@BehindTheLight99: Yeah a smart opponent will always just block or stay on the ground. You also get free meter gain. Once your opponent knows that their safest option is to stay still, you can mix it up with Hellfire for an additional 7% damage. A normal Hellfire is guaranteed if your opponent doesn't do a wake-up attack (the timing is a full backwards dash).
It's not something that should be done everytime. One time, I held block instead and punished a Johnny Cage Enhanced Shadow Kick.
@RedRaptor10 I'm an above average MK9 player and I have yet to find out how to stay on the ground, I try holding down while also holding down block but that doesnt seem to work. Care to explain? :3
And if they do anything else...they will be most likely countered most of the time. It's a safe meaty attack, that's the point. It means he can mixup it with something else.
@toastyblues06: Not much of a find because I'm sure almost every Scorpion player has tried this before. I still use Sektor but he's kind of boring now and it's hard to find something new with him since all he has is Up Missile.
Very nice. Very insightful

@steelslither I think you have to hold down and nothing else.

All you have to do is hold block and the spear will never connect.
