Would someone with all the currently-available mobile stuff share their WB account with me? Have read that just signing in and getting the costumes, then signing out will keep that stuff permanently-unlocked on a console.

114 is the best punish string because it's the fastest, but not the most optimal after jump in. You can get like 37% meterless with a jump in with F2. You should try to practice using F2 combos because it really brings his damage up. B14 is really good, too.
Glad I did it before the patch has launched hours later, love my Klassic Kitana. Couldn't get Injustice Scorpion though.

Did NRS make her even more OP?
Good lordy. Kung Jin vs Sub-Zero(grand master) is like 0-10 in Sub's favor lol.
If sub goes full jerk mode and stays full screen behind a clone and chucks iceballs, then Kung is pretty much locked out. If you have 1 bar with Kung and get close enough you can ex bow swing through a clone to keep going forward, but if it's blocked then you just wasted a bar really.
Anyone know if any of Kung Jin's moves get through the clone without meter to keep hitting Sub if you are close enough? Arrows break clone, but the ice blast behind it will freeze you most likely.
Edit: Just hopped into the Kung Lao combo thread on testyourmight.com and had no clue he got mega buffs from the last patch. People are posting TONS of 50%+ combos with him off various starters for 1 meter...
Wow fuck that.

Mileena is hardly OP. Everything she has is super unsafe.
Yeah, I know, but the whole match is a stupid guessing game. Block low, then overhead teleport. Block high, low projectile or ball. It's just tedious.

Low ball is actually a mid. When I learned this I was shocked. Then I lol'd. Then I felt sorry for Mileena players and haven't had much issue since.
Unless... they made it a low in this patch?
Then the nightmares return.
No it's still a mid. Always has been. Her really only mixup that gets me is when they start throwing ex roll around in their strings since that's an overhead.
It doesn't matter who you face, it's a guessing game...
Plus, like it was said before, her 'low' projectile is actually a mid - so she's far easier to out-guess than other characters (Inferno scorp, for example)
Good. I main Kung Lao and feel like I have to work 10x harder than, for example, Kung Jin players to get any damage. I changed to Jax because it was so much easier.

You can poke through the clone with njp, b+1 and f+2 without getting frozen. Unless you get put in the corner the match really isn't too bad.

I thought they were the "Klassic Skin Pack 1" that comes with the Kombat Pack.
rule of thumb: the happy posters are on PS4 (like myself)
The pissed off posters are on PC
Poor XBO, lol

I'll be honest, I play PC and have never had a single crash.

I think I have something running that is minimizing/crashing my games
Yea I had this yesterday. I had to uninstall and then reinstall Jason from the XBO and after installing I had to do a full power down for him to appear in the game again.
What! I swear I always get knocked down when blocking high. My life has been changed.

Same, my only complaint is the netcode.
Same, and MK10.EXE still not being killed after exiting to Windows sometimes.

Yeah its mid so standing block will keep you safe from the kick and roll. And considering most of her decent combo starters are really high on startup its actually quite difficult to get damage with Mileena against a player who knows what to look for.
It got worse after the patch. I always crash eventually if I play longer than an hour.

As someone who doesn't play online very often (and have had few problems we I did) I can say that my only disappointment with the PC version is that we are so far behind the console update cycle. You guys are all sitting on the Tanya patch, and we won't see it until the tuesday she comes out.
And even then, who knows if it will work...
Yep.

Is online down for anyone else?
Thank you for this!
I wish I had known, but I was stuck sitting full screen most of the match trying to advance little by little via run/dash, etc, but he kept me out so damn well.
Edit: Just watched some of those new Kung Lao combos. They didn't involve run...now I'm curious to see if I can execute them. I'll have to experiment, but it probably won't be until later summer. Witcher 3, then Smash Wii U I just got will keep me damn busy for a long while.
I guess I am now a stream monster for MKX going forward.
This happened. Finally starting to improve. Took the crown on KOTH
Next stop: 1000 respect points!
So, I just played a couple matches against one of my friends who uses Bojutsu Kung Jin. I won a grand total of one, out of maybe five or six. I can't even get angry anymore. I just get frustrated and lose the will to play whenever I have to face Kung Jin. He's just got so many resources: he can combo from pretty much everywhere, has amazing range, has low and overhead combo starters, he can even nj2 from half a screen away and hit you (and, of course, combo from there.) You can't make a single mistake against him.
I told him I'm just not gonna bother fighting KJ anymore, but he says he will stop using him. I told him he shouldn't stop using him just because I can't beat him, but he says he will. Now I feel kinda bad.
I have to do the same thing with my Kung Jin. My friends refuse to play him. It deflates them of the willingness to play.
It's strange, because I can play Kung Jin mirrors against other intelligent players using him who can do all his combos, and yet I'll still win. Even when I was using Takeda as my main I had no issues beating Kung Jin's.... I feel he's just so damn one dimensional lol.
If I know him down, I beat out the ex bow swing to burn his meter. If he has no meter I assault his ass hard. I play the neutral game to bait out his NJP, Dive kicks, or just mid range normals to be beat out with my better options at the time. I know how to block his one trick pony main combo, and I can react to the variations generally in time. You HAVE to eat some damage from him, and I'd much rather take an ex over head from back down circle from him, then let him ex bow swing me any day as that leads to 30%+.
You have to be ready to take small punishes on him to get the player to do panic button shit. If you block his back 2 1 4, and he doesn't extend it with a special---throw him. If he extends it with one of his other ex specials, block it, then throw him. He's super quick to being safe off ex's and at least throws will get you the knock down or a tech throw situation to reset the neutral game.
I guess I've never played a Kung Jin as solid as my own to ever worry about the character...I'd play Kung Jin's all day over the scary ass shit that Quan Chi's, Scorpion'S, and Kung Lao's can do.

So yeah. No more invasion boss time wasted for me. Got my 1000 pts trophy and I'm out.
I'm getting MK2 ultra hard flashbacks against the AI now. It's not the 5 hits of armor, it's the SHAMELESS button reading AI code that is full on bullshit.
You jump? Get anti aired.
You block? Get thrown.
You duck? Eat a mid or overhead.
You backdash? Eat a projectile before you can block.
You teleport? Eat an armored attack or watch Goro auto correct and land on your new location with a stomp.
The worst thing is, the AI does this right away. No learning patterns or adapting. Just straight up cheese.
Thanks NRS for this completely pointless mode. Back to the tower. At least there not every fight is recorded as a loss on the W/L record.

I was playing a Kung Jin yesterday (as Takeeeda) and all he did was fjp 111. I couldn't figure out anything to do against it except stand there and block. I'll be the first to admit how mediocre I am at this game (my win/loss is right around 50%), but the (vertical) range on that fjp is nuts.

Someone told me to cheese him out with Jacqui. Gonna try it and report my results soon. Not expecting good news.
Wish they would hurry up with Xbox One patch.....
This.
It kind of sucks that the Kold War Pack is up now, but the patch isn't.
Hey guys, was thinking to try to max all factions.But according to the internets, I'm gonna loose the Grandmaster icon when I switch factions. Grrr, the koins just started rolling in too!!!!
I did my best work against him. I did moderate damage and lasted 18 seconds. Normally I get my arse kicked in less than 10 seconds.

Yes, you lose access to all the Kombat Kard components associated with that Faction when you leave.
However, the Dragon King Kombat Kard set shames every other configuration for Koin farming and you get that for maxing all 5 factions (as well as a trophy/achievement).
1700 Koins / faction kill in card bonus alone.
