but real talk i've been using him a bit along pai, and im honestly stunned by how powerful his kit is. I've even gotten some of it to work in actual matches and its nutz
yeah, i guess this execution factor is what throws most people off akira, but him having high execution is less about him being bad and more a statement on that players skill. if only there was a character who did what akira did but was easier to play (looks over at kokoro)
Akira's always been good. He's top tier in VF5FS too. His execution is justified because of the potency of his tools. It's the same idea with someone like Alpha Patroklos in SCV. Near OP tools offset by ridiculously tough execution.
