Injustice: Gods Among Us; New Game by NetherRealm Studios

Maximilian reviews Injustice:

Is Captain Marvel any good?

Dude, she is like a goddamned can opener, with tons of ways to convert. Her trait lets you get free damage tacked on to even the smallest of hits. The whip is a great STFU option at midrange, and oh my god that jump arc is beautiful.

Sinestro is negative as fuck on a lot of his moves for a good reason.

I think it’s a little too early to tell with him. He does good damage and has a nice mixup game. His command throws are awesome, since you can combo off of them if you meter burn them.

so deathstroke is scrub friendly?, found my main :coffee:

Fireball “spam” is netting wins. If people keep dying to it, they’re smart for abusing it.

Thanks man, I would really appreciate that. I believe the whole WBID thing was down yesterday so that might be it.

Except interactables are unblockable and can only be used “once” per match, are easily avoidable by backdashing, jumping, and using MBDCs.

Nothing you just said bore any relation to what I wrote.

I haven’t offered you a ‘sentiment’. I haven’t given you any opinion on what skill is. I didn’t give you my opinion on Deathstroke or what tier he is. I didn’t offer an opinion on spammable projectiles or people who use them. I didn’t offer an opinion on anything. Your nonsense Sirlian lecture on what ‘playing to win’ is doesn’t relate to me or anything I said.

I made a simple offhand comment - a factual observation as to why there are so many Deathstrokes online.

Here it is again.

Deathstroke is very easy to win with against 90% of low level players online. His moves are easy to execute, easy to spam and require little skill to use and he will guarantee anyone with 5 minutes of practice a bunch of easy wins. That is why he is so popular online right now.

That’s it. A simple off-hand comment on why the servers are full of Deathstrokes.

It didn’t even necessitate a response.

You SRK clones really are worse than scrubs. You are so bitter, so full of ignorant bile and hatred you can’t even read what’s actually there without bursting into the same stupid sound-bites about scrubs like some Pavlovian mutant.

Kudos for highlighting why SRK has its reputation.

Grundy
Sinestro

Are the only two characters I actually have fun while playing.

This dial a combo stuff still kills me when combined with the button layout and I’ve been playing all day.

edit: also hawkgirl seems a bit weak, but the flight is amazing. Aquaman is legit

Hey guys any new infinites? :smiley:

What are the biggest complaints about the game so far?

^ Joined 20 days ago, it makes sense now.

I really like cat woman’s power it seems pretty dynamic because, I feel like you wouldn’t want to sit on it like a weak chun li super in 3s. Maybe your opponent would have to play defensive, opening options for her. I’m not sure what the frame data is like, but at least you can use it to end your combos.

Can we get an Injustice sub forum please.

Grundy is great fun.

Anybody have a particularly good way to combo into chain throw with him?

I might have to take a break watching/playing SFxT & AE and just play this game when it gets released in Europe, played the demo and actually enjoyed it

This game is fun i like Killer Frost

Made people salty IRL using Killer Frost on day 1, first time playing her, used her like a zoning character; netted wins, got called a spamming cheater, won some money matches after people said I couldn’t win without her (used Wonder Woman, who I practiced with in the demo).

Overall a good time.

A lot of back, forward moves become HCF instead (like Batman’s slide). I went back to MK notation.

Doomsday is still incredibly ass. Went from being one of my most hype characters, to the biggest let down. Whoever has the strategy guide I’d love to know what they have for him there.

I agree with the Deathstroke comments. Almost everybody I fight just spams bullets with him. Dunno if I can say that negatively though, it’s a legit strategy lol. To be honest, when I played some KotH last night, most matches degenerated into full screen fireball wars, with characters with fast projectiles winning. Saw a LOT of Joker’s being played like fucking Wesker.

Speaking of which, how often should I be shooting arrows with Green Arrow? The rest of his moves and combos seem…shitty.

I think today I am going to fuck with Raven (dat Ermac vibe), Black Adam (dat Bison stomp), and I would love to learn to not suck with Grundy.

Fuck combo videos, I am waiting for people to do full character breakdown vids as well lol.

AND I AM STILL POSITIVE: For some reason really quick QCB seems to come out as QCF. I can’t tell you the number of times I go to do batman’s horizontal grapple, and get the air one instead, and there is no fucking way I am messing up QCB and QCF. I am wondering if this is related to either negative edge or the SF/MK notations and commands.

You called something “cheap” and only scrubs label things “cheap”. The word has a negative connotation that should never be applied to legitimate tactics.

People of all levels of skill call things cheap on and off stream. I think you’re making a bigger deal out of what he said than necessary.

The moment that you call something cheap, or label any tactic as spaming you are showing your scrub colors to the world, specially if you consider that those cheap tactics of spaming moves are done by low level players.

scrub :coffee:

That is because even people with high skill on fg’s can still have traces of scrub mentality.
