Nuxia is weak af

[Unprogress/Ambicatus]

U can easily parry all of her lights, not to mention her heavies . And the new mechanic is pretty much uselesss.

Do you think that Orochi lights are more reactable than Nuxia's?

She's super fast on both heavies and lights, her trap mechanic does a severe amount of damage if she catches it with you, and she's an assassin so she's got them op deflects. Her health pool seems a little larger than Orochi and Shinobi, too. I'd say she's easily 2nd best Assassin besides Shaman.

Nexia feels like she works best when you're out of stanima, she's kinda like a Raider but if he was a Assassin, you want to try your best to get your opponent out of stanima so you can bait him/her with the Trap mechanic.

Nuxia is probably the weakest assassin they've made honestly. (Am at Rep 5 with her currently)

Her Heavies are super slow, and very easy to react to whether its a trap or a full fledged heavy.

Her lights are pretty low damage, but they can come out pretty quick to catch people off guard.

Her Deflect is blockable if your guard is top, and its her highest damaging move aside from her zone trap.

Zone trap is actually awful.

Nuxia is just a gimmick character, once you get past her gimmick she's terrible. Every other Wu Lin character who has a deflect has it as unblockable. All the other characters have all these crazy soft feints, dodge tracking attacks, and awesome ways to put pressure onto the opponent. But when nuxia tries to apply that pressure you just lose stamina and get ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Once you learn her match up she's brain dead easy to beat. Don't get me wrong I still love her design intention and her playstyle (as someone who mains shugoki and hates assassins I love Nuxia). But I dunno, she def feels a bit on the weak side.

I've been playing Orochi alot because of the cool gear they added for him, and it really just feels like she can't do anything against an Assassin, it's hard to really bait people into a trap when all a Assassin player is doing constantly is reacting or attacking, but when I'm out of stanima it's a whole differen't story.
They should try to give her a move or something that can take off stanima quickly like Raider's front grab, she definetly feels like she's meant to keep a opponent out of stanima.

Her health pool is larger than Orochi and Shinobi?! She has literally no head protection, 1 hit and she's ♥♥♥♥♥♥. The logic in this game man, wait what am I saying they added magic.
