What's new

Who are you picking up? Who are you dropping? Who's getting more work?

RIP Akira Toriyama
I've honestly used GM from the very beginning up to this day and it finally paid off since this patch really buffed him. Not to say this was a bad character at any point but he was nerfed a few times. Too bad he lost armor on his clone, but the buffs outweigh the nerfs greatly. So, definitely sticking with GM and putting more work into Cryo.

I might drop Kotal cause his b1 being a high really hurt him and makes no damn sense whatsoever.

Dropping: None

Picking Up: I will pick Pyromancer Tanya again, she was unbeatable when she first came out, just abusing f2 into dust into insta back teleport and fireball, then reapeat, till the opponent died LOL. Dropped her after all the nerfing. But she seems more viable now with the new meta. And maybe Unbreakable Sub, he seems fun to play now.

More Work: Assassin Kitana, shes has been my main since day 1, now I got to rework her play style a bit, removing old habits, using more df2 cancels in block strings if meter is available and so on. She seems so good now.

Not dropping anybody. I'll just add them to the characters I play.

I'm picking up:
- Spectral Ermac (Will probably lead to Mystic down the line, as well)
- Cryomancer Sub Zero
- Cyber Sub Zero
- Balanced Kenshi (played him many versions ago, returning to him)

I want to play Gunslinger but I have a stupid attachment to Outlaw so more work lol.
Need to improve my Kitana, right now she's 100% fans and no damage output or conversions.
Need to improve my Necromancer (I only know the specials so far lol)
I feel like Jax is still good so I'll probably put more work in to him.

Painfully Dropping Cassie
Well as much as I can I'll use her for certain mu

Picking up Metalic Tremor
He seems like a lot of fun and I am in desperate need of that.
Also picking up Kitana and Tanya I love female chars.

Working on reactions with all three
If you leave the ground try and AA. back dash njps acknowledge a poke hit and go straight in. get out of my own mind and play more free

So! Of all the characters I chose originally to pick up, Bojutsu was not on my list but I fell in love with this character after patch. He's fun, he's swaggy, he has some great control over areas that I have trouble with when I'm playing LF. Definitely sticking to this one along with LF. I suggest him to anyone who might be looking for something on the simpler side but is willing to get creative with their stuff.

Dude..... hes probably the best character in the game currently. He got to keep his best tools. Mb push is crazy lol and he kept his 50/50's. Push still launches on trade hes dumb good atm. But reffering back to the post im dropping dvora and moving to sektor or predator hqt. Dem buffs for sektor are juicy.

Kitana, Scorpion
I dropped MKX right before XL came out (when SF5 dropped). At the time I was using Aftershock Tremor, Cyber Kano, Cryo Sub and Sun Kotal. I think this is a good time to get back into it.

I'll be dropping Sun Kotal for sure. B1 being a high doesn't sound like any fun.

I'll be picking up Sektor for sure. Maybe the other Cyborgs as well. Cutthroat Kano is a maybe as well.

I'm on the fence about Cryo - I'll need to spend a lot of time with him to decide whether to drop him or keep him.

My mains will definitely be Afershock, Sektor and Cyber Kano.
Maybes are Cutthroat, Cyrax and Cryo.

Certified trash
Dropping:
Erron (Marksman) - the variation is just not fun to use anymore.

Picking up:
Jason - I'm a sucker for some good advancing strings and b122 definitely covers that.
Lao - very solid in all aspects of the game. The character just feels "complete".
Sub-Zero - http://www.soundboard.com/sb/sound/890613

Needs more work:
Erron (Gunslinger) - it's gonna take many more nerfs, for me not to main the cowboy.

So basically my response to this thread has changed immensely

Dropping
Everyone but Leatherface. It's been fun with Jason and Kotal but I've grown distant to them more and more, playing less and less of them. I might go back to them but it's slim.

Picking up
Bojutsu (which I have already successfully picked up as you may or may not know) Buzzsaw and Bartitsu. These three characters are not only White Lotus, but I also really like all of their play styles and Bo's new dashes along with Buzzsaw's new stuff makes me wanting to play em tons.

Characters to work on
My Pretty Lady definitely needs work and my Butcher/Killer can always get better.
