Kabam, can you tell us what you're doing to the AI please?

AI doesn't like giving us parrys
Parry us a lot more
Intercept us a lot more
Have much faster recovery time after launching heavies or specials
Break our blocks
Baiting specials is a lot harder
Have a longer reach or lunge much further in their attacks
Hit us back while we're right in the middle of hitting THEM with our two hit specials (we hit them, they get stunned, they wake up from being stunned and hit us back. how is this possible??)
Evade our counter attacks after they launch their specials
Pick up dexterity and evade us a lot more (non-evade champs)
AI is very aggressive when it benefits them, passive when it doesn't
Much faster movements especially on day 4 and 5 in AQ
Can you tell us what's going on please? Do we have to beg to get a little information on what changes you're making to combat mechanics?
The window to launch our attacks and evade the AI's attacks is shrinking by the day.

Our window to get any attacks in keeps getting smaller and smaller.
The AI doesn't give parries at the start of the fight. Sits there hands down staring at you so you can come in. Herky jerky back and forth movement alternating between their hands up and down so you attack.
If you attack to setup a parry, the AI just backs up. If you do it again, they'll block and back up again. That's assuming they don't intercept you or parry you in the first place.
It's ridiculous how much we have to risk just to getting more openings to attack the AI.
That's exactly their intent.
That's what I think as well at this point, my alt just kept getting parried to death and i couldn't seem to block or evade properly.
It was against a opponent that I really should have beaten if it wasn't for all the issues that plague combat I would have.
Sometimes I wonder why I keep playing the game while there's so many issues that they just ignore.
Honestly I wish they would put revives back in the milestones ( aw) and make them easier to get without having to spend glory, units or money on them
Even if I was late the AI would normally stand there and block my attack. Now it evades back.
And no it's not late, it's within the acceptable range of being able to hit them. It's on the later side, but normally you'd be able to hit them.
It's on the later side, but it's within the range.
And even if I was late, why isn't the AI blocking my attack, which it always used to do? Now it evades.
Check out this beauty from Map 6.
Trying to bait his L2 before he synthesizes to his L3, lag kicks in as it usually does, I avoid him so I'm not a sitting duck while it's lagging.
When the lag finishes Ultron autoevades with his hands down and I get hit. Has his autoevade ever helped us?? It's useless.
Then I get my block broken while in the corner.
Asking Kabam for answers, might as well as them to play the game for you, right?
Nope, you were well too late... you should be running upto him before he even lands
Yup. Happens to me pretty much every time in that fight. Bait and bait and bait and get smashed.
I've been noticing that to, for example in my last fight in aq the enemy just didn't want to use their special when i was trying to get bait them and get them to bite and use it.
They did eventually but it took far longer than it usually does, the enemy ai has been doing this for awhile now in most game nodes.
Yes I've also been noticing that with special 1 and 2 they hit you and they'll charge before you even get up and start hitting you as well.
It's really annoying, I've also noticed that there's a movement delay sometimes after you block a special and try to charge forward they'll stop then move which the enemy naturally takes advantage of.
