What can zod do against certain matchups? Deathstroke, Batman, Superman, Black Adam, Grundy, etc. All of these give me a lot of trouble.

Zone grundy. Stay away from him at all costs. Black adam you have to make stay grounded. Do this by putting balls in the air. Black adam hates It when you do that. Batman its best you stay away from. Knock him down and then dull full charge lasers on him.Deathsroke is gonna make it hard yor you to call trait, so only try it from knockdowns when he cant sword flip you. Speaking of that respect his wakeups they are good. And superman... the thing that helped me here was remembering that pistol is faster than all supermans grounded zoning opions, and be careful in f2 range, again, try and stay away.and remember you can punish air lasers with pistol or zod charge.

This is weird and it is appearently the same for every character in the game, but I was practicing doing ji2 into rifle shots after d2 (for aa) and I noticed something that kind of pisses me off. If you connect with a move in the air and then press buttons (in this case I was trying to link kryptonian rifle) what ever you press while still in the air just dials in and comes out. Not that I mess up j2~kr offline that often, but when you do you will get a b1 or a gunshot depending which one you did (mid, slow, or fast). This is kinda bullshit cause online I fuck it up all the time and end up doing a move when I hit the ground and get blown up for it. Anyone else know about this or had similar problems?

For some reason I get D2's into like random Side Arms. It's annoying as hell.

Yep, this was another way I'd drop my combos. After a close Bite, I'd do Full Close Lazer Charge, NJ2 xx Slow Ball , J2 xx FastBall , 123 xx Ender. But online, I'd get NJ2 , land , SideArm. Then boom, half-health

Me too I really like the way he is designed. I like the four distances on his lasers, I like the gunshot. He has purple balls! And he fucking says kneel before zod everytime you throw, its like a free troll and badass at the same time.

I had similar problems. I noticed that inputs are messed up when you try to shortcut be pressing not down-back but down+back-back.
And yes, Zod isn't online friendly and it's too hard to do dash,j2~rifle after MB lasers and have to do dash, d2,j2~rifle or even worse -dash,b2,3...

I love Zod and I try my best to cope to his playstyle especially that he's a zoner but online pretty much forces me not to :(
i absolutely love the character design but for me it's not a online specific thing.i just think the character is very difficult to play at a decent level,even now I'm still figuring out his zoning.

Dont do that just play zod. He is awesome. I am learning mmh cause I think he is cool, plus I feel it will help me with laser zoning because alien pillar is the exact same as far as go.

Anyone know matchup tips against Nightwing? Seems like he can just shoot ground sparks all day and always finds a way to get in on me.
