As to the conversation about balance changes:
Whenever changes are made to individual characters, there will most certainly be biased opinions on players' mains. What most people fail to realize is that if everyone was perfectly balanced, you'd be playing Mortal Kombat 2 without special moves or something along those lines. There will ALWAYS be top tier characters and low tier characters. It doesn't mean said characters are unbeatable (in most cases anyway), just that lower tiered characters have to work a bit harder than others.
To me, it just seems like they want everyone to put in a bit more work to win in 2.0 but hey, I could be wrong.
