F/T is still beatable just make the reads.
Anything is beatable if you make the reads. I'm not saying Ferra/Torr are too powerful now, because I don't know them, all I'm saying is that being able to beat something by making good reads shouldn't be a reason to leave them untouched.
Sub Zero could get out of hand, I mean, did anyone watch those videos Brady made a couple months ago? He can still do that stuff, lol.
Grandmaster already had some really bad match ups as well. It's a great variation, but not overpowered, in my opinion. It's a tough match up for anyone who likes to play very aggressive.
Execution shouldn't allow a character to be top tier , thats like saying kabal was fine because he had hard execution also to be fair both liu and johnny dont have tough excution , no one in this game , also lao wasn't braindead IMO.
There will always be top tiers, and I'd rather the top tiers required execution to be good, at least. A-List requires execution; if I notice you're not being great at those cancels, I won't respect them.
There are one frame and two frame links in this game, aside from the run cancels that require you to be very strict with the timing, so yes, I'd say this game can be execution heavy depending on your character choice.
I agree with you that Lao wasn't too powerful: most people just didn't know how to fight him.
