I understand Champ, but this top players are doing good not because of the character only but of how good of players they are and they will always look for characters that they believe they will perform good with at the beginning. some nerfs are not being needed just yet really.
The thing is that sometimes these characters are just easy to learn and be good with, but after some time when the game fully evolve they end up not being that good and if they get nerfed it will affect the game later when players develop better skills with other characters that take longer to learn and master or just got good buffs per say. Shinnok took already an universal heavy hit having his EX sparks nerfed and with this he was way better than when he got his latest buffs, this affected necromancer zoning most of all but also hurt the others too badly, Shinnok was better IMO before the latest buffs without the sparks nerfs, but Yes I consider bone shaper got absolutely too good with the re stand projectile and the +24 ex hs, but that advantage is gone and char is just very good while the other variation kind of suck now. if people are doing good with the character it is because I consider Shinnok a good character and top players jumping to him and other players not knowing the matchup, of course theres gonna be an outcry, but no reason to touch this character anymore, I do consider he is easy a top 10 candidate or possibly top 5 on bone shaper as things look right now. But all this crying on this site should stop because good players as mustard woundcowboy DR Detroit and others are pretty much being discredited with their performance, start learning matchups and crying less thats all I could say. sorry for the spelling lol!!!!!!!
