    The year is 20R#. Everyone plays Asuka at TAS levels of perfection. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on draw rng. The mashing draw card metagame has evolved to ridiculous levels due to it being the only remaining factor to decide matches. Humanity has reached its pinnacle. The low tier peasants are living in poverty. It seems nothing can stop the great leader of 20R#, Masaya "Gobou" Shiratori and his army, the Asuka wizards who live in great shadow monasteries where they levitate while TASing Asuka with one hand, and winning tournaments with the other. The tournament metagame has gotten to this point where everything is played out to theoretical perfection, so tournament goers draw the best cards as fast as they can, and that’s the game.

    They really nailed the Yugioh aesthetic when designing Asuka's gameplay. Yugioh at its core is a game about setting up unbeatable negate board minefields and playing solitaire with no interaction whatsoever, which is exactly what Asuka does. The caveat of course being, just like in regular Yugioh, that you don't want to misplay or drop combos too much.

    While I do like to see high level Asuka steamrolling through the competition, I can see that the win condition is way to easy to get. Obviously you should be rewarded for learning such a high execution character but maybe tone down the strength and/or duration of the mana regen and bookmark refresh cards, perhaps also shorten the duration of his card-picking super so its not as easy to just cycle through what he needs to win

    @SuwakoMoriya Рік тому +3

    You mention what could Nago or Pot do against him but you'd be surprised, characters with big normals can deal with the cubes a lot better since the cubes do lose to normals or even other projectiles, it forces Asuka to either try to use the cubes from different angles with the help of the rods or to forego using the cubes, and instead rely on his non-interactuable spells like the guard break lasers, the ground low or the overhead ball.
    People will also start to figure out counterplay to his setups, I for one know that as Pot you can f.S 2H slidehead to punish him trying to setup the 2-wave spell or trying to use the 5-cube barrage for example, Nago can f.S / 2H 236S as well.
    Something I noticed from this Arc Revo is that no one was hitting the cubes with normals or specials, everyone was either blocking, jumping or trying to go under, which gave Gobou a lot of leeway in just throwing cubes and setting up. I can bet that for next time, people won't be knowledge checked by the cubes as easily and will start to actually challenge them in neutral.

Compare it to Happy Chaos where pretty much anyone can just pick the guy up and produce results.

    balancing with difficulty is like balancing with low HP.
    it kinda works, but not really.
    edit: yeah, auto import not having a hard limit is not okay lol

    My first thought when they first released Asuka is that this guy's a BlazBlue character. Mechanically kinda like Nine, but somehow crazier, and in practice he's like a Carl/Arakune type 1-player-game character.

    Sacrifice health for mana is such a strong mecanic, they should nerf or even remove it. And also, make the teleport startup a little bit slower maybe?

    I was watching this live and I felt mad for Mocchi. The of control Asuka gets when he sets up is pretty obscene and this was against one of the best Sol Players in the world who is making use of every tool in the Sol Kit(and he has all of them except a teleport). Imagine what any of the less blessed characters have to go through for this match-up.

    If they nerf Asuka I hope they just make it so that his card selection super only let's you pick one card or costs 100 meter or you can only use it once per round or something appropriate. I'm a scrub and wanna learn this character and don't want him getting nerfed cus of one top tier player xD

    Asuka us a really interesting character ti nerf ir buff because all they have to do is change how many of a given card are in which test case or like move cards from one test case to another. Like nerfing gobou's asuka would be as simple as taking cards like the 5 cubes that count down and replace them with a less useful one like the mana regen one or something or even keep it an attack and have it be the lightning card
    Arcsys doesn't seem to care about nerfing or buffing though as much as they care about making sure every move actually gets used (at least according to what they say in patch notes) so they might buff the other test cases or give asuka a bonus for switching between test cases. Maybe they can get stale or something and his mana will start draining. Or maybe even simpler than that. Maybe just make it so that when e runs out of cards in a test case there's a cooldown before it reshuffles. Or even a recovery. Like he has to use change test case to refill. Doing that could be simple and if you need to nerf him even more, you can just increase recovery frames on change test case. Maybe just do that anyways

At least, you can play more with your mobility in BB and the unique stuff u can do. Idk this kind of mage type character should be about adapting to the right spell at the right scenario. Most likely they gonna change the auto import spell I guess.
