Suggested fix for Zone Indicator Bug | Forums

[Solkoss]

Suggested fix:
In short, make zone attacks Feint + Heavy instead of Light + Heavy. Make it so feint has to be held before heavy.

Problem:
Heavy + Light are the current keys to initiate a zone attack. If one is pressed a split second before the other (very hard to press both at the exact same time on a controller), your opponent sees a split second indicator show up in the direction of your guard than the zone indicator. There is no way to react so good luck having any chance at blocking any fast zone.

In tournament play, and some high level 1v1 battles, players use this over and over plus mix it together with other attacks to keep you on your toes. It's a huge problem!

Would love to see a reply for Ubi staff

I like it. I agree that the only way they will fix flicker bug is to change the input.

It should be feint + light instead of feint + heavy, because it would otherwise be easy to accidentally trigger ZA in the middle of feint mixups due to input buffer.
