Jill might be the dirtiest fucking character in this game.

Goddam I can't wait until the metagame evolves to the point where high execution high reward characters become viable.

yea i kno, shes a freaking nut, but because of her damage, shes not really the most optimum character in the current meta, but i do believe in the future she will be one of the best.

Morrigan is already viable, and she's probably has a higher execution barrier than Jill.
 
Did anyone else chuckle a little when they saw hawkeye eating all those prone shots? Thinking about it, what other move besides his supers aim that low to hit Chris? The arrow rain is one. edit oh yea the flip
 
a high level Jill is so f'ing hard too block... I was trying to keep up with her movement, I would have gotten opened up like 10 time lol

The meta game IS rewarding high execution characters.

Magneto, Morrigan, Viper, Dante are high execution characters.

Jill has too many weaknesses to be a common character on top of being hard to play. You can get similar results with Wolverine for less effort.
 
Yeah, she wasn't using the quick overheads she needed to open him up.
Her Trish's movement felt a bit stiff too. Especially in the air, which seems to me to be very important to Trish's game. I kept expecting her to airdash away in the air like Kbrad does.

That's generally been the issue with rushdown characters- they try and make them good, but Wolverine being present just negates the reward for bothering to learn them. Nerfing him for diversity's sake (in a not-happening hypothetical patch) would be a reasonable rationale.
 
Yea Jeanette's Trish and Hawkeye were a bit suspect. It's a team designed purely around Chris' zoning. Peakaboo for close quarters and the Hawkeye up shot to cover his weakspot.

I think both X23 and Jill need to be able to convert off throws/SJ height to be picked alongside Wolverine, Felicia and Spencer. Simple nerf to Wolverine would not be enough.
 
I'm kinda mad that I missed most of NCR for babysitting, but all's good now that I'm back. Did I miss anything spectacular?
