I have another thought.
Could it be possible that MMH players weren't downplaying before?
Is it possible that they actually thought x amount of bad match-ups were bad?
Now I know this is a radical and likely improbable train of thought, but follow me here.
With relation to the rest of the cast, and his placement in the release line-up of DLC, MMH hasn't been around as long as many other characters.
Add to that his execution barrier and you probably don't have that many true MMH mains out there.
So when they're talking, still learning their character, they discuss certain match-ups and their struggles in them.
Could it be that them saying these match-ups are bad is just apart of the learning process?
Are we sure they're horrible down players that need to be put on "blast" by posting a set of online casuals because reasons?
What if they're still learning the match-up and posting what they feel about it at the time? Match-ups change over time, don't they?
Yes, good players will play characters better than less-stellar players. That's pretty obvious. However, top players get the match-up wrong intially as well. It's not like the gane has been out for two years or more like MK. No one knows every match-up 100%. Hell, even high-level players aren't doing as many reversals and whiff punishes as possible, because the game is still evolving.
What if they're not downplaying...they're just trying to learn?
Imagine that...a competitive site where players share information to become better players.
Surely, this is an irrational concept and I should be banned.
