    Hyper armor on lights

    Why is this still a thing? I figured with the removal of shugoki's HA lights they would remove HA on berserkers lights in the testing grounds. I mean, he literally has 300ms light feints why does he need HA on them? This should also apply to highlander and hitokiris lights, and hito shouldnt get hyper armor on his regular heavies either unless he charges it like before. All the rest of Hito's changes on the testing grounds are great but he didn't need the hyper armor back.

    Hyper Armour on Neutral Lights are only a issue, they are quite okay on combo lights.

    Removal of HA light attacks has been hugely requested by a large part of the community lately. I agree. Including my boy Kensei.

    Hito ABSOLUTELY needed HA back in some way. How they did it was perfect. The Armor only applies after letting a chained heavy fly. It isn't immediate like her opener heavy used to be.

    All Hyper Armor should be like this. Delayed startups so the attack can be interupted early, but too late and you eat a heavy.

    Hyper Armor is one thing in this game that could almost (key word) use a complete overhaul. Warlord HA is the best example in game along with Shugoki heavies and now Hito chained heavies. Raider armor, for example, starts WAY too early on his chained heavies.

    The heavy HA attacks were needed on Hitokiri because she couldn’t do her infinite chain without them.
