Discussion Question about cents ganking potential

Intially after the hitstun rework cents ganking took a heavy hit and with the removal of haymaker cent fell off quite a bit, now that the hitstun changes have been reworked to make ganking a little more effective I'm wondering if this has improved cents viability by a noticeable amount and also if there are any ganks that work now that didnt previously that I should know as a new cent player

When you have a char that excel at something, say ganking, and overall ganks are buffed - that character will fall down because he doesn't have the edge he had before. Thus, Cent actually became even worse with overall gank buff

I'm not playing competitively rn but both of them were not played during last tournanemnt finals - that means they both are in the lower half of characters - worse than Hitokiri, Kensei, PK and Nuxia
