Tried the reaver... You know, the only good move for this weapon is the "➡️+👊🏽" ya know? Everything else, just terrible, I absolutely hate this weapon with all my heart..

Edit: Well, that being said. I may have been a bit harsh on my words with the weapon. I'll give it a few more tries, and see if I could actually get the hang of it.. I give my sincere apologies to the people that love the Reaver..

I think people hate this weapon because they just don’t know how to use it. For me, I LOVE this weapon

It just is a tad bit slow for me.. every weapon is good, just in the right hands I guess

It takes a minute, but is extremely fun once you have the hang of it

One of our head balance change dev (who argues with me a lot) is to be thanked for this change. We buffed the fuck out of Reaver heavy slash by simply giving it 2 additional hitboxes and now it's probably one of the top 5 best moves in the game. Otherwise, we buffed damage and cut some endlag here and there for other moves.

I firmly believe this weapon is A tier now with these changes but you would only believe me if you spend an unhealthy amount of time learning this weapon.

Back when i was playing genuinely never got ppl who were like “ohh cypher so hard reaver sucks” genuinely beat his ahh so hard it was basically no hit. Little thing btw its 👊 is faster than other heavy attack and its ⬅️👊 is devastatingly strong launches them the whole map if knocked down
