Shugoki better not be getting nerf'd.... | Forums

I think anyone who plays mostly dominion should have no say in what characters are overpowered. To put it bluntly, a full team of pk's or wardens or conqs or warlords could easily wipe the floor with a full team of Shugo's. When you play nothing but duel or brawl you get to know the characters strengths and weaknesses on a much more in depth level. Shugo is countered by 3 quarters of the game's characters. Saying shugoki is A tier, to put things bluntly, is ******ed.All you have to do is dodge... If you can't do that then you're not fit for this game. Unlike conq/warden/warlord unblockable where it's literally next to impossible if not impossible to avoid their charges... Shugo's charge drains a huge portion of his stamina pool and what I've come to realize now that I've put a ton of time into him is that shugo's health bar comes second to his stamina pool. When you are low or out of stamina... lol You're dead. You are legit dead. You can't dodge, you can't move and your chances of parrying lightening fast attacks or unblockable charges that lock onto you even if you dodge... Not to mention warden can gb you while doing his charge.. It's ridiculous. You have no idea how HARD it is to play Shugoki.

Oh and are people really talking about your slim as all hell chance to pull off the death grip 1 hit kill?... Really? If you're that low on health chances are you have tried to parry or gb already and failed multiple times. If by luck you manage to pull off something to get the person against a wall, then good on you. You have no idea how rare it is to pull that off...

I main Shugoki now and when I'm frustrated with losing a few matches I swap to pk and win repeatedly over and over, same with warden.

He has too much health? What? 2 top heavies from warden take my health down to the last bar. What are you people talking about?

Where every other character has speed and an assortment of unblockable moves to lead to assured damage, Shugo has a charge you can dodge and if you're garbage he does 1 heavy before going back into panic mode. Fighting level 10 not even prestige 1 orochi/pk/conq is a nightmare for me. lmao

My advice to you is don't join matches with pro troll teams that all work in synch by picking one character and masterfully winning against the odds, only to blame the character for your loss. It's your fault for joining an oriental bukake. If you still think Shugo is easy mode give him a try. Spam charge until you're out of stamina and get vortex'd to death in one combo. Every. Single. Time.

Obviously you are a troll or a complete ignorant.

I'm sure that their intention for Oni Charge isn't going to be a nerf but more of a rework. Shugoki is my favorite character. He's got a simple moveset but it takes a lot of practice and patience to make it work. I personally only ever use the Oni Charge as an opener at the beginning of a round or when I'm fighting turtleling opponents.

I'm very interested to see how they handle it because Oni Charge is all he has against heroes like Conqueror. Reason being, his play style is trading blows. If his opponent isn't throwing anything then he can't trade. The Oni Charge forces them to act or be whittled down till they die.

It definitely has a cheesy feel to it. I always feel dirty when I am forced to overuse it because it's obvious that the way it's being used right now in competitive was not intentional. Really though he needs his Oni Charge, otherwise he won't be able to hold his own in duels.
