Following up on their recent Injustice 2 “Getting Started” episodes for Dr. Fate and Scarecrow, PND|Ketchup and PND|Mustard are back with a beginner guide for the Society’s primate premier, Gorilla Grodd. While not a traditional grappler, Grodd’s telepathic powers, brute strength and great mobility make him a force of nature on the battlefield. Do note that the footage in this video was taken from a pre-release build, so some combos may change on the full release.
Many of Grodd’s strings can be meter-burned to launch your opponent, allowing for extended combos. Grodd’s back 2 is an essential part of his kit, as it restands the opponent and opens up for damaging resets. As for his mobility, Grodd can quickly close the distance via his Primal Lunge or Stampede. Stampede gives Grodd a quick burst of ground speed, while Primal Lunge has the ape leaping across the stage at three different distances. He can use any of his aerial normals as he soars towards his opponents, along with a command grab for quick damage. This command grab can also be meter-burned to give Grodd access to even more damage.
If you’re struggling to deal with projectiles, Grodd’s Savage Strength allows him to be projectile invulnerable for a few seconds. In this form, Grodd is much slower but it will give him just enough time to close the gap on long range zoners.
