Imagine Kabal with a broken dash cancel. Just sayin....

Run jabs

Is there a run button or is double tapping in a direction?

If I'm not mistaken MK3 didnt have the run button, it was only added to UMK3 bc fans cried that MK3 vanilla was too slow!

Wrong, It was in MK3. You couldn't link combos from jump punches in MK3

 

[REDRUM]

This will kill the flow of combat imo and really limit mobility.

true. everybody the game sucks.. lets not buy it..

I actually think Run Jabs are going to work (so long as you have Endurance left ).. I think Maximilian said its unk3'ish

haha oh man let's hope that @Shock likes this game for once so he can just dominate everyone with UMK3 skittles

I'm glad they are trying to incorporate run back into the game. Dash-blocking in mk9 was incredibly awkward to watch as a spectator and seeing them try something new is a very refreshing thing to see in the fighting game genre.

 

[VenomX-90]

I had no problem with Dash blocking in MK9 but the run option in MK3 wasnt a problem either. Just got to adjusting to running again in MK. Since in KOF its a lil different.

Zoning is officially dead.

God I fucking hope so... Most annoying "strategy" in any fighting game by far.

Dash then press block to run.

 

[CURBOLICOUS]

Currently:

1. You CANNOT basic dash block or cancel your basic dash with an attack.
2. You can run (uses endurance meter) and cancel the run with attack/block/jump/back dash.
3. You can do a basic dash into a run cancel and cancel the run with attack/block/jump/back dash.

But the endurance meter works like UMK3 correct? It comes back fairly quick.

yeah it comes back pretty quickly from the footage i saw

Push block or back dash it for one bar and whiff punish

I love how all the rush down fools are celebrating these new dash mechanics. They enjoy getting in easily and mashing buttons mindlessly.

 

[CCVengeance]

Eh, I'll just have to wait and see how everything works together before saying I do/don't like these new mechanics.

Burn the Blasphemer!

Would you be willing to learn how do press normals in this game or just quit it

These mechanics can also benefit zoning man

Ok. But wasn't confirmed officially right?

They will only work if the jabs have advantage on block.

 

[CURBOLICOUS]

Also can anyone tell me if the backdashes are invincible like injustice?

 

[STB Sgt Reed]

I'm not sure I understand...

so if I dash in and then hit block... my character will start running?

If that's the case, I'm just gonna walk block. lol

How?

Give me some good reasons that are not a bill.

Are you sure, from the sources that I have it was in there.

 

[Kitana Prime]

I would think they have some sort of invincibilty frames since it currently cost half your endurance bar.

I also think this endurance bar won't regenerate THAT fast, because everything is tuned up for the presentation. Like unlimited meter.

 

[trufenix]

I don't think its been said wether or not run-cancels actually have any recovery or even if you have to hold the button to continue running. I think max (and co) said dashes eat stamina in chunks (maybe just 2 or 3 per full meter) whereas run is a slow drain. Its entirely possible it works the exact same way it ever did, you're just limited in how many you can do by stamina.

dash block:
f,f,bl (let go of forward and the block begins)

therefore run/dash jab:
f,f,bl~n+1 / b,b,bl~n+2

It all depends on wether its the block input that keeps you running or the forward input.
