hmm, tbh i did take a few risks in my match vs detroit at evo, but that's scorpion for ya. Also i think it is correct that most wins come from safe stuff, look at street fighter, ppl aren't just throwing around unsafe stuff when they could be doing the safe move that'll guarentee them success.You say a ton of smart things
this isn't one of them.
We've clearly gotten to the point where... if you don't have to take huge risks... you can usually win by simply doing the safe thing. The only reason some matches are hype... is because our top players have the stones to take a risk.
If every character had more than one hole (compared to others, some have zero)... then risks would have to be taken and create a more "hype" atmosphere. Just watch Big D vs Jr. ... or any low tier vs a high tier. There is always that "he could make one huge risk and win" moment.
Why is Scorpion so fun to watch? Exactly.
