Can't tell you how annoyed I am I dropped the combo at the end of the match. Lol
Basically. Just spam B4, F4, and throw. As that's literally all he can do for pressure. If they keep blocking low then do a couple hop overheads."And that concludes the SK tutorial. You are now ready to go to EVO and body everyone."
Yeah i know thats pretty much the way i play as well. That and d2. Like i said when the game was released, character is garbage compared to the rest of the cast.Basically.

B4 sweep having huge range, -2 on block and gives you 28 frame advantage which you need for the F4 to come out. Which is +6 on block. So you can do anything to them.
His normals are bad. Because a huge majority of them hit high and whiff on crouch blocking opponents which make those strings unusable. His specials being bad is just another issue altogether.I think his norms are fine tbh I would rather have specials not suck. taunts take too long, priest feels kind of redundant when he already has taunts + priest takes too long, and a lot of his other moves feel like fluff that don't really add to his viability, like the ground pound or the overhead jump. Only specials I use ATM are the seeking wrath hammer and annihilation for the combo ender
like in terms of pure fundamentals I think shao has a really good setup, it just doesn't lead anywhere because of mediocre and obnoxiously slow special moves so you don't really get to have a sick pop-off when you get one up on your opponent, you use good footsies to get a lead and then you just keep doing good footsies until you win
Ehhm no. Simply no.
You guys are a bunch of whiners.
I mean all I'm saying is there is someone bodying decent players with the 'worst character in the game' while people here who couldn't even hold a candle to this sub player even if they were maining Erron Black are crying for Shao Khan buffs a week in. It's pretty silly.Ehhm no. Simply no.
People were doing that with Darkseid and Goro in the previous games. Does that mean the characters were good? If you check the SK forum you ll see why say the things we say.I mean all I'm saying is there is someone bodying decent players with the 'worst character in the game' while people here who couldn't even hold a candle to this sub player are crying for Shao Khan buffs a week in.

That Sub-Zero was absolutely terrible. He is literally getting hit from everything because he keeps pressing buttons. Why the fuck was he going for a down jab after landing his F4 Which puts him at +4 on block? He completely wasted his plus frames for a jab.

Alot of characters in this game lack reliable safe mid strings and overheads etc. People just don't know how to make a character work for them, all they want is free pressure constantly or stupid 50/50s.People were doing that with Darkseid and Goro in the previous games. Does that mean the characters were good? If you check the SK forum you ll see why say the things we say.
So Shao Kahn has to be the only character in the game that has to hit confirm off a single hit? Do you understand how risky that is? Your reactions have to be so on point with that shit even when hit confirming off of a standard string.F3 is a 10 frame confirmable mid on its own. Stop crying and practice your confirms
sub isnt playing this matchup well at all lol, going by your own reasoning we shouldn't take week1 tourney fights too seriously either because there's no way people have learned the game to an important level

I hit confirm off of single hits all the time, it's called playing a fighting game. I have to hit off of orbital hat quite alot with Kung Lao and I'm not sitting here bitching about it.So Shao Kahn has to be the only character in the game that has to hit confirm off a single hit?

You should bitch about it because it's risky as hell and all of the top tiers in this game doesn't have to worry about it.I hit confirm off of single hits all the time, it's called playing a fighting game.
