1 bar block breakers would be sufficient. If one were to gain meter while blocking on top of this, pressure characters would drastically drop in tier. Anyways, I just tested it in training mode and every hit on block gains the attacker 6% of a bar of meter, so for your idea to work the opponent would have to only gain 2-3% of a bar on every blocked hit. But if that's the case, then they might as well just make it so the attacker only gains 3-4% meter instead of gaining 6% while the opponent gains nothing. I just don't think it's a good idea; it's unnecessary at best.
LOOL that block breaker is useless as shit and they really need to fix mids.
shut up zoofs
zoofs why doesn't your user title say "bless"?
Good luck block breaking a 5050.
What I mean is, take a character like Quan Chi for example, if you guess right on the first 50/50 combo starter, he can still use a bar to be plus enough to get another 50/50 with EX rune. If you know this, you can simply wait for the EX rune and break it, thus nullifying his second 50/50 attempt while making him waste an entire bar. If he knows you're going to do this, he'll decide not to spend a bar, but then he gets punished because both options are unsafe. As a result, the Quan player will not be going for 50/50s nearly as often. Another example is after a blocked JIP. After a blocked JIP your opponent is now plus enough for a free 50/50, but if you don't want to take that 50/50, just block break the JIP. One more example is a 50/50 that's in the middle of a string instead of at the start. Block break the start of the string so you don't have to eat the 50/50. This means not having to guess Erron Black's 21122 string into command grab/sand grenade/delay into 50/50/whatever else. Same goes for Sonya's military stance 50/50s or Mileena's f343/4 string or Cryomancer's b33 into EX hammer into full combo.
Post of the year candidate.
lmao
nah block button is dope, plus we don't need more ambiguous cross ups in a game with this much offense already
I don't see NRS making what's technically ranged attack into breakable one in this game.
Just as Kotal jip1
Kotal's ji1 doesn't protect the skies like Lao's ji2. =P That shit has its own effin' orbit. -_-Just as Kotal jip1
You can't break projectiles. 1 bar block breakers would give quan chi mains a constant boner
lol This. So this.
Yes you can if you do them in succession with a string or normal. I tested it in training mode myself; try it. Pick Quan Chi vs Quan Chi, record AI, do b2 close rune into EX rune, then playback and try to block break it as the bar of meter disappears from using the EX rune. It works.
