What's new

I'm tired of fighting a HORDE of Scorpions and losing only because I play D'vorah!

Lun

proud TERF!
Clearly he lost because jade is a higher tier character
sigh

I said it before, if you play on PS4, I'll gladly-

No, wait.

Even if I sucked and I was the worst player ever, D'vorah is still crap and she still has zero chance vs the horde of Scorpions.

(I'm a she, by the way.)

It looks like he has no movement and just hits a button any time there's a space to do so :eek:

That's a record of me spazzing because I was raging. But feel free to challenge me on PS4 and get some easy wins. :) (I'm a she, stop calling me he, by the way!)

What do you want to happen? Do you expect the hordes of bad scorpions to just stop picking their main against you? The person at fault right now is you, D'Vorah needs a buff and right now she just isn't viable for competitive play. Her max damage being in the low 300's and neutral slow as molasses, you simply need to pick up another character to pick up her slack.

Were all well aware of Dvorahs problems. No need to make a thread about it.

And no there is no zero chance there is always a chance. This isnt some zod vs lex matchup. Get better or pick another character.

I'll probably be the one person here that'll actually back @Lun on this one. She was able to beat the de facto leader of the Cassie community in @Vslayer (and someone whose Cassie skill I've seen firsthand) with her D'Vorah, so when it comes to talent, she's no slouch if she can do that with arguably the worst character in the game.

I beleive she has the right to make a thread about whatever she wants. Don't like it Don't comment. I will play you Lorzack502 gamertag I still need me dvorah head in Krypt lol
 
I really haven't come across a TON of Scorpion players. He's common sure, but i feel like I play more Lui's and Lao's. And if I'm on ranked I wade through a sea of Erron Blacks and Geras's. I'm on xbone, if that matters.

Sorry to hear bout the low tier struggle tho, I know how annoying that can be.

Your right, it's NRS' fault and only their fault why their character bias gets in the way of balancing the game. You can only do so much without a mid starter, an overhead, etc.

OK so first of all, thinking Scorpion wasn't always the #1 MK character, and that was only done after some kind of plot by Ed Boon post-MK3? Bitch please.
But moving on to the topic at hand, why don't you add me in PSN at jhonnykiller45 and we can test out your "theory" of you losing only because of the characters being played? We'll play three FT3's, first one I'll use a mid tier character, then high, then Scorpion. You with D'Vorah through and through to see how much of a difference that actually makes. Seems fair?

the game is pretty unbalanced anyway so i can see the reason you are being upset. tbh thu Erron and the rest of the top tier characters are way more hard to play against if the opponent knows what he is doing, Scorpion is just the poster boy so you gonna see him alot anyway

Dude OP do u not realize how bad of an idea it would be if NRS patched the game hella early like they did with previous NRS titles besides I2. Overpatching MKX early on fucking turned ppl away from the game (like 5 or 6 patches in like 2 months in) and now ppl asking for patches and yes I get it Dvorah needs fixes but patching a game so early for balance is never a good idea.

Aww shucks, thanks man! :3

I didn't say anything about it myself, because.... then I'd be as petty as the guy who posted that video of me rage-spazzing. I'm not naming everyone I fought here to have them back me up, if they don't wanna step forward.
But the reason @Vslayer fought me at my peak was..... that she's a very nice and friendly person so win or lose she didn't make me salty!

Although I actually came to appreciate that video now. It's a very useful reminder that, if I rage-spaz or send hatemail, the opponent may actually record it and remember about it one whole month later. I deserved it 100%....

Good point, but if the general consensus is that D'vorah is so awful she shouldn't be played, isn't an urgent fix required just to make her viable? I mean, people are just going to forget she exists since everybody but the most die-hard fans have reasonably avoided playing her on account of how negative-broken she is.

The reality is if she gets the help she needs (let's say she ends up being upper mid or one of the better characters) ppl will play with characters that can help them win the best. Jax in MK9 (at launch he was hot garbage) and he eventually got a fuck ton of buffs and ppl gravitated towards him, If a character sucks well of course there aren't going to be ppl who want to play them (case and point: Alien after the last MKX patch where his usage became non-existent). Tanya went through that phase for a while when she got nerf to oblivion but then one of her variations became viable again where ppl played her. The reality is also that devs can't just drop patches any day they want and even if they dropped it suddenly it would piss off players who have put hours into their characters (Case and Point: CSZ and Cyrax being nerfed after ONLY a month they were released as DLC because ppl overreacted to SETUPS AND TOUCH OF DEATH COMBOS without them being given a chance for ppl to figure out tech). At this point in the game they're probably going to drop it just after EVO (abt a little over a month from now) and they probably do realize they made a mistake by nerfing her unreasonably (Not the first time NRS has done this, case and point: killing Aquaman into oblivion in I2, nerfing Bo when he already sucked in the hotfix a month after KP2, nerfing Captain Cold even tho he was fine)

Nerf dat sh..ah this isn't a Subzero thread?

Ah what the hell I'm feeling generous. NERF DIS SHIT TOO
