I was curious to see why others do play him so I made this trendy thread. Even if its just for casuals or in tournament play.
Before MK9 I haven't played any MK since the sega genesis and that was years ago. I played only Kung Lao and Kabal during that time. Keep in mind I was only around 4 or 5 so I had no idea what the fuck I was doing. I haven't touched a fighting game since then besides the Subzero MK for the PS and DOA4. I only played DOA4 for a few days. I strictly played RPGs and Shooters for a while, I never saw the point in fighters until recently.
Kung Lao and Raiden were the first 2 characters I picked up. Kung lao was because I played him a long time ago. I played Raiden because I had a fear of lightning growing up but I love it now, plus I have a thing for those rice hats. I did notice and tried to pick up kabal but I didn't understand fighting games at the time so I decided to not pick him up.
After a month of getting the whole scene I wanted to pick up a new character so I posted in this character roll thread. I was given kabal, sonya and quan chi I think. I decided to go with kabal. I did have Tom's living guide so I was reading stuff off of there. At this time I didn't know he was as good as he was. A few offline buddies suggest I watch videos of recent kabals like Reo. After the first video, I fell in love. I watched tons of videos by Master D, Reo and Erik Warda. I pretty much learned kabal by those videos and frame data, that's it lol.
It has been a long and bumpy road to get where I am now. I played pad at first but FlipinFlava was selling his hitbox so he offered me to try and see if I would want to get into it. I loved the technicality of it so I decided to go with it. Anyone that played with me online and offline can say how much I struggled but I'm not afraid to call myself a kabal main now :]
I wrote too fucking much, damn adderall lmao
