I'm starting to think the Cat's in a unhealthy spot

I'm starting to think the Cat's in a unhealthy spot

I love Jetpack Cat, she's my most played hero, but ever since the start of the season my eyes have been opened to how ridiculous she really is. A perma-flight assassin support that can exist outside of most of the roster's effective range, insanely fast, near silent, with self-sustain and tether? It's insane.

Why would they buff her speed when she never needed a buff? Why have they made no substantial changes to tether despite it enabling torturous strategies and an oppressive meta for the entirety of OWCS? It's gone beyond the "Just aim" justification if pro hitscan players are struggling to do so. Aiming at a tiny, insanely fast creature in the sky is just unintuitive, especially in a teamfight.

I don't doubt she's getting some serious changes once Blizzard's favouritism ends (If that ever happens) but I hope they give her the right nerfs instead of just tanking the character. Putting tether on a timer and making it unable to carry ult/ulting heroes would be a good start IMO.

[NO SPOILERS] Yukiko and Yosuke aren't holding weapons in their critical animations

Noticed this a bit ago. I'm guessing it's cause the game's unfinished but maybe it's intentional? Like maybe these animations are pre-rendered and therefore can't display different types of weapons. Probably not cause Yosuke hits the card as if he's holding a weapon. And a certain party member would look dumb without a weapon.

Is it time to learn Ball?

I've been wanting to learn him for a while and getting this gem from a lootbox is fuelling that desire. Problem is I have no clue what I'm doing and am afraid of throwing quickplay games. Any general tips to get started?

[NO SPOILERS] How do we feel about the new Velvet Room transition?

Personally I'm not a huge fan of it. It looks cool and all but I think It makes the Velvet Room feel disconnected from the protagonist. Cause instead of going through this magic door and instantly being in the room, he's now in this otherworldly parking lot and has to wait for the limo to pull up. Him no longer being bound to the Velvet Room and presumably able to just walk around outside it makes it feel disconnected and less powerful, if that makes any sense.

Do tell me if I'm being a pedantic fraud. Or just give me your thoughts :)

[NO SPOILERS] Why're people so obsessed with Aika and the idea of her being in Revival?

>!&#x200B;!<I've seen it and keep seeing it pop up several times; people really wanting Aika to be in Revival or even have her be a Social Link (Not how that works, there's no room in the arcana deck). She's funny and all in the anime but I still think it's odd there's this much buzz over a comic relief character.>!&#x200B;!<

Gnoster's, Faurtis's and Animus's existence gives me an overwhelming amount of joy.

They are my favourite boss in Nightreign and easily in my top 5 souls bosses. I've nearly fallen out of my chair several times from the sheer giddiness I get from entering their arena. Their take on duo battles molds perfectly with Nightreign. Their Everdark form adds a whole new dimensions of personality and mechanics to the fight. the music sends me into Nirvana. I love this fight and I love the Sentient Pests. Neither the dictionary or thesaurus can describe how badly I want Gnoster as a plushie and Faurtis as my dog.

[NO SPOILERS] I'm tired of seeing people hinge their hopes for Revival (Jokingly or not) on whether or not arbitrary jokes or dialogue are included.

"Oh boy they better keep Great Vegetables or I'll be right mad! I can't wait for Yosuke to scream about his motorcycle or Kanji's classic watermelon line! I'm so excited for Chie's 'Hwa-ta!' line or the 'only people have human rights' line and if they're not present I will be refunding and boycotting Atlus!"

[NO SPOILERS] I've discovered something exciting in the broadcast (Picture unrelated)

While they were playing Heartbeat Heartbreak during the Inaba segment (7:48 timestamp), I noticed that it had the lyrics from the Reincarnation remix instead of just looping the same verse over and over. This is big because that means all the other songs (with lyrics) that had a Reincarnation remix will have those additional lyrics in their Revival remix, which includes a certain song about finding ways through the favourite tunes playing all day with our eyes closed!!!!!!!

We saw Ianna in the Revival promos, which means they're adding Doi designs into Revival, which means Goatmu could be in Revial!!!!

ATLUS please ATLUS I want my megalomaniacal gaslighter in Revival 🙏
