Noob Saibot Syndrome: Is It A Valid Concept?

I've got this idea of a concept, but I need the Giant Bomb community to help decide and/or figure out if it is truly a valid concept. 
 
It's called "Noob Saibot Syndrome".  While it didn't start with Noob Saibot, it was popularized greatly by him. 
 
The basis of the concept is that a boss character can be easily beaten by a "glitch" in its coding, or even by using one simplistic move.  The character Noob Saibot has been famously known as one of the easiest bosses in history, as all you have to do is spam high punches at him to win.  He does not know how to defend them, and he continually just runs into them. 
 
These instances still exist in games today.  For instance: 

• Street Fighter IV - Seth can easily be beaten (at least on lower difficulties) by spamming Fierce Kicks (aka High Kicks), as they are in a dead range spot for him.
• The Secret Armory of General Knoxx - General Knoxx himself can easily be beaten with a sniper rifle by simply moving to the other side of a set of crates with a tall iron pillar next to it, then shoot him in the head through the open space.  This prevents his lightning attacks to not hit you, but he will also just stand there for a while until moving to your side...in which you just move yourself to the other side and repeat the process.

I believe this is called bad AI

Seems like a valid concept, but the name may need to be changed, I had no idea what you were talking about until I read the post.  (Yes, I do know who Noob Saibot is, just not that you could do that.)

That could possibly be a concept (with a different name though. Naming a concept after a character that a lot of people probably haven't heard of before seems silly). 

How is it that I've been a diehard MK fan since the original and I never knew of this Noob Saibot tactic? Well, this is an interesting concept to say the least, but I think a better name for it would need to be used. Maybe something like Easily Exploited Bosses or something like that.

How about... "Just Try and Hit me... No! Not There!" I think that name would work. I like the concept, though.
 
Or wait, how about just what TheGreatGuero said. But shorter, so it fits nicer. Like, "Exploitable Boss."

"Maybe something like Easily Exploited Bosses or something like that. "

I've heard of Noob Saibot, and I don't know anything.

UMK3 was removed from XBLA though! :(  "

" @AjayRaz:  @jakob187: I dislike fighting games! "

" @jakob187: Noob Saibot's probably the most obscure of the Mortal Kombat ninjas. Rain and Ermac are close seconds, I guess, but it's not ridiculous that a gamer doesn't know who Noob Saibot is.  "

I had no idea it was removed o_o 
 
WTF. I don't even like this game and i'm fucking furious. You can't just remove shit like this. Can people still play/re-download their copies? 
 
Anyway, as for the concept itself i'd have to say no. It's a glitch, it belongs in the same category as falling through the floor, or game crashes. If the developers had put it there on purpose then perhaps, some kind of "secret easy kill" concept or something like that would be necessary. But it's a simple glitch, I don't think it needs to be a concept.

" @ButtonsMcBoomBoom: It's not bad AI though.  It's one single flaw in the AI.  Take on Noob Saibot, and you'll find that anything other than punch spams results in nothing but counters to your moves.  The same goes for Seth.  If you take on General Knoxx any other way, you'll find yourself getting downed on a regular basis.  Other bosses in the past have this same syndrome, yet they've got perfectly fine AI if you don't spam that one particular move.  Bosses in DoA, Tekken, hell...even MOTARO have these small flaws.  The thing is that they aren't glitches, and they COULD be called exploits...but it would seem that this is less of an exploit and more of an instance specifically with bosses. "

I'm not sure that's considered a glitch, I think that's just considered cheese.  Exploiting a flaw in the game mechanics or the enemy AI in order to drastically increase your efficacy is something I would consider as cheese.

Was never aware it had a name.  I just always called it "shoddy game mechanics" or "buggy messes."  
 
For the record though, Noob Saibot was badass.  Ermac was too.

" If you take on General Knoxx any other way, you'll find yourself getting downed on a regular basis."
