So after spending a lot of time with the new character I can whole heartedly say he’s the most niche character in the game and is bad in a lot of areas. That being said he’s super fun which is a great start now all that needs to happen is some touching up to make him a welcome addition into the cast.

I have a few suggestions consisting of:

-his damage on his neutral heavies being normalized to 27-29

-his neutral zone and heavies gaining hyper armor on the second half of their animation.

-Finisher top heavy “Bonk” stunning for 1 second instead of doing extra damage (this one is just a preference of mine instead of a serious recommendation)

-heavy followups are guaranteed off a parry but have their damage lowered to 10 (another way for him to get stacks more efficiently while also having the option to pick the right damage type for the situation)

• light heavy chain (he lacks pressure and while I enjoy his design…his chain zone just doesn’t provide any danger to the opponent)

• Seven Force Strike damage lowered to 75 (honestly unsure if this is necessary as I know the whole gimmick is for him to work up to this but I feel if he were to get these buffs and then also keep a 95 damage grab it might be a tad too much but you never know)
