No. Just No. MK vs KI would grab some serious attention though. And apart from that, what would an MKvsWB even entail? Jason and Freddy are borderline doable, but what else does WB have? Harry Potter characters? Looney Toons? The cast of Police Academy against the Dukes of Hazard? The Olsen...

Top tier definately. Overpowered, not really. But online, due to lag, they have certain moves that could be interpreted as being overpowered I suppose. Raiden's teleport is amazing offline. Online it's borderline unfair, but that's mainly due to the crappy netcode, not necessarily because of...

Although I'd personally prefer no guest characters, it doesn't really impact my enjoyment of the game if they add them. And admittedly, a pairing of Freddy and Jason seems borderline aceptable. But Ash? Yes please. I don't care if he fits or not, he's simply to cool to even object against him...

Re: Freddy Krugar thoughts? I'm not impressed by his moveset. Looks rather bland and uncreative, considering what they could've done with him. Swinging two clawed hands around? Really? Meh. They could've put a Wolverine outfit on him and I wouldn't see any difference. What bothers me more is...

Re: The F*ck Freddy Boycott. Personally, I find this rather disappointing. I wouldn't go so far as to boycot, depending on the alts provided with the pack, I'll likely download the compatibility thing. Honestly though, looking at his moveset, xray and fatalities, I'm definately not impressed...

I don't mind seeing the fatalities over and over really. I don't love it either, just impartial to it. Myself however, considering I mainly play Kano and Quan Chi, prefer their victory poses. With Kano, an EX choke will result in him spitting in my opponents face during his victory pose. I...

My problem is not getting the EX version. Your trick works great for that BoX. It's getting out the AirBall period. Sometimes it will trigger, sometimes I just land and immediately do a back jump out of nowhere. Sometimes it just doesn't trigger at all. I know it's my own fault for messing up...

You're right. Logically it would make sense and seems very doable considering Rain's fatality. However, judging by previous DLC releases, I sincerely doubt it. I have a strong feeling after the 4th DLC, they will announce a "fatality pack" DLC

True, the recovery on his B1 is quick enough you can use it as a simple poke and follow up with a grab. The advantage is that people will tend to block since it looks like you're starting a combo. I've found if you keep up the pressure with RPS (rock paper scissor) there is seldom need to...

Wow, very impressive write up, Karaokelover. I play exactly the same way with Kano, and I have to agree on everything you said. His offensive wake up game is brutally effective against most match ups, and against the others you can simply play defensively and zone them. Only difference is I...

Crouch. If he teleports and grabs it'll whiff and you can uppercut or combo him. If he tosses out a superman, try to tap your block fast enough and punish. This is of course provided teleporting and grab/superman is all he does. If he spams the easy overhead combo too, be careful with the...

Re: Kano thread-"One dead Lin Kuei, in a tick!" I suggest, instead of using 33 upball, try using B12 upball. I find it easier to do with less chance to whiff.

Tricks and mind games... hmmm Dunno if these qualify, but I tend to use this : Bait a projectile war then use Ex upball. Dash in and use F33, dash in and use grab. Tends to mess with people's blocking. Or dash in and use B1 but instead of starting the regular combo string, switch to a grab...

Awesome comeback. Made me lol (no disrespect to anyone with a disability. But sending that after beating someone is just funny as hell.) Personally, I tend to just go with "lol" or "I should've done a Babality."

Re: Kenshi Trailer He looks awesome. A bit too awesome actually. I have a feeling I'll be playing against him constantly online. And his specials seem very powerful and fast. Reminds me of Ermac on speed. Let's hope they didn't make him too OP, but we'll find out soon enough I suppose (July...
