Okay guys Kung Jin got an awesome buff for Shaolin making his low chakram low profile and in a crouch state.
He now beats high projectiles and becomes a much better zoner since you have to respect his low chakram even more.
I have been calling for a buff on his frame advantage on mb (either) Chakram lately and didn't get it so I will explain why it can help him become a better all around character.
In this game, there are 4 characters with boomerang projectiles - Mournful Kitana, Kobu Jitsu Tanya, Hat Trick Lao and Shaolin Kung Jin. None of these (that I'm aware of) give you any advantage on block if meter burned but here's the issue with that...Kitana and Tanya can both move before their boomerang returns back to them so they have time to get in and begin pressure, Kung Lao has some of the best movement in the game so he can get in quickly and Kung Jin...well, KJ is notoriously slow and he has to wait until his Chakram gets back to him so he can put it in the holster and then he can run in.
ShaoJin does NOT have ANY viable strings that result in plus frames on block and I get low 30s on metered combo with low/oh starter and mid 30s with 7 frame 221. I believe the fact that KJ doesn't have great damage nor is he at advantage with any normals...nor does he have the speed to run in and begin pressure at even mid screen mb chakram... is exactly why his mb chakram needs to have advantage on block.
So here is my chakram buffs that I feel ShaoJin needs and one or two that I want.
Need:
Low chakram +2 on hit, up from 0
Mb Low chakram a few removed frames of recovery.
Mb straight chakram +4 on block, up from 0
Fix flipkick hit box to always hard knockdown opponent. (Has issue if opponent is too close, it'll go over opponent and barely clip the back of their head where they suffer from a few frames of hit stun and then full punish)
Wants:
A string that pops up that doesnt push them half screen like f2d1
Increase damage scaling for mb straight chakram to match mb low chakram scaling
What do you guys think? Asking for too much?
Well Quan got an overhead that leads to 47% meterless and 57% one bar so think about that first.
