Please people i beg you don't make this character get nerfed, i love him too much to see him leave me. Get cyrax nerfed, sure, but leave this man out of the patch notes for now. He's going to be so hard to nerf so give them time to do it properly. Because let's be real, he's broken (just like the rest of top 5), but at least he's not the annoying kind of broken, and if you take away his frame data or maybe nerf hype mode (which is already tough to use effectively what does he really have left?). What i mean is be careful on calling characters broken, one day you might miss them, and to be honest there are worse characters rn

Forgot to mention one more important thing, Johnny is so far the only character who can punish his opponents if he spends meter after a successful throw escape. Predicting a throw and spending a bar to disable your opponent from throwing for a few seconds is very powerful in a game like this.

[@Henry-iz7iv]

Can only Johnny block the opponent from throwing? I remember hearing about this feature before the game came out but i didnt know if it was a character exclusive thing

[@jaidora]

@@Henry-iz7iv yeah, as of now Johnny Cage is the only character who can disable his opponent from throwing. After a successful throw escape, you can spend meter to break your opponent’s arm and their forward and back throws become unavailable for a short period of time.

When it comes to Johnny in this game, you really have to figure out the player more than figure out the character. Since he’s so op, many Johnny players tend to get caught doing the same thing over again and lose their ability to think of all of his moves. As a Johnny player, I can confirm this. If you’re opponent doesn’t change up the way they play they can get folded extremely quickly if you know when and where to attack. As a character overall he’s definitely one of the best, but the player is what holds him back

[@sonicanvaspost6867]

So basically he’s your knowledge check character

[@jeredaguila7054]

That applies to all characters though as far as how good the player is and how well they know how to use them. Johnny’s just capable of doing more and playing at a higher level than the rest of the characters 🤦‍♂️ definitely the best character in the game by far and too op

[@jasperf.2388]

I always wondered why Johnny got the 2 frame start up parry that essentially lets you go into full combo, that can ALSO be enhanced for faster start up etc etc. Meanwhile Reiko gets a 8-10 (I don’t remember exactly) frame parry that doesn’t combo, which is essentially useless when everyone can throw a 7 frame punch anyway.

[@thedeepfriar745]

They really don’t need to nerf Johnny as much as they need to buff other fighters

[@jamesonedwardsii4943]

@@thedeepfriar745he’s arguably the best but I don’t know. People just don’t know how to learn. Johnny has a tough time fighting in the mid range where half of the roster excels. He definitely can’t fight full screen….. People don’t use their movement and distance control at all in this game until you get to the really high levels. I’ll give an example of an “OP” JC player. Guy was spamming his “mix” all game and I blocked it every time. (All you have to do is block low and react to any overhead since EVERY overhead in this game is react-able) he would go into d1 EVERY time and I’d block it EVERY time and he never changed up once besides trying to grab like a scrub and got destroyed. My point is people really don’t try to learn at all just walk you down and get their YT combos off while lacking basic fighting game fundamentals. Yet they cry about a character being OP because truth is they are TRASH! Johnny is very good in the right hands but literally only right up in your face. A snidely if the same skill level of a Johnny shits on him every time.

[@jamesonedwardsii4943]

I also want to add for anyone reading this that I talked to a couple guys about and they didn’t even know this simple easy trick. When a mix up character is using a mix FOCUS MORE ON THEIR CHARACTER!!!!!!!!! Not yours and it helps to react to the overhead. I can’t believe when I tell people this all the time they say “oh I didn’t know that” 😅

I just want to see him more punishable on some of his launching strings not all specifically f34, and maybe a small start up nerf to his d1 to stop Johnnys from mashing out of every characters pressure that has a 12-14 frame mids after strings where his turn should be over. I don’t want him to get “sub-zeroed”

[@azazamat]

Every single one of his launchers (212, f34, f124, bf3EX) is launch punishable if thrown out without cover from kameo. Please learn what upblocking is. It's a new mechanic for MK1, but the game's tutorial explains it really nice.

[@frosty_trees]

F21 leads into a 50/50 where you’re gonna eat 30% at least if you up block and guess wrong. f124 is already death on block for johnny w out up block. Now that cyrax got a well needed nerf and flawless blocking now stops both meter build and chip it should be less oppressive. Even so, up block was not, prior to the update, and is not enough to level the playing field on its own. Especially online at higher levels, where you have to make a hard reads in sets where the ping can be up to 150ms and players can actually stagger and mix up effectively

[@azazamat]

@@frosty_trees then your problem is not with Johnny, but with the game itself. Can't really blame character for issues with ping. And no, you should never have "level playing field" with a rushdown character in melee, unless you play another rushdown character or some specific anti-rushdown. Gotta get rid of this mentality that it is somehow unfair that Johnny beats you up close, but it's totally fine and fair that you beat Johnny full screen.

[@frosty_trees]

@@azazamat Just to be clear everything I’m saying is in regards to competitive play, not casual. johnny doesn’t get beat full screen. There are no hard counters to him. He has an 8 frame almost completely full screen special that also can armor thru projectiles if enhanced, a dash that allows him to get in free and easy if you don’t have the timing to dash cancel, a parry that beats just about any button, and safety on almost everything he does. Even if somehow none of those tools work just use one of the many kameos that ignore projectiles, let him get up close completely for free, or do both. You can turn your brain off with him and cruise thru the ranks like butter. No footsies, no neutral, no brains. Meanwhile you have characters that don’t even have useable mids This is a competitive multiplayer game. Fairness and having a level playing field should be second only to the “fun factor”. Johnny kinda takes a massive dump on both in his current state if you want to do anything other than play the mirror, which you can’t even switch to mid-set. When people who play Johnny don’t even need to block most of the match and can chip half your health bar it should probably be addressed. I don’t think it’s impossible to beat him but he has no bad match ups. he’s a crutch character anyone can pick up in 10 minutes or less at any rank lower than grandmaster, and at the higher levels it just turns into a one player game where you watch Johnny slowly punch your health bar away one chip at a time. This is the most fun NRS game I’ve played since MKX imo. My issue is with Johnnys kit and Johnny kit alone.

[@azazamat]

@frosty_trees I think we're playing two very different games then. Cause I have to work pretty hard for every win in ranked, with fundamentals, hard reading my opponent and properly timing my pressure. While said opponent on some braindead zoning garbage like Liu Kang, Sub-Zero or Rain just spams whole match without any thought or reason. And that's on top of Kenshi and his fun, but frustrating Sento stuff. Maybe if you play somewhere above first 5 ranks you'll actually see how to get out of Cage's pressure. But you won't get there if you keep being condescending and unwilling to spend some time actually understanding the match-up. Like, for example, Shadow Kick is a high and launchable on block, Dash is not immune to everything all the time, etc. As for "bad matchups" - that is a really bad requirement to have. It only shows that the character needs buffs. I don't think Injustice's Zod vs Luthor is an example of good balance. If you suck playing against rushdown - maybe try playing one to understand the game plan better. Though it is quite a bit harder than brainlessly spaming projectiles.

ima be honest, idk too much about standard fighting games, but i feel like when it comes to balancing games, it's better to buff everyone else than to nerf a few characters. i don't mean to buff them to the point that they become better than the already good characters, but to buff them so that the tools they have are aproximately equal to the good characters

[@Ana_Oz]

Don't to mention that you can cancel Fatal blow to a shadow dash

[@xreaper_city_gamingx]

Annoying is an understatement boss its alot of characters in this tht b safe tht in no way should b

[@EliTheGleason]

Im just here for the international love edits

As a casual player its frustrating to play against Johnny because of all the + frames that are less than obvious to punish. As a pro player its frustrating because of all of the + frames. Sounds like he needs a nerf

[@joshuagorski9452]

MA MAIN!!!

[@Kasino973]

"Johnny is #1" Johnny players: if i can keep him in the air he can't block me 😅

[@maxrichards3881]

That's my favorite Johnny Cage skin by far!

[@Red_Eggie]

Johnny's absolutely wild! If I want to nerf Johnny, I'd probably make it so Wowing out is a once per game mechanic like the Krushing Blows from 11

Paired with frost this man is unstoppable Ps use frost then triangle sqaure triangle into dpad right + sqaure triangld circle into a corner repeat then at the end of thr second one uppercut into a frost freeze and repeat shits busted as fuck

[@Fritz_A.]

Most balanced NRS kharacter ever

[@the_good_within]

Don't forget i believe you can also use his dash to cancel out of fatal blow for a mix up

[@Buddy_Beatz]

omg wtf. thats stupid

[@j.g545]

you have to high block those overheads and he gets fked very soon.

[@sbg4422]

I love these videos

[@solemvow6281]

Im new to the game and I have 2 questions: 1. How can you tell when a move has armor by looking at the move list? 2. How do you perform a reverse counter? Is it with one of the "armored" moves? Or can it be any?

[@MARK-r6c3k]

When looking at the move list hit Square which opens up other info about the moves. Especially useful for doing Brutalities so you know what Else you have to do to make them work. I believe Square is 1 on all controllers.

[@just2raw4yall]

Look at the amplified version of all your special moves. If you press square read the info. It will say armored

[@tristencuda3424]

It’s just the frames. Insane chip damage with cyrax.

[@Pixels14]

Johnny is so broken that I jumped into practice for like 5 minutes, then beat a level 40 Johnny main online.
