Told you. If the choices are "deal with it" or "move on", I packed my bags before I even answered.
Watch when you try FA.

They really need to add a FUCK YOU NRS mood changer. Glad I quit the game due to it's inability to perform Online, or I'd be pretty enraged right now. Oh well... Back to BF [They can't nerf me out there], no fucks given.
Please bro don’t give up on Jacqui. Who’s knows maybe in another patch they’ll give her some buffs again just please I ask you STOP giving up. Stay positive! Not related but, this world have too many negatives already. I heard her (shotgun) variation didn’t get untouched so just be grateful that variation didn’t get horribly nerf like FA did. For right now calm down. It’s not the end of the world if a fighting game character is nerf. Strive for hope and you won’t be down. That's what keeps me going forward.
Yea SG Jacqui is pretty much the same and will likely be the base variation. We've been debating a little which we thought was better between FA and SG, but now it seems clear. FA still might be ok overall, but these changes are a huge downgrade.
Yeah I agree It's quite dumb to thumb down a character that are low tier already in the first place. I'm surprised that Kenshi didn't get any treatment in this patch. I saw some of his forums and his players are asking for changes but NRS didn't do anything....but I don't know. I guess in a way looking at it from a real life point of view, the Top tier characters are probably the most used and probably the main reason why this game still sell like hotcakes despite the flaws. It might be a dumb thought because I'm not expert in this type of stuff. However what I have notice for a while is that demanded or popular characters in most video games always seem to get the best treatment than others who are unpopular. Just look at the treatment the mascots get any fighting game. I could be wrong but this is what I've been noticing.
Kind of. I mean it's a game where Quan Chi, Erron, Cassie, Lao, etc get their other variations buffed while mid to low tier characters get their best variation nerfed. How does this motivate me to hop in my car and drive to locals to face Lao every week when my mid tier is getting nerfed?? Feels like these decisions are made based on WHO is using the character as a Top player and not THE characters themselves. Stupidest shit ever. I'm getting angrier as I type so I'm gonna bail.
Are you talking about tourney players? …………..wow Idk why NRS would just solely focus on them. This game seem to be unbalance on a mechanical standpoint then if that’s the case. We’ll all I can tell you is to chill don’t pull your hair out or anything just relax and breathe. Just hang in there like you said and don’t give up or quit. ATM focus on what you still can do with Jacqui or any other of your mains. I sorry if this patch angers you.
The thing is that this doesn't just affect B2. It affects F12~up rocket as well.
More push back and stun. Only a RC S1 is guaranteed. Anything else can be countered.
Seems to be the trend, yeah. Scorpion and Liu Kang's block strings were both nerfed to be unviable for repeat run cancel block pressure. Takeda was given a more sensible nerf to stop his block infinite shenanigans in Ronin. Shinnok got his looping block string nerfed, as did Kung Lao, and now Jacqui.
They're not doing a 180. They don't think you should be jailed into guaranteed followups. They've been nerfing this type of stuff since the start. They still have some things to catch, such as Liu's loops still being possible, Cage altogether, etc.
That is pulling a 180. DF Liu Kang is built around run cancel pressure- ie, jailing from one string into another. That's how the character was designed to be played. Now his main block string (F213) can only jail on block into another F213 if your execution is frame perfect (good luck with that in a real match). Tempest Lao was specifically buffed to have his hat jail, so this kind of thing isn't an accident. Same with Shinnok.
