I don't see any major problem with this. I've NEVER seen anyone pull off a 70% or more combo online. Most people can barely get past 40. I've seen very very very few people that can do the 58% combo. I don't understand the logic behind complaining about something that does a lot of damage and takes skill VS using the many characters that are easy to use to get that amount of damage in a couple strings like Kung Lao.
If you face a good Cyrax player, use Breakers. It's not that hard.

Well the fact that people see that it's even possible makes them want it patched immediately. But whatever. It's probably still getting patched anyway.

Dude....really....no problem? Name another character that does that kind of damage. You lose if Cyrax has 2 bars and you have no breakers. Yes its a problem.

I wouldn't say you lose. It depends on the situation your in, i doubt a skilled player would fall into a %100 combo during the first round... the net is so obvious now. When ever i play cyrax my main thing is building meter so i can stop the 40-50+ Damage from comming <-<

when kung lao combos you... just use breakers... it's that simple.
dude cyrax was already high tier, and his reset combos are not that hard. I learned his combos in like only 40 minutes of practice. and I mean his 70% one. when I played kung lao... I had to spend like 6 hours to do only one of his combos consistently. his 32% one.
OF course this is relative to my experience practicing with both. But I don't see how "cyrax takes SOOO much more skill than kung lao"
It's not like he can just throw out spins.
Cyrax was high tier, and essentially got double buffs (one buff not really a buff but people being forced to find a new way to reset because they lost their old one.) no nerfs.
You've got to be crazy to be THAT biased.
Don't get me wrong I don't think Cyrax is broken. If I base my ENTIRE game around not getting netted. I can do ok... but having to base my entire game like that gives Cyrax SOOO many more options vs me than he should have. Because of the fear of getting netted. But he does not need no freaking 100% damage combo. 53% is enough.

Two notes:
^apparently no one saw this so I quoted it. The word comes from Tom Brady via TYM boards. Should be uploaded soon....Real soon.
Also, no character NEEDS a 100% combo and to argue for it is rediculous. You'd be foolish to think these resets are intended to be there. I dont find Rax to be annoying to fight but anytime someone uses an unbreakable reset I just figure they have no other way to win.
I main Rax but have never used the resets and pride myself in NOT using them. Didnt use the CG, saw or this one. Yes they take skill to do but it's something that take the other player almost completely out the game, and unnecessary for Rax to win. It's not needed and should...WILL be patched.

I still find it more annoying to fight a Raiden, but havent fought one post-patch.

If it took skill then yes, I wouldn't mind. It wouldn't happen against any decent player. People already can't even get more than 40% or so on me without X-Ray with any character, so it's not that big of a deal.
Kung Lao doesn't have majorly damaging combos, you just lose little by little from spamming spins and low hats. You could learn those combos because you are probably a good player. Like I said before, that stuff will almost never happen online and it most definitely won't happen against anyone that's at least decent.

I'm a diehard Cyrax player and he is the only person I focus on playing for real in MK9. I see alot of people complaining so I would like to throw out 2 important facts...
1. To do these combos you need to use an EX bar for every link to even do more then 20% Keep in mind this takes away from defensive breakers, and EVER using his X-ray
2. He doesn't have a single medium or low combo string, so just stand up and block
It's this thing called balance that many people overlook. You're looking at these huge devastating combos like it's an unfair advantage when really if somebody ever gets that sort of combo off you should applaud them like anyone else because the difficulty of each combo increases the higher the %.
As for online, I've played two games...EVER, because the timing of Cyrax's imputs are nearly impossible to do with even the slightest lag.
Just thought I'd give you guys my perspective.

all u need to do is get somebody in the net and they're gonna eat a combo because his teleport is so fast that even when he gets hit he has time to teleport and do a combo.he has 3 moves that hit medium and one of them is a string and i believe he has a kick that hits low so all u have to do is hit them low and link it with a net and u can set yourself for a combo. and this is why u allways see cyrax players jumping to cross u up because they know u whont jump cause his anti air grab beats almost everything.
