Didn't Raiden from Injustice 2 have something where he could essentially freeze his fireball or something?
My first guess is that his fireball is just one big animation, but it'd be a fun twist if he could do more with it. It could be similar to how his Lightning Rod move worked in MK11.
He had a really cool fireball in Injustice 2.
It was a decently fast, spammable high but not winning the zoning war type of move and it was a stance so you could charge/delay the shot and dash out of it. Fully charge was actually unlockable but very long charge.
When you meter burned the charge, it become like a moving Bo' Rai Cho fart cloud that would go from stage end to stage end, if you superman'd the opponent or teleported, you could hit them into it, or use it for block pressure, etc.
But he also had the trait where he could meter both the lightning ball after it was out which would leave a different looking lightning trap which also combo's from strings. So you could like meterburn it to catch someone trying to jump it.
Not the strongest character or best showing from Raiden but very fun to do fireball shenanigans as Raiden in the matchups that allowed for it, 'am I gonna do the fireball or not' or 'oh you wanna just turtle the zoning, hold this setup teleport mixup'
And his Buddha mask was sickkkk
