Totally agreed
Most people don't even know his frame traps because not many main him either. His d3 is good, but I believe he has one of the best d4's in the business. It lowers his hitbox and has ridiculous reach lol. I believe he is definitely tournament viable until you reach a top player that uses Kabal, Kenshi and the likes. Be aggressive!
Told you
Big D has convinced me...I downplay my character too much.Told you
Maaaaan the Baraka community downplays more than the Kitana, Sonya, and Reptile community put together. Enough is enough.
Hey, don't lump me in with these delirious bastards.
thank you sir,
Lol yeah I figured that'd be the first one a lot of people would be like "wtf" on. Basically what it comes down to is Kabal has limited zoning. If they are iagbing incorrectly you can BC them, and even if they dont that's fine you just back them into the corner. Remember I'm adding in the fact that now Baraka has a safe vortex in the corner, so once Kabal is cornered he HAS to advance on you which is where you can attack and backdash BC or AA if he jumps beats out a lot of his options. And if he's touched now he has to guess or break which will leave him without meter. Same goes with A LOT of instant air projectile characters now. They eventually will put them selves in the corner which leaves them highly vulnerable to the vortex. The only exception is Kitana who still has an out with Square Wave. Kabal's pressure is still a problem, but if you can counterpoke well, you can still Spin out of a lot of his stuff with them being afraid to D3 you in between pressure. His F4 is highly full combo punishable if it whiffs. Just gotta keep him from getting in is the key.thank you sir,
ill edit in your new chart to the OP in a few,just running out to get food atm.
good few changes there,leaving baraka with only 1 3-7 mu.sure that will turn a few heads
but what stands out most to me is 4-6 kabal?
i would really like to know your train of thought on that,especially when you compare that number to the other 4-6s.
i cant really see where your c0ming from to be honest,i could see a 4-6 vs a kabal who cant iagb smart (not same pattern over and over) so you can blade charge them or who cant 2~NDC.like even our options for fighting him when were in close are piss poor,d3 doesnt get much vs kabal really,unsafe armor
kabals f4 wrecks baraka in so many situations and if we wana spin we have to catch him again which is full punish when goes wrong
(im not even going to touch liu 5-5 though lol,whatever number is put on that,its adv kang no doubt)
edit:also u have set vs ermac as a 6-4 like tetra said, i flip-flop on the mu alot but always end back at 5-5 lol
he always had a safe vortex in corner before you found the sweep one man,max height f4 reset cant be armored, so you finding that shouldnt have any effect on any MU score imo,its a different way to get the same results bar a few %.
looooooooooooool
Not necessarily because even if you did a max height F4, going for the F2, or mistiming the B3 by even 1 frame meant you can get armored. This shit in 100% inescapable.
Right, and even if they are iagb perfect 100% of the time, you can still dash block your way in so that's just more of an annoyance than anything.
Both Kenshi and Freddy can get 2~NDC'd, yet it has almost nothing to do with the matchups being the way they are. So why is it even an issue in this one? 2~NDC is put up on a pedestal way too often when it's really nothing more than a pressure tool, same as any other string except it gives him more advantage. Solution is simply wait til they use something else or wait til they fuck up simple as that.
It's possible to interrupt F41+2 on whiff with a B3 or D4. Backdashing against Kabal's F4 fucks him up a lot. Eventually he has to resort to using F32 to catch you.
yea of course if you fuck it up it can be armored lol but if you fuck up your vortex,wake up attack and/or putting yourself in corner and kabal iagb his way across the screen
Kabal out zones the shit of Baraka even if you '' just dash block in'' then what?. Your best normal is d4 and that can be easily stuffed by f4 or f23 and even if you do land a d4 Kabal has the option to flash parry. Baraka has no continuous pressure unless you get a lucky jump in punch. Also spin and blade charge full are combo punishable by Kabal unless he does a max range blade charge. No way in hell this match is only SLIGHT advantage to kabal. And i forgot to mention you have no safe way out of Kabal's pressure.
to be fair main,just because ya doing a bit better in a mu doesnt directly translate to the mu numbers.
