I think Kung Lao also lacks a more reliable overhead attack outside of his hat teleport. I think his b321 has an overhead but the animation is way too long for normal attack strings; hat teleport is also nice when you have the ability to use it midair but it can get predictable if used too much, unless you amplify and wait for a punish.
But how can you get around the Air Teleport moves, I usually have trouble dealing with that sort of bs that hits me outta nowhere. Like should I dash forward away from it or what? It always hits me with a grab
I know this is a year old but crouch when you see the throw. You can either down 2 for an uppercut and combo or down 1 quick jab and combo off that. You won't do much damage with a down 1 jab but it's a lot safer
You're the pro but I disagree with kotal being a bad matchup for one reason, his buzz saw. That variation with air tele gets a lot of folk. Maybe not pros, but I'm never afraid of a kotal because they can't get in. Tiger? Not afraid of it. If he goes nuts on the damage buffs of course but otherwise kotal can actually get spaced out. No B2, no, F1, no F2, no F3, just all of kotals advancing buttons get stuffed with buzz saw. Robo, frost, shang, liu, cetrion, fujin, lady female hitboxes in general, lao struggles .
I don't need a guide to counter Kung Lao, I need a 30 minute guide on just how to counter Buzz Saw. I swear you need a phd to get around that shit! (Or just pick Jade, Geras, or Shang Tsung w/ Shake to immediately make the move irrelevant...)
To counter Buzzsaw (at least the normal move, where they hold the projectile steady and don’t move it) after they Use F1 3 or whatever the string, just micro dash and flawless block. If your character doesn’t have a fast enough button to punish from there just use F/B U2 or u3. When they start moving the hat and you see it due to moving forward, buttons that get snuffed by the buzzsaw potentially become doable. For an example when using kabal in a scenario where buzzsaw isn’t being moved. Kabals projectile and D4 get snuffed out, but when the Kung Lao player moves the buzzsaw to them self, Kabals moves beat out Kung Lao due to being able to reach.
The detail in which Rewind deconstructs this character is mind-boggling. Kung Lao stocks falling like never before!
I wish I had this guide available during last season of Kombat League. It would have mitigated a lot of frustration.
6:22 Actually the hat after this string can be from -14 to -11, so a lot of characters can punish it even on block
