The "12/31/___" date is always the placeholder date when they haven't got an official one. It will most likely be out in April, as that is their pattern. MK9, Injustice:GAU and MKX all had the "12/31/___" release date until there was an official one.
Looks pretty clear to me that she used the telepunch in the neutral. So I'm sure it's just basically like Scorpion's.
Only watched the trailer once but just watched it again. I think you're right. Definitely looks like a special. I thought I remembered her teleporting when that projectile entered her collision region, hence parry, but I see now she teleported before the projectile even reaches her side of the screen.
Hopefully they keep the down to block low in both directions mechanic, it was really cool and assuming its unsafe, wouldnt even make it an issue
Not to mention the possibility of it being a high.
In MKX the characters trash talk all thru the fight, Injustice 2 maybe the same...
That does not look like a parry to me, it looks like a teleport attack.
I feel your pain
Because it was hard to block online.
Because IGAU uses back-to-block instead of a block button. If a teleport switches sides then obviously "back" becomes forward very quickly, making it potentially hard to block a telepunch.
Oh shit haha
Yeah, you don't see a lot of b2b games that have teleports that are also attacks for that reason. Scorpion was a huge problem when he was released for Injustice, before they nerfed him into oblivion. You could hold "down" and it counted as blocking both left and right, but it was a pain in the ass.
sounds legit
this is what i hated, the B2B just got on my nerves, and it was to unnatural to me.
Which is why Injustice had holding only down to low block, and why Scorpion's teleport was a mid.
