Holy shit that's huge. Wasn't the thing that brought tempest into the limelight intially?

He seems better to me now. I'd trade being able to aa on reaction Without meter over a few % damage anytime of the day.
You could do that in many match-ups with standing 1 anyway.
yea the hat pressure was a big part of his game. now you have way more options out of it. but you still have to be careful which option you use to get out
Really?!?! This is terrible. I put so much time and effort into tempest lao. I will probably drop him and pick up someone else until KP2 realeses. RIP tempest lao
Omg stfu.
he's not completely dead. its just gonna become more of a guessing game after the hat pressure because there are more options to escape it..but I always preferred buzzsaw over tempest anyways.Really?!?!

Looks like you're salty. Lao is fine and is not as dirty as some of the cast.
I know, but damage output... Its already hard to link 44 into hatspin and now make it slightly weaker? I remember when lao was hitting like 42 meterless. I wasn't even playing him then.
Gladly, the day you stop being such a garbage poster.
They toned down tempest and made buzz-saw better. Fair trade. What's your problem? I have some issues with this patch but the Lao changes aren't among them.
Slight nerf to damage, 33% is now 32%, 46% is now 44%, etc. You can still do the string but they can easily react a bit more faster now. Same as before 112124 ex hat (on block), RC, 11212, etc, yet you have to work harder from what I see. Could be wrong, as I have not tested it fully.
I can live with the damage output. he still will have the hat pressure off of a hard knockdown which is good. and I don't have to much trouble with the 44 link after the hat spin. we just gonna have to work harder to apply pressure with tempest. but I play more buzzsaw than anything. so its just gonna be matchup dependent
the problem is the way they toned him down. im not denying that he needed adjustments. its just I don't think this was the way to do it. and regardless I main buzzsaw from the start anyways.. it was just nice to have another variation that was good to use
On paper, the nerfs sounded reasonable to me. We'll see how it translates in practice.
he"s one of the most mobile yes. but he doesn't have the fastest strings. and any of his useful strings have a gap in them besides 112124. I can live with the damage nerf but he just doesn't apply pressure the same
I always mained buzzsaw anyways so im not gonna worry about it to much. ill just find another way to apply pressure in tempest.
I never made the switch because buzzsaw is a lot better than ppl think..theres just a certain way you have to play it to be effective
yes i'm salty , but for real , Lao is OP man NRS make him stupid OP since MK 9 , that disgraceful Spin saves him and open for HUGE COMBOS , we cant pressure Lao , we cant jump ,we can zooning (stupid teleport too) .
