Kenshi Srubtastic,Cyrax, Special Forces Mains
the letter i sent to WB dev team!
what does TYM think?
btw people who stated MID bombs to all Triborg's opinions are not acknowledged!
Cyrax Adjustments (normalization's)
Cyrax is the greatest Kombatant to hit MKXL!
his bomb combos are swaggy and grow more and more fun each time i land them in matches and locals.
now even though i am a Cyrax Main and he is my favorite character, he does have a tool that should not be in this game.
RESETS
if you combo into a high net and drop a close low bomb and time a back 2 just right, it will reset the combo and allow another net to come out, which allows you to loop this over and over.
but simply making his normal's worse or his bombs recovery or startup of B2 which is already at 35 frames of startup would ruin him in many aspects.
what i suggest would fix all future resets found even after a patch notes.
lets say we change the b2 frames, (we will find another way to do it. Obviously TYM and other various MK communities have proven this over the years)
so changing B@ startup could very well make him a horrible character or any other move for that matter. it is only day 8
but if we make it so that an OH and low being hit at same time cancels the hits into MIDS. that would solve the problem..
make it so that it has to be spaced at least 5 frames apart so it is easily blocked, that way the capability is there to mix up but anyone who labs for 5 min can block the setups and loops. each time they attempt it.. and since he is very negative on block, he would be full combo punished for the attempt when correctly blocked.
seems fair to me.
also if you have a way to do it. remove the capability of looping it.
i know this sounds strange coming from a Cyrax main, but you gotta understand. i don't want to be hated by all of my brethren performing this loop. nor do i want them to not have fun playing me.. i want to feel like i actually won a match fair. out played them, not touched them and drained 50-100% of their life with a looping reset.
It's by no means Quan Summoner 2.0 since his could be made safe on confirm and had more range to start his loop off, but still I'm fine with it being gone.
Now my small Buff requests for Cyrax.
he has a below average neutral game, this is undeniable.
what i suggest at the minimum is to give him a viable armored Special. not just his Wake up Shrapnel Port (DF4EX)
but also give it armor when he is standing.
he needs it!
and if you could possibly give it armor quicker on wake-up that would be nice as well.. I have noticed he gets stuffed quite easily waking up with it, by moves like CSZ 11 or 1112
I'm sure that move is not supposed to be armor breaking but if it is, my bad.
Please take care when adjusting Cyrax!
id love for him to stay around the top for the remainder of the game. but at the same time, i don't want him resetting like a madman
while on the subject, his HTB low bomb +B3D4
is block-able in my eyes by fuzzying it, Hold down 6th beep of bomb let go and press right back on down to fuzzy it within 1 frame.
may be hard for sum, and that block window could be lengthened if that's not to much trouble!
sincerily,
Jagged
