Steve, Brian and Law are not mid, I think everyone is hoping on Main Man's train of thoughts, and copy pastes his tier list which mostly depends of his mood. In that list Lars is A and Brian is B tier. The only one mid tier here is Jun. Doing good work with her is hard, but she has a lot of tools, she is not far behind.

Hi @PhiDX, sorry for change the subject of the video, but could you or anyone here explain why the numbers for the spring kick on block change so much? I saw a variation from -12 to -19, including the numbers in the middle of these. Thanks man, great content !!
@TheIcarusFalls
Ай бұрын
It depends on spacing. For example, if you get a knockdown and you're in your opponent's face and they spring kick, you'll have all day to launch them because it'll be like -20. But if they land further away from you and immediately spring kick and you block it, but it's toward the end of the hit because you're farther away, you'll have to do your simple -10 or -12 punish. In other words, blocking it in their face is a free launch because you've already recovered from block stun and they're still in the air, and blocking it further away is a smaller punish because they've already almost hit the ground when you recover from block stun. Hope this helped

I think this tournament showed that Dragunov is just fine, he does high damage as he shoud, but his biggest strength which is opression, can also be his downfall. Just look what happens if Drag gets too comfortable, he gets can canned. Steves b1, Laws d2 3, Yoshis flash. Theres plenty solutions to shut him down and make him scared, forcing him to eat more pressure himself. I really dont see a problem with him. Just like JDCR said, he is very strong, but in this game his weakness is that he HAS to go in.
