Agreed. At the least remove them from ranked along with wakeup rolls. Good players don't need crutches to win.

Yeah them having armor is a bit much
Especially when you half the roster has a full screen fatal blow
This. This right here. This is part of what I meant when I said "cancer" in my earlier post. It's fucking ridiculous that the "comeback" mechanic can result in a tough fight being lost by the person who made one good read because they're sitting at 30.000001% while their read put the opponent at <30%. Suddenly, that "comeback mechanic" becomes "you made a mistake in not getting low enough to have access to yours and giving me access to mine."
Well at least we wouldn't have watch the entire animation play out!
that aint gonna happen homie. With out the throws opening people up with certain characters would be like opening a can of soup with ur butt cheek.
It’s not really available once per match though. They get it every 5 seconds until they hit it, assuming they are sub 30%. It cost nothing and many of them are safe/fullscreen 10-15f start up. I don’t really have too many issues with the mechanic other than it’s completely free. Some characters like EB can completely freeze neutral with their FB and that’s pretty silly as well.
Listen, son, respect is earned! If I'm beating my opponent's ass and not making any mistakes with my pressure, then it's my win. I shouldn't have to stop going, because my opponent gets a free armored 30% move. How about the pro-crutch crowd can learn how to time wakeups, zone out of close range, and space properly for whiff punishes? You guys are the ones that need to adapt. From my experience, the fatal blow users are always the D2 mashers, jumpers, and hitbox pirates. It's one big hivemind operating/playing the same. Don't worry, I doubt they'll be removed. But changes need to happen. More people are catching on as the fanboyism wears off.
If the word "respect" doesn't work for you, I'll change it to "play smart" : bait and punish if possible.
It's unique because you can use it only once per match. Wether you use it early or late has a direct impact on the remaining of the match. When you have it, the opponent cannot blindly rush you down. You have the opportunity to mount a "clean" come-back. In a nutshell, the longer you keep it, the better it is.
Regular combos are not something you can use to make your point. Damage like Barakas or Sonyas shouldnt be in the game to begin with, its too much and a whole different topic. Thats why i didnt mention it, its a FB topic not a "broken damage" topic. But to answer you, yes these damage issues should be addressed and nerfed as well. As said thats beside the point though, characters with high damaging combos can do even more damage with FB. So all of a sudden you dont die just cuz you are below 40% but because you are below 50/60/70%. Further there are some character that cant kill you with 1 read at 30% health but you can kill them with 1 read at 50%+with FB so they are more in trouble than you just for having the lifelead. So your chances got better for being behind and his got worse for being ahead... yea seems fair lol
Fair opinion.
That even anti-airs, too.
And previously you might have Xray and your opponent might not? One person still had the advantage. How is that any more fair than in MK11?
The cost is the FB itself. You land it and it's gone, it ain't coming back. So you got your guaranteed ~32%, but the next round you can't rely on that as your "I win" button. So not only is there a cost, there's also the same risk/reward as the oldschool xray.
I disagree. While I'm not a fan of armored FBs either, that would just make the disparity between them even greater.
