How often do you see a player asking for their own main to be nerfed?

Seriously. Kensei side dodge heavy is WAY TOO SAFE. I can't stand playing against other Kensei's and having them completely avoid my stupidly wide *** side heavy swings with nothing but a dodge attack. I just got beaten by a newb Kensei who just dodges and counters with that one move and I'm sitting here going "how are my side heavies missing? They are literally passing through the opponents body and he has passed the I frames point. Im literally just missing. It doesn't make any sense. Fix this stupid ****.

Read the last 3 pages maybe. It is already detailed why it is absurdly strong.

Yeahhhhhhh they are easy to raw parry when the opponent literally spams it, but trust me. As a Kensei main, yes it is incredibly safe. I have 54 reps on my Kensei and it's far too safe. I have avoided plenty of things I shouldn't be able to with it. It's silly.

Edit:

You know this isn't reddit, right?

The Dodge in itself is ok but it should have more risk, make it a light attack so you get a light party punish off it. Even if you fint and then parry the dodge attack, all you get is a light attack damage hit for it.

Also agree that 3 light chains are too good. Almost impossible to stop.

I would be ok with removal of HA on his light finisher and making the side dodge heavy a little riskier.

The problem with it is the I frames, much like other characters with dodge attacks. They need to take away the I frames. If an attack hits you, then it hits you. Should be as simple as that.

I have no problems with iframes. But there should be a decent amount and realism of proper physics. So if a weapon passes through an opponent it should hit them instead of passing through.

Kensei is in the perfect spot. He's balanced in my opinion.

Dude, the Kensei is not balanced, he is a hero of S tier.

If your having problems with countering the dodge attack, then feint, then parry. It's not hard.

Kensei's heavies are the slowest too, if they nerfed him more, there would be a bigger backlash then their already are. They need to nerf more nerf-worthy characters like the character who has hyperarmor on all of his attacks (Highlander), or the character who has the strongest attacks and fastest lights (Gryphon).

If anything they should make Kensei even better, because as I said, his moves are slow and easily interpretted.

Playing against Kensei, just play mind games and bait him to do his heavies or dodge attacks.

I made this post and I am a Kensei main. I was asking for his dodge attack to get nerfed because it's so easy to abuse. I know. I do it all the time.

That being said, this post was also created in October of 2020, 9 months ago. You're a little late to the show. Lol
