So why is he the only Tarkatan in top 8?
Why would he stick with Tanya when Alien is her but better? You make zero sense.
So why is he the only Tarkatan in top 8?
Everyone was too focused on Acidic and the robots - no one was paying attention to Tark. The only reason Dragon knew was me. I thought he'd stay loyal to his character but he's looking for results. I understand it but I don't respect it. But hey, so is the life of a tourney player.
So no other player was aware of Tarkatan? Okay bro lol
Tellin ya now, if anyone else in that top 8 put an hour into Tark, they'd be just as good as Dragon is at the moment. It's stupidly easy character to grasp. This is going nowhere though, I'll agree to disagree
This has happened before though. Remember when everyone thought Buzzsaw was Lao's best variation? Or how long it took to realize Shaolin was amazing?
I played JDMs Tarkatan the other day. I felt sooo helpless lol. Tanya's Rekka delays are easier to parry with Commando Kano's EX Parries, but god, Tarkatan... I felt so helpless in that matchup and even he admitted to Tarkatan being pretty dirty. The ending Rekka is like deceptively quick. Makes you think you can armor through it, parry it, or something lol.
Yeah man, the last 3 weeks I've been trying to play as many people with Tark to show how nuts it is. I break down the frames, I explain the gaps - doesn't matter.
No one thought Zod was that good when he came out in injustice
A lot of Tarkatan players have been saying how good he is though.
he should be in top 16
Lol I'm mainly just sad. I posted it where I could, told the people I play with, was met with some opposition, and then this happens. I feel like Professor Trelawny with the prophecy and people were like ah Harry Potter will be fine. Then I think Dragon is actually a character loyalist but then he whips out Tark. It's a bad Sunday - I need a drink lol
Thanks! It seems like the last match I knew of him (the one with the controller malfunction with Wolfkrone) was the last one bringing him to top16.
Fair enough. But why didn't everybody just play with Tanya? She still seemed present, but not like pre patch.
You mean at this tourney or in the past? Truthfully I often wondered why people didn't just go with Tanya, but I find most people were playing Lao and some of the other characters that could hang with the top tiers. A lot of people are actually loyal to their character. Right now, Tanya isn't quite as good anymore and Tark is just nuts. I predict now that people have woken up, we'll see more Tarks floating around.
Which really sucks cause i picked him up cause Baraka is my favourite MK character. But ive since dropped him cause I know nerfs are incoming. He's far too strong. I think if you take away the option to make him safe off his rekka it would be fair. I mean he can go overhead,low, or hit confirm into launcher. They should be unsafe if you guess right.
Fair point there is not enough data. But I do not think you can nerf/buff entirely on theory. I think it should be a part of it, definitely. But if you don't have any actual data to corroborate the theories, then its a waste, especially when you include the player factor.
In the past, after the first patch.
The player.
