I agree with this damage scaling on b1,2,3. Thats it, let her keep the gifts she's been given in this game. For the first time in mk history her energy rings are actually very cool and deadly.
Lol Stop.
I think you’re confused, you’re talking about buffs. Even without rings at all, she’d still be a top tier character.
Agreed she doesn’t need a nerf and no one can even energy ring combo, if so it takes skill. Unlike scorpion and Geras’ damage.
If you gut her projectile then give her divekick back as her projectile is her only way of literally getting in on some characters as she can pressure while walking.
No, she has one of the best wave dashes in the game to get in, and no the best mixup+damage character doesn't need the best projectile in the game. Jacqui doesn't even HAVE a projectile, with an equally high level offense and is top 5-ish..
Jaqui can launch with a special and has movement ability which goes half way across the screen, she does not need a projectile...
Sonya can also launch with a special, midscreen, for 40%, and has a KB that takes 30% alone if they are hit blocking high. She also has 50% damage in the corner off of BOTH 50/50s. With wall carry that goes from midscreen to corner in ONE combo. Her ring cancel is easy to do, it took all of ten minutes and I haven't played her in two weeks. I can post a video right now doing it 10x in a row. She can jail her high string from D3, forcing you to hold it midscreen, which again is one of the best D3s in the game. Have you played other characters and compared tools? Do you really want to minimize Sonya's offense in this game? Because it's Top 3, at worst.
No Sonya has ever ring cancelled successfully against me online yet and still I didn’t see it used once in the tournament. Sonya special launch only launches after she gets them airborne and she has only one string to do that.
After playing more and more against Sonya im starting to feel this 100%. She has no weaknesses and excels at every part of the game. Little things like her walk back speed and wonky female hurtbox just really irritate me when she does everything else so well.Top tier damage
Top tier rushdown
Top tier zoning
Can't wait to see the nerfs
Cooscos hit the ring cancel twice if I remember correct. I play Deg fairly often who is probably a Top 10 Sonya user, for long sets and he hits the ring cancels any time he lands the low in the corner. If you're playing Sonya players who aren't capable of doing it that's another story, but shouldn't be regarded in a conversation of balance.
I said she could do with a nerf but no where near the level people are exaggerating imo. She’s still unsafe on her launch and wave dashing and cancelling is only used by skilled players. I’d much rather they take her cancel and nerf her projectile. But people would still complain because noone even uses her ring cancel online. People just love to moan about it.
What would be your suggestions on how to handle a nerf?
I think her projectiles could do with a nerf and her ring cancel shouldn’t be a thing imo, though it takes skill to do. I would rather they get nerfed than her mid screen damage. As her combo isn’t the easiest to even start as it’s a high. After those nerfs i don’t see her being the strongest in the game. As I don’t see it now anyway. Maybe because I play her so much I know how to fight her. But I’ve versed a lot of Sonya on ranked and because of how unsafe she is, I’ve never struggled like I have Geras , scorpion tele cancel etc.
Lol the irony in suggesting the same thing. My changes to her would be--
