I'm not going to Summer Jam if that's what you're implying.

This week was held at a convention (Wizard World) instead of at GGA, which is what caused the issue with the stream.
I'm genuinely sorry to hear that, Dizzy. I want to see that beefy Cage I know you're packing.

Funny, where are the Johnny Cage downplayers? I've heard he was tournament unviable, mid to low tier and a Ford Focus lmao
Hey...Can the Ford Focus get you from point A to point B? Is it comfortable, and does it ride nice? Does it have Bluetooth and Aux input? It even gets good gas mileage. It's a good car. You ENTIRELY missed the fucking point of the Ford Focus comment.

Please post the people saying he's tournament unviable...We've all seen A-List do well, so if anyone said that, they're an idiot.

Do not imply something that is not true. The Johnny Cage fanbase is not known for downplaying, I invite anyone to go and read the JC threads and verify that. Now, I'm not saying you did not heard/read those statements, however, not only are they scarce, as some of them are really stripped of context. Most of the JC fanbase just want fixes to hitbox issues that causes whiffing and inconsistensies and not buffs.

No one said that. I'm just sick of people making him out to be a top 5 fighter. A character with whiff issues on his most important strings is just hurting. His weird jumps as well as jump ins are also hurting.

Johnny's not shit. The fact that he can get +frames off basically every string is an amazing tool and standing resets are always great to have. F3 is amazing to whiff punish with and can be runcancelled into more dmg or pressure depending on whether it was blocked or not.
My issue is just that people still look at him with MK9 glasses - Johnny ain't as cheesy as he was back then. It's an honest character who can produce results for people who put in honest work.

We could use some love for fisticuffs though...

And no one said he was a top 5 character dude but at least you're right that ppl wanted him to be the MK9 Cage without going through the right way.

LMAO this is what the ford focus thing mean now? You know what you said man, you may not have said he was tourny unviable but you downplayed him. Don't make me go to the JC forums and bring your golden quotes here lol

Well, first i didn't said: ''The JC community are all downplayers'', my post was designed to downplayers so you are the one lying here and second: You guys tried to avoid this with his hitbox problems, i never said that this wasn't a problem and didn't had to be fixed.
If you guys didn't downplayed him, simply ignore this post, otherwise use it if fits ;)

dizzy not playing cage isnt right. never was. super glad he's returning to cage.
i knew a-list frame traps were very good first time i played with cheapeddie on launch day. but they kept stealth buffing his cancels, i just dunno if +20 isn't enough for anyone then maybe mk is not for u.
