Anyone having any tricky matchups? I had a hard time against black Adam, dead shot, darkseid, and cheetah. Other than those four I've been having a fairly reasonable good time against the rest of the cast
The only character I really struggle with is batman. The rest of the cast I haven't had too many problems, although I do feel like I haven't played too many good players so I don't feel comfortable talking about match ups.Anyone having any tricky matchups?

I've been trying for about 20 minutes and can't replicate it. I've tried having the opponent wager different amounts of meter and everything. Is there anything else that could be a factor?? Maybe the character you were against?Last night I was playing and think I noticed a bug. I equipped a boxing arrow and had 3 bars after. I managed to build another bar while having the boxing arrow stocked. The other player initiated a clash and I lost a full bar of meter and the boxing glove arrow. I know the arrow stock goes away during clash and transition but the bar of meter that just went away isn't normal. I'm at work right now, can anyone try to replicate this?
I was arrow vs super girl and I believe I was player 2. I had 4 bars of meter when I loaded a boxing glove, I put it away and built up another bar while fighting. As soon as he activated the clash my 4th bar disappeared.I've been trying for about 20 minutes and can't replicate it. I've tried having the opponent wager different amounts of meter and everything.

Batman seems like a better matchup now. I've been catching the cross ups with sky alert. And when they try zoning, fire and electric arrows beat his batterangs at full screen. When they go for a MB roll from midscreen do a forward dash (with your arrow out) to punish or d1 themThe only character I really struggle with is batman.

Darkseid is actually a pretty decent one in GA's favor in my opinion. You can duck omega beams and shoot arrows at full screen all day. After that it just becomes a matter of baiting teleports which you KNOW they're gonna do and from then you have a couple of AA options. I haven't met a Darkseid that's given me any trouble I couldn't get out of.Anyone having any tricky matchups? I had a hard time against black Adam, dead shot, darkseid, and cheetah.

I can't replicate it. I've tried different stages, different strings, and different amounts of meter wagered.I was arrow vs super girl and I believe I was player 2.

It's possible that my mind was just fucking with me but I'm pretty sure it happened.
I shoot A LOT of fire arrows. Up close I push block him away so I don't have to deal with his mix ups. I open people up by grabbing a lot, I go for grabs and plus frames more than overhead/low stuff personally.What do you guys do against Deadshot? I tried trading projectiles last night which should theoretically give GA the advantage since I can duck air shots while shooting arrows but up close I actually think DS has better buttons than GA. Anyone who knows GA's strings knows that he doesn't have an overhead. I can't seem to open people up other than with grabs.
I feel like until we find some crazy tech for him he's still low-mid tier unfortunately. It seems bullying him out with good rushdown and good zoning is very much possible as he lacks a good wake-up and his projectiles can't be spammed.
I just MB b3 his charge instead of blocking itCan anyone offfer advice on the bane matchup? I feel like nothing reached bane after his charge or his elbow
This is a great idea because most bane players don't go level 3 venom any wayI just MB b3 his charge instead of blocking it
And if you do get kornered, you have D1 into MB Stinger for that push back. Or D1 into Savage Blast for those plus frames.I wouldn't be quick to say where he is on the tier list but it's safe to say he's technically improved version of what he used to be.
Also to avoid the corner MB roll can be your best friend. I think if you stay out of the corner Arrow can hold his own against anyone really. I don't have a ton of match experience but I haven't played any matches where it felt hopeless.

You kan also jump over it even after you shot an arrow, unless you shot the arrow pretty late. I time my neutral jump if he charged from far away, time my jump back if he charged from mid range, or mb b3 if he was fairly klose when I shot the arrow. You kan also just block it, he doesn't get much out of it.This is a great idea because most bane players don't go level 3 venom any way
D1 stinger is such a pain in the ass on alternate controls.And if you do get kornered, you have D1 into MB Stinger for that push back. Or D1 into Savage Blast for those plus frames.
Yeah. I never played on alternate kontrols in Injustice 1 for that reason. I wanted to though because I used to hate getting Up Haven Blast when I was trying to F2 punish after duck blocking... I play on hitbox now though so it's less of an issue. We kan also punish with Hurricane Bow for those ranged punishes even though it's a little slower.D1 stinger is such a pain in the ass on alternate controls.
Just wanted to note that d1xx savage blast in the corner can be poked but it results in a trade usually.And if you do get kornered, you have D1 into MB Stinger for that push back. Or D1 into Savage Blast for those plus frames.
