This patch introduces a few small but significant balance changes:
- Slightly increased Frore's movement speed
- Reduced the number of startup frames Frore's Ice Blast
- Increased Bommer's Special Cost from 4 to 5
I've been getting a lot of feedback that Frore's a little too slow to be utilized. These changes should make her feel a little more lively. You'll still have to position yourself well in order to line up your shots, but moving to a good position should be easier.
People are realizing Bommer's potential now. She can severely reduce the number points you can get in a round, and also guarantee points in a way similar to Cid—only her bomb placement is much faster. Her previous SP cost was 4, but since she'd gain at least 1 point back by blowing up a platform, it was effectively 3. By increasing her SP to 5, she fits in with other punishing characters like Frore and Lola.
Have fun!
