A couple of things and thoughts (obviously, I may be wrong and/or things can be changed):
get over yourself
i don't think you can break throws if you're in hitstun though, right?
well come on people think he'll have a teleport in all of his variations? nrs is showing they learned their lesson by pinning his teleport down to 1 variation instead of it being something he can always use. even though i feel displacer will be used by 99% of raiden players anyways. could you imagine raiden having a teleport in his trap variation? let's be real here. it's just like sub's ice clone being variation exclusive.
The MB is there. I specifically saw someone mb that grab which is also his throw, what it did when mb was just stop the opponent from falling into the portal and allow quan chi to get in a standing 1/2 which comboed
You cannot tech a throw when in hit stun or you're vulnerable to a punish after they block a move
That makes me very sad.
It's not that easy. You can't just mash and pray. If you do it too soon, it'll lock you out of inputs.
So, you have teleport on 1 character instead of having it on arbitrary number of characters (3 in this case), it's the same as it was in MK1-9. I don't see your point here.
Of course, because Displacer is Raiden. Not worse MMH, and not sparkling Cage wannabe.
Yes, and I think it can be well-rounded character with limited up-close game, some tools to discourage rushdown and some tools to limit zoning, but nothing too good (probably) and nothing really safe. I must admit that it looks like NRS aren't doing such characters, focusing on specialists instead and allowing players to pick up secondaries easier for bad matchups that will inevitably appear when you have a cast of specialist characters.
I can agree with this way to see things. Grandmaster is pretty much MK9 Sub-Zero. If you're saying that we don't need more than 1 MK9 Sub-Zero, more than 1 MK9 Raiden and the like, I can definitely see your logic here.
Depending on the duration of the move, it looks like you have time to choose. I always held block after a special on hit (just my particular muscle memory) in MK9 and I was often accidentally doing enhanced supermans with Raiden when I was trying out MKX yesterday.
Highly disagree with this.
So it's like Melty Blood where you can end a juggle/air combo in a air throw & it can't be broken?
Are you sure on this one? I swear I remember breaking a throw out of a combo. Like block stun always has frames where the enemy can't be grabbed, but on-hit I remember breaking at least 1 throw.
Perhaps, you can tell us what does Ex-Superman do then? It looks fancy and all, but I can't find anything on what it is for.
Ugh... As I've said, it's a different game, so carbon copies aren't exactly what we're getting anyways. So yeah, I expect changes regardless of character. Basic concept that is nowhere near accurate representation of gameplan is probably closest we can get.
As I've said, since grabbing out of juggling (not just any combo) seems to have different animation, it could as well have different properties in this regard.
Sure it wasn't a stagger state similiar to Sub Zero's MK9 B1, 1+2 string?
We're probably talking about b121 here. Eh, not that it matters, but whatever.
Aside from damage, there's spacing differences and advantage changes.
Yeah that's the string I meant lol, been a minute.
It was against a Cassie, so unless she has a recapture I've broken out of an air combo. If it were a stagger I wouldn't bother saying anything since I know those exist.
not sure if this is what you're talking about, but i saw cassie do what looked like an air grab, but it might have been a special move idk.
That's vague but that's better than nothing I guess, thanks.
