General/Other - Kung Lao Kung Lao's Meter GAIN Glitch Discussion

[BigMilk]

It's a bug that doesn't belong in the game. In most cases I would say ban since that's the way it should be but given the situation, I would say let KL abd if this bug is used in match, automatic DQ or loss of the round. That way KL players still get to represent their character.

 

[Sutter Pain]

It existed before the patch.

Yeah I just realized that crazy this is just now being brought up after 2 majors.

 

[Yoaks]

Why when it's full combo punishable? I'd rather kill them.

My reasoning is this. The wakeup itself is easily stuffable and does not have armor and punishable. A smart Lao player will never use wu teleport when getting pressured. The only reason to ever wu with this is to get the bar. So why not just ban Lao players from waking up teleport? It doesn't hurt their gameplan at all.

 

[Alright RyRy]

Who wakes up with a hat toss?

 

[Drew9795]

Well that's a problem...footage?

Who wakes up with a hat toss?

if you get knocked full screen, wakeup hat toss and a free bar lol.

My only gripe is if Lao has a bar of meter, getting knocked down is in his favor or at least completely safe with wakeup tele. Or if he hits with wakeup tele, full combo with a free bar of meter.

I say just ban wakeup tele And hat toss.

 

[ericscissorkick]

I remember when people were saying raidens meter gain was bullshit. look at ermac and kung lao laughing thier asses off.


Btw Not sure if this had been said but they patched ermacs meter gain in spectral

 

[Alright RyRy]

Yeah wakeup hat toss is a terrible decision no matter how you slice it.

My only gripe is if Lao has a bar of meter, getting knocked down is in his favor or at least completely safe with wakeup tele. Or if he hits with wakeup tele, full combo with a free bar of meter.

I say just ban wakeup tele.

Right, I totally understand that.

I suggest there be a judge on hand and when a KL player starts a match they just waive over a judge to have them watch.

Ohhhhh shit...just the teleport might have been ok. Debateable. But a wakeup hat throw from full screen? That's a wrap...

Wakeup hat toss if you get knocked full screen. Free meter.

 

[Chrishaspads]

That's what I'm trying to avoid. I don't want to see KL mains have a shitty time at combo breaker... and I also don't want to see brokenness in top 8 or on stream. Makes our game look horrible.

exactly like how can you take it seriously

 

[Chaosphere]

@The BOSS

Yo free meter on wakeup hat toss too. If you get knocked full screen... free meter. I updated the OP.

 

[ericscissorkick]

People that are saying ban the move. Are you serious? Why not just ban sand toss while were at it.

If this is so easy to do then it will be easy to punish.

 

[Matix218]

Pssh thats by design

 

[Afro_physicist]

If you wakeup with tele or hat throw you're not gonna win. Ever. Just disqualify anyone who uses the glitch. If someone uses steroids in baseball they get disqualified, why not apply same logic to mk? I know for a fact that if someone glitches melee and tries to be master hand they would probably not be allowed to play any more matches

So you mean to tell me if you get hit by any move that knocks you full screen, you wouldn't use wakeup hat toss for a free bar of meter?

 

[Alright RyRy]

It going to make KL the freest character to rush down then. If KL can't wake up with any other special besides Spin.

 

[Creepy00]

Hmm, why not just limited the number of times Kung Lao can do wake up tele (regular) like 2-3 times max? Anything than that would result in forfeiting the match.

I don't think banning a whole character is fair for those that played him since release day.

What are your thoughts about wakeup hat toss after getting knocked full screen? That's messed up right?

 

[Chaosphere]

People that are saying ban the move. Are you serious? Why not just ban sand toss while were at it.

Because sand toss works as intended and doesn't give you a free bar of meter.

If you know you'll get a free bar for that you'll be a fool if you won't. Cyrax and Kabal were on steroids through all of MK9. Noone said a word.
Come on guys, a character was banned for having one broken move, but another one will not for having a bunch? Feeling bad for Lao players, but colt better hurry up with a hotfix option for random bar gaining.

Do you play lao? Why in the world would anyone wakeup with anything except spin?

 

[Afk Skinny]

Lol does Lao get meter from any other wakeups?

 

[MadeFromMetal]

Do you play lao? Why in the world would anyone wakeup with anything except spin?

To gain a bar of meter.
