When I said zoned out I meant zoning by the general cast. Yeah I think its common knowledge that KJ is not a zoner at all...if anything him trying to zone is counterintuitive to his range

But isn't this more the story of how good Kung Jin is and less how bad Kotal is? Story isn't exactly exactly unique to Kotal. You've got some pretty bitching 40% armor punishes yourself. But hey if you think your character is so-so then so be it. It's your character at the end of the day.
You make it sound like we're trying to make Kenshi's old EX charge whiff, there's plenty of other characters I'd feel more apprehensive about backing off from them when cornered and I'd still much rather have KJ there than anywhere else.
Your 10 minute Ninjitsu Scorp on a third world connection doesn't count. Pipe down with the likebait son.
40% for a bar almost never happens unless it's in the corner. Most of the time it ranges from 32% to 38% which is low compared to what other characters get for that amount. F2 as a starter is whatever and doesn't beat all of jump back/nj/jump forward, it just depends on the situation. Kotal's d3 doesn't low profile as well as d4. I'd say d4 is a great tool. The fact that you say footsies for dummies f1 is insulting considering both strings are punishable and if canceled for safety can be armored out of. Sorry we don't actually have a footsies for dummies ADVANTAGE OVERHEAD LAUNCHER. I guarantee once any KJ player plays Kotal for more than 10 games, they will understand and do fine. The matchup sucks. The whole zoning thing is a bill though, that's not why Kotal loses this matchup.
I never said Kotal wins, I'm aware of the embarrassment of riches Kung Jin has at his disposal. The idea that Kotal is some hamstrung character who can't compete I think is disingenuous however, not that that's what you were saying, but put it this way, you don't have as bad as some. Perhaps there's some solace that can be taken in that.
All those things you mentioned have gaps. The biggest thing that helped me in the MU is realizing that his strings into the sword have gaps and can be armored through and back-dashed most of the time. It also doesnt take a rocket scientist to take one step forward or back out of the sun pillar, and force Kotal forward or back to get out of it. You are heavily overestimating that tool. Also Kabal did not have gaps when played optimally.
Ogotta wait till tnight. At work if that's cool
Notice how I never said he's a shitty character in my post, you're inferring that incorrectly. I just listed the reasons why no one talks about KK, that's all. Pnut's post says it all, even he admits that Kahn takes some serious thought and play
This deserves to be memetized, i just died laughing
this glitch will get fixed and will work as supossed this has been reported
Imao, ur overreacting. The only thing in this MU that annoys so much is KJ`s early jump2 upclose, but its annoying for the whole cast. Other things actually are ok. This MU is all about footsies and baits. U dont need to hold Jin all match upclose, just abuse throws, when u get in. Cage feels very fine against KJ at 2\3-fullscreen distance because JC`s mediocre zoning works very good against Jin and u can actually outzone him very easily.
Is there footage of this? I thought he used Kung Jin.
I think i've said "i won't talk out of my ass, i will grind the MU with the 3 characters and see for myself what they have to offer"
put any character to reversal mode throw and it blocks it
