OH SHIT!!!!!! Second teleport doesn't knock them to the ground as fast as it did pre patch. Now you can do 2 teleport punches mid screen before you use spear to continue the combo. I guess that is what they meant by Fixed an issue where Scorpion’s Teleport Punch would pass through opponents who are in a state where they cannot be repelled

midscreen f22u3 xx Teleport, nj3 xx Teleport, MB Spear, b3, j3, 2u3 xx slide = 32% (34% with j1)

I'm trying to land that combo myself, but can't seem to get the timing right when doing the MB Teleport after the nj 3.

I'm starting to like Scorpion more and more as my main every day. Might need to change my avatar soon. Lobo community is becoming too mainstream.

Ahhh yea! I've been playing him as a second since the Zod patch now im starting to learn so much more with him from using background bounces to mixing the vortex up rather than just using b2 or b12. It's getting really fun, I just hope this forum comes alive again besides just 1man so we can discuss Matchups and all that good stuff.

Scorpion is good now, but i still think he's just like mk9 scorpion, high risk high reward, and no one will use him in any tournament ;___; .

He was used on this Tuesday's The Break Injustice weekly by a guy that goes by Immortal Angel I think.
He was pretty good, except he could've used better bnbs.

1man3letters I have a question. Was Scorpion's 2U3 always an overhead or did this patch change it to overhead?
Click to expand...

was always a overhead, just that it whiffed on certain crouching characters so now it hits everyone crouching was designed to.

another thing that got better in patch is 112~stage bounce and 3~stage bounce hits the female chars in both stances now :)

I am guessing against characters like Catwoman and Hawkgirl?

And that is also nice so that works on everyone too now?

Does 113 whiff at all on certain characters?

Recently after the patch dropped, i started using Scorpion and im having lots of fun using this character.

when i went online, i got like 6 winning streaks with him and it was still my day one with him, Im not trying to show that im a pro or anything here but this is what happened. On day two i played some offline matches with my friend and it was even, but still scorpion really irritated him lol.

Anyways, why do people say that this char is low tier or bad?! He has lots and lots of good tools, a good low starter, an overhead (kinda slow unfortunately), an unblockable move that stops people from turtling, a good J1 and J3 (even after the nerf IMO),a viable vortex and not to mention the mind games.

Right now the only problem i see with him is that he really requires meter for his game, but does that really make him bad?

I really want to know your opinions and why do you think he is good or bad.

I know that lots of people here hate a MK character being in a DC universe, but here im talking about him as a char in a fighting game not whether you like him or not, so please keep that in mind if you want to post a reply :)

Thanks.
