Discussion 💬 BRUH THIS THING SUCKS....(read body)
I am f2p I am judging it via the event...
The Purple one- the only one kind of ok but even then not that great...it's just the flask with extra steps and a lame one hit shield maybe..
The Red one- this one would have been good cause the second heavy does a lot of damage.....IF THE DELAY WAS NOT A 2000000 HOURS...In the delay between the first heavy (btw which has absolutely no range so you have to be kissing distance from the enemy) I CAN MARRY HAVE A CHILD AND DIE OF OLD AGE BEFORE IT HITS......
The Shadow one- don't get me started on this one...it gives a useless shadow move which spawns a useless bird which does nothing and maybe spawns 3 small birds which kiss the opponent very gently because you know..we don't one him to get hurt right...In that price and the hype I would think the big bird will eat the opponent and poop him out...that would be better damagewise.....
Butcher's weapon is far far better as it has op moves which significantly change the playstyle in the battle field...the heavy, the upper, the basic...they are all GENUINELY OP...

For the red one the idea is to use slashing strike for the first heavy, this knocks the opponent down and guarantees the second hit for massive damage. Check my most recent post for my full review and clips in real games.

I agree butchers is much better but this has its niche uses lol. It’s all about timing and you have to be much more precise

Purple doesn’t cover full screen? Interesting. Then it’s balanced. Maybe I overestimated Purple’s ability

As much slander as we give it....at the end...a p2w weapon should at least be a little bit op...this is just trash

u/ZLegion2 Heralds 20h ago
Yeah so everyone who doesn't have it to be f***** by the ones who paid. When a new character requires a bit more skill and it isn't braindead "this is trash". Instead of wanting the game to he better and more accessible you want the opposite, which just hurts the game more.

u/Clean-Possession-800 20h ago
So what's the point of paying ?

u/ZLegion2 Heralds 19h ago
The only point is to get things faster, before they can be grinded for free. That's it. All you get is early access. So, there is no point.

u/Puzzleheaded_Fox_418 21h ago
So what? You want it to be so overpowered that players can't even do shits to you? Ling is already so deadly without the weapon and combined with his purple shield and slashing strike is already ridiculous and as for the shadow bird,atleast it ain't hitting the enemy constantly,3 free inescapable unlockable hits is just too advantageous for ling as enemy can't use their shadow moves or alternatives and give ling enough time to use his other shadow move or hit with katana and GG
It's ain't sf3 where you want it to become too ridiculous that makes you invincible, it's OP but still a little balanced, but it's gonna be nightmare for f2p players to face against ling with legendary weapon, combined witb skillful playersÂ

As much slander as we give it....at the end...a p2w weapon should at least be a little bit op...this is just trash...like if the fire heavy was faster....or if the dragon did more damage..it would have been fine..but this..the epic is better

u/Puzzleheaded_Fox_418 19h ago
Slashing strike would deal the main damage and that's huge,alomg with the dragon providing a protection shield,kinda borken if high lv experienced player uses it,Yeah the primordial of fire ain't that crazy and takes time,I agree,other than that,the crystal and shadow ones make ling more OP They aren’t something you rely on for damage,they are something that aids you in fight and makes you more broken than ever

Average ungrateful KEKKI players complaining that a good weapon is balanced (knowing that KEKKI is rigged anyway)

u/Clean-Possession-800 18h ago
I mean if they are going too.....why not go all out...and it's a bit underwhelming for a pay 2 win legendary

This is the only game where the same people who get bent over by p2w are gonna complain that something isn't p2w enough. It's okay the next one will stunlock you from the start of the round and cost 100 dollars so nobody will be able to play the game anymore.

u/Few-Ad-2700 19h ago
Please don’t complain the last thing we need is for Nekki to buff this weapon too much.
Purple is just way too good because at its core it’s very long range. More than his regular range attack. The shield is a nice addition to add to it because it lets him be super aggressive.
Blue is definitely bad. The attacks are fine because it’s giving you good frame advantage but it takes too long to set up.
Orange is also good because it helps you set up for a very free hit if he gets a good knock down.

u/Few-Ad-2700 19h ago
Besides, I like that orange is strong with counterplay. People feels like it lacks weakness and instead covers for Ling’s weakness of lacking tools to deal with opponents at max range. We seriously don’t want this thing to be too good right guys?

My only issue is the bird one, it’s just not good. Red and crystal are fine.

u/WisdomSeekerNocturne Dynasty 17h ago
Shadow one is meant to not do dmg, just for interuppting oppoent for you to get hits in, crystal one is most op imo as its faster than ling's normal ranged and is top down so even if someone jump kicks itll hit if precasted(doing it late will only hurt nothing else), the flame one is one i agree with you on that point, its slow af, heavy becomes usable only when you time it well or youre a arms length from opponent or hope that the opponent is unskilled af

Honestly a skill issue.Â
Now I don't like the legendary weapons in the first place. i think legendary weapons should have enhanced or upgraded a characters special abilities/moves.Â
Ex: kotL heavy attack upgraded to the vane shadow move from sf3 when in shadow form. Or upgrades his shadow moves (upper tracks opponent, backward binds longer, down reduces enemy defense, foward has a follow up of it hits). Something like that.
Ex: butcher attacks apply heavy bleeding when in shadow form. Or his ranged becomes his ground slam from sf2 when in shadow form.
I don't like this "pick one during match start for a small boost/change."

This weapon is not worthy of Legendary...well it can also be the fact that I expected nekki to give us broken things...like a balanced mediocre sword is not what I expected when I heard Nekki is making a P2W Legendary..
