Reflections about this patch:


Version A:

Luka and Silla have finally been nerfed !! Both of them deserved it !!

Good job Bigball !! You've revived the game !!

The recall system is a bonus. Stop complaining about it.
The developers are kind enough to give you recalls 

The nerfs this patch are not that bad. Many assists actually got buffed.

Look at Nari. She got a reflex buff. Look at Luka, now she generates 20% spirit on steal.

Now assist active CD is reduced to 10 minutes !! We can do more active passes now.

Let's rejoice.


Version B:

Fuck, all these penetration power nerf. How are we going to fucking kill those Angela - Duran backlines now???

All these efforts that we place into building the players are gone !! Our players are nerfed to the ground and becomes useless.

Why waste our fucking time on this game when they are going to nerf it anyway?

Recall? Last time the recall system makes more sense. You could recall for sho sho, to superb a worthy season 2 assist.

Now ?? Recall Luka and Silla for Nari? Neraizel? Or we might as well recall Luka for Silla and Silla for Luka. Fuck our life.

How are we going to fucking get 5 littres to superb another season 2 assist ?? 

Draw them?? Do 4x 10+1 draws and no 5* drops. How the fuck are we supposed to draw them??

Spent 20,000 crystals drawing and no season 2 legends. WTF?

Boosted drop rates?? Keep getting dupes of season 1 legends that we already have fspu.

When are season 2 legends going to get on DS shop already??

Season 3 when?? where?? What the fuck are you doing Bigball??

No new content?? Only nerfs every patch

Club match still suck BIG TIME.

Bug fixes?? Coming soon?? How many months has it been already??

Next Round of Revision:

It is still unclear what will be the best replacement for Luka - Silla front.

There might not be a standard replacement or best replacement at all.

Strikers' ratings post penetration power nerf will require quite some time to evaluate.

Especially when the ideal/cancer/common frontline is changing and unsettled.

Patch Review:

Constant balancing (buffs and nerfs) are still being carried out every patch, in the midst of ongoing PvP season.

After the nerf treatment given to season 1 players, the new trend now is the buff treatment given to season 2 players.

The developers seem to be trying to introduce similar players of different elements.

Ernesto is like the WW milky way while Butcher is remade to be like the shu/virgil of the thunder element.

It has been more than 3 months since last major patch. Everyone is still waiting for official announcements regarding the next major patch.

New Players:

Ernesto (A rating)

• From his active and passive skills, he is probably meant to be the WW milky way.
  
  
• Compared to milky, he has no critical rate in active, no speed buff.
  
  Milky Way is mainly used only for vonchi. So Ernesto is probably not meant for vonchi but for the normal OHKO strikers.
  
  
• Compared to Elaine/linmay as frontline totem, his utility and damage buffing is lower.
  
  
• For PvE, his totem requires stacking so it is not that suitable for PvE and his damage buffing is way lower than elaine.
  
  
• Hence, we will give him an average A rating to start with, and put him on further observations.

Latest Round of Revision (9th July):

Patch Review & Latest News:

This patch is a peaceful patch; the calm before the storm (major patch).

On a sidenote, many endgame players have received permanent bans.

New Players:

Damien

• We are not exactly sure how his 2nd passive works atm; hence we will review him later.
  
  
• He doesn't really look that good with 40% critical rate from skill and 25% penetration power only with active. 
  
  
• 25% of the enemy attack power (a.k.a enemy backlines) might be even less than 25% of his own attack power.
  
  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Because enemy backline are defenders with low attack power.
  
  But attack power is a huge word because it includes both dribble + steal. 
  
  So we need to find out more about him.

New EEs:

Sue (A- > A-)

• Increase in stats, 10% more reflex, action speed and max HP
  
  
• Ratings remain unchanged. 

Muspel (B > A+)

• First, we look at his stone slots, he can equip TW and 2 reflex stones like Silla.
  
  
• Second, he has the defender AI
  
  
• Third, now he gets 50% more reflex when attacked or on steal.
  
  
• Hence, he can be a very effective frontline reflex wall and stealer.
  
  
• In addition, he has the 40% defense debuff totem which all comes together to imply that he is planned/meant to be used in frontline.
  
  
• We understand that most people would not rate Muspel this high due to the lack of teams using him.
  
  But we will see if we are right ;) A+ is not that high actually too.

Shanti (B+/A+ > S-/S-)

• 40% increased damage received to target + 30% more damage to ardor/thunder GK
  
  
• The value of the passive that deals more damage to GKs of certain elements is 5% higher than sharr.
  
  That shows Bigball is starting to give higher values to the passives of season 2 strikers compared to season 1.
  
  
• Overall, her damage output will still be lower than Sharr, even if we do not consider the elements.
  
  She also lacks the elemental advantage against endgame PvE GK, Jin/BT.
  
  
• S- for PvE and S- for PvP

Balancing:

Hiro (S- > S-)

• 10% increased damage. Hardly a buff.

Other Revisions:

Victoria (A+ > S-)

• Noticed that Victoria ratings needs to be revised in this reflex meta.
  
  Her 50% reflex buff becomes extremely useful.
  
  
• Her DR and ability to revive line on critical hits also works great.

Lol, the review for 7* players is not done yet and a huge wave of utility strikers balancing.... 

   ;dead

And which server would you recommend?

thats 200 crystals not DS

still much better than 30 crystals we tend to see =P

First off, here comes the striker tier list update:
