Just ban the move. Easy. You can't nut punch in basketball and if you do you're ejected. Apply same logic to this. You can't prevent every Lao main from playing in this tourney, Ermac's glitch was variation specific and much easier to execute. Lao never uses wakeup tele or hat toss anyway
I mean, I got away w quite a few nut punches throughout my basketball career.....

Then why dont you guys pick Quan Chi or Ermac and do their METER DRAIN situations (which are much safer to get) to cancel it out:DOGE

Ban Quan (Sorcerer), Ermac (MoS) and KL if you're gonna ban Kung Lao.
I say let it rock, if you're doing wakeup raw teleport you're probably not winning the tournament anyway.

It's not just the teleport. Also, your ignoring situations where you already have a bar of meter and get to teleport in a situation where it's completely safe.

Outside of that, free meter on wakeup hat toss. Kenshi is pissed.. and any other characters that have full screen knock downs.

If someone knocks you down, a wakeup teleport is never 'safe'

Here we go more downplay on the glitch, regardless of how safe or unsafe it is the move itself along with hat toss should be banned I highly doubt they'll ban the character though. So why can't any Laos just agree that the wake ups of these moves should at LEAST be banned. Not always safe sure but there are plenty of scenarios that make this broken even if it is just 1 wake up tele that works out for you and you get the dmg plus the bar that alone is absurd and if you disagree with that your just saying so to defend your own character its really simple as that. I wonder how many times you've woken up with tele in any ESL match and its worked out for you or even if it didn't you got a free bar and could now break when you normally couldn't and don't sit here and try to say you NEVER on gods good earth have hit wake up tele.

Because its like saying to sorcerer quans not to use a rune trap that can drain meter, even though it might be technically the right move to make in the game at that moment.

It's a difficult one, I dunno what to say really.
But, how many tournament worthy Lao players are there? And how many of them have won anything yet? :DOGE

AND out of all 2 of those people, how many people wakeup teleport? (ex not included)

But seeing as TCW is coming up in less than 19 days, and I'm flying across the planet to play there, and have ONLY played Kung Lao since day 1, I'd be pretty pissed if he was banned.

I also don't think the character should be banned specifically for this reason but I don't think its right to just let it rock either all I'm saying. If there are more glitches those should be addressed too. Just want fair tournaments. Its honestly unfortunate that NRS has known about this for over 2 weeks according to them and haven't addressed it.

Falls down too much
If it was just teleport let it rock. But Hat toss at full screen? Ehh that's gotta be banned, it too good.

I agree with the last part there. That's why we should just DQ people who use this on wakeup. It's dumb, unintended, and gives you a huge advantage. It's not JUST wakeup teleport once again. Any character that knocks you down full screen gets super boned here. You literally get free meter. Or maybe you have to eat a projectile. Worth the bar of meter.

Are you purposely not hearing what people are saying? People have said COUNTLESS times they don't want the whole character banned, just the moves. What are you not understanding?

gotta take it to make it
Again just 1 variation. Not an entire character. Do I think the glitch gives an advantage. Yes of course. But if you were going to pay 400-500$ to go to a tournament and you only played KL and you show up and he is banned.

I'd be pissed, If it is just 1 variation than yes. Ban that one. Not the entire character.
This is how I feel about it. There has to be something else they can do...
