I vote not because i dont like nerfing characters. I vote to buff the ones that need buffing.

Ask for buffs, not nerfs.
Anytime you ask for a nerf on a character you are asking for a nerf to your game.
It would not surprise me that the folks on DOAW do not understand the logic behind this 100%, but they should be told that asking for a nerf to ANYTHING they don't fully understand is a horrifically bad idea.

So true.
normaly i dont think they would do this but ever since Dr.Dogg apparently called Eliot broken some have come to the nerf conclusion.I want at least try and fight him, but even then it would have to be seriously bad for me to ask for a nerf with anyone.Im fine with good old fashion bitching lol

Broken was used as in endearing term by Bryan, not as a negative one. It's all about tone. Make sure they understand that.

No nerfs! Kasumi already being a mixed bag has me already pondering remedies. Not mention we haven't even begun to scratch the surface with side stepping.
This coming from someone who got to play A LOT.

I like his parry, it still better then being izuna dropped. You can always change your style to fit the fight. If you know they are parrying a lot just throw punish them. Plus after a parry setup you are more likely to drop combo with an errors. Now if he could 1 touch of death it would be deff.

Yeah im pretty sure we all unanimously came to the same conclusion. No nerfing!!

How exactly does his parry work? Does it cover high's and mid's or both? If it's both then it's a pretty brain dead tool. I heard he also gets free launchers off of a successful parry. This sounds okay as long as the launch combo doesn't do stupid amounts of damage.

Both high/mids kicks/punches, free launcher, and does good damage. It's pretty herp derp.

Well Kasumi has her high parry and mid parry but they are separate and aren't really good at dealing damage or launching.

Sorry how you wrote that has left me a bit confused you mean one parry covers all high and mid attacks or he has one for high and mid punches and another for high and mid kicks?

really? has it come to this already...eliot finally looks viable and butthurt scrubs are already crying for nerfs on him. "oh noez now i have to think before i randomly rush him down! nerf him naow!!!11". If its anything like kratos's golden fleece counter from MK which works on all attacks/projectile other than lows (and certain characters specials) leads to his guaranteed 50% damage juggle then you'll have to switch it up. bait the parries, and hi counter throw him or use low attacks on him. also you cant parry while stunned so there are drawbacks to them.
