Alright Alright!!! BA is good, what do you suggest?

[Indecisive]

Something no one has mentioned yet...

Take off the airborne frames on f12.

Its airborn so he cannot do a background bounce off of it. You have to confirm the f1 to get the bounce.

Ok, not going to waste too much time. Apparently the NRS community has agreed Black Adam is dumb as fuck. To which I don't necessarily disagree with, he's ultra good and does insane damage. So, I ask pro's, what do you suggest to make him balanced so there's not 1308294501823541 threads a day whining about Teth. If you scale his damage, I still believe he'll be super good (his tools are good for you newbies.) What reasonable nerfs do you actually call for? Since he's boring to watch and unplayable. ( you don't like to fight against him.)


PS: I'm making this because he's inevitably going to get some kind of nerf. Let's be honest.

Still 2 soon to call nerfs/buffs. He got legacy skill and while i do agree his damage is crazy its still to new. Look at CEO finals. Slayer used aquaman and he has a good Black adam vs scare crow. Its very normal for legacy characters to be top tier at the start of this game. I will say this his damage is crazy but imo its still 2 soon.

EDIT: this post won't change shit when it comes to all the bitching about nerf this / buff that. Sorry but just being real u been around its been the same shit since MK9 smh

Idc about a background bounce lol. I wanna be able to whiff punish him and get a good reward for it.

 

[omooba]

MB divekick should stay as it is, just adjust regular divekick to make it unsafe at all heights

i don't think you should basically be able to go fullscreen in 1 second and be plus

 

[Take$$$]

If you nerf his damage, isnt he still going to kill you in 2 hits anyway because of his chip?

 

[ShaolinGunFu]

IF you jump into the air and spend a bar of meter

nerf his damage a very small amount but he needs his divekick, lets remember injustice 1 over nerfed black adam

Do you lose to BAs often? I actually hate the BC matchup and switch to the mirror because f12 flies right over these little hoes and you can parry EVERY thing except specials because you know i dont have any lows besides d3 and lightning

I'm pretty ass but I think she beats BA and I've convinced other people that she does too, and convincing some of those ppl in particular really gave a lot of strength and validity to that claim imo.

He doesn't need a + on block fullscreen combo starter.

Make it -7 with its current pushback when done low enough just so it stays safe but not + at all.

 

[Error]

his d1 is 6 frames, good range,

His d1 has terrible range

 

[wsj515]

His d1 has terrible range

We can also apparently mash d1 without recourse, "jump on anyone," and have cyrax-esq HTBs. These are the problems with Black Adam.

Cyrax esque HTBs? Lmao, why don't I see the top players in tournaments ever use them?

I know Adam is a bit overpowered currently, but I swear half the people that complain about him have never really labbed him nor know the MU.

Yet here they are suggesting balance changes for him

I mean, that's probably an accurate statement, considering Cyrax's HTB's were mostly complete gimmicks and easily escapable.

• Make f12 ender a mid
• f12 ender damage nerf
• f12 airborne frames removed
• MB Lighting damage nerf
• MB Divekick damage nerf
• MB Divekick 0 on block (calculated by the lowest possible point of contact)

The unnecessary overhead on the f12 ender, some minor damage nerfs to key moves and a less advantageous MB Divekick are the only things I feel need to be touched, at this moment. It's too early to start obliterating characters because we're tired of seeing/getting hit by them.

lol not a bad point, but even then Cyrax probably wasn't getting full combo punished for attempting a bomb setup, while you definitely can as Adam if you aren't spending a bar on mb black magic.

I might be greedy but I think having MB dive kick at 0 when perfectly spaced is pretty fair, especially considering the pushback of MB dive kick would put us in about sweep range, a place Adam doesn't really want to be when not at advantage.

 

[Pan1cMode]

Damage nerf
Increased trait cool down

true as well , guess they are even worse than Cyrax's htbs

@wsj515 @Error @DDutchguy yeah i was wrong about somethings. really sorry for that. i'll delete those comments of mine.

There it is.

#2SOONCREW

Since MK9 i been the #2sooncrew and do u know why?
Because its to fucking soon and i thank god NRS Knows that finally since mk9, MKXL & Injustice 1 fuck panic patches let shit rock!

 

[Thundergodd]

You people are trying too hard like you're trying see who has the most creative nerfs

Tone Dmg (F12, trait, raw divekick scale)
Make MB DK -14 so it can never be +

Easy

Stop trying so hard to butcher the character lol

Seriously. There is definite hateraid going on with Adam.

 

[Thundergodd]

I dislike buff/nerf talk but what would make him more interesting is if his lightning bombs were negative edged after deployed.

This!! I always thought nerf talking means one isn't skilled enough, so they have to bring the opposition down just to keep up.

Nerfing someone's character is never right. Ask for your I character to get buffed instead.
