    It's happening again ... Deflect Bug



    So like you can see, the bug fix for Berserker in 1.05 wasn't the real deal (i knew this from the very first moment)
    It happened today multiple times to me.

    But the bug isn't the main issue here.
    The current problem is lies in Deflect itself.

    We have 4 kinds of deflects:

    PK, Berserker, Orochi, Shinobi

    Which deflects are currently the best ones?

    1. Shinobi
    2. Orochi
    3. Berserker
    3. PK


    1. Shinobis deflect
    - is the safest
    - it is fast
    - good dmg
    - possiblities to mix up

    Through the deflect alone you apply bleed automaticly, teleport to the back of you enemy, and with a light you get the bleed dmg from a PK but much safer, or can use a kick to drain stamina and mix up.

    2. Orochi deflect
    - you can deflect light or deflect heavy
    - light will always hit
    - heavy has hyperarmor
    - you can interrupt the heavy into a light or a GB

    Orochis light is safe, except against chars with hyperarmor (this is a special case and generally only happens against Berserker and Shugoki).
    He has mixups out of his heavy, but his heavy is not safe.

    3. Berserker deflect
    - automaticly GBs enemy

    You get a GB, this is a quite good reward (throw, wallcombo, or just a side heavy) but it is a really slow dmg, in compare to every other deflect.
    In 1v1 this isn't a problem, but in 4v4s this deflect is not worth against many opponents, also the automatic GB is a drawback aswell, because if you are ganked and wanna dodge out of this, in happens that you accidentally deflect an attack -> that means you are dead because you stuck in a GB animation and still in the gank.
    Also, if you deflect someone and somebody other attacks your enemy, the deflect is for nothing.

    4. PK deflect
    - its the most unsafe deflect
    - dmg is ok

    Same problem against Berserker and Shugoki like Orochi. But PK doesn't have much more.
    It is a pretty simple deflect, Fast dmg, good dmg, but nothing more.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I think Berserker and PK deflect definetly needs a look.
    Berserker needs a Rework, and PK maybe a Buff or a Rework (not sure about PK)

    Berserker Deflect Rework suggestion
