Most combos aren't like that one where it's all done standing. Trait lets you stop yourself from being launched, which does cut a lot of combos short.
Thank you for clearing that up and I completely agree with your second statement.
I think youre just confused on how to use his trait properly. In all your examples you traited a string into a MB ender, all on the ground. None of your examples were using trait to avoid getting launched into an optimal full damage combo, in which case you would eat the full damage from their launching move or a B3 or something, rewarding yourself by avoiding the subsequent damage that would follow. If youre using his trait incorrectly by randomly popping it during blockstrings, you will be punished.
He just did that to show you the issue. The trait is used while you're getting hit to escape the combo, forcing you to take the chip of the rest. But when "the rest" does like triple chip and more damage than getting hit, its really unfair.
Damn Aquaman's trait needs bar to use now? Do the people in NRS hate Aquaman's bar for some reason? lol
lol it's essentially a one bar breaker, which other char have that? scapes are 2 bars and risky...
Hypothetically: it would still allow you to trait up and punish unsafe strings and it still saves him from frozen states.
