Shadow Ninja 64 posted:Off of various normals or strings (2, 3, f23, probably some others) you can do: I'm still learning how to cancel moves, any tips on learning that? I really would like to get better with Joker, I love playing Doomsday but I'm looking for a third character that's not Grundy/Doomsday and I just love the Joker's moveset.

In the mentioned '32 (1 or 2 hits) XX bf2' you need to finish the bf2 input before the last hit of the 32 string hits. You need to make sure that you only push 3 once and 2 once, if you do 322 xx bf2, the bf2 will not come out. Basically, precise inputs within the time frame.

Prism posted:Basically, who can I take it slow with and then capitalize on openings left to me with short strings? Catwoman! Really! I can't pull off a combo above 30%, and I've been doing really well. She's really fast, so you're able to punish more things than a lot of other characters can. Just block and hit back until you're comfortable with branching out into more complicated stuff. E ^^^ Watching that stream. Best part is when the commentator says "Someone in that crowd is cursing over there. Prolly fuckin' Tom Brady again." The Duchess Smackarse fucked around with this message at 17:34 on May 19, 2013 |

Oh, I thought it had something to do with the thing that burns meter to bounce cancel, but the "XX" is something else. It's all about input timing, thanks!

Nah, you're thinking of 'bounce cancelling'. The notation for that would be something like DF-MB or DB-MB. Also, you can totally bounce cancel with DF/DB instead of that weird dash, wait, meterburn notation that's written in the game and it made bounce cancelling a thing I could actually do now.

Thank God, that's what was confusing me, I saw the xx and saw it was cancel and associated it with that, so I was trying to do these combo strings and it was just weird and it felt weird, totally awesome that it was cleared up for me.

Are the names backwards right now? I've only ever seen Jailhouse play Cyborg.

From the KombatNetwork stream chat, Paulo says:quote:Pakostevens: ds changes are -9 on low gunshot (from -4), slightly less falling after ags, less chip on lgs, ss isn't punishable on hit anymore its +4 now Presumably this is in the Batgirl patch. Full patch notes are expected to be released Monday night.

Lurdiak posted:Unless they replace his trait with a suicide button, Deathstroke's not in any danger of becoming unviable. It's more that they aren't just nerfing things and are also buffing the characters. MK9 had a lot of characters disappear from the tourney scene due to characters only getting nerfs. That suicide button would be great for mind games if you could cancel it.

Why the hell would they buff the sword spin? Was Boon somehow offended that people were actually able to get in on Deathstroke?

It only mentions on hit, not on block. Don't get hit and you'll probably still be able to punish.

Psycho crusher punish from 3/4 screen on both standing and low gun shots. Also in this patch: Superman's breath to be changed to -1 on block Sinestro's trait loads 35% faster and d,f+2 to hit mid and recover at -11F

AnonSpore posted:Did you mean to quote someone else...? No. Deathstroke's spin was like a self tech trap where if you managed to land a hit with it, pushing a button afterward meant you were going to eat something. The issue wasn't never being hit, or not being able to punish it. The problem was there was no reason to use it for DS players. Even now with the "+4" it'll just make everyone return to that weird neutral state that JMCrofts talked about.

It's the best reversal he's got.

I'm still not seeing how that's relevant to my post, which was a response to another poster misinterpreting safe on hit as safe on block.
