I'm confused about the kitana gif and buff. After the rising fans she does the float then punches, I thought I have seen that before? What am I missing?

It's too soon to get cocky.

From my understanding, ex armored launchers are likely going away across the board.

What Kitana is doing is her rising fans, which are then cancelled into an ex IAF, into JI2 b14 b2. It all jails and makes her safe.

Looks similar to how Sektor can do ex air charge from a blocked teleport.

Also I hope they don't get rid of ALL armoured launchers, some characters really need them like Lao with his spin.

If they are taking armored launchers awey except for wakeup,they should buff starting frames on teleport to deal with gaps
Edit
It is a launching armor...maybe he has been given non- launching armor?

I wasn't speaking to you as a child I was speaking to you as someone who'd seen a 2 second gif which HINTED at something but did not really show ANYTHING and just decided that "so much for balance patch gg nrs".

Wait to see how it all shakes out before passing judgement based on almost zero information that's all, this community has a bad habit of doing that and it's time to stop.
Maybe i jumped the gun a bit, but I'm not usually like that. But like a lot of other people, its just hard to trust nrs and seeing stuff like this is slightly concerning.

However, if they're removing armour on launchers then that is pretty big, so i certainly applaud them, and maybe this really is the fabled patch people have been searching for, but like said, I'll reserve judgement.

with a cmd grab Cyo would still just be Wrestler Jax with less mix-ups, worse poke game for tick throws, worse pressure, and less damage

but at least he'd have that super OP slide rite
Never did i imply slide was op or anything like that, but you do make a fair point about cryo. Again we'll see where this goes.
