I'm not defending the list and I'm not disagreeing with the list this post is completely neutral. To people that come in here just to say "lol (insert name) top 5" maybe the problem isn't the character maybe you aren't playing said character to the it's full potential ;)
 

Tweedy

Champion
Have any of the top players on here put some time into Ninjutsu Scorpion? Imo he has a lot of potential. His f2 is a safe launcher and his b2 is a launcher with ridiculous range. You can whiff punish with it from miles away.

I think MIT uses Ninjutsu

Why is Scorpion @ 15? Are you kidding me. Outside of that Kenshi and Sonya need to be switched and Liu Kang is now Top 10 or just outside of it.

Good list overall.

Edit: Woah Kung Lao @ #1? That's stretching it.

Thanks for not trying to say Reptile is fine and he's top tier like some people have been doing on twitter.

Just to be devil's advocate...

If the list was built on match-up numbers; couldn't you look at a character's strongest variation, then for any bad match-ups, see if his other variations cover those match-ups any better and adjust the score?

A character like Sub-Zero, for example, has a "core" variation that covers most match-ups. His other two are basically support teams for when Clone isn't useful. If GM loses a certain match-up, but Cryo makes it even (hypothetically), you could call it even overall.

Maybe? Still tedious, but less tedious than 81 separate charts.
Yea, but during a match you can only play as GM or only as Cryo, so for all practical purposes they should be treated as separate characters.
