Well Sektor is not dead, he is just honest character now and he still has his neutral game. He barely got scratched, but generally the nerfs that he received because of the other variations break his setups as well.R.I.P Sektor.
I might actually learn A-list but if I don't I'm just gonna quit this game and go back to KI3! Maybe Tekken7.
Lol you might think he's fine but fight a high level A-list and let me know how it went keeping him out of your face.Well Sektor is not dead, he is just honest character now and he still has his neutral game.

However, the character is not all about these setups and this setup in general was only if you really really wish to commit to it. I personally would rather take the 36% guaranteed damage out of the b1,2+4 EX and reset to full screen ending with air cyber charge which will give me enough time to land full screen up rocket into straight one. I think this is overall better. But it was nice to know that you have armor breaker setup for people that abuse wakeup armor.
Yeah, I actually do please against mediocre A-list friend of mine, since I have no friends that are actually Johnny Cage gods and I can say that it is tough matchup and indeed once Johnny comes close it is really hard to do anything about it.Lol you might think he's fine but fight a high level A-list and let me know how it went keeping him out of your face.
Well the bots neutral is kinda ass. Good reach on stuff on highs but no decent mids to play the game. Just low poke or bully him with mids. Since his d3 got less hit adv your not gunna be pressuring too much cause you can only do high moves afterwordsWell Sektor is not dead, he is just honest character now and he still has his neutral game.

What about f2,1,2,b,b this is all mid string and pushes you far back. It's not that you do not have that string. Indeed robots have many high hits, but that variation specific string is fucking amazing and I have to say that sektor has it best from all other variations speak of mids.Well the bots neutral is kinda ass.

He's not and i dont rush down but i cant keep anyone from pushing buttons cause of highs and easily low profiling mids. Kano can do what sektor does but better and safer and has mids to compensate. Maybe doesnt have up rockets but at almost 60 frame start up you can only really do that once a match.What about f2,1,2,b,b this is all mid string and pushes you far back.

Also your highs can be used to challenge and punish whiffs at the right distance. Yet again, you wish to apply pressure with Sektor rather play it neutral and play footsies which is the exact idea of the character.
Sektor is not a rush down character so you will not apply any pressure with it like it or not. If this is what you need you should rather pick Johnny Cage then.
Yeah, I understand what you mean now. d1 can be low profiled and that's true. d3 has less hit advantage, but still enough to follow up with f2,1,2,b,b after that. So in your video you can clearly see for yourself that d3 is winning.He's not and i dont rush down but i cant keep anyone from pushing buttons cause of highs and easily low profiling mids.

Anyone with a good poke(almost anyone now) can jus go under sektor. And it doesnt help that hit adv went down so playing nuetral and and getting very little to capitalize on hits.
213. Lol. Lemme know how many times you hit people with thatEnding combos in 213 may help with that. I believe it has 25 hit advantage which is close to a lot of the pre-patch hit advantages.
Can't deny that it hurts his corner game a bit. In any case Sektor should probably still be fine.
You missed my point. And it was that A-list and heavy safe pressure chars gave him a hard time already but at least when Sektor touched them they had to hold that set up. Now they aren't gotta hold shit, and that weak ass 13frames armor move won't help much.Yeah, I actually do please against mediocre A-list friend of mine, since I have no friends that are actually Johnny Cage gods and I can say that it is tough matchup and indeed once Johnny comes close it is really hard to do anything about it.
However it is not that this is related in anyway to the armor breaking nerf. In general Johnny cage as well as all other heavy rush down characters such as Jax have it good against Sektor upclose. Still this does not make the character dead and again if you play it out smart you can pull out wins against these characters.
Sektor DMG is nice his combos are good he has good neutral and you can convert pretty much any 50/50 attempt safe with EX straight missile.
This nerf would not make the matchup that much easier to be honest. How often you want to stay upclose and try to break eventual armor attempt on nutcracker at a cost of a bar. I would again rather use it on making something safe into EX straight rocket were I can reset the distance and try to play it neutral and not let them come close. Correct me if I am wrong.
Provide legit proof that those moves were nerfed, then we'll talk. There have been many many times where people on TYM say 'X has been nerfed' when it turns out nothing actually changed.Sektor also had his air dash, ex air dash and -- from what I heard -- ex rocket nerfed. They are more unsafe now. What a ****ing joke. As I've said before, NRS are not interested in balancing the game. What they do is release overpowered DLC to sell as much as possible and then quickly nerf the DLC to hell to silence the complaints.
There was absolutely no reason to nerf his air dash, and his ex rocket was already freaking unsafe. If people had bothered to explore him they would have known that you can duck the last hit without blocking and punish Sektor before he recovers.
They could release Sektor as low tier and I would be happy. It doesn't matter what tier he's in. What matters is that they don't balance the game poorly on purpose, which they obviously do. They release overpowered DLC and apply nerfs not for balance purposes, but to appease lazy casuals. I just can't accept that dishonesty anymore.
See for yourself. Frame data has changed. Regular air dash is now -18 and ex is now -8. If I recall correctly they used to be -13 and -3 respectively. If I'm wrong and frame data was always like that, I apologise for the misinformation -- but I am pretty sure in the case of ex that it indeed used to be -3.Provide legit proof that those moves were nerfed, then we'll talk.

Perhaps this could've just been frame data adjustments, in the sense that the moves were always -8 and -18 respectively, but the frame data previously listed them as -3 and -13. I feel like a change like this would've been in the patch notes had it been any other way.See for yourself. Frame data has changed. Regular air dash is now -18 and ex is now -8.

Nop, you're just bad.R.I.P Sektor.
Nothing has changed with the air dash.It's not ridiculous to suppose that altered frame data means altered move. I suppose you have tested this thoroughly both pre and post patch, or are you just a hypocrite?
I've had the game since before it came out.Make sure to test before making such ridiculous claims. Get a time machine if necessary.
Also, the fact that you use "you're bad" as a generic insult towards people makes you look petty to say the least. In a sense I feel sorry for you.
