Personally, I think Eustace is really strong, he does take a lot of effort, and I feel like he's the only character in the game that needs to take advantage of their entire kit to win consistently, and having so many tools that Eustace does makes him pretty hard, and daunting. I do think he's one of the coolest characters in the game though.

For Yuel you forgot to mention that not only did she lose the neutral stance parry but EVEN if you time her "new" parry it can no longer beat multi hits like DPs and supers, so you will be punished for hitting the parry and reading your opponent, not only losing your turn but then getting exploded off of a counter hit. So not only is her parry needing very precise timing but you will also be punished for trying to parry things you could parry previously with the auto neutral stance parry before.
@nelomalkevain412916 күн бұрын
This, this right here is the real problem. The overhead is at least somewat excusable as a change, at least it's unreactable even if the reward is far smaller than the risk you take for thorwing it out, but the parry change is absolutley stupid. This counter was SPECIFICALLY made to counter dps (since you could combo off it) and now you are telling me now I get PUNISHED FOR IT ?! Now dps beat Yuel's stance PERIOD (you can't spot dodge them and the only hope you have is to deactivate the stance and pray the lord you block in time), its like if Vaseraga lost his U follow-up from walk. It almost feels like who made this change was abolutley demolished by a random Yuel online because they kept hitting her with mids. I am absolutley speechless.

i've found the people most positive about current yuel is yuel players. she has a really strong vortex now, especially with 236l oki, and what people never mention in these patch notes reads but yools always praise is stanceless 22u and guren, our conversion game is so much better now. it sucks that CH state got essentially removed from stance, and now she can only counter iirc 4 dps, and only about half of the cast's supers, and there arent any stance conversions, but we can still just block. like, worst comes to worst, we block and do a c.h or 66h punish. even the loss of throw~u (whiff)td.5m td.2m isnt that bad when throw~u td.44 td.66 td.2m~u does the same job. yeah her gimmick doesnt beat everything but, worst comes to worst we just do what everyone else does, and what we often were supposed to do before, just with a little less damage, requiring just a little more thought.

I wouldn't even mind if she was low tier due to everyone else being strong, but the lack of reward on the stance overhead outside of counter feels pretty bad. They cooked a little with her being able to stance out of ultimate, though. There's some interesting new corner combo's involving her stance 2H in the corner now, but it just feels like a bad trade. Before, people had to make a commitment to pressing a low button against her to beat corner stance pressure which worked beautifully with her 2M prior.

He can do DP loops easier and off raging strike. . .and His U grenade became one of the best corner trap tools in the game (it doesn't disappear on block now). again thank you, and keep up the content.

I think Nier is much more mid tier thanks to the nerfs. She straight can't play the game anymore without Death which the most damaging nerf imo being that you can't use RS without Death both being alive and unsummoned. Regular combos aren't too bad with the reload routes but spending stocks on pressure is rough and the opponent can force you into recovery time just by teching your grab or BCing you. And without the raging strikes stuff like her anti air is so much more inconsistent so without her having death all she can get on you 90% of the time is far L and you can jump at her like a Kangaroo during her recovery since she literally can't get anything even if she gets the counter 2h. I think she'd be low high if they didn't nerf her raging strikes but without that her states are so polarizing and certains MUs shit on her really badly now.

Seeing Lancelot at S is the clearest giveaway that Diaphone does not touch Lancelot at all. As a Lancelot master, he is hot garbage this patch. One thing he failed to mention was that he lost his B&B corner combo, so now he has low health, least damage outside of a corner, and now bottom 5 lowest corner combo damage. He needs twice as many touches to win as other characters. Then all the other nerfs making him far easier to punish. Lancelot is B tier at best and C at worst.

I do agree that it feels like Diaphone doesn't understand how much has changed for Lancelot's combo game. His b&b is shorter and uses more resources for proper okizeme, his wallcling to 5m can no longer combo which misses out on what used to be his strongest combo of 623U> wallcling 5m> 5HHH> 623H> CH> Raging Strike> CH> 214MM> CH> 214HHHH> CM> 236236U. I think it dealt 9650. Overall, Lancelot does feel like he took a major hit to what feels like more than half of his combo routes, but I would still put him around low A to high B tier imo.

It must be stated that Djeeta’s anti air game is more consistently rewarding now that she doesn’t need levels or CH for 5U to give her a juggle combo. At around round start distance she can take you close enough to the corner with 214H(x2) that the enemy will reach the wall and stay in range for f.M 236H to connect. Having that kind of consistent anti air dominance makes for a Katalina-tier glow up to neutral, since the greater incentive to present only grounded options lowers mental stack and winds up granting the Djeeta/Kat more opportunities to jump in response. Definitely a huge buff to neutral game…which I suppose is why I’m seeing more Katalina than Djeeta online now. I assume most players picked the former because they WANT Street fighter neutral and only every picked Djeeta to skip to the fun corner dice rolls as quickly as possible with 214H, and when they realized they can’t do that….

The H rekka nerf for Djeeta made me drop her. The thing is, without that wallbounce, you pretty much HAVE to first push to corner then charge 5U or charge fireball to do anything relevant; in a game where charged characters don't have to charge their specials. When you want to play her normally as a 5 star ease of use char, basic ass combos just does less damage. In order to do any significant damage, you have to plan out some specifics starters, and fundamentals will just be ineffective with her. I'm not saying she's bad, she IS strong, but she feels unconforable to play and the 5 stars are a big fat LIE. Yes, all of that because of H rekka no longer wallbouncing. Meh, I'll just play Gran. (Speaking of Gran, 4 years, it took 4 years to finally fix properly M boot. At first too powerful, then for 6 months so shit you could heavy punish the move ON HIT, then just useless until now) Thank you for reading.

Also, not sure why you're bringing up Belial being strong in vanilla but acting like Ferry wasn't literally the meta for years. The fact is, Belial has the same number of AWT Rising Top 8s as Djeeta, Charlotta, Lowain, Grimnir, Metera, and Narmaya. Is he top tier? Yes, but he isn't game-breaking like the 4~5 characters that were sitting above him prior to 1.50

@@catspawSeconding everything you said. People get so irrational about character balance. If Belial is the boogeyman of this patch, I think I'm fine with that. He's really not nearly as crazy as the characters who were above him. There will always be top tier. We can't just keep crying for nerfs about evert top tier that pops up.
@Zevox8715 күн бұрын
Agreed. Belial was always quite good, no question there, but he was never "oh, this character definitely needs nerfs" top-tier good like Nier, Seox, Siegfried, etc. That he won one big tournament doesn't change that. And most of the buffs that he did get were not big - only the 236U buff is particularly notable - and they did nerf a clear abuseable tool, the guard crush on 214U. He may well be top-tier, perhaps even top 1, now, that's possible. But his changes in this patch make perfect sense given where he was. He's the character who was high-tier enough to already be strong but not top-tier enough to be a nerf target, and so benefitted a lot more than from his personal changes alone because everyone above him got knocked down a peg and he didn't. There's always someone like that, because the line on who gets nerfs always has to be drawn somewhere. If it wasn't Belial, it'd be Beatrix.

those tierlists are not similar at all, when you consider that the other guys have c and d tier characters, what is just stupid to me.

Dont forget that rising normals scale more so now ferry instant overheads, zeta/grimnir fuzzys do less damage I still think the ferry nerf was stupid

I honestly don't see how Grimnir is in s tier. 214u "normalization" is not a normalization, it's now not just punishable by everyone, it's punishable with cm by like half the cast. With universal damage nerf from ults it's now punishable with more damage for the same meter than it actually does. Fh is now a reaction check, 214l is not a ch launcher, plus the universal changes... And what do we get in return? 236u speed and 236m frames buffs are nice, but aside from it, buffer is purely a QoL, his routes with dashes never were that hard, and 66m / 66h range buff is laughworthy, 236m, despite the buff, is still only plus when it leaves at a range where you can't meaningfully use it, midscreen extensions with bigger dash hitstun and 623m changes let you extend midscreen routes with upper seal but how often do you need it anyway. I don't think there is a single better MU except vs characters like nier or lance which were almost only nerfed, and he didn't struggle particularly much against them. I dont get how did he end up higher than before with only a couple of actually meaningfull buffs and overall stronger cast

I agree. Idk why he put him S tier. He didn't change much , and he's still requires some execution.
@_Deez16 күн бұрын
He's actually not the only one. I don't remember who else put him high but they had him in top 2. Don't know shit about Grimnir so I have no opinion.

If from now on grimnir starts winning all the big tournaments, in a parallel dimension, then dia is right. In the real world this proves that all tierlists are total bullshit.

I picked up Yuel because of this patch and she feels great. People dooming on her are hilarious. She's mostly the same just with a few additional opportunities to force opponents to respect or guess. My only complaint about her is unchanged from this patch: I wish her stance was incorporated into combos more.
@tomfoolery841913 күн бұрын
cant wait for next patch where 2B's parry, walking forward, throws, and doing normals, will cost SKL and she receives more nerfs :DDDD the fuck was the point of adding her to the game? Granblue players hate her, and apparently so does the devs

If you call "balance" to buff one of the most OP characters that literally won EVO, making him even more OP then sure it's really balanced now
