Shield bash does not close the gaps of 33 and b13. What you mentioned are all situational in terms of landing a hit. His meter build is great i agree and his damage is not something i have an issue with. Mind you i do very well with beatle but when playing against the character, he has some issues in normals. His zoning and meter build is great due to his terrible normals.

Catwoman is FULL of gaps, she only has one useful gapless string and that is 2D21. Literally all her main strings have gaps, some even have gaps between each hit and clearly it never stopped her from being amazing.

It's all so very confusing.
Supergirl came out STRONG, super happy to see that, even if I don't play her. I tried. Not for me.

My girl Dinah though. Shooooooo.

So, I see some people saying BB needed more damage. I'm not a bb player by any means, but I wasn't under the impression he was that low damage ? Just something I thought was off. I could be totally wrong, again, not a BB player.

Glad to see the top tiers make it through relatively in tact. I feel like maybe Batman needed a thing or two more than he got.. hit CWs stuff seems like it will penalize gimicky play and still reward good footsies and spacing and such.. Supes seems to still do Superman things. Bladam just doesn't kill you in two touches any more and has to play the game a little. Aquaman I don't know yet.

Joker needed to not go totally ignored.. I hated to see that. Super happy to see Crow and Harley not get fucked with. We'll see more WoWo now..

I think the health of the game as a whole is going to be significantly improved by this patch. I can see a much more diverse snd interesting landscape ahead.

The Green Lantern Corp is gonna add some new members, I can feel it. Those nerfs to the brain dead brigade are going to help him rise from mediocrity. I still don't think he'll ever be top 5, but we shall see.

I may be joining you guys. I'll still play Aquaman but maybe I'll want a second character.

Really hoping for some phantom frame data changes to Swamp's normals (B3/F3, st2, etc) but having a nice trait is starting to sound pretty good. If you can mb roll with trait through the opponent I can already seem some awesome pressure setups. His corner game is already pretty solid and now it's even better.

Probably still low tier, but the middle ranks are getting pretty numerous, so that's a plus.

I don't get what they were saying about Swamp Thing. As I heard it, his grabs have armour and can block projectiles, but only after they've grabbed you ... which means that you've been grabbed and can't shoot projectiles. Am I missing something here?

Does that mean that if he grabs the guy after the projectile launches but before it hits, then he has armour against the projectile?

Is there any logical reason why Captain Cold's 12 - DB3 still doesn't link? Someone help me out

Weren't you an Imposter Shinnok main? You don't like vortexes or 50/50s?

That's a very good question.

I was a Quan Chi main in MK9 and at the time I really enjoyed 50/50s, so in MKX I picked Shinnok up the second he got them in the very first patch and he quickly became my main.

MKX had so many 50/50s that they worn out on me quickly though, so I slowly changed my main to Boneshaper, still with Impostor I always got better results.
