so what does everyone honestly think of the zerker rework? don't really get why they canned his top heavy.
Brandon Watson
Jesus, you guys are getting too trigger happy with your threads
Nathan Thompson
They should of just nerfed zone, and buffed her 1v1.
Instead they fucked around with a bunch of shit and made her shit tier. Don't do a balance pass if you are gonna half ass it.
Elijah Martin
I'm glad they nerfed that disgusting damage.
Jack Robinson
cause 90% of a knockdown is too much
Carson Hughes
Not really. If he didn’t make a new thread no one would make one and it dies.
Charles Perry
his new max punish isn't even that much lower damage, I think they just wanted people to stop being faggots with the top heavy
Adam Phillips
xth for STOP THE NOBUSHI NERF
Isaiah Garcia
I can't wait to try Kensei's new stuff.
Jayden Wilson
When?
Xavier Foster
>too trigger happy ? I want to be lively and positive in making these threads.
Adrian Wood
If this means he's more aggressive then being a turtle then I'll welcome it. Dealing with max punish on the other end is just as annoying as cent's wombo combo; who incidentally has the same dilemma of being a turtle.
Michael Foster
>have no idea what changed >complain anyway
The changes were tested by the best player this damn game has.
Here is what skorbrand has to say:
---Nobushi---
The nobushi changes are mostly focused on reducing her strength in team modes, but there is 1 big improvement to her 1v1. A hidden stance heavy confirms a kick on block or hit, giving her a bit of pressure on opponents who are only blocking. When fighting against her, only guard switch when it is needed, otherwise you will make kicks at other times undodgable.
Light parry = top heavy (38), heavy parry = viper's retreat (26)
OOS throw = delayed cobra strike mixup, top heavy (72)
OOS parry = side heavy top heavy (66)
Owen Gomez
>pickup warden >the game suddenly turned into 140IQ battle of wits between two masterminds of intellectual prowess
I just run down a Cent 110 to 0 with a single vortex lock because every loop he thought I would feint.
Fucking AMAZING hero design Ubi. AMAZING.
Logan Hall
Memes aside, the only high IQ characters are Highlander and Kensei
Ayden Martinez
I always get fucked by wardens because I run out of stamina in 2 heavies, then they push me down and do 1 heavy and are 99% done with their second heavy, so I parry and they feint it, making me heavy stupidly with no stamina. Then I keep falling for it until I die.
Carson Young
never
Jose Ortiz
They were right about breathing new life into him instead of simply tossing him a bone. Kensei looks like he can expand his combos and has more methods to open then instead of cheaply giving him high damage for every hit. His new jump attack and unblockable 'bash' are what he needs plus the rounded speeds on each attack he can throw. I have to try it out to see the full extent but on some videos we've seen, I have a feeling I'm going to enjoy his new revamped moveset.
Jonathan Long
What's your favorite execution ?
Blake Long
Gladiator's How dare you?
Brandon Smith
Zerker dropkick by far. Watching him fucking dropkick a nigga off a ledge is the most satisfying shit ever. Second would probably be Warlord but that's only because I love his Icelandic.
Xavier Williams
that one when Kensei cut the arm off its opponent
Aiden Clark
Yes, I also think all he need was something that actually allowed him to use his move, because aside of those Kensei wasn't so bad if only a little slow, he have great reach and hit hard. Now I think he'll be in a pretty good place.
Nathan Reyes
>cool as fuck >can still look great if not better without gore effects >simple but effective >quick enough compared to other flashy executions Warden's Spinning Decapitation has the right amount of everything.
Jack Parker
Skorbrand is a fucking idiot and doesn't even play nobushi of course hes shilling that she didn't get nerfed because
Easton Lee
>nerf her into meh tier from S+ tier 4v4 >throw her a single bone in 1v1 which leaves her in the same tier after the other characters moved up with reworks
Nice "balance" there kiddo
Jack Brooks
>There are retards actually saying USBRO is ruined now What the fuck? He still dishes out a fuckton of damages with armor and at tremendous speed Hell he even still have his fucking OOS top heavy that delete 60% of a heavy healthbar with a wallsplat
Isaiah Davis
>retard ignores info because he can’t spam his shitty narrative Ebin
Brody Gutierrez
>60% no
Alexander Watson
>skorbrand doesn't play nobu >literally mains her for most of the 4v4 tourneys duelfags are back now?
Andrew Sanchez
never listen to the """"pro"""" players like scorbrand on game balance. Cocksucker is now relevant only because everyone good quit.
Camden Baker
Everyone good being the 50 warlords and unlock running shugs. No one is good in this dumpster heap of a game.
Dominic Myers
who was "good" before?
Alexander Sanders
Warden's Red Wedding-stab and Raider's Baneposter one
I want to lewd Warden!
Aiden Hughes
That's the only humorous one he has but I regret getting it since it's slow as fuck in favor for No Look Kill since it's his quickest. I like his Quick Kill the best since he looks absolutely badass after stabbing someone and pushing the blade to it's hilt then quickly removes the blade in one relaxed motion while the victim tries to kneel and hold his wound before he dies in a cinematic way.
Mason Scott
I only remember Petemo. Scorbrand always was some raging cocksucked who jumped from character to character because he couldn't understand that he is bad.
Andrew Brown
fuck off niggers
Lincoln Nguyen
If by good you mean people playin warlord, pk and shug(before run nerf). Then plenty. You had streamers like that orochi player and warden fags, but surprise surprise, if you weren’t top tier hero for duel, you ain’t winning shit, no matter how “good” you were.
Wyatt Foster
youtu.be/3lGKx2ePtrg Peter moo quit shortly after shug was nerfed and before Cent and ninja cane out. Reminder nobody was fair or good
Adrian Stewart
>duelshitter >thinks losing damage on her zone makes her zone bad >thinks a nerf to the first hit of hidden stance lights is bad when the second hit does the bleed and kick is near guaranteed afterwards
Jace Collins
what is "shug"
Parker King
not a nobu main but I don't think I've been hit by the second nobu light in a chain since season 2, most don't even bother using it, also the only way you're getting hit by a kick is if it's a confirm or if you're feinting or gb'ing, it's very easy to dodge
Leo Campbell
that's why the meta switched to 4s, duels are boring shit when everyones using the only 3 good heroes. also >petemoo >roach shitter streamer >good literally quit after season 1 because they didn't wanna git gud at 4s. Literally anyone can turtle and win in duels, came down to the hero matchup.
Andrew Lopez
rate my new character class concept list for the inevitable season 7 and 8 guaranteed tier: new heavies e.g. warhammer/warpick, huge russian brawler for the vikings and a guan-yu motherfucker probable tier: new specialists e.g. fencer , celtic longspear weilder, and a monk with staff (for the obligatory wukong character) possible tier: new vanguards, due to the nature of the classes "beginner" status unlikely tier: support classes having innate active abilitys or auras is a fast path to a balance nightmare e.g. banner maiden, bagpipe toting bard, and shinto preist with one of the various meme weapons that the japs made nigh impossible tier: magic users e.g. curse slinging roman mystic, odin themed thunder mage and talisman based ghost hunter
Caleb Perez
he was playing 2v2 pretty successfully if I remember correctly. I ain't blaming him for quitting, game is shit and 4v4 is trash.
Jaxson Rogers
>after shug was nerfed I don't remember clearly, it was when they removed the knockdown from the oni charge?
Sebastian Watson
Dom is the best mode
Blake Harris
>Staring contest or getting pubstomped Hmm
Leo Williams
petemoo quit gaming and streaming in general, he has some RL shit to take care of apparently.
Lucas Rivera
>winning or losing GEE BETTER UNINSTALL HEHE I AM A TRUE GENIOUS
Robert Hernandez
Winning a 1v1 in this shit holds no satisfaction
Luis Rodriguez
>3.5m I don't understand? What was it before? 3.5m is a ridiculously long distance. Poo
I'm hoping for a fencer, was always a Raphael main in sc, even though he was garbage. The only thing that would stop my playing as a fencer would be reflex guard or ugliness.
Carter Jenkins
>Russian >viking I already hate you
Lincoln Sullivan
Did autistic roach main Scott who waited for buffs leave the game with nothing? This is hilarious
Charles Roberts
>muh staring contest literally the essence of fighting games is trying to figure out how to open someone up
Jack Rivera
>slow hybrid character >kick is dodgable and it's the only way to open turtles what you didn't understand you sperg. They nerfed her because of that tournament, clearly.
Jose Hill
It's a good thing Hidden Stance counts for the first hit in the chain then.
Ryan Bell
scott was a faggot that destroyed the DS community and left and tried to do the same to FH
Xavier Brooks
Russia as of today is literally descendant from the vikingar. Kiev Rus was settled by the vikings.
Fucking idiot.
Aiden Cooper
>destroyed how so? he was hosting tournaments and streaming
Aaron Cooper
Never even saw this faggot back in the 2011-2012 days of Dark Souls. Did he start doing shit in Dark Souls II?
Leo Johnson
>as opposed to a native american and a scot what else could you do for a heavy viking? huge guy dual weilding equaly huge hammers?
Zachary Parker
Yeah he left in season 2 round 1. Gave an entire essay/encyclopedia as to why this game is bad and that roach for 1v1 needed a buff or bring him to warlord level. Devs flushed his shit down with the toliet and Shinobi came out. He hasn’t come back since, but did say he will when orochi was fixed
Isaac Cook
When?
Ian Howard
I am fucking terrified of the Zerker rework. Give it a week and Reddit is going to be absolutely filled with salt over him. Kensei looks good, Conqueror looks okay, but Zerk looks broken as fuck.
>Hyperarmor feints Fuck that shit entirely.
Jeremiah Parker
Who the fuck has a 3.5m foot?
James Taylor
he posted videos complaining about stuff, that basically split the community
Lincoln Moore
i seriously dont understand in what way he got better
Tyler White
>native american she's a pict
Thomas Gonzalez
can confirm, am ukrainian and dna test was like 90% nordic
Brandon Adams
A very round faced pict. Shame her hair choice only starts to get good at rep fucking 7
Easton King
Sure when the game has real mechanics to allow it. I can see your not very good otyher wise you'd realize the shit show staring contest duels are when both players are good and using heros with no viable openers.
Luis Perry
wasn't he right tho. Game had a lot of fucking problems, it still does that's not real life
James Rogers
nice try, shit slav
Alexander Roberts
This one pisses people off so I like it, not sure if it's my favorite though
Liam Gomez
That info was confirmed by art team and writers, don’t involve with your shitflinging with that other user. She’s a pict
Adam Brooks
i can see your not very good otyher wise you'd realize that good players either play good characters or can open people up with footsies frametraps and mindgames
Jacob Wilson
>Footies >mind traps >on 60fps PC I mean yeah if you played on shit consoles the “mind games” of pressing feint or soft-feint might work. But that shit doesn’t fly in master race version buddy
Jeremiah Bell
Talking about executions am I the only one bothered that so many executions just end up being decapitations?
Dylan Wilson
wait what? shaman is a celt?
holy shit never knew
Hudson Perry
>footsies >mind games Hello console player, How are you?
Jacob Harris
im sorry are you having a stroke? also read again and google what those mean.
Kevin Roberts
so i'm fighting that cent bot and for some reason he blocks after parry-gb my heavies. what the fuck
Daniel Morris
if she switches into hidden stance she skips her first attack so she can finish her light bleed combo in two hits, one of which is guaranteed if the first hits.
Ryder Martinez
Should I even bother coming back for season 5 now that nobushi is nerfed into sushi?
Nathaniel Wood
Yeah lore/art team creator who made her/ writer/ and design team, all said they took inspiration from the Pictish tribe for her. Unfortunately her and highlander are both under servitude to the Vikings
Michael Scott
Which I don't get. Vikings had actual shamans. Why just be extra weird for no reason?
Samuel Allen
she's better in 1s now just not OP in 4s. If you want to be a zone spamming faggot in 4s play the new kensei, his zone is basically nobu tier now.
Jeremiah Anderson
Higlander is not under servitude, he's just obliged to fight for the vikings due to ancient alliances, he actually doesn't really like the vikings
Tyler Howard
>"""""""better in 1s""""""" >literally only "buff" she received is that retarded kick after heavy which means opponent has to be fucking trash to not just parry slow ass hit wow it's fucking nothing
James Evans
Because someone on the team just wanted a skirt wearing pict that’s all.
Juan Gomez
She's going to be fine you pussy >being retarded
Cameron Roberts
>can't understand how game works >can't fucking read >calls me "retard" shut the fuck up already you trash
Parker Reyes
The relationship between celtic scotts and viking faction is probably based on the premise that vikings settled northern bongland in the early medieval period and even though celtic culture was already way declined by then, it's remnants were still there and cultures entertwined.
It's funny how history shows that people's and culture's migration is really fluid. To be fair with this logic they could basically fit any kind of warrior culture into any faction
For example, roman period celts and their barbarian culture, like Shaman, fit well with Vikings, while early medieval celts (breton cultures and such) would fit more with Knights as their's was a culture of chivalry (muh arthurian legends).
Isaiah Harris
I already know you're a fucking retard because you said she only got buffs to your kick. It's almost like you didn't actually read any of her buffs and just cherrypicked information
Ryder Foster
Ya if being stuck in C tier 1v1 and 4v4 is "fine". Why the fuck would I play nobushi now that I can just play kensei with his new cancerous zone and natures gotcha?
