It’s just that I think n who knows maybe other do too that there are characters that can do what he does but better in this version plus having no health in a game with high damage kinda blows
I honestly hated the changes to Phonon, she got nerfed way too much and is now forced to play really slowly with pokes and projectiles in a hyper-aggressive anime fighting game, which sucks. Meawhile Byakuya, Carmine and Linne are still eating good. Maybe I can hope for 1 balance patch every 2 years though?
Phonon is honestly fine because she has a god tier install and she always had a problem with securing her turn. If you want to talk about real nerfs look at Seth with no margin for error and no BS besides basic teles that you can mash him out of. Nerfed command grab damage, increased scaling on it. No follow up after j.214b + orb anymore. nerfed his reversal command grab by A LOT (worse frame data in all aspects) if you offscreen his orb in the corner for pressure it no longer exists. I will admit that Seth had some real unfair BS but a lot of characters have insane tools in this version and Seth lost all of his insane tools except his mobility...seriously why does Eltnum need an air backdash?
While I'm just a reckless potato as they say in the vod. Meter gain is at it's all time highest. 25 meter regain on spend is pretty strong. And come play in these online tourneys!
