Match-Up Discussion - Goro Buffs Goro needs so he doesn't lose to the whole cast

[SaltShaker]

saltshaker remember the thread i made about the correlation between crying and getting your character buffed? Then I got blown up for it lol

Hahaha!!! Oh wow I almost forgot about that thread! "Almost". -.-

The 3 punch walk hits I'm kinda iffy about.

Because MB punch walk has infinite armor...so you have to block it and that means they'd get a free grab or get knocked up for full combo...and with regular punchwalk, you can't take the last hit and punish the grab...once it hits once, you're eating the full punch walk. So block and get grabbed or don't block and eat decent damage.

Everything else, I agree for the most part.

MB punch walk only leads to like 27% lol. If you guess right though and jump the command grab, Goro is eating a full combo from your character which is gonna take more damage for sure, unless your opponent is Goro too. The risk/reward really isn't that crazy for Goro, considering other characters in the game can mix you up for free 30% meterless and if they guess wrong they're safe

Guff Boro

I don't play Goro, but its clear that he needs something.

 

[BunLantern]

At this point anything to make him sort of playable would be cool. I've been using Predator more and more, it's crazy how much different it feels having options when I play.

Come on man, canceling 2 of three hits into command grab? That means that from any block string he gets a tick throw. You said that they focused on his strengths and buffed those. In line with that, punch walk does not need buffs.

Agree about the other stuff, but lets not go crazy.

Dude you get 34% off of a Raw EX Punchwalk, the CMD grab thing is so unnecessary

Mileena vs Goro 8-2 Mileena free.

why can't goro have legit dirt. The risk reward is still skewed, if he guesses right he gets 14 and if you guess right it's a full combo punish

Even if he had it he still wouldn't be top 10. Even if he had I don't think he'd body any body character, he wouldn't have any 7-3 matchups in his favor.

Why not give it to him?

27% with an infinite armor starter lol I like the idea of better anti-air, fixed tele stop and such but I feel like the punch walk into grab is a stretch. Just my opinion.

Buzzsaw kung lao has to make people respect an ex spin which does 24%. You still need to respect it.

Im waiting for Metzos to come in here and say Goro is fine lol

Erron's grab is minus on hit, and does less damage.

It's not something that helps Goro in the right way, it's just a dumb thing to give him because 'dirt' instead of something he needs like buffing his damn run.

The reasoning of 'So and So has it' has never been a justified point for me.

it isn't infinite armor

 

[C88 Zombieekiler]

He goes even with sub

 

[Asodimazze]

I agree with all this buff, plus more range on b1 and faster run. With all these, he would still get destroyed by the top tiers anyway

 

[GAV]

He goes even with sub

 

[C88 Zombieekiler]

what?

 

[FinalBoss_FGC]

it isn't infinite armor

Might as well be

 

[C88 Zombieekiler]

Might as well be

its like 4 hits of armour

 

[Neferefre]

 

[juicepouch]

Might as well be

well it's better to be accurate than spreading blatant misinformation

 

[Eldriken]

you mean b12u2, by the by

I'm all for all of these at this point, but mostly b12u2 and an AA buff. I think those would truly shore up his holes and then he'd just be weak and rounded

the rest would be a great luxury

And you mean "by the way".

 

[Afk Skinny]

How hard would you say his matchup against Mileena is? I feel that's in Goro's favor
