Discussion Which characters have the best corner game?

[Daemantalo]

33% off of an EX buff combo? HAH.

33% Is without EX Buff, 40% is with it. If you've got a 50% EX Buff 1 bar combo I don't know about please share

It better be a lie.

After properly exploring post-patch Summoner, I'm 100% convinced he has the best corner game in the game, probably along with Bo and Sub. I think his could be better though.

Loopable hard to blockables, loopable meterless vortex with plus on block 50/50s (meterless), amazing damage with meter from 50/50s and HTBs, can armor break every armor in the game with bat, if you can break their armor with F21 you'll be in for a very fun time.

The main thing is though you can do his most dirty stuff to every character in the game. It doesn't matter who you are, you still have to guess at least twice at the end of every combo to escape if I have bar, which I probably will. And if you guess wrong twice you're dead.

Due the game's mechanics a lot of the cast have a really strong corner game. It's hard to chose the 3 that give me the most intense nightmares.

I'm surprised at the lack of mileena votes, and why isn't any other Bo variation available?

 

[Pan1cMode]

High tech Jacqui needs to be on this list. As someone who plays both special forces Sonya and High Tech Jacqui, Jacqui is definitely the bigger threat in the corner.

My list would be:

Shotgun/High Tech Jacqui
Swarm Queen D'Vorah
Stunt Double Johnny Cage

Acidic cause crazy chip damage that stacks up over time to go with good 50/50's
Demolition fully loaded and ur done son
Grandmaster cause ice klone but disjointed hurtboxes ignore that shit so I might have to say CT Kano instead cause if he has bar he can keep u guessing and applying pressure and db1 to keep himself safe and can spend a bar for power up which keeps him at plus frames and if u guess wrong ur losing at least 30% of your healthbar if not more

B12 EX buff, b312, b312, d3, 112 kano ball.
Also gets 50% off low starter if you instant air j1 after the ex buff

 

[Wigy]

I made a list a while back of top corner games IMO.

Acidic Alien
Hunter/Hish Qu Ten Predator
Wrestler Jax
Cutthroat Kano
A-List/Stunt Double Johnny Cage
Unstoppable/Slasher Jason
Demolition Sonya
Grandmaster Sub Zero
Ruthless Ferra/Torr
Swarm Queen/Brood Mother D'vorah
Spec Ops Cassie Cage
Shotgun Jacqui
Thunder God Raiden
Sorcerer/Summoner Quan Chi
Dragon Fangs Goro
Crystalline Tremor
Dragon Breath Bo Rai Cho

I think if unstoppable's command grabs all kept you in the corner instead of throwing you out, he'd have the best corner game in mkx.

Ex grab keeps them in tbf.

 

[tafka Djinn]

I have to say that I feel like anybody with a throw combo starter is pretty damned dirty in the corner. Hunter Predator, and GM Subzy can loop you into their bad situation, so I feel they're the worst offenders, with either Acidic or Summoner closely behind.

 

[Daemantalo]

B12 EX buff, b312, b312, d3, 112 kano ball.

Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. The double B312 is hard as hell to do though, but I didn't know you can fit a D3 before the 112xxKano Ball. Good to know. Will try later.

 

[OfficialYungmonster]

None of the above, high Tech Jacqui.

 

[BigBlade]

Acidic is dangerous

Grand Master is sick

Demolition is outrageously ridiculous

 

[RabidMonkey]

Grandmaster,demolition,wrestler,dragon breath..

 

[ArmedCalf]

Grandmaster, Acidic an Cutthroat with Slasher as a dark horse in the corner game section

 

[x TeeJay o]

None of the above, high Tech Jacqui.

 

[PND_Ketchup]

Demo and Cutthroat do not have better corner games than DB Bo Rai Cho IMO.

BRC still sucks ass though

 

[nathancorsini]

Kitana does.

 

[Osagri]

U did out tempest in there. That is mean man

 

[TyCarter35]

Demo and Cutthroat do not have better corner games than DB Bo Rai Cho IMO.

How so? I know DB BRC has a good corner game but what would make it better than Demo Sonya and CT Kano besides the flame puddle or whatever u want to call it stacking up dmg like the Caltrops or acid puddle?

And yeah BRC has too many serious flaws that NRS needs to address. His mobility could use a boost
