    Gryphon

    I've just recently got the chance to play with gryphon after the nerf and it's suffice to say that i'm deeply dissapointed with him. First of all, all of his combos do revolve around his kick and makes him so much predictable for higher levels by reason of having no offence other than his kick. The only thing i do have in my mind that's good about him is his dodge attack which is in a quite odd position as it was before because i remember we would get infuriated by how he and kensei had such good dodge attacks but now as things are going on this move is becoming more prevalent than ever and losing it's account. In respect of this bash attack, they either should have kept his speed and make it vulnerable to gb or shouldn't have touched at it at all. The last thing i would like to point out is that i felt that he was lacking offence while playing with him and needs i really don't know maybe an unblockable on his third heavy would work out. I think that gryphon should not have been nerfed at all and should have gotten a couple of buffs instead.

    Gryphon shouldn't have been nerfed at all, but buffed instead?

    So basically you want Gryphon to make the game easier for you.

    Either that or you're just so terrible that even Gryphon doesn't feel strong to you.

    He is still overtuned, dude. Good enough to stop the mass complaints but still overtuned. The nerfs were necessary and if they had buffed him instead, no one would be playing right now. He was absolutely broken before and was THE ez mode hero at launch.

    Gryphon is fine. My god.

    None of your poor assumptions has nothing to do with why i made this thread.

    I'm simply reminding you that you just can/may talk like a normal/decent person as to why gryphon should have been nerfed rather than being buffed in your opinion.

    In a case where people will still talk the the way you talk, i might as well just close the thread.

    You're right. You should just close this thread.

    Don't tease the mob. They get wild and sensitive when you say things about Gryphon.

    Gryphon is perfectly fine. At best he needs chain off whiffed bash.

    Gryphon is good. I think if you mix a little.. everybody expects the kick. Period.

    But if you dont try light-heavy feint to GB or light, you come predictable with the undodgeable heavy too.

    These mix ups plus the bash option plus the dodge heavy, you can create doubts...and creating doubts in your enemy, its not that easy to defend against Gryphon.

    And out of nowhere, when no one long expect the kick...try it.

    You ll see hes strong.

    I think you should be a worst player ever... gryffon its the one most break character. Even a child can won a match with him. Try hitokiri is the only one better than him.

    I feel gryphon is lacking a good moveset, I personally find him very boring to use. I agree with his nerf because on release he was pretty much unreactable, but I think he should have more added to his moveset to make him fun to use and less predictable.

    Also have to say, loving the new character Kyoshin, very fun to use and feels pretty viable and not overpowered, devs done a good job with this one.
