Ok I'm just a beginner at this game but the first part where it says Hammer Fury starts up 1 frame later....... that's considered a nerf, right?

Well, yes and no.

Hammer Fury is the third hit of his 3,3,2 command string in his Electric Hammers stance. So if I input the 2, it now starts up in 21 frames as opposed to 20 prepatch.

This wasn't a nerf per se, it was more of a "why bother" change. The gist of this patch was to fix bugs and correct movelists. My only problem with this is why bother because if you're not gonna, do it with every move.

OP edited to include the August patch. Discuss changes

 

[DarksydeDash]

Well.. MB restand feels extremely useless now.

The interesting part about it was the interactable setups weren't guaranteed. It was a guess, which doesn't sound any less broken in this context.

It's understandable at the end of the day. I feel while it's bad for going for a mixup without eating armor, we can still get some chip off this in the right scenario.

I dunno, I need to further test what we can and cannot do.

What is the mine nerf?

*or bug whatevver

Basically at times the explosion had the properties of an interactable. They fixed that to no longer be the case

I mean we can get some strings off of it like b1, and b2 so that's something. Can't do jump in jails now though.

Updated with October patch notes. While it is pointless to mention this, discuss.

I have something to say to you, so hear me through this.
I also read TG and never expected to see someone else to be reading it.

(I still haven’t bought RH, ultimate pack is too expensive)

I was honestly surprised by the nerf to the damage on his mine. I understand the nerf to the lunge, both on the frames and chip damage. The numbers were small nerfs but they add up a bit.

I don't know. It mostly seems like I'll play him exactly the same way. It doesn't look to me like he'll be too different, just slightly less damage.

I honestly don't care about the nerfs themself. More like the indirect consequences of them.

 

[ABACABB]

I dont think he will be bad , just not top 5 anymore. Now we just need to be more careful when to lunge .

Do you really see him changing much from these changes? It's mostly just nerfs to damage. His lunge will be different, but I was never one to spam it myself, so it doesn't affect me much.

I want to refrain from any patch talk until I grab the version and play it for myself.

Let's just say it has everything to do with his hitbox issues which were overlooked. Again, I dunno for sure. But I reserve judgement.

Oh ho ho that's just the surface.

 

[DarksydeDash]

They gave him a slap on the wrist. I was expected like a mine cool down, Unsafe MB lunge, Etc.

They did a good job in my opinion because they kept what makes him good.

 

[Vigilante24]

Mine should go away on block and hit.

 

[Alien Substance]

This is nothing we cannot deal with. As we are to be cautious with laying out Landmines, we now have to be careful with regular Lethal Lunges and keep a bar on hand for the Meter Burn. I wonder how much less pushback there is on the Meter Burned version -- dishing out the chip damage and experiencing the safety of it is the key to happiness in Injustice 2.

Pushback change seems negligible. I also still think the meter build nerf is less consequential than it was for Batman or Deadshot.

 

[FutileDede]

The nerfs hurt they shaved of like 2 - 3% per combo, not sure why he was already a low damaging character cobo-wise. Meter build is worse now that added with the fact I need the meter to make lunge safe now more than ever.
I don't know if he is still top 10 as he gets outdamaged by most.
