General/Other - Tempest Am I the only one who hates the 2 frame link?

I wish they would add a few frames of hit advantage (like 4 or 5) so it would be completely 100% dependable. I hate opting to 26% punishes or using meter at around 100+ ping after the tough footsies game midscreen against the Dvorah's and Alien's of the world. It feels not worth it at all to go for. PLus it won't be broke since it's not a mixup and you can't really do anything new with it. A few more frames of hit advantage would be helpful.

Also 112124xx orbiting hat should work on everybody and not just females midscreen. That seems like a very unnecessary and weird hitbox issue. Also it would be a much easier hitconfirm. I would also like 112124 spin to work midscreen too, but I'll settle for first two. Paulo Pls

While we're at it, let's make it to where Liu Kang can do the ol' u/b d/f+1 style IAFBs, and buffer them. I mean, I hate opting to sub-40% combos in the corner, or using meter at all.
OR
We can keep rewarding higher execution?


Weird hurtbox issues are a pain though, that I'll concede.

How is getting 36% instead of 26% a reward for high execution? Countless other characters get more meterless or with one bar with braindead easy combos yet we are supposed to connect a 2 frame link each time to get a decent punish?

112124 spin works midscreen in tempest, hold forward 1 after spin is performed and you will spin into them comboing.
Really?
I did not know that. I'll try that next time. But 112124 orbiting hat should work on everyone

If theres one thing i learned from tym, its that you cant say "its not fair that i cant x with this character, when this character can y much better"

It doesn't seem right when I have to be frame perfect to get something my opponents don't even need to think about. I don't think that truly applies to that argument. It's a punish. Give me a dependable punish

Hi, I'm kind of a stickler Meseeks, but given that it's a 2f link you don't have to be frame perfect now do you? And even if you think the reward is inadequate, getting more meterless damage is still a reward.

well its actually a 3 frame link, so that's another extra frame for you


let us know now how many you're gonna need
One frame is stupid, two frames is consistent, but three frames is well within reasonable expectations of execution. If people can link Slayer's 6K>2K, they can get this.
