well lets get straight to the point, 212 just became EB 21122 string... except they now got to guess command grab or overhead.

the ex command grabs / ex overhead tackle do crazy dmg ... 18%

2 is a high, the rest are mids

my game plan is just to hold up forward and do 2 xx command grab, 21 xx command grab, 212 xx command grab, 2 xx overhead, 21 xx overhead, 212 xx overhead, 33 xx overhead, 331, 1 xx command grab, 1 xx overhead, 12b4, 12 xx overhead, f33 or f3 xx overhead

Lmfao why are people acting like Brawler's tick throws off of 212 are some new hot tech? Armoured grabs are fine to replace EX Flip but Spec Ops better get some love too.

Yeah if Spec Ops lacks any defense option, she atleast now become the powerhouse.

I'm not sold. Unless some frames have changed, she still has the same millions of gaps with new if worse armor to replace armor taken way exclusive to 1 variation. The universal command grab buff doesn't change much for her imo.

Cassie as a whole is a worse character from a balance persepective imo and in that way this handling of her is a failure to me.

Ya the one guy who happens to be the best nrs player doing anything with her as a side character in tournament will probably do this if he still plays her as much.

And I don't wanna hear the whole "but you can link 242 from a spaced EX glow kick!" nonsense, that shit is as laughable as the whole "teleports only have armor on wake-up" mechanic, which isn't even a mechanic I might add.

I really think the first hit of ex glow kick shouldn't launch and be more like an extender/opener now, with less corner carry, damage scaling etc

She was broken because she never had to take any risks. Everything was safe. Don't think she deserved everything everyone is saying though

Her flip kick was full combo punishable and so was ex in the corner. Between using meter for safe 50/50s and ex nut punch she was very meter dependent. No meter ( And she builds an average amount) and everything she does it a risk.

Cassie should only hitconfirm flipkick anyway. And they don't really use ex in corner unless it's AA. And even without meter she doesn't have to take much risk. She is good everywhere.

She had others but it's irritating that both her main strings now have gaps
Click to expand...

Wait, armored ex command grabs?? Holy sh*t, I'm so glad I made the switch to Brawler a while ago!
So she lost an armored wakeup option, but in exchange she got two more? I'll be honest, even though those options are punishable (unlike old PowerFlip), I'm totally ok with this.

I dont see how you cn hit confirm from her overhead but okay. And most people use ex in the corner so you can switch sides. And shes not good from long range. shes a 50/50 character with no damage mid screen without meter she does nothing but risk.
