Deathstroke's up close game is very solid for a zoning character. Much better than Freddy's and still a little better than Kenshi's.
What happened?
Josh 360 happened. Jesus Christ deathstroke
depends on if the person you're asking plays offline/onlineAre we still saying DS isn't that good, just duck and walk? It's easy to beat him, since he has no options up close, just block everything he has, take hardly any chip, walk in and destroy him? Eh?
Also is Doomsday still that not great of a character, just punish the Supernova and pushblock him and you win? ^^
Just a minute, let me go get my glasses so I can read this tier list.
It was offline players that told me that DS isn't that big of a deal, just duck and walk
I think there were even some videos. It's supposed to be a piece of cake. Even for Lex Luthor.I was joking, I don't think anyone with a brain ever denied DS was good, just not the OMG TIER everybody was claiming day one.It was top offline players that told me that DS isn't that big of a deal, just walk and block
I remember these videos specifically prefacing themselves with "Deathstroke is a top ten character", so no, I don't think anyone ever said a good Deathstroke is a piece of cake.It was top offline players that told me that DS isn't that big of a deal, just duck and walk
I honestly wouldn't classify his damage output as low. He does fine meterless damage and can save most of his meter for his zoning tools which is pretty good by design.
This is true, I wouldn't use my meter up close unless I wanted to combo into super to finish my opponent off.
Yeah, or use a MB f3 or something to people that are looking the b1.
Off a ji2 though, not exactly DS's best normal compared to the much superior ji3.
HE NEEDS IT
Because everything in the universe keeps this character out, and characters whose offensive options are supposed to be backdashed but can't be by him give him problems.
Deathstroke is a character without a specific place on a tier-list.
At least there is none as braindead as Kenshi in mk9, even deathstroke is not as braindead, even tho he does need nefts.
I know the matchup, its the only match I'm focusing, and I know he's beatable, I was kidding, but he's more than A+ for sure, I can't beat him and I practice with my friend, who plays him, almost everyday, I play Harley by the way, maybe that's the problem, but another problem is his d1, which is -2 on block and has a super range, I think it's the best poke in the game, and his trait is top 5 for sure, combined with his overhead-low, which is pretty difficult to block, and almost impossible to punish (cause of the push-back) and his MB dash which ensures a free d1, or a grab if I'm expecting the d1. I'm sorry, but I think u never fought against a good Doomsday, he's S for sure...Eshi said:
Guess you havent seen pig or nyc fabs lex luthor? Plus shazam can give doomsday a run for his money granted that he doesnt get cornered.. Doomsday himself isnt that huge of a threat when you punish correctly and push block correctly..
