I noticed it too, and Doomsday arguably has the issue as well.
I pin it on the two of them not leaning forward nearly enough for their sprints, last I checked big brutes didn't have good running posture and perfectly-straight spines.

The issue could be avoided if Hulk just did his signature jump everywhere instead of running for most of the fight, and I feel like he'll end up doing that for every instance where he's playing runaway or catchup past the intro anywho.

You'd think with Motion Capture we'd be able to get better running animation.

I know you don't have the same bulk as the fighters, Torrian, but what about using football shoulder pads?

Is this another part of pony friendship? Telling each other what you learned all the time?

Btw, here's an old Injustice gameplay trailer with Doomsday:

Huh.

So....can Hulk survive being thrown into lava?

I feel like it's now a pertinent question.

[up] He can definitely survive lava, no question about that.

IIRC Hulk can survive megaton-level nukes. Lava should be cakewalk for him.

Lava is one thing, but that showed Doonmsday tunnelling throught the Earth's core. That's a ton of pressure and heat.

I've got it, Doomsday vs. Bastion. The parallels run deep.

How's this for a death battle idea: Lui Kang vs Charlie Nash.

Yes, it's another Mortal Kombat vs Street Fighter battle, but this one's a bit interesting given the recent changes the two characters have undergone, from unambiguous good guys to being corrupted by dark forces against their will.

I can't help but think that would've been one of their best DBX's...

...if only they didn't waste it on Trump and Clinton. Liked the ending with CA though.

[up][up] I have only one thing to say about the ending, and that is HAIL HYDRA!

The Attack on Titan reference was hilarious, though.

Indeed it was. I'm surprised I haven't seen more Attack on Trump memes.

I also liked the fact checker laser cannon.

I liked the "Captain America for eternal POTUS" bit, to be honest. Finally, a DBX that I actually like.

It's really the little things that made that DBX, I don't think there could've been a better sound effect for the wall being built than the Super Smash Bros. Brawl Party Ball sound.

Oh man, for once I regret not following USA politics. I feel like there are so many references I don't recognize.
