Digit wasn't doing anything specifically wrong that would have made the matchup any better other than missing like...what, 1 or 2 punishes on b34, which is already a 2-frame punish for Raiden? Milky had nothing extra, either. Just good play...even punished the electric strings.
Also, those high/low options only bring out crap damage without meter midscreen (corner, too, for low option). But the overhead is also 11 frames and +1 on block, the low is 14 frames and with OS is only -5 (-7 with the full string), and when you tack on +2 jabs, a 7-frame poke, an 11-frame d4 to make the overhead option have an unfuzziable high/low, and ways to space out at 0 or better to set up whiff punishes on pokes, all into the mix, I stop seeing where he is this unviable character that needs some major buffs. Of course I liked the idea of fixing up his variations, but in reality, he'd be viable without them ever really changing.
He takes more plays to win matches due to his meterless damage. But he's also safe and difficult to actually block in reality. This character is good.
