So.
Kabal cliffnotes:
-He revolves around his hookswords now.
-The F4 Knee is back.
-Gas Blast is 100% gone. He has an equipable gas special, but it only works up close and EX's like Bo Rai Cho's Cloud.
-Also has an equipable special like BRC's staff sweep in Bartitsu.
-Spinwheel is now a full fledged projectile and can be equipped to work on the ground or airborne.
-NDC's are still a thing, but they cost a bar of defensive meter and look relatively normal as cancels go. Nothing like MK9. Flash Parry has been replaced by an equippable regular Parry that leads to full combo punish.
-Nomad Dash is one of the only specials in the game that will capture meterlessly.
Also, from what little lore they spoke of, this definitely looks and sounds like the original MKD Black Dragon I'm Evil Again Kabal, not MK9 Revenant Kabal. Same as I'm 99% sure that Baraka is that timeline's Baraka that led Mileena's army. Apparently all of his new gear and gadgets are Black Dragon based, and he had no idea who Sub-Zero was in their intro.
I am alllllllll for more 3D era persona returns.
He looks amazing.
And the Fatal Blow + Fatality looked amazinger.
Welcome back, OG.
