Question re: downplay

More fancy bullshit talk. Using a lot of words but not saying anything. This tactic of yours is not uncommon on the internet. You like to take your time and put together these long winded responses laced with all kinds words that show off your vocabulary because you think it makes you sounds smart and takes the focus off your paper thin arguments.

I'm pretty over this whole discussion to be honest. You suck at the game and cant accept it's not the top tiers fault so you take to the forums and bitch and condescend to everyone that disagree's.

Lk is very strong and probably the strongest in the game right now and the volumes of LK's I play daily just help me get better and better win or lose.
My responses have been shorter turnaround than yours. Can you give me an example of a paper thin argument presented in my last post? Like for instance hyperfocusing on vocabulary rather than the contents of a post? Your strategy seems to be swearing up and down you're addressing what I've said while simultaneously dancing around proclaiming there's nothing to address.

Klassic deflection. I also asked you a question point blank which you've wisely opted not to answer.

Liu Kang is definitely the best (not 'probably', nice subtle downplay tho) character in the game and this opinion is shared by everyone with a shred of credibility. Yes, we all continue to improve at the game the more we play it - you are not unique in this capacity.

Have a nice day.
 
still not getting the whole post huh. I see you understood a small portion and that is a vast improvement. Keep trying to comprehend what people are writing. Take your time and practice you will get there. Hay and maybe you can take that new found skill back to the game as well.
That is quite literally the extent of what you've contributed in this thread. Seriously. Go back and read it.
 
No Sonic Fox isn't lazy cause he is searching for a way to counter him.
What is the basis for your complaint then? He's hard to fucking beat we get it. But shut up about it already and deal with it.
Its not only Fox, its Dragon, its Foxy, and so on. And its the uphill battle you need to do in terms to beat the character. The ease top Kang player move through this guy is ridiculous. And before someone start crying about it, no one said top Kang player are not skilled.
And the character doesnt have a bad matchup obviously.

So big mouth when would you like to play? Put up or shut up time.

ok I'll spoon feed it to you. You asked is liu the most downplayed character. The answer would be no. Everybody who has replied has said he is top tier. That was what was said in the first part of my reply today but again you seem to have trouble reading an entire reply.

Glad I could help

"Put up or shut up" in this case is a false dilemma, as I've already illustrated how a set between us has no relevance to the discussion at hand, and certainly doesn't spare you the burden of adequately addressing my posts.

YOur posts are addressed over and over by myself and others. You are never going to see anyone else's point and if you even did you wouldn't admit it so its not worth my time to continue to debate you.
Speaking of false dilemma's. A burden to address your posts? LMAO

honestly i think nerfing top tier isnt a way to reach a full balanced fighting game. think about it why is smash is well balanced and marvel vs capcom games ?

Smash cause there is very few top tiers
Marvel cause everyone has broke shit.

just buff the low tiers so there is no more real low tiers and thats it its ok to have 1 character above the rest. its no big deal if you still have 10-15 very strong character that also have broken tools but isnt just has good.

i dont know if i make sense there

Your 'point' thus far has been: "you lose to Liu Kang, git gud." Period. End of. The other guy has been regurgitating the same thing. You've even gone so far as to imply the validity of my statements hinges in a set with you. You've lost the plot, chum.

I asked if Liu was the most downplayed character. Your response? "Wow another I can't beat Liu post."

Anything after was just you talking in circles and reiterating the charge. You left the thread after I showed you the error in your logic but apparently saw fit to come scurrying back and blathering on about the same thing that was put to rest earlier.

Any internet medium where MK11 is a point of discussion is riddled with downplay, including this site. There are entire threads dedicated to it. It's not up for debate whether it happens, because that's plain to see. The question was whether it ran more rampant than the downplay of the prior season(s).

Look up "power creep" and apply it to fighting games. That's what happens when you only buff and never nerf. The collective power of the entire cast is shifted upwards, which is not always what a game calls for. Some things are too strong and not only in relation to everything worse. Marvel is the perfect example. That game is power creeped out the ass. Everything is touch of death. Is it a fun game? Sure. But it's busted as hell.

If everything is equally broken there is arguably an innate 'balance,' but the answer to say Geras isn't to give every character 1 bar 45% bnbs nor is the answer to Liu to pile KBs and looping 9f staggers on everyone. It's to tone those two down so we get to play the game more, not less.

again judging by the response in this thread I would say no. Nobody has downplayed in this thread and that's even after the click bait title and the first post you made clearly trying to bait out as many downplayers as you could.

Sorry bro fail.

It's been fun though ggs

English lesson time. "Most" is relative. He could be downplayed by a grand total of 2 people on Earth and still be the 'most' downplayed. Whether or not it was present in this thread specifically is moot.

It has indeed. Best of luck in your future endeavors.

Seriously @lordlosh stop saying Liu Kang is BROKEN! He is top Tier, no doubt. He may be the best character at the moment in MK11. But broken is something else. Please watch some SF 2 Super Turbo Akuma Play, that is what a broken character looks like. Broken chars get banned at Tournaments, I ain´t seeing that happen to Liu Kang
 
Again you should read my previous posts. Everyone have different opinion about what broken mean. You also cant compare games. Kang was pretty broken in MKXL as well, but he didnt get banned from tournaments ,right ?
There is other character as well. And can go all the way back to MK9 and talk about brokenness.

MK11 is already more balanced than any of the games in either series.

You should Google what "broken" means……...

I´m out of this discussion now, makes no sense to talk to people with such a mindset. Keep on going how "broken" Liu Kang is in your opinion, just makes you look more and more of a whiner

See this is where opinion doesn't matter. Broken is an absolute. It's not subjective. Broken is a word that gets thrown around a lot.
Like the other guy said check out Akuma in SF2 Super Turbo. Or infinites in certain builds of UMK3. Those are examples of broken.
Broken means that said character has a tactic or set up that is impossible to counter and or block and its almost never that way on purpose from the devs. Broken tactics or set ups come from oversights or gaps in game design that allow for something to be done by a character with no possible recourse.
Broken is not a measure of a characters strength in the META of a game.
 
Sorry but our definition for OP/Broken is completely different.

Broken doesnt mean this. Go check the definition. :D
