Question

How'd you rebalance? (Dark) Pit

If you were given the task of character balancing, what would you change? Today's subject is, err, ARE both of the Pits. Only one guideline: keep the character's gameplay concept in mind. Otherwise, there's really no wrong answers. And 'I would change nothing' is a fine answer as well!

That's actually one of his custom up-B's, if I'm not mistaken...

True, but you can't really use customs online besides with friends and tournaments that allows customs.

Maybe buff Pit's Side B a tiny bit but for me that's about it

Why'd you D-throw in Sudden Death, though? Literally every other throw KO's at that point...

Dark★Craze ARE YOU CRAZY!!!! BUFF THEIR DOWN THROW FIRST OF ALL THEIR DOWN THROW ISN'T A KILL THROW THEIR FORWARD THROW IS!!! ARE YOU EVEN A REAL MAIN OF THE PITS BECAUSE IF YOU WERE THEN YOU WOULD KNOW THAT BUFFING THERE DOWN THROW WOULD TAKE AWAY THEIR BEST COMBO THROW THEN ALL THEY WOULD HAVE IS F-THROW INTO DASH ATTACK INTO N-AIR AND IF THE PLAYER TECHS THE COMO WONT WORK AND THAT WOULD ALSO

TAKE AWAY A COMBO I FIGURED OUT ON MY OWN WHICH IS D-THROW INTO FAST FALLING F-AIR INTO F-SMASH AND THEN READ THERE GETUP WITH A SIDE B AND THATS PRETTY MUCH 100% GUARANTEED THERE ARE A FEW FIGHTERS WITH REALLY GOOD N-AIRS THAT CAN GET OUT OF IT BUT LIKE SAID VERY FEW PFFT YOU MAIN THE PITS YEAH SURE WHATEVER

IF YOU WANNA SEE A REAL PIT MAIN YOU CAN FIGHT ME

BUT ANYWAYS I WOULD MAKE IT SO THEY HAVE LESS END LAG ON D-SMASH F-SMASH AND WHEN THEY SHOOT AN ARROW BETTER ARMOR ON SIDE B F-THROW TO BE A BETTER KILL THROW UP AIR TO KILL A LITTLE EARLIER AND FOR B-AIR TO KILL EARLIER AS WELL DOWN B TO HAVE LESS END LAG O AND FOR THEIR D-SMASH AND F-SMASH TO KILL SLIGHTLY EARLIER AND SPECIFICLY FOR PITS SIDE B TO KILL AROUND 100 BECAUSE DARK PITS GOT BUFFED

Can't take anything Dawson says seriously.. that caps lock. buffing most would make the character less enjoyable imo, they already have enough kill potential, combo potential and mobility. The pits are pretty much two of the most balanced fighters in the game If i could change anything it would be bringing back gliding, cus y'know.. it's gliding xD

I feel like I'm doing something wrong when playing the character, so I'm not entirely sure if I have a good picture of Pit's place in the metagame right now. I actually feel like he's kinda bad, but everyone everywhere seems to disagree with me, so I dunno. The only thing I'd really want to see buffed is F-throw. Just a bit. F-throw failing to KO Falcon at 140% on top of the ledge is not cool.

@Jasper to get F-Throw to be more effective, fire an arrow at the opponent afterwards. Also, I don't see a problem with his balancing, I'd just change him, so he's not just "Better Pit". his neutral special should be slower but have a larger hitbox and do slightly more damage. Up B should have a hitbox, but not go as far, and Down B should have a hitbox and buff the reflected projectile's...

...power more, but only appear on one side of him. It would be cool if up-tilt was him thrusting his staff upward, as opposed to his kick, and his down air should be more like Roy's. Also, he should be slower in general, but more powerful.

Oh yeah, that's the other thing. Pit's projectile is kinda trash. It's ok for harassing recovering opponents (still not reliable though), but it's just poor in the neutral. The damage and knockback are pitiful and frame data is just poor. (20 frames of startup, what?) It's just kind of a sad projectile in my opinion. I don't know, frame data or power, just buff SOMETHING on this move.

DANG DID I SERIOUSLY COMMENT ALL THAT OUT OF RAGE AND ANGER? I GUESS I SHOULDN'T COMMENT WHEN IM MAD MY MOM STARTED BLAMING ME FOR STUFF I DIDN'T DO AND I GOT MAD AND THEN I STARTED ROAMING MIIVERSE AND THEN I SAW THE COMMENT AND SOMETHING IN ME JUST SNAPPED I FEEL LIKE A JERK NOW SORRY

Please, turn off the Caps Lock...

CAPS ARE KIND OF MY THING

I'd remove some of Guardian Orbitar's endlag at the cost of making it slightly more fragile when struck with non-projectile attacks. Yeah, having a second shield is nice, but not at the cost of an unsafe reflector.
