General/Other - Sektor Reign In Ketchup - Sektor PRE-RELEASE Thread

[MKF30]

So people have XL already? Before street date?

 

[Gengar]

don't know the damage.

his S4 had better recovery and was easy to do in combos two days ago now after the patch they have increased its recovery.

Before the patch:

- his missile BF1 was -8 and had way better startup and recovery .. now -18 on block

- Sektor F3 was SPECIAL CANCELLABLE

- MB DD3 was +9 on Block ... now -13

- D1 was -11 on Block ... now -5 which is good for him.

THEY NERFED HIM HARD ... he was never meant to live

not sure why everyone is so sad about the nerfs.

Projectile frame data assumes youare point blank, if you shoot a missile point blank you deserve to be punished. If you are full screen the -18 is not anywhere near as bad, and your character has amazing mobility with the air dash, port, and the robots appear to have some form of slide normal as well.

the complaint about ex flamethrower is definitely the worst tho. its an armored wake up that hits pretty much everywhere. it blows up cross ups and all sorts of pressure. you should only be doing it on a read that they will pressure or on reaction to a jump, which can mess up many wake ups but not this one. furthermore, the input is DD so even when they jump over you they cant mess up your inputs.

Also wouldn't it be wiser to simply make a Triborg combo thread and split it that way? 4 variations covered, no need for 4 different threads. Simple stuff really.

Way to many differences in the vari's for that to work , they need to be treated like diff characters

I could but I wanted a thread about Sektor specific.

You sure about that? It's not like they all have different variations. Use spoiler tags to condense the thread. Simple stuff to avoid clutter

Some of them got it 2 days earlier.

don'tbrokenthe damage.

EDIT: B1 2+4 (( the overhead )) was -1 on block ... now its -11. but now you can Meter Burn it for an extended combo.

You know,I think that the pre patch Sektor would be broken

Too much clutter no matter what , look at it this way - I play smoke , I wanna look for b2 starter combos , so I go to tri Borg combo guide , then I gotta find the starter , then I have to look thru a bunch of combos that don't even apply to my character jus to find smokes : nobody wants to do that

I think that triborg is 4 chars and not 1 with 4 variations, it is just easier for me to catch up with him because I am not willing to play the other 3.

 

[God Confirm]

The character is not out for most of us.

Relax.

When the time comes I will update the thread, I do not know what exactly you were expecting from a thread about a char that released before an hour?

I thought the second post was your OP, 2 combos with no damage notation, that combined with the poor English in the title, I was just having a bit of a chuckle is all.

That being said, if you don't have the characters yet and you have absolutely nothing to contribute, maybe let someone who does make the thread, because this looks pretty poor.

Meh you could say the same even more accurately about Ermac or Shinnok and others, they worked just fine in the one thread.

No because they share at least 2 or three specials and have universal combos , triborg does not

Alright, I smell what you guys are cookin' sounds great. But why wouldn't you just simply break the thread into 4 nested spoiler tags for each character? Inside those tags simply list combos by starter. It's incredibly simple and saves everybody time.

Yeah that sucks man! damn lucky fuckers lol

 

[Olcadan13]

There should be a 4 in 1 combo thread, separating variations and even starters if you want to go the extra mile with spoilers, similar to the Scorpion kombo thread
http://testyourmight.com/threads/all-optimal-combos-as-of-6-25-patch.53712/

 

[SaltShaker]

BB = Back Back

21/F43//111/etc(starters)~TelePunch, S4, F43~EX Telepunch, F212 BB for restand into UpMissile pressure.

(Starters)~ TelePunch, S4, F43~EX Telepunch, 212~ UpMissile for KD into UpMissile pressure.


These are mine. Damage in low to mid 30s depending on starter. You guys can start here to see if you can expand in any way.

 

[Samsara]

Look it's pretty simply to have nested information by variation and then by starter. Since we have four variations (characters), just nest the thread by variation and list combos by starter. Like this: http://testyourmight.com/threads/sub-zero-combo-thread-patch-8-31.55743/page-1

Use a similar format but list by character instead of variation.

 

[Olcadan13]

Also if this becomes the official kombo thread the OP should be constantly updating the original post with all the kombos posted in the thread

ok that sucks.. i have a problem with the EX flame being negative if thats what your referring to

i was hoping for him to have some close up pressure with it to even out his zoning holes.. cuz we know there will be with those startups. in this MK type of World we need some offense to battle the constant guessing pressure to get those zoning setups out...

but im sure even without the EX flame he will be a great character.. TYM has always proven to find new tech even for the worst of Kombatants and turned them to Gold top tiers.

BTW i feel Jason Relentless climbed a few ladders on his way up the tier list this XL patch.

and to an earlier post... i feel that each variation of triborg is Separate Characters in every way, thier own unique norms, specials and style. there should be separate threads for each flavor weather it be Blue, Yellow, Red or Grey.

Hi to all. Today the son of the grandmaster, the true heir of the Lin Kuei has returned in MKXL. I has fell in love with this character back in MK9. Post what you find: combos, tech or gimmicks

 

[Gengar]

Hidden brutality on flamethrower. Ex does not do it, only regular.

Any requirements or special annotations?

Any requirements or special annotations?

I did it by accident, the person jumped when it hit and I had done a few ex flamethrowers throughout the match. I can't think of anything else that might have been a requirement.
