Soooooooo when playing against Ermac as Kung Lao....11212~spin whiffs midscreen. ALMOST EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. The spin just doesn't hit him. Try it yourself, doesn't work. UNLESS you're wearing the MK3 skin.* For god knows what reason MK3 Lao's spin has a bigger hitbox (or the hit reaction from 11212 is different for MK3 Lao or some other explanation) so it's the only costume where 11212~spin will successfully connect midscreen against Ermac*. What's even more stupid is that Ermac is the ONLY character affected by this, it even hits on females! Wtf?!
So not only is it (edit: DOUBLE->) costume specific but it only affects ONE character. *sigh* I really hope this gets fixed, it affects Buzz Saws and Hat Trick mains more though since it's their meterless punisher. Here's a sad video of it in action:
Edit: Turns out it's not just specific to one character and costume, it's now one character and DOUBLE costume specific! Even if you're wearing the MK3 skin 11212~spin will still whiff midscreen on Klassic Ermac! Thanks to @STRYKIE for the heads up
Double edit: ALSO whiffs on Pharaoh Ermac. *heavy sigh*
Here's the combinations where spin will and won't hit after 11212 per both characters' costumes (WIP):
Primary Lao vs Primary, Tournament, Pharaoh, Klassic Ermac = MISS
Tournament Lao vs Primary, Tournament, Pharaoh, Klassic Ermac = MISS
MK3 Lao vs Primary & Tournament Ermac = HIT
MK3 Lao vs Pharaoh & Klassic Ermac = MISS
Gaucho Lao vs Primary, Tournament, Pharaoh, Klassic Ermac = MISS
Bloody hell....
