Cage reptile is at least 4-6 because of the dash/armour/superior zoning. The Cage player is forced to think harder than the reptile player to keep him locked down. 1 mess up, get elbow dashed back to forceball range.
You are just ranting again. You have said absolutely nothing of value. I will tell you why REO, Tom, and I ranked Skarlet very low.Ninj said:Yes, her X-Ray is a move, and it has times where it's useful, and last I checked X-Rays were used even in tournament level play. Did I say it was her best tool? Nope. You might say her 40+% meterless midscreens are her best tool. You might say her super armor EX Red Slide is her best tool. She has a lot of tools at her disposal. You can't point at one specifically and say "this is their best tool" with any character, because any one move can be countered by something else (except EX Red Slide, which goes through a majority of other characters specials...ok maybe that's her best tool)
I'm working on compiling videos that will show her strengths, as well as explanations for which specials and normals are strong and how to use them properly. It takes time, and I apologize because I have a life to see to as well.
It bothers me that you have this high-and-mighty attitude toward a character that you clearly have no post-patch high level play experience against. You don't main Skarlet. Nor does Tom Brady, nor Reo. Stop and think for a second - Nightwolf is a bad matchup for Skarlet? Please explain. You're the one presenting your tier list to the masses, and so far you've been presenting the "she used to be better!!" argument. I'm the one who gets to ask you to explain yourself.
And stop using her dagger nerf as your sole reason as to why she is the worst character in the game - my personal opinion is you loved the prepatch dagger cancel because you could use a hitbox and lock any character down and you felt really good about that. Then NRS fixed that, and since you hadn't actually learned Skarlet, you dropped her and say that she sucks.
And for the record, a tier list made by 3 people is complete nonsense anyways. This is made up of personal experience. Of 3 people. What do you want me to do with this tier list? Is this meant to be the end all be all of MK9? Should we take this list to mean Sub Zero loses to Skarlet? Kabal never loses to anybody? From what I've seen from tournament replays, Jax owns Kabal. What does "bad matchup" mean?
Finally someone said something! I was just about to mention that lol. GG's on Sunday btw.
I don't hold many hopes of having the dash back, but you are completely right, it would change this list a lot.
Umm... Have you seen how far the push back is on skarlets daggers? They are also very hard to jump over when you read your opponent.
A max damage combo is not always a BnB combo. What can Scarlet do after the non-hit confirmable u3 is blocked, compared to she can do with the safer f312?
I'm pretty sure it's more than that. Especially midscreen, where she can combo off of it.
In response to your last paragraph. A tier list made up of ALOT of people on the other hand is a complete and utter mess. There is nothing wrong with disagreeing about tier lists placement, but when you disagree it helps if you have something logical to disagree about. I'm happy it was only 3 people who created the tier list, there's less nonsense to sift through, especially when those 3 have proven time and time again that they generally know what they're talking about.Yes, her X-Ray is a move, and it has times where it's useful, and last I checked X-Rays were used even in tournament level play.

Did you read the post?
So? 2% damage. Whoopie. Unless you magically do this 50 times, I don't see why anyone mention her daggers being hard to jump over as scary.
SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS!
Says the guy who can play with tournament-level players all the time, has the disposable income to blow on travel to a game tournament as well as the time available to do so. That sounds like a lot of my time and money to try to change some very determined minds away from their notion that Skarlet sucks.
It's like making a tier list where Kabal has no bad matchups, and then Reo's Kabal gets wrecked by CD jr's Jax.
Someone putting REO in Check. Now that is something to watch folks, and I thought him getting blown up by CDJr was rich. I feel the same about Sindel too my friend. I'm trying to wonder how she still sucks even after the patch. they said the patch save her. Sindel is at least C or B tier at best. She ain't not funking F tier.
