it can be good to use in your block strings to catch people off guard, or baiting pushblocks by charging it
These are all wrongThe cons:
All of her specials are terrible.
Her level 3 is basically DC but worse. "But that wall-bounce though!"
Her moves don't have priority.
Her ranged attacks are relatively pointless.
Hatred Guard rarely works.
She can't block during flight.
All of her noteworthy attacks are close-range, and slow.
Her grab is laughable without hatred install. But it looks cool in air.
She can only match up with 2 characters on the list without being at a severe disadvantage.
Her specials can be smacked away like a chihuahua on a soccer field, so only usable within combos.
Hatred install costs two meter, worth 1 at best.
Even if a move makes physical contact, it doesn't work.
(i.e. hitting Parasoul's feet when she uses napalm pillar.)
100% focus and predictions necessary to succeed.
Did you actually look at the spoiler? I took out the ones which aren't
I'm not even gonna bother
K, let's make an SDE tierlist based on EVO 2013 Top8:
Great, you disprove your own points, saving me the work
The hitboxes being decent doesn't mean in an exchange they will come out on top.
Her strength is simply that if she does catch you slippin, she'll make you pay for it.
Oh, really.. so her priority is FUCKING HILARIOUSLY GREAT, but she's slow. Oh, you said the slow thing 10 times already. So uh??
I don't think half of these are actually a problem.The cons:
All of her specials are terrible.
Her level 3 is basically DC but worse. "But that wall-bounce though!"
She's slow.
Her moves don't have priority.
Her ranged attacks are relatively pointless.
Hatred Guard rarely works.
She can't block during flight.
Her ground dash is slow.
Her pokes are slow.
Flight is slow.
All of her noteworthy attacks are close-range, and slow.
Her grab is laughable without hatred install. But it looks cool in air.
She's easily punished, but can't punish to save her life.
She's slow.
Some of her moves miss Squigly if Squigly simply crouches.
She can only match up with 2 characters on the list without being at a severe disadvantage.
Her level 3 is treated as one hit when blocked, while DC completes all of its hits. Good idea.
Her specials can be smacked away like a chihuahua on a soccer field, so only usable within combos.
Can fly but can't air-dash because logic.
(Meanwhile Filia uses her hidden electromagnetic field generator to airdash no problem.)

(Meanwhile you can literally roll your head across the keyboard and do a sick combo with Double.)
You're free to point me to the quote of mine where I'm suggesting this
I disagree with this *heavily*. No SG character is weak.

I actually questioned StripeyBooshs opinion of her being better than Double

Let me turn your player argument around; are Negus and Domo and Noah and Taluda and <insert PW> much better players than everyone else?
If you go roughly even with a 'weak' character against someone who plays a good one, that must mean you're the better player, aight?
Still no. Even in the event that an aerial is executed before another character's, PW loses to their attack anyway.
Guys pls.
Everything on that list is wrong. Am I playing the same game? This is Skullgirls, right?
Matchups where I feel Painwheel does well (1v1): Everyone.
Matchups where I feel point Painwheel does well (Multi v Multi): Everyone except Point Peacock. Then it's only okay.
Matchups where Painwheel does well (1 v Multi): Everyone without Peacock on Point or Running 2nd.
If you're complaining about any of these matchups, go spend some time in the hyperbolic time chamber. I implore you. It will be time well spent.
The Parasoul matchup is tough because it's different, but after a few matches you really start to figure out how Parasoul works.
Yeah, PW is harder than Filia. But more difficult and worse are two very different things~
That's uh, SG in general..?
