You must have not read the part where I put that I wasn't saying that TG was unplayable,I was just pointing out that saying that a character is good because a competitor plays well with the character is a shitty argument. Reo got multiple 9th places at majors with vanilla Slasher Jason but that character was absolute garbage.
True true. Just saying the other guy was acting like Nivek and Digit were the end all be all of Raiden which is just straight up not true.
Do I even need to reply to this? Do you want Kano to have high damage safe 50/50s across all variations? If you do you're a complete idiot.
TG is super underrated imo. Builds meter like a champ, has top tier armor (can even get a combo off it under certain antiair situations) can break most if not all double armor wakeups in the game...
Then I don't understand what you are asking.
TG is solid up close and he's decent from range, but he has nothing outside his neutral game for his opponents to deal with at midrange. Against good players, midrange feels like being in the corner.
it's just a picture of donkey from shrek xD
If tournament results become the standard of tiers, johnny cage downplay squad guna have a field day.
Who was a character that was SO hyped up but now we look back on them and during the patch they got nerfed (any time during the games life) and say to ourselves "okay we might have overreacted." Which was my example with Lao. Pre-XL he was supposedly "top 5" and he didn't have anything dumb about him except the range of his jump 2. Half the damn cast has a stupid ass jump 2 lol. Then. XL came out and he was nerfed for pretty much no reason. At this point in the game there were Straight busted characters (and probably just as many when the XL patch came out in March).
Ok. Before reply with something rude I'll just say lab Cybernetic dawg. Then lab commando. Then touch cutthroat.
I'm aware what the characters can do.
But more mix helped Cryo a ton and totally didn't make the character worse in any way.
But you said Raiden is unplayable. You didn't say Thunder God specifically. Hence my comment, bruh.
I mean that wasnt really the question. Those characters have never been overrated.

People telling they are fine and in no need of buffs, when it was actually the opposite, fits the definition of overrated lol.I mean that wasnt really the question. Those characters have never been overrated.
I disagree that there was nothing dumb about Tempest. Tempest was pretty dumb, IMO. Every patch made the game better, IMO. I don't agree with every change, but with every patch - the game improved. This is just my opinion.
What wasn't dumb about him? His attacks took priority over everything and it was easy to keep him safe. His learning curve made you put some time in to get him down, but once you put the time in - and if you understood how to play him - it was like performing a martial arts form where you were always on the offensive making what your opponent did matter much less. Downplayers make him sound like Erron Black, but anyone that knows can see right through that bullshit. The smartest of us said nothing and just learned him to perform his dance of death flawlessly. Others, could see it - but were too hard-headed to take advantage.
