Psylocke… bug(?) or punishment(?)… handicap(?)

So Psylocke Sp1 makes her gain energy until she fills a bar of power over a quarter of a second IF she reduces an enemies power meter over a power threshold

Last I checked Cable can trigger regen and power gain from reaching 3 full bars. So why can’t Psylocke’s drain count as crossing a threshold as it’s kinda the biggest threshold in the game 👀

Also can we PLEASE remove the 25% reduced power gain when striking the enemy? It’s a joke

    I don't understand the first part

    Also the second part is just character mechanics, it happens

    The first part. When Psylocke drains an enemies power past a threshold it activates power gain for her

    Draining the opponent at 3 full bars under the threshold for the 3rd bar doesn’t activate her power gain yet Cable treats the 3rd full bar as a threshold crossing for his regen and power gain

    True. It would be good against power builder like Hype. it's just logical.

    HE is the reason I was even tipped off about it! I was testing my 1/25 in the 1.1 of Variant Ultron. Recently going through old/bad champs finding out what they MIGHT be able to currently do and I realize "could she be a REALLY amazing counter to Hype?"

    Sadly the mutants get a double standard! again. THIS could have given her purpose! I hope this is just an oversight because no one has ever used her and as such there are a lot of bugs in her that were just never found

    I use her with GR and AA. She's a good power controller.

    Cable procs when he reaches a threshold not by crossing one like psylocke. Cable hits 100 it procs, psylocke drains at 100 and doesn’t proc because it doesn’t cross a threshold.
