Big damage characters aren't supposed to be string-reliant. What we have is a bunch of kasumi-adjusted rushdown players who can't figure out that Phase 4 isn't meant to be played the same way. And they can't adjust and so they bitch and whine.

That's why I'm saying that buffs would be unwise. Sure, all the 2-in-1s get annoying, but at the same time I understand that she isn't rushdown.

What brute said.

If Brute tried her for a while, he would understand why she is shit and players aren't to blame.

Big damage don't mean shit when nothing else works.

She isn't rushdown. She isn't anything but a steaming pile of Poop.

Exactly. Big damage means nothing when there's no way to achieve said damage.

Maybe she is viable against randoms who don't know what they're doing but she certainly isn't against someone who understands throwpunishing or interruptions.

I don't think she needs to be safer, I think she needs more mixup outside of her teleports.

How long have you used her, Brute?

Rev. What you are saying is easily remedied by patient play and smarts yo.

Almost a week like most of you.

If they did away with her autos, she would be fine.

Smarts and patient play wouldn't do you any good against a spacing character like Ayane or Jann Lee, who also throw punish. P4 is shut down in every way in this scenario. 3P+K P can be easily avoided. Big damage? Other characters are capable of doing big damage, too.

I would like Brute to show me this viable play of his, with P4. Im sure hes already good with her.

Well, I mean, it's not like Gen Fu has spacing tools and a mixup game, so...

Ya'll gonna play online? Yeah, real test.

What BlankOctober said.

P4 is even worse offline lol.

Thus far, its a lot of talk and not much content to back it up. If there won't be any content because "its online" then this entire viable/not-viable conversation is pointless.

lol

We won't get content until the next tournament dude, and even then, depending on the player, we might not get a good indication of her abilities.
