Why does Giant Piccolo have I-frames during his Super attack?

[Legion716]

Serious question.

Cuz he basically moves around the same as a great ape but can run, has slower flight speed, & can't use actives or passives i think?
Plus it's very slow, deals ok damage, & has very little range at all

Orange Piccolo on his own i feel like is fine, Cell Max is just pretty weak (despite also having an invincible super attack, a combo breaker, a dash, instant descent, & a run) esp when most of the time you'll hardly have any time to play as him during the match

What i wanna know is why the kb gauge depleting stuns him for a long time while still being very susceptible to plain ass stuns
Why not just have the former & Orange Piccolos hits holding him down?

orange giant needs SOMETHING. but it shouldnt be as abusable. as in you should have longer endlag so assuming the max dodges, he can actually get a few attacks in. instead of 1 at best.

or it gets put on a short cooldown forcing you to actually dodge max for a short time

All giants have been susceptible to stuns with no counter. the only difference is max has a evasive that Damages players closeby.

theres no reason to use the evasive for avoiding giant melees, you get the time to mash out a super after the first punch. just use it to confirm STM destruction by knocking everyone away.

max is best used for killing everyone else first. like the movie. Orange is just a giant bluff of a transphere. cant do ♥♥♥♥ to max without risking deletion. and if you risking it. prepare to get supered for 30% of your hp.

Because it takes 10 years to come out and doesn't even do more damage than just mashing the melee button. It's a mixup used so that he doesn't get absolutely destroyed in 5 seconds by cell max using his charge super that does half of his health and also grants iframes. The giant vs giant gameplay is a battle of 50/50's except biggolo has way less health so he absolutely needs backup unless the max player turns it from a 50/50 to a 100/0 by doing the same thing over and over again and making it easy for biggolo to win every exchange
