I think Sub Zero does a bit more damage now.
They actually nerfed t1k, interesting.
Motaro health increased, good.
Kung Lao kameo orbiting hat is actually a nice buff.
They really want to make Darrius viable, he's actually a very good pick cause of the health boost.

 

Reptile acid ball now a mid, noice.

Wondering how the autoblock on Homelander air cancels affect his gameplay (I hope it ruins it lol).

Also definitive edition trailer just launched soooooo, the rumors about end of support are getting more credibility?

 

Reptile got buffed, AGAIN.

Gotta love it!

 

Was not expecting more health for Conan, so that's pretty neato. Grats to Razzle Dazzle obtaining a license to deal damage.

Also, wasn't Cyrax supposed to die this patch?

Cyrax has been dying at all the tournaments since Mexico

It also says "And more", so not really.

 

I hope the change to Reiko's air grab means it actually fucking hits mid now and can't be poked under.

 

It also says "And more", so not really.

"And more" from a marketing team can mean literally anything. It could actually be that more is to come, but it's not the smart bet at this point (at least that it'll be anything substantial). Rumors are absolutely more credible now.

I can't wait for his contrarian and speaking in definitives response telling you you're wrong. We're all wrong in fact. He will know best. Just wait for him to bestow his infinite knowledge upon us.

Or we're gonna get the strawman that "and more" can mean more DLC, which could just be skins. I think the players would like more actual content as part of the "and more" than skins they'll possibly never use.

 

Reading on reddit, the "and more" seems to actually refer to Liu Kang's Bruce Lee skin (plus all the other bonuses from previous preorders and premium skins) and apparently nothing more. I will wait before affirming "they wont do ANYTHING else" because, before the game launched, there was a leak that predicted story details and stuff that was accurate for EVERY item in the leaked list... except kombat kodes.

It wouldn't surprise me if it's the case at all.

And why it is not the smart thing to do? Also rumors said that Floyd isn't coming and look were we are.

 

So basically nothing lol

 

And why it is not the smart thing to do? Also rumors said that Floyd isn't coming and look were we are.

Because marketing has no need to be accurate and there's decades of examples of this? Main rumor of note didn't mention floyd at all to my memory.

It was a separated rumor, and it was proven wrong. Point is any rumor can be wrong, the fact that we both call it a "rumor" means it is not confirmed. Also that doesn't answer my question, of course that statement isn't gonna be accurate, because they don't wanna show us what's coming before it does. And yes it could be very little or a lot, but something is coming on top of the movie skins.

 

They know it, we know it… Crimsonshadow doesn’t lol

 

Looking back at the franchise's history under NetherRealm Studios, once the "komplete edition" of a game is released, the only additional content we've had is balance patches, and for Mortal Kombat XL, a Cassie and Jacquie Skin. I don't believe there was ever anything further.

So while anything is possible, odds are we'll see one or two more balances patches and maybe a skin or so.

 

This is the type of shit I be talking about. We need leaks to know anything about the game. One of my biggest irks about NRS is their lack of communication, it’s been a long running issue.

EX is a mid yes, but is it really

He did it after Liu Kang's Low Fireball, when he clearly lowers his hurtbox more than regular duck. Common sense.

That happened in MKX also, when Sub-Zero's slide allowed him to slide under Reptile's Forceball because of his hurtbox.

Oof, bad news lol

It would be common sense if it worked the same way for EVERY mid projectile in the game. A baby push for Reptile again despite the rest of the cast sprinting past him. Props to the people responsible to keep him off the map for the WHOLE game.
