So, Kitana have been updated, whoop!
– Increased Rising Fan / Rising Blades damage by 2
– B1 has 9 startup frames (down from 16)
– B1,2 is now +1 on block (down from +2)
– B1,4 is now -4 on block (down from +1)
– Adjusted the hitbox on f1 to connect more consistently
So is this the buff that Kitty desperately needs?
Not really, though the F1 thing really is a minor buff.
Kitana desperately needs a buff. From what I can tell, she can benefit from better overheads and faster attack delivery, she's wwwaaayyyy too slow, making her cannon fodder compared to faster characters like Cassie Cage, Takeda etc.
Hence, despite Kitana being one of my all time favorite characters in the series, I've mained Takahashi Takeda and Liu Kang thus far, those two are Beast Mode in MKX, and I plan on giving Cassie a whirl since she seems like a button-masher's dream.
So for now, until Kitana gets her buff, I've willingly betrayed her
That is a treason!!!! I´ve mained her despite all her gameplay problems!!!
Kitana had her B14 buffed and nerfed >_>
Wins against the AI on hard doesn't mean anything lol.
AI on Hard is better at MKX than most casual players like myself, those were some hairy and close matches.

You guys remember how low Kitana ranked back when MK9 first came out? From what I remember, in May/June 2011 she was in the bottom half of the bracket. Then when 2012 rolled around she was in the Top 10. Moral of story: Those usage stats aren't final, MKX has only been out for a month and a half.
Just wait until Kitana gets those buffs and overheads she has coming to her, then Sonya and Mileena fanboys will eat their words.
U D L and R refer to the D-Pad directions.So I've never understood the numbers and letters people use to describe combos. Does anyone have a reference I could refer to? I tried looking up a picture of a PS4 controller with labels on it but haven't had any luck finding one.
No buffs. Her getting the F2 as an overhead is the only buff I would like to see.
I am guilty of treason. but you have to admit that Kitana's not yet ready for prime time. Not until they fix her...and Flame Fist Liu Kang is hella fun to play with.
Totally Agreed... her gameplay, damage and speed are awfull, But don´t worry, I think they´ll fix her....

Her damage is awful? Are we playing the same game?
