Zyphox
What is going on guys, Ya Boi Zyphox here.
i've wanted to make this thread and video for 3 days now but i got sick after combo breaker and couldn't do it. anyway before i say anything, again congrats to @RedRaptor10 for making top 8 at Combo Breaker. this video is in no way shape or form trying to discredit you or any players that you played at Combo breaker because MU knowledge is a skill you must learn in NRS games. i think you did a great job using what was given to you and you taught me a lot about takeda and MKX in general with your play last weekend. all credit for this video goes to Redraptor as he is the one who showed me this can be done.
Now the reason i'm even posting this is because i want the takeda community to not rely on f12 2+4 pressure so much in the event that you run into someone who knows the MU. like any character we all need to find a way to execute a gameplan incase plan A and plan B go south.
again most of the cast you can still do f12 2+4 and tele cancel on the first hit and be safe if you block, but this opens up opportunity for the opponent to initiate offense if he knows thats your only option. against faster characters committing to f12 2+4 is like committing suicide and it really sucks. Sub zero is one of takeda worst MU's IMO because of this.
Anyway takeda's of tym discuss what you think we can do to have a back up plan incase someone knows the above.
*note Quan Chi actually will get hit after armoring f12 2+4 if you cancel into spear or close kunai on reaction.
