Yeah I know, but I end up using it at least 2x during a match, I just know when it feels right I guess. but its not spectacular.

f22u4, fan, f33xxExFan, d1xxfan, ji3xxfloatxxNJP,f4xxLift, f4(any ender). Or be dirty and go f4xxSharpen. Then immediately go b3xxExFan. If you got the bawlz.
My first post in this thread would probably be the best reply to this. Have you looked at frames? Do you know what staggers and baits are when in close? Kitana doesnt revolve around keep out, that's just what everyone loves to do.
Kitana, A ZONER, doesn't revolve around keep out. Lmao I'm done. You've shown enough. Worry about the character on your avatar
Because she has zoning capabilities, she's strictly a zoner? Hmm... I see why you're having trouble and asking for more buffs
Please point out in this thread where I asked for buffs lol.
Because I mention one of my team members is very good with the variation suddenly I'm losing to Assassin and need help? Could just be the fact that you don't understand the meta of assassin and just stick to Royal Storm. No shame in that I suppose... ...
What is this meta of Assassin that isn't present in Royal storm? From my personal experience playing Kitana since day one has that Assassin does not have the anti zoning, mobility, and corner carry that square wave provides as well as lacking full-screen unbreakable that royal storm ex air lift provides and I think reflect speaks for it's self. You give up all of that for a decent parry, and about 2-3% extra damage on hard knockdown combos. As it stands there is no reason to use sharpen in it's current state. It would be much appreciated if you could explain this to me.
You know what, i have respect for your opinion. I'd like to know why because i've even had other mileena players on here tell me piercing beats assassin by 6-4. I'd like you to go into detail and strats on how because clearly a lot of kitana players are doing something wrong.
Man now you KNOW you gotta explain this lol
We have seen his Kitana and I don't know if I want to bang my head against my walls.
well for one instance from what ive doing and what frustrates mileenas is limiting options to only throw sais. the threat of the low sai makes this MU more in mil's favor. but ex Assassin Run and parry give mileena hella trouble. IMO the MU at highest level is more neutral cause they both have options to limit the others go to's
Force mileena to throw low sai and tk fan to evade them, when they think you're gonna do tk fan do tk float to bait the teleport kick and full combo punish. During mid screen for bad low sai throws i can use ex run and during wakeup i can scare her with parry. Try being out of range for roll to make her not instantly punish a fan toss. @xKhaoTik does this sound right??
Why should all the other characters have them (even the ones with good zoning too) but Kitana cant have one?
Kenshi? And before you say kenjutsu df1, remember mournful has OH air glaive which is 0 on block and launches and her very fast startup xray in all variations which we all know kitana doesn't suffer in the meter build dept.
Mb glave is 24 frames and so is back 2 both are reactable. X-Ray does create a true 50/50 but it's only 35% for all your meter
Kitana does not need a true 5050 for her damage. She does a lot of chip, meter build, and lots of safe strings especially mournful with phantom frames all over the place with threat of fans/glaives. I think it's about time some of the top tiers get nerfed or the very bottom tiers get very good buffs. Kitana is right in the middle, or maybe a bit more on the top side when it comes to tiers so far and is a reasonable character.
I disagree. Match ups where kitana gets out zoned(HQT predator) are a nightmare. I think if forward 2 becomes an overhead she will be bs shinnok all over again but my solution fixes the lack of reason to pick assassin as well as giving her a fighting chance in those match ups. Her mix up is pretty pitiful since her only mix ups are throw mix ups. The only characters I can think of who have it worse than her in that category are balanced kenshi and cybernetic Kano and both those characters have variations that let them go on the offense. Kitana has no such variation.
