Worst match-up in the game?

[EGP Wonder_Chef]

I think Superman vs Ares is very possibly the worst matchup in the game.

What about Ares vs Superman?

Trait then F23~Breath infinite.

That crap is a myth.

 

[Stepwood]

Ares vs Supes is a solid contender for the title. What about Bane vs Bats and HG vs DS?

 

[LEGEND]

Sinestro v Lex

Superman v GA

Superman v Ares

Half the cast v Aquaman

#1 title goes to Flash v Bane

How do you get out when you're playing Ares against Superman? Before you look at the frame data and tell me to d1 go test that shit

 

[Stepwood]

Lex vs Cyborg/Sinestro

Alucard has done standing 1 consistently against me to get out of it.

Get hit...

 

[Compbros]

Get hit...

There actually is the option of just getting hit by breath.

 

[xXstealthflameXx]

Yup

Yup

Then there's the possibility that the Superman player is aware of this escape method and does MB Breath. D:

...READ THE TOPIC LOCATION DUMB ASS!

Mind your manners.

Zoidberg most likely knew of the topic location, hence the colored text here:

Probably nothing as bad as Jade vs. Kenshi in MK9.

That's the game. You think your opponent is gonna do something and try to counter it, your opponent reads it and punishes your counter. It's how fighting games work.

I am aware of that. I've had to learn about that yomi stuff while playing as Kratos in MK9.

Anyway....I do not have the proper experience to have an educated opinion on which match-up is the worst in the game.

If I had to say something, I would say Shazam vs Black Adam or Superman.

 

[Compbros]

Ah, my fault. People have actually come with things like that and been completely serious negating that the players themselves play a role and if you got outread then that's on you.

Alucard has done standing 1 consistently against me to get out of it.

If he's beating the f2 clean with stand 1 that's an execution issue on Superman's part.

And of course you can get hit with breath(I mentioned it early in this thread, and I don't care to get into technicalities about whether getting out by getting hit makes something not a block infinite) but that plays right into the topic of this thread - it's an awful match up when your best option is to take a hit intentionally while most of the cast has options like poking or dashing out.

 

[Ecodus]

I think that Cat Woman vs. Aquaman is right up there.

Can Ares MB b3 out?

Sinestro v Lex

Superman v GA

Lol, Aquaman vs rest of the cast.. seriously though why does his super connect on block.. dumb. He already has plenty of tools.

Lex or Hawk vs DS is pretty rough.

 

[xXstealthflameXx]

Huh??

 

[Alien Substance]

Aquaman's Super is an overhead: it cannot be blocked by crouching.

Yeah that's what I thought...he just said connect on block and I was like whaaaaat

 

[4x4lo8o]

Can Ares MB b3 out?

No, but he can MB f3. In general MB f3 is the best way out. The discussion started with the mention of Superman popping trait and doing the f23~block infinite, so armor wasn't really playing into it

 

[fr stack]

grundy vs superman, grundy vs black adam , grundy vs hawkgirl and grundy vs cyborg are all bad matches

What execution error can be had from F23 Breath, F23? He's beaten it nearly everytime I've done it to him and we're talking 30+ matches (though I'm not heavy into using F23 breath, F23).
