    Possible shaolin tweak to make him better

    Shaolin is pretty mediocre in the current state of the game. Getting into Qi stance requires you to wiff an attack since everything he throws is reactable (at least on PC).

    -make his opening light attacks enhanced.
    >this pretty much makes his Qi stance more accessible and makes playing against him more intimidating

    I’m sure you can already faint his forward dodge heavy

    Like the idea. Not the biggest fan of that character, yet every time i Play against them it becomes obvious how that would help them. Having to intentionally whiff an attack is bollocks. I support this Change.

    Oh man, a good Shaolin already wrecks me, I can't react to half the stuff he already has on ps4.

    Yeah, I'm on PC but tend to get overwhelmed by the speed as well. I don't think Shaolin is regarded as super oppressive by many people though.

    If this were to happen, the side lites should be enhanced. The top lite however should still bounce off unless they make it 500ms as well.

    Then it should not be enhanced.

    We'll have to agree to disagree, anyone with a neutral 400ms attack definitely should not have the enhanced lite property, especially one that can go into a 50/50. 500ms on the other hand is acceptable. So the side lites should definitely have it for sure.

    By that logic then LB's top light should be enhanced as well.

    It wouldn't really matter if lbs was enhanced or not, I believe it is actually because it doesn't bounce off. If I'm not mistaken It doesn't lead into anything right?
