MARVEL CYCLE TIME!
Nerf three strong characters, buff one strong character, buff three weak characters, nerf one weak character and make three system-wide changes.
WOW I actually agree with a lot of those especially those Vergil ones, those are the exact ones I had previously (although I would reduce the durability/time/hits from 6 to 4).
Here's my list:
NERFS
Zero:
*Cancelling Raikousen with Buster prevents the move from having an active hit box on the screen.
*Minimum special/normal damage scaling values reduced by half each.
*Buster LVL3 charge time increased by 90 frames.
*Raikousen no longer causes soft knockdown.
Doom:
*Hidden Missiles are disabled/destroyed like Drones if Doom is hit as an assist character. The move maintains property as a point character.
*Minimum normal damage scaling values reduced. Special damage scaling is the same.
*Hit box priority on Foot Dive including above the knee greatly reduced.
*Max hit stun from his st.M and st.H reduced so that he can't do 4 relaunches in a row.
Viper:
*EX Seismo cannot be jump cancelled and is unsafe on block.
*Optic blast recharge glitch removed.
*Minimum normal/special damage scaling values reduced
*TK hit stun reduced at max scaling, preventing infinites
Strange
*Flames of Faltine minimum hit stun reduced
BONUS (because fuck it I wanna)
Vergil (in addition to the ones God's Beard already mentioned)
*St.H horizontal nerfed to better represent the animation
*Helm Breaker cannot be special cancelled into anything other than Teleports and hypers
*Dimension Slash cannot randomly cross up
BUFF
Iron Man
*Can cancel out of ground dash at anytime
*Down/forward air dash has significantly faster start up time but retains all other properties
*St.H has same horizontal range as cr.M allowing for universal hitconfirmation off of cr.M
*Proton Cannon causes soft knockdown if canceled before the last hit. Last hit of PC also causes more hit stun meaning it's no longer possible to punish IM even if he connects PC in the corner.
*Smart Bombs reworked, has a chargeable version that tracks opponent and has more durability
Storm
*Lightning Storm hyper causes soft knockdown state like Thor's Mighty Tornado if canceled before final hit. Easier to DHC out of it into another hyper.
*Double Typhoon start up decreased by 30 frames at least. Can now be charged for 70 frames for a more powerful, longer lasting and higher durability typhoon. The charged version comes out as an assist and works like a Jam Session that can also OTG.
*Lightning Sphere recovery reduced, hit stun increased (works like Air Play). Can be charged for a bigger hit box, more durability and more hit stun also like Air Play.
Iron Fist
*Can use Rising Fang and the shoulder move any time he wants. Rising Fang is air OK.
*Cr.L hits low
*Chi system reworked. Red Chi parries low attacks countering with an invincible crumple stun AND gives additional block damage to Rekka moves. Blue Chi parries high attacks countering with an invincible Shoulder tackle AND gives 1 hit of super armor on all Rekka moves. Green chi parries projectiles countering with an invincible Rising Fang AND allows IF to build meter by whiffing Rekkas.
*New hyper added: Zen (D, D + Att) All Chis are activated at the same time for a set duration of time.
*Dive kick added mapped to d+H, causes ground bounce on aerial target and stagger on counter hit.
*IF now capable of double jumping
*Crescent Heel now has slightly faster start up (for faster OTGs off throws) and keeps opponent standing if it hits them while they are standing.
Wesker:
*The hyper counter has start up invincibility like Vanilla Marvel
*Projectile counter teleports Wesker closer to the opponent
BONUS:
Thor (aside from the ones that God's Beard mentioned):
*Cr.M and st.H have one hit of super armor each
*Mighty Thunder has more push back and less recovery frames
*Mighty Punish ends with a ground bounce that Thor can combo off of
SYSTEM WIDE CHANGES
*X factor values reduced from 40/70/100 (on average) to 30/50/70. A similar proportion is applied to speed increases as well. Further more, damage/speed buffs will not stack multiplicatively with X factor bonuses (meaning no more Vergil 220% damage boost or garbage like that).
*TACs have a 25 frame window of color animation in which you can counter it (it's only slightly slower than a Spencer overhead to react to). Connecting a TAC successfully resets hit stun back to 0 but will build back up normally. Meter gain from TAC combos is halved.
*Guard breaks removed, you are no longer guaranteed a throw against advance guarding. You can also no longer be guaranteed a throw if you manage to throw the opponent during their tech recovery phase (currently only Wolverine can really do this thanks to his Berserker Charge decreasing recovery on his tech).
BONUS
*Throws reset characters at a further distance that current. Teching air throws at super jump height disables assist usage like normal.
