Well, I just tested it on my laptop barely running vanilla MKX at 30 FPS and it seems to me that characters like scorpion cannot backdash after a hard knockdown and will get hit, characters like Quan Chi will get hit by a well timed B12, but characters like SZ and Kano can backdash but might get block the 2 in B12 allowing for a FBRC. I wasn't able to check if they could double backdash.
I think beating the best yomi guy and getting 2nd at evo is enough of a resume.
Everyone knows Kabal of MK9 is the most broken shit ever created. But noone ever has the ability to use Kabal PERFECTLY as he's truly capable of.
Kabal was highly represented in tournaments and there were quite a few players playing him at a high level and therefore he has the reputation that he had. This thus far is not the case with DF liu.
But execution is only a time factor. People said that about Kabal, but it just took time. When top players have the execution down, he will do what Tempest does except he will never run out of meter.
Combo on hit, but on a read that if correct blows through nearly everything it should definitely forfeit momentum if Liu is wrong.
I personally haven't seen half of what you guys are talking about. No one seems to be able to demonstrate it so it's hard to accept as fact since the game is just a few months old. He may end up like Kabal. I don't have a problem with the possibility but the probability.
Regular Windmill can cancel to parry and beat armored moves, but EN Windmill it seems like, under testing, can only parry armored moves that are at least 18 frames. This leaves out quite a bit of the cast, although I suppose that's bad news for Tremor I guess. EN Windmill should almost always be interruptible before the last cancellable hit except for 5 characters.
more like 10% chip along meter build, repeat or eat 30%+. pick your poison.
Good video.
Maybe Kotal Kahn, yeh he has a 6f low poke but he can easily get put back into this situation vs LK and LK can even just knock em out and zone em to death so I'd say it's a pretty bad matchup. Quan Chi I think suffers as well, he can only backdash. But to answer your question more accurately, Takeda can't do anything, not even backdash.
Yeah, if Takeda can't do anything, or if characters are forced to armor through, it need to be looked at.
Already said, Xarakamaka
To be fair, Takeda does need to be looked at in general. Nerfing Liu isn't going to demonstrably help his situation.
@ClassySasquatch has been abusing fbc pressure like this since like week 1/2, this has been known here for a while now right? I was pretty surprised when they didn't touch him at all but nerfed Scorpion.
Yeh I thought this was known as well because I first got a nasty taste of it vs @KingHippo's DF LK. I guess because of the execution it's not as used but like a lot of people have stated, it's only the beginning stages. Right now we have Quan chi's and Kung Laos that are far easier to use than this. But we are really early into the games life and once more people start putting in the work we might see more DF out there. I mean this is a character that has this kind of block pressure plus a far extended d2, his d3 gives him plus 1 and low profiles him so you can't cross him up, he can IAFB and has a low FB, can MB his FB's for good unbreakable damage, good combo damage and corner carry, good footsies and space control, and he's relatively plus and gains meter after everything. This character has it all and it's gonna be scary in the right hands.
