i bet she gets a slight nerf, or goes completely unchanged
Betting on the same really.
I bet she gets a slight nerf too. I bet they knock her health back down to 950 or something. I’m just praying she doesn’t get decimated, though seeing Fei’s and Viper’s changes makes me have hope. They didn’t get destroyed as characters or anything.
yeah, i could see the health going down, but i cant see any of the cool shit leaving
Well just checked the changes for Abel, even though no Ultra increase for 1 (combo-able) I’m happy about the Cr.H hitbox increase! And Tornade Throw with more damage…
I just use U2 online to be able to “Armor” through opponents jump ins…
I think a health nerf for Makoto would be reasonable. Though I’d also be fine if she went unchanged. She’s one of the few characters in AE that I’d say is perfectly balanced as is.
I just hope these characters get these small changes.
Cody-
Faster walkspeed
And his reversal to be invincible on start up.
when do we usually get these updates?
10:30pm-11pm
All I would change on Makoto is that backdash. In fact, backdashes in general need to be weakened, but ones that propel you halfway back across the screen are just, only one word for it, lame.
Keep the health, keep the damage, just reduce the range on the backdash and we’re good.
If Cody gets faster walk speed, that cr.lk needs to go back to being 4 frames.
Why would they nerf her when she is high mid at best?
She’ll likely get some minor buff(s) like most characters around that level, maybe better meter gain or something.
Rest of the cast is supposed to be done tonight? Tomorrow night?
Anyways, inb4 twin hurricanes of death.
if she got buffed and lost nothing she could move straight into S tier
btw, every tier list has her right behing akuma, fei, yun, yang, viper. all nerfed or about to be nerfed
same position as sagat ken and gief who all got either very slight buffs or bug fixes. that bodes pretty well for her
im not saying she should get hit, its just a possibility with how good she is.
13 monday, 13 last night, 13 again would make 39. but i went to public school so…
Eh personally I think Makoto is hugely overrated, I wouldn’t put her above high mid. Huge damage output up close but sucky at getting in and sucky at defense as long as the opponent isn’t dumb enough to do crossups timed at the top as she gets up. I’d be fine with her getting the same kind of slight buffs most characters have gotten so far.
I agree with this. Though I’d rank her a touch better than high mid.
She probably won’t get touched much either way.
i dunno man. she has some flaws for sure, but that offense is crazy. also in the current AE, there arent that many characters that can keep her away enough to really exploit her mobility. she can make one good read, get in and then its lights out.
its a really solid character without zoning and turtle characters being really good. id like to see her stay the same, and see how she does with improved guile, honda, rog
Tonight is the big one gentlemen. Lets lean back and enjoy the spectacle.
i dont think it’ll be anything like last night tho with akuma. we might get 1 or 2 yang players to complain, but i dont think anybody is going to really come out and bear the cross for the twins
I’ve got my tear bucket ready to catch those delicious Yun tears.
I mean, if Viper players bitched that much over 10-20 damage, imagine tonight!
Projectile invincibility on ex hayate let’s go :blah:
Yeah she can kill quickly if she gets in. But I mean, who does she really beat other than characters who clearly need help anyway? I think she loses to very strong offensive characters now and she probably won’t do too well against strong defensive and mid range characters too if they get un-nerfed, which they apparently are. Imo she’s gonna need a little bit of improvement to keep up. But yeah I don’t think it’d be too much of a problem if she stayed the same. If she gets nerfed she could be in trouble but that seems unlikely.
