Yeah man... Cyrax was doing those insane bomb unblockables... and Liu Kang with that one damn string that carries to the corner lol... I kinda know how to handle Cyrax, but I *still* have no idea what to do against Liu. It was great though!

I thought it was really funny how I had an easy time against most people, vs you was pretty close, and then atl red scraped me off his shoe. Definitely have to take liu kang to the lab so that doesn't happen again.

Naw don't worry about it bro, you're good. It seems Reptile suffers against Cyrax, possibly a bad match-up for sure. I can stuff all your wake-up options with a meaty Net. I can get the lead and sit back spamming Bombs and Nets. Cyrax can keep you out pretty efficiently, but is even more dangerous up close. His command grab to unblockable bomb set-up is too good. His 62% off of 1 meter is also so nasty. I'm definitely thinking he's above Liu Kang, but that just cause he's a lot more fun to use, lol.
 
Ggs to all the mk players that showed up my kitana did pretty good but I need to lvl up my match up knowledge to liu and raiden :) any tips

Mid-Full screen Cyrax's options aren't very good, net is too slow to punish anything so it's easier to get around bombs and Reptile's zoning is hard to deal with. Taking advantage of that plus punishing mistakes with kabal dash and his slow teleport on reaction is probably how Reptile needs to handle the match-up.

Cyrax is hard to deal with once he's close, and he doesn't have to deal with anyone's wake-up options with the right set-ups. His 50/50's are ridiculously good.
 
I hope you guys are already planning for May's Revival. Really want to come out. This'll be my first tournament hopefully.
 
sup ppl i was jus messing around with cyrax tonite labbing him up a little on ps3 and i noticed i think they patched a few things about some of his set ups some of this stuff is not happening no more such as a net to bomb to standing 4 if the opponent is in a net cyrax will not throw a bomb out he will open his chest and nothing comes out might be a stealth patch anybody else wanna test this?

He could never throw out a bomb on a netted target. That would just be ridiculous.
 
@ Eshi... You coming to tech tonight? What about you Juggs?

Actually the better question is who all is coming tonight? I am trying to figure out how many MK people we will have there.

I might come around tonight but I'm leaving for boston tomorrow really early in the morning and won't be back until next saturday. Still I'll try to make it there.
