How often do you get hit by X-rays?
I have been playing USF4 since 7 years and I almost never get hit by any random ultras except it is either
- a hit confirmed combo that leads to an ultra
- a punish when I whiff a SRK for instance
- a well done ultra on reaction vs a fireball for instance
- a tricky setup which is hard to see / to block on time
but other than that I usually never got hit by any random ultras over the last 7 years. Maybe in less than 1% of the cases I got hit by
any of those random ultras because I was playing too reckless.
But in MKX from out of 1500+ games played I got hit 96%+ of the time by random x-rays and I only block / avoid them 4% of the time.
I am just asking this out of curiosity, does anyone else getting hit by random x-rays so often?
Or is it just me being a rly bad player getting hit by any of those?
Thanks for reading.
I am exactly the same.
I feel that since SF4 is a relative old game, the players who still play are those who take it seriously, want to be good at it and know what's smart and what isn't (generally speaking). MKX is all new, so there's a lot of players out there who are just getting their feet wet and honesty don't know how the game is supposed to be played. They just want to land that flashy X-ray.
I played somebody today who obviously didn't know what to do or how to respond to what I was doing. I even tried to open myself up a little 'cause I felt like a bully
He just did X-ray when he could and armored through my string - he didn't land anything else.
