Pit Neutral Attack 1: Increased attack speed.
Pit Up Tilt Attack: Reduced vulnerability.
Pit Down Smash Attack: Extended launch distance when hit with the first attack.
Pit Back Air Attack: Reduced vulnerability when landing after using the move.
Pit Down Air Attack: Extended launch distance when hitting an opponent in the air with a meteor effect.
I don’t have much of the exact numbers, but I believe jab is frame 4 now instead of frame 5. Up Tilt combos more consistently into Nair, which is great, just wish Uair was better but this is an important first step. The front hit of Down Smash kills earlier, which is nice. Bair just got crazy good on shield I think. Down air is a small buff but still, the move was so weak before, and maybe, just maybe this means Dair will be safe on hit on grounded opponent’s at low %.
So, what do I think? So far, the Bair upgrade seems most important, followed by Down Smash, and after that Up Tilt, then Jab and finally Dair. Overall, I’m quite pleased that Pit was actually noticed and got attention, I’m relieved to have avoided the worst case scenario of no buffs. But, Side Special remains untouched, which is unfortunate, and if Uair got extended launch distance Pit’s kit might be complete. The Down Special too could use a little less end-lag. So, today is an overall win for Pit, and I truly hope this isn’t the last of his buffs, because what I mentioned above can truly be a problem at times. And thankfully Ivysaur was nerfed, Ivy mains complain just as Pichu mains did (which
is really annoying for people to think their character deserves to have unbalanced, way overturned moves that give them an edge), but the whole cast should appreciate a more legitimate Dair, and Down Throw Fair was some of the nastiest, most disgusting of consistent kill confirms I’ve seen since Up Tilt Waft. Forgot to mention, I’m not sure if they’ll buff Silver Bow which sounds really bad for DP’s viability in the future, but who knows?
What do you guys think of the Pit buffs, and do you have any more info about them?
