They sent Superman to low mid tier and murdered deadshot only to release starfire later on lol and the complaining resumed all over again, nrs needs to be more careful with balancing.
I dont remember people complaining about zoning in MK X. This is pretty much the same. It's always either skewed towards pressure/chip or into zoning. History on repeat.
Superman was never low/mid tier.
People did complain about certain versions of Predator, Quan Chi, and Shinnok.
You didn’t really see him much after he got the hammer and when you did he was way easier to deal with.
Lets be real, that was really mild(true in a sense, i remember that some variations of mentioned characters were zoning/annoying type) and nowhere near to the complain level about 50/50 and overal pressure in MK X. MK1 feels the same way just zoning is even less of a concern than it was in MK X.
Who cares? He is advantageous and builds like 75%+ of one bar after every string.
Fair enough, and I agree that this is what happens when you remove zoning from the meta.
the only hit that isn't too risky to FB is the very last hit after which he's done 75% of the chip damage already
Well when probably at least 30% or so of the damage you’re taking is chip damage, I’d imagine the player losing to that would care.
Maybe flawless block is not fully understood.. you don't just loose chip for the hit you block... you loose chip for the entire pressure "wave" AFTER the block.. as in you loose chip until the attacker eases up on the pressure. So a single flawless block during the storm would mean you would loose chip during the entire cyrax twirl thing and maybe even beyond that. It is underlabbed and not full understood yet.. but it IS the next phase of the meta and it works like this but details and specifics are missing still. Like how long a pressure wave is, when and why dose chip restart and stuff like that.
You have missed the point entirely.
what I'm saying is Raiden's 2421 string, it's too risky to FB IMO because you don't know when the Storm's coming, so you eat all that chip. Then the first 4 hits of the storm are too rapid to FB consistently so you eat all that chip. Finally there's the last hit of the Storm which is the best time to FB, and I understand you avoid the Cyrax chip after but you eat a lot before that point.
Agree fully with radien uses cyrax better than baraka.
