Best part of post patch?

[Pterodactyl]

Fighting all the people who either don't know about or haven't adjusted to all the nerfs.

Just fought two Kung Laos who tried to wake-up with EX spin only to get stuffed. Fought a few other people trying to get off the ground with armored launchers as if they were still a thing, priceless

Any of you have similar experiences on either side?

I can take a hit from my vape when I do F1 with Erron now which is a nice touch.

Thanks NRS

Been destroying people's meter cause they burn for armor they don't have.

I start every match vs Kotal with D1 or D4 because they always try to B1 at the start of the round lol. And of course they try to wakeup with EX Overhead Sword so that gets blown up haha

So wakeup ex moves don't have armor right?

Only launchers.

 

[ILuvFightGames]

Only launchers.

Ah ok, so for example Kitana's throat slice would have armor then?

Yes. That move was buffed so now it's completely safe and has TWO hits of armor. So it would take four hits to break it.

Cool so basically ex launchers can be used in a combo only? Or in neutral but risking getting countered or even poked out from?

won a round after spamming 70 glaives
@SM StarGazer knows this feeling

It requires 3 hits to break, not 4.

Full auto df2 lyf.

I see you post all over these forums, but you don't read the patch notes?

Thats the perfect gif. Thats exactly how i felt when i played people who didn't know about the patch

 

[Darth-Nero]

Anti Airs.

Fought a KL who kept trying to wake-up ex spin, he also tried doing teleport grab/2 times a million which was annoying but D2 to the rescue.

 

[UGL Preon]

Enjoying the patch... but cringing at how I can't unsee how "HEY LOOK ITS COMING REACT BRO" some of the animations look. They don't even look smooth on the slowed down OH's. Erron, Takeda, and Ermac's to be specific. Not that I'm complaining they were slowed they just look Jank now.

I haven't read the patch notes for every character, don't know the names of every launcher for every character, and its not in the general patch notes either. And didn't watch the kast.

Not enough time to skim the patch notes but plenty of time for a LOT of post activity... huh...

 

[Hiyomoto]

Watching the Kitana mains struggle to use 2 bars just to miss the ji1 after ex float. Or feeling like an eternity passed by when I use Sonyas B1. I feel like my timing is a bit off but that could be SFV grinding jet lag.

Can you screenshot the part were it says "all launchers have no armor" please?

It takes very little time to just read what has been changed, yet you spend your time creating threads asking if 50/50s have been toned down and making asinine speculations. How are you speculating on buffs and nerf at all if you don't even know what's in the patch notes??

 

[Meep8345]

Not having to worry about eating 20-30% dmg from an armored launcher everytime I do a block-string or try to meaty. Oh and lao's ex teleport is pretty crazy lol

I only speculate on what little I know, like everyone else here, I've always said in my posts that it's way too early to tell but we all think differently. As some have answered me saying that some characters still have strong 50/50 starters, so that doubt was answered. They answered my questions here so I'm more knowledgeable about the new patch now. And oddly in a way you've helped me too, so thanks.
