I think that most people here will agree that Swarm Queen is the undisputed best variation for D'vorah. Swarm Queen is even regularly in the discussion for Top 5 character/variation in the whole game.
I am of the opinion that as this game evolves there will be almost NO reason to play either of her other two variations in a competitive environment. Part of this is because Swarm Queen is just that good, which is fine, but another part is because I feel that her other variations are missing some tools that could bring them closer to Swarm Queen.
Here are 3 changes I would make for Venomous and Brood Mother:
Venomous
1) Can Dash Cancel out of Bug Spray with same frame data as Swarm Queen.
2) New string option from B1 and/or F2 (or F3)
3) New ovipositor air-ok special, like a mid-air Ovipositor Rush.
Brood Mother
1) Can Dash Cancel out of Bug Burst with same frame data as Swarm Queen.
2) New string option from B1 and/or F2 (or F3)
3) New crawler special that hits overhead (on seperate timer from the other crawler)
This would give the other two variations the same 50/50 options as Swarm Queen with less damage potential in most cases (unless you spend meter) with new specials and strings added to further add flavor and differentiate the variations. What are your thoughts?
