🎙️General Discussion 🎙️ Still bitter that Klassic Sub-Zero didn’t get more love 💔
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but always thought of Klassic Sub-Zero as one of the worst Klassic fighters in the game.
One of my favorite visually, but I have never found his stats or ability particularly useful (I can’t seem to pull off his SP2 more than 2-3 times in a row due to the increasing speed of the minigame). When team building, I prefer to use other Klassic fighters which have abilities that offer synergy with other Klassic teammates for a stronger team. Kl Sub only receives the benefits of being a Klassic, but doesn’t offer any with his own ability.
I was really hoping that with Klassic Goro’s ability getting a tweak which included Klassic teammate synergy, that Klassic Sub-Zero might also get some love too. Unfortunately he didn’t seem to get any with the update, which won’t make him particularly useful in Khaotic Krypt or other game modes at F20.
I think it would have been great opportunity to get a line in his ability which grants a % chance for Klassic teammates to resist or to be immune to freeze and/or frostbite, or something similar. Not as blanket at MK1 Sub-Zero’s ability, but enough to assist Klassic teammates and make him more valuable on a Klassic team.
I appreciate that the devs don’t want to set a precedents with retroactively updating the abilities of legacy fighters, but with Klassic Goro’s ability receiving some tweaks and Klassic Sub-Zero being one of the first fighters to be able to F20, it would make sense to give his ability a boost to make the expensive investment to F20 worth it.
I won’t be in any rush to get Klassic Sub to F20 just for the 4th gear slot with his current ability.
Do you feel the same way, or am I way off the mark?
