Does anyone know If trident rush is still unsafe?

 

[The PantyChrist]

Look if you came from kenshi you will be pleased with aquaman

Be careful, I'm a trash tier magnet lol. I have the tendency to like chars that have cool design but are garbage.

It's safe.

 

[EMPRESS_SunFire]

Yea but then we got trait which I've been thinking about. These are just some things he can (theoretically) shut down with his trait (which is apparently a 15 second cool down lel)

Superman freeze? nah
Batman trait and grapple? lol
Supergirl wants to freeze me? no thx
Atrocitus 50/50s? Dnt feelz like gessin
Canary cry? Np
Grodds ermac grab thingy in trait is a no go
Harley mixes? nope
Flash can go mix someone else
Poison ivys kiss dont even effect aqumen
Dont gotta guess against those feline women
Firestorm molten trap lel
Green arrow more like no ice arrow
Captain cold cant freeze dis water
Scarecrows trait is uzelezz

I mean we don't know till release but holy shit this trait is gonna help in some matchups for sure

If you played Injustice 2 you know his trait is still gonna be stupid, even with a longer cooldown.
Not to mention it makes his punisheable stuff safe

I'm just going to point out that freeze moves in IJ2 keep the opponent airborne... EX: Supergirl, Captain Cold, Green Arrow, etc.

The only exception I've seen so far is Superman but if he sees you activate trait, hold this 50/50 via b1 and IA Divebomb.

Characters with command grabs, like Scarecrow, can still get some damage off or go into plus frames on block.

Not downplaying how godlike his trait is but characters will have options this time around. The fact that he is going to be meter hungry will make clashing risky and most likely free on wakeup, especially with the Kenshi backdash. Its going to be interesting to see how this character develops.

MK9 Kenshi? I think not haha

 

[freerf245]

You can still juggle off of raw back 2 which is a major major +

 

[Thefish]

Hearing that from the deep pops you up a lot higher I wonder if you can do things like b123 db2mb dash forward b3, and f13 db2mb dash forward b3. if that stuff works it'll still give him massive one bar combo potential and easily hit confirmable options.

 

[Dankster Morgan]

I think Aquaman is gonna be my secondary, I fell in love with him from just his D2 lol

I believe this is his new BnB (from UndeadJim): b123->DB2 MB, b3, j3, f2 1+3

Looks like a reliable anti-air

And D1 Trident rush

His D2 and trait are really the only reason I'll main him.

I picked him some days ago to get used to the mechanics, since he was the only legacy character I like in terms of design.

Gonna be there to cover my sniper.

Also d2 into combo boyz.

 

[Dankster Morgan]

Just now starting to learn Aquaman in INJ 1 is nice because I don't need to worry about learning combos since they are gonna be RIP , just focus on his spacing and the utility of his specials.

Exactly why I picked him, from the returning cast I knew of at the time he appealed to me the most. Now 6-7 months later I know him back to front, his neutral is super impressive! Can't wait to try him in 2 weeks.

Aquaman speaks English AND Fish. Plus, he can swim AND breathe under water. Those with powers like super speed and strength or only can control space and time won't stand a chance.

 

[Dankster Morgan]

Out of the 3 returning characters I have interest in, he's the only one I'm considering maining.

 

[Thefish]

Thanks dude that's awesome to hear! Do you know the damage output to that combo? I will probably j3 s3>db2 to end as I do in igau.

The super strength, super senses, controll of 75% of the planet, his own army, and nearly unbreakable skin help too.

I'm not sure, but since the game isn't out yet we should wait and see. S3->DB2 may not be needed as an ender in IJ2 because you can choose which side the opponent lands on after F2 1+3

You mostly did that for oki. You could dash up and pressure them on wake up after S3 ftd. If f2 1+3 still has shitty hit advantage then s3 FTD will still be a thing

Undead Jim said it was 42-45%

I wonder what he thinks of humanity's idea that fish isn't meat.

When fish speak, do they use language, imagery, or do they simply convey sentiments?
