Lol I am literally rolling on the ground laughingMost of these votes are just dumb. Biased by the tym mainstream. See what others have said and jump the bandwaggon. My opinion:
1.) Jax: all these hitbox fixes help him a lot. He has everything now: decent midscreen combos, a great corner game, outstanding mixups, decent zoning and superior footsie tools. I just don't see any character that can beat Jax at this Point. No losing matchup.
2.) Reptile: It will take a while until someone manages to keep the offense going while being invisible (without confusing himself). However you cannot block what you cannot see. Combined with his underrated zoning, Reptile now is top 5 material.
3.) Kung Lao: He was dumb and he still is to some degree.
4.) Takeda: His gameplan never fails --> Press anything, see what happens, continue combo. More stupid after the patch than ever before.
5.) Predator: His high does hurt but it hurts hunter the least (contrary to popular belief), so his best variation is still top 5 (and still dumb).
Overrated: Tanya (teleport is not a great footsie tool anymore), Quan Chi* (his d1 is pointless), Erron Black (Gunslinger has become a decent zoner, but still not top 5 material without an armored combostarter), Cassie* (damage nerfs do matter).

this.Poor Raiden.....
They literally took everything from him and gave nothing in return. Vanilla Raiden: good damage, good pressure, good chip, good 50/50s. After first patch: damage nerf. Second patch: chip nerf. First hotfix: f1 nerf. Latest patch: 50/50 nerf. All the while we still have the same top ten we always had except for Raiden lolPoor Raiden.....
trying to find a new char after all this - not fun :|They literally took everything from him and gave nothing in return. Vanilla Raiden: good damage, good pressure, good chip, good 50/50s.

How is deceptive better than kobu jutsu. Thats crazy talk. How. Explain yourself on at least that onePost-patch...
This game has changed a lot, too much to just accept the tried and true as truth.
It wasn't just slapped together. There was a reasoning behind each chosen variation.
I'm not sure what he is so strong. But you have an interesting TOP 1010) Balanced Kenshi
Goro has U1/U2 at 9 frames now ... +2 on block, amazing recovery, his anti air options are fine plus his d2 has stupid hitboxI think Goro needs:
- AntiAir options
- more speed
- etc...
Kitana needs new Overhead, or her 25 startup down to 17
Something with Balanced Kenshi's special moves have changed. Its much harder to exploit the gaps in his game post-patch.I'm not sure what he is so strong. But you have an interesting TOP 10
yes! 19-21 frames it would be enoughand she needs a fast overhead too?
I'll watch it today when I train ) I like Possessed, i am not use Balanced.Something with Balanced Kenshi's special moves have changed. Its much harder to exploit the gaps in his game post-patch.
I like your post! Then again I got blown up one page ago for also putting Reptile into my top 5 as well. People don't accept opinions that aren't mainstream...Post-patch...

I'm pretty good at blocking, but against Sonya - even the best just gotta guess. Plus, she converts almost everything she lands into 33+% damage.I like your post!

It is just that Reptile's corner carry is great and his cornergame by itself is more than just decent.
What is your reasoning behind Sonya? I don't know a whole lot about her.
I think its just with Balanced.I'll watch it today when I train ) I like Possessed, i am not use Balanced.
