General/Other - Mournful Why Mournful is Potentially Kitty's Best Variant.

[VAAAAAAAAN]

She gets about 44 in the corner off b14. B14 ex glavie jump over 1 f43 3 glavie b14 lift jump forward 4 float njp d2 d1 pole slam. The timing on some of it is tricky but it's very do able. If the ender is too hard you can always just go into f33 or 111 throat slice after the njp I think that's like 42 not sure.

Jik float njp f33 throat slice works as an ender as well

Yea I forgot to mention it originally.

Her shadowkick now -6 on block.

 

[MsMiharo]

Her shadowkick now -6 on block.

WHAT? THIS IS AMAZING

EDIT: still gets blown up by reptile so I'm guessing it isn't -6

Well reptiles slide is 6f and it can punish 6f moves.

But I'll check.

 

[SM StarGazer]

-6. STAHP IT! Tell me Staff Grab is -7 and shes golden.

 

[Laos_boy]

Yep Shadow kick is -6 now and Staff grab is still -12

 

[SM StarGazer]

Yep Shadow kick is -6 now and Staff grab is still -12

So I can just d1..shadow kick..d1 shadow..d1..shadow kick on unsuspecting scrubs. Hahaa. Now make Ecplise Kick a mid and were golden.

Her shadowkick now -6 on block.

was this a stealth buff / bug??? It is not in the notes

 

[STRYKIE]

Yeah only reptile's EX Slide can punish the shadow kick on block now. They probably did that just to annoy 16 Bit.

 

[YoloRoll1stHit]

lol d1 glaive is already annoying now we got d1 shadow kick

 

[vcuzzo23]

Thinking about digging into this variant. I love throwing fans but those glaives are pretty fast

 

[Crimea]

They nerfed Mournful damage too?

 

[MsMiharo]

They nerfed Mournful damage too?

No

 

[VAAAAAAAAN]

They nerfed Mournful damage too?

Yea. I think only by 1% though. Mid screen bnb does 38 now instead of 39 I haven't checked my corner damage yet but it seems nearly the same. The lift scaling happens pretty late in my combos so it doesn't effect me as much.

 

[RevetLeafing]

Shadow kick isn't safe.

He/She said partially safe

 

[RevetLeafing]

I personally main mournful and I think it's her best variation too

Yes it is her best. She can get a max of 50% Damage in this variation

 

[xKhaoTik]

He/She said partially safe

And so? It was still unsafe


And the 50% in mournful is so not worth it. You need 3 bars. You can get that with a bar in assassin. Save your 4 bars for xray

 

[RevetLeafing]

Still has more mixup than Mournful

So what's the 50/50 in mournful mentioned in the OP?

After the mileena disaster in the last patch I've picked mournful up knowing nothing about it. Really fun though.

JIP ex air glaive/b3

 

[Sweet Cheese]

Thought so

Thanks!

i'm trying to incorporate her 50/50 in my game and i have a few questions:

1. how safe is her jip xx ex glaive on block?

2. is the 50/50 hard to react to and block?

the overhead ex glave comes out fairly slow at 25 frames and the low comes out in 15 frames. factoring landing time if you decide to go for a low, how hard is it for the opponent to react to overall?
