Dodge rolls for a bar. This changes things.

mb forward dash (roll) seems like a great mechanic with how zoning heavy the first game was they seem to be addressing the problem

That's not really addressing the problem because these cost meter & if theirs MUs like Lex vs Zod these won't help

What do you mean? This gives you an option to use a bar to get in; this would be a huge help in those situations.

you'll get a bar of meter lol 1 bar isnt impossible to get. honestly they should just tone down the zoning it was too powerful in IGAU

I have a better question that noone has asked..

Can you cancels combos with a roll, blockstrings that have gaps, can you cancel Supergirls beam with a roll into pressure? This gould get stupid people...in a good till its broke kinda way.

How did this get lost in that sea of nonsense? If you can cancel into roll then there are going to be some very awesome setups.

I couldn't agree more. It kind of amazes how the "zoners" think it takes skill to do what they do.

I go back and forth when it comes to zoning and rush down. So I can tell you they both take skill. I prefer rush down though.

No, you can't cancel specials into the roll. You can cancel strings though, so yeah, set ups

I'm realizing zoning takes skill, Pig got all butt hurt over this post and called me scrub. I just don't have enough patience to deal with it (zoning that is I am fully aware I'm a scrub).

Not sure what you meant bro. But if you mean you need to be patient to deal with zoning, yes, you gotta be very strategic whether you're attacking or defending.

Because rolls are usually meterless in other games. And zoning can still be strong in these games with meterless rolls. CvS2 had arguably the best rolls in any fighting game, and yet the game started out as a turtlefest with characters like C-Sagat. And KoF may be rushdown heavy but that's more to having other movement options such as short hops and running.

On a related note, I never get why NRS likes to copy these other mechanics from other games, and then decides to try to be "unique" by simply adding a meter requirement to them.

Looking back at Injustice 1, I'm just picturing how much better or worse some character's offense would have been had they had the ability to dodge roll or air tech for a bar.

Character's with odd floaty juggle combos would have suffered offensively as it would've presented easy air tech moments for opponents, super long range folks like Zod would have had to work a bit more vs dodge rolls, corner pressure folks relying on 50/50's would have been a tossup as to how badly wakeup dodgeroll would affect them. I say this because many characters had autocorrect options on some of their better oki options so dodge rollers may just lose a bar and roll into some tools.

The more I think on this the more excited I get. I would've loved to dodge roll as Green Arrow or Shazam. I would've hated my Green Arrow combos with air techs on deck though. GYAH! Such a hype game changer. Can't wait to play this.
