Nash - Season 02 - Balance Changes Discussion

you are right.
seems i mix something up, tried a few other chars in the last weeks.

edit- ah, i meant forward mk…but its airborne i guess so most likely not doable.
@oceanmachine, can you test that out?

but when the current back mk is +2 and you can do m-ta on counterhit already,
shouldnt that mean that when its without counterhit +4 in the new version that you should be able to do it too?

vframe app says its +3 oh currently…maybe thats why?

I wouldn’t be able to confirm ch knee into TA anyway. That seems impossible

So walk speed change was bullshit too?

Most of this seems pretty good i wish they wouldnt have changed both his dash frames and hp start up, one or the other would have been enough. An i honesly dont know which i would prefer since they both effect oki and frame traps.

Mk. SS is - 10 OB and has less push back.
RIP

so backfist is a less shitty option sometimes? I dunno it doesn’t seem like a big deal

I don’t know about you, but I used mk.ss for zoning and chip damage pretty often.

I guess it depends on how much the push back was nerfed.

you just have to care more about the spacing now so that you really just use it at max range when possible.
cammy will most likely be able to punish it now at each range.

This is very hard to read and close to impossible if you don’t have a background in modding Street Fighter 4/5, but I do, so:

  • They substantially buffed the anti-air hitbox of cr.mp. The way it works is the first frame is like before, and then the 2nd and 3rd active frame the hitbox increases a lot horizontally and vertically.

  • Standing medium kick comes out 1 frame faster.

  • Can confirm that his dash is exactly 2 frames slower (19 frames now).

  • They buffed the size of the hitbox on standing heavy kick. It should AA more consistently now.

  • They may have nerfed the range of crouching medium kick, but don’t believe me without testing it first, it’s hard to tell what they did.

  • They removed 2 active frames from jumping medium kick.

  • No changes to walkspeed, in fact unless I made a mistake, no one in the game received a walkspeed nerf or buff.

Many other changes, but this is just the stuff I noticed scanning through a barely human readable json file.

@LurkBrian May I ask you if you can read the Laura changes for me in the Laura sub forum? I think I already found out most of the stuff by myself but there might be hitbox related stuff that I missed.

@LurkBrian does stand RH and the chained version of RH (forward into roundhouse) have the same, improved hitbox?

no, but its a weird thing because the TC version actually has a different hitbox, it’s actually way better than normal even in season 1:

old normal: http://watissf.dantarion.com/sf5/boxdox/#v1_3/A4B-5HK-8
old TC: http://watissf.dantarion.com/sf5/boxdox/#v1_3/A4B-TC_5HK-8

BUT they nerfed the width of that hitbox. BUT they also jacked up the forward movement by a lot, so when you do MK>HK you travel farther forward.

it’s a lot of effort to say: yeah you can use it as an anti-air if they let you empty cancel like you can now. although it would be real slow so ~shrug~

I guess I’m still confused about what they indend to be the best anti air options. I’m leaning toward unchained RH?

yeah, put them into the startpost and sorted them a bit a few minutes ago for a better overview.

edit-
i dont know…he seem to get nerfed quiet a lot but the overal cast got damage reductions. not sure about making moves slower on startup.
i have to test him out ingame vs the rest to see if its as wild as it might appear on certain things.

Yeah, I think slight damage & stun reductions are pretty much across the board. The target combo into VS is cool especially with cr.Fierce being +7 (really looks like want us to integrate this especially considering that EX Moonsault is also +7).

Can’t really see him changing too drastically.
