What's new

Trolled ranked today with Kratos

I think he's going to be my new main :) its so fun wrecking scrubs with him, and challenging when you actually face someone good. I just can't make up my mind, was random selecting for awhile. Looks like Kratos is it for now. I have a 48% meterless mid screen bnb, and his dash cancel is total bs. Still need to pick up my execution on pad though. Throw in his ghetto resets that people can't catch onto because they don't know the matchup, and people are raging. It's hilarious.

(this may need moved to the Kratos forum, even though I was trolling vita ranked)

I played you LOL. I think just barely beat you iirc (I think I used smoke), i remember you were using that dark kratos costume. I recognized your psn name from the forums. Good game man!

Yeah gg, I remember that one. Once my execution gets better on the dash cancels ill put up more of a fight. When people were rage quitting I was taking a screenshot and messaging it to them, saying "You have just felt the wrath of the gods" attaching pics to messages on vita is awesome!

Some people do not know how to get your recently played list on vita. You open friends, click on yourself, and click on play history. You can message directly from there, and you can keep friends and messaging open while you play mk. It's amazing when they rq and get the message like 10 seconds later...

So many rage quitters on vita ranked matches... LOL. I didn't even know kratos dash was cancellable, is it back and block to cancel it like kabals ndc?

It's easier than that. You hit bf4 and hold 4, and dash forward or back out of it. If you do the enhanced, it keeps the armor like a rain rh cancel. You bait wakups with ex dash cancel, eat the wake up with armor and punish for 41-48%. It's bs. And I love it! If you do a couple in a row it glitches and his feet stay on fire too as he's moving around.

JIP,f42,dash 3~Helios head,JIP,f42(hold 2),4 = 48% no meter mid screen.

Lol he sounds pretty broken!
 
Who needs combos if you can just 21 HDC 21 HDC 21 HDC 21 HDC infinite.

And a broken ass parry.
Didn't think that was an infinite, both hits from 21 are high and I don't think it jails standing after the 2. There is a 3 bar block string with ex bow, but there are a few of those around for a couple of characters... But maybe I'm wrong. I have no way to truly test it on vita. If people know how to deal with the parry you can get jacked up pretty quick, but if they don't you can combo a parried projectile into bow and Hermes dash for a 24% combo from full screen and be right in their face for pressure, which is pretty cool.
 

Gesture Required Ahead

Get on that hook

It's an infinite not a block infinite.
 
It can be parried by Kratos. Won't work in this match.
This is correct. Low pokes beat the Kratos parry, but standing attacks that hit low get parried. I'm actually considering a full Brady-like Kratos guide, to share all the things ive found since I started fully exploring him. He has some stuff that is complete bs, and ghetto resets where you can reset the combo counter, your opponent can block but normally does not think they can. If I hit the ghetto reset, I have a 102% corner combo using 3 bars, and can get into the 70's and 80's mid screen with no meter, depending on the start. It has a lot to do with the seemingly random stun times of the helios head, which I am starting to figure out may not be so random after all... :)
