Exactlyagree, SG much easier to pick up and do damage with. The hype wont really last for them.
I totally agree. He's not the easiest to pick up. I really see alot of people trying him out, but abandoning him after seeing how awkward some of his button are.People are really over looking his trait after d2 in combos business.
It means that he can now convert from Max range into trait vortex without losing much damage.
Add to that having trait 2-3 times a game, a 5 f air to air/ JP in, and an armored launcher with more range to catch zoners; he will definitely be strong.
Bandwagon players will struggle to migrate and will probably go to Supergirl or someone more straight forward. He isn't particularly easy to play, although powerful in experienced hands.
they wont be nearly as awkward as they used to be because of the buffs. I thought i wouldnt pick him up because of the awkwardness but its not as bad as it used to be for sure.I totally agree.

How are his buttons any different? They didn't change. They added a move, and they gave him an additional button to extend b3. His existing buttons did not change at all, so I don't see how they 'aren't as bad as they used to be'.they wont be nearly as awkward as they used to be because of the buffs.

its more his gameplan and combos. his db3 b3 combo is much easier and he always has something to do now. the only thing that is remotely different about firestorm is his movement and his bd input. hes going to get picked up by everyone now that he is clearly defined on what to do with him.How are his buttons any different?

db3 -> b3 isn't any easier, the timing was what created difficulty with that, not the spacing. His buttons are still stubby and not the best, his neutral is the exact same as it was except that combos will likely be ended with trait charge setups rather than damage or restands, and you'd also be surprised at how much people struggle with a simple alternative input for MT. He's the same just with an actually useful trait, and if people didn't like his playstyle before then they still won't now.its more his gameplan and combos. his db3 b3 combo is much easier and he always has something to do now. the only thing that is remotely different about firestorm is his movement and his bd input. hes going to get picked up by everyone now that he is clearly defined on what to do with him.
If your OS'ing his bd3 into b3, the timing issue doesnt matter. With the b3 buff he now can convert max damage on anyone who presses on your staggers with no loss to ur turn. Before u had to compromise depending on the string for a forward dash followup. Now it's universal;db3 -> b3 isn't any easier, the timing was what created difficulty with that, not the spacing.

FS upplayers will try to jump on the bandwagon and get rocked by Supergirl secondaries and zoners. His hype train won't last long.
Me too. I've not only been using it for it's intended purpose, but I've been using it as a sort of bait too. If your opponent is hanging back, just use that little bit of time to charge your trait for a second. Almost as soon as you start charging it, I noticed MOST enemies will advance on you to stop you from charging. Punished several people today from just trying to jump in on me.Just played my first ranked set with him. I’m loving this trait build move omg
Sorry, I am new to FS, what is the OS for his db3 into b3?!If your OS'ing his bd3 into b3, the timing issue doesnt matter.

Now it's universal;
This includes anti air ex db3 reads.
Wouldn't bother with these, theres new stuff on the horizon.So there are some new fire combos to try out. Here's a video of some set ups that are pretty lit.

I posted the tech awhile back however my friend black made a video explaining it in detail.Sorry, I am new to FS, what is the OS for his db3 into b3?!
