Guide - Blood God Kotal Kahn parry flop

[DestructionGodX]

I found this last year i'm just now puttin it out there. Unfortunately Kotal Kahn has what I call a "parry flop" or "parry fail". This can happen against any character i'm just using sonya and kung lao for the examples. Basically the mace parry will leave you stunned and you end up full combo punishable. That is the dumbest shit ever. Don't you hate being punished for making a read? They need to fix this. I think they need to make his parry faster. Kung Lao can get out of gaps because of a 7 frame armored move. Kotal Kahn's ex parry is 2 frames with no armor. That being 5 frames faster then Kung Lao spin should make up for the armor. I think they should make his normal parry and ex parry faster. Wouldn't you agree? Let me know what your opinion is on this.

lol yeah this is pretty depressing. and i'm not sure i understand why it's happening

This is so dumb, I've heard about this bug and it's dumb af. Literally Blood God's way out of gaps is useless in some MUs

I'm now depressed.

I like kotal parry over anyone else in this game (hope wonder woman has something similar like him ) but this has happened to me a few times with ex parry and i hate it
You make a right read, you spend meter, then you are in recovery ready for getting punish. I think ex parry needs more active frames (not sure)

That sucks

I think the problem is that the attack connects with EX parry on the first active frame of the parry. If this is the case, more active frames wouldn't fix it.

If its that i think ex parry startup needs to be reduced to 1, right?

Would be nice but not likely to happen, not sure.

Would be nice but not likely to happen, not sure.

But they really need to do something for him, since this move is crucial to Blood God and Sun God

I thought my timing was just way off, glad it's not just me

Kotal's parry has 2 frames of start up before it's active but is invincible on frame 1. It's not a bug, it's set up this way for using it as a wakeup.

You can do that? Lol I'm sorry but i'm new to this TYM stuff. Just made an account. Some people been begging me to make one cuz of some of the stuff I have. This is ridiculous though. Sometimes the parry won't even come out. I think his parry both normal and ex needs to be faster.

Right & I honestly don't think he should be combo punishable for that. That is just stupid. Kotal as a character is bad enough but Blood God is the worst.

 

[STRYKIE]

If a false blockstring has a 1 frame gap (and I'm pretty sure that's the case with both of the demonstrated examples) then why would Kotal's EX parry be expected to work against it?

I get that Kotal boyz (eh?) wanna be all:

but sometimes it helps to take a minute to understand what your own tools actually do.

How you think I feel & I main BG lol.

Exactly & I just used kung lao and sonya as examples. It can happen against anybody in this game smh.

 

[DestructionGodX]

That sucks

"Suck" ain't even the word for this madness lol.

Lmao!!! Goonie man you are too funny. I can't deal witchu lolol.

I think you're right. I would like for his regular parry to be a lil faster to. Just my opinion.

I agree. Something needs to be done though cuz that is ridiculous. I'm just now getting on TYM. I really didn't care for it but some people said I should make one cuz I know a lil somethin about the game.

Sigh....well thats stupid lol. I don't think he needs to be full combo punished for that though. That is depressing. . . .
