I hate the Icon fighters

Feels like I'm always at a huge disadvantage playing against them, might as well use them, I've faced 5 Wanderlei's in a row.

I think Wandy’s bottom game is his only weakness.

Yeah Wandy doesn't even feel like Wandy. Just feels like a CAF - really dumb idea

Apparently Wanderlei Silva is the greatest fighter of all time

Re: I hate the Icon fighters

I've just started using Wanderlei any time I play MW because I'm most likely going to come up against him anyway. I don't see the point in making myself work harder to beat someone when I'm using a lesser fighter and end up losing against someone I should beat or having to struggle if I do win.

Re: I hate the Icon fighters

Love the fighters. Hate the stats.

Kimbos aiight, striking is a bit friendly.
But they all have weird buffs to areas they shouldn't and are just generally overrated.

Even my boy Cro Cop rockin' dat 94 clinch throws and 90 TD like the Olympic Freestyle Wrassler he is..

Then there's Wandy and Tito, who seem to have got to do their own stats with the only rule being "No flat out 100's"

Again, really awesome fighter additions though.
But aside from Cro Cop and Kimbo, I can't use them because as someone mentioned and nailed above. Their stats make them feel like a bad CAF.

Hate the icon fighters. If they aren't going to buff other icons like Liddell, Griffin, Shogun, Minotauro, BJ PENN then wtf is the point!

Re: I hate the Icon fighters

Out of all the icons, Wand's are the most ridiculous. 94 striking, like 97,98 power and speed, 96 health! 93 stamina on top. He's a tank ha.

The rest of the icons I'm okay with their stats. But I don't know why they went so crazy with Silva's. Yeah I get he was great in his prime but his stats being so high completely ruined the balance of the middleweight division. He def needs a nerf.

His only weakness is his ground game (which is still an 89 overall hah). But I use jacare souza and just get him to the ground and he's actually easily dominated and submitted (if you know what you're doing on the ground and have a fighter like souza whose ground stats are amazing).

He's been my only weapon against the parade of Silva users. Hah.
