Let's talk about it.

One thing that might not be obvious is the buffs MK gets from the changes to rolls. According to this thread on reddit, MK is in the group of characters that benefited most from this change.

Also, I love that Tornado can grab ledge now.

Roll buffs are nice, Ledgehop Dair's potency was reduced somewhat. I love the fact we can grab out of tornado now. Not having to wait like 50 frames for the grab-box to appear is wonderful.

Fsmash ISA isn't a huge deal either since it already basically had no endlag. Not sure what to make of the Dash attack change.

Overall he's in a good place still and I will continue to hone my blade.

Is the dash attack change an aesthetic thing or does it affect the hitboxes

After playing 3.6 final MK for quite a bit, the only thing that has really affected me at all is the dair changes. I've been able to notice that the reverse hitbox is weaker, but even then it's not that big of a deal. I didn't even remember he got dash attack and f-smash changes until I read this again, they're really not noticeable.

I actually haven't tried the tornado ledgegrab yet, gotta remember to pull that off as a nice recovery mixup.

As for the roll changes, I'll have to check that out, because I don't even remember reading that in the notes, but if it's a buff for MK then I have to read about how to use it to its fullest potential lol

Overall I would say he isn't really changed that much, which I don't mind at all
