Anyone else notice how far Scorpion kipped up when he got to his feet? It also looked like an attack. Odds on it was just NRS doing cinema stuff and its not a move, but it makes me hope for something in particular...Tekken style wakeup options that are universal. Its probably not happening but for the sake of argument lets imagine it is similar to Tekken options. I could see MKX if its doing this having.
- Roll forward
- Roll away
- Lunge attack forward (kip up into lunge kick that we saw)
- Lunge attack backward ( likely something like rolling backwards onto your feet but similar to the kip up they push off with their hands into a lunge kick)
- neutral attack (similar to the tekken feet facing opponent low poke)
Like I said...just spitballing potentialities after that trailer...still if this does happen having universally around 5 options with each character to poke and cover some ground on wakeup before dipping into their other moves or any potential armored wakeups is pretty fun. More options means less vortexes so I'm hoping this is actually happening. Good chance it was just an animation they threw in to help tie in two parts of the fight they'd choreographed on the storyboard for this trailer though.
