Well the obvious answer is increase start up frames, make both versions of teleport punishable mid flight and increase recovery frames. Apparently the engine can't handle this and it will ruin all of his combos. I think Microsoft fucked up, NRS was forced to release him prematurely and now were paying the consequences.
Aquaman is a character that really contends with Scorpion.Well then, back to not giving a fuck. It's early, i guess I missed that. It's weird because as Aquaman I shut down so much of scorpion's apparently broken shit, I have no problem with the character at all. So I really have no opinion. However there are opinions that I trust.
I honestly don't know why people aren't complaining about aquaman. He is a fucked up character. Every character pretty much has to play his game. I guess he doesn't beat characters as badly as scorpion, but I also believe he doesn't lose a single matchup (this can change though, I need more kf experience). So its kind of like a kenshi kabal situation lol.Aquaman is a character that really contends with Scorpion.

Of course you do. You play that broken ass character in a suit of armor.I think Scorpion is fine.
watOf course you do. You play that broken ass character in a suit of armor.
It's not my fault. If it's in the game everyone can use it.Of course you do. You play that broken ass character in a suit of armor.
Actually, yes.Explain. And please don't tell me his aqua shield gimmicks compete with 7f start up teleport.
At the highest level of play Scorpion destroys Aquaman. Aquaman is a character that relies on pressuring you to come to him, which Scorpion just does better.
Yea but only a scumbag would play him and feel like a good person. Has unblockables and shit. He even spirit bombs you like a damn DBZ character. Like NRS what were you thinking.It's not my fault. If it's in the game everyone can use it.
stranger using dry humor that could easily be interpreted as being serious. in future posts might i suggest adding this "( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)" to your posts to avoid confusion next timeffs idiot, I was joking chill out
I haven't read this thread except for this last little bit.... are you just exagerating with the 7 frame teleport or am I missing something huge here. Anyway, Aquaman can AA scorpion pretty much 1oo percent of the time, his trait gets him out of mixups, Scorpion cannot punish FTD outside of close range, etc. He forces scorpion to actually play the game somewhat.Explain. And please don't tell me his aqua shield gimmicks compete with 7f start up teleport.

I think KF could slightly beat him now but if there is a trait nerf the MU will flip.I honestly don't know why people aren't complaining about aquaman. He is a fucked up character.

Get the FUCK outAll this talk about Aquaman and water shield makes me think that Killer Frost needs an ice shield...
DO IT NRS
Not to get too off topic, but I feel like aquaman can actually keep kf out. outside of a little more than sweep range, she can't slide because it gets hit by b12 on reaction, she can't jump because of d2 (even air dash doesn't save her), dashing against Aqua on the ground is never a good idea, etc. I think it is 5-5. If the nerfs hit Kf, undisputable adv Aquaman. But I def want to play the mu more offline.I think KF could slightly beat him now but if there is a trait nerf the MU will flip.
She should be able to move while it is active as well. I am thinking somewhere around a 300 frame duration to start, leaving room for possible buffs later.Get the FUCK out

The problem is that right now any block pressure from KF leads into her 50-50. His trait is awesome but it only effectively slightly reduces the damage at this point. I play both characters at a pretty high level. I could definitely see it being even, but there is no point discussing until the next damage patch which should solidify the MU if it is true, IMO.Not to get too off topic, but I feel like aquaman can actually keep kf out. outside of a little more than sweep range, she can't slide because it gets hit by b12 on reaction, she can't jump because of d2 (even air dash doesn't save her), dashing against Aqua on the ground is never a good idea, etc. I think it is 5-5.

Oh, you mean how the game is actually intended?...But nah everyone wants to hold back to block.
I ususaly duck a lot against him. Ill absorb a few hellfires too, cause as soon as he whiffs a Spear or Teleport..Its dash in and whoop ass...Or whiff punish that tele. Ive seen so many whiffed teleports im used to punishing it now..
So ask yourself...that 9% hellfire or my 41% Shazam Session?
Jump hell fire on reaction. You have to be looking for it but it really isn't that hard.You've played shitty scorpions if, after a few hellfires hit, they decide to throw in a random teleport. Anybody that has played the game for more than a day would just idle with hellfires until you come to them. A big part of the reason that Scorpion is broken is that he forces you to jump forward (to avoid his hellfires), at which point he has a million options for murdering you. And if that doesn't work, he just has to alternate between j3 at different ranges and his teleport. It's practically impossible to defend against this. And then, again, there's his hellfire which is unblockable.
I have a lot of respect for the top competitors in this game, but as a casual player, it's insulting that their response is "crouch and punish the teleport!" As if THAT'S the only thing that makes him broken.
