Will predator be the zoner that save us all and defeats the evil run button? Will he continue the trend of zoning being topped/saved by DLC characters? Will I be able to collect the skulls as trophies of all the 50/50 mongoloids who they can can ussain bolt run at me with no consequences? Will Wizard finally decide that this game needs predator an un-ban him from evo and allow the game to receive accolades and oscars for his fundamental zoning performance in top 8? Will he share his zoning technology and give plasma cannons to all our earthrealm and outworld zoning heroes? Tune in tomorrow.

Nice use of mongoloid. I didn't see anything about shaming the anti zoning zealots though. You have to make sure the rushdown fools don't mistake your superior zoning tech as "spamming". Otherwise great post

Great showing yesterday at ESL for zoning! Especially when you consider the source.

Top 3 zoning characters as of today.

1. Bone Shaper Shinnok
2. Hish-Qu-Ten Predator
3. Summoner Quan Chi

For meticulous reasons, click here.

I want to see a zoning display by hish-qu-ten because I have not really seen it by the top players.

I main pc version training mode broken so no one.

I was trying to support on learning doing stats but no one wants it and the lack of the game working for me so I can't test out things to improve on what to research

Im having a fun time zoning with HQT Pred. I can't really zone with a guile like character unless I force myself because you need to be patient and really pick your buttons. But with HQT you have to mixup your projectiles and do some preemptive stuff. Bonus is that he also has some nice pressure and ok Mixups. At least for me that's the way and why I like using HQT Predator.

Is there a link to the recent ESL, please? I'm curious to see about this good zoning that went down.

I am going to have a video of myself zoning with predator against a very good kitana player. I zone this way for it is what I think is most effective. It is clear that Hish-qu-ten my have the best zoning in the game. I shall put the video in here when done :D @General M2Dave i would like opinions :D

Sounds good. I'm just starting to play Predator now so I'd like an idea of how people are approaching this variation.

@General M2Dave
What do you think about Necromancer?
Is he even worth ''mastering'' and if not what does he need for buffs / fixes?
From my ~2 Month Experience as ''alt'' he is basicaly Imposter without Teleport and Mimic .. just (df4) for combo extender ... and bad tools like bf2 and this ''unblockable hand that noone with over 50iq uses''.

From Scrubs to Pros
Who's the best MU for online scorpions? Could it be predator? I asked in the scorpion threads but nobody answered.

Fujin and Ermac for MK 11
Zoning is about 95% of my game lol so I have nothing against it. It's no secret Zoning is nearly irrelevant in MK X due to the run of course. Anyone who's played me since Deception to now knows I'm a zoning guy, I don't like rushing down.

I use KJ(ancestral) literally I have not seen ONE player use him online since release, everyone rides on bo. I want to start using Shaolin more too.

I used all the ninjas in MK 9 but honestly Smoke, Noob and Rain the least and rarely. Those who know me know I zoned with Sektor and Ermac 99% of the time lol and even Scorpion from time to time.

Pretty much in MK X all I use are Ermac, KJ and Tremor now for zoning. It's a pain in the ass in this game but when I do win I feel more rewarded in a sense.

I know QC is great for zoning, I just don't like him lol. I'm more of a ninja dude I guess, I know KJ is a monk but i use his badass thief look.:D

I used Scorpion at first, then dropped him but am thinking of actually learning his inferno since it does seem good for zoning.

And used Kenshi at first then dropped him, but he did get buffed so been toying with the idea of picking him up again. IDK.
