When are fatal blows getting removed?
Never.
I thought you were stoked AF.
I know! I generally try to be optimistic but I was so close to my perfect roster
This may be the case. All these so called demi god and god players can't stop using them. It seems like they rely on them too. I have about 1,200 losses in total. Half of those would literally be wins if fatal blows were excluded. People need their crutches I guess.
Sounds like a whole lot of excuses to me.
Typical assumption from the MK community.
Yes, I represent the whole community in its entirety, not just calling it how I see it as an individual.
You all say the same thing like a hive mind, is my point. The next person I'm about to respond to also said the same thing as you.
Not an argument. Judging by how you all defend such a scrub mechanic proves how bad of player you are. You can't win without it. Do you have Xbox or ps4? I'm dying to know.
I don't care what others say. Just see a lot of post like yours, complaining about Fatal Blows because you dunno how to deal with them.
Just don’t respond to certain people man. I was the same cuz it’s just tiring having to explain basic things to people who think things are just spam and unfair tactics
And I see plenty of posts like yours. Fanboys that shoot down any valid complaints some may have with the game. Give me one reason why fatal blows should remain in ranked.
it is an unfair tactic, because nobody should be rewarded for losing.
There's nothing to solve. Fatal Blows aren't going anywhere, so asking for their removal from the game is pointless. They can be tweaked and such, but that's about it.Only a moneymatch can solve this
I don't need to. It's not going anywhere. You just have to learn to deal with it. The issue doesn't lie with me, it lies with you. Adjust.
If you’re getting hit with the same “unfair tactic” it’s time to evaluate what you’re doing. All of us have lost to a fatal blow, but I doubt any of us have lost to them as much as you’re claiming.
Let's evaluate:
Adjust.
Adjusting means giving your opponent a chance to win. That's stupid and counterintuitive to the objective of the game. That's why they shouldn't be in ranked. Ranked is supposed to be competitive. Variations are limited in ranked for the same reason. I have adjusted now that I'm experienced. But that doesn't make the mechanic any less scrub friendly.
Adjust more.
If the opponent can’t stop your pressure how and when are they getting an opportunity to fatal blow you? I’m assuming your meaty timing is on point so they shouldn’t be able to wake up fatal blow. Even if they were to wake up roll or wake up attack you could just block or punish since all that is negative, death on whiff or punishable. Honestly don’t know what to tell you, there’s no excuse to getting blown up by the same thing over and over again so that’s completely on you. It’s one thing if its something you’re not used to but that’s not the case so practice.
You didn't seem to understand the point of my last post, so I'll break it down a little bit more so you can. When I first started out, yes, I got hit be them often. At an "intermediate" level, I still got hit with them. Nowadays, I usually get hit with them from players who are about the same level as me, because I show them too much respect. For example, if I'm having a good match with somebody, and he isn't using his, I'll assume he won't at all since he's a good player. It isn't until the very end when I'm winning that he decides to perform a fatal blow like a punk.
It's not black and white like you're making it out to be and you know it. Sometimes there are instances where you have to pause in fear of wakeup rolls or wakeup attacks; two more mechanics added for the casual playerbase. Everybody gets second and third chances in this game. Even braindead Kang has to let up to a point.
