Is heihachi low tier cause everyone is just better or low tier cause he sucks? Or is it not low tier since FR?
Heihachi is retarded good in FR now.
F4 grans a free df12 in the wall, the damage he can pull off from there is just as retarded as Akuma, Kazuya, Steve and King, so crouching on the corner against heihachi means death now.
His Hunting Hawk now screws on regular hit.
B4 is now screws on CH
bf23 is stupid good
Thunder GodFist is stupid safe when blocked, can loop into itself for retarded damaging juggles and do an extra EWGF into Bf23 for the screw into whatever you want.
Heihachi can now either EWGF you to death or TGF you for trying to crouch EWGF, very risky to sidestep since his B4 now frame traps if it hits and CH screws if it counters, so you got to face him as you would face T7.0 Kazuya, where sidesteps were bad.
JDCR and Mainman were discussing this topic a few weeks ago and both came into agreement that some of those buffs were too much, the F4 guaranteed df12 is retarded good at the wall, hunting hawk launching for a screw too.
Kazuya and Lord Akumer are doing death combos, even if Akuma needs everything he has, he can chunk half of your life with 1 bar just by landing a d3~hadoken fadc, 1~lp.shoryuken into whatever, it does nearly 60% without a wall.
The patch has some good stuff, but there is still a lot to balance, King on the floor break stage will become a thing in the future, if that rage drive not floor breaking goes this way in the final version, expect Bryan and every pinning rage drives to do the same.
