Funny when she was S you still barely if ever saw her. I didn't even know she was S lmao. Only got into her because the cool costumes she got after XL. She's still a great character though.

Edit: Makes sense though her flip kick would punish things not ment to be punished could even go through gaps, and im talking her regular flip lol. I think the nutpunch was biggest hit though her regular nutpunch was good as ex nutpunch just had to be used in high air, which is np. Would of been interesting to play as her when she had regular nut punch jail into 50/50

Edit: I think this is a S character NRS balanced correctly. Took away the extremely dirt cheap stuff but still left her with dirt to compete with other characters dirt. Didn't completely ruin her like they're known to do with S tiers.
She used to be S because she had higher damage and safe armour breaking 50/50's.

You'd do meaty F3/D+F1 cancelled into EX Flip and your overhead and low would both break every armoured wakeup in the game aswell as launch them for a full combo and you'd also be 100% safe.

Making her have like the best corner game. If that wasn't enough, she also could end with nut punch if the opponent was high enough and meterlessly make her plus enough to have another guarenteed 50/50.

She was so broke for so long lol.

This and the points i brought up made her extremely OP and still got no representation lol. I did forget though the midscreen dmg when she could special cancel f34.
And i never had no idea how broke she was lmao, till i used her in XL. Shes now my main tho shes super fun to use.

Lol she's not broke in XL. She's just a pretty good character that's not on the same level as the characters in the tier above.

There isn't many 6 frame gaps in strings in this game. She didn't really just meterlessly flip through a bunch of gaps - there were a few but that isn't what made her ridiculous lol. She could punish some things that were safe to the rest of the cast but she can still do that now lol as can Lao.

What made her pants on head soap bar was that safe armour breaking 50/50 she had. Or D3~Ex Flip on wakeup if your 50/50 would get beat out lol.

Yeah thats why i said was. I can just tell by playing her how she was lol. And reading patch notes. Shes still good though, shes the best balanced S tier that NRS did.
 
She's not S tier lol
Im talking how she was.... Nrs has a histroy or ruining characters that WERE S tier at one point.

Edit: They will easily take a once S character and turn them into something now unviable. Cassie is the best example of great balancing, she was S and nerfed but now shes solid A maybe even A+ but more importantly shes still viable, they didnt ruin her like they're known to do with previous top tiers.

Why no brutality on brawler's air grab?
Why no brutality on air guns?
Why no brutality on bow breaker?

also remove distance requirement from half day

I want Kronika to step on my face
Is this what happens when I leave you for a few months?

You start whining about brutalities?

XL patch can't hit the PC soon enough so I can start mashing out of your pressure again.

Not every move can be a brutality, there's a ton that look like they should be but just aren't.


Also, half day is pretty easy to hit.

I think she'll be untouched. I'm hoping they don't change EX Nut Punch from invincibility to armoured, people bitch about that for no reason lol.

I think previous normalization for cassie was completely directed to hollywood and didn't take account for what happened to spec ops. B2,1,2,d2+4 and ex-flip nerfs hit that variation the worst. I think spec ops is now lacking something, I made an entire post dedicated to analyze how to make her any better, but I be pleased just to get american way to hit crouch blocking enemies and have a little more hitbox.

In the Instant air guns thread I saw someone mentioning you can hit crouch blocking kotal with them but why is this special? You can hit every character crouch blocking with them. Could you hit them neutral crouching pre patch?

Cassie will be my main whether she's shit tier or god tier. I hope she'll be one of the stronger characters anyway.

Are you sure it hits everyone crouch blocking including females? The last time I checked it didn't hit all females

I recorded it against mileena I can upload it later. No whiff on the second shot as well. I'll try against cassie if it works
it might be a good news for us. However trying to shoot instant air gun at that height consistently feels like some kind of finger torturing lol
