MKX Patch Notes 5/14/15

[DDustiNN]

Very reasonable changes thus far. Nice job, NRS.

Also....now I can finally try Reptile. I assume it's just a re-color of that shitty Sub Zero Klassic costume, though. I think that shit looks terrible. I don't get it because Klassic Mileena and Kitana look sick. Klassic Sub Zero looks like he was made with Play-Doh or something. I hate it.

I agree 100%. The Klassic Sub-Zero costume looks so terrible, and I hope Reptile's is better. The Klassic costumes in MK9 were so awesome, and I was hoping to see those again... Ended up being super disappointed when I saw Sub's though

 

[FlappyDaniel]

what a sexy sexy patch, looks like there won't be major knee jerk reactions.

 

[RM Jonnitti]

• Shinnok – Away + 3 (Shin Kick) is now towards + 4 and he has a new away + 3 (Devious Heel)
• Shinnok – Can now enhance Hell Sparks & Hell Blast on block.
• Shinnok (Impostor) – Now steals Dash Punch from Jax instead of Ground Pound.
• Shinnok (Necromancer) – Can now control the location of Judgment Smash & Judgment Fist.
  
  
  

 

[Name v.5.0]

You guys who are screaming about nerfs to Sub Zero, and Quan Chi...I dont understand what those changes mean. How are those nerfs?

 

[Cossner]

Oh lawrd.

 

[TheIrishFGCguy]

Cdjr still saying Kung Jin's problem is his normals lmfao. If his damage is reduced by anywhere from 8-10% then he's fine, let him have his great footsies.

 

[roosTakk]

Damn I was enjoying mashing on block

My fingers are legitimately callused from how much i was mashing

#free

 

[Peckapowa]

Really happy to see Kano's B1 untouched, great patch overall.

I think it had random adv. of being plus 2, regardless I'm still waiting for predator and dropping quan cheaps

 

[Gamer68]

I think the damage scaling was reduced lol

I know, that's what I mean't. "Better" as in "Fixed/Reduced". But I should have used a better word. Sorry for the confusion!

 

[FOREVER EL1TE]

Nice patch. But @AK L0rdoftheFLY
They must've not heard our rant about dualist! Time for destruction lol

 

[Zoidberg747]

Interactable stuff is taken out and Dvorah gets an indirect buff?

This was a good patch.

 

[Ghoztly]

First post, and this patch convinced me to actually cave and buy/learn the game starting today. Wasn't looking forward to an army of bojutsu and Quan cheese. Now the true fans of the character can still enjoy them and they won't be as bandwagon. Klassic reptile is obviously godlike. The sub nerf kind of made me salty, I am not sure how this will change him but it seems bad to me.

Millena buff for telekick was so necessary it's unreal.

Also, the Kenshi struggle is real. I am sorry for anyone who plays this character, don't give up yet!

Anyways, off to my own training mode instead of poverty mode at my friends.

 

[MadeFromMetal]

Quran nerf tho...

lol.

Wait? But they didn't fix Jacqui?

Its ok. reported.

 

[Captain Snackface]

Wow Kenshi got nothing. I wouldn't play that character with a 10 foot pole now.

Nah, the Sub-Zero Grandmaster nerf is amazing. Constant Ice Klones and Kung Jin Bojutsu were the two most absolutely annoying things I've consistently encountered online. My salt is finally dissipating

 

[Gamer68]

Oh, and the Krypt Counter! Thank you! I finally don't have to keep track of how many unlocks I have in each location in the Krypt!

 

[Rice]

Its not human Reptile but still like it.

 

[Ugodimak]

Ruined? rofl... Jesus. Cry me a river, they going to need to do a lot more to ruin the character for me.

He will continue to be my main and most played character for he his my favorite character in all of Mortal Kombat. I just will accept these nerfs with dignity and work my way around them.

Spoiler

Until Predator and Tremor come out

I personally find Warlock to be his hypest version anyway. Looking forward to it.

fix what?

 

[The Magician]

RIP Cassie's damage 2015?

By far! I'm here getting hype over a move and I don't even know what it does yet lol. NRS please have EX scoop be a viable wakeup, please.
