Close thread pls @Tim Static

 

[omooba]

yes he needs it and why an johnny cage still option select this with d4

 

[Ze Dingo]

It should be made unsafe. But this is moot, because we're more than likely not getting any more changes.

What is wrong with you? Do you want goro to be bottom 1? His entire game is built on punchwalk, if you nerf it he will be legitimately horrible

I doubt he'd be bottom one , why does he need 2 hits of armor ? Its not like everyone will armor break a 12f move

At this moment there are things way more important to be fixed!

Yes he should. As juicepouch said, Goro's playstyle is built around punchwalk and EX punchwalk. The justification for EX punchwalk having 2 armor frames is to give him very legit frame traps and mixup opportunities (to punchwalk into EX punchwalk or punchwalk into command grab, that is the question). There's nothing necessarily nerf-worthy about it because Goro d̶o̶e̶s̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶g̶r̶e̶a̶t̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶s̶p̶e̶c̶i̶a̶l̶s̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶n̶o̶r̶m̶a̶l̶s̶ ̶e̶i̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶w̶a̶y̶.̶ <-- Never mind, I realised what I said is bull.

If it does at some point get nerfed though I won't be saddened too much. EX punchwalk is still a great move, be it with one or two hits of armor.

Wow, I never thought I'd ever see a legit nerf Goro or buff Tanya thread
My opinion, though, it's ok.

Well im not exactly asking for nerfs , im just asking a question

 

[llabslb]

I think it should be a bit more minus. Considering he has a 6f d1 as well, PW being -5.

Ive been thinking about this for a while , Should goro keep his super armor on his ex punchwalk? I mean it was fine before because he was already a weak character but now with the buffs he got in my opinion it shouldn't stay , Or atleast they should make it punishable on block , Dont you guys think that a -5 on block move thats 12f on startup AND is a combo on hit with 2 hits of armor a bit too much now? Again this is my opinion.

Yeah?

 

[ienjoywinning]

Yeah?

Your opinion about a nerf Goro should get. Agreed.

I wasn't demanding , i was saying that a move like that shouldnt have 2 hits of armor or be -5?

Not demanding a nerf, but your opinion on what nerf the move should get. Agreed. We call it normalization around here though

His point is totally reasonable though. Under most circumstances,most of the cast can't do much about this.

What exactly is your character's problem with this move, or Goro in general?

I find it annoying that its low risk and good reward.

 

[Eddy Wang]

D1s in this game needs to stop being an option to low profile highs, if a character gets hit by a high when he is crouch blocking, it should get hit by a high when his mashing d1 at least.

Goro is fine.

Well, you can shove your feelings up your ass, because that's not how balancing a character works.

Yeah a low risk high reward move is fine , you can fuck off if you dont like my opinion , Seriously.

I said most of the cast and I use quite a few characters. No character bias from me

Ugh yes lol, goros whole meta and opening you up alot of the time revolves around pw, his movement speed wouldn't matter if he couldn't open you up lol. The fact that people are agreeing with this is insane, goros whole thing is punchwalk it is his meta, it is corner escape, it is his damage, etc. Also why does it matter pw is minus 5 every character can check him with a poke if he has no bar .
