The "noob" character?

[Xiaho]

Noob Saibot isn't noob friendly. He sucks up close and can't do any amazing combos. And I doubt the majority of the casual players have even realised he's a zoner.

Noob friendly would be Ermac. A teleport, good projectile, and easy to land specials. He can also do a lot of damage by doing the most random things.

Sub-Zero? No way!

Maybe for the "noob" characters, we can have a meter below their health bar. This meter will determine how many times a character can use their "cheap" moves (Smoke's Smoke Cloud, Ermac's Force Lift etc.) The meter will recharge over time, and will allow three uses of their cheap moves without having to recharge. Not only will it prevent spamming, it will also add a major learning curve that these
characters sorely need. Players will be forced to economize the usage of thier special moves.

Horrible Idea

Sub Zero
Smoke

Smoke I can see, he can spam a couple good moves (even if that does leave him open to a serious beating), but Sub-Zero? How so?

Most noobs feel he's too slow and then never take the time to learn his moves. They play him for a couple matches, maybe throw out his Ice Ball and Slide a lot, get beaten down (mostly in the facial region) and then blame Sub-Zero for being too slow to spam with or for kamikaze-style senseless rushdown. None of that really screams "noob character" to me...

I'm a smoke player and I agree that alot of noobs use him. I just block on them because all they do is teleport. I love playing sub zero players that think i'm a smoke noob though lol. I love when they slide because it's so easily punishable on block for a 40%+ combo.

I think alot of smoke noobs have a misconception of what his best move. they over use the smoke cloud and teleports.... smoke's best move by FAR is EX shake. (unless you're playing Kung Lao because his spin completely takes away from the wake up game)

im a smoke player and yes, way too many people "noob-ize" him. i got actual combos and good moves as smoke, and i dont spam that 3, 1, 2 combo. i use teleport every now and then, but not to the point of being noobish

as a cyber sub player i dont understand peoples inability to block slide. i can count the number of times on one hand that someone has actually blocked my wakeup slide. i cant remember the last time someone blocked my slide after blocking my 1,2,1+2 string. i get excited when someone does its like...omg...someone with critical thinking skills!

Smoke and Raiden! LOL Seriously. Their teleports are way too fast. Way faster than Scorpion's. Scorpion's most annoying move is hellfire, but hell don't I take that anyday over Raiden spammers.
