Buddy I've seen Sonicfox make The Joker look ridiculous in his hands. He's the real deal. You give him a character and he will bore out tech and make fast reads with them and learn how to train his opponents into taking the wrong option vs his tools pretty fast. Just look at his tech vids and posts in other character boards here for a small example of what he is.

Sonicfox is legit. He's proven it often. Watch him play Skullgirls sometime if you want solid proof. His abilities and reads in it are amazing and that game is nothing like NRS stuff.

His natural ability to adapt and learn so fast vs opponents in any matchup are very real and deserving of the props they get.

Just for everyones FYI:
This game is very momentum based. Its footsies neutral game. Once your opponent gets the hit, its setplsy 50/50s. Almost everyones 50/50 is safe. I just made good reads this weekend. Sub-Zeros setplay is good in grandmaster and so are other chars like kung jin.

Catwoman was my main in Injustice! Horray. And congrats man. Your erron black made this forum explode! I do agree that Erron Black has OP tools but that wont stop me from playing as him. I didn't think he would feel like her but I guess that gives me a bigger reason to play as him. Once I saw his gameplay trailer, I knew who would be my main.

I was shocked as shit to see you pick Erron instead of Cassie or Mileena. Then, after watching you play for a bit, I saw why you picked him. You did some crazy stuff with him. Props to you, sir!

For the record...good tools and OP tools are different things. If you don't make some things good you make most things dull. ;)

@SonicFox5000 We all know its super early to tell, but who do you feel is the character that prevents the 50/50 setups the best? Is it Sub with his clones, or Erron with his tack things? lol

Scorpion's inferno variation and Erron Black's combo and set up game are both very scary. They are both equally scary to me. Its nature that people complain about the character from a player who wins a tournament. I noticed that Erron Black's throwing sand wake up move is an excellent combo starter. And if MIT respected that more, he would have had a lesser chance of losing. I noticed MIT kept getting caught into it. I saw it coming because SonicFox kept on doing it. They both played very well but SonicFox used Erron Black's good tools very well and they just have excellent openers.

[High Damage 40% combos that are midscreen with a recapture.] vs [Excellent set ups with combos that push you into a corner with caltrops you can throw to drain opponent health]

Who will win that fight?

42% for a bar aint all that. Kitana had a 54% for one bar.

What bothers me is that Lao has shit damage. 31% for one bar really? Buff that shit Nrs.

I noticed that most of the combos deal very tiny damage like around 20%. I tend to get impressed if the combo does like 29% but the ideal number is like around 30%. Not all combos are like that but it pains me that many combos I see even from competitive play do not accumulate higher than 20% or 30% for just one bar.

You know what you must be right. Going unbeaten since evo winning a shit load of tournaments doesn't count injustice is booty right? Hell look at sonic fox using horse shit erron black omg hes so fuckin broke, lucky he's gonna be nerfed right paulo?

You hit the nail on the head man. I'd way rather be a mud slinger hiding behind a key board making fun of a player much better than i'll ever be than have 7 and a half thousand fucking american dollars. Oh wait i wouldn't. Only a complete nob would do that wouldn't they :coffee:

While I think 30%~ for one bar is a bit low considering you're spending resources to increase your damage, I can't really complain with the overall damage from combos. It means matches have a much better potential to last longer.

The overall damage reduction across the board for MKX compared to MK9 is great in my opinion. No absurd chip, no 75% 1 bar combos (that we know of yet), etc.

Let it stay this way for all I care. If needed, buff the damage of some characters' combos that use meter to make them more in line with others.

Erron Black is so much fun. The way he works is by getting a knockdown, if you have NO meter, you have to hold a 50/50. No meter means no wakeups :)
Also dont worry about defebding me guys. Theres a reason why those who think they know everything about me stay behind there computer rather actually do sonething about it. Erron Black is a good but according to Tom and others, like 10 other characters 50/50s are better lol. Errons 50/50 leaves him minus and many characters can backdash or armor. They just all guessed wrong ;p
Erron isnt batgirl, batgirl gets 50/50s anywhere. Erron is more catwoman normals with a command throw lol
