Grundy's 1.06 Patch Changes

[BurdManJR270]

The link goes to Harley's patch list. Grundy's notes claim that his pain chain cannot be parried. It doesn't say about being unclashable.

EDIT: Nvm, I don't even think you meant to make that a working link.

You can do 112 ex swamp hands, grave rot. and still have enough time for a b1.

Don't you sacrifice damage though because of no J2? Anyway the point is moot because we don't know how much more damage grave rot will give.

You would want to use at as a part two to the nasty corner reset game.

J2 112 ex swamp hands, ex grave rot, b1, f1 3/ f3 11 ex swamp hands, grave rot, b1 ~ grab

This set up is titled "lol"

Instead of F3 11 do another B1 then MB Swamphands which makes for a overhead low mixup that works on block. Don't do it too often or your opponent will know what you are doing.

CAN'T STOP POST-PATCH GRUNDY!

I'm uk dude.

I don't get this parry thing. You can't parry this throw with like batman party anyway

Actually, you could. For some reason at least Batman could parry Pain Chain. Probably has something to do with being able to combo into it via juggles and specific hitstates but it also being a command grab. Glad they fixed it though, my friend would sometimes wakeup parry in the corner and I'd get my stick all salty cause you're not supposed to be able to parry grabs.

Not quite as good as I thought then. But frankly I'm glad they nerfed some bad mu's and left us alone. Grundy foreverz.

Be interested to see how we can all incorporate swamp hands into our game and increase damage further.

Gonna start trying it out in practice.

Now then, do we think BA dive kick is going to be unsafe enough to tick throw? And do we think superman laser changes mean we can scoot under him without needing to catch him in a mb SH? Or am I being too optimistic?

GRUNDY SMASH SLIGHTLY BETTER NOW.

But yeah, not looking forward to that Nightwing match up now. I already found it difficult when playing someone who knows what they're doing with their Dick.

Dick just keeps getting harder and harder to deal with

 

[Klesk_1]

I have trouble with him as well. What's his buffs which affect Grundy then? Sorry i'm on the move. Just interested!

laming people out is gonna be sooo fun now , chip trait on grave rots on block everything
is gonna be about 5% per tick
new reset combo ill be using
112 MB swamp hands , ji2 b1 MB rot d1 , damage trait
the trait does 43% pre patch when set up like this the first part does 30% or so
with the buffs this reset will be over 80%

 

[Klesk_1]

really? i thought it dissapears as soon as they attack you... might try it now, let alone after the patch

only if u get hit u can block and they will take damage , every time i have them low on health i lame it out with this MB grave rot , grave rot , walk back , anti air throw to build meter , u will be surprised at how damaging it can be ,, also with damage trait on and this new buff the damage per tick should be around 6 or 7 % :tonyt
edit / this also teaches me some patience which as grundy i do not have

 

[Klesk_1]

thats awesome.

 

[Grave__Intent]

So now we can't have our pain chain wagered. - This is just excellent and it's not like they made them all like that. Seems fair does..

Damage buff to grave rot is fine. I don't use it much but it can only be a good thing. I'm thinking change the tredt slightly so. MB SH instead of j2 just do grave rot and then b1?

Eek I'm well chuffed. Particularly with the BA and superman nerfs.

Who's with me

LEARN TO READ!
The patch notes said "Parried"...NOT wagered. Ergo...Batman, Killer Frost, Zod and Joker can not parry it.
As far as more damage from the Swamp Gas goes, it's cool. Just means more than 52% with 1 meter now

I think Tyrant is going to have a ball with this.

EDIT: Ok can a mod change my title to
Grundy's 1.06 Patch Changes

Okay. Got it.

Enjoy the buffs.

Solomon Grundy,
Dropped on a Monday,
Buffed on a Tuesday,
Tried again on Wednesday.
Trained him on a Thursday,
Won a tourney Friday,
Bitched about on a Saturday,
Nerfed on a Sunday!
This is the end of Solomon Grundy! (Which is only a nursery rhyme for those who dream of nerfs)

 

[Klesk_1]

pfff never dropped Grundy mained him from day 1. Purist >

It's only a made-up nursery rhyme. Didn't mean to say that you dropped him.

112 MB swamp hands , ji2 b1 MB rot d1 , damage trait

d1? Why d1?

 

[RadicalFuzz]

d1? Why d1?

IIRC d1->Trait is one of those setups you can't jump out of but it still resets the combo. Same basic concept as b1->MB Rot->Pause->Trait in that you're trying to land an unscaled Trait after Grave Rot for the damage.

 

[EMPEROR_THEO]

this matchup shoudl be truly unimaginable now. after you finally get in and body cyborg, he'll grapple away and regain all that life lololol

Your statement becomes a billion times funnier when associated with your avatar.

that shit is so escape-able lol

 

[RadicalFuzz]

that shit is so escape-able lol

Just tested it, d1 on hit can go into trait and they can't jump out. You can escape it, but the easy option of jumping out (Personally neutral jump is my go-to method for avoiding command grabs) doesn't work in this case. Thinking more about it, b1->MB Grave Rot might let you still get the inescapable Trait.

Not every player jumps out. I spent an entire weekend getting mb b3'd out of every set up.

And B1 mb grave rot does not get the inescapable trait. I tried that shit week one.

 

[ForeverKing]

Grundy could have gotten better buffs. But these will do I guess.

I still don't understand:

Throw Immunity – Completely removed throw immunity from all projectile attacks. You can now throw opponents while they are throwing projectiles, regardless of character.

How does this help Grundy alot?
