Sorry I don't understand what
"no longer resets the block stun when it's 2in1 cancelled out of
"
means is someone kind enough to explain it?

I'm still baffled that Johnny who was arguably mid tier got nerfed while characters that might be top 5 like Jax, Cassie, Quan Chi didn't got touched or got buffed lol.

This nerf was totally uncalled for, there were A LOT of counters to speedbag pressure even before this patch...I wonder if Fisticuff will still be viable.

D'Vorah took a fairly big hit and I think it'll be bad for D'Vorah players going to CEO.

The timing alteration in her cancels will take some grinding to get used to, on top of being just slightly harder in general.

I personally find it pretty disrespectful or just downright ignorant from NRS. I know a bunch of us Swarm Queen players had spent a ton of time in the lab getting her more difficult combos consistent.

Fair enough, nerf properties and damage if they are too good, but don't take something that already requires finesse and make it even harder for no logical reason. Bung Jin players can faceroll on their Dualshock 4s for 40%, heaven forbid we work for damage and the big guys decide we need to work even harder

Fisticuffs is totally dead, at least until next patch. He just needed speedbag as it was. At most -1...but -3 totally breaks his pressure, opponents have no reason to respect it now. And also they changed the pushback of the string. I tested against Mileena midscreen and now sometimes you can only get 4 or 5 hits on block; before the patch you could get 7 or 8.
The gaps in the string were there to allow people to escape. This nerf is just ridiculous.

I will try him better tomorrow, it's early to say if he is dead or not...but he shouldn't have been nerfed, that's for sure.
I hope the pushblock after blocked b121212 is still the same and there are no stealth nerfs

Pushback also changed xD Like I said, ridiculous. Nrs paid too much attention to people who cried watching djt playing quan chi.
