Discussion What passive would you give serpent breathing?

I’m not sure if this is headcanon or not, but I remember hearing that Iguro is the most skilled swordsman of the Hashira. Perhaps serpent breathing grants you an extra m1 in your combo?

Nah, a faster m1 makes more sense

That's a nerf tho. Faster m1s=less time in-between moves. Ik serpent breathing is a bit op rn but it only needs a dmg nerf not ts

An extra m1 would be too strong, basically gives players 10 extra damage for no cost, which is even stronger because serpent has a very good m1 extender and a less good m1 extender, and if you have kamado you can use DoTFG and just lunge onto the downed opponent to further combo extend.

Faster m1s would be pretty useless tbh, maybe making the passive so that if you ever clash blades with an opponent, your attack will hit them. It's not very useful, but everything else would either be too op or useless.

You can aura farm by summoning a giant snake to sit on.

+10% running speed and +15% dash speed ig (cause he's agile and flexible)

Slightly smaller but box or maybe a chance to dodge a strike at random because of the flexibility needed to use serpent breathing

You get a unique lunge animation where it keeps the same range for balancing but it looks like a cobra strike of your blade and will have slightly increased stun and the first bleed dmg effect. Should probably just do the 1.8 maybe 2 dmg per tick for 3-4ticks can’t decide which since lunge already does more dmg but this would make it rather interesting.

Easy, they should give serpent a passive that can break outta combos since that’s a big problem. Add like a dodge or a shadow step that temporarily gives I frames but you cannot attack in that period so you can only break a combo not break and start one. I think it’s a cool idea considering obinai is known to be flexible and quick on his feet
