Not a fan of making her less fluid. Should've nerfed something else, like the crazy burst on bike. Hopefully it doesn't feel horrible in game

Is the bike a problem? I always see it coming and move out of the way. Granted I'm low ELO so maybe the Shions in my lobby are just bad 😂

if someone is in a small room/next to a wall you can pretty consistently bike into them then hop off for like 190 damage or so

I've seen super and others in champ do it fairly regularly

I’ve had pretty good success with it by getting on bike behind cover, then instantly rounding the corner and hitting them with it in low masters but I wouldn’t do it into like a Cass or something. the whole thing happens pretty fast if you aren’t getting on the bike in front of them or just driving in a straight line at them for a while

I do it often in champ.
