The KB is very good for koi but is truly shit for build, rods dont do any thing and the only reason to have them in the kit is to rod people to get away and even then that usually doesnt workLast edited on 20 July 2016 - 07:35 PM by hacatu
I can't rod or combo people, since knockback hardly exists in build. Every fight seems to just be an even exchange of hits that ends in a nearly-even game. I greatly preferred season 12 to the current knockback. Hopefully the final knockback is much better.Posted on 20 July 2016 - 08:36 PM
The new knockback TBH is awful, the rod does legit no knockback, remember, this is build UHC not kohi.Posted on 20 July 2016 - 08:46 PM
We have done some testing with the community (as seen here https://www.badlion.net/forum/thread/128023) and have modified the knockback for speed and non-speed ladders. The few select community members approved of the final product after many iterations of testing and we have gone ahead and pushed out the knockback change. The change will propagate throughout all ArenaPvP servers in all regions in the next 2-3 hours. By 9 PM PST 07/20/16, the knockback changes should be live on all servers.This thread will be locked until @ginie1 reopens it for feedback on the new knockback values.
Also to anyone who is unaware, ratings will be reset for a final time this Friday: https://www.badlion.net/forum/thread/128077

@Archybot why aren't there some default values for knockback and how you fucked up it? I have no idea LOLI will now join server and test this new knockback feedback in 5 mins

Non SpeedIt's a lot better than the old kb but it's still pretty hard to w tap. It also feels pretty funky if that makes sense (probably not) instead of smooth. Other than that it's really good ^_^
Speed 2
A little more vertical kb would be nice but it's good, I like it.

KB is still A-W-F-U-L plus we discovered 1 more bug. My friend dueled me best of 5 and when we finished 1 match we got into spectator mode and there were new guys playing not us we just played 1 round of 5 haha poor…Posted on 21 July 2016 - 01:16 PM

The rod still does very little, and people still take way less knockback than you would expect when you rod crit and expect to be able to run away. They just keep hitting you..
I get that it's just adjusting to change but this just feels wrong

So because it doesn't adapt to your style of play you immediately just say it's 'awful'? It's good. You should never have had to rely entirely on a rod for a combo in the first place

I went on right after I saw the post about the kb being changed and it seemed pretty nice but when I went on a few minutes ago it felt like it did before any change happened… At the moment there isn't quite enough kb and laggers seem to take little to no kb that also happens to be delayed.Posted on 21 July 2016 - 04:13 PM

I cannot say I like this KB very much. Any time I try to even get an s-tap backup combo, when I'm used to the other player not being able to hit me, they get a double hit on me as I'm walking backwards. Also, when I'm just going for aggressive strafing, even with a rod or three, I mainly just trade with the other person. It seems like you can only win by one or two lucky extra hits, and you lose easily because maybe one of the other person's hits registered as a crit (or was a crit).All in all, it's not a very fun way to play, if you ask me. I like it when both players have equal opportunity to get solid combos on one another, and you just don't really see that happening with these KB values.
That's my two cents.

You probably didn't read the post because if you did, you would've known that it would take a couple of hours for KB to be changed network-wide.

I think the KB is almost there, just a teensy bit more for speed and a little more for nonspeedPosted on 21 July 2016 - 11:11 PM
Not to be rude but I really cant say i kike the non speed kb at all for build uhc although it is still very nice for ladders such as diamond. Although sometimes it feels nice combos/ double hits are hard to come by and it is mostly trading.For speed ladders, what can i say, its the best speed kb i have seen on badlion and players are moving and taking vertical kb. A little more vertical kb would not hurt but it is pretty good as is

Love the build kb
