Super change is welcome, though, so now -5 is the cutoff for complete safety.

Nope, Hawkgirl now has the fastest super at 4f

She still sucks though, bitch got nothin.. some sort of mobility buff is all i wanted tbh, be it in flight, walkspeed or better dashes to help with her disgustingly bad matchups

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Am I the only person seeing this patch indirectly made Killer Frost the best character in the game?

The nerfs, fixes and buffs were not so much of an earthquake as expected. Nice job done by NRS!

how

Dude, when have I ever said GL is mediocre? Never and you are very correct in saying that most of his tools are GDLK, but what Im saying is that GL is not as bad as everyone says he is. I'm saying he has his flaws like a lot of other characters too. The only thing I wanna know is why did GL lose his OTGs if they were sooooo dumb but WW kept hers? If can answer that one question for me I will be quiet. Just give me that one answer....thats all I want. And for the record I'm curious when people tell you Hawkgirl and KF are bullshit do you not say that they have their problems? I'm mean cause I mean I bet when people tell you all that they are dumb you are able to tell them about their problems as characters, and when the same people call bullshit, I bet the first thing you say is if you played them youd know. You never really know a characters problems until you pick up that character yourself. Its like when people said all you had to do was pick subzero and hide behind the clone, and then when they did that they got mopped up.

How can I possibly answer that loaded question...I don't work for NRS. Trust me, if I did work for NRS, Green Lantern would have been fucked, 5 times over and more than Black Adam, with absolutely NOT A SINGLE drop of lube. UNF!

I'm not really arguing with YOU and I certainly don't think you are dumb, but it is insane that you upset those stupid OTG's were taken away...while GL has so many other tools and what not to work with.

In regards to other players criticizing my characters...yes I'll give you that. Frost just doesn't really have any problems...but HawkGirl has issues that non representatives probably just don't notice...but those are programming errors...not standard tools. Green Lantern has amazing tools...HawkGirl has one. LOL

 

[Fred Marvel]

i will say better GL players than me like KT and DJ up play him alot but that doesnt change his matchups
IM NOT SAYING GREEN LANTERN IS BAD OR NOT GOOD
but you guys completely ignore that he has these MUs and any time i try to say he isnt as good as people think im labeled a "downplayer" and ignored smh

 

[trustinme]

lol who do you play?

killer frost.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Axel redd is m2dave, nobody will convince me otherwise.

axel redd is that idiot catch 22

 

[RM Truth]

*sigh*
its sad nobody will even consider when i say things about lantern
the GL forums have 8 MUs listed as disadvantaged and MMH & Zatanna still under review
do you guys really think im making this up out of thin air? smh

Maybe that's because not one single person seems to agree with you.

 

[Fred Marvel]

Maybe that's because not one single person seems to agree with you.

about his matchups? and not a single one of the people bashing/reporting me are GL mains either hmm....

 

[GGA Jeremiah]

I feel like a lot of people are overlooking the fact that b3/f3 now do more damage which is awesome, and probably means unclashable damage is going to be a lot better

This is another small buff for Batgirl. Her B3, and F3 already did more damage than others. When her extra chip damage trait is out, also the b3, and f3 damage should take off a nice chunk.

 

[RM Truth]

about his matchups? and not a single one of the people bashing/reporting me are GL mains either hmm....

You don't need to play a character to have an opinion. I'm not saying that anyone is right or wrong, as I'm tired of this argument, but not even the notable GL mains agree with you.

speaking without any sort of favoritism (at least I'll try) I think GL is one of the most balanced characters in the game. He's GOOD. But I have to agree, he does have about 7 matchups that I'm like damn I can't do anything in lol...let's not speak for post patch MUs by the way because the WHOLE game is changing. Lantern is a meter whore for ex, now MB interactables is NOT an option as GL. that meter is way too valuable.

 

[Orochi]

GL unfavorable MU's

1.Superman - I've had this even, def even after the patch.
2.Raven - i have this even mainly because GL bops the floor with her when he's close and his resets work really well vs her, she wins from far range though.
3.Sinestro - Even but disadvantage when sinestro has trait. He's one of the better zoners cause he's got some upclose tools.
4.Deathstroke - This is def even at best, might be in GLs favor.
5.Zod - Not sure about this one I need to play pig sometime, He def fucks shit up when he has his trait.
6.Cyborg - This I had as disadvantage but after a couple of sets against good cyborgs I'm leaning towards even now.
7.Batman - Batman is even, whoever gains the life lead earns the advantage.
8.Batgirl - Even IMO
9.Martian Manhunter - I don't know this matchup yet but no Martians want to play me
10. Zatanna - even, at least in my experience online vs Deg, who knows maybe he bops GLs now but still not sure

 

[A New Angel Is Advent]

The only thing helping my bad mood is the GL downplaying. That's good stuff.

 

[Fred Marvel]

You don't need to play a character to have an opinion. I'm not saying that anyone is right or wrong, as I'm tired of this argument, but not even the notable GL mains agree with you.

you dont need to play him to have an opinion but to bash someone who has mained him since april for talking about him and not even considering what he says is ignorant, the notable Gls havent said anything (about the MUs i posted) as i type this

 

[DharmaBum]

WHAT!? They didn't add turtles to dlc or patch!? But I love turtles! Wtf NRS where are the freaking turtles! I demand turtles! Gawd! Turtles or I quit. (Decided to conform and chime in with my irrelevant complaining like the lot of you)

 

[Fred Marvel]

.

you think Batgirl is even....and Raven............. and Superman..................
you think GL has 0 bad MUs?????
i just wont comment further

The MB interactables isnt gonna be an option for a lot of characters now. Its an amazing tool it should never have been so cheap.

" Increased the amount of block damage on his Hook Kick (Hard Attack)."

Behold, the most useless buff ever.

 

[JRosa21]

To be honest a lot of people feel like GL has been flying under the radar for some time. To some extent I agree but then I start to wonder, is he just flying under the radar or is his not being able to contend with the top 5 echelon that makes him go unnoticed. I'm not sure I think he is still really good and since a lot of others are getting nerfed he is gonna jump up a couple spots on the tier list, but I see a lot of people trying to say he's broken and that's just not the case. I also see a lot of downplaying too, that's not the case either. He's just well rounded I feel with his flaw being he needs a lot of meter and struggles against the zoners. That's all.

Directional Hard Attacks· Applying a Meter Burn to Directional Hard (Back + Hard or Forward + Hard) Attacks now inflicts 50% more damage.· You now take 50% less damage when hit during the armored portion of a Meter Burned directional Hard Attack.

So is the damage the same when hit since you take less? This is the only part I don't get

 

[PunkMafia83]

Time for a podcast pig?

 

[NY_Jailhouse]

this USED to be a world of dictators

 

[zoofs]

what exactly do they mean by shazams trait having proper damage scaling? theyre basically nerfing it? lmfao.

and standing 3 having more damage on block? loooool they truly hate this character

You hit them with MB b3. Does 50% more damage to them

You get hit while MB b3. Meaning... you did MB b3, and your armor gets hit. you Take 50% less damage.
