Here is 10 minutes of fighting GT: Oynx50005

I soooo screwed my own self last fight. I couldn't get my fingers to do a command throw. LOL! Overall a positive experience. The damage Kano can do in a short time is amazing! No fancy comboing needed, just punches and grabs. Commando is all about business, leave that fancy 15 hit somewhere else. There is no need to use meter for damge, so save it for breakers. 1,1,2 into command grad is a easy 25%. The tick throw pressure is amazing! 3,3 command grab works even if it hits the person blocked or not. 2,2 is amazing and the range is good for surprising folks. Just the being able to tick throw more means a easier 16% damage everyone, so imagine how fast that can add up?
If enough people complain instead of figure out the weaknesses, NRS won't let this stay :( . I fought my buddy's boneshaper shinnok and Cybernetic Kano and it's still a pain so it would be a shame. He still gets zoned out.

I fought one guy and he jump in-between my strings. He caught on to what I was doing and made me whiff couple of times.

1,1,2 has a gap also if you are blocking you can armor through it or jump to avoid the grab. 2,2 won't command grab if the first hit connects I just found out. Not sure need to confirm this on practice mode.

Cybernetic isn't done guys. Consider the timer. It's important. So is the change to the breaker system. B1 having a gap is OK because you can check with EX knives (which you were probably gunna do at some point for frame advantage anyway.) Don't overreact. The timer imo makes this better. air ball being an overhead means TK air ball is also a thing. lolol.

And no, I'm not delusional. At the moment Commando and Cutthroat are better now. But now I think all 3 variations are great. Im excited.

Air ball can come out as fast as dive kick.. D4 x Air ball x Throw x Bait x B1 mindgames? I'm gonna keep reading posts about Cybernetic being useless. Kind of ridiculous given the fact that most of the Top tier is getting tweaked. Breaker system is also something people aren't thinking about and the timer as you've mentioned. Btw, off the record... What do you think of Commando? And NRS making any further changes to the variation. Up ball was tweaked also, might be beta state but it's definitely different.

Commando is too strong. I hope they dont change it but it's honestly odee now.
What would you change about it if you think it's too strong? Lol, do you have the beta? We need to find each other and get games in bro. We still haven't seen the rest of the KP2 and changes. Don't assume he's too strong yet lmao.

The way command grabs work now is odee. It's a system change but not one i necessarily agree with lolol. He just needed more damage (which could have been done differently) and the choke hit advantage which he got.

B13 no longer has a gap like it did before this last beta update today. It is in fact an even faster transition than it used to be. Looks weird at first but its amazing.

Another change im not sure if it was documented but the Blade slice in cutthroat has a much better upward hitbox now. Crazy!

I will link to a video of me streaming the beta. I played mostly Kano, especially towards the end of the video so check it out!

Nice. Kano is now playing MKX with the rest of the top tier. Top 12 for sure. Can we now finally have some Kano in Top 8 at some majors? :)
