Insuperable
My mom tells me I'm pretty
Much like Scorpion in Injustice, Sub-Zero completely "breaks the mechanics" of not only MK9, but of all 2D fighters. He creates a clone of himself, and unless you respect this clone, you will be frozen for a short duration.
Comparing the two:
Scorpion - Teleport:
On jump | 50/50 of a jump in or a teleport
On block | Full combo punishable
On whiff | Full combo punishable
On hit (ground) | Enough advantage to give pressure, mixup opportunities (low, high, instant j1 teleport, etc.)
On hit (air) | Easily hit confirmed into 112/3 spears
On jump [ex] | 50/50 of a jump in or a teleport which leads to combo
On block [ex] | safe with pushback
On whiff [ex] | Unsafe
On hit [ex] (ground) | j3 teleport combo
On hit [ex] (air) | j3 teleport combo
Sub-Zero - Ice Clone:
On jump | FROZEN
On block | sike FROZEN
On whiff | Hold dat while you wait for the clone to run out and pray to the lords that Sub-Zero doesn't begin a 212/214/114 into clone just as the clone runs out
On hit (ground) | FROZEN
On hit (air) | FROZEN
On jump [ex] | FROZEN
On block [ex] | sike FROZEN EVEN LONGER
On whiff [ex] | Hold dat even longer while you wait for the clone to run out
On hit [ex] (ground) | FROZEN EVEN LONGER
On hit [ex] (air) | FROZEN
Ex Ice Clone in general | Sub-Zero just used meter for no reason other than a slightly longer freeze duration. Hold dat
As you can clearly see, Sub-Zero beats Scorpion in the imbalance issues. People have learned to deal with Sub-Zero. Why are you guys letting Scorpion destroy our beautiful Injustice community? #BibleThump
