Dicks with a future
We haven't really had this thread yet, though people have tilted at a bit in others. Since it's still Theory Fighting Week™, might as well put it up and let people get their thoughts out there. Black Adam seems to be in a pretty much unanimous consensus on who took the hardest hit and the biggest tumble down the tier list, but who do you guys think is going to make the biggest jump up it? This isn't only a question of who got awesome buffs, but who's benefitting the most overall from the changing ecosystem, whether they got changed even at all.
To start - I think it's gonna be Lobo. He's going to be a mid-range monster now based on the range of his chain moves, and only probably get scarier the closer inside he gets (i.e., getting into czar toss range, getting into close normal mixup range) along with nuke shells bringing his damage pretty much all around up, between improved combos and beefier raw shots - hell, his meter burn pump shot may now do almost 8% on chip! His bad wakeups are going to be turning into pretty darn good wakeups, too. He already had damage, and now he has more notable space control coupled with better ways to set it up. I see him climbing from nearly rock bottom to at least dead in the middle of the cast, and maybe better than that.
