Well that's super viable isn't it
Let's not pretend Grundy isn't a good character. When played properly he is a force to be reckoned with. He simply requires good reads. Like Joker, he is a balanced character in a game of broken bullshit lol.
Definitely, Grundys a great character. All I was saying was that tech was very situational
Considering it works in just about every corner for a guaranteed reset combo (But less effectively since there won't be a laser) and with multiple interactibles, yeah, it could end up useful.
I'm not quite so sure actually... I don't think he's a BAD character per se, but grab immunity really hurts him and the fact that he relies on chip trait in certain matchups is a hinderance. I could definitely see him being somewhere in the bottom 5. That said there's really only 1-2 characters I would consider actually "unviable".
Like I said before, I like to think of the game in 3-4 tier (high, mid, low, and maybe top pending we don't find ways to deal with a couple characters a bit better).
Have you fought any that are good at knowing when you cancel walking corpse and when not to? It's always a guessing game, and a very dangerous one at that. For our matchup specifically, his air grab severely hurts a big part of our game. I haven't fought Tyrant, but I fight a certain someone that lose 4-5 to him in a FT5, so I think I'm starting to understand it, and there is no guaranteed option when you see him WCC at you. Just a scary guess, though the risk-reward is a pretty even spread for us.
I sadly have not. I've played a couple of decent ones, but no one near Tyrant's level.
Both crowbar and standing 3 are throw immune, but it's still a guess as to when you use them. If he cancels into 11 or d2 or whatever else before that or while you are winding either one up, you're gonna eat some hefty damage. Best way I've found to eliminate the guess is to throw teeth while he is WCC at you, because whether he finishes it or cancels it, he has to respect the teeth. However, we don't get anything out of that in a trade. We get more damage in most scenarios, but it's slight. And this is just one aspect of the fight lol. "Injustice has no depth..." Get the fuck outta here people
Just went into training mode again to double check this since you made me doubt myself, but yeah, if you time it right he has to block. The term doesn't quite fit since it's not a knockdown, but time it so it hits him meaty as he's canceling the walk.Both crowbar and standing 3 are throw immune, but it's still a guess as to when you use them.

I didn't think to try that, but is there no gap in the armor when you do that? I ask because if there is a gap then this shouldn't work since he cancels into an active hitbox.
I don't think so.
False
Yeah i totally agree with scorpion and cyborg. I almost wrote that in my post actually lol
Done.
