Discussion X-ray combos for your character

[MsMiharo]

Well SD doesn't get much off jailing Knee

True and to be fair I think it's fine, I just wanted to join the new trend "shit on Johnny in every thread, no matter the subject"

 

[Wigy]

I have a sneaking suspicion that a list can do f3 rc after an xray when they're in the corner into d1/d3 then full combo. Not managed it yet.

@somebodywithsickexecution do this pls

 

[TheGabStandard]

Piercing Mileena in the corner

F343, B12 (or B21), 4 xx Roll, Jk xx telekick xx Xray - 56%

 

[Alright RyRy]

GGs

Yeah, nerf Sonyas.

 

[IrishMantis]

Yeah, nerf Sonyas.

In fairness though this an extender rather than an instant parry

The red mode was just for show and it be extremely situational to get

On another subject I think overall X-Ray's should be better overall. The only worthwhile ones are jacqui (HT builds so much bar and on block it jails into s1 for more pressure), Sonya's, JC (jails on block, combo on hit, sub (s/o to madzin), CSZ, Goro (jail shenanigans), Kitana. Some like Lao and Dvorah are mostly good because of their meter build. Some are niche but ok like FT and tremor.

Like Kanos is a 21f mid that scales HORRIBLY, doesn't provide a combo and is unsafe. I just want more options across the board. If it was an oh it'd be the Kitana mind game for instance. Maybe they should provide at least one of these things: plus on block, a combo, oh/low for characters that lack one of them, be a parry. I'm not advocating all should be the same but it'd be more fun if they were more viable across the board.

I actually think they did good job in this game around in comparison to others

Viable X-Rays off the top of the head

Johnnys
Mileenas
Kitana
Kotal
Sonya
Triborg
Dvorah
BRC
F/T
Jaqcui

I'm sure there is more

But still even 9 out of 33 is much better than MK9s where like 2 where viable lol

Yeah I agree. I kinda wish most/all were though. X-Rays are hype!

 

[IrishMantis]

Yeah i fully agree

I guess a huge step in improvement does not equal satisfying

 

[Tweedy]

Kung Lao's would be good if it didn't have ridiculous whiffing issues.

 

[MsMiharo]

Hopefully by injustice 2. Real talk Injustice had the better super moves

 

[DDutchguy]

Kung Lao's would be good if it didn't have ridiculous whiffing issues.

I mean it still has ridiculous range and chip so I'd say it's good.

 

[YoloRoll1stHit]

Kung Lao's would be good if it didn't have ridiculous whiffing issues.

It seems to be punishable if people keep duck blocking to make most of the hits whiff

 

[Tweedy]

It's good in the 50% of matches where it doesn't whiff.

I think Sub's and Kung Lao's are good.

Dvorah's also good because it's super fast, you can confirm it from Almost everything she does, you can do it in the air and it is super plus on block I think it even jails into f112.

Pretty sure it doesn't jail but it's good, but mostly because she builds so much meter, not as much because of the move itself (although it is good)

I checked it it's actually -15 I think I thought about an other character maybe f/t's it's +6 at least

 

[ILuvFightGames]

Special Forces: X-Ray~b2~njp~b2~121~bf4 55%

Just a question sonya's X-ray is used only for an AA right?

 

[MsMiharo]

No as a parry

 

[ILuvFightGames]

No as a parry

Oh ok so meaning it only hits if they're actually close and trying to hit you? Sorry I'm new to using her. I use demolotion.

Yeah it's not an attack as most X-rays

Her X-Ray shits on everything. At any moment when you're at ~50% or less hp and she has x-ray available, pray she doesn't use it when you try to do anything or you're dead.

Wait, so it's actually a good X-ray? I immediately thought that it was only AA, then with the explanation I thought well I'll have to time that real good. But now you're saying it deals a lot of damage? Also I just have to watch out for any frame traps right? And does it beat out a lot of opponents moves?

Beats pretty much anything.
