Your Only Move Is HUSTLE

Ryomen Sukuna, The King Of Curses

Could be controversial for people who like playing this character (balancing)
I think giving him more combo damage would do him nice, as it stands now, I havent hit a single black flash, so in combos where I hit 20-30, I do basically no damage (compared to some other characters) and the standard is curse hit, into chase mechanic, into cursed hit, into chase mechanic. I think thats because he lacks damage in other regions right? why stack combo if thats going to reduce your damage when you can move spam 2 easy good moves. He needs more incentive to not use the same moves. I also think (said this in a comment) that hopefully his domain isn't permanent, that could be lore wise for a fight in this time frame, but it's not practical game wise. forces opponent to lose to such an easy win condition as chanting three times because "Approach" can be flipped and send you to the other side of the map, granting you 9 times out of 10 the chant time required. I only have a few games on him tho with some solo matching. I'm using the older sukuna mod as a reference as well as how he mirror matches with himself, and the mirror match is really just based on luck. Making a move un-blockable if you black flash isn't a very gameplay friendly mechanic as it not only removes the reward of guessing which moves the attacker is going to use, but makes the game almost a gamble as to if you can even use any moves at all, which personally, shouldn't be a thing. I think that at the very least, in a game about witts, you should always be able to have done something, especially something as rewarding as predicting a move to parry, that feels like a fundamental thing. The format of my discussion is kind of all over the place but hopefully evreyone is still willing to talk about this.:steamdeadpan:

i have not buffed the dmg because people is already complaining the character is too op, so that would just make it even worse. about the curse energy hit spam yeah, you're right, i'm also fixing the guard breakers (removing it from some moves) and working on ways to incentivice the player to use quickslashes mid combo instead of just spamming the cu punch hoping it to work, i'm removing the chants chance increase to make the player choose a way to play, world slashes, kamutoke or black flashes
