AUGMENTED
I've never stopped playing this game. Continued to keep breaking down this character and Commando is currently an official grappler in the MKX Enhanced Online Beta as of now... Is he broken? In my opinion since playing the character from day one, No. Everything seen in these videos involve his new pressure game. Techs from B1 are avoidable by back-dashes, jump outs and can be armored through or completely stopped by low profiling D4's from characters such as Shinnok, Kotal Kahn, Sub-Zero, Kano himself and a bunch of other characters. Only problem is, you need meter to really be safe since the mind game consists of B1 baits, B1 parries or B1 EX UPBALL which will blow up almost anything and jump out attempts. Your opponent also has a reason to actually be afraid of Kano when meter is all lost and gone. Can he be zoned out? Yeah, very easily. But, with enough match up knowledge and footsie/use of stamina, he can get in safely. He no longer needs to rely on combos since grapple set ups, stagger baits and parries can win the game. Against fast projectile characters, Cybernetic is the go to variation still and if it gets any upgrades it will be the only counter pick for zoners if you play Kano only. Cutthroat hasn't changed much but the overhead range extension and safe DB1 is enough to place him top 15 easily, break him down. *Cough* take away B1 ticks and on hit command throws and Commando will possibly be useless with what's going to happen in March as far as character changes, buffs and this new breaker system. Cybernetic is still an overall solid variation and air ball being an overhead has potential. Cyber is not dead btw. If anything, with all of these tweaks, he's basically buffed if you really think about his play style and the new breaker system. Zone, Footsie, bait and punish. He might actually receive some tweaks to keep up with his other variations but Commando is turning out to be very fun with enough match up knowledge and skill.
This is Commando at it's current state going against cR Dragon's Assassin Kitana. I think the vid speaks for itself when I mention that Commando will have to work for his life to win against zoners. How is this design broken? The options are endless with all of the gaps Kano received.
I outplayed his Grandmaster but whenever I got closed into the corner, it was game over for me. This match up is a suicide mission for Commando Kano tbh.
This match up is very fun. Need more time with it but Jax has a worthy up close contender here.
