 90% of changes posted here. Not like they wouldn't fuck up with their own changes either.

- take away Cyrax resets
- minimize or take out Kabal's NDC

these 2 stuff are serious stuff that are broken and not funny while existing in the game ....

all the rest of sugestions, let's see what people here bring on .....

kabal needs his ndc, if anything his iagb could be nerfed.

and kung lao could use a buff or 2 to make his rushdown legit and less gimmicky, even something as small as making his d3 6 frames or so would make his pressure a bit better.

 

[ryublaze]

Some buffs people are suggesting aren't really necessary. Just because a string is useless doesn't mean it has to be buffed.

 

[Chuckychuck]

1. Reboot armor properties on all characters
2. Touch up the really retarded normals like negative d4's and stuff
3. Either buff the cast or tone down dumb specials like shoulder, ex cartwheel, etc
4. Remove resets
5. Improve the online netcode

There shouldn't be any useless strings, but yeah most characters only need like 5 changes max to become either viable or balanced.

Nerf:
-Smoke and Cyrax resets
- Armor off of Lao's delayed 1 teleport
- Cooldown on Kabal's IAGB, no longer able to cancel EX dash.
- Kenshi's EX SC is no longer advantage, regular version is more punishable
- Sonya's cartwheel should be more negative.

Buff:
- Ermac EX tele is safe, his pokes aren't disadvantage on hit.
- Sub does more damage
- Kano's knives have less recovery
-Baraka's spin leads to a full combo
-Advantage is given on NW's grab
-Sindel gets armor on her cartwheel
-Shang's skulls are made faster (cancel advantage is adjusted accordingly) and SS bugs are fixed.

How about Shang actually having armor when he turns back into himself after the EN Soul Steal. He wouldn't just become a free punching bag at that moment, and that safety would cost a bar of meter, sounds fair to me!!

I'm surprised nobody said anything about the jacked wakeup system.
Nerfing the wakeup game will indirectly buff the strong oki characters like reptile

Scumbag smokeplayers downplaying an already top 10 character.

lol, read my posts about Smoke and get yoooo facts straight. I have never said he is outside of the top 10.

 

[187x]

Smokes also does not lead to a vortex with either free pressure or another combo attempt linked on at the end. And smoke has no low combo starter to go with his b2 starter. D4 gives good advantage to go for it but if Scorpions pokes were buffed I honestly think he would be able to compete with the higher tier characters. If you make b2 a mid then his overhead kick should probably be speed up as its fuzzy guard able without to much difficulty now.

If his pokes where better he will still suck. His whole game is either guess right or get punished. Safe b2 will make him viable. "if his pokes where better he could compete with the hightier chars." are you kidding me? He sucks because everything he has as good options are very punishable. Him having bad pokes is just a bonus

You know nothing about Cyrax then! He needs that armor!

Who are you to say that I don't know anything about Cyrax?
In the event that Cyrax and the other top fighters are nerfed, Johnny Cage could become the new #1 fighter in MK9.

That's possible I suppose. I really think as long as they got rid of those full screen frame traps he would be fine. Maybe add a bit more startup to either b2 or b3 as well, they are both 11 frames and are both a low and an overhead. That's a little messed up, reacting to it is pretty rough.

Freddy Krueger's B2 and B3 are 17 frames, not eleven.

I'm confused, did NRS say they'd consider releasing a final patch at evo or this thread more wishful thinking?

Alien Substance no adding Kratos to XBOX version so he can be tournament legal? I am disappointed.

Be disappointed in Sony, not me, you fool.

Sony would never allow Kratos to be ported into the Xbox version. Just because Kratos is in certain versions of MK9, does not mean NRS can port him over without their permission.

 

[Prinz]

Alien Substance please, don't insult me unless you have a reason.

 

[Element_]

Sektor: Armor on EX telepunch

Cyrax-Smoke: Resets no more

NightWolf: F3 hits low

Jade: U3 cannot be ducked , Shadow glow makes Kenshi's spirit charge miss

Shang: Fireballs faster...cannot trade at all i find

DLC: Tanya enters the scene

 

[BlaqandMild15]

Why are people saying unban kratos? Do we really need a patch for that to happen?:/

Oh i forgot , Kratos remains banned.....50-60 % damage off a parry is ridiculous!

Oh my bad.Im on xbox.Never fought a competent kratos out of the very few I've ever fought.He can't be as ridiculous as everyone else can he?And I mean top 5.

 

[CURBOLICOUS]

STOP

 

[Alien Substance]

Alien Substance please, don't insult me unless you have a reason.

Reason: get your information straight about Sony-owned characters appearing on Microsoft consoles.

"Fool" is a light, mostly playful remark in my books, but I understand the concept of different strokes for different folks. I'm sorry, Prinz.

Oh i forgot , Kratos remains banned.....50-60 % damage off a parry is ridiculous!

Actually, the highest he gets off of a parry is just under 50%, meterless. Without a parry, this BnB combo would deal under 60%.

Now, with a bar of meter and no parry, he does get an easy 60% combo.

Oh my bad.Im on xbox.Never fought a competent kratos out of the very few I've ever fought.He can't be as ridiculous as everyone else can he?And I mean top 5.

Kratos is certainly not top five, but he can be quite powerful when you know the capabilities of Kratos, your opponent's character, and your opponent.

Why are people saying unban kratos? Do we really need a patch for that to happen?:/

I don't know.

Nope.

Johnny Cage's F3 should hit fullscreen in a similar fashion to Baraka's EX Blade Charge.

LOL at making his D3 6 frames (it's 9 now) being a something "small." Lao has a 7 frame jab and a 6 frame spin. His design does not require a 6 frame D3 that would make that move the fastest D3 in the game with Cyber Sub. Imagine the guessing game on whether you should poke out or not after every 21 on block when he has a 6 frame D3 that would beat all of your moves if he opts to check you with a poke after a block string. Kung Lao doesn't need any buffs. Also, what about his pressure would you consider "gimmicky"? I feel like people just start throwing words around here sometimes...
