Thoughts On Latest Patch (MK1)

Misc

Okay so I haven't played the game yet to really feel the differences but I did read the patch notes so I'll just give my opinion on the whole matter

As a person who doesn't play KL, but isn't too bad at the game I would think, and as someone who plays the game, I think the patch wasn't too bad? Don't get me wrong seeing sektors nerfs is a bit extreme but there's better characters than sektor imo so this doesn't affect me none. Though I personally think they really really REALLY need to lower the damage scaling on Sub Zero's ice ground love (the one where it slows them down kinda). The fact that you can do 25 hits and get like 25-30 percent max with the move in a combo is crazy, imo they should either limit the amount of times you can do it in a combo, or just get rid of the move entirely (do NOT get at my neck for these suggestions plz, I'm trying my best😭). And they need to put a middle ground with his damage, not too bad, and can be decent.

ATM I'm learning some scorpion combos, I wouldn't say he would need a nerf, more like a buff kinda, since his chain spin move does 2 bar for enhanced for some reason, I feel they should change that to 1 bar normally, but we can have a option to extend the move with our bar, so one bar enhanced more damage ofc, enhancing it again would make the move longer, and i think you get the rest from there lol. And honestly I think he (along with sub zero) should get a new move or 2, more so scorpion because his move set includes no mixup's really with the exception of Ferra's mix ups and guessing games.

Imo Ghostface? He seems like a good character but I think he might need a slight nerf, haven't played against him too much to know a whole lot lol.

Okay welp, rant over. Opinions are welcome so you can use this post as a talk for this patch if you want lol. But hope these changes are maybe something you guys want to.
