Please no Quan Chi bandwagoners.


So j2 into B+2 after combo starters? Saw Chef doing that a lot. Guess I'll have to test it's consistency and if it works in all strings. Oh and the uppercut ender to send fullscreen, curious to see if it's more damage than b324. Neat stuff, too bad we didn't see the fancy double uppercut combos in the corner. Probably showcased in his max damage output vids.

When in doubt, Neutral Jump it out. The quan chi motto to base your entire play style around.

Hello guys! I am playing quan chi and I am liking him very much! I use the summoner variation and he feels like Freddy from mk9 but better! Shower I am having one problem and it is making me want to kill myself. I have release check and such set to off but when I block low and go to punish with b2 or b3 bat summon or skull comes out and I get blown up and it makes me look like a scrub. Anybody else having this problem?

 

[SquirtMcGirt]

Never mind figured it out! It was because I was rolling to b instead of releasing and giving a crisp press to back. Go I'm horrible at this game lol.

[Dr Jackal]

Well guys, I'm sorry I have to say this but I'm droppig the Quan Chibi. I will still be finding tech and such, but for my main will now be Jason and Jason only.

Btw there will be some Quan videos for tech coming up that you should look out for (Sorceror only).

 

[Rude]

Why Jason?

 

[macro]

Why Jason?

I love the character
he's easy to support
he's not a MK caracter
he doesn't have a big name to support him yet
I love the comics
the one variation I like to play from quan is incomparable to sommoner

 

[wsj515]

Anyone else really really miss Quan's mk9 woolays and aweeboalays during trance/teleport/etc?

Most people play summoner.

I haven't touched the others, seen some Warlock, looks ok, doesn't do enough though. If you want the best go summoner. Don't know enough about sorcerer to say where it's ranked, probably better than Warlock though.

Sorry for the late shoutout but congratulations to @EGP Wonder_Chef and Quan papa @STB Shujinkydink for what they did at NWM 7.

Dink, to bad there aren't babalities in this game so you could baby Justin again behehe.

 

[PANDEMlC]

I know this is kind of a random question but who are your guys secondaries? I'm finding it really hard to get into anyone other than Quan. I've been dabbling in War God Kotal but is there anyone you guys play that you think has that sort of uniqueness similar to Quan? While Kotal is nice and all I don't find his core gameplay to be all that interesting.

There's not much Quan can do in the corner against anyone lol. Just guess right and get the fuck out of there pretty much.

While i consider myself to be a Cyber Kano main as of now, i was a die hard Loyalist to Quan in MK9. That he's top tier does nothing but warm my heart.

Looking at the character, particularly in summoner, he feels like a momentum/setplay character with great zoning.

My concerns are for his defensive/footsie options. How does he fight high pressure characters like Cassie or Liu Kang? Or characters with long range moves like D'Vorah. I understand that once he gets a trance that the momentum, constant 50/50 guessing game is extremely powerful.

My question is, do you fish for a d3 in neutral and go straight for the 50/50? How do you all feel about his footsie/nuetral options?

Maaaaan in a few matchups, where the opponent can easily just sit on top of quan, I've started to always save a bar to ex interactable. Its been good to me since you can mash it while holding block, and tech rolling/delaying wake up(when people start getting set ups for different wake ups we'll have to completely respect the mix ups people will bring to the table to an extent). Tbh I only really use exdb4 as a reaction to punish certain options the opponent has when I jump, but I feel it's seldom worth the meter spent

I prefer to stay at d4 range and bully with his longer normals+nj2, try to clip jumps with b1xxtrance, and backdashing into NJ2/b2 if their recovering from something stupid. Not to say d3 isn't extremely useful, I mean b23 isn't safe and d3 is, but I just don't like to stay in the range d3 hits(mostly use it stop the opponents momentum).

thanks. I haven't really been using tech rolls are delayed wake ups in MKX. Need to really start using all of my tools. Thanks for the response btw

Why does b2 not anti air? I get so salty whenever I see my opponent just jump through Quan's sword and land a jump in punch. I'm not using b2 to anti air but I like to throw it out in the neutral game and my opponents jump through it way too often. It just looks dumb.
