I'll agree, the Kabal hysteria thats been going on lately has gotten pretty ridiculous. Is he a bit overpowered? Yes. Is he the best character in the game? Absolutely. Is he beatable? Completely.

I have pretty big issues getting in on kabal. Even when he's gas blasting I feel like teleport is too punishable to just throw out there. He can fake a gas blast and just jump backwards on read and full combo punish with a jip.

Up close I know the dash cancel pressure decently and can either teleport, poke, or jump out. But the dash cancel pressure is still pretty fast and it's easy to mess up and get rocked.

But you're right... oh well. All it takes is practice and it's not like there aren't kabals out there everywhere to get that practice in. Kabals spend a long time building up the execution to perform his pressure... so we have to put just as much time in fighting it. I think it's fine.
