nerf nier?

[ice]

i dont play this character an didn't find that hard to deal with but apparently everyone saying nier is busted? i dont want to spend some time on the character if they'll nerf

She is strong but not necessary broken (She got a lot of weakness once you know how to deal with her), still kinda need some nerf with her stock usage. H variant should cost 2 or something.

She's not gonna get gutted or anything, just play her if you really want to.

There're a few reasons why ppl are calling for a nerf.
While she has apparent weaknesses, her pressure is extremely oppressive and her combo potential is high for relatively little risk. She can deal really good damage from pretty much any distance if she manage to land a single hit, and at low HP, it's very easy to get chipped to death.

I haven't quite made up my own opinion about her myself but I can def see why some ppl are calling for nerfs. Ultimately, being able to do full combo anywhere on the screen just by landing a 66L is pretty nuts.

Yes, remove the invincibility from the EX special when she summons death and make the rapid strike from death dodgeable.

i don't want them to nerf anyone right now. too early for that tbh
imo cag is stronger than nier anyways

[Rhythmless Ninja]

I can't name a single puppet character that isn't annoying to fight. It just comes with the territory. That said, I think all Nier needs though is adjusting her stacks management to have some kind of drawbacks and penalties for carelessly using them. Those things are free real estate as is.

After I S ranked my Narmaya in 4 days, I tried Nier and I S ranked her within 2 days
She's one of those characters that I hate to deal with but now I'm cooking with her. So much that I have to change my name into "Nerf Nier pls"

Her EX special does not have invincibility, it does have Super Armor though and you must break it with a special move rather than just smashing button.

shes pretty strong but she doesnt need nerfs people are complaining because they mash on her DP and she can cancel it into another special

people also say her damage is to high? check out sieg or cag or almost anyone idk what to say lol

I agree. If one character got nerfed then other character will definitely got nerfed too. That's kinda destroy the fun of this game.
The only character that I think she need a buff is Narmaya because her EX Freeflutter: Crescent Moon is literally a scam. It can be blocked while crouching when it's supposed to be an overhead. Not only that, despite the description wrote it has invincibility that make it effective at PUNISHING ANTI-AIR attempts, she still got punished by simple down heavy or light attack even though I paid 50% of my bar. I'm learning other characters now until they fix this move.

a lot of moves are like that
for example, metera's jump heavy can also be blocked crouching in the 2nd hit

[幼蟲的紫大人]

just play seig, don't even need to learn, so no downside when he's nerfed

[Squidvasion]

at lower levels you can straight up just crouch block until they run out of hearts and then run down poor Nier all by herself without the help of Death. i wish i were kidding but its an option since most newer/mid level players will be using 3 hearts per string even if you're blocking.

[ange fumo]

character that gets big combos off stray hits in neutral its just the HC ♥♥♥♥ all over again just block until its your turn and hope they dont know mix

People complain about everything right now. This forum is a massive saltmine.

Yet for some reason nobody actually complains about Anila, a character that has a fullscreen anti air, specials that are generally safe and cannot be crossed under, as well as insane pokes that can lead to insane damage; in short a character so busted that even a moron could win with her.
