I feel the same way. People just want to wreck her and make her unusable.

It's like they don't want her to be able to combo at all

It doesn't even make sense because she was literally balanced around her combos. If she can't combo well, then there's no point in including her in the game.

This convo tree is the saddest thing ever in hindsight = (

That's what happens when Sakurai makes decisions based on the community's complaints.

I'm really sorry, I didn't like the char either but my only suggestions were to make her divekicks bounce less high but still combo good.

Yea it's simple but it would've been so much better than...this.

Sakurai listened to the majority and not the minority though and we're where we are. A shame, really.

Literally what the **** happened? I know Bayo was way overturned, but did she really deserve this? Granted I haven't played her yet (the patch isn't out yet, right?), so I guess I'll have to reserve judgement. It just hurts that my favorite video game character finally got into my favorite fighting game, and she ends up getting destroyed. I hope she's still fun to play or I'll have to find a new main. :/

Everything fun about her looks gone, like, really. It looks that bad dude.

She needed tweaks to be less dominating.
But Sakurai appealed to the masses by killing her in all levels of play. The Afterburner Kick change alone is brutal.

I knew the nerfs would be brutal, but I didn't expect them to be like this. Sheik was handled pretty well, so I was hoping they would do the same for Bayo and keep her playstyle intact. From all of those clips in the cci thread, it looks like she can't even combo anymore. Honestly, idk why I'm surprised that this happened to her. I hope it's somehow not as bad as we thought when the patch actually drops.

The dABK change was at least somewhat justified considering how safe the move was, though maybe an in between angle change would have been better. SDI to Witch Twist and hitbox size reductions for those two moves also seems fair.

Everything else... nah.
