Liu Kang bottom 5
He isn't?
Wierd... has no 50/50s. His pressure stems from a fireball cancel which is worthless because again, he has no 50/50's. He's probably the one character in the game that simply doesn't keep you guessing what he wants to do. Here's the two things he wants to do. Hit you low with f+4 or cancel his fireball into a grab. You learn this you win.
Don't get this downright imbecile idea that a bottom 5 character means you can't win with him/her. Like I said, the game is very balanced. Even the worst characters in the game are good at a competitve level. I will however not say they have no issues when it's clearly obvious to whoever plays them. Which I do, because I like the shaolin bros. It's pathetic.
But take a look at everyone's tools and bullshit and then look at Liu Kang who's honestly the most honest character in the game. You don't get hit with 40+% combos because you guessed wrong against him... or lose because you can't get in on him. You lost because you were a worse player than Liu Kang's.
Has ok pressure and ok zoning. Couple those with no bullshit 50/50s and you have a character that doesn't excel at anything. Which in turn makes him, in this game, bottom 5.
Can't wait to hear what makes this character so good, when Johnny Cage, a character who isn't top 5, does everything that Kang does and does it better
