Question - Sub-Zero Got the game early, q&a about Subzero moveset etc(no story spoilers)

[Repulsar]

Also i tried to play online today and i cant find any matches. The thing that they were talking about the player cards that they will give you bonuses etc is that, each customizable feature in your card, grands you with exp,faction exp, koins bonuses. You can also select specific sets of icons, borders etc in order to gain even more total bonuses. Very nice feature that doesnt affect gameplay.

Can you tell us what's special about Jax's "gotcha grab"?

from the looks of it once you have them it gives you some options on what you want to do with them.

You should check Scar's thread. He has it all in the OP

It can be canceled after the freeze for a combo

Sweet, that could be rendered useful for executing a higher dmg combo that has better potential of pushing your opponent to the corner, or even just repositioning if youre the one closest to a corner.

Im skeptical now about using his xray at all since imo its not as great as it was in mk9, I'd rather save my meter for breaker or an ex slide or ice ball.

Especially ex ice ball since that will be the greatest tool for getting in on zoners or using its armor in a bait set up to pull off some dmg

 

[Rafiki]

i'll have to test that in a few

Please do, thank you!

Can Sonya cancel her normals into parry?

What kind of advantage can JCage get off of His stunt doubles? How late can he cancel a normal from a string into a stunt double and start a new string? If this is possible what are the options where this creates true block strings or frame traps ~4 frames so there is no effective counter?

The more to do and strive for the better. NRS has really gone all out with all the features that they've tweaked and/or added.

Sonya's parry, is it fine? Got beat out on startup several times on stream.

 

[REYTHEGREAT]

Not sure if this been asked already but can someone tell me how punishable is raiden and kung laos teleport? I got a feeling theres going to be a lot of teleporting with these two.

I'm sorry if this has been covered already, but this thread is huge. Has anyone taken a look at Quan-chi's frame data?

@Repulsar
Is it possible to throw ice balls from behind your own klone? will they continue past your own klone?

if so that would make him a great zoner as well and would be a great way for safe meter building since klones can take up to one projectile, it would be tough for your opponent to decide when to throw a projectile knowing it wont make contact with you while being pressured by your ice balls

@Repulsar @Qwark28

Quick question about sub zero, it was said somewhere before that he could perform double freeze combos, is this true?

It might be something specific to grandmaster, so like a clone and an ice ball can be used in one combo but not 2 ice balls, thanks!

Literally on the past page...

On the video I saw, after the ranked match it says "Do you want to continue searching?" Or something like that. No more pressing ranked again over and over, just press X/A once to keep searching.

Which isn't that different from just hitting x/a once to jump back into the ranked search =P

But it doesn't boot you back to the menu lol.

Ohhhhh nice. So it's really quick then. That's cool.

@Qwark28 @Repulsar Could you please answer a Takeda question for me? I was wondering how the disjointed hitboxes of his whip normals interact with parries and Ice Clone. If he hits a ice-clone with a whip normal, but no part of his body touches the clone, does it still freeze him? Can his whip normals be parried by Kano and Sonya? Thanks!

 

[jrock920]

@Repulsar does erron black have good combo potential?

 

[ProudDisciple]

I hope he does but I think he might be more set up oriented.

This is a crucial question.

me too but if he doesn't im going to love zoning noobs all day every day

(From Repulsar on the previous page .-.)
Damn i just noticed something for Grandmaster variation. If you make a klone and then use ice burst on it you break the clone and the pieces that shatter away are damaging the opponent from a solid distance!

EDIT: 12% damage btw
EDIT 2: You can create a very good amount of pressure with this. You can cancel a string into ice klone and then break it from upclose if the opponent tries to counter attack.

Ice Ball =/= Ice Burst
