after a deep analysis I think Option selects must go, devs | Forums

I would also address dodge attacks and superior block light openers, but it would be a very good first step.

I might be lazy, but I just don't want to put in as much effort to always to think which optionselect should I beat. The defender still gets in more damage for a good guess than the attacker.

Ik bdur. I'm talking about parries. Not straight up dodge attacks, etc

To further "clarify" here since the person you're quoting here is wrong if they do input sanitization ALL forms of option selects that include multiple inputs would be effected. The only ones that don't would be conq's superior block heavies (as his zone is multiple input.) BP's dodge/flip OS would be effected as well as nobushi's back light OS since that's a backwards zone input.

The only way for the devs to target OS's that can parry and those alone would be to make parrying as an action have the lowest priority compared to every other action in the game. We don't know what they're going to do yet. So it's a bit premature to make any sort of speculation as fact. Input sanitization is what is rumored. But there's been nothing else to back that up or other potential options.

BP's dodge/flip OS affected? well that´s good news for me, I found recently how absurd he can be against some characters.

Unbelievable that it's been allowed to exist this long.

Yes it would be effected. Because you're dodging and flipping with the same input via binding. Can do without binding but it's much harder imo.

I never said "input sanitization", so you'll forgive me for asking how exactly I am wrong?

If "cleansing" is the word you're stuck on, then I'd have to guess this comment is nothing more than a petty dig at me.

I explained twice that they are addressing OS's that also act as parries. Whatever word is used to describe the way they go about it, that's all I actually stated.

Seeing as how I only said that after seeing confirmation about it from the devs, again, how was I wrong?
