Phantasmagore Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'm really enjoying playing as D'Vorah. Her 'uppercut' is spectacular. I might main her alongside Reptile and Quan Chi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senex Beast Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 My mains are always Kung Lao,Johnny Cage and Sub-Zero in every game no matter what. I don't play online much anymore for any game though and so my choices never affect me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantasmagore Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Any word on the Predator compatibility patch? I expect it to include buffs for Reptile and a klassic Ermac skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenade. Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Buffing Reptile is a mistake lol. I'm telling people he will be god tier broken if they buff his damage. Just let a character be average, not every character needs to be the best. Coming from a Reptile main too. Like maybe reduce the startup frames on his Forceball or make his Klaw Swipe safer on block if you really want to buff him, just don't touch his damage.

adamthyst Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 I think Reptile is fine, he doesn't need any buffs or nerfs on him. Not sure why he would need any nerfs anyway, because he's still a good character despite not being high tier. I've been begging for D'vorah nerfs, but it's probably because I don't know how to beat her or know her unsafe strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenade. Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 DVorah already got a nerf without really needing one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrisetMaster908 Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Is there a secret fight, and who all is on it? I didn't run into a secret fight. And basically everyone from 9 except Goro and Kenshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamthyst Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 That was certainly one of the harder towers. I haven't ran into so many losses like that from a CPU ever. They literally put the MK9 AI in this lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamthyst Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Why is this OR the Kold War pack not in a Kombat Pack I piad $30 for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenade. Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 Because they said it would only be the 4 packs that include the first 4 DLC characters. Not saying this shouldn't be in but they made it clear what you were buying when you did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamthyst Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 *Censored* I didn't read that. Eh, the Kold War skins look the best of them, but I don't know if I want to blow more of my wallet for them when E3's already planned where I'm going to be broke. I want to know if they'll offer a second season pass though, I know Boon said that's not out of the window completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 For me, it was worth getting the Kold War pack, just because I use that Sub-Zero skin a lot. Still...for $30, I do agree...it should be all-inclusive. Definitely some of the most expensive DLC of all time...especially for what you actually get.

Grenade. Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 The Sub-Zero skin is actually my least favorite. The side view of it, which is all you see while actually playing, doesn't look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantasmagore Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 Those Shinnok buffs though... I can finally main his Necromancer variation. Boneshaper looks marvelous as well, especially with the standing reset. Folks at TYM are pissed off about Reptile's buffs. People are actually considering dropping him. Reptile is perpetually a pocket character for me, I'm co-maining Quan Chi and Shinnok... and my faction is Brotherhood Of Shadows. Totally not going for a gimmick lol.
