    The front kick

    Don't mean to be nitpicky, but I feel that this technique is too effective in the meta.

    I'm talking about the head front kick, which you rarely see in MMA. I feel the accuracy should be tuned down a bit, its currently used as a distance breaker when the technique is actually rarely used that way.

      It’s the new overhand. I can’t count how many times that kick has tracked me during a combo after a major back lunge

        It's because of the new distance applied to strikes. The front kick makes up for a lack of tracking strikes. The L1 hook lunge exists too but it's far too finicky.

          The reason why it's so prominent now is because it's easy to input on your controller unlike before in UFC 3 it was kind of cumbersome .

          If you ask me it does more good than harm.

            It’s thrown when people are either pressing forward or standing still. Footwork and head movement.

              Agreed. Its too strong, too much range, too accurate. Nerf it. #makeknockoutsgreatagain
