Arkane Slim

I did a lot but I never hated...
I have suggestions to consider. Give her more mixups mid string.
Make the second hit in 2334 hit low
Make the last hit of F2U2 2+4 come out and hit OH

Was thinking that as well as far as the 2nd hit of the 2334 string. The 2nd hit does look like a low, kind of. Hits in the thigh. Think originally it did hit low, and they were like oh this is too good, and she has a gun... nope.

Don't forget her best quote
"Bitch Please" (might be Cassie specific)


Edited some things...


The following are all changes that help the character throughout all of her variations. Jacqui's main problem is having an insanely short reach with her faster normals, and lack of solid pokes.

Don't expect her animations to magically change or her arms or legs to get longer [But slightly extended horizontal hitboxes on s1 and d3 would be nice], so here are some reasonable suggestions.


Universal changes... Individual suggestions


The ability to recover 2 frames earlier on hit for Low Rocket and Bionic Dash would improve combo consistency, while also making Dusting more consistent after a low into Bionic Dash in Shotgun.

S1, Slightly extended hitbox

7 frame d3, 1 frame faster than the current 8 - What this move really needs is an extended hitbox...

9 frame d2, 2 frames faster than the current 11

11 frame d4, 2 frames faster than the current 13

10 frame Tech Shield/Advance Tech Shield, 1 frame faster than the current 11

MB BF2 going back to it's original damage and being made -6/7 on block, making it safe VS most of the cast. This would give Jacqui one safe Wake Up option, at the cost of a bar.

A new command for 4u4 [Stanky Leg], maybe just 4~4. I think the entire Jaqcui community has despised this command since it was found early on.

F121 string. The last hit coming out on block. At 0 VS the current +2 that is mentioned in the command list, however... In it's current form, it is non applicable due to the last hit of the string not coming out on block.


Variation specific...


High Tech, Quick Burst getting a faster start up.

Shotgun, more plus frames on df2 and if a second one hit consecutively, would cause a knockdown similar to Kano's Eye Laser.


Non gameplay related, but HYPE! related.


Jacqui Briggs has some of the best lines in the game...


Say my name BITCH!

You feelin me now?

Want some more?

Just look at you...

You did't see that one coming?

I'm on a roll now.

You aint' all that.

I play for keeps!

Next time I'd Block!

Weren't expecting that, were you?

Hmmph!

My daddy taught me that one.

AWWWWE DAMN!


Currently... The only way you're gonna hear these lines is from throws or using some of her MB moves which are currently all unsafe or used for Brutalities, negating these lines altogether. MB DB2 would be good instead of MB BF1 as it's used in some BnB's.

Simple suggestion... Triggering VO's after regular BF4, her most commonly used combo ender. This would add hype to the end of every BnB converted and would be awesome for her in offline streamed tournaments. Hearing "Say my name BITCH!" was actually the reason I first took interest in the character. Maybe after MB DB2, something she uses in combos in FA.

Since learning to play her, the only time I ever hear any of these amazing lines is with throws and wake up MB BF1, Currently her best Wake Up... but still death on block.



Asking the Jacqui community for your thoughts on these universal changes, along with recommendations for

High Tech... and Shotgun.

Any Jacqui Briggs brethren I may have forgotten...

Would love to see this character used in offline tournaments by many of the top contenders that have tried her and dropped her almost immediately. Would also like to hear their explanation as to why?

Jacqui needs to have the best zoning and 50/50s ever, plus safe armored launchers and a six frame d1.

Fair and balanced. If it's good enough for Quan players to request, it's good enough for Jacqui.

Why are you going around spamming this in every thread? What's the point?
It holds true for literally every character at this point.

In all fairness, it's not like I'm going over to the Raiden forums and being like "BUFF THUNDA GOD YALL", but if'n thar can be a SUPES SRSLY thread in the Quan forums about giving him a 6 frame d1 or some armored launcher or whatever, then goddammit EVERYONE with a buff thread better get in on it.

The game changes aren't based on balance, they're based on noise. For the most part it's only Sub-Zero players who remember this but it's inarguably true.

Last I checked, they wanted a 7f poke to not get block infinite'd by Liu and certain others.

But sure, keep dribbling this rubbish around all the forums.

If the the last hit of F+2, U2, 2+4 came out on block and was an overhead, then I think the 2nd hit of that string should be cancellable into her air groundpound (which is a low), because that string would be too predictable without something like that. They would just always block high after the 2nd hit.

What game changes have NRS done as of yet that weren't needed though? All these buffs threads are just that, buff threads. They aren't new testaments. Just have to ignore them.

You're correct. Jacqui does not need a decent D4, 13 frames is fine. And her D3 barely being able to reach 90% of the cast's poke range is fine too. Just back walk baiting out a whiff and hope you don't eat a fast advancing normal that leads to 30+ damage.

Also, having the best VO's in the game linked to moves that are not commonly used is cool too, we don't want Jacqui being hype, it's cool to have everyone hate the character. I played over one hundred matches between yesterday and today and got to hear "Say my name bitch!" one time, it was awesome.

Also don't worry... Jacqui is being ignored by 90+ percent of MKX players.

Mokap will need some company in the afterlife...

Former Sektor player here. I've been trying to get into this fucking game and, oddly enough, only liking Jacqui so far. I hate a lot of these dumbass designs, if we're being honest. I've decided to suffer with yall.

Things she needs:
A white tankie.
A Skin Diamond hairstyle.
Saying "U ain't Sheeeeit". How did NRS not put this in?

I don't know how to ask for things. ANYwho, I used to tell anyone that would listen in the Sektor forums about using d3 as an anti air as it goes into full combo. A lot of characers didn't have that capability in mk9. Seems that way in MKX too. Jacqui does though, in full auto. Her hurtbox shrinks to cold-water-penis proportions. Just wanted to share.

D1 and D3 are my go to AA's [With the exception of certain MU's with characters that have crazy jip hitboxes]. In FA, I'll D1 or D3 into DB2 for a full combo. And in SG, I'll D1 or D3 into 12, run, 12~Dust. Those are soooo good. But...

Still does not give her any good counter pokes sadly. D3 would be "okay" if the range was slightly better. And D4 is just unimaginably pathetic.

Skin Diamond alt... Yes please.

:DOGE



Either D1~DB2, Run, 33~BF4 for 31% or D1~DB2, run, 12, run, 12~BF4 for 29% depending on the height of the opponent once hit.
Last derail and I swear I'll get back to this desolate thread topic :)

Widow, have u considered, D1 (or D3), db2, b2, bf 4 for 28%? It's super simple, tough to drop. I'll take simplicity and style over fear of dropping a combo. No run button, yo.

Nothing wrong with that one. A solid 28% Probably perfect for online [Even though the low poke anti airs are not, lol.]

Welp, here's a buff suggestion for high tech: download a new variation. NRS just phoned this one in. I can see the meeting now:

...

...

...

How bout, ...hmm

...

...

Anybody know what we can do with this one?

Iono, man *tosses baseball up in the air* I already did my part by suggesting the gauntlets be white, soooo

Hey, WB has open bar for us tonight, member?

Is that TONIGHT??

Well, shit, um, we still have to figure out this variat...

Fuck this variation they have craft beers!

Well then lets just make a move that gives her more "power" then and let's go!

Isn't that like a tacit admission that we know this variation blows 30-40 dicks?

I get that doesn't address the many issues with AAAH FUCK IT. shes just in here to advance the story anyway.

So...

...

beers?

LMAO Rip, haha.

Nah, I don't like that hat or the chains. I was thinkin maybe an NY fitted. That hair would be cool though. I'll be cool with any non ninja mime joke type clown fit, just hope she get's something. Not lookin good as for now though... Least popular character in the game getting a new fit, with dozens more characters still in need of new skins.

Brazzers DLC, lol.
