Nope, run cancels are fine now, there is more push back now after the meter burn

Bullshit.
Can you let me know where you're going so I can follow?
hm? Stealth nerf?
Hahaha. You're leaving the character because instead of a true blockstring, you are +. And you call him mid tier. What they say is true then
The risk reward is always bad for him now. He takes terrible guesses after SPENDING a bar.
Reward may be low, but for what risk? A -11/-8 overhead?
i noticed this at first but the timing is actually just more strict. You should be able to
No u can't
Don't make it sound like Shinnok was high tier because of HS into F4.
It was a core aspect of his game. This plus, the standing reset and dark beam nerf ensures that he will be mid tier. It adds up.
Hm you're right. Idk why I thought you could still (maybe I was confused after with a dark beam restand) but It adds more mind games because you're still plus and can run up and block or attack if they think you'll try to bait them
Because being +14 after mb hellspark is just bad right?
Just being +14 isn't some magical thing that opens doors to top 8's with a twitch of the stick. You need something useful to follow that +14 up. Why spend a bar to essentially put yourself at +4-5 due to the new range with your other option being another hell spark which is punishable by a lot of the cast? Especially for Imposter, meter doesn't come all that easy, so you were often forced to choose between an extra few percent of chip or the next combo doing more than 19% damage. I know a lot of people are still salted up from their inability to deal with Bone Shaper, but his MB Spark pressure is only "special" while in that variation, so the nerf hurts Imposter and Necro when neither deserved nerfs by anyone's standards. The Dark Beam nerf was the biggie that everyone agreed was necessary. No complaints there. Same with his mop. It's still a fantastic special, and all it lost was a few probably unintended setups. No complaints there. In case you haven't noticed, a good Bone Shaper is still going to annoy the fuck out of the people for the same reasons. His dirt is still there, it's just harder to do and very hard to consistently punish when done correctly. All the indirect pushbacl nerf did was hurt his other two variations, one being pretty balanced, and the other being underwhelming already.
Lol, I see what you did there.
BTW I don't know if you guys noticed this already but I was right about this.
That I have noticed. What I also noticed is Doomy's BnB's will not land anymore.
The ~30% off B3 in the corner?
Give DrManhattan some props.
