Question Who Are Some of The Biggest Downplayers?

[TheGangstaFace]

Just out of boredom and curiosity I wanna know who you think as a community or a specific player in mind in this state of the game is the biggest downplayer of their character. Just for the sake of seeing the same answer over and over please exclude Wound lol.

Ex: There's a Takeda player I've played with that claims Ex Kunai HTB is easy to block

(Screenshots and quotes welcome)

Also left Scorpion off because let's face it he's solid, and Kenshi because sorry but he's bad. I don't need to go into detail, look at the threads and Pig lol. Triborg I just didn't have room for.Just comment Triborg I suppose.

Wound. B tier Shinnok is a classic

A-List Cage too but I think they have a point in that he does require outstanding execution to pull off

Wasn't it C? Also yeah I wanna know how execution (that many people pull off with practices) excuses his limits lol

Too many to choose from. It'd be easier to pick character communities that don't downplay honestly.

It's us, it's the Shinnok community. Wound's burying us. That being said - I'm voting the Ermac community on a count of this phrase:

"Top 10? Oh, Ermac is in the conversation."

 

[wsj515]

the quan community pre-nerf

 

[TyCarter35]

The Johnny Cage community by farrrr

 

[YoloRoll1stHit]

Johnny community: "He can't d4 to low profile D'vorah's mid so it must be a losing matchup. He can't get in normally, he must jump in"
Shinnok community don't downplay. Only Wound does

 

[CrazyFingers]

I became insanely upset when i couldn't pick multiple

 

[HanSolo]

I voted Ermac. Pre-nerf it was absolutely Quan Chi though, @wsj515 nailed it on the head.

As a Boneshaper main it is with a heavy heart that I see Shinnok as the most voted for. I'd like to remind you all that it is not downplaying if the character is actually shit.

We of the Ermac delegation nominate the Liu Kang community in our place as the greater down players.

There are characters that aren't exactly top tier or anything but some of the players downplay there low tier characters a bit much.

I've played pretty good reptile players as well as hearing a bunch of BS. I've heard the standard stuff, reptile is honest, reptile isn't that good etc. Actually... Just read this thread:https://testyourmight.com/threads/reptile-bottom-5.52931/

Doesn't all of Dvorahs footsie tools beat Cages in almost every situation?

 

[M2Dave]

Let me see... who downplays more... an entire community of Johnny Cage players or Cowboy...

Definitely Cowboy. So Shinnok.

 

[Addhad]

Well shinnok has an overhead teleport that jails

Lmao I do hear that a lot

I was thinking about making it multiple but I wanna see the MOST downplaying

I support this statement

In the case of Johnny Cage players is it right to call them downplayers if they're actually just too dumb to realise how good their character is?

Same could be said for Liu Kang players too.

Stop. He's not that good because he doesn't have good pokes. Kappa

did everyone forget that Sub Zero community exists in a constant state of downplay?

I was told Grandmaster is good ONLY IF he gets you to the corner. You know who you are...

As a Cutthroat player would you agree with the comment to block kanos overhead first and react to the low when you see his leg come up? Lol
