Who the actual *** thought Sareena was fit for launch?

[Jumbogrunt]

Seriously. There's literally no point in using any other Kameo. How did QA oversee this? Who was testing this because there clearly weren't human beings quality testing this.

Her assist is broken, not unbalanced, BROKEN because of these reasons:
- Full-screen, almost unreactable presence
- Still comes out even if Sareena is hit
- Getting hit in the air gives you moon gravity making hit-confirms child's play
- Projectiles come back even if the player is hit, and also has enough hitstun afterwards for full combo conversions

This ♥♥♥♥ is so dumb, man. I'm seriously considering putting the game down until this trash is fixed because it's all I see every match and for good reason.

P.S. If you use this Kameo you're carried and you suck.

Read my post about how getting 2% of damage and a stolen turn is not a fair tradeoff for making a hard read. Sorry, not sorry.

Only thing you can do as far as I know is Reptile crocodile roll(not efficient if you don't play Reptile lol) or use fatal blow after blocking hit 2...if your kharacters fatal blow will even hit depending on distance. I agree Sareena sucks...

I'd probably make the corner your new residency.

I don't know a single top player that runs Sarena, she's already a noob meme.

Uh, that's what fighting games are. if you can't start a combo with a low profile, then yeah, you'll get 2%.

With her buddy Smoke.

She can practically allow most characters to get a full combo even at full screen if you happen to get hit by her projectiles. Once they're out, they're out no matter what, and having to avoid this things all the time especially when those that use them always seem to keep away until they've recharged again. I think we can all agree that serena can be annoying.

As for smoke, yeah he's gotta go. I don't know where that dude is going half the time. :) Such an annoying character to fight regardless of the players skill level.

"Annoying" doesn't mean good, it's just scrubby and works well in low ranks because people don't know how to deal with it. As others said, you can duck the return part and interrupt with a down poke to take your turn back, so it's not real pressure lol.

As for Smoke, he's a pretty standard 50/50 character, apart from the fact he can turn invisible as a gimmick to try to catch you off guard, but you can easily down poke him out of it, so it's not that great. His 50/50 options are also unsafe and you can blow him up if you guess right, so I don't see how he's a problem who needs nerfing.

The only characters I would nerf are Kenshi, Baraka and Raiden.

[Larry]

Apart from just low poking them to get rid of Sareena, which is absolutely a good trade off since they just wasted a kameo use, it is possible to get a full combo after ducking the sickles, and can even be continued after being hit by them when they return.

Can literally punish it for 50% depending on your character and starter.

Funniest thing about Sareena is that she gives you a safe on block invincible reversal but nobody uses it; they just wanna throw their sickles and get counter hit.

[Mr Eko]

You can only interrupt with a down poke if in range which the player never needs to be with her. Although raiden has some nice damage, he's pretty easy to deal with and also quite easy to punish. Baraka, all you have to do is block low and punish. He has a slow overhead which is easy to react to and punish. Again, he can do nice damage though when gets a hit. Kenshi, well I agree with that one, nerf him. But it does require a little more skill to use him properly so there is that.

Huh? If some scrub does Sareena blades from full screen, you can simply neutral duck them. I don't see what you're on about here, those blades are only a problem when they're being used as mock pressure, but a simple low poke can get you out of the situation with advantage. Their only real use is kombo extension, really.

Raiden has 45-50% kombos for one bar, that's excessive. He also has excellent kameo synergy with Jax for meterless damage of over 40%. Therefore, he needs a damage nerf.

Baraka is an ooga-booga rushdown character with safe overhead/low mixups and a very strong projectile to zone with. He pretty much has everything. His synergy with Cyrax is probably the most broken combination in the current meta, he gets to make his pressure safe with Cyrax spin, he has a double hitting mid that stuffs armored wake-ups and leads to a full kombo and he is super easy to play on top of all that. Did I mention he gets 50+% kombos for 1 bar? Yeah, he's probably the second most broken character in the game after Kenshi and definitely needs nerfs.

Kenshi is Kenshi, don't feel like I need to explain further. Nerf that character ASAP.
