Sonyas Overrall Gameplay
I like to know what you guys think of Sonya's gameplay. I feel Sonya is a very underrated character,and she doesn't get the full recognition she more then deserves. Sonya gameplay to me is one the best, she has combo's that can range up to 56% damage(as far as i seen), her military stance serves as a great purpose,especially getting out of sticky situation, her arc kick is great move against any jumping opponents and characters with air moves such as Kitana's square wave punch, Kung Lao's dive kick,and etc..Her kiss of death can't set you up for a great amount of heavy combo damage.To top it off with arguably the fastest uppercut in the game(avantage for her). Sonya is also one of the fastest characters in the game (another avantage for her). I believe the problem is that we don't see alot of great Sonya players especially in tournaments, that can really showcase her pure talent. I myself, are a good Sonya player, and let me tell you there's so much this women can do. So each day i play, and practice more and more with Sonya, hoping one day i can show you guys how good of a top character Sonya Blade really is..

I'd appreciate it more if people didn't spam her handstand jump kick things.
I agree that she's a very good character and an underrated one at the moment. However, as you know early on pretty much everyone was playing Kung Lao at the tourneys, but as the time passed and all the tweaks were done things have changed quite a bit and more and more "underrated characters" can be seen lately at the tourneys.
I've seen some good Sonya play from CD Jr. and KrayzieBone among the tourney players. I even think there was a guy at the national PDP tourney who played Sonya and finished in Top8 (if not Top8, he was in Top16 for sure and that was a massive tourney).
Anyway, I'm sure more and more Sonya players will start showing up at the tourneys. Just look at Sektor, pretty much no one played him in the first few months, but then one good player (Sektroll) did well with him at the tourney and now more players have started experimenting with Sektor.
Check out this Sonya combo video, some amazing stuff (posted in another thread by a forum member Photo2222).
She's fine and we know it, don't worry.

Sonya is one of those characters where if you don't know the match-up, she will shit all over your pumpkin pie. If I know I'm going up against a Sonya player, I immediately counterpick to Sub.
I tried using her a little, but she feels strange. It's as if she was made for a different fighting game.

thanks for the redirect ... queve and icegrenade
I think her game would vastly improve If they included a reverse cartwheel kick, I used to use this in MK4 and it greatly enhanced her defensive/dodge strategies.
Including more kick oriented combos also will add to the variety of her kick starters and juggles. That knee lunge in military stance has so much potential but unfortunately its quite isolated in the current game unless somebody else has better strategies.
The Team should provide Military Stance with more depth, it’s quite simple and most of the moves mostly are used as juggle finishers to little value.
The properties for her special Arc Kick must be changed, it’s too similar to the regular one and I don’t see any benefit in wasting a special bar for the exact same move.
Dive kick is amazing but I would like more options after performing it because currently the options available after a dive are very limited and very obvious
.
Those are the things off the top of my head
