I actually disagree with Special Forces, there's a very simple formula to be successful with it, you just need to figure it out.
I agree, I've been trying to learn Markman and Outlaw on and off since release and I just can't seem to get a good feel of the character.
Could you describe the formular you have in mind?
There aren't many true grapplers in this game to be honest.
I find Spec Ops quite hard to play well, not because of the reads or guess work (which are definitely part of it) but because of trying to couple cassie's pressure with missile confirms. Making sure that if the missile misses you're not a sitting duck, but at the same time, don't commit to anything that will make you whiff if the missile hits. I find that pretty hard to do and why I'd say she's pretty difficult.
It's depend of variations, for low tier chars you always need to give more efforts to be at the same lvl as top tiers, etc, etc,. You said Kano is one of easiest so maybe cybernetic isn't hard but believe me to be a good cutthroat or commando you need a lot of practice, maybe to do combos is easy it isn't same life to beat top tiers at all, if you're not braindead, you will be able to do all chars combos easy enougth in 1hour but most important thing it's to feel your char in a real match and move well, punish, react, especially mind games
How is Kung Lao among the easiest? Imo he's EASILY the most difficult non cancel character.
I have to disagree with your Kano difficulty assessment. Cyber is much easier to learn than Cutthroat IMO. I think most Kano mains or even casual players of him would agree.
I used to be a Kano main and to ME Cutthroat was much easier to learn. finding the neutral. finding combos, finding ways to open people up. I learned everything in a matter of hours.
Fair. But I was of the impression that the thread was speaking to raw execution barriers. Which Cutthroat is arguably harder on the run cancels alone and not having b1. You mentioned things that are talking about how difficult they are to win with due to the differences in variation (and likely play style). Also with Cyber that big damage is highly situational, that's not what it's about. I'm also not hating. Just wanted to reply.
Well everything falls into place when learning a character. Execution is only one part of learning a character. You need to Understand what you're doing and how you're going to do it. I can watch a Jax player not do a single Run Cancel and still win. Why? because he understands his character inside and out. That's when you truly learn a character
He's one of the most common and not just amongst pros which tells you that like Tanya he has a low barrier of entry. He has no losing matchups, great antiair, his bnb jails into a free fifty fifty and that's his whole strategy as a character. He has a teleport to evade projectile pressure and his damage is above average. He has solid armor as well as almost free pressure with his or bitting hat. Easy armor breaks that happen naturally with his bnb and he isnt as negative as other characters.
