I just tried it out and yes, the damage is the same following the frozen damage on the health bar (so long as she doesn't move) except that the game then adds the initial hit (18% uppercut) to the 53% combo that followed it. So it is a display glitch. Oh well. It was interesting for a little while.
Check out this video, it's the same thing only with Skarlet.I just tried it out and yes, the damage is the same following the frozen damage on the health bar (so long as she doesn't move) except that the game then adds the initial hit (18% uppercut) to the 53% combo that followed it.

**Edit: And it was nice to see 71% with Sub Zero!**
Looks like a GamerBlake combo. But I didn't see anything like the display glitch. Looked like a regular corner combo to me. Am I missing something?
Skarlet's blood ball does 7% to herself, Jade's combo does 59%. Skarlet's health bar is reset when Jade jumps on her, but the total damage is displayed as a 66% combo.
Okay. I see that. I don't have any of the DLC, so I never knew Skarlet's move took damage from herself. Seems stupid to me, but then I just don't have the big brains of a "Noob Saibot," ya dig?
if you use glow with moderation then you do it right
. I agree that it does lead to huge combos, I'm not debating about that. But if you can punish without using glow, I like to do it without
Yeah, that 18% uppercut with the breaking sound hurts lol My brother uses d3 though, which bothers me a lot.if you use glow with moderation then you do it right
The reason I say it's trash is using it offensively since the little frames you do to ex glow could've been used to continue pressure, if you use it defensively it's good. But eating an uppercut for almost 20%... maaan I hate that part hahaha
but then again, thats my opinion so don't take my word for facts
When Ex Glow used in the right situation, it's always a surprise. When it's being used predictable then there's no fear of it. Same thing when Sonya players abuse the armored Ex Cartwheel, they complain how OP it is but a predictable Cartwheel used I have no respect for. It's the Sonya players that save their meters use the armored Ex Cartwheel at the right time that frightens me also it instills the threat she can use it at any moment when you least expect if she's running on full meter. Jade's Ex Glow can be used the same way but it's just that Jade's set ups aren't as good to turn purple instantly. Majority of the time the other player jumps away or is out of range on her Ex Glow for her to attack. I think maybe there should be a discussion on wonderful set ups to activate Ex Glow for scenarios and particular match ups. I would love the MK community to call Jade's Ex Glow OP like they complain about Sonya's armored Ex Cartwheel. Right now Ex Glow hasn't been exploited... Up3 had its run R.I.P. Up3...nerfed!
Jade is the ultimate switch-char because you really gotta use everything she has at the right times. I've been called unpredictable by good players when I decided to use all her moves at least once in every match. With Jade you need to understand that her options are the "mixup" not highs and lows but long and short attacks, she's that telegraphed and shitty on recovery because with the right read and the right momentum you shut people down. Every character.
There are definitely very good examples in this video on how to use glow, but there are bad ones as wellMr. Mileena played Jade on stream, check her out at 1:24:40.

I learned a few things from Mr. Mileena using that Ex Purple Glow
Good stuff Mr. Mileena.
I was using Jade last night online, that happens to be the worst place to use her. All I have to say is OMG jumping and cross ups everywhere... that happens online only and it totally "F" ups her spacing and counter attack moves. Like an Up3 didn't hit a jumper when you knew where were about to jump in far away, B2 missed their jump in and their air punch recovery knocked her out. So I've been trying to use her Shadow Kick and her Sweep getting past the jumpfest online so far it's been working. Her standing 1 online as AA is a joke, I could not get it to work. Jade must be so much more accurate and better offline. Also a blocked Sweep from Jade puts her at -1 so Ex Purple Glow was a good set up I used and if you are about to be jip combo'd her Ex Purple Glow worked as perfect AA to combo back, she takes 6% damage and does 30-35% combo punish back. By watching Mr. Mileena's Jade I just learned she can Ex Purple Glow during cross ups, I assume you have to reverse the input. I find her difficulty getting a big combo started without an assisted jip to connect B1~Slam, 2~Slam, 3~Slam really slow start ups with terrible reach. If only her 4 connected with Slam, that would make her better as opposed to 1,2~Slam which means her Staff Slam will need to lose frames and be much faster... seriously Kabal's Knee, Cage's F3, Sonya's Knee all connect with a combo launcher. Jade relies on your opponent to duck her Staff Slam and jump at her B2 for average damage...Jade's Knee pads need a tweak. Jade competing in the damage department is a struggle, original damage nerfed hurt her game, the Up3 nerf made her footsie game weaker... Imagine nerfing Sheeva's F4... Up3 was Jade's best normal tool. A solid character like Kitana has so many opening opportunities for high damage even with a Jump Kick~Fan Toss 40% right there and that doesn't include her incredible reaching F2,1 and 2,1,Ex Fan combo launchers. Jade... 8% Staff Grab... 8% Staff Slam... still 8% on Ex Staff Slam.. 6% Shadow Kick... 10% Ex Shadow Kick ...Ex Boomerangs don't grant a free combo.. only Ex Staff Grab is worth the 14% 1 bar spent but it is absolute worst scaling in combos 2-3%. She has no stagger move that allows a free jump in blockstring like Kitana's Cutter/Sonya's F4. Jade's damage is not even a threat, you can simply take the life lead because she lacks the huge comeback factor. She is a good turtle character with spacing but there are characters like Smoke who perform better. She just has better zoning control in certain MUs like Sindel, Noob, Kano etc. Well, hopefully new strategies are found as the game evolves and possibly Jade can be better than her current state.
Like charlie fucking sheen right on the spot, bro.
Excelent stuff, i've learned so many things by viewing your games.
He got destroyed.
