The problem for me is that it is a very different game fighting a deathstroke than the rest of the cast and it is boring as fuck. I have to dash in/block for 10 seconds if I want to have a chance at punishing the spamming. Then as soon I as punish, if the deathstroke gets far again and starts spamming, it is the same, slow, boring ass routine all over again.

I'm really enjoying this game. I always love the idea of fighting games, but usually don't end up playing them that much. Injustice just feels much more accessible up front and I feel more motivated to learn it.
I played some matches online last night as Grundy and I fought about 9 player matches in a row against the same Hawkgirl. I found that I'm having a really tough time avoiding Hawkgirl's super. It seems that blocking doesn't work because I still get grabbed and it goes into the super animation. Is jumping the only option to avoid it? When I'm up close as Grundy and Hawkgirl busts out the super, I feel like I react quickly, but I still get caught before my jump can get high enough. Any tips for dealing with this?

They eventually hit the corner and if you hit them with a good enough combo they don't go back to that routine. They're best at fullscreen, but when they see their best position is getting them killed once you gain the life lead then they'd be an idiot to keep going for spam. Stick to it and stay on that ass. Once you land one combo they gotta find a way to get you back to full screen again before you lose your chances at another anyhow and Stroke is mad punishable on block. Likely they'll try sword spin and then get blown up for a second time on their wakeup if they are a spammer.
Yes. Trait Chaingun from fullscreen is your friend. Also jumping Oa's Rockets.
You can block Hawkgirl's super, but it's basically a slightly slower version of Superman's. It can punish jump-ins, dashes, and slow recoveries from a considerable distance, and be comboed into. Best advice I have is do not jump or dash unsafely when you see a Hawkgirl with full meter, and stick to getting in close to land either a bf3 or a chain grab to punish blocked divekicks/jump-ins.
Same here but if you check it is says "you have redeemed this skin" and will receive it when the game launches.

On reaction, yes. If you do it before and he blocks it, I think he can get a free meterburn Swamp Hands, and from that a 40% combo.

How do you do Supers on that layout?
The more costumes, the better in my opinion.

Rage quits are so much better when they're on the mic. Guy can't grasp the concept of overheads. For someone that uses Deathstroke and changed his gamertag to xxDeathxxStrokexx720 he really hates spamming.

I'm watching a Deathstroke mirror match now lol
It's everything you'd expect.
Now they're raging on the mic because OMG Doomsday is so cheap. Bullets don't stop him!!

In a KOTH lobby, someone said they were going to get me banned from Xbox Live for "cheating" (zoning).
There was a pic a few pages back with a good setup...I believe it was:
1 2 MB Int
3 T st throw
Thats what I use anyways.
You better message him with a sorry message or you're screwed!

Pretty much every rage quit/disparaging remark I have received in this game is from bad Deathstroke players mad that they can't machinegun their way to victory.

I still haven't got mine yet. I tried to log in a little while ago and it said account in use, so hopefully he's in the process of doing them.
The combo that I use is:
LLH b.H(wallbounce) j.H b.MHH [33%]
If you confirm off j.L it does 35%.
I haven't looked up any combos for batman so there may be better ones out there. I just figured this out one day in training mode.
Ya, combos were much easier in MK9. All you had to do in that game was simply dial in the entire combo and it worked with out much fuss.

Raven >>>>>>> Green Lantern
I think it's mainly be3cause my dexterity sucks since I got older. I grew up with SF2, KI, and the MK games in the arcades as a teenager. I was "decent" in SF4 on my ps3, but easily beatable. MK9 was really fluid to me. With this one, I have no idea if I'm doing a wrong button press or my timing is off for the combos. Plus each button press doesn't necessarily correspond to a hit all the time, i.e. some of Harley's moves. I like it well enough, but I can't even get a win in ranked (I just want the yellow costume!). Oh well. I haven't been much for competitive fighters since I hit about 25 anyway lol.

LoL! I find it funny that he is using DS too!!
I just read about that here today. I'll have to check when I get home. Thanks for the reminder though

Hey did you know that there's an achievement/trophy for winning a match as Deathstroke and not missing a shot?
She has some easy damage combos, decent mixups and pressure. She fails on her range of her normals, and being zoned. Her jump arc is very short, and anything she does at range can be punished by pretty much any other ranged character. I think she'll find her place right smack dab in mid of the tiers.

Yes. That is an extremely difficult match-up for GL too.
Yeah, I absolutely hate fighting Ravens. Raven's grab is almost like GL's ring grab on steroids.

I'm loving the match up. The GL that kept spamming that grab last night is free now.

Its waaay better than MK9. Definitely worth it for the game.

Finally got my Arrow skin after contacting them on Facebook.
Still waiting on FS to hook me up with the iOS skins.

Me too haha so excited
I don't see the matchup being super bad. GL still has better pokes. He just can't leave the ground or stay further back than half screen.
No word on a reply for me on fb, it's been a couple hours. I mean I assumed I would get one cause couple guys here said they got one a response almost immediately...
The thing is if he gets further than half screen away it's pretty much game over. And since Raven's grab is pretty great it's super easy for her to get away.
