MKXL Balance Patch Confirmed (UPDATED)

bye felicia
Do you use Cyber? According since the beginning of this game; evertime I suggest buffs to Cyber, "he doesn't need it" is the response. So thats is why Cyber is still underused and outzone still today
I play Commando, Possessed, and Fisticuffs. And I'm not that good with any of them. But that doesn't mean I want redundant buffs just because other characters have them. That's not how you balance a game, that's how you break a game.

Dude, everyone would be better with a safe overhead. Everyone in the game. So you don't want your already solid character to rocket to alien status, you're still asking for an unnecessary buff.
how about you givce me an example of how it would make Cybernetic Broke? drop the Unnecessary comments and he doesnt need it comments, and Explain how it could possibly break the game?

From where i stand Every character has that. Why is it so bad in your mind, that Kano Cybernetic should not get a overhead to condition?



Im litteraly woindering if you are being Genuine? do you actually believe Cybernetic is one Adjustment from Alien status?

count how many characters have multiple mixups, and hoiw many have safe ones. i said one of them Reptile has a Plus 2 OH. How many more, bet the number is more than half. if they don't have them safe allready they can make them safe. what im getting at here is simply, the Standard of the game is just that, OH's and Lows and making them safe or tools to do so.

Reason Alien is broke is having that plus Jailing plus Restands, plus Vortex from Air Acid blood(connect it higher and its plus 11) then on top of that he can do that shit from full screen and stay safe.

Cybernetic was once considered bottom 10, i don't believe thats true, but giving him an Overhead will not hurt anyone trust me. the cast can handle it just fine. they are better equiped than Cybernetic is even if he gets a Safe OH he can use to condition people so he can open them up with a low.


Im sure Most including @Apex Kano agree with me on that?

Try him if you have curiosity and you will see. The idea of the variation is cool though. Cool enough to keep me playing him in his current state. Best brutality in the game, also. But it sucks to see his potential wasted.
We've done this time and time again. I play Fisticuffs. I'm very bad, and he's not doing me any favors. But I still win plenty of matches because Johnny's kit is super solid. Maybe at the top level he gets steam rolled, but I think we all know those characters are going to get fucking tanya'd. In the mean time we got every low tier main in the city clammoring to replace them. Cause have all forgotten how great the Quan Chi / Kung Lao show of 2015 was.

I think FC needs to be fixed. Consistency on hitboxes, cancels that always work. A safe mid screen way to turn on the buff. But that's it. The game already has an FF Kang and he's a fucking pain in the ass. Do we really need two?

Tell you what Ask the original Kano mains what it feels like to use Cybernetic against most of the cast, No overhead, while they are blocking all your lows, and coming back with BS pressure, OH to lows and Lows to overheads that jail into guess what more overheads, or Tekadas EX kuni pressure and guess game. then look at Cyber and see if you actually believe that he is even close to broken like Alien?????
Again, you have an overhead. A great one. You don't like to use it because its unsafe. You like to make those "EVERYBODY CAN FUCKING DO IT ITS SO UNFAIR" posts without examples or any information. Like 3 characters can do what you're complaining about. Alien isn't even one of them.

I'm sorry Takeda and Sonya have incredible high low bullshit. I play Kenshi. Do you know how much I hate those characters? Would speeding up f+4 by about 15 frames so it can 50/50 with d,f+4 help? Sure, but that's not solving the problem, that's making two problems.

If there was any (literally any) evidence that adding a guest somehow subtracts an in universe character I would be on board but that's not even remotely how it works.
There isn't any, but I would rather see them focus on adding more MK characters as DLC instead of having guest characters. Like, there were 4 guests in MKX. That could have been 4 MK characters people have been really requesting to see. It's my personal feelings on the matter.

On top of that, I never really cared for any of the characters they've released as a guest. They've been iconic movie characters, sure, but I'm not much of a movie person, so seeing them in instead of like Fujin, Baraka, Reiko, or whatever other character you could think of doesn't really excite me. On the flipside, I really enjoyed seeing Scorpion in Injustice. Scorpion could really fit in as a comic superhero/supervillain/anti-hero or whatever you wanna call him. Jason, Freddy, and Leatherface, while worked in really well, just don't ever come off as characters that would show up in the MK universe to me.

Flame fist can be annoying, but he's fair.
Even with the proposed buffs, fisticuffs would probably be worse than him though.

By the way, I was pesimistic about fisticuffs buffs, but today "Something" told me that FC might get love, man;)

Cybernetic getting an overhead wouldn't be too good if it's designed to not really add much other than something to get you to stand up. Kang and Kitana don't even have overheads that lead to anything, yet it's a nice option (especially with Kang).

100% id rather have Noob and others in the game instead of Guest characters. me personally miss all my childhood characters i played with on MK2/MK3/UMK3. if KP3 comes out i hope they skip the Guest characters and stick to MK Characters. it would be so much cooler and gineune to the game to bring back Frost, Noob, Nightwolf, Sindel and maybe Fujin(never played with him) but think it could be cool, just the idea of another God along side Raiden. just need some Tag Kombat and we are peachy.
I honestly want to see NRS take an Armageddon route and make a huge ass roster of characters. Would it possibly be grossly unbalanced? Yeah, but I give no fucks. Armageddon is my favorite MK partially because of the character selection lol.

or What was that one PC one i played i think it was called MUGEN UMK3, that shit was dope, and so much fun let me find it, itll bring you back to when we actually had a huge cast, ohh and Sub Zero Mythologies was fun as hell too: wasn't that fan made?but yeah 100% on board, id trow my money and time into MKXL with giant roster:

It was something like this: but any of these pics can be altered on different version of MuGEN:









this one is just a joke: but i played versions that had this many, they are fun. and i think you can get them today just download Mugen and place files.







some guy on deviant art made this MK11 roster:


How cool would this one be for MK11 or even a remastered MKXL lol

lol funny cuz i play Kenshi, and cyrax.


And there is alot more than 3 characters with safe OH's and Lows. I have mentioned them before, no need to Mention all of them again. just for fun sake ill mention a few to jog your memory.... you said only 3 have safe oh's/lows that can be made safe or allready are?: Reptile, Alien, Kano CT, Sonya, Cassie, Raiden, Mileena, Kotal, Jason, Scorpion, Sub Zero, Cyber sub Zero, Cyrax, Sektor, Smoke and like i said in case you forgot is characters that have A Safe oh or low or a way to make them safe. and almost every character in the cast has at least one of each.

I really don't undewrstand where you are coming from with this only 3 characters have safe mixups, like really everyone has them, only a couple do not have both Low's and Overheads. thats Kitana, Kano commando/Cybernetic, and really noone else. they all have one, even Liu kan g has an Overhead two of them 113 and B2. and whats funny is what was asked for was an overhead like Liu kangs B2.

and what about this FF you think he is a pain in the ass? i think he is very punishable when you know the matchup. But anyways Kano Cybernetic would not hurt anyone by having an Overhead ender as a conditioning tool.
To me it would just make him all that much more fun to play with and against.

and what again? i was not complaingin about any character, i backed up anothers post asking for Cybernetic to get an Overhead ender that does not start combo as a conditioning tool. and you said no he would be like Alien. and i was like WTF? and i do think its unfair that most the cast is allowed to have tons of BS but you ask for a character to have a standard and you for some reason come out of nowhere and reject his request for some odd reason. Apex has mained Kano from day one, and im sure he understands what kano should have and not. and trust me Cybernetic getting a small piece of what others have just to help his neutral is not an unfair request.

Mileena, Sub, and Cyber Sub don't have safe 50/50s. Alien doesn't have safe launching ones.

This would be Kool! You know what would be kool? To include A-L-L of the characters, and when I mean "ALL" I mean from MK1 till MKXL for MK11. It's to remind us of the MK Trilogy.

u know what i ment? mileena has a safe oh and low, cyber sub has a safe low and safe oh, and the point wasnt safe launchers either. just safe lows or ohs. and Cryomancer has a safe OH and safe LOW.

a guy was asking for a oh for cybernetic since ct is getting nerfed

and he would like it being a kano main since day one.

and someone else came in and said giving cybernetic an oh thats a splat hkd or any version even if it doens lead to combo, WOULD BE LIKE ALIEN, and i was like WTF are you talking about.

if he knew Cybernetic he would now giving a oh wouldn't hurt, its this swarm of Kano CT thats got everyone rattled, you say Kano and they immidiately think Overpowered, when the other two variations are far from.

By experience, I'll tell you this. All of them have 50/50s. Without them having 50/50s they would be a shitty tier and had to depend on zoning and special attacks. The 50/50s are considered as a mind guessing game, in which MKX game is relying on.

Ronin cancels need to cost stamina, that shit is ridiculous. Everything in this game that's more than +5 on block needs to go away. Sonya needs to die and preferably get buried inside Alien's rotting corpse. Oh and here's to hoping Liu Kang DF and Flamefist get butchered ;)!

I know everybody thinks that way, but if NRS did no guests, there would be no replacements. The game would just be that many characters shorter.

Sonya is fine dude. Stamina lost on Ronin or any canceling fighterts is cool.

so any update on these buffs?
well hopfully you get cyber overhead, and i get balanced d4 7-8 frames and Teleflurry hitbox and startup fixed, less recovery on tf/Os. then cyrax gets lauching armor, and Unbreakable/Raiden MOS gets some love.

i hope they don't fuck Mileena up. and give some CSZ buffs, he needs Freeze back just make recovery longer. bring back all starters with normal freeze.
