People always find something to complain about, at least its not about Paul.
Yeah, i didn't got the low damage thing in T7, his damage was pretty low on tag indeed, that in order to play jin you had to get a character with a good wall carry and combo filler damage to play, those tags were the ones that did most of the job, jin's job was only to harass with pokes until he launches someone which was hard considering his best launcher was WS2.
The only thing he never had was a 14 frames whiff punisher launcher like the mishimas always had, so he couldn't whiff punish as many of them could without risking a lot.
Now all jin players prayers were heard and he got the buffs we always asked for, and them some, and his damage is actually not so bad, he can do 45% midscreen and +15% more with the help of a wall, he has powerfull wall carrry and the stages of T7 aren't as big as in TTT2 from what i've seen some stages have mostly about the same range.
The EWHF launching on normal hit was the only thing i think he needed, but they went ahead and gave him a safe F4, F4~cds~cancel is safe as well, EWHF into CDS 3 combo for nearly 50% midscreen, an armored launcher, a sidestep attack that crumple stun on counter.
standing 4 now is combo-able on counter, CDS~3 is combo-able with B21 on regular hit, CDS~1+2 now launches vertical, on wall hit grants a free EWHF before standing 1 into DB223 combo at the wall
Faster recovery on EWHF and now is +5 on block, counter damage of this move is insane really.
In add to his new Whiff punish tool, he still has parry, so he can parry last hits and be at +15~16 and get that launcher to work, which is something i haven't seen yet considering how rare is to find a jin that mastered his parry.
9f throw that is almost impossible to break on reaction (will abuse that shit for days if stays in the game, which will condition his other throws to work better haha)
Countless ways to combo out of any launcher into S! if he hasn't used EWHF for the earlier S!, even wakeup 3 into WS4 into stabding 4 is a real thing now (Thank you Cherry Berry Mango lol) Wave Dash 4 now has a S! filler, in TTT2 he couldn't extend combos from that.
The list is so big that i feel like listing all the good shit will be a freaking bible on a single post, i wake up every single day saying to myself "Fucking Jin in T7 man"
He has no real weakness now, the only weakness he has is you not being able to keeping up with the character options or getting outplayed or should i say, fully learn what to block how to block, if you know all other command list and how to block them, jin is basically invincible.
Jin players are watching T7 as is if it is Christmas, and it is, he has all the goods, that if you actually lose playing jin its your own fault now, we're glad ppl are hating on Shaheem, Kazuya, and shit, which they should, just leave our character alone he has gotten a lot of scorpion treatment for too long.
1, UF3, 1, UF 1 3 3+4, wall splat, FF 3 4 3
, B4 (or something like that it's been 10 years lol) and it took 90%. They crowd went INSANE lol. I felt like I could float from the feeling of power haha!!! Good times.
