Let the AI Dex, Parry, and Bait Out Intercepts

Dear Kabam,

The AI needs improvement to make it more challenging. My solution: let the AI parry, dex, and bait out intercepts

Parry: hitting into block is wayy too safe currently, as such the AI should be able to reparry. This teaches players to rely on intercepts for openings

Intercept: The AI should have the ability to hold block to bait out a dash from the player and light intercept them. Once again this teaches players not to rely on hitting the block and forces them to bait the AI first.

Dex: If the player misses their special attack and the AI is blocking, give the AI the ability to dex the attack (NOT APPLICABLE TO MASACRE AND HIS COPIES). This makes it so players get punished 100% of the time when they wiff a special attack instead of having the AI hold block or dash backwards for no reason.

Lmk what the people think.

    I forgot to include that. The AI should be able to silk lock too

    Sure I want the AI to only throw SP3

    Because if you mix this with an RPG based defender (Serpent, Enchantress, Dark Phoenix, Zola), combining it with the need to bring a target counter champion will make BG and other matches nearly impossible.

    Please use logic before you ask these kinds of questions

    Lowkey sounds like a skill issue if you ask me.

    Skill doesn't matter if the champion doesn't counter the defender. For example, if you don't use a mystic poison damage dealer, a champion with extremely high energy resist, or someone with Nova flame immunity against Dark Phoenix, you're gonna lose the match no matter what. Champions like Dark Phoenix and Serpent aren't designed to be able to be countered with skill alone, unlike other defenders like Arcade and even Jean Grey

    There are champions where you do damage and trigger abilities by hitting into their block like Sentinel and Valkyrie.
    Hitting into block is also used as a technique to net get backed up into the wall and there is already a defender who punishes you for doing so - Zola. Cos that his kit as a defender.

    AI was reparrying earlier, and made werewolf completely useless and risky to use. They had to fix this.

    Now let me ask you something, right now the AI is tuned so that we can interecept it (light or medium) but sometimes that too becomes very difficult.
    If Kabam wants they can increase the speed of these intercepts and you will never win any of your intercepts against the AI.

    You talk as if you are some kind of god at the game and the game is too easy for you. I would like to see your gameplay if thats the case cos I really doubt that fact.

    Not to mention the champs who have counterpunch mechanics like Deathless Thanos, Mole Man and Killmonger.

    So you're saying skill < money, glad we can agree on that.

    @the_eradicator I clearly highlighted the fact that any champ that relys on hitting block will not get affected by this change. The reparry system activates after the second input is registered, you shouldn't need more than two hits to bait out any special attacks. Even if you do get cornered you should know how to dex intercept the opponent to push them back.

    But the thing is, these new counters don't exactly require money to obtain, as the Titan will reset in September.

    If the AI loses a big chunk of health, let it force close the game and restart the fight with full health, once every fight.

    This is proof already @CheeseMaster482

    Lol.. you forgot standup intercept too (another thing the AI already does)
    Another idea is to make some characters cause lag.. or maybe a near zero recovery time from:
    - being hit by a combo ender
    - using a combo ender on your block
    - throwing a heavy or special attack
    Maybe certain champs throw random heavies with zero chance of actually connecting them only to activate an ability in their kit

    Maybe certain champs throw specials into a solid block (with zero chance of connecting) simply because it activates an ability in their kit.. stuff like this
    Oh wait...

    I’m not giving you any insight because there’s no point. You have zero grasp on game sense and have absolutely nonsensical takes about nearly every facet of the game. Anything I say is going to be met with nonsense. Also there’s nothing to add. The AI is already terrible, you want to make it worse? Yeah right

    I figured that after reading some of his replies. However, it still felt good typing that out.
