Some patch details via NRS stream

LOL at cage not being balanced. Even with the reset if he isnt in your face, he is dead.

dude.. he's a nightmare to play, that reset is insane. he closes the distance so easily too with his shadow kicks, i'm not saying he's unbeatable, but resets are just gay as hell.
 
So are you guys saying Baraka should lose his reset? It cant go both ways right?

And if you say yes, You obviously dont play Baraka lmfao

frame-traps are gay, kabal's is fine now since they give you that split second to break it. however, before it got patched out, cage's and KL (idk if KL still has it), it was lame. you shouldn't be able to do something like that and that's why it gets patched out, i feel the same about cyrax's resets.
 
Ok now I get what your saying, but still thought it wasn;t bad enough with Johnny to nerf it. Oh well.

but see, i've never played a good JC offline, so idk how well that tactic would work offline. i'm just speaking from experience and some guy who mains JC was just using those frame-traps... it was ridiculous, i literally would whoop his ass all round, he'd manage to close me in and trap me. you couldn't move, even with a combo breaker, he'd still be close enough to start the routine up again.

it was so frustrating.

I guess?? frame trap? Leaving the opponent standing gives u the advantage. That all it is. That isn't a frame trap. Quan chi block trap into those enhanced beams is a frame trap. You can block every attack in the string except the unblockable and it'll still do about 55%. That's a frame trap. Jc nut punch. Melinnas leapin neck bite. double netting someone with cyrax also leaves em standing. I never personally done the f3 2 combo. I use the 21 44 combo string most though.

ya, i'm talking about strings, not any specials lol. except for kabal's but his special was used as part of the string, which got patched out... thank god.

all his strings start high if that helps :p
The string u gotta worry about it the 21 cause it'll either put you at blocking high or low. Id much rather take the low cause it'll end the string but u get hi by that overhead and you'll eat some damage. Or get nut punched again and worry about choosing once again lol

Ya, i mean what it comes down to is the online. i'm sure it wouldn't bug me so bad offline because then i wouldn't feel held back by the lag/delay.

thanks for the advice bro
 
One of Johnny's biggest advantages is how much he can get meter on block damage, i'm not saying this is horrible but it is a cripple for people who like his f3, 2 string. Glad they finally toned down the damage on Skarlet's throw, I just wished they fixed Kitana's d1 and Mileena's d4, that stuff's horrible online, and offline it's completely bearable.
 
Jade really needs to respond to my button pressing and needs to be more faster. When I press a button, she is usually delayed.

pokes shouldn't be fixed in this game, i don't think any of them are OP'd or cheap for that matter. especially if you say they're bearable offline. besides, i main kitana and i need a good tool for cheap raiden spammers.... lol
