Since now the top light combo has been nerfed and Orochi does not have a viable kit compared to the others can we have his rework be pushed up to the top?
Some things I'd like to see, his Riptide strike make that controllable. Allow it to be held like storm rush and released when necessary. Maybe unblockable and the pullback distance needs to be further so he doesn't get hit as he moves back. Do something with his side light attacks as they are easily telegraphed and currently not usable. His Dash attack maybe make that more like shamans where you can attack from either side. Also both deflects need to uninterruptible as they are great risks so they should be rewarded. It's discouraging when you land a deflect and the attack is stopped, it makes you feel like you should have just gone with a parry instead.

To be honest here, I think orochi's doesn't need that much of a rework pre-s5 patch, just a better riptide that didn't get gb'ed and has HA, maybe one new opener to change up his game. Now, he needs a pressure move desperately. Deflecting heavy maybe goes into an unblockable melee(that catches dashes) instead of gb? Sounds nice to me
