All jokes aside, NRS already cemented the fact that they buff/nerf based on bias, popularity and favoritism Regardless of which characters does actually need buffs or deserve nerfs. I've been saying so all the time before the patch come out but ppl didn't listen, Now you see characters like Kitana and subzero keeps getting refined to the finest detail one patch after the other till they now stand on a tier of their own.
And if you are looking for some sense in these changes..there are NONE. When the patch came out with the new meta, The general consensus about it is that they tried to balance the game by tuning down offense. which is fine, great idea, let's do that. So no more armor launchers, Stamina nerfed so pressure characters can no longer do jack shit, Kotal is "too much" now; no more fast advancing mids..,etc. great now the game is balanced, amirite?
Wrong. You now get to see characters not only do they keep their prepatch stuff that doesn't fit the new meta, but they get even more bullshit stuff that doesn't fit the new meta. Of course it's clear now am focusing my point on bitchass kitana as the primary example of such madness.
Literally everything that this character got goes against what the new meta aims to do and the changes that befallen the other characters:
-She still keeps armor launcher
-Buffed hitbox on her fast advancing mid so she can launch you from half a screen away if you're pressing buttons
-New float cancel buff so now she have a similar pressure to what gotten vanilla tempest Lao gets nerfed
-All the rest of her prepatch tools are either buffed or remains unchanged
why/how?? We all know why, If a man child works for you he ain't gonna give a shit about balance. He's just gonna make his waifu becomes top tier. How is that even fair? "Welcome to Netherrealm studios, we already took your money and we don't give a shit no more. this is the hand you've been dealt so try to enjoy. Now excuse us, we're moving on to focus on our next game"
At this point i don't even bother talking about it since nothing is going to change, Am just giving my 2 cents since you made that thread that i retracted from doing myself. Frankly mkx has been a train wreck of disappointments for me, Yes i had and still having some fun playing it but am generally unhappy and i wouldn't be buying any of NRS future games on release anymore. I'll take my time to observe what they offer and how they're being handled before i decide whether or not am going to support them with my wallet.
