I have my numbers, but I don't mind agreeing with Baraka being 7-3, cage 6-4 Kitana. As far as stryker, espio plays it best, and I found tech to fight stryker, it's 6-4 Kitana.IMO:
Baraka: 7-3
Freddy: 4-6
Jax: I hate this MU so damn much. But everyone says its even. This is my personal bad MU for kit.
Cage: 6-4
Kano: I had it 6-4, but I've never played it at high level play. I know Mr. Mileena preaches this is 7-3.
Kenshi: lbsh, its only 2-8 against pig.
Mileena: 6-4. I will get to this later in the post.
Quan: AT LEAST 6-4
Raiden: 5-5
Rain:6-4
Reptile: 5-5 lol
Sektor: 5-5. I've been studying this MU a lot lately
Sonya: 5-5 but it COULD Possibly be in kits favor. I know death is starting to hate this MU a bit lol. Me and him are gonna bang this MU out at nec
Stryker: this is another one of my personal bad MUs. I hate this match. But everyone says its 6-4 now.
Now for kitana against mileena. This used to be a bad MU back in the day, then we figured out the MU, then it became 5-5. But in today's metagame and the playstyles of both characters, I honestly feel like kitana wins. Yes, kitana can't throw fans, but she has advantageous MUs in which she can't throw fans. Also, even tho mileena can zone her, the zoning is average and is nothing to fear. Kitana can affords to make a couple mistakes because mileena's punishment (against kitana) Is not that great, whereas Kitana's punishment reaches +40%. Mileena's d4 can be a nuisance, but it is nothing like Sonya's and with a good read, it can be blown up with f21 or jk~fan. Upclose, kitana beats her upclose IMO . She out footsies her for sure. If kitana gets the life lead, she can just sit back and make mileena come to her.
Kitana is a character that gets a majority of her damage through punishment, rather it be counter poking or a unsafe move. Mileena is a very risky character, and that's something kitana loves. One mistake and mileena is eating huge damage.
uh... post it? ^_^I have my numbers, but I don't mind agreeing with Baraka being 7-3, cage 6-4 Kitana. As far as stryker, espio plays it best, and I found tech to fight stryker, it's 6-4 Kitana.
IMO Quan Chi is Kano with a Rune Trap and Kano is 7-3 so I agree.I don't think we should be putting Quan Chi past 6-4. Fundamentally, it might possibly be 7-3, but the rune trap is too big of a factor for us to push the number.
Its 5-5. Offline its much easier to react to fans and assout. Not 6-4 kit. I was kidding lolMost of the high-level Baraka guys seem to be saying it's only 6-4, which says a lot.
The most in Kitana's favor I can see the Sonya match going is 5.5-4.5 Sonya. I really don't give two shits if Death is losing the matchup online. Don't mean to be a dick.
I agree with Mileena being 6-4 in Kitana's favor. It's the same justification I have for Skarlet though. When your character has to take risks to win, it plays into our favor.
it's nothing new, maybe espio and I can record some fights.uh... post it? ^_^
I see. I d1~cutter or 21 Kung Lao's roll on reaction. Good stuff.it's nothing new, maybe espio and I can record some fights.
LOl, just know your roll distance and 2,1, his ex cannot go full screen if you are far screen walking back.
She can trade projectiles, it's hilarious. hard to explain XD
Stryker also gets away with his roll online going unpunished by a d1, then she's at -15 which is annoying ;_;I see. I d1~cutter or 21 Kung Lao's roll on reaction. Good stuff.
If you make a read, you can NJP the roll, but if you see it coming, can't you jump over it and EX Air Fan punish it for a full combo? I will have to test this!Stryker also gets away with his roll online going unpunished by a d1, then she's at -15 which is annoying ;_;
2,1 is the safest form, especially for the ex one.If you make a read, you can NJP the roll, but if you see it coming, can't you jump over it and EX Air Fan punish it for a full combo? I will have to test this!
I will let you know the results when I get time to test it out.2,1 is the safest form, especially for the ex one.
But yeah, please test it.
He's annoying, and the reason kitana players (well most), seem to think it's even or even bad for Kitana is because they don't know how to fight/punish him.
You can. I tested this a while ago. It also works if they wakeup with the baton sweepIf you make a read, you can NJP the roll, but if you see it coming, can't you jump over it and EX Air Fan punish it for a full combo? I will have to test this!
Show me the ways of the classy kitana vs a whack ass rent-a-cop2,1 is the safest form, especially for the ex one.
But yeah, please test it.

are you sure the 4 can hit her? it seems weird, she's ducking and is at a distanceEveryone gets away with stuff online, for example, I cannot punish down 1 on block with standing 4, which is 8 frames etc. Kitana's down 1 is -1 on hit and it's a 1 frame window for the poke, roll toss is -7 on block.
Not saying anything to argue match ups, I'm kind of done doing that. It's not bad for either character, which is all that really matters to me.
Mr. Mileena plays the match up very well and is definitely a much better player than I am, easily. Way better footsies.
It hits mid and there's a 7 frame window to do so. If it's max range, he'd have to dash up and she could probably block, but I can't test this offline ;_;. 7 frames isn't too tight of a window though, but like most cases of punishing down 1, he'd also have to make the read since blockstun and everything.are you sure the 4 can hit her? it seems weird, she's ducking and is at a distance
Im just saying, my sparring partner OZZYGUITAR (I think he said he talked to you at nec) plays scorpion and I have similar issues anti airing..... I just uppercut him now on crossup.It's mostly that her offense isn't that great, you can't jump in on him because of d+1, and he has 1,1,1. Plus I swear his crossup jump punch is better than everyone else's. He just blows up d+1 and d+3. I know this sounds ridiculous but I'm not the only one to notice it. It's either that or Slips is so much better at crossups than anyone else.
its either scorpion has a messed up air hitbox or me, slips, and every other scorpion are thoroughly practiced in the art of jip because we use it in the vortex, id like to know if his air hitbox is different, it was brought up a long time ago but everybody said "its just slips" lolIm just saying, my sparring partner OZZYGUITAR (I think he said he talked to you at nec) plays scorpion and I have similar issues anti airing.....
