Honestly i don't bitch about zoning, but i do dislike the concept behind it.

I mean, I personally find fighting against zoning to be incredibly tedious and annoying, but I'm not going to go cry about it and scream for a patch lol. Yes it's frustrating to play against, but there are ways around it. zoning deathstroke<spacing mitsurugi

Oh yeah i wouldn't scream for a patch either.. but i just don't like fighting against it because it really boring to me and i don't like to just dash block my way in all the time..and to me there is just no risk involved. I guess the only risk is not being smart about it.

Well, there ain't much you can do besides dash/walk and block unless you have character specific movement like wonder woman and lex who have a dash type attack in the air. I know it is incredibly boring to fight against, but if you want to win you have to deal with it and play patiently.

There are risks that come with zoning. There are risks with most actions you do in a fighting game. If you don't zone correctly then chances are the opponent will get in and wreck you. Some characters zoning options are also very unsafe (like aquaman or sinestro) so if they throw out projectiles recklessly then they can be punished.

Im new to 2d fighters honestly so maybe thats why its hard for me to accept zoning...so in Mk9 and street fighter is it the same thing? just keep dash blocking till you get in?
