MKX.
I mean, Captain cold is winning majors right now. Bane and Green Arrow are placing.. I think we're actually in a pretty hype place as far as characters are comcernedinj2 is superior to mk9, of course.
but is it your favorite nrs game?
imo mk9 was more fun to watch and way more hype.
seeing badams, supes, aqumans in inj2 isnt so amazing or hype to me.
i just watched esl eu online and the players still counterpick with badam a lot lol.
i miss the drama as well, do you remember the 4 vs 4 (uk against usa) at evo 2012? haha that was hype as fuck (although all the usa team used kabal LMFAOO)
BTW cant find that event on yt, would rewatch, as well gga vs uk were dizzy ocv,d them. :O
oh mann, so much storys
This is basically the only real answer. Objectively there's really no argument.Are there any choices besides
A: Injustice 2
B: an inferior game that I have nostalgia for
not sure what u mean?This is basically the only real answer. Objectively there's really no argument.
Doesn't IJ2 leans heavily towards Zoning? Nor did IJ1? Nothing against Zoning, but the number of non-Zoning or non-defensive characters is very small in IJ2, and in MKX you could also Zone, even with all of the Rushdown in it. Even in MK9, according to @PND_Ketchup IIRC, was more offense focused as even the characters who could Zone couldn't win just by Zoning alone, which is pretty much the case for MKX as well.If MKX had no run/stamina and there was no variations and they just focused on making solid and complete characters then I think it would be my favorite. But I2 is my favorite because you can play whatever type of character and use them, whereas MKX was heavily tilted towards offense.
The only characters with really powerful zoning are Doctor Fate and Deadshot. A lot of characters have zoning capabilities but Fate and Deadshot are the only ones who can legitimately zone the entirety of a match to win, and even that is matchup specific. In MKX, zoning wasn't really a thing. Even with Quan Chi and Predator, they couldn't win off zoning. Fate and Deadshot actually allow people who want to use zoning to win. Even though Deadshot also has 50/50s, he still has strong zoning.Doesn't IJ2 leans heavily towards Zoning? Nor did IJ1?

I mean, sure? But the question posed is inherently subjective. The "best" game, in this circumstance, depends on your personal standards. If the roster of the game is important enough to me that it deeply affects how I feel about the game, that doesn't make it inferior or nostalgic. It just means that I find that particular game more appealing for those reasons. What "objectively" makes a good fighter wasn't really the question, so it's not the only "real" answer.This is basically the only real answer. Objectively there's really no argument.
nice!By the winning poll votes and by what most people are saying just made me look for some mk9 videos on YouTube lol.
Thanks man. Yea alot of posters here seem confused as to what "the best nrs game" really means. Obviously the newer ones will be more balanced, have better online etc. but they forget about gameplay, funner, character types. It's all personal preference really so there's always going to be debating. Some will argue that inj2 is the best because of balance, I'll argue that to me mkx was the best because you could move without your character feeling like he has the Zelda ocarina of time iron boots on.nice!
omg so much hype matches, watch some evo top 8 from 2011-2013
@Eddy Wang @xKhaoTik @Insuperable
guys how about we make an mk9 legacy thread with all the hype and best matches Compilation?
would be nice to educate all this newer tym members ;D
Lmao! Never heard that one on INJ2 movement, but I lost it because I actually know what you mean since Ocarina of time is one of my favorite games of all time.Some will argue that inj2 is the best because of balance, I'll argue that to me mkx was the best because you could move without your character feeling like he has the Zelda ocarina of time iron boots on.
