Which characters look to have good normals in terms of footsies?

I'm thinking maybe Aquaman and Robin at the moment. Brainiac aswell perhaps?

Chipotle and Olive Garden are NOT authentic
Swamp thing makes you scared to approach him with his huge stick he swings at people...

Footsies seem to play a huge part in this game, especially compared to mkx.
No run button in this one.

You gotta feint left, then come in right, then go left again and whiff punish.

Bob n' weave. Bob n' weave...

Float like a butterfly, Sting like Chompy and Bitey.

  • Black Adam near the top due to his new string
  • Superman is still f23-licious
  • Can't have a discussion about Footsies without mentioning Aquaman, as he invented them in IGAU and controls a ridiculous amout of space
  • Scarecrow and Swamp Thing have fullscreen strings
  • Green Lantern and Supergirl have equivalent strings that are excellent for footsies and whiff punishing
  • Robin has a giant sword
  • Atrocious is able to mix you up while playing 'footsies' from 60% screen (shades of MKX?)
  • Wonder Woman fares very well in this regard due to her lasso normals

That's my most favourite thing so far. The time to think and the chance to play patiently and/or defensively is a breath of fresh air.

I love MKX but it could've been so much more with this kind of thinking
