Question - Tanya How good is Tanya...really?

[AK L0rdoftheFLY]

Mileena's, Raiden's, Jason, Kung Lao... pretty sure Scorp, Takeda and Ermac have invincibility too - at least while they're off the screen

thank you for saving me the time.

... that's the point.

Because she doesn't leave the screen, giving it invincibility makes it a teleport. Otherwise it'd just be a dash, but even back dashes have invincibility so...

Thank you again for saving me the time.

which it should be, don't get why she gets to break this rule when not even Raiden got to keep his invincibility despite tele being in only one variation and them adding significant recovery from mk9 so I just assumed they were saying good bye to free invincible teleports.

Why does every character have to play like every other? Finally we have another character like Kung lao and scorp with good air control and decent mix up potential. To me their tool sets are very very similar to hers except their 50/50s are safer while her mobility is better. Damage output is lower for her than both of them.

She may be top 5 but she could also be just out side of it. She has some tough matchups believe it or not.

TYM...think. Which characters control more space than right in front of them?

To give you a start...
Kenshi
Shinnok
Scorpion

Why do you think MIT starts with Tanya and then goes back to scorp when he loses the mirror? Cause scorp shuts down her air control does more damage and has safer mixups with hellfire.

In fact he lost that game and tried Tanya mirrors once again...lol.
His Scorpion didn't shut down anything

1 match of a dozen others...your post didn't shut down anything

Why should he come back to Tanya if Scorpion controls her so well? Let's see what MIT thinks @YOMI MITYEAP

 

[Rude]

In all seriousness, i think Tanya is one of those characters that will take a lot of time and patience to figure out, but she's not broken.

She dictates the pace of the match and forces players to play outside of their gameplan in most match ups. Characters like this take longer to figure out, but it will be all right.

I played against someone who mastered Tanya. I thought Sonya was bad.... Tanya is a whole other species.

nobody has mastered tanya yet

Make her second teleport on EX teleport cost a bar of stamina and make it less insanely advantageous on block and she's fine.

Maybe make each teleport cost a bar of stamina and keep her block advantage? I dunno. It'd need to be tested. Tweaking her teleport could either nerf her into obsolescence or not affect her at all if it's not a substantial change (looking at you Aquaman).

Somebody with 400+ wins and 28 loses with Tanya didnt master her?

 

[StormGoddess]

umm no - not necessarily- Tanya's been out what 2 weeks? Those wins came from other characters most likely. Did you not hear @SonicFox5000 last night lol- online wins and placement doesn't determine the player's skill level.

No they were all with Tanya . The way he was playing was perfect. Im not saying he was the best Tanya in the world. But imo he mastered the character and knew how to use all her moves to perfection. You dont have to agree.

Or maybe his opponents didn't know what to do yet. There's always that as a possibility.

Cause people are still trying to figure out what to do against her.

 

[AK L0rdoftheFLY]

Somebody with 400+ wins and 28 loses with Tanya didnt master her?

with 27 characters, each with 3 variations...

That equals 81 variations. Divide 81 into 400 wins and assume he has fought each variations the same amount (which he hasn't) he has only fought each variation about 5 times. Is that enough to say he has mastered Tanya and all her MU knowledge? Online of all places? lol

Fine

 

[StormGoddess]

exactly, no one is saying he wasn't good at Tanya or that Tanya isnt a good character. What i am saying is that Tanya brings new and different tools to the MK series. Tools that the community doesn't know how to react to and punish yet. At the start of MKX, Sonya players would blitz the opponent with her mixups. Now it's common to see players block whole stings of her mixups and pressure. In time Tanya(whether she gets nerfed or not) will be figured out.

 

[Awkward Sloth]

Please don't base your argument off of online Tanya. Some characters seem a lot better online than they are offline. -cough Mileena-

Things are way easier to punish and not everyone is playing on a perfect connection. Teleports and lag made people think Scorpion was top tier in Injustice even after the nerfs. Online mentality is never a good thing. Specially on this games netcode. :/

I don't get how removing invincibility on the only air dash in the game would somehow make her a boring generic character with no air control.

because its not an air dash, its a teleport, and the invincibilty properties are one of the interesting aspects of her gameplay

"she needs it!"

let her keep projectile immunity then so she stays "interesting" and somehow still is the definition of a teleport, no one should have free invincibility and NO other teleports have invincibility really stop saying this is a trait of teleports guys it just isn't.
