So Intimidate is just a worthless debuff now?

3 matches in a row, Titania throws sp3 I go to punish and the ai throws its special.

What's the point in having a set rotation when the debuff doesn't work?

Honestly Kabam, what are you doing with this AI? Whatever you're doing just stop, you're messing it up more and more, it is somehow getting worse by the day 🤦‍♂️

Same when I use infuriate and the AI back off and throw combos into the air, or block for nearly the entire duration of the infuriate.

Try to get a panther special intercept for the AI to back off and stand there waiting

It's broken with many champs due to the rogue AI

I didn't say it wasn't, we all play the same game so we all obviously know the AI is busted. It shouldn't have to be reiterated every single thread with every single comment someone makes but if it makes you all happy here is the the version of my comment with the addition of the redundant opener.

"Yeah the AI is super busted so I'm not surprised if that's the culprit but also read the description of her intimidate, and you will have your answer"

I'm just saying that her intimidate is only a 30% so it's entirely reasonable for the AI to throw a special with only 1 on 3 matches in a row

As a titania convert (full suicides? No problem, makes her even more nutty!) I've also noticed it.

Ditto on infuriate for panther and herc.

Where does it say the ai won’t throw special? It only refers to block. Wish kabam would fix it completely im tired of wasting a ban on Titania lol

Same as Taunt. Rarely works now. I don't even understand what's the point of having these debufs if A.I do whatever it want to do and completely ignore them.

An opponent is less likely to throw a special while blocking.

It’s a knock on effect, but you’re right that it doesn’t specifically say that intimidate stops specials.

It’s the same way that infuriated opponents end up throwing specials because you’ve made them dash at you, and if they’re dashing at you and aggressive and open they’re less likely to be blocking and far away, so they’re more likely to be in a position where they throw a special.

So an opponent that is dashed back in the corner holding block is less likely to be throwing a special, which is why people realised that intimidated opponents tend to throw less specials.

This is usually so when it's all working.

My issue is when an infuriated AI with no specials banked still stays far away and holds block. OR when an intimidated opponent is still super aggressive and throwing specials instead of blocking.

They work sometimes others they dont - when something is this unreliable it is difficult to rely on it.
