SF6 Season 2 Changes: Luke (He got away with it lmao) 

I bet they will complain Ken got big nerf in S2

Another victory for the ministry

There was 17+ Ken's at CPT too and that mofo got even more buff.

If shoto characters are T0, this is expected, because most of the players like shoto. shoto is the most popular archtype, so more pros would pick shoto if shoto are T0/T1. In the contrary, why so many pros pick luke/ken but the top8 still got 6+ different characters in the big tournamets? Doesn't this in turn prove that these characters are not as strong as everyone thinks?

They saw 1 cammy and was like, that’s not fine.

​@@computervision557 they aren't as strong as people think. People just like to whine.

@@jsvaldes88 However, Luke nerf very hard, I bet he is not top5 anymore, still too early to tell he is T0,T1 or T2. He may become the worst shoto character in S2

I wouldn’t say he’s in his own tier anymore, but he’s top 5 now for sure. Ken is officially better now. This is what y’all wanted btw when you kept complaining about luke

@@Dabbingduck420 Luke down players right on que. The guy is still the best character in the game no questions asked, I hope you're not suggesting Ken is better than Luke that would be embarrassing. JP and Deejay got smashed with the nerf hammer and Luke got tapped.

@@SpiffingDay Luke downplay is crazy. I’m it even a luke main

@@SpiffingDay Really doesn't matter if Luke is the best character in the game cause theres is a much more broken character in the game and thats Akuma.

love? Luke is CAPCOM’s father

Thank you xD

It's unsafe on block so nobody uses that move without cancelling it anyway, so I doubt this will matter a lot.

It matters a lot actually because you get big rewards out of it now on a punish counter/counter hit. Its a forward moving relatively fast move.

@@MCMuraFGC Hey. Great work on putting out all the balance changes and helping us understand what they really mean. Really helpful in understanding with respect to characters we don't play as.

@@MCMuraFGC Hm, sorry if I'm confused but on counter hit it would be +3 which doesn't link into anything, and if you have a punish counter you'd go into flash knuckle on reaction anyway?

how are you feeling about the changes a few weeks out?

Lets gooooo lmao

I for one love that they want us to make more use of the DDT, such a cool move

The oppponent can reversal that on reaction, its not that good

I will take the two bars and add it to my halloween candy

@@refreshinglemonade3426 well fair enough, if that burns them out or gives you huge bar lead its a legitimate soft bait

My Blanka reached diamond4 around 300 matches At the same time, my luke reached diamond4 around 3000 matches

He got a buff for every nerf he got. The cr.MP one is sure a bit weaker but its still an amazing move with this range and 6 frames. B.HK routes aren't really nerfed that badly since DR B.HK > St.HP works and he get Perfect Knuckles out of that now. Cr.MK is universal, his cr.LP is still one of the longest reaching in the game. cr.HP is a nerf but let's be real, should have never been this insane of an AA when he got a DP Let's take a look at what he got instead, He got st.HP > Perfect combos that makes whiff punishing with a forward moving long range advancing move more rewarding. He got the 2 part OD Fireball that now does almost an entire gauge on a PC ie ( When you use in a fireball war) He got almost full screen safer run shoulder. He got combos to DDT doing obscene damage now AND he builds a ton of super gauge with it, and remember that Luke got the best lvl 1 super in the game. Now compare him to the other strong characters that got nerfed like Deejay, JP, Chun or Cammy and you will see that Luke got handed much better cards, especially since he was widely considered the strongest in the game already.

CPT and EVO Japan has 6+ characters in TOP8/TOP6

Players being rewarded for fucking up is always a bad idea.

@@Nyagro it’s not a reward he gets nothing from fucking up. He’s just safe on block that’s all.

The risk/reward argument doesn’t apply for moves that are exclusively (or close to it) used for combos. There is no risk, there is only your ability to do the combo right. Intentionally giving the player safety despite dropping a combo (which is something the other player can’t directly influence) is like adding training wheels.

@@maaziqbal357 It does in Luke's case since perfect knuckle takes a lot more execution. We've seen pros like MenaRD, NL, Kawano and Chris Wong Drop these combos, but it's worth it since it leads to a lot of damage. Now they've Nerfed that damage so there's no point for it to be that risky. Also, I don't get why you guys are so angry, it's still your turn, Just don't spam drive impact and you're good, it's not that serious.

@@Guess_Again he gets to keep 40% of his HP. Are you that dense and looking for excuses or did you really not get the argument here?

What are you talking about? Black is the most noble race, SJW like them

nah its because DJ isn't a shoto, capcom wont allow anyone that is not a shoto to be top tier

Really ? 😂

😂😂😂​@@Yessirr456

DJ is much more annoying to me

Luke has won tons of tournaments, DJ has won hardly any. Typical bronze player mentality

@@CyranoForever101 I’d bet my entire life savings that I have a higher MR than you, assuming you’re even in master rank

@@CyranoForever101 what’s someone’s preference on how much they dislike a character have to do with them being bronze?

god normal

Who are you to tell ppl how to speak?
