The Parry is definitely nice. It's the perfect mix to me. That is, it doesn't go away on projectile hit, so it can still be used against KL Hat pressure. However, it recovers fast enough to Parry projectiles to gain meter without getting punished. The EN Parry may not be instant armor, but at 3 frames and insanely fast recovery it can play the same roll as armored launchers used to. Amazing.

Also, with armored launchers gone, my girl Ethereal's EN Fade just became probably the best wakeup in the entire game.

@Lokheit, ah, NJP. Thanks.

I can't remember the guy who first posted the B12 to 123 links from when I was researching the Unbreakable guide, but damn, shout outs to him again.

If you already have Aura on, it's still 37% percent for only one bar. Love it, but I don't think it's going to last, lol.

New low starter which is perfectly safe (needs Aura on):

B3~EN Burst, run, B12~Ice Ball, NJP, FJP, run, B12~Silde = 33%

Ah, but there's gaps, so people can armor through. Of course, without armored launchers, the only thing you need to be worried about is Smoke, Ethereal, Unbreakable =), or characters that can spend 2 bars.

@Zerodegreez, don't get me wrong, he'll probably keep it for awhile. After all, look how long it took them to nerf Cryo's and Mileena's damage. However, it seems tipped a bit too high to me, so I'm just saying don't be surprised if down the road it gets normalized.

Wow, 111 does more damage than B12 for Cryo? Bizarre.
It should have been that way in the first place. No reason his 3 hit string should have done less than B12 because it added 1 more hit of scaling.

Holy fucking shit I'm getting like 3 d1s in the B2 corner combos lmao
You should be able to get more now. I used to get 3 when I was trying to find female touching Klone combos. We should be able to add more hits or different stronger hits in a combo now with F12 being faster for the ender. For example the JIP, JIP, F12. Now it should be at least JIP, JIK, F12. or JIP, JIK, S1, F12. add all the damage you can.

I hear that, but characters faster strings often do less damage than their slower.

Understood but it just made 111 useless because B12 starts mid and 111 starts high, B12 had more starting horizontal range and did more damage. Now it's the way it should be which is only variation specific. Would have been nice to give him a 3 hit sword attack for 111, but more importantly his 114 is still useless and needs to be cancel able with no belly flop.

Eh I'm talking about Grandmaster, 111 doesn't concern me.

Look at all these ice clones online. Cryomancers and GMs are coming out of nowhere.
How do you all feel about Unbreakable? Do you guys think hes actually viable now?
