Re: Figured out why everyone is getting KOed so easily.

Magnetic punches, healthregen bugg and blockbreak spam/ unresponsive slips makes me sad atm. I have had some good and fun fights but majority is not enjoyable at all for me.

Just attack the body bro. I’m pretty sure that will help you tremendously 👍

unfortanatly not when someone is just walking you down. Which is still possible.

It is at first, but I guess I’m one of the only few that know how to negate it. Because I’m giving you the advice you need and people seem to be ignoring it.

It really isn’t. They can’t just walk you down with their block up anymore, they have to strike to enter your range (usually with a jab or double jab). This makes counter fighting even more effective because jabs are so easy to L1 lunge. Also, making them miss or hit the block with the strikes allows you to plant your feet and throw a three piece with a speed advantage x2.

Not to mention the evasive methods combined with the added drain of constant strikes to enter range has made stamina sapping and outside fightingthe dominant form of play.

Most players in quick match have actually caught on to it now. It makes leading a very risky endeavor. So again, this sentiment is all user error.

Rear Elbow has been money for me against body spammers.

Elbows are always inconsistent for me and i don't trust them to land.

Re: Figured out why everyone is getting KOed so easily.

I'm a little torn about this issue. On one hand it really gives an advantage to the person who manages to score a rock. This makes the other fighter feel danger and they need to actively work on recovery. On the other hand it gives too much advantage once the person rocks you. All the player has to do is throw constant combinations to your head without any repercussion or thought to eventually get the KO/TKO.

I'm actually thinking that maybe block needs to be buffed. There is currently no incentive to mix up strikes bc block is so weak now. You are really forced to use headmovemet which is really risky(as it should be). Right now a person can come out and blitz your head with no thought bc of how risky the defensive options are. If that's addressed than I would like to keep the regen like it is.

There’s a guy on Xbox that use a simple strategy that works a lot because of the combo speed... he choose a wrestler with heavy quick hands... than just stay in outside baiting you... than if u start coming foward he will leg kick you... if u close the distance he will do a combo hooks so fast that u even have time to sway(u are coming foward to him) if u stay in a longer distance he will head kick you... sounds a really easy I theory... but in practice it’s a *#*@#*# his nick is “AC MILAN” he already beat a lot of top 100 guys doing this s$*#*

Stationary lead uppercuts will starch anyone throwing more than one hook to the body if you have good reflexes. The uppercut should be one of your main punches against these guys. For example, I mainly throw hooks at the end of combos but against these guys I will throw more uppercuts in general in case I catch them at the right time.

When they excessively back sway I will either gain a small point advantage and make them come to me or lose the round. They can still back sway but it’s easier to catch them when they’re focused on being offensive to win the round. Be careful though because they will likely go back to being very passive if they suspect they have a point lead on you.

I also elect to run them down with straight punches if they’re close to the cage. Then crack them with body punches.

Yh this. I really wish they would increase the range a bit on those elbows. Opponent can be right in your face and it whiffs.

Thanks man. I literally got matched agaisnt the same guy 6 times yesterday. My mark hunt vs his Alistair.

I started timing his body jab with uppercuts but it just seemed like it didnt matter with the backsway making my jab miss.

Rear elbow doesn't anymore after patch. You just have to time it right and it's extremely OP against guys coming right in your face.

Re: Figured out why everyone is getting KOed so easily.

I hope it doesnt go back to prepatch.

Maybe a bit more forgiving then currently but the health regen bug has given me a taste of how great this game can be

Same here but don't count on that with the "competitive" players like Kenetic pounding their fists on desks because they're not as competitive anymore.
