Are you serious?
- Everyday (not only on TYM) people whine about this or that character because whining is easier than practice and learning how to play the game.
Yes, there are characters with better tools but this doesn't mean the game is broken: every fighting game has his "top tier" characters.
I'm sure you watched EVO and noticed that the top 8 players in the MK9 tournament used 8 different characters.
You can't say the same about Tekken 6 (Bob and Law everywhere) or SSFIV AE.
In MK9 80% of the roster is tournament worthy.
- I don't think many fighting games give you the frame data in training mode...correct me if I'm wrong.
- I admit that many guys have problems with negative edge, but I'm not one of them. With a little practice NE isn't a problem.
- LOL correct me if I'm wrong, you use Kitana, Nightwolf and Kano....REO and Mr. Brady think they are not so bad (poor Kano, he is midtier

)
