Is there an ETA on the Shugoki Buff/Rework? | Forums

[Neon_WiDoW]

They have been teasing this for awhile now.
But every time they mention him they just go silence for weeks/months. Has there been any confirmation that hes getting a major buff before marching fire?

[TSCDescon]

Nope.

They'll probably give him 300ms lights with guaranteed DE on hit or something.

Soon

Pray for Shugoki.

Either he'll become the best heavy yet or they just give him a minor tweak and call it a day, burying him once and for all.

I don't want a Val rework with him. He just needs touch up work IMHO. My guess is that they will completely get rid of his HA and get rid of the one shot kill. They will speed him up and add combos that no one cares about. They will gut shugoki and make him more aggressive like they did with Val. They will give him a bump in health (that he would have had anyways without the HA down damage) and damage.... Essentially they will make him into large, slow cross between a Berzerker and warlord..again without continuous HA reset.

I disagree. He needs a complete overhaul ground up.

He suppose to be this "Demon Guardian" (with a bit of Sumo). Nothing in his kit represents that kind of theme. "Demon's Embrace?" "Charge of the Oni?" Yeah, they have the word "demon" in it, but it does not represent a "DEMON GUARDIAN". Just a fat jolly fat man that wants to hug you 24/7.

OK I would agree if they made him a boss fight I'd be happy with a rework but they won't. What they will do is make I'm more aggressive which goes against the Guardian nature in our scenerios. I have no issue with devs making shug into the Dev art musclebound Guardian demon you want... But the key word is Guardian.
What they could do is make him immune to bashes and unblockable. If they did that he would be a true tank and I'd trade the HA for that.
What I mean to say is if they are getting rid of constant HA reset and making him more aggressive with a larger Heath pool I would trade HA for immunity constant to bash and unblockables.

Or they give him a bash that instantly makes him S Tier. Just like all the others...

I just wish they would give him the kensei treatment. But that doesn't seem to be the route they are taking anymore with reworks.

Yes exactly. Everything thing in this game is becoming bash and spam lights.
