why is the female saiyan's basic attack move set so slow?
i don't get this design decision, why is the female saiyan so slow compared to all other races
it makes it completely unfair to fight against every other character

and it also makes the ki buff a female saiyan has pointless cause to get a good chance at firing a ki move at an opponent, you need to do some basic attacks 1st so that the opponent doesn't avoid your attack so easily

i really hope there will be an update some day that buffs the basic attack movement speed of a female saiyan cause this is really getting annoying right now

+1 I have noticed the same .
Its so much easier for someone to break a female saiyans combos than any other race.
Theres too manny slow and dead spots in there combo chain.

Make her the shortest and thinnest and she will be a little bit quicker. Even then it doesn't make much of a difference.

The speed with which the attacks actually happen don't matter. The spaces between the attacks are not enough to allow Block to function, and Vanish will function regardless of how fast the attacks are as long as you have enough stamina.

I play a female Saiyan. Yes, there are SOME gaps at the ends of chains, but those are there by design. There's also a glaring gap at the end of the male Saiyan chain, the overhead spike attack. Very easy to avoid.

Yes, the basic attack chains from the female Saiyan seem to happen more slowly, but it doesn't affect gameplay at all. The chains are no easier to break out of than any other character's.

I can confirm this, as my main is a basic attack fe-saiyan. Play more with her combos and you will get used to the "slowness". One good thing I've noted is that the fe-saiyan heavy combo spreads it's power across most of it and not just in a few key attacks. This means you will be hitting already quite hard by the 3rd or 4th hit. And she's easy to roll combo extensions with by mixing light and heavy.

This is correct.
female saiyan also has some of the best attacks for linking into stamina break or supers because there's a deceptive amount of "hitstun" on a lot of her attacks.
So while her animations don't seem as fast as freeza race or male saiyan, her attacks give you a lot of time to hit confirm into a specific follow-up.

except when you are playing online where the lag screws up a female saiyans combo way too easily

stop playing with mexicans and asians. its not "the netcode" its that youll be matched with people in 3rd worldshitholes constantly and people with some dial up level internet.

Overall the combos are bad for female saiyans.

Everytime someone mentions a games netcode being bad as their excuse...I cringe. Just say you have ♥♥♥♥♥♥ internet, or you lag a lot...or hell you can even blame the other players, but start blaming a games "netcode" you start to look like a dumbass, because...then literally everyone would be suffering from this "bad netcode" which would mean, it's not effecting you in any worse a way than the people you're playing with.
