General/Other - Kenshi Stealth nerf? B32 hitbox changed?

You know me as RisingShieldBro online.
I Was going to make a video on this but I'll put it in simple terms. While practicing my Kenjutsu combos (on both male and female characters) I noticed the 2nd hit off b32 kept whiffing after MB DF1 in Kenjutsu. This is a huge problem because combing off consistently in Kenjutsu is already extremely difficult and now his damage off one of his main combo starters is reduced by about 4-5% The only alternative is to use B1 but a run canceled B32 was used specifically to get the same amount of damage as B1 since B1 is so inconsistent. Anyone else notice this?

This wouldn't be an issue if kenshi didn't have so much recovery on launch for ex blade nado. I guess since you launch for a combo you gotta have major recovery as well since so many other characters have major recovery their launchers. #kappa

Haven't touched Kenshi in weeks. At this point, he is so dead to me. NRS just keeps f*cking him over.

This is true unfortunately. Tested it today in some matches vs @Scott The Scot and it just fucking whiff.

But do not worry guys, apparently Kenshi is fine (by some people standards).

I never considered you at all.
Pretty cool how they fix whiffs on some other characters to introduce them to Kenshi. Kenjutsu's combos weren't hard enough to pull off obviously. :p

upon further review. I believe its actually something to do with possible run changes made this past patch. not 100% sure

The more i test this the more im confused actually. Run changes have something to do with it for sure but whiffs are super inconsistent and way more often on some (not all) female characters then others.

At this point i don't even know why i bother, Kenshi is total trash atm and if i didn't love this character i would just stop playing MK X (no other character clicks for me), which is probably what i should do. Atleast maybe till next patch.

Sorry for the Offtopic but i remmeber Months ago at some point of time the b1 started to connect hard after ex df1 in Kenjutsu ...
At least NRS showed us something that if you f*ck something - f*ck it hard (like they do it with this poor Character).

I love the "Kenshi is fine" arguments. The guy has nothing to work with at all. Its just downplaying the rest of the cast by pointing out every move he has that is somewhat acceptable, but he has nothing that excels to really make your case. In another game sure hes fine, but In this game he is the worst.

Yeah if you ignore the fact that he is a zoning character that is punished for zoning and that is punished for using his spacing tools. Don't worry be is fine it isn't like he has a close up game or anything. Because you know who needs to be viable at any point in the screen he is fine *meanwhile the person telling you this plays a top 10 character and has never touched kenshi*

I'm able to win a good amount of matches online with kenshi but im really wondering if this shit this character has is holding me back to be even more competitive. The netcode even makes him worse with stuff just not coming out and now whiffing issues wtf NRS.

SAVE YOURSELF!!!! THE PAIN ISNT WORTH IT!!! Seriously the only reason to play kenshi is if you are a kenshi loyalist. We kenshi loyalists are retarded for sticking with him. I think all the other kenshi loyalists would agree we are retards for sticking with him...
