My fault i was under the impression that it was -5 at lowest.

It also says regular teleport for scorpion at -8 but it means Ex so i wouldnt make assumptions like that. It could add more recovery to ALL bootstomps.

So many free combos. Its just so hard to hitconfirm a divekick and dashing immediately is the only way to get the combo. I think dashing up will still be safe but i think trying to still trap with it is going to be dangerous.

I was thinking the same thing.

You need to read tech discovered about trait cancels before saying traits a waste.

lbsh besides a read interrupt or grabbing someone to win a round, why would i do trait cancels? It's not like we're gonna mix them up with a low or something. This is my gripe with the damage nerf, he makes up for his lack of mixups with pure damage. Note i don't know how much it will scale but you know...

And if by waste, you mean that i think it's garbage, then you misunderstood me, top 5 best trait.

You are way off base with this. Ill give you a big ole write up on it later. But trust me, string trait cancels are HUGE for this character.

Please do. Right now they're a big part of my game, after b1 T i always catch people with a b23 but people that actually know the MU block it and then they just eat like 4% on chip.

Granted i can continue pressure after b23 but what im trying to say is that at the end of the day all you get is chip without a low and maybe an occasional grab. That's why i wanted F2 to be a low.

You know you can do b2 ex lightning instead and if they block it all they will eat at least 10-15% chip lol. Just saying, it's an option for if they block him well.

Even if Black Adam's best combos only do around 40% he will be fine. So I'm not worried about damage nerf.

The nerf to dive kick seems ok. But it will take time for people to adapt to it. If the +4 recovery also applies to MB Dive Kick then it means we can no longer dash up D1 check on block. Which is a common habit since it's hard to confirm in time that the MB Dive Kick hit or not. So we often dash forward just in case we got lucky.

A better D2 is welcomed and will help in some matchups. :)

I know...maybe im a bit biased. Im playing with the same people over and over again and they know my gimmicks they block all my mid string lightnings.

It's a great option right now but it's something that people will accustomed to. a b1 T into b2 MB lightning deals 23 to 25% which is hella good.

But yeah maybe im just kind of salty from the patch im nitpicking.
