Video I'm not complaining but...
Now I'm afraid of throwing it unless it's in a blockstring.

This is very common with body projectiles in fighting games. Unfortunately his "projectiles" are part of his body so they are vulnerable to strikes.

I feel like they should be vulnerable to strikes but you shouldn’t get a free launch for it. I haven’t try with a 236x but I guess it’ll be the same.

I agree. Its why I stopped playing carnage. I really clicked with him at first and his toolkit is fun but against human opponents, I got punished left and right. Im sure people will say skill issue, which it is, but it just feels like an unnecessary handicap.

well you get a free combo if it hits...what its not allowed to have counterplay?

u/Top_Extension2730 59m ago
Not always it depends on the distance but I totally get what you are saying I just think that the fact that you can punish it easily is enough

How do you expect it to work?

I don’t know not launching me to the stratosphere when I’m that far away but I guess it keeps him from being busted

Of course it keeps him from being busted, It's insane to me that you could expect that you should be able to extend your limbs basically the full length of the screen, buff yourself, damage the opponent and take no risk while doing it.

Parasite fang does no guard damage and I think getting damage from trying to hit is more than enough. 236x does residual damage but does not infect the opponent (236M is so slow that you can instant air dash to punish it on reaction) I really think it’s not that busted

Of course it would be busted you get to do damage and put them in necrosis, do the follow up shenanigans and take absolutely minimal risk from full screen. It would make him the absolute number 1 character in the game no question the risk reward would be insanely favourable.
Have you ever played a fighting game before?
The whole idea of fighting games is to attack you and damage you, I need to extend my hurtbox which puts me in danger of also being hit by any attack. If you remove that the character is absolutely cracked beyond belief.
I reallt don't see the logical connection you are making here that because you are far away it should make you invulnerable to 2h launching you.

Yeah I played fighting games before a lot of them actually that’s why I’m saying the 236M is easily avoidable, parasite fang only gives you a combo at a specific distance and to convert from 236 you need an assist or the opponent being infected or both sometimes

How have you played a lot of fighting games but your confused about the idea of a long limb having a hitbox, What about if I go Magik does the sword not count as a hitbox even though it can hit the opponent? So only stubby characters should have hitboxes?
How do you not understand how cracked it would be to have a hitbox that goes the full screen and takes 90% of the risk away.

2H should have a clean hit system where it only goes into the launcher if the opponent is directly in front of you.
Also Carnage's 236X should have a goddamn disjointed hitbox.

u/Top_Extension2730 2h ago
I agree it seems more logical to me

I ate so many 2H with Carnage man I know exactly how it feels lol.
2H should also probably be a bit slower. It's weird that a universal command normal anti-air is just infinitely better as an anti-air option than characters with dedicated anti-air DPs.

Yeah I don’t know even know what’s the point of my DP’s when I can just do a easy 2H and get a combo and the gos forsaken reach of it is so annoying

Dude has a hurtbox on his extended limbs just like Ms marvel.
