Chars that kill footsies in MKXL?

[Safe Armor]

Interested in tyms opinions on which chars kill or completely ignore footsies in this game?

Name char and reasons!

First that comes to my mind is Smoke! For obvious reasons, teleport, smoke away!

 

[Karma]

Takeda i assume

 

[Damaja325]

takeda and kung jin for sure

 

[Dankster Morgan]

Sub-Zero in some matchups

 

[Safe Armor]

@Damaja325 @Karma @Dankster Morgan how?

 

[Dankster Morgan]

If they don't have a meterless option around the klone, ggs.

 

[errormacro7]

Reptile. He's broken too, haven't you heard?

 

[Karma]

Sub-zero (Grandmaster)- Destroys your footsies by klone for most characters.
Takeda (Any variation)- Forces you to stay close by whips for most characters.
Kung jin(Any variation)- His jump-ins and Jump up attacks or his neutrals can destroy your footsies for those slow characters like Bo' Rai Cho.

Takeda, GM Sub

 

[CrazyFingers]

Killer Leatherface. Berserker Stance->1 . Nuff said.

 

[thlityoursloat]

Slasher Jason.

Just mash out b122 in the neutral like a retard.

Just mash out b122 in the neutral like a (soap bar in my mouth).

That thing that's punishable on block for a lot of the cast? And the B1 that's punishable by even more of the cast?

I think you've got the wrong variation

 

[CrazyFingers]

Oh look, someone who knows what they're talking about

 

[Darth Mao]

GM Sub for sure.

 

[Amplified$hotz]

Shinnok

 

[TyCarter35]

Takeda by far. Ninjutsu to an extent if the player forces u to play at his range against some characters like Butcher, BRC who have no neutral or mids to fight his f2 and d4 (I've literally only had to use those 2 buttons in those matchups besides Anti airing the occasional jump attempt) tho his swords have dreadful recovery so it balances it out. KJ with his air attacks destroys all means of a neutral

boy oh boy, -9 on a long range string sure is pretty punishable, at worst the Jason loses his turn on block, just like with Ninjutsu's f2. The damn string has ridiculous priority with its speed, hitbox and lack of a hurtbox.

I guarantee you 80% of the slashers you've fought have not spaced that correctly to not ge punished.

 

[CrazyFingers]

Also B122 is pretty bad on whiff which means there are not one but two punishes for improper spacing.

 

[TheGangstaFace]

Shinnok, Takeda, GM, Killer. I agree with all of those

Slasher still leans on the auto footsie side, especially when you combine that with his unAAble jump ins.

I mean...eh?

These are the top 3 FREE and people will agree with time.

Smoke, Jason and Killer Leatherface.

Edit: Not Slasher. Relentless/Unstoppable
