Purely from watching Summit of Time, I have 2 predictions:
Geras' sand trap will be nerfed. Perhaps its startup. Watching him block and full screen punish all of Noob's projectiles was gross.
Erron's acid puddle will be nerfed. Either its duration, or it won't do damage while Erron is performing a throw on top of it.
That's what you want based on Summit of Time? Geras players lost to Cassie, Cetrion, Jacqui and Baraka. There was no Geras in the semis and finals neither on winners side nor on loser side.
Buff Geras! Nah, I'm kidding.
Sand Trap is not the problem, Noob should be buffed instead. Noob's projectiles are bad but if Sand Trap gets nerfed what should a Geras player do against Sonya's Rings or Baraka Sparks, Kang Fireballs, etc? That move is designed to punish projectile zoning and you want to get it nerfed becaused it does what it is designed for? It should be adjusted to the fastest projectiles not to the slowest ones.
Geras should get damage nerf on all of his Krushing Blows but Summit clearly showed that he's not that OP. I've won against Geras players, Erron players but the Chick Squad (Cassie, Jacqui, Sonya) is a nightmare to play against, especially Jacqui. And how many characters are slept on at this moment? A skilled Cage player can give you a run for your money anytime. DJT's Baraka was amazing so he can be played on a high level but only a few can play him like DJT. Buff or nerf then or fine as it is? I played against amazing Kotal players who can mix your shit to death if you're not blocking correctly and can kill you even if you're blocking with 80% accuracy.
So it's still early. If Combo Breaker and EVO are taken by Geras players who abuse Sand Trap we can return to it but as of right now I think the move works as it should be.
