So Nightwing's staff stance is still the same? wow! yeah, staff down 1 didn't need to be nerfed, it's cool, nightwing players can still mash there little hearts out. Good job NRS

I would reply with a detailed explanation of how staff stance works, how it's fine, and how to deal with it, but somehow I have this odd feeling that nothing I say is going to change your mind on the subject.

So stay free.

Putting a lot of work into one character and then finding out he/she sucks in the next version of the game is frustrating for tournament players.
Tournament players that rely on top tier characters to win maybe. Not tournament players that enjoy the game. If you are gonna be a bitch and quit the game cause your top tier main got nerfed, i dont want you representing this games community.

I can understand someone switching characters because the wins won't come as they used to. For example Black Adam he was nerfed pretty well but he is still a viable character. I personally really like this game and hope that no one quits.

I hope no one quits to. I have no issues with people switching characters either, just dont quit like a bitch.

The changes to player 2 random stage do solve the stage problem, but not by making random 50/50s. Player 1 should have to manually select whatever comes up as player 2's random stage (it's already random!) because player 1's random stage is shown on the character select screen and should therefore be thrown out.

So you think BA was balanced compared to 95% of the cast? I ll just say this: Bane vs BA and Lobo vs BA. Just two MU examples for instance. Even the top tiers had a hard time against him... He didnt "needlessly" got nerfed. These nerfs were completely justified. And even then, he is still viable, its not like he became bottom 5... Your main was BA dont fool yourself... Joker was just a casual secondary. Plus i dont remember you entering tourneys with Joker like ever...

I would love to see that cause it will probably never happen.
I said he got butchered, not nerfed. I'd support nerfs and in every single tech thread I made I kept saying how this char will never leave top tier unless nerfed, I just don't support every single one of his tools nerfed. Regular divekick now serves no purpose. It's useless. Damage got hurt even more, now we need both meter and trait to break 45%.

I don't remember any tournament past 2 months in the game lol. Joker is my main as well, I don't play any character I like casually and forgive me for actually wanting to learn matchups first when all the offline competition I get is people playing 3-7 matchups when it comes to Joker.

Dive kick was stupidly safe, cause on BA's part, it was a safe way of continuously checking your opponent when done right (and its not that hard to do it right).

MB lightning was stupid as well, in all aspects.

His trait was a free round ender.

Dont even get me started on his damage.... He was able to deal almost 50% dmg with one bar and trait with a simple combo... And BA has a very easy way of dealing damage against his opponents.

His back dash could avoid everything. Now combine that with his dive kick and his mobility in general and tell me if that character was balanced... NRS did what should have been done since June.


So, no, his nerfs were 100% justified.

Divekick was -5 lowest height. Mess it up once, eat d1 into combo.

His trait was a keepaway tool, not a round ender alone.

His backdash was punishable like all others. The only thing different was the distance. I don't recall your character having problems pursuing.

Almost every single character in this game deals over 42% bnbs and some without even a bar. You even played a char who shit 50%s every 5 seconds in MK9.

MB Lightning being stupid I don't understand why you'd complain against as if it's patched, it's still the same in this patch with just one small difference lol...

You could always do a correct dk, so thats irrelevant. And at some times when you couldnt, opponent didnt have time to react.

His back dash was stupid. Period.

BA does not deal 42% bnbs... He deals A LOT more. And not just from one string. If he has meter he can deal 30's from almost full screen... I can only imagine one character who deals 40's meterless...

Dont you even compare Ermac with BA and MK9 with IGAU in general...

Because MB lightning now is minus on block as it should have been. +8f on block is not the same as -1f on block.....
