SALTY Ever got bodied by an underused variation?

[God Confirm]

I bet everyone in here would get merked by @Nausea s Spectral

 

[honeybooboo]

REO was merking people with Bo yesterday.

I saw that. I was pretty hyped

 

[smokey]

I beat much better players than me with venomous dvorah just mashing random strings and pokes into (unsafe) spray on block... something about mashing d4, backdashing and using armour while im -17 seems to get me wins.

Matchup knowledge is king in a game with like 100 different playstyles, getting caught off guard will get you scrubbed out.

I can confirm i did when we first met lol. I know the MU now and probably would do better

 

[Eldriken]

I've probably gotten my ass handed to me by every underused variation in the game. It's a pleasant surprise at times 'cause it's not something you would expect.

 

[EdenianWarrior]

Are you on xbox? I'd like to actually learn how to fight her lol.

Damn, no. I'm on PS4.

 

[WiseM0nkey]

I'm free to Special Forces Sonya

 

[Tweedy]

Lol the Naginata talk made me remember this. Literally my first encounter vs the character.

Skip to 1:23:13

Baffled.

My former roommate uses bone shaper shinnok, dragon fangs goro, hunter predator, bojutsu kung jin, pumped up jax, slasher jason, venomous d'vorah, vicious ferra torr, pretty lady leatherface and war god kotal. Lol so pretty much anytime I lose other than to his Kotal I'm getting mopped by some underused variation or other. XP

 

[Dankster Morgan]

Damn, no. I'm on PS4.

Damn haha

Iv lost to Forever Elite's Dualist, I really dont know the frame date on hes stuff.

Im not certain but when they switch to light stance, they arent plus and you can move right after, usuall I d2

 

[the.hamburglar]

He's near enough the same, everyone else is better.

Just a question but you say everone else is better but youve placed in alot of tournaments and at the time Kung Lao was considered best character in the game and now you use mileena which is considered best character in the game. Do you mean hes near enough the same as in to everyone else or from vanilla MK because if hes as mid tier to garbage as you say, Im not sure you would have won so ESL weeks. Also what makes his bad compared to before besides the plus 7 instead of 12

 

[Pan1cMode]

The question should be who didnt? I got mopped by HT Jacqui. Cried after I checked the frame data on her cancels.

All her cancels are very +

Did you cry because it was too good, or because you thought you could poke out?

 

[Green Lantern Rz]

Got spanked by fisticuffs johnny...

 

[BlackJackSnack]

Yeah any sonya :

Me :

 

[TyCarter35]

Pre XL, no one would know the ninjutsu MU and people never respect his armor breaking or the range he has and I always love shutting down njp spammers. Now a days, I'll find myself struggling against shotgun jacqui of all characters

 

[SM StarGazer]

Step 1: Walk into Random KOTH
Step 2: Run Through a Ronin Takeda, Piercing Mileeena, Grandmaster Sub Zero, Master of Souls Ermac, all they way up to a 12 win streak. *Someone new joins*
Step 3: Smile as they hover over Tanya for you no longer fear the Rekka.
Step 4: They pick stripper pole variation
Step 5: Get mesmerized as you get slapped by the tip, the shaft, the stick, and get out spaced with no concept of her movements or frame data.
Step 6: Cry

You literally just discribed rape.


Damn Daniel...

 

[ismael4790]

when i lose to good Kenshi's im like wtf just happened
i keep going by what people on here say about him and apparently he isnt as shitty as i thought

He is probably shittier than you think, actually xD But not knowing a matchup can make a character look very good.

Balanced Kenshi is OP against BRC.

 

[the.hamburglar]

Balanced Kenshi is OP against BRC.

So is everyone

 

[ismael4790]

Balanced Kenshi is OP against BRC.

Absolutely agree, yes. Bo needs better mobility.

 

[BigMacMcLovin]

You're using bo you're even worse than me

But I don't win with him

 

[WATCHD0G]

I got DEMOLISHED by one fisticuffs Cage, he wasn't even that good, i just really wanted to hit when he did the speed bag and I kept falling right into it

 

[WakeUp DP]

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Kutisari?

No, XBL gt M3xsmurft.

 

[Nausea]
