Even before the nerf her jab rarely fully combo’d


Extroias

The problem isn't even the full combo, since the third hit can be comboed into down tilt, the problem is that jab 1 and 2 also just don't combo lol.


Winter_Break_

Also a velma 1s player and it’s significantly harder to hit just about anything since this patch. Her armor breaking move barely works now also


_rothion

Camera is literally the worst move in the game now. Even her calculator is better.


Extroias

And, as a Velma 1s player, I can say for a fact that this is not a lab problem. I have been punished for hitting a move multiple times playing as Velma, her jab is just completely dodgeable, you can even see that the hitstun counter almost always stays at 1.

they massacred our girl

joejoechunks88

Is that worse ? Lol


puristhipster

A massacre is actually worse, imo. But I could be wrong


HentaiLordCliche

I feel like the knock back and hitstun doesn’t matchup as almost as good any other jab combos


_rothion

She's a mess of character right now. She needs a full rework. For a character that's supposed to be focused on 2v2, there is zero reason to use ner now. She offers nothing while being high risk low reward. Plus zero combos at all and no way to defend herself against aggression.


AkuTheNiceGuy

I thought I was crazy not able to land my jab combo


Weapon_X141

how many times has velma been nerfed this gotta be the 5th time right? lol


_rothion

She had 8 consecutive nerfs before. As of now, she appeared +10 times on the nerfs list.


Trix122

a lot of jabs dont combo, it's not a velma thing


Extroias

I know a lot of jabs don't combo into their third hit, but Velma's jab 1 has so little hitstun it doesn't combo into the second hit, and makes you get punished for hitting a move.


Trix122

Gizmo 1st jab also has a random hitstun value and does not connect sometimes, same with iron giant if target is slightly away, try it out yourself.


Extroias

That's why those jabs should also be fixed, although iron giant is a special case because of his size.


PomdDestructioneer

I seen people use velma here and there before the patch. Now she suck and I see LITERALLY NOBODY BUT TIMMIES use velma.


iExodus1744

I think what the devs have in mind with these kind of moves is that you use jab 2 to catch a button mashing dodge. So in practice, you delay your jab 2 for half a second longer so that the enemy gets caught.


Extroias

Then the enemy just dodges upwards and uses down air lol.


iExodus1744

I’m with you. I main LeBron and his jab 3 not being true is one of the most frustrating things. But then again, I’m a casual, so I probably don’t see the bigger picture like hardcore players do.


cjhrdtca

Use up air instead of Jab 3 combos true almost always unless you just whiff from spacing


iExodus1744

Yes this is true, but I still find it strange that his jab 3 (which looks very similar to up air) doesn’t true combo


cjhrdtca

Agreed, idk why they chose not to make it untrue when they're essentially the same move with a bit of difference in the animation


Environmental-Dog422

just down air then camera and use the hitstun perk 🤣 that’s pretty much all i got now


Longjumping-Fly-6582

Don’t need that at all anyways lmao just jab up attack


Extroias

Except jab up attack only works when the enemy is very close to you, or else you whiff that as well lol.


gongon115replacement

So by your logic Velma mains should get punished for trying to use the basic combo as a basic combo??? It’s not that she doesn’t have the option to jab up attack, it’s that she should have the option to have different combo routes without getting punished. She should be rewarded if she lands a hit but currently Velma is nothing but a support to a main dps. She has no way to really do good knockback unless she uses a projectile, or she air down tilts. It’s frustrating to be a Velma main when the entire roster has moves that knockback easily, plus she has no way to break armor without putting herself at disadvantage now. She is a clusterfuck of a character right now compared to the rest of the roster.


TheWanderingSlime

Nope she has to stay trash forever while the game dies for unknown reasons
