Maybe we can sticky this? Just a suggestion. I just hope this doesn't become a 'I hate this matchup and so and so character should be buffed to counter so and so' because threads like that tend to snowball into something else.
So what characters do you guys think require buffs and nerfs?
I've heard a few rumblings that Billy may be broken but I'm going to have to disagree. I think his pokes can be a problem for some of the cast, but he often can't link into something big (Hyper Drive or Upkicks corner combo) unless he's almost right next to you. His corner combos are good but require at least 3-4 bars (without going into Hyper Drive) to do about 600-700 damage, and those combos are hard to do so it's not like Joey from down the street can come over and pick him and wreck shit. Him doing about 400-500 damage with 2 bars and 1-2 DC is about on par with most of the cast.
So I think that's the elephant in the room. Feel free to disagree though.
Terry. He's good, but not good enough. Only changes I would suggest: Regular Power Gyser comes out faster, for an AA super it's too slow for it's own good. Have his Neomax do full damage in corner. And I think he should be able to link Crack Shoot and Burn Knuckle off of Toward A.
Ryo. Just more damage. Very unlikely that SNKP would go to the trouble of animating his jumping karate chop -which is something he really needs - but to make up for that I would suggest a slight damage boost. His use of Parries makes him radically unique like Clark in that he has a mechanic that no other character has. But there's not much he can do without tapping into EX Super. Otherwise he'll be doing 200 damage on average, not much of a threat. Also, if they could adjust the input for his Zanretsuken, I don't know if it's just me but I can rarely get that move out and instead I often get his projectile super out.
I can't think of any terribly broken characters and I don't main Leona so I can't give much input for her. She seems to occupy a niche and does okay.
