"I'm In A Nightmare" -- Batman General Discussion Thread

[Pakman]

Batman vs Bane game play analysis (Shout outs to Karried for original footage link)

Video:

Analysis:
00:36 Batman's jump in causes knock down (probably heavy attack)
00:37 Kick, kick, backhand/cape smash unsafe on block
0:48 CORRECTION: EX battarangs whic caused ground bounce (juggle state) (Thanks K.o.e_18!)
00:51: AA Grapple throws opponent back to ground (no follow up, used as combo ender)
00:52-53: Either meter dash cancel or Bat's can follow his battarangs. They give him enough hit stun to combo off after. Add in his X-up, and Bat has a real nasty mix up game.

1:00 Bat's can jump off wall to get out of corners. Second thoughts, I think that is a stage interaction as Bane starts burning...
1:04 Punch, punch, kick combo (probably light, light, mid) causes launch (in the video, he then power attacks Bane into another area)
1:37 Battarangs are unsafe at approx 3 character spaces away - it has a lot of recovery (Bane jumps over, lands and gets a full combo)
1:41 Confirmed, Batman has a dive kick from Air Glide. He can combo off it into launcher (in the vid, he used AA grapple which caused Ground bounce. He then power attacks which then causes a wall bounce)

All in all, I'd say Bat's gets damage pretty easily and looks relatively solid. Obviously, this is just one match but it's of reasonably good play and a lot of information is given.

Next stop. BANE!

0:48 is stage interaction. Bat's throws a 'rang at the orb, causing it to explode which causes ground bounce (juggle state)

That was actually the EX version of the Batarang.

So is his original parry super no longer in the game? I actually like it more than his batmobile one.

Yeah it got scrapped a few months ago. Ed confirmed it on twitter too

Eh, guess I can live with that. So glad the game is so fast paced you can barely notice his shitty stance lol.

I'm really like the stage interactions at this point lol

 

[OutworldKeith]

Pakman remember Batman still has his 3 robo-bats that can make unsafe things safe

Serious question here. Is it me or does batmans lower face look strange? His teeth are severely deformed and there is something wrong with his face, I just can't pinpoint it. The lower half of his face kinda resembles a chimpanzee , and the mask doesn't help, it gives it a rounder contour and chimp like face.....
Check it out:

Does he have lips?

 

[GodsLonelyman]

It's hard to determine but it appears that he may not have lips. I think thats part of the problem lol

Looks like Batman is going to be pretty damn good so I'm just going to put it out there that I've been a huge batman fan forever and theres no chance regardless of his tier I'd main anyone else.

To show my dedication I present myself on the roof of the building I used to work at.

do you stalk the workers at night?

 

[KiD INsAnitY]

Lmao

 

[GodsLonelyman]

that picture is disturbing to say the least. It has a creepy pedophile vibe

 

[Rathalos]

Batman's wallbounce heavy attack is pretty neat.
Normally not a huge fan of The Batman, but so far he does look really fun to play as.

And his combos just look cool.

 

[SLy]

Batman looks hella mobile.. Hes going to be a problem

 

[RapZiLLa54]

LOL nah. It was Halloween and I changed on lunch and proceeded to hand out candy saying "Happy Halloween Citizens". I'm still known as Batman throughout the electrical industry lol

Best part about it was I was pretty low on the totem pole back then and just starting. I usually rock a goatee as well so I obviously shaved and most of the building had NO idea who "Batman" was. For weeks, I'd be in the lunch room and just have people staring at me and then say "were you batman?" And I'd reply, "what?" Good times, can't believe that was 7 years ago, wow.

lol that sounds fun

I noticed Bane blew Batman up at about 00:27 in while he was summoning bats. Maybe this move has a moderate window for punishment? I'm also not sure but based on his rangs he could have a slower whiff recovery for most of his moves, but likely made irrelevant with bats anyway. I'm probably wrong though.

0:27 Bane used a stage weapon. Nothing to do with Batman.

Hector already confired that you should attack him when he's activating the bats, and pressure when he doesn't have them summoned.

Sorry, I was watching a video without the commentator in the beginning. It's at about 40 seconds in, he's hit right as they get summoned, so I guess they can't be stopped from coming in.

 

[Rathalos]

Batman has harnessed the awesome power of YO-YO's.

Looks like a legit punish, but the bats still where activated.

Still gotta remember that the fight is scripted as well.

 

[Pterodactyl]

Batman will be the only case where i'm perfectly fine with a character being OP.

 

[KH_Seraph]

So can you chain the slide kick into robotic bats and then into grappling hook? Or maybe that Liu Kang looking flying kick he has that wall-bounces the opponent?

Would be so dirty if you could.


Also, super swag Batman bread and butter at 1:40.

Has a dive-kick like Sonya into a 123 looking-string, grappling hook slam into flying kick, dash under, flash strike, headbutt-knee. (I wonder if that string can cancel into anything)
