General/Other - Kung Lao Kung Lao General Discussion

So what we got here, I've missed the beginning

 

[Captain l2ed]

I believe we made it out unscathed boys. Lao looks more or less the same but still looks good. I'm excited.

 

[Tweedy]

Remember when I ranted about how Lao needs a better intercept normal, like Mileena's standing 2?

B1 boys.

 

[Saltea Moonspell]

Its how Lao should be designed in the first place. Now there is legit reason to use his other tools.

 

[Tweedy]

B1 is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than his S1 as an intercept normal. Just go into practice mode and look at the range difference, then imagine less recovery and faster start up on B1.

EX teleport being unreactable will add an extension to his stagger game, F21 being -3 will make F2 a more legit stagger and add to post EX orbiting hat mind games. His 7 frame D1 will give him real frame traps.

Boys we might be back in business.

My only concern is that he might have one of the weaker anti air games now that he has no armor on EX spin. The top dozen and a half jump ins easily stuffed normal spin and standing 1 before, no matter how well you timed them. I know people roasted me when I said that EX spin is his only anti air but it was the truth man lol.

We're gonna have to get swaggy and run under people for anti airs and shit. Anticipate with NJPs and air to air jump 3s. Stuff like that. His D1, S1 and regular spin just aren't reliable, unless they nerf jump ins, more than the patch notes indicate.

I might pick up Buzzsaw again after this patch.

I find regular spin very reliable honestly. Also ex spin will still be an excellent anti air honestly, I mean I mostly use it on reaction when I expect my opponent to jump at me anyway. Just make the read and I think you'll beat their jump in almost every time.

Do You already have the patch ?

I never had problems with AA with s1, even d1 into b31 as Hattrick.

WHOA B1 IS A GODLIKE ANTI AIR NOW

 

[myri]

This ex tele. I LIKE IT A LOT.

 

[Saltea Moonspell]

Shieeet....this we are living the dream

 

[Captain l2ed]

I'm loving this feedback .I'm excited to get home and make new strategies.

 

[Saltea Moonspell]

due to the changes hattrick had with his hat properties some stuff now has different timing, i am dropping a lot of stuff lol - the gravity is better, giving easier juggle options

 

[Saltea Moonspell]

Okay, KL can confirm b22 into ex tele and b12 into ex tele. That is fucking Swaggy <3
Out of b12 into ex tele kung lao dose mid screen 42% that was never possible in Hattrick variation pre-patch, even with MacFly setups !

 

[gibster13]

Im in love with his b12

 

[PPJ]

 

[Saltea Moonspell]

Great finding man! looks great! in Love !

 

[ienjoywinning]

Stop with these posts I CAN'T TAKE IT

 

[Error]

Nice, these helped me find a good foundation for a B12 combo
B12 spin, S4xxDF2 instant divekick b12,2+4
28%

 

[The PantyChrist]

Keep in mind the jump attacks were adjusted as well so no armor on spin may not be as bad as you think

 

[Eddy Wang]

Forever Kung Bro.

I have a lot to talk about.

 

[Tweedy]

B1 xx orbiting hat is kinda tight.

But oh my god Lao is back. This is amazing.

But oh my god Lao is back. This is amazing.

Lao PTSD gets triggered

INCASE you guys didn't realize yet this doesn't exactly work , for one after the b321 ex df1 you aren't plus enough to hit a f1 so cassie for example can just do b12 or something and it'll beat yours , also if you just crouch f14 the ex df1 won't even hit , it'll go behind them
