You've gotta be careful with a post like this because a lot of people cry lag when they lose an online match, no matter the reason. That being said, any character with fast movement and/or mix-ups and strings is difficult to face online. Kung Lao and Raiden are awesome characters regardless of lag. I wouldn't say it makes them godlike.
I mostly agree, but I'd say kung is probably top tier or god tier in lag. Also, Johnny Cage's frame traps are pretty insane with lag.God Tier:
Raiden
Top Tier:
Scorpion, Ermac, Kenshi, Nightwolf, Liu Kang, Skarlet, Noob, Smoke, Kano
Mid Tier:
Kung Lao, Reptile, Johnny Cage, Sub-Zero, Kitana, Mileena
Low Tier:
Everyone else
That's pretty much lag tier.
I don't know if Kano should rank that high in a "lag-tier" list. The timing on his kombos is so strict that even a small amount of lag can render them unusable. He's not really a kombo-oriented character, but lag can still kill his punishment potential.God Tier:
Raiden
Top Tier:
Scorpion, Ermac, Kenshi, Nightwolf, Kung Lao, Liu Kang, Skarlet, Noob, Smoke, Kano
Mid Tier:
Reptile, Johnny Cage, Sub-Zero, Kitana, Mileena
Low Tier:
Everyone else
That's pretty much lag tier.
yea i agree, and we wont mention Kabal in lag lol
You know it...
What are you talking about??
Do you need me to spell it out?
Why dont you stop being such a jackass about it. No need to get hostile...
I just don't want god characters getting nerfed because a few people think they're overpowered online. If I'm a jackaas for someone not being able to read a clear obvious statement than a proud jackass I am.
Noted. NRS is not going to nerf characters because of one thread, especially this insignificant. And when do NRS listen to the minority? Every little change they make so far has been embraced by the public majority. Why dont you stop being hostile? This is a chill environment, take your anger issues elsewhere if this thread displeases you. Ta-ta.I just don't want god characters getting nerfed because a few people think they're overpowered online. If I'm a jackaas for someone not being able to read a clear obvious statement than a proud jackass I am.
No, this thread is not going to become that :facepalm:
Dude, wtf.. just wtfI just don't want god characters getting nerfed because a few people think they're overpowered online. If I'm a jackaas for someone not being able to read a clear obvious statement than a proud jackass I am.
Agreed, both Kung Lao and Raiden are my nemesis online, they are very good and have good and fast mix ups. Both should be god tier in this specific tier list.
Cool story bro. Kung Lao's spin WAS OP.
This never happens to me
They are probably blocking low and high at the same time by quickly pressing up and down. Works for me when I'm unsure as to where the next hit is going to be.
Happens to me often. When I play as sub zero, my slide wiffs alot. I Slide at the opponent and they are not blocking, yet it doesn't hit them. They literally slide back along with subs slide. Hilarious.
