The only way I see him getting better jump in and NJP attacks is to get entirely new animations. Like Raiden hits with lightning during his NJP, give Liu Kang something like that so he could extend hits of his hands with something made of flame, like imagine a dragon's head coming from his hand(s) so he could have longer jump in punches and wider NJPs.
His pokes are very "fine", of course. Especially when you try to outpoke Cassie and Ermac. His NJP lacks distance. While lots of other characters use any kind of tools (Quan Chi his magic, Raiden his lightining, Cassie her stick, Kung Lao his hat), Liu Kang has a simple punch with t-rex's range, while turning into a freaking dragon in his victory animation. I think he can do much better NJPs in theory, animation and hitbox wise. But his current NJP is fast at the very least, so I can't complain much about, but I surely can wish for more, lol.
People are still doing mb flying kick instead of fbrc man....
The worst part is when they let their opponents get of the ground instead of doing B12(or even F44 against some characters) FBRC everytime for maximum brokenness.
When you run out of stamina, you better finish it with mb fk, it will also build your meter back and you will have some safe options after (backbash, bait reversal on block, grab, NJP). I don't understand why you speaking about mb fk as if like this is something wrong to do.
Good luck doing B12 on Cassie's EX flip or Sub-Zero's EX slide.
My bad.
Everything you've said in this thread is exactly how I feel. Also gotta note the part where Brady calls the normal run cancels a block infinite. Beware of the nonsense especially when it comes to known players.
Who were the players? I missed half of the pools.
You most certainly can stuff out Cassie's flip with B12. If you're not learning the best ways to stuff each character's wakeups attacks with Liu Kang then you're doing it wrong.
Jailing is a strategy I use on criminals only.Do you suck that much that you can't win without jailing?
If dualist got these changes right here, it would help out in matchups.
Change light fireball recovery to 70 frames
low fireball recovery to 69 frames. Flame fist and dragons fire has about a third of recovery of what dualist has on recovery (69/163)
Fix his light yin so we get more health and recover way faster.
Better recovery on his yang (yall say it's 1 frame of recovery.. It's obviously not so...)
And add his MB bicycle kick from dragons fire so he can get more damage midscreen and corner
