As people mentioned that's probably universal armor fixes across the cast

 

[Bruno-NeoSpace]

Maybe armors will work only on WAKEUP and REVERSAL. If that happens... FINALLY!!

 

[Gofer_MK]

The real question here is will anybody beat Sonicfox after this patch on a consistent basis?

We'll see in the after-patch tourneys. We'll see how they fare against his mains.

Dem day -5 nerf to the ground declarations. We are on track for a complete dumpster fire of a patch thread. Let Mortal Kombat begin!

It's similar to UBSZ's, Kenshi's, Ronin Takeda's and Kotal Khan's parries.

Everyone is clearly waiting for hat trick

it's more like high tech jacqui's without being able to reflect projectiles at all.


meh

I'll wait till the KK, but it feels like Bo is getting ways to deal with zoning and keep out.

If he can get to you easier, he's gonna mix better than a bartender at a cocktail party.

I'm confused about the kitana gif and buff. After the rising fans she does the float then punches, I thought I have seen that before? What am I missing?

she has the jump in 2 after it just like imposter can jump in 2 after a teleport and jail also it looks like now she has an ex float

From my understanding, ex armored launchers are likely going away across the board.

What Kitana is doing is her rising fans, which are then cancelled into an ex IAF, into JI2 b14 b2. It all jails and makes her safe.

She does a jump in punch after float and continues pressure

 

[myri]

Looks similar to how Sektor can do ex air charge from a blocked teleport.

Also I hope they don't get rid of ALL armoured launchers, some characters really need them like Lao with his spin.

If they are taking armored launchers awey except for wakeup,they should buff starting frames on teleport to deal with gaps
Edit
It is a launching armor...maybe he has been given non- launching armor?

Me too but no armour im worried.

Even if that's the case I hope normal spin has anti air properties

Errrr yeah i guess. Lao is not lao unless he has armour.

Buzzsaw would be crap if he had no armour.

[evolution07]

I'm not gonna lie, but all these changes so far have me concerned for what's to come. It seems like everyone is getting a complete overhaul.

 

[SonicNinja3532]

I wasn't speaking to you as a child I was speaking to you as someone who'd seen a 2 second gif which HINTED at something but did not really show ANYTHING and just decided that "so much for balance patch gg nrs".

Wait to see how it all shakes out before passing judgement based on almost zero information that's all, this community has a bad habit of doing that and it's time to stop.

Maybe i jumped the gun a bit, but I'm not usually like that. But like a lot of other people, its just hard to trust nrs and seeing stuff like this is slightly concerning.

However, if they're removing armour on launchers then that is pretty big, so i certainly applaud them, and maybe this really is the fabled patch people have been searching for, but like said, I'll reserve judgement.

 

[SonicNinja3532]

with a cmd grab Cyo would still just be Wrestler Jax with less mix-ups, worse poke game for tick throws, worse pressure, and less damage

but at least he'd have that super OP slide rite

Never did i imply slide was op or anything like that, but you do make a fair point about cryo. Again we'll see where this goes.
