Show me what you can do
Can you explain why? I don't disagree, nor do I agree. I've gone up against some crazy Quans, to the point where I think I blocked like 90% of the match. Others I've done well against, fairly even I'd say.

Liu Kang is a lot faster mostly, and his strings are easy to fall into. Quan just feels sluggish in comparison.
I wouldn't say it's a 7-3 for Liu but definitely a 6-4 in his favor.. possibly 5-5 if you learn how to take care of his mixups / zoning and parry game.
His mixups and zoning are really no problem imo. And if I'm not mistaken, B3 works against his parry anyway, doesn't it?
You may be right. I don't know, I guess I haven't had much matchup experience against Liu, but I usually got blown up. He's quite a fast character, and his strings always take him all the way across the screen so it's hard to punish unless you throw out a naked trance.
His zoning is a problem, you can't skydrop on him due to his fast recovery. His mixups aren't the problem, it's the fact that his normals and strings are so much faster than Quan. It's certainly a bad MU for Quan. Cage can't zone you, I really don't mind that MU, I'll play Cage with QC all day but Liu...ugh.
Naked trances are the worst, I usually get hit by them quarter to mid-screen.
=D, the more Liu gives people trouble the better. Would you say 5-5?
There's this cool move called Trance. The input is BF3.
Yes, but you have to be within the correct range. Play a good Liu Kang and not a B312 x infinity Liu Kang player. It's a rough MU.
lol... do you want the whole match to just be free for you?
Not really, tbh. He's relatively bad in the corner, yeah, but like I said, do you just want the match to be free? He's fine if you know what you're doing.
I don't, no. But I agree with the 3-7 assessment. I just switch to JC honestly. I'll play a 4-6 (don't mind playing Cage at all since I'm very familiar with him) but 3-7 is more effort than I care for. Quan players are aware that he has bad MUs and I don't feel it's realistic to simply play Quan alone. He's a good character, but you're naive if you're going to play him alone.
Imo, he's really not even harder than JC. There's just more stuff you need to consider. It doesn't make it any more difficult, there's just more depth to the match up.
Your from Canada?!? Where have you been all my li- all of this year?!!? I've been looking for canadians for awhile now.
I still feel that people don't want to acknowledge the pink elephant in the room in that Quan does get zoned out pretty badly by quickly recovering projectiles. Yeah, Quan can make some trades here and there with his, but I wouldn't say that his projectile is fantastic by any means.
this is no joke
This makes me feel a little better about being terrible at this matchup.
Quan would probably do okay if he had solid enough normals.
