Are you clueless at creating and doing combos?
Are you useless defending against opponents?
Do you want not to care that there's someone else in the game trying to play?
Do you want to put the minimal effort spamming 2 moves and lie to yourself you're actually thinking when to press them so you don't feel braindead?
Then zoning is for you!
Pick a broken character and just spam the same move over and over.
Ignore anything and anyone that is in the game with you, let them sort it out.
Just walkback all day and enjoy the show.
Make sure to post on the forums that it's a legit strategy so you can sleep at night while you try to remember if your opponent was an AI, a human, or even in the game at all.

This was the post that made me join the forums. Going from lurker to posting.
This is the best thing I've ever seen. I'm sorry, but anyone saying "why do people hate zoning" must have not played recent NRS games or just happily ignored some of the annoying examples of zoning in their games as of late.
You can all argue that Jacqui wasn't that bad, sure. It was definitely managable. Or Triborg was "easy" enough. At the end of the day, it's not about the ease. It's the fact that these characters made zoning look so just... stupid, tedious, and not fun to play against or watch.
I'm not even getting into the zoning hell hole that is Injustice 2.
I think the problem is: NRS hasn't handled zoning well as of lately. A lot of fighting games have problems handling it well because it gets dumbed down and tedious to deal with. This thread encouraging it all of things is beyond annoying. You can always use the counter argument "well sheesh just go play tekken -already do tho- if you hate zoning so much" but it just feels a bit sad to me that zoning has become so god damn cheap and trashy in NRS games.
You can all do what you want but this post is the most breath of fresh air truth I've seen.
