I don’t think so but with MP.TB being EX-Red Focus cancelable we might get combos like J.HK,CL.MP,MP.DP, RFC, U1 for 653 damage.
Why nerf that Condor Spire… but maybe the focus cancellable mp.dp makes up for it.
It’s disappointing that Hawk is getting any kind of nerfs, but being able to FADC from standard Strong DP could be big.
We finally get some red focus combos.
J.HK,CL.MP,MP.DP, RFC, U1 for 411-547 damage
CR.LK,ST.LP,MP.DP, RFC, U1 for 350-437 damage
CL.MP,MP.DP, RFC, U1 for 384-510
J.HK,CL.MP,MP.DP, RFC,CL.MP, DP (LP= 430,MP= 438,HP=442)
J.HK,CL.MP,MP.DP, RFC,SPD (LP= 418,MP= 431,HP=458)
Misc.
CH CL.HP,MP.DP,RFC U1 for 454-603 (Tested on crouching E.Honda)
J.HK,CL.MP,MP.DP, RFC,CL.MP CL.MP RESET U1 for 892 damage
Thanks to MP.TB being 2 hits going for a CL.MP to MP.TB after a splash is a punishable on hit against some characters like Rose,and Ryu.
Combos or not, I still think the CS nerf was so unnecessary it’s not even funny anmore.
Yeah there wasn’t any good reason for the nerf.
I still don’t see enough T.hawk representation in tournaments.
Hawk is just not allowed to be good. Lol
At the very least, they didn’t touch the recovery on the CS. So there’s that. And it use to be 20 Frame startup, so it wasn’t nerfed too badly.
Plus Hawk has an actual FADC now (Not tied to just the EX TB). So hopefully we can setup some scary U1/U2 mixups.
Nerfing Giefs jab gh for no reason and nerfing Hawks spire for no reason, gotta love the morons in charge of balance. It’s clear that they only listen to whining scrubs that have no clue how to play against grapplers.
I know I’m late to the party but light spire used to be better than scissors kick, it was a bit too abusive. The new version is still good we just can’t yolo a jab into 160 damage anymore.
The medium tomahawk was a really nice adjustment without making hawk unfair. Light spire was funny for the first week and then you realise how powerful it had actually become.
