Match-up Discussion The New Kenshi MU Chart - Prepare for Debate

[Pig Of The Hut]

Kenshi 7-3 vs Sonya

sorry its 6-4 at highest level

 

[Death]

sorry its 6-4 at highest level

Oh okay.

 

[AYSAMO]

kung lao with tight execution is needed to beat a kenshi with tight execution, plain and simple.

i think kratos can zone kenshi at full screen...

Kratos can't parry kenshi's specials, and his strings and pokes are all more or less worthless. 10-0 kenshi lol.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Oh okay.

If you doubt it then pick up easy mode kenshi and play blake best of out 10

good luck

Ok guys i went in to edit and give you guys the credit for the doubt i was having and change it to 8-2
then i noticed that he'd be 8-2 on same lines w cage, kit and said NO
Theres no way a top tier baraka player is on same par and level in difficulty as a top tier kit and cage
Something has to give here
thoughts?

well i dont main kit or cage so i dont think it be fair i comment of there MUs with kenshi.
but imo its not really the thing of well cage and kit are this so hence baraka must be worse, all 3 chars have different tools and baraka's placement in any tier list or any of his other MU numbers shouldnt really play into how it goes with kenshi.
like even Under_The_Mayo has given enough points to show its not 9-1 and hes a kenshi player not a baraka, although ex blade is 13% not 10%.
imo not enough tools of baraka are shutdown to a 9-1 level

as i said eariler at this moment in time i feel its floating between 3-7/2.5-7.5 so 8-2 wouldnt be a long ways off that but as i also said eariler i feel the kabal mu is harder for baraka than the kenshi one so maybe thats a 9-1 but i dont feel kenshi is at all

 

[LEGEND]

there are no 9-1s in this game and Kit n Cage are 7-3

Pigs kenshi is just on another level compared to his competition

that reaction time.

i gotta get some experience vs a good kenshi

 

[GhosT]

Pig I think cyrax and xyblax are both 5 5

I have pretty good experience against both .kenshi can stay away pretty easy and patience is a must. Cyrax can teleport on a read and punish wiffs while kenshi can combo punish on reaction. Cyblax can do the same but kenshi can still get block string pressure on cyblax teles. I vote 5 5 but can back it up with video evidence. Also I need insight on mileena mu. For a 7 3 that mu troubles me. I normally counter that with Sonya. Advice?

As a scrub with no match-up experience, why is the Kung Lao match-up so bad? Like what specifically does Kenshi have the most trouble against when facing Lao? Pig Of The Hut

21 beats all frame traps (1 frame faster, leads to 40%)

teleport in general is huge kenshi has to make a read/guess for int 3, delayed 3, 2, 1, ex tele options as well as when he does it. Each option has a different optimal way to deal w it and you have .5 sec to make that decision and theres no reason for him to ever stop doing it so you repeat this 1/6 guessing game for every round

You cant ex tele half of the teleports and you cant d3 his teleports because its random and when he delays or instant 3 changes your evade

The best way to describe this mu is pick kenshi play pl

pffft, please play Sub Zero vs Pig's Kenshi or any competent kenshi and let me know how many games you win. I bet it won't be 3.
