The Superman Nerf Chronicles

Seriously though, the reason Superman gets all the salt is simple - it's not just because he's clearly the best character in the game with by far the least amount of bad match-ups (and the least-bad bad match-ups), it's because KDZ can win Evo while engaging in nothing more mentally taxing than thinking about what he's going to have for dinner afterwards.

I know that by now I shouldn't really bother...

But I find it really cool that you are able to travel back in time, and read KDZ's mind while he was/is playing in the EVO finals. That is a fucking epic power, you should use it to learn more about the game, balance and other... useful stuff.

I agree with KDZ. There are times when I kan't decide whether I should do F23 Breath after F23 Breath or wait a lil and then do F23 Breath...

The timing for waiting is hella strict. Take too long and they suddenly block. What kind of bullshit is that? You shouldn't be able to block Superman's punches....

10 frames?
Make it 12 frames.

I have no problem with superman honestly, I just want projectiles from GL and BA and them to actually count as projectiles.

As far as his trait goes, take off armor breaking and give him 5% more damage to compensate and I'll be satisfied.

The only "nerf" superman needs is scaling on his eye lasers so that his ridiculous corner combos deal between 50-60% which is fair seeing other characters can do damage around that off trait or corner. Wouldn't affect any other aspect of his game considering the corner is the only time he uses lasers mid combo.

Reiterated or not, you're wrong. Everything you say is wrong, and even if you WERE a Superman main, I'm sure you haven't fought a great player in one of his many bad matchups.

How does that even make sense? You guys just keep repeating that line like a mantra.

Explain how his bad matchup aren't bad matchups? Because you don't like him?

Some really feel like it's in their favor. I personally hate Deathstroke, Zod, Hawkgirl, Aquaman, and Wonder Woman.

Might be lack of Match up experience against them. They all seem pretty even. Just Hawkgirl it might seem that way because Superman really has no answer to her trait besides a rising grab but when far away he can't do nothing.

How in the name of god is Superman v Flash, BA, or Hawkgirl 5-5.

Explain how, rather than randomly throwing out the number you think it is.
Even moreso, what is your criteria for a "Bad Matchup"
