His side special was his worst move and I guess we all wanted a diffrent move for it.
So thank you for that.
But does the change come with a nerf for his survival, when he was already falling behind?
Weight: 100 > 95
Forward Air now has diminishing returns on its max fall speed during the active windows, losing 25% of its effectiveness with each use, with a minimum value of 50% effectiveness.
Puddle is now removed when Orcane is pummeled.
I disagree with all that. I think the nerfs makes sense. Weight is just to keep his improved recovery in check, the Forward Air is just good game design to prevent stalling (which is NEVER a good feeling for a platform fighter cough cough Sonic) and Puddle finally having some counterplay is a needed addition imo. It was so weird that every character has mostly some counterplay built into their elemental gimmicks and Orcane was just immune to that.
