Kitana General Discussion

[kevkopdx]

It’s her fwd throw Brutality. Basically Mileena’s MK2 Fatality/MKX piercing Brutality.

Well I’m glad I have it now, it’s an easy one!

I like it to, it's a fun one to use.

 

[UghGetOuttaHere]

I came here just to say that I really am enjoying using the Half Blood stance, but that krushing blow requirement is ridiculous.

 

[Peter818]

anyone got a use for Kitanas 21 string and its followups it feels like a dead move to me having a 13 frame high that only plus +1 even with range

Only for the Brutality lol

 

[gitblame]

Yeah. 2 and 3 could be faster. Why would you use any of those moves and strings from those moves when your B1 mid has better range, is also 13f, has better frames on block. I only use 32 in some combos. Also if 3 was faster you could do better corner combos.

2 and 21222 just have cool brutalities. No other utlity XD

 

[Juxtapose]

Yup, I only use Back Punch for the Brutality. I never use 21222 at all. I don't think I've ever seen that Brutality, even though I have it unlocked.

Saw/performed F2222 once.

 

[Peter818]

Dam I know almost every move was designed with purpose to them whether it be an anti air, pressure tool, stagger tool, or combo extender I even went as far as asking Semiij but got no resposne so I guess it is a dead move :/

 

[Tanya-Fan-28]

Has anyone done fan lift on meaty/oki?

 

[Error404]

Hey guys. I really want to play Kitana , but I can't cancel b231 at all. Any tips?

Sorry, to clarify, you mean when you do B2,3,1, you can't get Fan Lift or something to come out after?

 

[Vhozite]

Me when I use b231 but the opponent was jumping when he got hit.

Yup , fan doesn't come out

 

[Peter818]

Do the entire combo in one motion b231db2 just like that. Also try turning off release check in the controller settings

 

[DarksydeDash]

Well.. Her Highborne sai KB now lets you get a jump in after.. That's cool I guess..

BTW, found a hilarious new hitbox issue where all the razors don't connect on females if Kitana is on the left side.

slow clap

 

[Vhozite]

What is the deal with Edenian razors? This moves seems absurdly inconsistent. Also what does the "remain in place: Hold forward" refer to under Razors input commands?

Also while I'm here what is Royal Protections frame data? It's listed as 5f startup and 22 recovery but the active frame data box in training mode says 60f startup/59 recovery.

 

[dark55]

Revert edenian razors back to high...ruined highborn only damage advantage in the corner making razors a mid.

 

[Juxtapose]

I'm on PC, so I do not yet have the new patch, but I still think they should simply swap out some abilities for the Tournament Variations.

For Fan-Fare, replace Royal Protection with Low Fan.

For Highborn, replace Edenian Razors with, well, something that lets us retain Fan Lift. I think Edenian Razors is a cool move conceptually, but not in actual practice.

 

[DaBlueBonnet]

Give me Low fan, and groundwar in the same variation. Then let the 50/50 mix up begin.

 

[DarksydeDash]

So after labbing a bit with highborne, I have some thoughts and tips/tricks that I think deserve it's own thread.

There's a lot more here than I thought previously.

Looking forward to reading said thread.

 

[DavesHotnJuicy]

Just played a match against a sonya. Still getting zoned out. I forfeited the match lol.

 

[Peter818]

So her 21 string is an autoshimmy. Its not the best in the game in fact it might be the slowest one but its something. 21222 gives lots of hit adv 21434 is more damaging ender but gives hardly any hit adv for oki. Found some good uses with this string with the highborn variation. Would yall like me to record a vid demonstration the use of 21 and the highborn variation buffs?

 

[Vhozite]

So can the princess really not break 200 midscreen in Highborn?
