anyone got any tips for the batgirl/MMH matchup i feel scared to trait or zod ball or jump plz help :p
Shoot side arm once or twice, bait the teleport with a whiffed standing 1, punish. Don't Zodball against either of them. The recovery on Zodball is so slow that they can reaction teleport while the ball hasn't even left your rifle.

I honestly barely bother with Zodballs anymore. The recovery on them is so craptastic.
They're great so long as the character you're playing against doesn't have a teleport or a fast/armored advancing move like Doomsday shoulder. I'm finding relative success with ending combos with 3 xx slow zodball as well.

How do you counter his WC shenanigans then? Back dash?
listen you HAVE to realize your back dash and back jump

All you do in the mu is interactables, jump back slow ball x 10000, Trait gives you 15% dmg chip guaranteed interactables not included

This is ALL you do

Also b3 mb his holes


ZC out of corner

Cool, i ll give it a shot. I played vs Hidan's Grundy yesterday and he bodied me. Once he gets his chip dmg reduction up from his trait, it becomes a bit hard for Zod. I am starting to get used of Zod now. Btw i did what you said in the Shazam and CW MU's and they seem much easier now. Thnx for the feedback.

Best way to beat Sinestro is to stay in mid range and use Zod charge as a threat against him. Trying to outzone Sinestro is a losing proposition for anyone.

If you absolutely must have a counter character, I'd use Doomsday

Absolutely not

Dd sinestro is 5-5

Go Aquaman all the way it's a 7-3 mu

Aren't you the same guy who made a post about how many tournaments DD won? And the number was substantial?
Yea but we've all grown up from that and DD is a character that seemed top 5 at launch but now tht people figured out what to do vs him the story has changed

If today was April 20th I'd say pick up DD

Today is oct. 10, so I say pick aqua

All I know is that zod is a thinking long range man who has to be careful. He asked for a counter character to
zod. Doomsday seemed to fit the bill

I swear we get this question every other day. Pig says 5-5, and as far as Sinestro/Zod goes, he'd be the one to defer to

I was of the opinion that Pig thought it was in Sinestro's favor? If I know Pig right, he wouldn't put it as more than 6-4 to sinestro though, but you say he has said 5-5?

The main mu's that are giving me trouble are Sinestro, Black Adam, Bane, and Shazam. Honestly most of those feel like I'm just not comfortable in the match yet. Esp Bane. Granted I only played one set against a competent Sinestro it just felt bad. Like holy smokes
