I dont know what you're talking about. Yes, combos scale damage, duh. Fukiage damage got nerfed apart from that, as did most of her other moves. She does a lot less damage now overall, and allowing her to be hit out of ultra 2 makes her defensive options even weaker than they already were. There isnt much reason to use double ultra now because there isnt much reason to use u2. Shes the only character that had her offense and defense nerfed and wasnt given anything substantial to make up for it.

If you havent heard anyone upset about the nerfs then you havent talked to anyone.

Not being able to pressure her ass on wake up when she has ultra 2 was dumb.

u2 is now a pure projectile punish / escape. you use double ultra for the utility

And you get mid screen combos with that hp buff, now you don't need the corner to get that damage.

Don't be mad it will all be ok.

so you could upgrade it from the original one too right? not just the arcade version? i only paid between 6 and 8 bucks for my copy, so upgrading for another 15 would still be way less than a brand new game. i'm pretty sure virtua fighter did something like this too.
I think so, but ain't a 100 percent sure on that.

No, they removed the escape utility. Why was it dumb? A character with awful defensive options gets one situational escape per round and you have to sacrifice your ultra in exchange. Plus it wasnt even automatic and some characters could still punish. Compare that to other characters who have much better and basically unlimited escape options. The Ibuki matchup is like 8-2 now.

I dont give a shyt that "it'll be ok" and Makoto will still be a decent character. The point is her changes are fukking stupid and pointless and she seems to have been hit hardest in the nerf area when they were supposed to be buffing everyone. She wasnt even top tier, let alone OP. Rosas is an idiot.

Its throw invincible so if your in the corner and you think they are going for throw then use it, no more get out of jail free.

Watch how much stun you get with that change.

I think everyone is underestimating how delayed wake up with help characters like her, guile, rose, etc etc with poor wake up options.

Most of the changes to the game make people play smarter imho.

From what I read she will be fine from people at ufgt10.

Just did the digital pre order through gamestop for 360 version. If were paying 15 bucks, I wanna get the most out of it. Sucks it had to be through gamestop though while PSN brehs just could do it through the network
