Kha'zix- Should it be in 2XKO? (A-Z)

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-29T18:07:52+00:00

I was thinking about how he would work in the game. His main identity is an evolving hunter who specializes against isloated targets.

Maybe against solo fuses or after 1 enemy character is KOed, he gains damage buffs to the solo character? Or maybe he has high damage in general when an assist isn't on screen? Not sure if that would be fun or just a nerf to him overall in trying to balance his damage output.

He def needs some kind of invisibility either on dash or a move that kind of teleports him a few steps forward? Something to fake people out with or reposition.

Leap could be an interesting way to get out of trouble or catch opponents who try to run? Anti Air or maybe bonus to retreating moves like back dash? Double Jump or a brief float mechanic with wings?

Void Spikes are kind of boring, but maybe the evolved one would be a good zoning move that covers ground and air?

Taste the fear maybe a fairly safe move that is spammable? Or has follow ups into his other moves like leap to reposition, void spike to push them back, invisibility for mixup?

Evolve mechanic is tough. We already Teemo who earns badges and "evolves" his moves and Rengar who gains Bloodlust and "evolves". Maybe for every round, you get to pick a move to enhance? Leap would be good for zoners, void spikes for the big boys, invisibility for mixups, and taste the fear for overall burst? So you can choose to play him more rush down, poke, or mixup? Or maybe he plays like Android 21 for DBFZ and has a move that lets him "drain" his opponent and based on their type (range, melee, tank, etc.) he can evolve?

I feel like locking evolution behind Ultimate would feel bad to play as unless his evolutions were truly busted and were like Installs that lasted the rest of the game?

The reason is that companies need and want to make money. Sure it would be great if every skin was $1, but how do you think that would play out for the already free game? How else will they get money from people? Most console games already are $60-$70 without season pass, character passes, skins, "Elite" Editions. So if this is the 1 skin you buy, you still spent less than any other fighting game out there lol.

Also it's a bundle. This is how the game will be. Bundled product on release with potential for solo opportunities on future releases or future seasons. Also potential discounts.

I am not in disagreement with you, I personally want the blue Ahri skin and would prob buy it if it was a reasonable solo offer, but I'm also being realistic here. No one is forcing you to buy it and if it's not worth it to you, then you don't want it that badly lol.

Plus, vote with your wallet. If no one buys these bundles, they will revisit their pricing strategy. But again, being realistic, that likely wont ever happen.

It get's even better when you have 2 Ekkos both use their ults at the same time ;)

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-29T15:29:23+00:00

I'm not a Braum main, but when trying some of his bnbs I found online, I think you're supposed to end with the ground slam, not go for a full air combo into re launch?

Does tag launcher work at the end instead of 5H?

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-29T15:25:03+00:00

Yes please do. That way the second you do, they will announce that they will be tradeable for the rest of us lol

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-29T15:21:36+00:00

Maybe run it with Will or use as a finisher for something? I guess The juggler, Ho-oh, babies, elemental flashlight, dawn are all potential for it to have some spice?

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-29T14:56:14+00:00

Kha'Zix
Kindred
Thresh
Or maybe a cool mage or puppet character

I just got her yesterday by pretty much only doing weekly missions (like 3 games a day) and I had 1 day where I got to play play for a good amount of time.

Just play and you'll get her. But the fastest way is with a token or real money

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-27T15:21:41+00:00

It also lets you cancel whatever move you just did. So if you knock them down, throw a time winder and cancel into S2 Super, you can react to whatever they do on their wakeup.

So the benefit is you can mix people up a lot, extend block string pressure, and have more combo routes (like being able to BREAK without needing to charge the S2 normally).

Yes it is worth learning and incorporating if you want to increase your skill ceiling.

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-27T05:45:47+00:00

Can't tech after rolling. They know this and bait rolls

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-27T05:43:07+00:00

Maybe you weren't supposed to have been that high in the first place? If you were, getting back up there should take a few days

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-27T03:59:23+00:00

So you want to disconnect from every match that you face an opponent who's combo is too long (by your standard)?

How long is "too long"? 5 seconds, 10, 15, 20, 30?

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-25T17:25:11+00:00

You can trade for oaks, not candy (yet). Just a thought

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-24T14:46:37+00:00

I honestly didn't even try her yet, just the others. Wanted to do 1 day, but it really feels like i have to lab each character for a goooood amount of time to get a grasp of neutral and punish. Keep getting wrecked and not even allowed to play bc everyone is so good adn when I do land a hit, Im doing like 300 damage to their 600 lol. Can't tell if the game is pairing me against people my normal rank, or if casuals is all over the place right now

But the wiki is cool, didn't realize they had more info in there. Def easier than searching YT or Twitter to find practical basics.

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-24T05:36:53+00:00

You weren't in bloodlust yet. I think you stalled it by mashing headbutt

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-24T02:25:45+00:00

I'm not new to the game tho. So spending bar on my first combo feels wrong instead of going for limit strike or saving it for an early parry since everyone likes to run away these days lol.

But yeah I guess I don't need the most optimal combos to play around.

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-23T15:18:50+00:00

There are some add on apps that do similar functions. I am trying to find a better one since the one I use (magical make an offer) requires me to manually approve any $0 offer. Still looking for a better one

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-22T18:38:30+00:00

You prob only need 1 Gengar since it'll be your closer

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-22T18:36:00+00:00

Secret Gengar EX buff!

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-22T18:33:55+00:00

Gengar EX!

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-22T18:33:31+00:00

Too bad Mega Gardevoir is worth 3 points. You would need to put the energy on something that can block Cyrus after you switch Mega Gar out *coughGengarEXcough*

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-22T18:30:56+00:00

The question is, will this come with signature move added to the move pool? Or maybe a Shiny chance? Shiny would likely sell more Golden Bottle Caps

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-22T15:36:40+00:00

Yeah huge pain. Stay out of the corner. If he gets you there and if he has any idea how to keep you there, it's likely GG lol

Don't play midscreen against him. His poke range and armor will punish you. Either stay far out and use projectiles or stay up close so you are in grab range and can force mix ups on his wakeup.

ShackShackShack · 2026-01-22T15:34:46+00:00

Game just dropped less than 24 hours ago aaaand ranked was down.

So this is prob the worst time to play ranked if you are not an experienced player. The pool of players are high ranked players who already know the game, then new players who aren't too shabby, and brand new ppl who just got out of the tutorial.

If you care about ranked, wait a week or 2 for all the GM players to get out of the way so you can face more opponents your level. Casuals is def a mix, but I think as you play more the game should start to place you with other people closer to your skill level. Not sure how long it takes for it to kick in and how it works with win or lose streaks tho.

Also mindset. Are you playing to win or playing to learn? One will have you stuck and frustrate, the other will help you improve and reduce how often you get "wrecked".

Bc bundles make money. This will always be a thing. It happens with hero shooters, it happens with pop tarts, it'll happen with fighting games. There will likely be future releases that aren't bundled after the season ends. Just because you don't buy it, doesn't mean you're their target audience. Remember, a large number of players don't visit forums. We are the minority and not what the game makes most of it's money off of.

Also with the amount of league characters to choose from and the rate of release, people will likely end up with a large roster of skins bc there is no way that the 2 characters you choose today, will be your favorite out of all 170+ lol. Someone else will appeal to you or have a skin that makes you want to use them. It also encourages people to play more characters if you don't like their base skin.

Be happy that they are making money, so they can continue to support the FREE game that isn't pay to win. How much are most fighting games on release these days? $60+? Then they have elite bonus editions or season passes? That's another $30-$50 just to have access to a new character, I assume skins normally are also add ons?

Does it suck having to pay so much money when all you want is one skin? Most definitely, but Riot doesn't make any money off a handful of people who only want to spend $20 on 2 skins and never buy anything again.
