Pnut.Has anyone made top 3 with Kotal using ONLY Kotal? I know Tekken Master obviously , but he also used D'Vorah.

Because people who play to win rarely stick to a single character/variation. This discussion is about a single character being played throughout the entire tournament.Off the top of my head, characters that will not place top 3 at a major no matter who is playing them:
BRC
Kenshi
Goro
Kitana
Tanya
Leatherface
By OP numbers, only a third of the cast is viable. But its not really any variation of those 12 characters is it? When you cut those top 12 chars down to their dominant variations, a couple of them have 2 variations such as Alien. So maybe 15,16 variations that can make top 3, out of 100 variations in this game?
I'm just a filthy casual looking at this, but I guess what I'm getting at is if you believe only 15% of the cast is viable, why even play this game?
ok I knew he was in a top 8, didn't know it was top 3.Pnut.
He got 3rd at Final Round. Also the list is characters you think can make top 3. Not characters that have in the current patch of MKXLok I knew he was in a top 8, didn't know it was top 3.
That's just his opinion. I play liu and maybe I won't make top 3 with him. But the sole point of a game is to have fun while getting better.Off the top of my head, characters that will not place top 3 at a major no matter who is playing them:

I didn't think Kotal could so I wanted to know if he did just to be safe. Thanks.He got 3rd at Final Round. Also the list is characters you think can make top 3. Not characters that have in the current patch of MKXL

Wound's path, not trying to downplay how good he is, was free aside from Foxy and King. King is still trying to figure out some stuff in the Shinnok MU and Foxy wasn't playing the best (look at every other time they meet). Wound has made top 8 at the other two and once he gets paired up with a Mileena or a Takeda he loses. There are too many other characters with better tools. Like I said, Wound would have to be playing out of his mind. It's possible I suppose but 9/10 times I don't see it.Shinnok absolutely can. Wound just made top 5 at evo and was top 8 at Combo breaker and CEO. The character is capable of claiming a top 3 spot.
I also am inclined to believe that Quan can as well.
They can only use the one character the entire tournament.I think Scorpion can do it. PL was one match away from doing so at Combo Breaker with a half-baked Ninjutsu. (yes he also used Lao but LBSH Ninjutsu is what got him the results against notable scalps).
The problem IMO is that our representation simply isn't consistently good enough.
Well that's what I'm saying, the only times he used anyone else were ultimately irrelevant.They can only use the one character the entire tournament.
I don't know about Boneshaper. EX hell sparks is only +14 on block. The risk is too high.If War God can do it, so can Boneshaper and Warlock IMO.
I don't think Warlock is on the same level as Boneshaper or War God.If War God can do it, so can Boneshaper and Warlock IMO.
For as long as the variation system exists in nrs games there will always be that one poster that brings this up lolI think it kinda goes without saying that variations don't need to be mentioned as upon viewing the list or coming up with our own, their placement will be dictated by their best variation(s) automatically.
