As a smoke player, high level kenshi or ashra are the bane of my existence online. They are not many, but the few you do find aren’t gonna give you a turn
The only way I can think about nerfing Kenshi is maybe… 1. Sento does 0 chip damage 2. Sentos time needs to be shortened And/or 3. Sento should not be teleported behind the player after Kenshi does the slash ender
All Kenshi needs to be manageable is for Sento to go away when they get hit on block imo. That's it. The pressure and chip he gets for no risk whatsoever while also rendering you unable to even poke is just too goddamn much.
The scorpion skin was a season 1 invasion reward. It’s cool that they are allowing people who missed those rewards another chance. Sucks it cost crystals though💀
@@shatter1465 no seriously. I don’t hear ANYBODY say “Baraka is so easy to beat after he got nerfed.” MF was and still is a MENACE. Without or without cyrax/stryker lol
Let’s talk about how HARD kenshi is too actually execute this. If he was so easy everyone would use him in tournaments but you don’t see him bcuz he’s a very hard character to master . Yes it annoying when you run into good players but let’s be honest that’s far few between vs sub and scorpion or Johnny
Diff something that you can do that I like to do as scorpion is when you’re kinda close to the opponent you can use back 2 and go into 2-1 essentially making yourself wiff but the recovery time is so quick it it catches everyone off guard. If you’d like I can post a video on my channel so I can show you an example !
you unlock the other variants by going back to the other maps and using the item you unlock from beating the final boss at all those gates. You then unlock them from beating the nodes.
I dunno what your on but Kenshi might be the best designed character in this game, he hardly wins any tournaments and scorp matches up pretty well against him
This is the first time ive seen him this annoyed in this game😂. But I 100% see why though, glad i dropped MK1 because i had a feeling they werent gonna do much to dix the issues with this game
What they need to do is make sinto run out twice as fast when it's on one knee, and make his amp sinto call out 2 bars but make him also be able to combo from his base mode into it with everything except his launcher and knock down
It's also helps make him not need a cameo at all. That takes away one less problem that nether room needs to fix and allows them to focus on every one else
As a kenshi player, personally im going to be pissed if he gets nerfed, i can agree maybe the ghost timer can be decreased a little, but he takes a lot of effort to learn and memorize, i think hes great as he is now
@@Escobarjah38.kenshi is literally the only character that is somewhat difficult to master, being a puppet character. If you lose a kenshi you got outplayed, simple as that
I thought Kombat Kast said you would have to wait for the season to come back around to get the invasions skin and now they want you to spend real money 😬
All due respect I don't think it makes sense complaining about raiden storm cell into cameo when you use scorpion fire spin into cameo. It's literally the same thing. It's the meta, almost every character does unsafe thing into cameo
My guy diff love ya but you gotta block low lol kenshi's usually don't go for the overhead alot. Also have you tried to learn the match up a bit better
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but can't Scorpion get a full combo off of his armored wake up if Mileena is out? Wake up, wait till he pulls the scythe out, then forward kameo into spear?
Not a good comparison imo. Fujin would basically break neutral with skywaka, he could punish from almost full screen and had a low that would cover a lot of ground. Kenshi is not like that
Diff complains a lot about Kenshi but the way he just 2-1 that Kenshi makes his complaints seem less like real character design flaws and more like a 'get gud' situation to me. Of course, Diff is more knowledgeable about the game's technical aspects than me but that gameplay did not make Kenshi seem like the busted unbeatable character Diff's complaints make him out to be. Somebody has to be in the top 1 of characters and there will always be people who complain
what people don't seem to understand is that kenshi takes skill, hes literally the only one out of the higher tiers that requires thinking like, no disrespect to diff but he literally only got caught by the low starter, there was no mix, only lows, its not a kenshi issue, its a Diff issue
Exactly. He might be the most annoying to deal with in some aspects, but you actually need to think before doing stupid stuff. It's not just a bunch of eternal plus frames like Johnny Cage.
You really need to either play matches against a good kenshi to learn or lab (I’m on box if you wanna brawl a bit I have some good pointers) but your making mistakes that are so fixable 😂
Kenshi and ashrah ... Meanwhile ashrah gotta spend a bar on most combos and kenshi has to pull out sento ... Scorpion gets full screen mid full screen low and a teleport... I barely picked up kenshi and am trash w him bc i barely use him but high tier scorpions cant complain
@@shatter1465 im not saying scorpion himself is high tier im saying high skill level scorpions.... I understand that was poor word choice on my part tho... Most scorpions that are good just turtle up until an opening.... Im an alright slightly above average reptile main but reptile is super punishable.. I never hit no crazy 40% + combos but the fact i been elder god w 30% and less imo w reptile and usually dont play safe 🤣🤣 anyways scorpion gets a free full screen punish. And if im too far and try and death roll punish scorpion for the chain toss well I get full screen combo punished... The most you can punish scorpion against is his teleport... And maybe his armored mid but I cant remember too well... Most scorpions I see either are really good w bro and timing or wanna cheese full screen .
How are we supposed to reach god when I play rank and I can’t win because ppl spam the same move or block all game like it games the game mad boring they need to do something about this game for real
Hey diff, great video as usual! I agree to disagree, but I want to share some thoughts as a kenshi player. Honestly, scorp gives me hard times. Kenshi really sucks at zoning: yes, his projectile is overhead but there is almost no trading with kenshi because if scorpion's spear hits first, his demon drop disappears. Yes, he has subzero's ice armor, but they really don't do much. You have the sweep, the hell fire and jump teleport. Ice armor doesn't last long and any hit will remove it. In reality, for kenshi to get close to scorpion, it's all walk and crouch block, duck isn't even an option because of the sweep and hell fire. The main point is, kenshi cannot trade projectile with scorpion, unlike liukang, if fireball trading with spear will just do raw damage to both characters, but kenshi will get full combo-ed by scorpion. In reality, I agree it's not fun to play against kenshi, but it's also not fun against scorpion as well. From my POV, all scorp players just do back jump, spear, sweep, hell fire, poke into swing, it's boring as hell to play against. This could not true, but it's also just what I feel like. You feel like all kenshi do is touch you and summon sento and infinite block stun. But we kenshi player spends soooo much effort just trying to land a hit and make sure our combo don't drop. It really takes skills. Kenshi being without a good projectile, when facing against scorp, is just a slow moving target. From your round with kenshi, you can see his struggle to get close. I don't feel that kenshi is terribly balanced. He got plenty of weakness that can be exploited. Just a piece of mind, feel free to disagree.
What a dumb take, scorpion is extremely limited in everything. Kenshi is absolutely broken and doesnt really have a “bad” matchup. When sentos out hes out for 15 whole seconds, you can exploit it by whiff grabbing, huge amount of chip, usable kameo on top of sento, dumbass overhead that looks like a mid/low that ALWAYS catches mfs off guard bc of the animation, great damage, like literally kenshi has everything PLUS more, except for projectiles which are easily avoidable Youre playing top 3 and making these bad takes buddy, dont be a scrub please Kenshi has the least amount of weaknesses 🤷♂️ especially with stryker lmao come on man
@@dafuq77 Honestly disappointed at this toxicity :(. You feel whatever you feel man, don't bother raging. One factual error: kenshi's kameo is not usable when sento is out except for forward grab. See you in KL.
@@bothsidesgotglue you just said feel free to disagree and im disagreeing hard, im not being toxic nor trying to argue. And there we go, i was wrong about that, i do not play kenshi nor have i ever touched him. Point is, kenshi is most definitely broken, and he is most definitely terribly balanced. Besides the kameo which i was wrong about during sento, he still has everything else i mentioned does he not? Point still stands, definitely not arguing tho
I honestly think if they made Kenshi's ghost go away when hit (hit to kenshi, not the ghost by itself, it can still do the kneeling thing), it will balance him out the best. He can still keep massive damage and block pressure going but at least he'd be doing it at a risk.
Seeing you complain about Kenshi is funny to me Kenshi is a high execution character bro you really think there gonna nerf him are you crazy any high execution character deserves to be top tier cus not everyone is playing him only people who master him would play as him I'm not a fan of nerfing characters into the ground its not like there giving him any buffs he's already strong enough as is Kenshi is probably gonna be the same throughout the entire lifespan of this game
What if, nrs nerf Kenshi this way: Sento is now USABLE by holding Kameo, u can’t use Kameo while Sento is out, obviously and Sento now cost 2 bars. This way Kenshis actually need to think “do i block o keep pressuring”
Stop crying about kenshi, he is literally 10 times harder to play than scorpion, literally in ranked of every 10 fights, 5 are scorpion and that’s for a reason
If you think it's really easy being a kenshi player why don't you play kenshi yourself? Trash talking about Kenshi will give you nothing... Prove yourself
As a smoke player, high level kenshi or ashra are the bane of my existence online. They are not many, but the few you do find aren’t gonna give you a turn

Its pretty common already for good scorpions, plus back 2 is good against tall players.

Kind of unlucky for the people who buy it that they don't get a gold and silver variants, gold one is absolute gas.

Literally in the middle of watching the vid when he deleted it
Lol I just finished the video just in time before he deleted it. He's now rank 433 after those loses
you unlock the other variants by going back to the other maps and using the item you unlock from beating the final boss at all those gates. You then unlock them from beating the nodes.
Those little spots of blue light proyecting on diff’s face looked like tears 😂
I play Havik and I tend to really struggle against Smoke and sometimes Scorpions lol 😆.
Oh boy, it's diffin time!
I dunno what your on but Kenshi might be the best designed character in this game, he hardly wins any tournaments and scorp matches up pretty well against him
1:45 the only appropriate reaction after seeing a Kenshi player in kombat league 💀
To get the other skin pallets for scorpion . You had to beat invasions then use that key for the locked gates to get them
I think ghost resummon should actually cost 2 bars
As soon as I heard the De-sync issue was fixed, I KNEW Diff was on the case 😂
This is the first time ive seen him this annoyed in this game😂. But I 100% see why though, glad i dropped MK1 because i had a feeling they werent gonna do much to dix the issues with this game
newer sub bro! don’t even play scorpion but i love the vids!
What they need to do is make sinto run out twice as fast when it's on one knee, and make his amp sinto call out 2 bars but make him also be able to combo from his base mode into it with everything except his launcher and knock down

Scorpion definitely needs some buffs
NOTI GANG TAP IN
Diff are u gonna try tekken 8 or continue grinding mk rn?
At 75K subs, can you hide the wire for the MK symbol on the wall behind you? Or just cover it with white gaffer tape or something? It always bugs me 😂
Aside from the auto shimy, what are the things that reptile does to counter some of the lower tiers he mentioned at the end?
Yo diff I’m trying to switch to subzero to scorpion any tips and/or combos you need to do like optimals
All due respect I don't think it makes sense complaining about raiden storm cell into cameo when you use scorpion fire spin into cameo. It's literally the same thing. It's the meta, almost every character does unsafe thing into cameo
Ikr
Not the same thing. Storm cell into kameo nets a near 40% combo if cell hit and kameo picks him up. Scorp can't get that due to his spins knock down.
My guy diff love ya but you gotta block low lol kenshi's usually don't go for the overhead alot. Also have you tried to learn the match up a bit better
4:02 Diff slowly losing it.
Hey Diff, do you know when the full game is dropping?
Yeah the scorpion skin is nice but it seems the pack didn’t come with the gold and silver pallets so I guess those stay as invasion exclusive still
Complaining about kenshi but saying u use Stryker is the wildest shit I’ve heard in awhile from a mk player lmao
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but can't Scorpion get a full combo off of his armored wake up if Mileena is out? Wake up, wait till he pulls the scythe out, then forward kameo into spear?
I dont mind fighting kenshi haha
about Kenshi. HE'S JUST FUJIN WITH SENTO, that's it. Unfair wincondition with godlike nutural/range
Not a good comparison imo. Fujin would basically break neutral with skywaka, he could punish from almost full screen and had a low that would cover a lot of ground. Kenshi is not like that
F*** Kenshi, at first I was raginf a Jhonny Cage, but when you know the matchup he's fair, BUT KENSHI F THAT GUY.
I had a desynch happen to me. Lol I don't think it's been fixed.
GG diff. That reptile anti air was not a wiff. Legit anti air
Watching all my MK UA-camrs not grinding invasions in any form and missing out on so many skins, I know it’s grindy but still :(
The survive stages are whack and piss me off. I'm stuck on the survive stage in Shang tsungs lab
Please adress this in a video. When you win… why can’t we skip those animations! It takes so much time!
Kenshi and Johnny is Top 2 in this game and its not even close
Kenshi shouldn't get an option to have a Kapoor how ever you spell it.
Ur my goat tbh
What led projector do you have ?
