You must not have played SF6 or SF5 for that matter. I mean this isn't new.

I will say wake up combos from Shao are some of the most frustrating things to get hit by in this game.

Wake up EX flying knee (mashed), axe chop, 1 2 punch, double flying knee into the corner setup, overhead, uppercut, stomp overhead, overhead, 2 2 EX knee, axe chop, 1 punch into command grab. 64% damage. W.

Block, full combo punish. W.

This game is much MUCH less scrubby than MK11. Clown show with KB's (easy 30% from 2 uppercuts), pokes into block > grab, regenerating meter and breakaways - the worst defensive mechanic ever.

This game is not a pokefest like MK11, not even close.

You're right but in MK11 at least you knew when someone is minus on block, it's your turn. MK1 is an absolute chaos, you are -7 on block, go for d1, your turn again. -4 or -5 feels like heavy plus (the least minus string Nitara has is 124 and it's -3, 99% was my turn again when executed). Add ambush kameos and you'll never let block if you can't armor through, expect high to duck or a gap in the string.

Just look at Johnny Cage players, you fuzzy block everything, even upblock his overheads, 6 frame d1, his turn again and the pressure goes on. Next time you block the following d1 to get your turn, expect some throws. And now they added Quan Chi as a cannon fodder for him, Never saw worse normal start ups in MK11/MK1 combined. 8 frames s1, 12 frames s2 (half the roster have faster mids than his s2), His d1 is like 10 frames? And is -10 on block (I need to check this one again in the movelist). You want to get away from JC, here comes the yolo 8 frames shadow kick which is hard to react online.

Go in the tutorial, don't know the precise section, probably offensive pressure (you'll get to play Sub-Zero and Li Mei in that cave stage), the game is telling you, do this string which is -7 on block, you are technically safe, and then hit d1 to interrupt opponents move and take the turn back. It's because, your opponent wants you to punish with his fastest move which is s1, 99% of the roster is a 7 frame and it's a high which whiffs or isn't even in his active frames. That's some serious BS mechanic and stop defending this game like an idiotic shill.

Shin jabs = the new, universal "meta" of all NRS and Capcom fighting games. As long as you can press down on the directional stick/pad and then mash the light punch (or alike) button, you become instantly "competitive". In SF6, you open the door for 50%+ scruboes; in NRS games, you snuff any attack the opponent can throw out.

>suddenly realises how throwing a magical projectile is objectively a more 'realistic' martial art technique than punching at an opponent's shin bone is
