Cyber is not that bad. He's not too good against the new cast but I think it's a mu thing at the moment.

B1 is meh. But it's not like he's supposed to use that for tons of pressure.

I like the up laser even more now and iab is really good. I use it to troll but I got to figure out the distances.

He's not bad. But a few more buffs would be nice.

Too tell the truth is think he's just as good as before. He seems quicker. I do think know. Kano makes me think differently.

Knifes keep them out so I'll adjust my style from offense and neutral to defense and turtle.

He's ok.

It honestly sounds like Kano isn't for you. All your complaining; maybe you just need a character with tools that make more sense to you. Shouldn't force him to be your main if it ain't workin'.

Kano has 3 working Variations now. If you wanna still play Kano and can't figure out Cyber, try the other two. Cutthroat is the best imo. Followed by Commando and then Cybernetic. But just because it's the weakest variation it doesn't not mean it isn't viable or anything. Its still good to me.

In that order CT cmd and Cyber you are absolutely right. It's obvious. It's ok.

I main kano. He's life. He's love and he's a beast. The other 2 variations are going to get a lot more attention for me but they don't have those grenade strings and those annoying mid knives I love to use so much but it's ok.

Even if he was the worst variation in the game I'll still use him because...

That's my man.

It's all he needs because he is a zoner in cybernetic.

His knives are what the variation is about and doing only 5% means he can't trade with any projectile. It would make a huge difference.

Cybernetic is awful

Exdb1 should be mid
Knives should do 6%

That's all he needs

I still think Cybernetic is still very good. I've been labbing him even more harder them before and I find he really does stack up well against CT. Maybe even more so because those mid knifes force you to block or jump in and b1 or upball forces them back which you can run in and do a quick 50/50 or 112 string to get things going.

He's not has rushed down as in previous versions from Patches ago and he is lacking in damage like his other variations but his annoying keep away tools he uses are fantastic.

He's not too bad. I would even go as far as to say cyber takes patience and understanding to really win with him but he is outgunned in a lot of ways but he compliments his other variations so well and in my opinion he beats out CT & cmd has well. Only instant air ball can get into cyber and if blocked or whiffed. It's b1 time with a Kool 20%-28% corner carry combo and some serious footsies work into his b232+4 or b123+4 MB strings.

It's the corner where cyber reigns supreme.

He's still very good. He just needs more help and more love to make him a very decent variation.

Pre nerf kano was ok. But he would not stack up either in mk9 or XL. Its funny. Block high against mk9 kano block low for cyber. Only cmd and CT get true 50/50's going for kano where it's all pressures and footsies for cyber. Go figure.

Mk9 Kano was butchered. Depleted. Bombed out. Incomplete dawg. Connecting his b1212 into f212 was touchy at best and he didn't have tremendously great armor on his kano ball in EX version.

It was nothing compared to Barakas ex blade charge which went full screen. Had very good armor and would blow through ice clones and Kung Lao's ridiculous ex teleports or trade at best.

Cyber Kano is still very good. He's no CT or cmd kano but he's got tools which gives those other kano a real run for there money. Can he win most match ups? Honestly... I believe he can but he's got to be 100% on his game in play with a lead. Not so much of a realistic and reliable comeback factor for cyber. But in all honesty I pass over cmd & CT because I do believe not many truly know the mu and just how wicked cyber can be. But you have got to fight. He's like GM sub in a way.

7 frame up laser which you can run to do 112 ball. Not to mention his ex version which is a great extender in of itself.

His eye laser which can be used as armored reversals into pure devastating pressures and Combos.

Mid knifes that complement his fantastic footsies tools that hit mid and have a really good speed to it.

I ain't up playing but this dude is really good. He just needs some serious attention more so the CT.

Nah he's been explored, he's just the lesser version of the other two. Still has MUs where he's worth using.

The thing about a 50/50 is no matter how much you practice blocking it, it is still a 50/50. I think I'm paraphrasing Sonic Fox with that first sentence. Cybernetic doesn't have a 50/50 and if he did get cutthroats 50/50 he'd be instantaneously broken. Now if he got Commandos command throw, just Rib Cracker not Power Bomb, then I think he'd be legit.

Oh wait he's at +8 with his corner re-stand. Shit I take it back; It should Be Power Bomb not Ribcracker. That way he'd be force to sacrifice the corner if he chose to throw.

Adding a command grab would make no sense at all.

Well it would give him 50/50s in the form of hit/throw mix-ups. Now i understand he uses his regular throw for that but it can be teched, especially since they increased the throw-tech window by 4 frames. It also deals less damage than Power Bomb. Power Bomb allowing free side switch at the end of combos is also helpful. Commando would still be the better grappler since he can pick the side he stays on aswell as scare people into blocking with his parries. They could even make it so it's not enhance-able in the Cyber variation.
