DJ, Dragunov, Jun and Reina nerfs! That's great news! However, Azucena and Victor untouched is weird. Are they seriously suggesting Victor's grabs are not bugged? Well holy f***-a-molly.

I'm not sure. There are "other bug fixes" listed in the patch notes, so they could have just fixed it and not explicitly mentioned it in the patch notes, or they just didn't fix it.

Pretty sure they would have mentioned it along with the other tweaks for characters as it is character specific update.

Also no mention of shader compilation errors being fixed! big yikes!

Reina had a nerf but a buff too, consistency with her ewgf is great.

Victor and Azucena are balanced, learn the matchup. Victors grabs are clearly intended to be that way. Cope.

They'll adjust balance slowly over time. It's much better to do 10 small nerfs than 1 huge nerf and completely ruin a character.

and here i was thinking the first balance patch would be when Eddy releases

Labbing in practice mode, they feel easier to break now to me.

Most games need it, they just don't get it.

I’m happy they nerfed rather than buff everybody.
People say they prefer buffs but then cry that the damage is too high and too mashing friendly.

I’m surprised about Victor. He is a grappler now.

[Lokran]

Still waiting for optimization.

[Cheez3™]

meanwhile dragunov is basically the same and seems like king and asuka are unchanged too.

"people is having fun with reina"
HAVING FUN??????????? NERF THAT SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII*

Victor and Azucena are fairly balanced characters, just new. Reina may still require some tweaking, but time will tell though.
