let me tell you... trying to react to his annoying lows is basically impossible online. I'm just requesting he be a bit slower

Wants Jacky to be slower. Is fine with Pai.

hm

pai is very well balanced. she can't just randomly do 50% combos. she has to work her way through it. her speed compensates for her lack of strength.

I feel like offline they'd be much easier to fight... but online where your shit never registers is a different story. and since they're so fast you have to do it quickly otherwise you get hit... this is why I wish he were slower. so it'd be able to register the duck.

so you're asking for nerfs based on online play?

yes considering more people play online then offline. i mean it's just my opinion though.. i'd really wish TN would actually start effectively balancing things out. or fix the netcode. and they damn sure won't do that so i'd prefer the nerf

I believe Akira is fine as is. The karate man is debately the hardest character to use in the game. He doesn't really deserve any nerfs. As for Pai, I agree. Jacky is ok... imo but he does get annoying. And Sarah... I already dislike her WITH A PASSION but she's probably much easier to fight offline. In general, for the most part the VFs are fine. But, I wouldn't mind nerfs to Sarah...

Uh oh, we have a rant situation. Slowing VF characters down for no reason looool @CrayCraySteady @Nereus @Codemaster92163

shhh your mouth creep. i clearly was directing that at jacky. i like Sarah, she's fine. Akira is fine as well. btw we need more dojo stages

Nerf a character based on online? Ive heard it all.

LMFAO... Ok so 1. your asking for nerfs because of online play? lol... 2. Pai isn't the only own who needs to work for their damage... Jacky and Akira are the two heaviest in terms of execution. 3. I don't think you even use Jacky let alone understand him and 4. If you did, you'd soon realize how retarded that statement is.

i'm assuming you think everyone plays offline then? i mean let's be honest. if we're talking about what's best as a whole and what's best for DOA the creators who want people to keep playing this it'd be in their best interest to try and fix a few characters. unless they want to lose customers. i've seen plenty of people stop playing because of how broken this online is.

Nereus oh my god my number one fan. i'm so glad you could make it

They dony need to fix the characters based on online. They need to fix the netcode. And even then onlime is just for casual play. If youre that concerned about having a competitive match come offline. If you dont care about going offline than dont worry about Jacky since youre strictly casual. Every character has online tactics. Find them and use them

What's wrong with Jacky exactly? I hear this a lot, so I was just wondering. Also, are your opinions based on online play only, or by observing offline and studying the character?

not everyone plays offline. i would if i could but sadly i live in the mountains where people don't ever meet up to play. anyways as a whole obviously more play online then offline. that being said, why not fix for the majority? and i know him fairly well. when to duck and grab punish but obviously since the netcode blows i can't really do anything. this is why it's an over all better idea to fix him in general.

What made me laugh was that Katana was speaking offline as if he played offline. Nerfing characters because the Netcode's devil got into Katana's mind and want to nerf characters that don't need a nerf lol.

lol ty i'm glad i made you laugh. i mean yes all you offline beauty's get to escape into the magical world of non laggy bs so i can see why you don't really care. but for the rest of us... not so much.

All I gotta say is.....#Buff Leon, #Buff Gen Fu, #BuffTheVF Characters. and add more stages like home.

Online is a sin - DB.

Because you can't do stuff against him on online delay doesn't mean jack shit to your cause to get him nerfed. What needs to be done is a fix to the netcode. THEN will matchups be played accordingly. Screw nerfs. Let's learn.
