Hid dmg output is through the roof now guys. If he touches you two times, in risen emperor, and it happens that you dont have breaker, 80% of your life is gone. He hits like a truck.
I also dont agree that they nerfed the block adv of f34, but there are certain mindgames now. What i mean:
After f3 on block, his stagger is legit now, if you can condition your opponent. That wasnt the case before cause you couldnt cancel off f34.
Even more of a reason now to use more throws so you can open them up with f34. His throw game has skyrocketed now.
Since he has 2 armor breaks right now opponent might not break away immidiately.
He seems way more viable right now but he requires great conditioning.
