Overall, a very good update, on paper, I really like the watching palor and the AI tag out( finally I can use my GI Jazz), but I also have some thought on a few things.
1. AI throw tech.
Well there go my Parasoul corner strat. Fun and humor aside, honestly, this will make some boss node on Rift unbeatable. There are so many tanky boss node that even with parasoul corner throw strat, I can barely made it in time to clear, couple with some AI tendency to just standing still to block, or dashing and cancel to block ( I'm looking at you squigly AI). The stall strat with stall fighter like last hope, AG, MnF will dominate the Rift cause no one can beat them in time (and bleed won't work on them either, fun time).
And Neurancer will be a nightmare if you can't corner her.
2. Shiny fighters
This will make some people salty as hell after months of saving and maxing out a diamond (very expensive and time consuming) just to pull a dupe but shiny. All that left is just to look prettier. It is a nice ideal but personally I want to scratch the halve exp and resource, it make people think they wasted a lot of time and money. Or if you can give back a bit of resource when you transfer a shiny, it would be a little bit better.
3. Fukua catalyst, Miasma and Fatigue on Rift
I afraid that this would be a little overpower. And honestly I don't understand the wording. You will get Fatigue if a) she hit you or b) you hitting her. If a) it will be fine and dandy, b) will be a problem, this make Silent Kill or Immunity is a must. But again its only 5% so it will have to wait a bit more.
And I believe the AI will use special move more often and Fukua have a special that gain Miasma? If so, all melee fighters are out of the picture if you want to kill her fast and end with BB ( Silent Kill, Parasoul, Squigly), the only option left is Peacock.
p/s: nevermind that, Silent Kill can erase buf.
4. Hackers and Cheaters problem ( unpopular opinion for some reason)
I know the devs said they will do something in roadmap 2020, but there are some prominent and I would say "popular" cheaters that have been reported on the forum for months without any actions. Some rise to the rank of diamond and freely reap the undeserve rewards, each weeks past meaning they're getting stronger and it will be to the points they don't need to cheat anymore because of all the diamond keys they have. Anyone with a weak collection and manage to climb the high rank know this the most (and some even delete the game because of this). I don't need the devs to take actions right away, but at least acknowledge the problem and inform us. Even in a game like Azur Lane, the devs are banning people who use cheat to climb the leader board for fun ( they don't get any rewards from the leader board).
I don't mean any things negative, just a bit of thought on it. And very hype for Fukua, I have a tons of theonites waiting for her.
