I didn't answer since it's the same question he asked and got the answer +4
My B. I legit didn't see it.
Yes. But realize it is your ass on a silver platter if you time it wrong. Or if it is a multihit 50/50 be prepared to parry it all.
30 frames of vulnerability is far worse in most cases than having trust in your defense. 30 frames means they can get whatever they want in their entire arsenal. Plus, if it isn't just a single hit 50/50 then you're going to either have to keep parrying or have enough presence of mind to block the correct option. For example, Quan Chi does b2~close EX rune or b34~close EX rune. If you parry the first hit of either you're going to have to parry the rest or block correctly (in this case you don't even get a punish if you parry EX rune). If you miss the parry he'll get a free hit punish.
Got you, i just feel like at this point in the games life somebody would be utilizing the parry far more effectively besides avoiding chip. If i had the knowledge to know all the 50/50's in the game id be on that shit with possibly the swaggiest blood god. Also for your example, i thought if you parry'd certain strings your opponent cant cancel into any specials?
Oh shit, you're right he can't even cancel those. He still has the multihitting b3 option which is a bitch to parry. I think it is under used as well but it is so god damn risky sometimes. In the Takeda MU you either pick WG or learn to be a parry god.
