Tech - D'Vorah Meaty B3 to avoid command grabs

[Wazminator]

Not sure how familiar everyone is with this, but D'Vorahs b3 puts her in an airborne state making her immune to cmd grabs, you can see a demonstration here

Let me know what you guys think/if you have found this already, would love to hear

Grrrr. Anti-command grab bullshit *grumble grumble*

 

[Scott The Scot]

I like this. It's good because if they do block, you're still quite plus on block. Neat!

 

[YoloRoll1stHit]

I think Takeda can do this as well

 

[CrazyFingers]

I'm convinced after Bane, NRS decided they don't like pure grapplers.

 

[CrazyFingers]

Regardless though, good tech Waz as always.

Someone should do a big ol' list of grab immune moves

(Mostly for jason cause he can fuck off)

>>16 Bit spends every day of his life crying about Bane

>>NRS hires 16 Bit

>>RIP grapplers

Good post!

 

[Darth-Nero]

This is actually perfect against Erron, it blows up all his wakeup options.

Bye bye Cryomancer, as if the matchup isn't already impossible. Now is 10-0 d'vorah's favor.

 

[Darth Mao]

Damn, another anti Sun God tech

Edit: Can this setup be backdashed?

 

[Second Saint]

For the people worrying, b3 is a high. If you think it's coming, duck and punish it.

This works from Venomous' restand too, btw. And she can get from low to upper 40's off b3 depending on what combo came before it.

Yes because being able to answer one wakeup option makes the matchup 10-0

I started that a while ago, was going to make a video montage, but the list got so long and I got so salty I just gave up lol. I do remember Dvorahs old overhead F2 specifically was also grab immune. Actually just about every low or overhead starter in the game had grab immune frames on it but then shit like Scorpions hop kick where you actually go in the air didnt have grab immunity. NRS just does not care about legitimate grappling or setting base rules in their games, hopefully they try in that regard with I2.

Yeah, has nothing to do with them being off the ground half the time. Same with the parry inconsistencies,

If you have an Anti-Air Grab it should katch her during this state... Not sure if you do though.

I was thinking (and hoping) they were trying to minimize the influence of grapplers in MK as opposed to Injustice. MK always felt more like a game focused on pressure, even in the old games.

The most hilarious thing about grab immunity is that in grappler mirrors they are one of the most important things in those matchups (Jason F3 happens a LOT in Jason mirrors)

I just hope grapplers make a come back in Injustice 2. They were so satisfying in that game from Bane's bustedness to Lobo and Grundy's hype as fucking command grabs.

You can duck the b3

No love for Shazam's 50/50 command grabs?

For as much as I dislike grapplers, finding 1000 different frames that are grab-immune is the best feeling.. lol.
Grundy's kommand grab kancels were pretty interesting though.. (I'm a fan of kancels.)
