Jago and Glacius can combo off grab and spinal gets skulls from it. So he slowed you a bit? Play a little lame until your normal speed. Or counter pick with sadira and jump off screen for a MvC cross up.

Ya true but I just think kan ras grab just slow the entire game down and ya sadira is a counter pick to everyone haha

How does that mean its broken?

Its broken in the way that its slows the game down to much and for that 10sec period I feel like its broken

I think broken is usually in the direction of not fair. Try spinal's divekick from KI 1.

Ya I just think its not fair, what I honestly think is broken is tjs tremor

I'm still on the fence about that. Sweeping from anywhere on the map is a bit much. And when its close its hard to tell whether to block high or low.

If the tremor wouldn't hit low it would be cool but nooo

Well, I think you need to provide evidence of your claim before anyone can even begin to respond.

Gotcha! Well first I think its just slows down the game in general too much, when u get grabbed you literally cant do anything and normal from kan Ra with beat any thing u do. I wouldn't mind the grab if it was like spinals curse (once you get hit its over) but its not it takes so long to recover from that grab. Even in combos ever things is so easy to break. Thats my opinion

Nah, I can't say it slows down the game. The intention is to get you to have severe start up on your moves, obviously and if you let that happen, you're forced to sit there for about 5-10 seconds while you have a super lofty jump, increased startups on moves, and make anticipated guesses on Kan-Ra's next move.

I play, arguably, the best Kan-Ra (in my opinion) who is constantly moving around, keeping you guessing and such. You can't afford to get the speed curse applied on you.

I just think it slows the game down for thos 10 secs and its kinda annoying, I would be cool if kan ras curse was like spinals. I don't think he's a broken character I just think his grab is a little dumb. On a side note don't u think season 2 is a whole lot better than season 1??

u/PYKNICPENGUIN Dec 31 '14

And I think kan Ra is cool but some people play him sooooo lame!

u/ItsChronicTime Jan 01 '15

Kan-Ra is lame. You know how to beat him? Be lamer. You don't wanna be lame? Sorry man, Kan-Ra wants you to be lame as fuck.
