Hi, my name is Artem. I live in Belarus and I know English bad.
But I registered.
Please nerf bite of the shaman! I'm Shugi and I crying! Why doesn't she lose health when she misses? Why she quickly restore when she misses?
She bites me from a distance behind the teammate!
Please, excuse me for bad English. I studying him.

You're Shugoki and you're crying ? I am a Shaman and I cry against Shugoki due to that annoying hyper armor, it's so difficult to approach and open him up because I always end up taking a hit as he can't be staggered easily, also his attacks while slow can do a good bit of damage.
Also please don't compare Shaman's bite with Shugoki's Demon's Embrace, Shugoki take damage on miss because Demon's Embrace recover more health and it can be fatal if Shugoki has critical health, in simple words it can one shot the opponent if Shugoki has low health, Shaman's bite doesn't have those properties. It's fast and have good range but it doesn't one shot you and unlike Demon's Embrace it can't be done at anytime, you first need bleed on your opponent and then you can bite.

The shaman's version is about three times as fast, she jumps about 6-7 meters forward, and it's guaranteed on any guardbreak, not just wall throws. The Demon's embrace oneshot is strong on paper, but I have seen it about 2 or 3 times happening, it's not that common, everyone is more cautious around a low hp shugoki. He doesn't get guardbreaks from parries now, so it's kinda impossible to use this instakill move. And bleeding an opponent as a shaman isn't that difficult, it can be done by lots of softfeints, feats and guaranteed on gb.
However, the good solution is a shugoki buff, it's fair that he can be guardbroken and loses the armor (so takes about two bars of damage), but an other two bars is a bit too harsh. Nobody uses it in neutral with these conditions, the shugoki dies if he misses this move.

There is no comparison between Shaman and Shugoki, Shaman is a light character with high speed, low health and average damage. Shugoki is a tank, slow but with a lot of damage, health and hyper armor on top of it. Shaman has no hyper armor like Berserker, Kensei and Shugoki on any of her moves.
Shaman's bleed requires close range unlike Nobushi where she's always at risk of light attack or GB and once she put bleed on opponent, the opponent knows that she's going to perform either a GB/Throw for guaranteed bite or bite from far, this makes them cautious and they get ready to either dodge or CGB, there are many instances where I can't land a successful bite and gets punished instead.
Also during 4v4, a lot of Shugokis perform Demon Embrace from side or behind when you're fighting another player and they get successful because you don't get any warning like bleed and if they have critical health then you're done, during 1v1 they often do this after head butt and for the most part they succeed. it's a very powerful move.
