Morty is weak

[Dedprice]

not even a morty main. just thought id feed back that aside from dair, morty has no kills (up-air CAN kill if lucky but hits as hard as his hammer... soft
his knockout power should really be buffed. even in 100's morty cant kill you unless your actually off the stage or he lands dair

His ground game needs more work than his aerial game, imo.

1.) Once his charged blast goes on cooldown, his neutral and up attacks do zero knockback, rendering two of his moves fairly useless in CQC.

2.) His side attack doesn’t connect all the way through, whip being a weird case, which forces him to play more of an aerial game.

3.) His grenades mitigate 1.), but they also have a cooldown, and there’s a delay in the throw. Also easy to be away from.

4.) I haven’t used down attack enough to see the usefulness it might have, but that’s also because I haven’t found many scenarios where it would be a viable move, aside from covering ledge.

Because of these flaws, he’s encouraged to play more of an aerial game, which is fairly subpar. Down air is his main saving grace.

I'm super salty they made mortys move-set so.. Disgustingly spammy..
Literally can't seem to put together a single combo that doesn't involve a hammerspin or a jump attack
It's like they're forcing you to fight by doing nothing but jumping up and swinging down~ which is definitely *not* fun.

Throw grenade, rock wall; ground combo minus hammer: snake shot in the air proceeded with his freakin' scrub brush is all I can pull off. And it still doesn't ring anyone out~ Had a few games where I was in the 370+ damage range but not one K.O.
However, the plumbus is freakin' hilarious.
Every time I get agitated for not being able to ring someone out, I jus pull out dat baby + start cleanin'; people be flying everywhere.

Its what i think too morty need one buff.

Lol, both his spike and upair are pretty strong killing moves. He's got tons of utility, saving moves, he's hard to kill, he's got tons of projectiles and area denial. Not S tier but definitely a strong pick and git gud issue.
Seriously I've been doing tons of spike kills on 20 dmg already.

[Trichouette]

he's labelled as an "horizontal" character, he can go pretty far off stage just to finish you off.

(I wish they would fix the grenade toss though... that thing's bugged as f)

I've seen some god-like Morty players in the 20K-50K rank range, but most Morty's are still learning him. I think he has a very good ground game with op hitbox (I noticed they're actually further than his body/arms show, my guess is to keep up with other characters insane hitboxes), and, especially when his full moveset is used, he has insane damage & spike potential.
Morty is in a very good spot, and you'll see increasingly good/god-like Morty's in the coming weeks.
It's not right and too premature to claim he's weak.

Morty is not weak, but designed differently than the other characters, he only have 2 specials mainly used to deal damage (normal, ground side) and the only one of them that you can use in the air is too hard to land when in air. If you are playing Morty and in air, you will need to play using the normal hits to deal damage (excluding the bullets if the snakes under cooldown).

i fling grenades in each direction, get my plumbus charged and then try to get a couple weaknesses planted - i shoot the grenades and then start doing bunny hops with hatchet side attacks to push them to the edges of the map.

keep in mind his main ability is not working, they disabled it.
and one of his perks doesnt work as much as a result ( its stilla grenade, i htink ) '
the first perk doesn tmention you lose attack power to spin as the hammer
and the third one just makes the debuffs kast loinger ( which aint bad )for plumbus


dair is the best shot hes got atm, sdave point being a close second if timed roperly with your partner

[clnzr]

BUFF MORTYYYY

[Goust]

He is especially weak when you cannot play at all because the main menu hates you when you are in asia, but have high speed fiber internet connection

That does help alot~ never actually read the patch notes, which would probably have saved me quite a few embarrassing matches
"Extra fleeb juice" Doesn't help with explaining anything, lol

[Dirty Mike]

hes subpar at best

Actually his hammer spin is probably his worst attack generally (for dueling). You should be using whip pretty much exclusively for that.
