What's new

General/Other - Jason Voorhees why isn't jason in any tournaments (ESL etc)

Is it because his variations aren't good for tournament play or people don't want to learn him? Hell someone mains Ferra/Torr at ESL and I never considered him good..

His instant air game is hard as hell. His run cancels require Kang level execution, un reactable 50/50 that are safe, plus, and lead into itself. BEST projectles in the game. No gaps into tick throws, his x ray hits the hardest in the game. Best run, backdash, forward walkspeexd, low-pornfiling normals, andbest grab in th game, untechable I may add you.

Best meterlessdmg, and caltrop level DoT. He broke people just cant level up to his level. Imma stop drinking now..

He's just under represented in tournaments. Jason is just downplayed, I mean in a recent poll of online play Jason had the highest win rate in the ENTIRE game.

Jason has shit scaling, extremely slow pokes, terrible teleport, and slow startup on normals among other things. The community recognized him as the worst character in the game, then NRS nerfed his passive damage buff, which was his only saving grace, along with tick throws.

You forgot the :DOGE.
But Jason's b122 in Relentless/Unstoppable is godlike. Ticking off of b1, using b12 to throw people off because it's only like -1 or -2, etc.

The only downside to b122 is that it causes the most ridiculous damage scaling I've ever seen in my life.

Bingo. But, this is exactly why I wouldn't quite say B122 is godlike. Very good? Yes. The most important part of his overall tool set? Yep. Godlike? Close, but probably not, considering that the damage scaling renders his most practical bnbs to under 30% meter less damage . . . which, is simply crippling, because the only way Unstoppable/Relentless Jason could possibly be good with his current frame data and tool set is if he had elite damage.
