The difference is Liu Kang,johnny cage and Nightwolf have to burn meter and they only get one hit for it. Its almost useless unless it puts the opponent in the corner. You give Subzero armor on his EX freeze and its basically a free freeze on any jump in attack, and then the combo after it. Armor on his EX iceball would not be a small buff, it would be huge. Its risky enough as it is jumping at subzero because of the ice clone, but at least Sub has to react quick to avoid the ice clone breaking on proximity. If he had armor on his EX ice ball he could not be jumped at ever if he has a bar of meter. And for the full combo you get afterwards, no Sub would hesitate in using that meter.
You cant jump over Kung Lao because of that spin. Or Baraka, but his spin sucks. And it could just be projectile armour anyway.
Armor on Ex freeze and it's basically a free freeze on any jump in attack on Sub.
Nice use of Ctrl C and Ctrl V. Good to also know you read my full post. I said that it could also be PROJECTILE armour, which means jump in happen.
What he was saying was that it (if it had Armor-property) would basically be a Free Freeze on jump-in attacks on Sub, not that Sub was jumping on Kung Lao or Baraka.
He was saying that it would make sub zero impossible to jump in on. I was saying that you cant do that on Kung Lao or Baraka anyway so its not new. And again, I suggested that It would be projectile armour. Which means that it blocks only... projectiles. A jump in punch aint a projectile. Last time I checked anyway.
That is correct.
Only if we get your block strings too.
Not if you're Tom Brady and are dropping him for Kung Lao for Evo because Sub has "match-up issues".
Keep "thinking" what? Tom has mentioned that he doesn't want to get stuck in a match-up situation at EVO if he played as Sub. He's said this more than once - on stream. This is why he will be using Kung Lao in the tournament that he "really wants to win". What's your issue with that?
I like this guy.
Ice puddle is a worthless move aside from a few sneaky reset setups. And he doesnt need it to win anyway. You guys do realize your asking for buffs to a top tier character right? Subzero isnt really a character you can buff without making him ridiculous. Anyone here remember Subzero from the MK9 demo?? Sooooooooo broken.Sub needs no buffs/fixes? Have you all forgotten ice puddle? Go ahead.... try it out then come back here and post
It's one thing to be able to win, it's a completely different thing for a fight to be such a ridiculous uphill battle that you might as well counterpick. Being zoned to death by someone who is great at it makes you realize sub needs a tool for zoners.
If noob's portals got a slight buff and it helped him out a great deal, imagine what a working ice puddle might do. I'd say remove the puddle and give him the ice rain from the old mk's.
Armor is too much though : /
