Fool, I agree with you. Down players picked up a character like Shang Tsung, placed high, and have still insisted he is low tier to this day.

Says the person who told people to pick Watchtower on Injustice online because "it doesnt lag"
Shang Tsung was #10 in the game, IMO. The character was definitely high tier and one of the better characters the game had to offer.
While I agree that shang is #10, honestly all the tier placements after Kabal and Kenshi are very debatable
You just had to fill space because the top guys only use a few characters lol. Characters like Cage and Kano are bitched about by a ton of people, so it's an easy and safe choice. Jacqui is the only character ranked high on that list might be controversial. For the most part all characters ranked high are either placing or are disliked by the community. Funny coincidence.
I suggest you look up what a vortex is because the vortex discovered by Slips actually fits the definition of one in the traditional sense.
At the risk of you just neglecting to look up the definition lets look at exactly what a vortex is:
You should look up GGA Max. He played pretty well in tournaments.
The next time you say absolutes like "there are no vortexes" make sure it's true. You didn't say "there are no vortexes from the top tier cast." Learn from this and reread what you type up to post, think about it with a level head, and remove your typical hyperbole from it before submission because it ALWAYS comes back to make you look stupid.
He was just saying it sucked. Scorpions vortex was a 50/50 and if he guessed wrong he died. Scorpion had the most terrible character design I've ever seen.
His exact words were "No vortexes exist," end of clause. I said that was wrong and he moved the goalpost. It's Dave being Dave.
Dude, you live?
Exactly. Your name sounds so familiar. I think I played you in mk9.
Only thing funny here is someone mentioning Baraka in a conversation as relevant
What exact point are you trying to argue
M2Dave knows what's up. Baraka was shit on but had some crazy stuff. Now obviously he wasn't even close to top tier but in the right hands he could do some damage.
I definitely agree with what pig said. I took a look at what you changed and I can tell you didn't consult with the top players of each character like you should of had. You're making uninformed changes and too many of them. Just looking at my main character for example cage, what are your justifications for those changes? It's as if you just changed his frame data just to do it. There was no reason to change anything about him really. Your patch could be good but you should definitely ask the top players of mk9 what should be changed first. Most people are going to find things they really don't like about your alterations.
Not like running in this game is hard or anything but remember, you need that stance switch button
how would you fix hiboxes/hurtboxes issues without stance switch tho?Not like running in this game is hard or anything but remember, you need that stance switch button
I'm not sure how much you played MK9 but Baraka was never any better than like, bottom 6.
I mean, it is REO and Atk on the balance. Who would you choose?
He literally has REO being involved on the rebalancing. I think he consulted way more players but no one really helped. And a rebalance isn't a case of just leaving characters the same just because they operate fine under the current state of the game. Cage would simply be boosted by the high tiers getting nerfed, and still retain a lot of his dumb aspects. Also, remember, the changes possible are limited due to how poorly coded the game is. Sonya can't even get the desired changes because EX cartwheel is given the same code as regular.
