problem is ur opponent can attack while ur doing portal and stops the animation.

i definitely only use it sparingly its a big risk but i see it as no more of a risk than his awesome recovery on tackles
i also like usin it for style points ,, probably not de best idea... :16Bit <LOL wen did we get these faces

I think that in AA 1, 12, 12~EXUpknee~Teleslam
if you miss the second set of 12 (AA 1, 12, 12*missed*) you can at least dash and d4~*whatever*
That is if you have trouble landing it consistantly.

ok noobs heres a couple of setups ive found
b21 ex portal upknee 1 b1214 teleslam --the upknee whiffs unless they jump forward in which case u do an upknee starter combo ... if the portal hits u can also do b2 f33 cross over mix up----- or b2 f33 b214 < this is fairly gimmicky but it can catch people off guard as the overhead in 214 hits them on de way up :REO <lol so good

B21 doesn't leave enough stagger on the opponent so afterwards can't they just dash back and avoid the portal on time...?
yeah they can if they dash back or jump back u act accordingly most people get greedy and try jump forwards though

It seems like a cool reset but only people who would jump forward are scrubs no offense. If I saw this set up id immediately back dash.

If they ever make MK10 they seriously need to make noobs portal game actually viable...such a cool concept gone to waste. :C

What if normal portals were as quick as their EX variants
and EXPortals had an extra effect of sorts?

Or he could have 6 portals, 3 fast and 3 slow.

if they made f333 puts u in stagger mode like ermac`s 312 our pressure game will be much better.

too bad it doesnt.

im sure its written in here somewhere but someone briefly summarize the point of en slide? seems useless.

what is noobs meter best used for? i think breakers, en upknee and en portal.

it does extra damage an brings them closer to u
also dats wot i save my meter for i try use his portals as often as i can

Noobs EXSlide serves to make the opponent closer to Noob.
This would be perfect if Noobs CQC was fantastic.

Thought: Near portal, EXslide?

Also, how do you end Noob corner combos? I end them with d4~Portal.

I know Hito ends with EXUpknee, NJP, and then an EXPortal.

I tend to end with up knee, and then back dash and try to hold them in the corner. Apply pressure strings for more meter, etc.

Like
(ends combo with up knee, back dashes)
If the opponent jumps, up knee into another corner combo. Make them respect up knee in the corner.
dash forward and 1,2, up knee
d3 to throw
d4 to 212, up knee
b1214
etc. etc.

Basically, I try to keep them in the corner as long as possible, because similar to Sub, Noob flourishes in the corner, imo.

How do people usually react after a d4 - portal, Sage?
