Hate Speech: PATCH NOTE APOCALYPSE

@AKNova
She has arguably the weakest damage because she is arguable the best at pressuring. Compare that to someone like sieg, who basically should one-hit kill by that logic.
 
Comparing her to one of the top characters in the game is always going to mean you want more buffs. 20 other characters wish they were as powerful as alpha pat. And lexia rightfully shouldn't.

Rightfully? Give me a break, what gives Alpha the right to be so good? He, of all people, get very minor nerfs, and a BUFF to Shade Thrust (New Version of it.) Come on, you can't be that blind.

Why are you comparing pre patch to post-patch ? Relatively, every character (except for 4) got nerfed to various degrees, so the collective effect isn't as severe.

Not as severe? They took away, nearly every way for Leixia to get any kind of damage above 60 without performing a CE. According to Ring, who claims the patch is available in Europe, says WR B BE, BT B+K, 3B does 58 damage now. Compared to the 83 before. This is crazy.

I don't play either but its obvious that lexia has much better step containing tools and better guard burst then the almighty pat. You should take your own advice and try to stick to your strengths instead of attempting to trade shot-for-shot.

They nerfed a lot of the Guard Burst, that's no problem, but then they went even FURTHER than that. I mean, cool, she has two things better than him. He wins in: Priority, Damage, Range, Combo Length, Combo Damage, and now since they nerfed what they did, probably safety too.

Take a look at the blue pentagon charts whenever you choose leixia and run your eyes to the "power" axis. You'll notice that leixia is the lowest out of any character, so its intentional.

This article should exactly be for people like you. I don't know if reading it again would do you any good though.

Stop being such a tool. Leixia has no damage, and relied on evasiveness, guard burst, safety, and speed, three of which they nerfed. I understand exactly what he was trying to say, but bringing Leixia into this is just ridiculous. Of all examples, going out of the way to mention WR B BE is ridiculous. Needless to say, there were bigger problems to deal with. Alpha being one of them. If Leixia got nerfed, he deserved to be nerfed with her.

Guard burst and step killing being a reason alone to nerf somebody. I've never heard so much BS in my life. Stop being such a tool, and think about the game overall, would you?

I don't disagree with her damage being low, I disagree with the nerfs she received BECAUSE her damage is low. I'm not asking for a damage buff, in fact, they didn't say it, but she actually got a damage nerf. Her staple WR B BE, BT B+K, 3B combo is apparently, 58 damage now because of stun scaling. Wonderful. All I have to say about her damage, is, compared to SC4, the damage in this game is much higher, and here's Leixia doing even less damage than her mother in SC4. Come on, now. Everyone knows to pressure people, you have to take risks yourself. And when you do, there's a nice chance of eating a counter hit. Apparently Natsu's allowed to 4A+B someone for a third of a bar for breathing wrong while being just as fast as Leixia, but Leixia has damage from a BRAVE EDGE and step-killing and she has to be nerfed? Uggh. People.
 
So far I like what I see, but I'll reserve judgement until the game gets a chance to breath with the new patch. Kudos to Namco and PS for getting on top of balancing the game this quickly. Hopefully, we'll get out of the patching phase (meaning all the patches necessary to make the game perfect) fast enough to have the best version ever.

Please quote me where I said he deserves a buff. Your problem is you're reaching too much into comments. The thing you should have gotten from my advice to you is that 20 other characters are in the same boat as you so stop acting like you're the only character with nerfs.
Not as severe? They took away, nearly every way for Leixia to get any kind of damage above 60 without performing a CE. According to Ring, who claims the patch is available in Europe, says WR B BE, BT B+K, 3B does 58 damage now. Compared to the 83 before. This is crazy.
My main lost his main poke (with BE just for comparison's sake) from 80 to now approx 44ish. You don't honestly think leixia is the only character nerfed do you ? If you like combo heavy characters, there are other characters more up your alley.
They nerfed a lot of the Guard Burst, that's no problem, but then they went even FURTHER than that. I mean, cool, she has two things better than him. He wins in: Priority, Damage, Range, Combo Length, Combo Damage, and now since they nerfed what they did, probably safety too.
Again, thats what most other characters have to deal with too.
Stop being such a tool.
If thats what it'll take to repair you.
Leixia has no damage, and relied on evasiveness, guard burst, safety, and speed, three of which they nerfed.
Her speed for moves that she actually relies on to be fast, have not really changed. So I dont' get where you are drawing this blanket conclusion.
I understand exactly what he was trying to say, but bringing Leixia into this is just ridiculous. Of all examples, going out of the way to mention WR B BE is ridiculous.
Its a pretty good example of an obvious overpowered move. You know how it's overpowered ? The fact that you're so dependent on it because you can't even think about other ways to pull out a win. When one move dominantes your playstyle so much, it is worth addressing.
Needless to say, there were bigger problems to deal with. Alpha being one of them. If Leixia got nerfed, he deserved to be nerfed with her.
First agreeable thing you've said, except its not "needless to say". I always thought you were honestly just whining about leixia for the last 20 minutes.
Stop being such a tool, and think about the game overall, would you?
I'll stop being a tool when you start being reasonable. I read your comments exactly as they were typed, because I dont' want to jump to conclusions and post about stuff I don't know about. If you meant to say alpha pat should have been nerfed more, then you should have said so earlier instead of telling people to "grab on reaction" against leixia's wrB BE.
