I can do nothing but agree with Pig. I mean, I love to play Kano but both of his 50/50 options in Cutthroat are completely safe, and I don't think safe 50/50s should be a thing for any character. Sorry, but that shit is broke.
Meanwhile, Balanced Kenshi can't throw his "High Only" projectile from 3/4 screen without getting a full combo punish. It's fucked up.
[edit] I'd love nothing more than to see Pig travel to events, because I think he's great for the scene and I'd personally like to meet him. But I totally understand his reasoning.
"Just pick a different character, lol" is dumb. Character loyalists are a thing.
You know what is funny. I remember during the mk9 days in one of the MU charts threads for either Kenshi or Quan,
@STB Shujinkydink (one of my favorite players in mk9 who stuck with a low tier, absolute ass character that mk9 Quan Chi was, and traveled a lot playing only low tier Quan, got top 8 at Evo 2012 with Quan, and never have been a cry baby about playing a low tier )....
Ok so Dink was told in that thread by
@Pig Of The Hut (who I admire a lot BTW)and this is almost a quote: Kenshi/Quan is a 7:3 MU, counter pick me or die bro!!!
So you think suggesting to play different character is is dumb?!?) well....
Now everything is backwards))))
I can't help but see some poetic justice in this))
