Gunslinger since pre patch (sh/out to The Farmer)
Someone mentioned that characters might just be reverted back to their old states for the beta rather than reworked and that theory seems to be supported a little for Jacqui since she has the same day 1 infinite again.

Why isn't Jax's Farm a playable stage?

I don't think that's right. Jax got a damage Nerf that I'm sure he didn't have day 1

Sub-Zero got a slight damage nerf himself. And Scorpions advantage on certain strings has changed as well.

I said it seemed to be the case for Jacqui since she has her infinite back, not for everyone #BibleThump

HUGE news for Jacqui:

In the new beta, her ex bf2 has MASSIVE pushback. Appears to be safe!

If it's not safe, it will be a much more difficult punish. If they block this attack, they go reeling back like 4-5 feet. Slide could possibly punish or maybe run in standing 1, or Jax's knee. IDK, it's hard to test, but beleive me - the pushback is REAL.

I didn't post this because I thought maybe I was wrong. I didn't "visibly" notice a big difference and the frames were the same, but a couple of times I did a string late on my reset and got 33~BF2 blocked and I've yet to be punished. I thought maybe people just didn't punish but it happened against better players as well, who I was able to block their follow up. There seems to be a change in the block stun and/or pushback now.

I don't know about the regular version, but I was playing HT in the beta and the EX version of BF2 had major pushback. Looks like when you block a huge hit and you reel back. It looks crazy. Did it against Sub Zero.

That's crazy. I didn't even notice the EX one. Next time I bump into a TYM member we're gonna be testing things! Lol

I'm not sure if this was added today or not. It's hard to get somebody to block that move in a real match.
It also seems like either her NJP was buffed or the games were. I was able to NJP Scorpions Jik3 a few times and Sub's NJK a couple of times. Don't remember that happening before.

I don't notice anything different about her NJP, but I'll test out the ex-bf2 when I get a chance. It would be great to have a somewhat safe armored special.
