Yeah, I haven't posted in a while. I was busy trying to beat Broken Age. Apparently getting older did nothing to stop me from sucking real bad at adventure games. But I have been plugging away making videos here and there. Actually, right after bitching about how annoying run-cancel combos with D'Vorah were I decided to try and see what run-cancel combos were like for A-List Johnny Cage. Basically, they suck.

I just don't see the point really. He gets less damage than Stunt Double. He doesn't need to run-cancel to keep his strings safe since they're already safe. There's literally only one relevant string that he has that can be punished and it's only by Tempest Kung Lao burning meter. So I guess in that one matchup... no it's still worse than Stunt Double. He can't even run-cancel his fireballs which is the only thing worth using in neutral. Ech.

I had to redo Ermac. They nerfed the falling damage from Tele-Hold so that it scales so there are better combos to be done. Not much else to be said here. I also decided to jump on the Jason bandwagon since he was just released.

Jason seems really cool, especially his Relentless/Unstoppable variations. He has lots of good hitconfirms that have tons of range, good damage, and great command grabs. His corner carry is ridiculous. Most of his BnBs go more than half a screen. Is he actually a good character? I have no idea, but he definitely doesn't feel like filler. If the rest of the DLC characters can maintain this level of quality, I'll be extremely happy with my Kombat Pass.

I should probably get around to playing story mode.
