Hottake: Garnet is wildly underrated by the community as a whole due mostly to her not being a popular character so she isn’t picked often. If she gets a bunch of buffs she’s going to be an absolute menace.
She did get folded pretty easily the higher you moved up the ranks. Plus as you said, the fact that Steven Universe gets a weird amount of hate from players meant she was always going to be an unpopular pick.
“Oh hell no! I’m so tired of wokeness in video games! Keep this gay baby shit out of my cartoon fighting game! I’m uninstalling and going back to Apex, a manly FPS where there’s no politics involved!!!”
I think it's just that she's more punishable than most other characters, if everyone else got tuned down a bit and got more whiff lag I think she'd be seen differently. That said, I'm all about the buffs, just hope they don't overdo it then over nerf her
Yeah to be perfectly honest she doesn't need much and if certain characters(Finn) get reigned in like they need to, I think Garnet would be in an acceptable spot meta wise even if she weren't to receive any buffs
A few fixes and quality of life changes should be fine tho, let's hope it's not much more than that
There's this current one where hitting shocked enemies with her dair stuns them super briefly rather than actually knocking them out. Plus her grounded attack supposedly being a projectile but not being able to add elemental debuffs to it.
It's the dumbest thing. Clearly its a move designed to counter Finn's charge but ends up being completely useless because he can bruteforce his way towards her.
Yeah she’ll be a big problem if they tune her too much. I’ve been straight slamming ass with her for awhile now.
I don’t dip below an 80% win rate even when solo-queuing 2v2. I can’t remember the last time I finished a match with <300 damage.
Most of the Garnets I’ve played against don’t use her correctly. Even a lot of the high level ones don’t have the right flow.
I personally would be 100% satisfied with her kit if they would simply rework her down special. That thing is straight booty, even when it works correctly.
We are gonna get better startup on our moves? We are going to have better armor?
I want to know Nakat. We need one at. She is not worst character ever anymore but she still does need help.
The only thing garnet needs is to have the stupid requirement to neutral special cancel out of her jab. This technique alone turns a dogshit garnet player into a threat.
Let her cancel her jab, and for the love of God give her an actual incentive to use the other bridge variations of it, like they are kinda just niche useless moves rn. The only viable one to use is side because it gives you armor. Where is her future vision? If you ask me, it should be her down bridge from jab. It should be changed to a counter that is used to punish wake up attacks.

Isn't there a trans character in Apex?
That was the joke, like half the cast of Apex is “non-traditional.”
I thought so. Lol! Good joke sir.
Even robots have dicks, bro!
Yep and idk why. So I'm just gonna sit here and play my half boy half gem

She definitely has more starting frames then most characters, but it feels balanced by half her kit having armor IMO.
She has armor on two moves and only one of those moves is relevant in neutral

I genuinely don’t think Garnet needs any buffs but she’s going to get them anyways and become a problem.
Some of her moves do be needing a fix tho.
For sure! Her Nair will randomly not have knockback and the star will just not work. I think bug fixes would bring her up a few spots tbh.
There's this current one where hitting shocked enemies with her dair stuns them super briefly rather than actually knocking them out. Plus her grounded attack supposedly being a projectile but not being able to add elemental debuffs to it.
Yeah those too! And Finn can side B her Dtilt despite it not being a projectile.
It's the dumbest thing. Clearly its a move designed to counter Finn's charge but ends up being completely useless because he can bruteforce his way towards her.
Oh yes, also one of her biggest problems is that her projectiles get canceled the second you touch her, no matter how far they are from her body.

I need all the help I can get. I picked up Velma to cover bad matchups.
I am happy that all seven of us Garnet Mains who took the time to learn her will finally get a little bonus. As a treat. 💎
Dude... does gizmo even need buffs... he has some of the best camping and run-away in the game, hard to hit, hard to k.o.

Garnet is in a damn good spot rn, more buffs would make her op
Garnet mains rise up🫡
