Video/Tutorial - Unstoppable Jason is officialy fixed. Secret buffs and more!

[Kinetic Balding1]

So the patch has just released and has fixed all of the problems with Jason that were considered bugs or things that were not meant to be in the game. First of all, they fixed the hit box on his mid, b1, so now it hits all hit boxes. Second, they increased the hit box on tight squeeze, which also fixes the issue where the opponent can just let go of block to avoid the grab. This makes b1 tight squeeze much more effective.
This also prevents a lot of characters from d3ing in the middle of an armored tight squeeze to make it whiff.
All of these buffs, including the choke buff, also make executing combos with Jason much easier.

Video footage coming soon!

Jason players, we are back!

Sadly, the revive on unstoppable Jason still takes away your meter.

Jason's b1 now hits Cassie every single time.

This is such a great day.

 

[Kinetic Balding1]

You can no longer low profile Jason's tight squeeze. Pre patch, all Cassie had to do was d4 to make the grab whiff, now look at it now.

Jason's b1 now hits Cassie every single time.

You don't know how happy it makes me to see that. We were talking about it in the general discussion thread, but to see it hit, beautiful.

 

[Kinetic Balding1]

Jason also has increased combo potential since his b1 has a better hit box. What I have done now you could not do pre patch.

 

[Kinetic Balding1]

Pre Patch, to avoid every tick throw, all you had to do was stop blocking. Look at it now.

In Depth Explanation of b1 tight squeeze coming soon!

The hit box on his b2 was also fixed to hit mid on all hit boxes.

Can you test out this change and see where it's applicable?

• Jason (Relentless) - reduced the recovery frames on Dark Pursuit (enhanced) to 54 (down from 106)

Supposedly it's fast enough to get out safely off f3, jump kicks, etc. It's not as big as what you've been showing but it could be useful.

 

[Scott The Scot]

I am sooooo happy. I hated how everyone just low profile Jason and that was it, no command grabs! And b1.... YES! I'm very, very happy now

Here's a brief demonstration of the power of back 1 tight squeeze.

Great stuff, odd seeing Jason do anything outside b122 and 111's in combos, nice to see some use from those strings outside hitting f2 after a jump in lol.

The b1 looks amazing now, could you always uppercut neutral jumps after a whiffed tight squeeze? I honestly never tried for some reason, slipped my mind since so few people ever get out when I do a tick grab. Really cool stuff.

The following make Dark Pursuit safe on hit (I have tested them all):

B122, 23, 24, F3, B2, all jump in kicks, and all neutral jump punches

edit: You can also end your combos in 111 and safely activate Dark Pursuit . . . which is awesome

I... I don't... is this?...

I'm happy

Well, there is a God.

Sadly, the revive on unstoppable Jason still takes away your meter.

It's supposed to, they explained it in the Kombat Kast. When you revive, it takes your meter, and however much you had, it turns it into health. So if you ha an XRay, you'd get 30 percent back.

Well still if you can't determine how many bars you want to spend, or any at all, it's almost always bad

Being able to press buttons almost as soon as you crack your neck when using EX Dark Pursuit is great. It was seriously needed.

Any neutral jump that is not Quan Chi's, Kung Jin's, Erron Black's, Ferra Torr, and Takeda, you can d2 after a whiffed tick throw and hit them before they can do anything. Only Quan Chi can punish the tick throw with a neutral jump punch.
