Raider Rework Busted | Forums

They do back away but I dont let them. I always try to keep super close to them and dodge only if their HA kicks in.

Again, good Warden can space you and you can do literally nothing with it, there are characters who can counter spacing, but very few of them. He can just run away or roll, and also SB after backdodge, he can gain a distance in a moment and immediately attack without risk to be interrupted. If your tricks like "interrupt with light" and "keep super close" would really work and be a panacea on high level Warden wouldn't be S-Tier since season 7.

I understand Ubisoft, you are trying to answer the prayers of your community, you are attempting to fix the balance of the cast. But how is this balance? This is even worse than when Centurion was OP. We don't need this, okay Ubisoft?
I wanted to quit when you buffed the Wu Lin, but now I adapted, but now I really want to quit
I get why you did it to Lawbringer, but why Raider? Why? And let's just pretend he needed the rework, but this was not necessary: damage buff, fast attacks, stunning tap from combos is unreactable, now he can soft feint zone into gb, so you're forced to guess. I get it, some characters have this and it's fine. But it's not just the gb you gotta watch out for, he can do a stunning tap as well, which is unreactable if you're blinded, and he can repeat it if he wants to, then chain into lights + zone + gb/tap and so on

He broke the game, I didn't expect this, reworking something does not mean it has to be Godly, it means it has to be viable

The best advice I can give you, dear developers, is DON'T rework characters one by one, if you're gonna rework someone that's weak, you have to take into consideration EVERYONE that is weak. I don't want to play Raider, I'm not a meta slave. I don't want to be forced to play something just as broken.
What about Centurion, Tiandi, Shinobi, Peacekeeper? Trying to beat a Raider in a 1v1 with CENTURION feels impossible now, his kit is too overwhelming, fast and does way more damage than Centuron's, and still no one can open their eyes and realize the great mistake that was done here, Raider needed a buff, that's it. Not a rework.
The only character that is in desperate need of a rework is Centurion

FEEDBACK ON RAIDER:

* Make his stunning tap a tad slower if it's used inside a chain
* Stunning tap should blind only if it's thrown from neutral, because while getting pressured by his zone, you have to watch out for the zone, stunning tap and the gb all the while being BLIND
* He should be able to do a stunning tap on gb
* Top Heavy should blind

TL;DR: Raider is overloaded with mechanics that are almost impossible to outplay depending on character and you have to rely on luck while playing against one, this should be changed as I listed above, taking into consideration that characters inferior to him CANNOT win against him

I don't get why people want to bring raider down to peacekeeper level,shouldn't it be the opposite?

Raider is unstoppable right now.

He grabs you with a large arc and range so 4v4 is sorted.

HA UB dodge tap etc mostly ridiculous damage. 1v1 no issues.

Stun tap is extremely hard to react on console. The issue is from that he does damage takes your stamina and stuns you. I don't know if it anything gets better than that? Instant kill? And it's such a cheesy move with crazy reward. Also his light attack animations are very subtle it's very hard to see as it is and stun on top no way.

Every game I play I see raiders coming in top. We still don't have single pick so if you have 2 raiders like some other certain heroes forget about winning.
