Could someone make a video of all of Rain's special moves, just to show them off? Both normal and enhanced, throws and such?

He's incredibly tricky to use IMO. With no real punch combo's his juggles rely on kick combos, and again timing is incredibly important. Bearing this in mind, his combo list is incredibly small in comparisson to other fighters. He has around 5 pre-listed combo's, most of which with varying reach which kind of force the player to be creative and patient with him. The most I can do so far with him on practice (on a still AI bear in mind) is jump forward 1, 4,3, lightning, 4,3, bubble (raise upwards) 1,1 jet spray. Even at that, it requires a lot of timing to pull that off as in comparisson to Skarlet or Kenshi he's quite slow.

Ah, if only he still had windy feet!

Geyser kick is decent, but I think that his jet spray is far better for anti-air.

Once again, his teleport is godly.

2bad 4% is all it adds.... thnx tho :)

Is Rain slow? That makes no sense from what I've seen in gameplay videos so far. He looks really fast to me.

He's not slow nor is he really fast.

I've been playing as Rain all morning. He's a little hard to learn at first, but I'm starting to get the hang of him. I think he's a lot of fun, I think I'll end up liking him a lot more than most of the entire selection of characters pretty soon.

If you would compare Rain's pace of gameplay with another character in the roster, who would it be?

i say kenshi

His moves are quite hard to begin with

Reptile, or Ermac maybe. Maybe even Kenshi at first. I'm not sure, but I'd say he's fairly average.

Rain should've came out by now

I hope Rain is moving smoother than Kenshi. I find Kenshi somewhat sluggish. Now slow as such, but like in MKDA-MKA, it just felt like they took some time to finish a move before I could do what I wanted next.

Do you mean hard to perform (like weird timing...)? Just clarifying....

I'm not sure if he's slow but he definitely feels a little clunky.

He'll be out soon enough, so don't worry. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Yeah exactly sorry for not clarifying

It's fine. Thanks for replying!

I'll give 'em a whirl and see how I feel. I've got Kenshi down very well, so maybe he won't be so bad...

I hope so. Or there'll be hell to pay! *cracking knuckles*

What does the Enhanced Water Bubble do?
Does it drain a bar off their meter?

no prob

if "give'em a whirl" is a pun for his intro then bravo! lol

and yeah the only thing is that rain doesn't have as many preset combos as kenshi.. but lots of pop up possibilities (thanks to his specials)

what makes him feel slow....

what is this with MK and there clunky characters? balance or a hard to master thing so it extends the replay value of that character?

Sounds like the Rain I remember from Trilogy!

The Water Bubble/Mind Control Orb was *always* a bit tricky-
you have to know *exactly* when it will wear off.

Lol. No pun intended, but good catch.

Hmm....the combo deficit may cause some trouble for me, but who knows..? Maybe, he'll be great.

haha cool i hope you put what you think of his gameplay here so i can check it out later

It only lasts longer
