Phew...
Was worried for a moment there.

She's not the monster she used to be, but when you put the work in, she's still really good.

I don't know where all this Helena nerf talk came from either. Ive been fucking online up with her.

She has been nerfed. She's slightly slower, more unsafe, her P+K doesn't crush as many mids as it used to(still a monster for crushing highs though) and her damage output took a hit too. But like I said, she's still usable. She's a former top tier character made mid tier. At least those are my thoughts right now, I still think it's to early to say anything for sure. All I know is I love Helena in this game, her CB game is looking pretty good I think.

I've noticed a bit of a trend. It seems like all the grapple/hold based characters (i.e Bass, Tina and Bayman) have been noticeably buffed. Bass and Tina seem really good now especially with most people's counterholds being nerfed now. From what I've seen of Helena, even with her nerfs, she still seems very effective.

On a different note, is it me or can Rig be a bit of a cheapass? His strategy always seems to be to just mash out random kicks as much as possible.
