If my Main gets Nerfed, I'm gonna feel personally violated.

I think Sub-Zero's Tundra Slice (F+4,1+2) should hit low, come on he slices your feet with an ice sword, that should hit low.

The fact that it really looks like it's hitting low does bother me a bit lol, but from a gameplay standpoint he doesn't need much more in the way of tools. He's a fantastic fighter as-is, I love maining him.

Well if Kano's move was changed to hit low, why not SZ's tundra slice? make sense a sword hitting your feet should be blocked low, and is just a combo not a special.

It wasn't changed solely because it looked like it hit low, NRS felt like Kano needed a low hit. Sub-Zero prolly doesn't need a low hit. Changing it may make things slightly more aesthetically pleasing, but gameplay and balance take precedent over aesthetics.

yes... sub zero is very very nasty fighter - i play against my friend and we tag, my kabal/kano vs. his ermac/subzero and it is very very hard to win... !
 
Checked, now his upball does only 11%, when before it was 13%. But it doesn't affect much my favourite combos with him. Most of them are 20%-29% and I'm fine with it, Kano has a lot going on for him in this game, but yeah, it kinda sucks, 'cause his upball is probably my favourite move of his in MK9, very usefull against teleporters, people who jump all the time and obviously for finishing combos.
 
The beauty of this game is that they can patch it whenever they want, and the very fact that they've made this even possible shows that they're committed to making this game as balance as possible. If you're really worried about certain changes, just make them known and if they're actually relevant, you won't be the only person to say anything and NRS should listen.
 
Smokes my main and I got no problem with his otg going bye bye I do however have a problem with the fact that none of his combos or specials can break through a high block noone else has that problem heck even his d1 hits high

this doesnt mean they wont ever change it - they did say nightwolf's toe stomp will never be a low hit - cause that would just be ridiculous... that attack is so fast. remember they can fix things wihtout a patch... there is still a chance they might change it... only time will tell.
 
I'm pissed that Reptile got an unjustly damage nerf, happy that Kano got a buff, & happy that Shang Tsung got a minor buff to his Skulls.
 
Sub-Zero was my main and I enjoyed playing around with Ermac, both of them received nerfs. Ermac probably needed it.
Ermac got nerfed? I didn't see that listed anywhere, and he can still do 45% combos with no meter and 58% with xray. If they did nerf him he needs nerfed again
 
i think most of you want buffing for your own preferences and you want other characters nerfed that you have a hard time with. i can see reptile being nerfed, being a reptile player he is very versatile and is in S tier (according to tom brady) and can combo off of lots of his moves, having 2 forceballs/acid spit/elbowdash is a great move set and he even has more. Kano buffing is understandable, Baraka seems a bit too buffed now. Ermac needs a tad more nerfing on combo scaling. Kung Lao and Cage need to be nerfed, they have alot of specials for alot of different situations which alot of other characters lack in which make those 2 top rank. I am all for what nrs does with these patches, they are making great decisions and as long as the game is still being played, is relevent and the longer it gets played the more and more balanced it will be.
