Burning down in flames for kicks
I'm curious what makes you think this? I'm still convinced Summoner is Quan's best variation, with Sorcerer being either on par or very slightly behind.
My personal opinion is warlock is best as it has it has armour option and less bad mus than the rest. Just a lot of 5-5s. Sorcerer and summoner have glaring weaknesses that hinder him whereas warlock is fairly complete. That's just my experience though. Since I play all variations I find myself choosing warlock more often in competitive play.

@D7X i feel Quan could be the most balanced character in the game across all three variations and they nailed the variation system in his design

her B212 goes through clone, could be wongr but i do that every time they clone off F4
Raw Klone off of F4 isn't something I think is that good right? Or at least in certain matchups it isn't. I'm pretty sure you want to be doing klone off of strings that hit or on block if the character can't punish it free but idk i don't play Subby so I'm not too too knowledgeable on him

Fools gold. You can counter-zone Sub-zero with Spec Ops full screen but he can do slide on reaction close enough and then you're in the blender thanks to her lack of good wakeups. B212 is good thanks to its disjointed hitbox but most subs won't leave you in the ideal position to where its effective. They'd pretty much just have to D4 clone in your face for you to be able to punish.

Grandmaster hits Cassie hard with Hollywood doing the best and Brawler doing the worst.

from what ive seen, everyone uses F4 to get clone out, and with EX clone its like the only thing thats fast enough for him to break armor moves with.

I don't have big problems with Shinnok but I still know it's a bad matchup for Cassie. Grandmaster/Shinnok just counter a lot of her tools.

It is better this way

Drone strike is too slow and SZ is too mobile for it to be a problem, brawler has NO meterless options for the clone, that shit is 7-3 free. B212 may hit him through it if he is an idiot and stands right behind it, Hollywood's ia guns can contest it but they aren't enough.

Cassie only destroys GM if you do perfect iaG.
Otherwise 7-3 all day and 10-0 in the corner.
Even if you do them perfect, she still doesn't destroy him
I changed it allready

I'll have to get back to you on that one! The patch is still a bit young but my top 5 is (at the moment in no particular order )

Kitana (Royal Storm)
Sub Zero (Cryo)
Sub Zero (GM)
Predator (HQT)
Quan Chi (Summoner)

Keep in mind that top 5 isn't final by any means that's just to give you an idea of how I'm looking at the game right now. I can have a tier list in the near future but it'll take awhile as there is a lot of stuff to go over.

Which Ermac, Spectral?

Kinda off topic out of personal curiosity I'd love to see a professional level match between GM Sub and Cyber Sub. O_0

*edit* Well this is the closest I've found for now at least -
