Question - Kobu Jutsu Do you think her pressure should be normalized?

[james1926]

With a patch coming soon, it will be very interesting to see what NRS will decide to do with her, but I would like to know the community's opinion on this. Do you think the pressure on her Kobu Jutsu variation is too strong and should be normalized, or do you think she's fine?

 

[Sage Leviathan]

Eh?

It's probably fine as is. How would you change it?

 

[RagingRicans]

Let's just remove Tanya out the game. Everything good she has is too much for people. They already butchered Pyromancer, so Kobu is next.

Can someone send me a $5 psn code, so I can find out? But like... Please though.

 

[ColdBoreMK23]

Only buff weaker characters. Needing leads to the death k a character.

 

[xInfra Deadx]

She's broke.

I must be missing something, was a patch announced?

OT: While there are options out of her pressure it is quite a big risk to the opponent. I do think EX Tonfa swipe having two hits of armour is un-necessary.

Where are all the Quan Chi players saying she block infinites him? Surely they must be here somewhere.

 

[Johnny San]

Why nerf when there are ways to beat it? Or are strong tools not allowed?

 

[Lumpymoomilk]

nah who cares I can still beat her with Goro a fair bit of the time and Goro is bottom 1.

 

[Scott The Scot]

Lol no her pressure isn't as good as everyone says imo. I went to the lab with Tanya and couldn't believe that I had that much trouble with her. Holes, holes and negative frames.

 

[Mighty Durpyena]

Predator's broke.

Fixed it for you

Yes, there's another patch coming, although there is no ETA. Paulo posted this in another thread, but I don't recall which one.

She has no 50/50, her tele cancel pressure is not on the level of other characters run cancels, her ex Tonfa throw is inconsistent, and she has short stubby normals other than f2 and b1.

She is fine. The game is good right now. It doesn't need another patch.

The game could make the garbage characters a little less garbage and leave the top ones as is though.

Someone thinks differently, hence there being another patch coming out. We just have no idea what to expect.

Hopefully it's not the last one. However, if it is, hopefully it's a massive balance patch.

Touche.

Thanks for linking that. I'm on my phone and I can't be bothered to find it on here, lol.

That logic..

Look up a few posts at Muffin's post.

It doesn't need it. If it comes, so be it. But it doesn't need it

Kobu's pressure is good and all, but I don't think it's too good - don't forget that her df2 strings are unsafe unless you're willing to spend a bar of meter.

Though tbh, whether or not I'd agree with a 'normalisation' depends entirely on what OP means by 'normalised' - it's one of those words that can mean just about anything on this site lol.

not only two hits of armor but it hits as two hits on the 1st rekka (poor crystalline tremor) and 2nd rekka after the ex one is safe,
imo its one of the better ex moves in game.
