MK9 Match Up Chart (Semi-Tier List)

SHIT TIER:
Baraka ( 112/106.5 )
Kratos ( 107/--- )
Sheeva ( 105/100 )
Quan Chi ( 103.5/98.5 )
Cyber-Sub Zero ( 101/96 )

i don't think this accurate because baraka is way better then that and whose to say these people know how to play him well.

no tier lists are ever going to be 100% accurate on this game untill mk10 because then there will be no new nerff's buff's or dlc's so untill then we can't ever be certain on any tier lists.

but i like how every tier list puts kratos at the bottom i bet they have kno idea how damaging he really is they most likely are bais towards him do to the fact he's banned from tournaments.

Again, the chart and the tier lists are meant to give people an idea of where their character's stand up against others in the grand scheme of things. It doesn't mean it's definitive by any means, but the accuracy of good/bad match ups is fairly accuarate, only because I'm speaking from personal experiences with these match ups.
 
Kl's only bad match up is one of raiden's favourable and vice versa. There's really no need to use anyone else besides those two....:(

I see a ton of other reasons. You still have to take into account the skill of the other player involved and while the match ups may be in favor of the other opponent that doesn't mean its impossible to beat them.

You pick a character because you like them not because of the tier they are in. And even in the chart they match ups weren't completely off the highest I saw was 7 to 3 and that was only a few.

a good match up is not a guaranteed win and more importantly it shouldn't decide who you want to play with.
 
I am not sure if I agree with the top 5, but the bottom 4: Sheeva, Quan Chi, Baraka and Jax sounds about right to me.

I would like to see how the DLC characters would do in this list, even though some need to be nerfed or fixed (most evidently FREDDY).
 
wheres kratos, worse that sheeva if you ask me such a horrible character. All the new dlc are sooo insanely good they compete with any top tier characters no doubt (mostly because their broken i.e. skarlet knive cancels, rain extreme damage and unpunishable geyser kick, and don't get me started with freddy) kenshi not so bad, he is the complete zoning package.
