MKX Tier List Presented by YOMI (Rv1.0)

Limiting myself to one variation is not the answer. I can use a combo of them and be fine.

Wait you're a Shinnok main, correct? Where's your gratification that our boy finally made it?

LOL. I am not limiting myself. You are. I never said Bone Shaper was overrated. You did.

 

[I GOT HANDS]

is all I gathered from this post.

Lol and how is anything I'm saying here salty, what exactly am I salty about? Meme's and pcitures of salt can't make up for a lack of intelligent response you realise

 

[KIllaByte]

Yeah, Heavy Weapons Jax might be 9. His worst variation at midscreen, with interruptible run cancels.
I wish I were going to EVO to show you people how much better Pumped Up jax is than #9, hell, how much better he is than 9 through 4 spots on this list. Highest practical 1 bar punish damage, highest 1 bar corner damage into a meterless restand that leaves Jax at +4, +8 on block energy wave, + 2 on block 1, 1 and F2 1, a built in option select overhead launcher, and a hitconfirmable low launcher which he can use thanks to energy wave allowing him to get in, and allowing him to keep people out and hurt them, with 10% OTGs off of any energy wave anti-air, thanks to the full screen unblockable groundpounds.
After people respect Jax's pressure so much, you can actually just groundppund them, it's hilarious.
Dvorah is heavily injured by the patch, and just take the hit of 2 in F112 and everybody lives.

Can't even spell anymore.. relax, take a breath... it'll be okay man.

Oh my goodness, not a typo! Dear god, I must be at the brink of a complete meltdown!

You look silly. Please do carry on.

Agreed, people are sleeping big time on Jax, although i believe his Wrestler variation is the best. Too many tick throws, combined with safe gotcha grabs and overhead combo starters. That variation seriously has it all.

 

[ForeverKing]

I agree with you, that he loses against Quan, KL and Tanya for sure.

KK does not beat him for sure.

KJ is debatable, i still need to play more matches at my local scene, but i ve been doing well against him. You just need to be patient.

Jason is a winnable MU. @Hidan plays a fucking seriously scary Relentless and Slasher Jason. Both characters have equal chance of winning.

Kitana, tbh with you, i have no idea, but i get a feeling that she ll probably fan the hell out of him. I ll take your word for that MU, since i havent played any high lvl Kitana players.


I would like, if you can, to record some matches next time you use him at Yomi and send me the link, so i can see how they deal with him. I believe you are using KW yes?

Yeah I use KW. I'm gonna have to record some long sets and show you them. If you can zone Goro out it's definitely or bad. Or if you're a character that gets free mixups of jump ins its pretty bad. Once Goro can anti air well I'll use him in tournaments

 

[Immortal]

Can't even spell anymore.. relax, take a breath... it'll be okay man.

Don't even bother talking to him, it's pointless. He's completely clueless, just ignore him like most people here.

You whined and whined and were given a top 10 character hands down, arguably top 5.

 

[big j gleez]

We all know who the top viable characters are. To argue over minute details of a few placement spots is pointless. This game is very heavily predicated on match ups and also execution. If you can't execute, a tier list don't mean a damn thing lol

 

[I GOT HANDS]

It's funny how you think you undeniably know better than me, the entirety of Yomi, and everyone else in this thread who is agreeing on it. You on the other hand, are just agreeing with a guy who's only argument so far is pointing out a spelling mistake.


It's also funny how you are so salty about this thread that you carry it over to people's status's and start whining about everyone up-playing Kenshi, on completely unrelated statements.



The funniest thing to me however, is the how people with the weakest arguments seem to rely the most heavily on insults and obnoxious images

You're done bro. Get out of this thread before you end up lookin even worse.

 

[big j gleez]

The real question is how many times is Tanya in the top 5.

3... the answer is 3 lol

 

[Peckapowa]

Even with the buffs kenshi doesn't strike me as elite, but i havent played in a about a month or so, i havent been keeping up, thinking about getting back on the wagon. So take that for a grain of salt. I always thought kung lao was very solid and allows a fundamentally strong player to win, but not like a stupid retarded top tier character like an NRS game. The dlc will change things.

I also think Erron Black Marksman is being overlooked because reo and sonic use outlaw, if the game slows down he could control the pace and have great mixups and be safer. Thought he loses armored sandcrap. He's a bit higher ceiling imo.

Also it's clear to me that quick mid-hitting normals (good counter-pokes) will begin to gain more prevalence because the pressure game and i notice liu kang has some very strong ones, i think im going to purchase a router and get flame-fist going but i read its still kinda unsafe. This game could put a heavy emphasis on normals at close range and chars with dominant ones might get an edge. we shall see. Spacing becomes more important as people get better.

[C88 Zombieekiler]

Personally i'd put liu way higher. If somebody like curbo puts time into flame fist he could be fucking scary.
60% meterless combos in the corner which with decent execution could pretty much be considered BNB's

Crazy chip, safe on everything, one of the best zoners in the game, probably highest damage combos, completely stuffs just about any wakeup in the game.

Time will tell, there is ways around his stuff but i think he'll be top 10 in the right hands.

xarakamaka is on that dw

 

[DarksydeDash]

Kenshi as six!? Maybe in the future.

 

[Yoaks]

Seriously. Kenshi isn't #6. Maybe #10. #15 is the lowest I'll go.

Kenshi is good. But not "that" good.

 

[The ice hammer]

I disagree with raided being top 3.....the patches hurt him bad ...


And yes I want my 6f mid back, please

 

[Shark Tank]

I would actually like to see explanation for Kenshi #6, mainly which variation is number 6 because if I'm guessing it'a kejustu because 50/50.

 

[C88 Zombieekiler]

Jhonny(A-List) is easily in the top 10 tier list

no

And like dozen other people who agreed with me here on Kenshi placement.

While with you about Kenshi here agrees so many people... exactly that much:

 

[DarksydeDash]

Until he frequently wins locals or majors and makes top 8 then I'll believe it.

 

[C88 Zombieekiler]

Shinnok bone shaper is top 10, not just shinnok, imo. I like this list, scorpion got hit har with dat nerf bat.

wat

 

[Hitoshura]

MKX has 3 variations for each character. So, technically speaking we have 90 characters in this game right now. How is there a tier list without including every variation for each character? If you can't do that then this game hasn't been fleshed out enough to make a tier list.

I'm not calling out whoever made this tier list. I'm generally asking the creator(s) of this list a question.

I'll semi-agree with This and ask any tier list made with taking the max favored variation to at least be labeled which ones are given the spot. Some I can guess but others with multiple viable variations it's unclear.

Or in the case of goro, which of the multiple shitter variations is least stinky.
