Normalize grab immunity.
Not sure if anyone answered you, but that move you're seeing is the new universal meter burn dash mechanic. I don't know how I feel about it, yet. I guess it's ok considering everyone can do it. Could be broken for the characters that build crazy meter, though. Like....imagine a character like Mileena being able to meter burn dash pretty much constantly.
I don't know how I feel about having movement options that cost meter. That just seems so odd to me. Hopefully it's vulnerable to throws or something. I don't see how they could put in a completely invincible safe side switching movement option in a fighting game.

Harley's super is all automatic after the initial slide hits, it just doesn't look like it.
I counted the hits and the combo counter only said 7. But if you include the initial slide there is 8 ticks of damage. The yellow current damage part of the health bar counts all 8 ticks but now the combo counter.

Damn. I only saw the arms and legs in the new vids. Have you seen a report somewhere? That sounds incredible.

I swear to god if there are any 70 frame activating traits while she has five for free I will rage.
I never understood what is even the point of putting in moves that take forever that are supposed to be an actual usable part of their kit and not giving the character any way to really use it.

I am def. hyped for injustice 2. Having never played Injustice before.. do the stats listed in the below image actually impact gameplay in anyway? If so, How?

just curious - Based on comics, wouldn't WW have more HP than Grodd...
They weren't in Injustice 1. I hope there actually isn't any affect with those other ratings.

WoWo realistically would have more strength than about everyone besides Superman/Zod/Doomsday.

WoWo realistically would probably have the most HP, given her durability and healing factor on par with Wolverine.

WoW realistically would have the highest defense given her natural durability, godly weapons which defend against everything, and thousand years of training against everything.

WoWo realistically would beat everyone in Injustice 1v1.

Realistically, according to the comics.

I understand, but there is no window to tech / escape the second hit (the exploison) if there was, she would never be able to land it, even if the explosion was unblockable.

You have to keep in mind, NRS (attempts to) walks the line between casual and hardcore. They try to make a game that is interesting for button mashers and tournament level players. It is morally commendable, but technically almost impossible. So you have to take the meat with the gristle whichever side of the fence you're on. We get a technical game with a bunch of moves with no competitive use, they get a casual game with a bunch of mechanics they never both to understand.

Capcom gives no fucks about the casual crowd, so even though there are plenty of colorful characters casual players would like to play, they will never win a single round with fang or necalli or karin because they are technical as shit.

Ergo, Cyborg has a shitty trait because somebody at NRS said it would be cool if the robot guy could self repair (cause thats what he does in the comics) but the balance team was like, okay but that's going to be broken as shit in tournament. The compromise? Cyborg has execution heavy IAFBs for us, and a useless healing trait for them.
 
Ed Boon said in the interview that Black Manta might be in the game, which pretty much confirm he won't be imo =(
He is the villain for the movie. I expect him to be in.

Okay so a couple of thoughts. Since Injustice 2 has a bigger roster, I expect more frequent reveals. I think the next one might be at New York Comic Con in October and it will probably be The Flash and Green Arrow.

That's when the new seasons premiere on CW. Flash premiers the 4th with Arrow the 5th and NYCC is the 6th.

Also, I think the cinematic and cut-scenes for this game are going to be so sick.

I'm waiting on the Dr. Fate reveal, I think the internet might break that day. Lets hope he's not like an Ermac reskin.

That's a good idea, but I hope they continue with the pattern of one new character and one returning. Also, one male and one female. So I think Green Arrow & Black Canary could be possible as well for the NY Comic Con reveal.

It very well might be The Flash and Captain Cold then.

Things I dislike so far is the Stephen Hawking announcer and a game with nice colors, I hope there's more bright stages.

These dark stages are unappealing to me.
