Tech - Mournful Kitana's insane blockstring in Mournful (up to 31% chip) BIG CHARACTERS ONLY!!

[Ray'sGoodLiquor]

Smh.. So there are now two powerful type of characters in mkx. Those that can 50/50 you to death and those who can frame trap you to death with mb like kitana Lao

Sorcerer Quan has had insane chip frame traps since day 1 but they get severely overshadowed by summoner. I think the 50/50 is still king for the time being.

 

[RunwayMafia]

Might have to try some mournful variant. Played once or twice but main royal storm. occasionally play assassin.

What type of damage can you get mid screed with mournful no meter?

30 ish.

But trust me, you will always have meter due to glaives, shadow kicks, now the newly improved air glaives, and the now newly improved chip pressure.

Mournful has always been very solid and is now certified her best variant.

 

[Doombawkz]

So is this like Shinnok where it can be done anywhere, or is it corner specific?

 

[Scott The Scot]

That's nice. It's good that you guys have this. I'm really glad that no characters got unreasonably fucked over with this patch.

Didn't unbreakable Subby kind of get bent over, lubed and fucked?

Seems kinda dumb. Smacks of MK9 Quan now.

 

[Jimmypotato]

This is awesome, this makes me wanna use Mournful now.

Seems kinda dumb. Smacks of MK9 Quan now.

Seems pretty awesome from where I'm standing.

 

[Kitana Prime]

I might have to play Mournful now.

 

[Madog32]

Finally, we have tech and dirt to discuss! I knew this day would come...

 

[NeoRussell]

Can we call Kitana in Mournful 'Jadana'?I've said before, the beest variation. Screw fans.

This is very useful. I used f112 ex glaive in corner for the same damage but some characters can ex or jump out of it.

With the last hit of 212 pushing them back on block, you can get more mixups too:
-run throw
-run b3
-run 212 again

Highest is 32% I believe

 

[Miss Kanzuki]

No tag for me I was with her Day1 and took her to ComboBreaker. Got bodied by Corn Footwurk Scorpion but whateva lol

Anywhere

 

[WakeUp DP]

She needs it. Still low tier, she needs 16more buffs and so does Kenshi.

 

[WidowPuppy]

Kitana's lookin so sick right now! Well deserved buffs, she's waited long enough. Can't wait to finally see her place in tournaments.

[QUOTE="dribirut, post: 1786207, member: 3180"those who can frame trap you to death with mb like kitana Lao.[/QUOTE]

So like MK9

Although they where not true frame traps but due to MK9 having no invincible back dashes and armour being a rare thing it may as well being

Weird quote fail

 

[armani]

Man we deserve it lol. We stuck around for this long and went thru HELL. We got shat on by the community and we got shat on by characters.

Now we get buffs I think it was well deserved. This next part is not directed to you, but whoever complains about how "dumb" or "op" Kitana is can seriously fuck off

I think it's fitting to change your Up-player Turned Downplayer name to something else bro lol

Remember when scorpion was doing 15% chip? It wasn't fine, right Scorpion haters?

Will Scorpion Haters now hate Kitana too? Because she can do 31% chip?

This is a HUGE Fucking difference. She has to have and use meter to do this where Scorpion only needed stamina which comes back quickly for free by doing nothing.

 

[Bryck Walle]

nah man that jailed for sure I gotta look into how much chip lao got

EDIT: can't find it in the forums anywhere but it was like 25 hits or something like that on block with 3 bars I'll check next time I hope on MK.

Doesn't jail. You can armor before the 4 and before the hat.

 

[Mr. Mileena]

Mournful is so good now

The zoning in this is so good now ;-;

15% bruh!

 

[armani]

15% bruh!

meter has a little more importance than stamina.
this tech is only useful at the end of a round and let's be honest. no one is just going to have 3 bars just chilling in their super meter at the end of a round due to armor and breakers.

 

[FrostGodz]

Shinnok's Trap is far more superior to this, was hoping they would patch his V.V

 

[AK Stormthegates]

That's nice. It's good that you guys have this. I'm really glad that no characters got unreasonably fucked over with this patch.

Go do a hellfire scorpion bnb. I hate that fucking character but damn he got done dirty.
