I don't care about balance for this game because I think it sucks on the whole. Therefore, I hope Paulo is trolly enough to buff Goro into the stratosphere and then abandon the game completely. It's about time ol' 4 arm half dragon starts fighting like a 4-armed half dragon

Honestly, I foresee them giving us something nice, but not exactly needed or requested.

And I think KW is still going to come out of this just as bad as it was before.

Interesting change. I mean I like the pushback but it looks like it costs 2 bars? If regular PW is still safe but raw EX isn't but can be for an extra bar I'm cool with that I guess. But if it's unsafe overall...hopefully this means he's getting other stuff to compensate.

So my theory is that PW is now unsafe, order to make it safe you have to EX it, or just EX PW is unsafe on block.

Kinda like Shinnok, but not as good because of no push-back before the 2nd EX. So it should be punishable like -10 but not -24

Goro is godlike as he is Goro and buffs don't go in the same sentence he is really really messed up right now they better reaaallly be careful on what they buff, 1 wrong buff and he could turn into Jacqui. Godlike poke safe launching armor Jacqui

Plus on block.
I don't really see the point of being able to spend another bar to push back the oponent as Goro with that much distance, pushing is good as long as we can stay in. Unless this is now our only means of safety after a blocked EX Punchwall(or god fucking forbid they made the normal version unsafe) I'm struggling to see the usefulness.

This could be an alright addition if, say, the window on the ability to delay the last hit was made large enough, and that last hit had armor. Turns into a pocket fear tool and baiting ability. Assuming unsafety otherwise, of course.


If this is the scope of what we have in store, I've got some bad feelings.

Wait a sec, that canned pushback animation it causes looks pretty extreme, I wonder if there's a window to squeeze a f3 in there? If so then that's pretty damn interesting in terms of corner carry.

Unless of course you can only do it after EX Punchwalk and not regular, because spending two bars just for that is completely ridiculous.

Where are people getting the "unsafe" idea from? To me it just looks like if you want it to launch, you gotta spend that meter.

You have a point with the unsafe thing, but the text says "more punching"(he never had the last punch on block before, so it is "more" now).

Also that would be a rather serious nerf.
