Your predictions on who will be top 5 next patch

[CaptainCM]

22112

Ah, always puts a smile on my face

 

[JDM]

Johnny, Liu Kang, Jax, F/T (probably?), Sub Zero

 

[GreatKungLao]

Liu Kang is the immortal champion of Mortal Kombat, as said in his MK4 bio.

It will remain true in his gameplay and balancing as well. Forever a champion, savior, Hero.

 

[MadeOfMetal]

Someone please explain to me what happened to F/T that makes him godlike now please?

Ferra / Torr
- B,F+2 (Boulder Roll) in Lackey is a bit safer on block and recovery slightly faster in general.



in no order my top 5 (i feel quan gained what he lost, Still has HTB with meter. Rune still plus if delayed, Gains better zoning if rune delayed, tick throw options will be used. better wakeup. can still use same setups if u pull bat out first)


Quan chi

Shinnok

Reptile

Sonya

Liu Kang

honerable mentions:

JC, Jax, Takeda

I hear you guys,i am stuck in my " main non fixed issues"corner and i am watching everything you say for about 2 hours.

Now since the OP gives me the chance i will say what i think.
1.only one guy plays erron and wins,why they nerfed him?
2.What the game will become after the grapplers buffs?
3.Two variations exist just to destroy the opponent's game,Grandmaster and Venomous....the one got nerfed and the other got buffed,why?
4.liu kang builts less meter that before.............Seriously?So what?
5.F/T join the top 10 room.Nice.
I don't know about you guys,but i am not impressed.But since nothing is officially released I expect more.

i dunno Bruh But this XL , KP 2 , new online it's like a roller coaster , sometimes bring happiness and sometimes bring puke and fear in r face
TBH im more afraid of DLC's than the usual OP Bitchies

 

[ghostwriteous]

So is NRS balancing this game or just shuffling tier list with these updates?

 

[CaptainCM]

The "infamous string of many names" still haunts these forums almost a year later. Spooky.

 

[lm Tweakk]

Dude,wtf is shaolin doing in your list?

Shaolin has 2 safe armored moves , safe 50/50's. Tons of space control , great conversions off everything. Shaolin drop is extremely plus on hit making his oki godlike. Great blockstrings for good chip and meterbuilding. Low profiling projectile , and a guided projectile. Considering the utility I'm surprised they do 7%. Not to mention all the other top tiers got nerfed. I think he's definitely top 5 now.

 

[ArmageddonUMK]

Reptile, Shaolin KJ, Grandmaster, Liu Kang, Jax (no order)

Not enough experience with F/T to comment but those buffs certainly sound good. Ninjutsu might be knocking on the top 5 door as well.

Wait,explain now please.where are the safe 50/50?

second, like balance in MOBA-games

 

[Shade667]

Ferra torr is good now, but hes far from top 5.

 

[The Celebrity]

1. Swarm Queen D'vorah (her bad matchups are pretty much all fixed now)
2. Wrestler Jax (probably best overall character, just not as many 6-4s as d'vorah after this patch im willing to bet)
3. Grandmaster Subzero (was top tier and stayed the same)
4. Cutthroat Kano
5. F/T, Liu Kang, or Johnny Cage (I'm pretty undecided on this 5th spot lol)

People sleeping on Cutthroat Kano imo. Now that he has a safe meterless special at -5 which is perfect for using backdash to bait punishes with. Not to mention the buffed B1 range... he's gonna be super hella scary. He's a fundamental monster already with options for just about every scenario, now what he does well is enhanced and what he struggled with is fixed. Its his time.

+1

 

[SaSSolino]

1 Dragon's Fire Liu kang
2 Ruthless F/T
3 Ronin Takeda
4 Swarm Queen D'Vorah
5 Hellfire Scorpion

Commando Kano and Impostor Shinnok also got huge buffs and are good candidates, but I wanna see how they play out first. Demolition Sonya is also super strong.

I want to put kano on my top 5 list but im scared of the backlash from ppl who play him. They feel that kanos buff is very justified. I think he is okay but damage need to be toned down a bit

i wouldnt talk about kano when he has suffered as he did.... im scared for you.... they just got the buff now your asking for a tone down.... "looking ahead waiting for the torches and pitchforks" "hides in trench"

 

[xxFalcon Loverxx]

What's up with all these "Ferra/Torr top 1" Lists?Torr couldn't have been buffed that much.
