REPTILE CONFIRMED #1 ZONER IN MKXL! IVAN OOZE TIER!
Quan zoning tier list: Summoner>Warlock>Sorcerer.I still believe Sorcerer Quan is on par with Summoner's zoing
In order to give the community even more perspective, I think Cybernetic Kano, who is considered low tier in Mortal Kombat X, would be a solid mid tier, if not high mid tier, in Mortal Kombat 9. He has a mid-hitting projectile, a multiple-hitting EX projectile that is advantageous on block, an exceptional low poke (d+4), good long range poke (f+4), very good uppercut, a safe, double-hitting armor attack that hits twice, an unsafe armor attack that launches, and above average corner damage and set ups. Cybernetic Kano would perform well against all but the most broken Mortal Kombat 9 characters, but unfortunately some people at NRS got too carried away with the best pressure and 50/50 mix ups that I have ever seen in my 10+ years of playing fighting games. Perhaps Marvel offers even more offensive options. I really do not know. Nonetheless, I never want to see this type of trash gameplay again.
I don't know man, I always hear how balanced is awful at doing what he does best which is zoning, and how tele flurry is really weak but in an actual match i think its not as easy to beat him.None of Kenshi's variations can zone properly imo.
The only time kenshi really puts a whooping on someone is when they become impatient and don't respect the options he has at a distance. He is lacking in alot of areas but he can still dish it out if you don't know how to get in on him. I agree with you though sometimes he is very hard to deal with. That is coming from someone who mains unbreakable lol.I don't know man, I always hear how balanced is awful at doing what he does best which is zoning, and how tele flurry is really weak but in an actual match i think its not as easy to beat him.
pretty sure michelangelo flawlessed someone in a tournament with just summoner zoningEveryone always says summoner has good zoning but really what even makes it good? Just because he can do a high skull into a rune for free mid screen on block? It's cool and all but really what makes it so good? How does he even really start it. Never fought a summoner that zones they always just jump around like an idiot and try to 50/50 you
didn't know this was a thing people actually did... respectThat is coming from someone who mains unbreakable lol.
Yeah I've been using unbreakable and cryomancer since launch but most of the respect has to go to all those guys who made the unbreakable threads because there was alot of stuff I didn't even know unbreakable could do but that update way back when helped alot too.didn't know this was a thing people actually did... respect
No Shinnok.... This breaks my heart. I've main shinnok since day 0. Hellsparks alone controls 3/4 of the screen, dark beam has good speed and he also has a decent unblockable .was actually just arguing about this

Tremor Aftershock
Some of them get whiffed. His horizontial Astral Projection can be passed through from its low area. As Sub Zero, try to slide through this AP. It's not that weak. The problem is that this character is totally broken. I played against a friend who started learning Balanced Kenshi, and this is why I knew what's going on there.I don't know man, I always hear how balanced is awful at doing what he does best which is zoning, and how tele flurry is really weak but in an actual match i think its not as easy to beat him.
Speaking of Ronin zoning, watching Hayetai zone with that character is some of the most entertaining stuff to watch in MKXThis thread presents a bit of a gray area.
Do you mean the best zoner, in a zoner vs zoner fight?
The best zoner, when trying to keep out a rushdown character?
Gunslinger and Reptile become great zoners when fighting someone that can't really contest their slower projectiles.
Ronin Takeda isn't as oppressive as Boneshaper when trying to get in, but in a zoning fight, Ronin wins.
You bring up a good point . Anytime I play against Shaolin I feel like I have shackles on my ankels. I can't move anywhere.Zoning is more described as "Keeping people in your ideal spacing (or zone) using your resources" and less "using projectiles to keep them from getting in".
This means Shaolin KJ should be in the talks.
Low and a mid projectile that he can control, mb for two hits, up kick anti airs from half screen as well as up arrow, lunge kick if they start running in which knocks them back 3/4 screen.
I was looking for zoners like your first example.This thread presents a bit of a gray area.

The best you can do is a shitty colbert gif? Have some coffee and try again
really wanted to put shinnok but wound cowboy was been tweaking me out latelyNo Shinnok.... This breaks my heart. I've main shinnok since day 0. Hellsparks alone controls 3/4 of the screen, dark beam has good speed and he also has a decent unblockable .
Never the less great list. Aftershock is a interesting pick. His air attack is absoulutly nuts. One of the best moves in the game.
