Thats true but when the absurdity is also incredibly simple with really nothing going on beneath the surface it gets me. Demo Sonya has to constantly manage her nades and when she doesnt have any her combos are non existant and 50-50s are unsafe so Scar has to constantly think about whats worth it, damage now or damage later. With Cassie the thought process is "alright I just landed this invincible restand, should I go overhead or low?" Thats it. If the absurdity is a result of extensive character knowledge and decent execution Im fine with it because thats MKX but if the absurdity is a result of straight up guessing with no consequences I see a difference in it. It was the same shit with batgirl, Im just never going to be impressed by a coinflip scenario when theres no way to lose the coinflip. Seeing shit like Cassie get out of a guarunteed chip scenario that every other character would have had to hold because her 50-50 set up is invincible is just dumb (not that I agree with guarunteed chip but thats a universal mechanic that Cassie ignores). So a scenario where Scar should have had the round win turns into a guessing scenario and the Scar loses just for guessing wrong, its just painful to watch sometimes
Did u know u can detonate grenades when u are in hit or block stun? That's pretty insane.
Oh yeah the grenade trades into full combo were dumb. I think all moves like that need to go from this game (Tremors overhead rock, dvorah swarm, Takeda kunai) I think they can stay on block but on hit that shit needs to dissapear like Predator smart discs do
It was 50+ percent NO BAR COMBO. I hope they don't nerf this. I have always played this variation and the tech to do these combos was recently found. If they nerf this wrong they might destroy this variation.
Just a few months ago you were preaching that there's no way Raiden and Erron aren't top 10, and sure enough, they were slowly ruined by one "quality of life" nerf too many, to the point even when their worst variations were finally buffed, it didn't do anything for them in the scheme of things.
You don't need a bar to do 40+ combos with demo sonya you just need 3 grenades and the corner. You might as well go over 50 if you have the execution.
Is Scar not sponsored by Ultra Arcade? I do agree they all need to be seen at more majors though. Hayatei's Takeda, and Scar's Sonya were a refreshing change.
He did drop a lot of dmg for reloads which was a mistake most of the time, besides his drops and some strange/bad decisions. However, the last thing you said is wrong. Sonya becomes infinitely more dangerous once she has either 1, or no grenades
What makes her more dangerous?
A few months ago = a few balance patches ago when characters were vastly different. The last time I said Raiden was top 10 would have been when F1 was mid which he absolutely was. Now I say Raiden is solid high mid tier and doesnt need buffs (except MoS recovery). Erron I dont even remember that last time I mentioned him so I dont know what youre talking about, he was definitely top 10 early on though. I called Erron the best grappler but thats it.
When's that salt report tho?
He's referring to ex-reload (It drops 1 grenade for every one Sonya doesn't have)
Whatever you're comfortable with, we could do PayPal or like an xbox/psn card or something. Just pm me if you wanna set it up
Tony you are a hell of a nay-sayer lol. I cant tell if youre downplaying or you really think demo is weak without grenades (you could not be more wrong)
That sounds like propaganda.
