Worst move for your character

[16 Bit]

What is your character's worst move? Post yours and maybe there can be some arguments explaining why it's not so bad.

I will say Catwoman's 2,d+2,3. In particular that list hit.

 

[GamerBlake90]

I'd have to say Batman's 1 2 2 string. Hella negative on block and has absolutely no purpose to any Batman player's strategy.

A close second would be his slide (if we're including special moves), which leaves him at such disadvantage on hit that some characters get a free punish on Wake-Up. Absurd.

 

[Filipino Man]

Up tiara or 3 in sword stance.

 

[BiPolarExxpress]

Banes f2. Long startup, hella negative, long ass recovery.

 

[Mikemetroid]

Grundy's 3,3

 

[MrSoloLobo]

Batgirl: db3, 2

 

[Clark L.]

Ba's f23

 

[Jaku2011]

Ravens f1 what does this move even do for me?

 

[Phased]

for green arrow, hurricane bow...does like 4% chip and it`s negative a kazillion on block.

now if only it did 15% chip and was safe on block and called trident rush instead

 

[Indecisive]

Shazams 12F3 and 12B3.

 

[Youphemism]

Batgirl: Bat evade 2. It just fucking sucks.
Wonder Woman: 223 string in Shield stance.

Up tiara or 3 in sword stance.

Nah 3 is good for setups in the corner.

 

[Doombawkz]

Bane's f.1. Only usable as a taunt.

 

[coolwhip]

Batman's "Tricky Bat" string (122) is pretty awful (super punishable despite offering no rewards) and absolutely useless. As in, I genuinely wonder why on earth it's in the game.

 

[KingJamez12]

GL 's MB Turbine Smash.

 

[Sage Leviathan]

Noob: f43. Slow, both hits are true highs I believe, meaning you can duck both without blocking.

KL: b1f1. Slow, builds good chip (but why use it when you have 21212?), good luck hit confirming into spin.

Sonya: the majority of her target combos imho, if I can borrow SF terminology. They aren't necessarily bad, but her other options work just fine, which render them useless by comparison.

 

[cR WoundCowboy]

Sinestro's impact event (boulder) is one of the worst special moves in the game. It is mega punishable on block, has shitty tracking, and can be forward dashed for a full combo punish. Even in the MUs where it's semi useful to control the air (Superman, HG), there are plenty of ways for them to mess with the tracking and punish Sinestro severely. It also leads to very little damage on hit. This move sucks.

Kung Lao's b1f1 is easily hit confirmable into spin.

 

[GGA Max]

Bane's standing 3
-7% not even 9% like some characters
-Not special cancel-able
-No range
-Long start-up
-Long whiff recovery
-Probably - on block
-No knockdown benefits, or benefits whatsoever

Thanks, been needing an excuse to downplay this move.

Its full combo punishable on block

Beat you to it, but I always approve of similar minds.

 

[Filipino Man]

Batgirl: Bat evade 2. It just fucking sucks.
Wonder Woman: 223 string in Shield stance.

Nah 3 is good for setups in the corner.

223 is godlike wtf are you talking about? Atleast it's overhead and you can cancel the 22. 3 just does nothing. That's like saying f123 it's bad. There is never point in 3.

Scatter bomb.

I have to agree with you %100 there, Blake. I'd also like to include BM's d1 in the conversation- its range is horrendous and doesn't lead into much of anything extremely worthwhile on block or hit.

Regarding AM, I can only imagine his standing 1 being somewhat useless simply because d1 is superior in many ways. Even then, 1123 is a solid string in its own right.

I'm shocked I forgot his D1...but that just goes to show you how useful it really is. Basically, not at all.

I think special recognition must be given to Lex's MB Gravity Mine

I mean, there are alot of bad and useless moves in this game, but few of them actually ask you to pay a bar of meter just for the privilege of using them. You are literally paying meter to make a meterless move WORSE.
