would like to see him prove that he can actually get dark priest buff out before he starts talking about how good it is lol
Lol yea Ik how hard it is to get it out against certain characters it does need to be buffed. But its not impossible. I got the 20% in a match a good amount if times. But moral of the story is we cant be to quick to call a character shit, we gotta work with what we got n keep improving
Noob cannot safely confirm at all off his 9 frame mid FYI. He has to commit to the B1 1+3 which is -17 on block. Shao Kahn can full combo punish that even if spaced with reversal shoulder
I dont think I ever called him shit but tbh there's really nothing wrong with making a bold claim about it early on because if nothing else it gets people thinking on how to improve, and then later on we can go "oh yeah I guess we were wrong he's not so bad now"
don't care what sonicfux says, lol
Dude he's got a ten frame mid in F3
F34 is one of his best staggers leads to another for 3 B3 Dash grab or sweep mix up
There arent many characters who can full combo punish Noob's b1, 1+3. Its not even the same scenario i was talking about regarding SK's f3 cancel into shoulder charge. Charge is -20F on block and you are left POINT BLANK to your opponent. Noob's b1, 1+3 leaves him almost outside of sweep range. Even Geras, probably the best punisher in the game can only punish it with sand trap. SK's shoulder can be punished hard with a full combo punish, not slide, sand trap etc. Its not the same.
You can get Dark Priest buff after a fullscreen spear on hit. I think the only one who might be able to punish it is probably Scorpion with tp, but i ll have to lab it.
yeah but how practical is that when you consider how most other characters either have fireballs themselves and/or can teleport or gap close really quickly? I'm pretty sure someone like say Jacqui could still take the hit and get right up in your face with her mobility
There is no mix up after a f3 on block man. Why? Because the second hit of f3 leads to a low, so using sweep after f3 is out of the question. He has a gimmick after a blocked f3, which is either using throw or down poke. Do you know how -f on block f3 is? -8f. There is no stagger there. If it was -2 or 3f on block, then yes it would be really good.
No F3 stagger is a thing because if you take the risk to poke and take your turn back your eating 20% free if i decide to just do the whole F3 string. You have to read when i might stagger and commit to pressing a button or FB . With conditioning you can even F3 stagger shorthop lol Its a 10 frame mid go test it
You dont understand what i m saying. After a blocked f3 you are at -8f. SK is standing still like a statue, cause he is still recovering.
Yes Scorpions is obviously less - on block but SK works the same way.
fox well known for having incredibly wrong opinions about characters
Lol i dont want to hear it. You guys believe pro players when they fit your point of view. Sonicfox is the best and gave valid reasons for everyone. In sub zeros case for us mortals who cant react to a 19 frame overhead hes Stier. But he said and proved he can react to his mixes, making him B tier.
It seems to me you are very biased. What valid reasons did he give that put SK in A tier? Since you support the fact that SK is A tier, plz tell us what are the pros of SK that the rest of the cast does not have?
