Boon tweets Balance improvements/Buffs for Lex Luthor

[LEGEND]

Am I the only one who read that as "the probes are unblockable" now.

no and i hate TYM immensely for it

 

[NRF CharlieMurphy]

no and i hate TYM immensely for it

lol
that was the only thought I had when I read it. Blocking really isn't a "reaction" so to speak.

Today is a good day to be a Lex Player, much appreciated, props to NRS.

 

[DarkPage]

hmm makes the victim react? so like mind control... lol

 

[jaym7018]

"Makes the victim react" is the new "normalized"

 

[John Grizzly]

Why the fuck are these updates always so ambiguous?

"Makes the opponent react".

The fuck does that mean? They might as well have said it was "normalized". You'd almost think English isn't their first language at NRS. It reminds me of reading the patch update changes for Tekken or Soulcalibur after it was translated. No one really knew what the hell anything meant even after reading it.

I hope this patch comes soon because I'm quickly losing interest....especially with GTA5 out. But hey...they have my money already, so who cares?

The probe issue IMO is that it is too slow to deploy and when you get hit at the end of the animation it won't come out. Level1 trait fix would have been nice. The blast fixes are better than nothing I suppose, but it's nothing to get excited about reading..

 

[jaym7018]

NRS notes do look like they are translated from another language into English.

Also lol @ specific buffs to fighting aquaman. Yeah that character is balanced.

Also lol @ specific buffs to fighting aquaman. Yeah that character is balanced.

tbh they should've checked stuff with his super since his is the only multi-hit one in the game. i wish they just made it so that if the first hit hits the rest do too. sometimes if you combo into it the last hit will whiff

Very cool patch notes Does this help Lex players?

 

[ryublaze]

Congrats on getting front page Rampage254 stay positive

 

[ChatterBox]

These are pretty helpful. Am I the only one who thinks these are being put out early to test our reactions before finalizing them?

 

[RiBBz22]

Best character in the game now......... :/

 

[RunwayMafia]

Boon please we need the balance patch now, finish with ares, we need the fucking balance patch. and the top 5 not be nerfed, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.

...after Hawkgirl and Catwoman...then I can agree.

 

[RunwayMafia]

Haha it's all good guys

What happened?

 

[Deleted member 9158]

The lance blast was so needed. That projectile was a joke. Also I had no idea Aquaman could escape his super lol.

Oh NRS...

 

[Rampage254]

What happened?

He made the Lex buffs thread like a minute before me and I didn't realize it, so I asked the mods to close my thread since his was getting more posts, but instead they ended front paging mine.

 

[rev0lver]

Very cool patch notes Does this help Lex players?

imo yes. Lex is a good character. I feel like a lot of the "low" tiers in this game just need more work put into them and more representation. It's still sort of early in the game's life and he has a lot of depth.

 

[BDMao88]

What a fucking joke. Are you people stupid? Yeah, I thought so which is why I barely play this game now.

"Lex is top tier now!" This will be said at every possible offline event and stream...

1. Who the hell uses the super with a character that is beyond meter dependent?!

2. Probe is maybe inescapable? That's cool...IF HIS BAD MATCH UPS ALLOWED HIM TO GET HIS 1000 frame probe out!

3.Yay the lance does more damage, but your opponent will be in your face before you even get it back in your pocket...

This patch does ZERO for his bad match ups...

Reparations for your bi-monthly bans.

 

[usedcarsalesmang]

lol nice changes hahahaa

 

[jaym7018]

Ares is the only other character that the consensus really call " low tier" i wonder how many of these they are gonna show. Gimmee the damn patch already.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Wtf does "now always makes the victim react" even mean????

All I can think of is when a bumble bee or a wasp lands on your nose or fire ants in your pants

 

[BDMao88]

imo yes. Lex is a good character. I feel like a lot of the "low" tiers in this game just need more work put into them and more representation. It's still sort of early in the game's life and he has a lot of depth.

Who gives a fuck about his placement when a first minute superman can special his way for a win?
