changedBalanceNeutral Light attacks are generally very quick with good hitbox coverage, as well as having solid damage. They have also seen great use when contesting strings, primarily when performed out of a neutral / spot dodge after being struck. While their utility and interactions can be meaningful for the mind-games involved in a match, they are currently a bit too rewarding. We have reduced the damage on most of these options while keeping their utility, which also places an emphasis on mixing in other attacks into your gameplay.

Balance

Neutral Light attacks are generally very quick with good hitbox coverage, as well as having solid damage. They have also seen great use when contesting strings, primarily when performed out of a neutral / spot dodge after being struck. While their utility and interactions can be meaningful for the mind-games involved in a match, they are currently a bit too rewarding. We have reduced the damage on most of these options while keeping their utility, which also places an emphasis on mixing in other attacks into your gameplay.

The Unarmed Neutral Light has received a moderate decrease in damage.

  • Unarmed Neutral LightDecreased Damage from 18 to 16.

Sword

The Sword has not only received a moderate decrease in damage to its Neutral Light attack, but also some changes to its Side Light. We have decreased the damage and increased the Recovery Time on the Side Light due to its strong initial travel speed.

The Katar Neutral Light has received a minor decrease in damage, but still remains one of the more damaging individual attacks in the Katar kit.

  • Katar Neutral LightDecreased Damage from 16 to 15.

Blasters

The Blasters have received a minor decrease in damage to its Neutral Light. This attack still remains one of the most damaging Neutral Lights in the game due to its overall commitment, dead-zone near the user, and low force.

  • Blasters Neutral LightDecreased Damage from 24 to 23.

Spear

Spear Neutral Light has received a moderate decrease in damage as it is an incredibly quick and useful tool for this lengthy weapon.

  • Spear Neutral LightDecreased Damage from 19 to 17.
