Really? I feel like these buffs turned him into something he's not. With Ryu getting cr.MK xx fireball as a blockstring and E.Ryu getting 950 life, these already similar characters are becoming even MORE similar.And we E.Ryu mains rejoice!
Seriously, I'm so stoked for these buffs.
Evil Ryu filled a niche before as the resident glass-cannon. You could say Seth and Gouki do that, but I'd call those two 'swiss army knives' instead of 'glass cannons' like Evil Ryu.
I would've been happy if he got a life nerf and more offensive buffs.
Imagine if F+MK put an aerial opponent into a juggle state. SRK FADC F+MK xx HK tatsu could carry them pretty far to the corner, or SRK FADC F+MK xx ex tatsu U1 for some huge damage.
I don't know, I guess I'm just a bit sad that to become 'better', he had to become more like Ryu instead of being his own thing. Sure, he has a dedicated low-crush with F+MK and awesome resets with LK tatsu ~ jab FADC under them, etc but still...
