IGAU: Official Patch Notes v1.06 (9/24/2013) + "Mystery Skin & NRS Live Stream regarding changes"

Losing is learning; winning is succeeding.
I was upset with Sinestro before because his projectile will miss anyone that's ducking except for my main, Lex, which makes it an easy matchup for him. He can just spam projectiles at Lex all day & there's not much Lex can do to avoid it. I was really hoping they'd fix it & they didn't, so yeah... I'm still upset about that. Then again, it may have more to do with the size of Lex's hitbox, so who knows?

this is going nowhere...I'll never understand people who complain ab aquaman. At first he was a bit broken, now he's just top tier, top 3...but fair.
4 of the most argued top 5 characters all got nerfed pretty decently (very surprised to see WW keep her OTG)...BUT Aquaman got away with literally almost nothing, despite being top 3. That is my point.

easy to say that when there is no proof right now I'm seeing it right now in training mode and a lantern that does b1 and blocks right away makes d1 look like crap. also kf countter doesn't work against b1.

Now I know you're dumb.


I'm doing it in training mode as we speak. B1 is at least -9 on block and if she does it by itself, he's getting punished with d1 slide. She can't parry b1 but she can parry the follow ups from the string.

If your gonna come at me, come correct.

As far as Black Adam:

So now I dont need to worry about divekicks at all. His Lightening wont knock me out of the air. He cant take 75% of my health per match with just his trait, and he cant run away nearly as well. AND I dont have to block low???

Where does this leave him on tier lists??? What weapons does he have left? Some advantage on his strings, an awesome J2?? What else? This smells like he's going to drop to B tier.

What is it that u wish this had or didn't have
I'm just tired to see these patch notes every time because a 70% of it = bullshit...
For example 1: I'm happy for Sinestro, CYBORG, Shazam, Lex, Lobo, Joker, Flash, BATGIRL, but other staff is... not enough, not enough.

For example 2: Too bad that Doomsday, CЯtwoman, nightwing have received a little bonus. These buffs are ridiculous. this is it

Take away the trait. What do you think makes Aquaman so good that he's top 3? Im genuinely curious, and not trying to start shit.
 
You guys acting like Adam got destroyed are hilarious.
at least against my charcater, yeah he sucks now.

the matchup was already even or worse for BA
cyborg can iafb the entire match now because he wont trade with lightning ever. the BA has to guess on extremely negative black magic, duckwalk, or random divekick now. and his forward dash is ass too lol

You all need to worry about catwoman. She is getting in there now that most of your projectiles will either be absorbed or evaded. Her evade buff will even allow her to now punish some strings with evade trait cancels like killerfrost parry. MEOW
 
Even if new characters take over the top spot it wont be because they got better. There is no denying that with this patch comes a smaller gap between the high tier and the low tier. And tbh what more can you ask for?
Obviously I'm not asking for more. I'm asking for less. Though I was hoping Flash's damage would be traded for speed...not just flat out nerfed.

d2, f1, b1 all really solid normals
FTD is good
Solid damage
Water shield for laming out opponents if they're close to death or to stall for life leads
Trident chip damage

He's already really good without trait being thrown in there, really. It's not broken stuff...it's just really good and he gets boosted by his trait. Batman is the same way, but got a number of other nerfs in the process.

NRS needs to explain this soon, some guys are saying GL lost his vortex some saying he didnt i just need clarification, if he vortex is gone he is mid tier and im dropping the game
really dont understand why he was nerfed and a character who is just as good as him like deathstroke or Frost wasnt, not saying they needed nerfs but GL definitely didnt.
all this overratedness and up play of GL is ridiculous
