Dear NRS and Kano Nation

[Hara-Killer]

Yeah Kano Parry should do more damage or like Liu , combo extend

 

[Bestnightmare]

this dude actually asked for a mid command grab

Spend 10 in practice mode and play at least 30 matches against legit players and you'll see why. Plus the animation looks weird asf when it ducked, Is he drunk and hugging air?

 

[BecomingDeath13]

LMAO

 

[PopUpWindow]

If you think his command grab is worthless because it can be neutral ducked, your opponents are open all day to lows...

I wish all my opponents rarely blocked low in fear of Kano's command grab.

 

[Apex Kano]

The point of my post was to show how unpolished he is and start an open conversation. I'm playing against high-level players, not low-level scrubs. The problems become extremely clear when people know how to exploit the character obvious lack of development. I'm not asking for all of these, just basic moves to work and more meta.

I agree with everything you mentioned. Kano needs faster movements up close and his moves look unfinished. Why his air Kano ball hits and the opponent bounces but you can't juggle of it? Real stupid.

I find it strange that people are actually happy with an incomplete game. You wanna know what's really stupid? Kanos D1 into kanoball on hit doesn't even jail. Which means Kano gets absolutely nothing on block or hit.

This is one of the few sites that shut you down if you bring up characters weaknesses.

Doesn't take a week to realize the problems and see the flaws.

I notice that. I feel like everyone feels the same way I feel, but afraid to say so. How do you feel about the list of problems I listed?

 

[DanableLector]

Some of these suggestions are a little much. If I had to change anything here's what I'd look for:

-Give me just a frame or two of extra advantage on d1 so jailing 21 and 22 is consistent.
-F12B2 is a joke. Make it high, mid, OH plz.
-Allow me to choose a side with 22 1+3 instead of just auto side switching.
-Kano's parry is disappointing. Starts up in like 12 frames, or close to that, isn't cool looking, and does 10%-ish non AMP'd. Meanwhile LK's parry is 8 frames, and launches... smh. I'm not sure what the best bet is for a parry buff, but I do think it needs improvement somewhere.
-I would allow 112 special cancel. I don't think that would be a problem at all.

 

[F6TUS6AT6R]

I see this thread is still going and I see this guy is still actually serious. Good meme, 10/10

 

[Red Hood MKX]

All these buffs are kinda overboard but he still needs some better mid options thats all i want

And better walk speed why does kano have the worse walk speed in the god dawm game

If you look at the list, I'm only asking a few things. The other stuff is stuff that should work. For example, Kanoball not whiffing and making things more consistent. There is no reason why tick grabs should be inconsistent and the list goes on.

 

[ShepherdOfFire]

I think Kano is a solid character right now. NRS needs to fix his hitbox on the f12 string and maybe make his molotov a bit faster on start up (because it's almost useless, I mean EB's acid is 34 frames and the move does almost the same thing). But overall I think Kano doesn't need anything more.

 

[Skedar70]

A one week buff thread. Geeez

 

[okhuskerfan]

Kano is not very good right now, comparatively to other characters. Not sure if that was intentional, as an act of continuing with non-balanced artificial tier-ing of characters? Leaving a move like Snake Bite on the table has me scratching my head a bit, or even the powerup Kano ball. The tourney variations leave a lot to be desired, as I'm sure some could say about their own mains. Bestnightmare is one of 2 highest level Kano players I've personally interacted with, so when he talks about my main, I listen up. Although I think all of the changes presented in the OP would make Kano a bit too strong, I concur with some of the changes to make him more competitive.

Changes I'd like to see to help even him out amongst the rest of the cast:

• F1 turned into a mid, and instead of +1, change it to safe like -3 or something.
• Reducing the distance of pushback on certain moves.
• 112 Special cancelable.
• B1, reducing the step back and making it tick throw.
• Full screen kano ball.

Nothing earth-shattering, but being able to contest a bit more with that f1 would be really good change for him. Right now, it's just a lot of risk without the big payoff.

 

[MagicMan357]

Dude stop, you suck ass. The only thing Kano doesn’t have is a good cqc mid. You scrubs are the worst. And you guys are still dumb enough to use tournament variations this shit is comical

 

[MK9]

Ummmmmmmm. Do I even respond. The only thing correct is 12 is horrible,

hey whats up

 

[Au Pays Natal Sol]

Anyone have any success in games with the Dirt Bag variation beyond its complaints?

 

[Red Hood MKX]

this fucking character best mid is 16 frames thats all i should have to say. jesus stop this shit already you dont know what your hell talking about if you say kano is fine.

Look at jax hes kano but much much better as a overall character he does everything kano can but 10 times better. Jax has got a forward advancing Mid that is plus on block are you fucking kidding, stop it already.

How about they make b3 plus 1 like jax or make f1 a mid or give us more hit advantage of our d1 so i dont have to be frame perfect online when im fighting against a dude with wifi connection.

Kano needs help anyone that says different cannot be trusted
