Just remember what an awesome job TN did bringing your character from vanilla to Ultimate. (pffftt)

To be fair, aside from losing a broken throw and 1 guaranteed setup, Akira and Hayate pretty much just got better. Ein is another story...
Zeo
But the point is, it's understandable to have low expectations at this point but you might as well not expect the worst ALL the time. At least being neutral. Ein got a buff, that alone should be a beacon of hope.
Brute
Oh, I'm expecting the worst. By the time TN is done with him, Hayabusa won't even have stuns left.
Zeo
Well, they buffed his Izuna in 5U though, right?
Brute
Taking away every pressure tool he had and giving him 5 more points of damage on the izuna wasn't really a fair trade, by my standards.
Brute
Especially when you consider that almost every single character in the game got a damage buff on their i12 throw going into 5U.
Zeo
Fair enough. What did he lose besides the GB on 3H+K as far as pressuring?
