Black Prior is being nerfed PSA | Forums

[rottmeister]

Since his bash seemingly didn't get the nerf it was going to get not as much as it would have. The substantial change he received prevents him from being able to leave bullwark on reaction to a feint and CGB a GB attempt. Something you probably don't experience yourself but was a big deal in high level play. Even if/when he receives a bash nerf he's still going to be strong. Just less safe. Which is more than acceptable considering he has one of the most oppressive mix ups in the game.

Sorry, don't know how to multi-quote so I'm just indicating it in your text.

1) The bash was untouched? That sucks :/

2) This change indeed was necessary imo. It wasn't really exclusive to high level play, I mean I did it and other fairly low repped BP's did so too. Granted it didn't work everytime because I usually don't play characters with full block so I'm not 100% familiar with them.

From testing it seems so yes. It seems to give the same numbers it had pre patch. Most likely scenario is the devs just forgot to slip in the change with the update. We did get a confirm that Jawbreaker was referring to his bash.
