I honestly don't understand how anyone could be a fan of the zoning play style. It's almost like admitting your execution is weak, so your last resort is to throw projectiles across the screen feverishly.

i honestly think people are over reacting a little. the patch has been out for 2 fucking days. lets let it breathe a bit instead of bitch about it endlessly. yeah he got nerfed. grow a pair or switch characters.

ok so lately every one has been crying and tearing on death stroke but have any of u actually went into practice and realized the tools he still has? death stroke still has his safe 50/50s that lead to good dmg and knock ur opponent away from u. death stroke still has his broke aa that gets any1 out of the air for free on read. death stroke still needs to be respected on wake up... so what if u cant mindless spam guns and own the cast for free any more. he needed to be balanced and brought down to same level as other chars and now hes fair. death stroke also still has his f23 combo string that gives him mega +frames on block so learn to abuse it!! it gives free 50 /50 set up each time blocked

now with all u read above does this sound like a bad char? NO!! death stroke is still top if u have the brains to use him right. hope this helps u guys trying to re learn his game. just put the guns a side and think this carefully for once... he has lots of other tools
> 'Free on a read'

F23 doesnt give a free 5050 on block either.
Also, there s no proof of anything in this thread.

I agree that This nerf has not broken down Death stroke into a shit tier character. I am not affected by this nerf, as I have DS as one of my mains
Although please next time when making a thread, show some actual proof, and have some meat to back it up. people are going to blow you up for this :(

I hate when people tell us DS players to adapt. And I know it wasn't specifically said that way in the original post, but "re learn the game" and "think this carefully for once" is the same thing.

Why must WE adapt for everyone else's incompetence? YOU guys should have been the ones adapting. Learn how to get around the ****ing guns. It's possible. And I don't know if any of you realize, but his up close game took a hit too as a result of the guns nerf.

why doesnt it give a free 50/50?
I'm pretty sure its backdashable. and From my experience, F23 mid screen the B2 doesn't erach i dont think
Usually when I do F23 i go for B1. But in the corner it gives 50/50s. So F0xys statement is half true.

I don't know why you are wagging your finger he is right.

Instead of learning to play you all cry to Granddaddy Boon to remove us from the freakin playground.

This generation is something else.
You all?

I never went to Boon. I think you and some of the other DS players are just salty because your time of just using one gun attack throughout the entire match is over.

Maybe now you'll have to learn some combos. Oh the horror!

I already knew combos pre patch and I'm adapting to the new Deathstroke nicely.

They should have learned to get around the guns instead of having Boon wave his wand to make it go away.

The only thing I'm salty about is nerfing because of casuals. It is ridiculous. Doesn't mean I'm dropping the character though.

I believe that the whole issue is because of these casual players that use the same gun shot throughout the match.

I do feel bad for people who actually perform combos with him.

They were doing the right thing.

I've played good players and I've played bad players.

On the good players I'm going to use combos.

On the bad players I'm gonna shoot em dead and if they cannot get past it then it is their problem.

Maybe that's the reason he got nerfed. Hmm...
