    If OS's get removed (or "sanitized") then I'm going to be a GM right after.

    Learning about OS's I've realized that's the main problem with high level duels. I have never even used the zone OS, let alone the others, and I still managed to claw my way up to Diamond 5 ranked and I have fought a great many of the GMs too. I rarely win against them but they are constantly using OS's so we will see once they've been addressed.

    I use the zones, and a bit too much. I sometimes fail oos parries because I instinctively press the zone. It really, really hurt me on the longrun when I reached a level where people use it often.

    If they make the zone os go though, I would really like them to be standardized to ~20 stamina cost. It would really improve many characters to have a zone that does not put them out of stamina after a few attacks.

    Well both characters should still have better zones. Raider's is kinda decent. But it's stamina cost and the fact that it's FD on hit is balls.

    Lol Jondaliner put a video up today that just echoes my entire opinion of the game currently.

    I was a little disappointed with freeze saying that zone OS's are arguably good for the game. Each to their own, I suppose.

    Just for a Testing Ground, I would really love to see how the game would work if there would be no optionselects. That would main that feint into gb would beat all parry attempts, and the only remaining punishes (dodge attacks, superior lights) would be punished very hard. That would really reform the roster's viabilty (conq would fall down, while PK and Shaman might be raised even higher. Probably it would make the non bashy characters useful as well).

    I hope so. The idea of tweaking option selects has me intrigued. I am still avoiding the game for now, mostly because it seems to trigger my newly discovered ADHD, but I am still watching for improvements to the game.

    I also now know that my more extreme opinions when my emotions run hot are almost exclusively influenced by my ADHD. Hopefully now I will be able to catch it before letting myself get too emotional.

    Anyways, very interested in when an option select TG will happen?
    We haven't released a timetable just yet. What we've revealed aside from Shugoki is that we'll be testing Option Selects. We'll be sure to let everyone know when the next TG is ready when the team has everything in place!
