    Simple Aramusha Fix

    So from my research on real life twin sword martial arts and the problems of the Aramusha hero and weak heroes in general, I have come to the conclusion that the introduction of 2 crucial features should get Aramusha out of B tier, depending on their implementation, without changing anything in his current kit.

    - Superior Block Lights
    Give lights superior block, like Valkyrie's. As you swing with one sword, it blocks the incoming attack and you follow up with the second.
    This would give him an additional, elegant and authentic ability, since about half of his kit is currently locked behind Blade Blockade.

    - Feintable Unblockable
    Give him some sort of feintable unblockable attack.
    One of the main problem with heroes that are considered too weak is the lack of an opener such as this one.



    Any constructive criticism or advice is welcome.

    I would go a step further and say that his blade blockade needs a buff too. It can't be held, guarantees low damage for a gb risk, and while it has more options, the side heavy is a useless one. It's damage should be buffed to 50 at least, and succesful blockades should drain high stamina. Maybe let it be held like other fullblocks.

    Yes I think everyone can agree that it needs a buff or rework.
    But I wanted to propose as few changes as possible to make him viable again ASAP. He would not be entirely "fixed" yet.

    I think that most like his kit behind the blade blockade. So a soft way of opening the kit would be to let him also have access to it on standard parries as well. Either that or let his blockade actually function as a parry and be able to stop unblockables.

    But both solutions would mess with the BB and keep it useless at the same time. Blocking unblockables wouldn't work because people feint those a lot, getting a free GB off of a Musha using BB.
