Aramusha needs Nerf. | Forums

[AramushaNurf]

Okay.. There has already been a lot of debate about this and I am up for nerfing him because the first time I faught a actual decent player with the character and he stunlocks me in the middle of a open field with orochi, unable to do anything at the time since I didn't know his moves and this was the first time that I called b-s since my character was stunlocked so damn hard that my guy wouldn't even put his guard up. Usually I am a god at orochi even against new characters which I easily learn to play against so to me this was like "NERF, NERF, NERF."

[REMINDER: On console]

Then I begun my search upon the forums to see how to defeat him and received some tips I have yet to test but the thing is that these tips are pretty bad since it requires me to either get hit or not use an assassin. Why do I have to do all this to appease an b-s character and broken reflex/guard. Like for example; people look to DrFranknNoodles test on how to fight back and it requires you to eat attacks even when your a squishy assassin and either have zero stamina so you can only block 9/10 attacks.. It's dumb. For console players, he commented that we are going to have to just adapt and deal with it but I think that its impossible for example -

People could just main aramusha and get a competitive team of four and attack online matches because it requires actual time to take down just one of them. Not skill, no because their characters don't really require skill to just throw lights while wiggling the joy stick every direction and if you got a feint master using this character then may god save you.

Again in a team of four against four of them or even one skilled one with a group of brutes to jump in then your team is likely getting ****ed. How do I remember and perform my lovely *eat sides and block tops* with precision while an berserker is hammering my side. Myself and this account is dedicated to nerfing aramusha for the end is nigh while he lurks about. Until then.. I am dis-encouraged to play for honor on console.

I really shouldn't touch this but i'm going to.

So off the bat you've established that you wanted to nerf him because you died. Good to know. You then proceed to make comments on skill to a various degree. "skill" is not a factor when it comes to balancing. You can be a pro player and still die to something. You being a "god" orochi player doesn't make you immune to losing. And downplaying something else by mentioning skill just shows you don't have any actual argument to hold yourself up. You're just belittling people.

There will not be a team of 4 aramusha in any competitive setting because for one running a full team of the same hero isn't having a well balanced team comp. Which actually matters. You'd be a fool to not have a nobushi on every team as an example. And aramusha is actually pretty bad in 4v4. He doesn't add anything to team fights and he's not good while surrounded. But you assume this would be good because in your mind he's OP. nothing like confirmation bias eh?

You don't need to get hit to escape his combos. the purpose of that poster showing after being hit and during OOS was to show that it's possible to escape it in those conditions. He was also trying to show that reflex guard is not to blame. If you actually follow most of his posts he states as such. I'm also like 90% sure that the video proof he posted was on a ps4.

Anyway even if he didn't post from a ps4 perspective it has been shown there. And i've personally experienced as an xbox player that it's entirely possible to block and escape his combos consistently. it's harder on consoles. Not impossible. Lag compensation being gone does also mess with the timings of this both on console and pc. But balancing around connection issues is never a good idea.

It's sad that this very well thought out and articulate response to help players will not even be read. =/

You can only help people who want to be helped.
I'd prefer if I didn't have to put nearly every new account who comes here and makes a post like this or worse on my ignore list.

Whether you agree with OP or not, "git gud" comments are typically pretty unhelpful. If you want to offer advice on how to play against a hero, please do so in a genuine, non-condescending manner.

We've let the team know that some players (especially those who play assassin heroes) are concerned with Aramusha, particularly with blocking his light attacks.
