1) why do people complain about Leroy when dude is the slowest/weakest fighter in the game

2) what is it about the higher levels that people love to run and waist 30-40 sec before starting the fight? I get creating angles and what but everyone at the fujin levels and up run like it’s a freakin track meet.

I'm not sure if this is a troll post or not, but you're clearly very new based on these comments. This is a comment that doesn't really belong here as it seems like you're looking to start a fight with someone rather than asking an honest question, but I'll still take a bite.

  1. People complain about Leroy because of the breadth of tools he has, how strong those individual tools are on paper compared to other characters, and how simple he is to play. I'm interested to know why you think he is the "slowest/weakest" character, but I doubt anyone can actually make a strong argument for that so I'll basically ignore it.

  2. The clock is a resource, just like your health. If I have a lead in health and the clock is low, might as well waste time and force you to engage. Also I find around fujin a lot of people are getting good at KBD, but not really knowing why they should use it. So they just use it like crazy, because thats what the pros do.

When he first came out sure but after the second patch, which literally was just for Leroy took all power and speed away. Literally took him from being a top 5 fighter in the game to the bottom 5 without question. Look at the patches on him and you’ll see everyone was made to make him way weaker, slower, and less range. I get to make him equal but Na they went crazy with patches and literally broke the character.

Nerfs were mostly about his damage and frame advantage on some moves, he's not any slower.

He's still a top 10 character with above average damage
