Fool, please.

If someone had asked for full screen frame traps, half of this community would have gone insane. But 50/50 mix ups are apparently acceptable to many people.
Please. If you are going to attribute some complaints to entire community, at least read into what most people actually complained about. The main issue wasn't existence of 50/50, but their safety and lack of setup requirement that made them into to-go option with massive disregard for anything else in many cases. Their resulting prominence is what prompted people to complain about "50/50 everywhere", and not that everybody just had them or something.
It was actually addressed already and explained that one of the option of most MKX mixups is punishable - something that amends most of complaints about IGAU mixups, but of course you choose to ignore it, preferring to go for easy picking on wording in another post.

Complains about "fullscreen frametraps" and other zoning assets you like to bring up have the very same reasoning behind them - in NRS games they are generally very safe if done from proper (rather generous) range, so even if attacker messes up, most of the cast often cannot capitalize in any meaningful way on that, just as it's impossible to punish safe 50/50 in respective case.

That is, if we ignore people who whine for the sake of it. Eff them.

Spammer. Crouch walk hater.
If it's just a taunt, why was that variation considered so good that it only required 1 extra move ?
 
First thing first, what does it even do besides making funny noises?
That's why I think it needs to build meter to be useful. It recovers quick, it might be a bait to look like missiles but you recover quicker and punish? Or if it builds meter I'm fine with it... I think.

yes except flipkick which iirc is DB4
hey man would really appreciate it if you could go a little more in depth for reptile. For example I'm dying to know what his ex dash does. Also what are the specific properties of his variations (invisibility, stank) thanks

Can you please tell us what online features and modes of play there are? Besides the (imo) gimmicky addition of factions, is there anything new?

Understood that the online features/modes may not be up and running so that you may not actually be able to play them. So just asking what is there (rather than how good it is).

Yeah, PUNISHABLE 50/50s are fine and completely fair. Full screen frame traps that are safe and render the opponent helpless are not. Don't know why its so hard for you to understand this.

Under the online menu there are the following features:

Rooms
Versus(pvp ranked, unranked, private), Test your luck and Practice
Team battle(Faction match, ranked, unranked, private)
King of the Hill(classic and survivor)
Tower Battle
Leaderboards etc

I havent tried anything about the online portion of the game yet. I tried to enter a room and inside there were only default WB accounts. Probably some press guys playing the game for reviews.

Yes, no idea but probably not
she has a mini dash punch in F2, 14f startup, 0 on block, 20 on whiff and a nice 6f jab
variations just add to the base of the character, never affect base move frame data or damage IIRC.
1 is 6f but 2 is 5f I believe.....
She has an awesome b2,1,2 string.
