Indirect buff to GM by destroying one of the few characters that doesn't get 10-0ed.

GG NRS.

3 to go and I'm selling the game.

How is what they're showing for Mileena a buff?

Did that ball roll nerf just kill mileena? From what I understand, she can only convert off of ball roll if she enhances it. I don't even know any combos where she doesn't use a ball roll. I feel like she won't ever have meter anymore. Especially in Ethereal.

So they killed her.

well if it scales for a good amount its kinda like a buff, if not its not

It's not a buff. She can't combo off her regular roll anymore and has to burn a bar. Considering the meter this bitch builds, I don't think it's that bad, frankly. Now she just won't have a fucking breaker every time she gets touched.

People are starting to say she is dead, hehe, just because they will have to spend a bar, which they habe plenty off.

Don't be stupid this is ok for piercing because she builds good meter in that one. Ethereal is doomed, dead unless she gets something to compensate.

M.D. · Sep 29, 2016

Plot twist: It was the second roll in a combo, and they gave the option to meter burn to re-launch in a combo the third time. Top 0.

Some posts in here almost make me regret to have opened this thread.

Fisticuffs can MB the buff now, looks like it makes it recover way faster.

MB, not EX, so its done after. or so it looks by the gif https://twitter.com/tylerlansdown/status/781569724576571392

Compbros · Sep 29, 2016

Might be that she can't combo an airborne opponent with roll, I find it weird they chose that position for the opponent.

Zionix · Sep 29, 2016

Fisticuffs will still be low tier. MB on hit for full combo is great for casuals but he might need more to be in a Grand final.

Well piercing always has meter so really even if it just does 38% that's still pretty decent.

John Grizzly · Sep 29, 2016

So many tears about Mileena being dead. Give me a break. No one fucking played her when this game came out and as soon as she got buffed, everyone jumped to her. You can start saying she's dead if they nerf her b+1,2 string. As it stands now, she'll still be fine, she just won't be as dumb as she currently is.

Boo hoo....you have to actually eat a combo now and then because you don't have infinite breakers from all the meter you build. How tragic.

And I highly doubt they'll leave Ethereal as is. She will get a new way to get some damage in combos, I'd imagine.

Jeesh....NRS posts one gif and people are running to Gamestop to turn their games in (which they won't actually do anyway).

Tri-Zero · Sep 29, 2016

Mileena players are so spoiled..lol. On another note, CYBER SUB F13 ICE BALL HYPE, also, SUBBY WUBBY CRYO TIC THROW HYPE

Oh no, a character with no shortage of meter is forced to use some of their meter!

You don't even know the extent of the changes yet. Can you wait until you've tried the character at the least before you congratulate nrs for murdering her? :rolleyes:

He said cancel that. It might be that he can use MB as a cancel to gain +frames for pressure or a combo.

Because people want it so bad and there's a PC audience to hype up too for KP2.

Rizz091 · Sep 29, 2016

If this buff makes fisticuffs viable, I'd be sooo happy. My hands just can't take A List anymore.

Hey all,

there have been some confimed Balance Changes. I have made a video with all and explained them.

Please enjoy!

Peace!

Did you guys notice Iceball has less startup? As it looks possibly the same pre patch. Which means CSZ has more Combo opportunities.

Gengar · Sep 29, 2016

Hopefully it is a Mileena nerf. Also, hopefully its not so bad that she HAS to use meter to do damage after a roll. She was getting 35% meterless, asking for a bar to get that much damage is reasonable. Im thinking that you can still combo off the regular roll, maybe b12 will work, but you wont be able to jump kick dive kick after the roll. Nerf her damage some, but plz dont turn the 'since mk2 its been a combo starter' into just a regular hit that we cant follow up on
