Seems like boy 16 Bit, was not around this time, and no fair treatment was given...such a shame.

Does Protection absorb multiple fireballs now? Or are you saying to block the first then absorb the second?

Not block. Neutral duck

You still eat the third from Liu unfortunately.

We just couldn’t get that fucking mid hitting, amplified fan, could we?

You think you're zonya? Oh she's got a mid hitting amp with KB nvm totally different story

So is razors still bad to most kitana mains here?

She seems fun enough to use I guess I'll try her out for a month. Also having watched @EMPRESS_SunFire play more, she seems legit. I've gone back and read most the match up discussion and it seemed before the changes she went even with everything except a couple characters that got nerfed.

Really the only thing I hate about razors right now is it dwarfs all her other moves up close since it is her best damage, best block, best plus frames and safest move to end strings in. It also adds automatically an additional stagger.

Just need some mentors to help me on PS4 to pick her up. I can also help with a couple match ups etc.

There is actually 3 levels of the projectile absorb. I don't recall the actually % but by lvl. 2 and 3 it's significant. Also, during lvl. 1 any physical attack removes the buff. However for 2/3, the buff lasts through, allowing for a damage increase for the entire combo (I think her b231 did around 33% alone).

After some initial hesitation, I tried her again, specifically her second variation and I just don’t like the style. I don’t know if she’s all too terrible, but she’s not fun to me

It actually has 6 levels. And for example if you're on level 6 you lose a level of buff each second.

maaaan im super mad. Highborn kitana had prolly the highest meterless corner damage in the game (41%) and they nerfed it whilst trying to buff her. Making the razors a high made her lose her combo potential in the corner. Now what they need to do is make her Sai in her stance a lot better to make up for the combo loss. Otherwise still 0 reason to play her lol.
