Spectral Ermac officially BANNED at Northwest Majors

[STB Shujinkydink]

It is with profound sadness that I have to announce that we have decided to ban Spectral Ermac from northwest majors unless patched or fixed. I apologize to the ermac players who trained hard for this event but we simply do not have the means to regulate this glitch. Hopefully this can get fixed before this weekend but until then he remains banned.

Smh, my boy Ermac gets the nerf treatment first. @MKF30

Im sure it's just the variation, so you should just ban that instead of the character.

not just SPECTRAL? strange.

Should be just Spectral.

ERMAC, getting hit with the NERF BAT, A.S.A.P.......Tournaments won't allow Ermac, but I could see the online warriors having a field day with all that Meter he builds....we will see

 

[Immortal Kombat]

The whole character? Why not just spectral?

Ah I didn't realize it was just one variation! I will edit!

well, outside of random xray you still have to be actually good to win with Spectral ermac. It's not like this solves all his problems.

Why not ban Mileena for here broken X-Ray? If that thing whiffs when it actually lands a hit, that is going to be one salty player. Also Kenshi can combo into his X-Ray and get unscaled damage from it.

First hit Ermac gets meter, breaks, can build that meter back before you can punish.

That's completely different than this. Unscaled damage isn't as broken as a free bar of meter from whiffing a special move. With this glitch people can build meter for free which means they can break, x-ray etc multiple times a round. That shit is literally broken.

Welp this kinda sucks for me

I feel like you don't know how stamina works, but okay

Edit: Also I'm not saying it shouldn't be banned or fixed, I'm just saying semi-infinite meter isn't automatically going to make you jesus christ online.

Spectral Ermac is gimmicky they said. Spectral Ermac is his worst variation they said.

That's fair. But with regards to Mileena, though not broke in terms of her power, she is broken. As in, you can do a move and it will literally just not work. That could be very problematic in a tournament.

 

[Desperdicio]

Run returns and Ermac is broken. This is starting to look so much like UMK3. I love it.

He is right, Breaker knocks the opponent down, by the time they can even move Ermac has already built at least a meter of bar back
