What the hell did you do to shugoki this last update!!! | Forums

Why the f am I missing all these demon embraces!!! Easy ones that I know I executed perfectly in dominion. As if shug wasnt bad enough thanks to your stupid nerfs.
On a tamer note: you took away vals shield charge initiated to jump attack which was her best fake out.

They nerfed the ability to have demons embrace go through armor. aka rage mode and highlanders heavies. and im pretty sure they dumbed down the tracking even more to make it even harder to land grabs on people.

They have nerfed this guy to the literal lowest tier on purpose.

They didn't mention a nerf to Shugoki in the patch notes. Where did you guys get this info?

[Neon_WiDoW]

They fixed a bug that almost every shugoki used.
It wasent game breaking. It even helped him be viable in a teamfight vs opponents that use rage stats to their advantage.
But now you cant pick up anyone with demons embrace that has hyper armor. Thus making it slow grab that has only a short straight line that cost 30% of your hp. and it cant actually connect against most targets anyways. Now its just seems impossible unless you get a braindead opponent that doesnt relise you can fast attack/dodge/walk sideways to avoid it. Seriously you dont even need to dodge it. Assassin classes can just walk to the left and avoid it.

Oh damn. That's tragic. They might as well have left it in until they were ready to give him his rework. Doing it like this sh/ts on an already weak as hell character. But Conq with his already non-punishable shield bash recovery gets an indirect buff by nerfing the entire roster's dodge recovery speed.

That's.... fair...?

Whatever they did to him it was comical last night when on two separate occasions I was standing right in front of Shugo, not even 3 yards away and he would miss his love hug. Not just that, but I didn't even try to move or attack him. I was simply too slow to react yet he missed and lost a LOT of his health.

My advice to Shugo players. I get you, I really do. But go and play with Centurion or Shaman. Developers obviously don't mind high punishing type of heroes when they are not heavy or even vanguard.

Well he’s going to keep getting nerfs until he’s unplayable.

Then once no one plays him anymore, the devs hit the delete button and add another random non-samurai specific class to the samurai faction. Or a peasant, whatever works.

[Vakris_One]

No, they'll rework him at some point. But burning him down to the ground like this until they do is not reasonable.

Both Shaman and Highlander can grab and bite through hyper armour respectively for example. So why is only Shugoki being nerfed if this really is just a "bug fix"? Either "bug fix" all characters equally or don't "bug fix" them at all.

No they sh/ts on the people who have played this broken game ever since the sh/t beginning. I literally bought this game three times 2 for my friend to join in... They don't play it. They don't like it and they just don't know why. They would rather play overwatch. I don't blame them. This game is more frustrating then it needs to be.

Sorry if it seems like I'm trolling but this really pissed me off. I've tried the demons embrase on people not moving with no ha and he misses it. F/cking worthless. Shug has no upside to him now.
