Solo really isn't that great, assists can really give solos a hard time. Things like Hornet Bomber, Updo, Napalm Pillar, Cerecopter, they're all great assists and some solos just don't work at all without assists like Valentine.

Solo is viable depending on the character to pick, but expect an uphill battle to get that vital hit-confirm you need while dodging assists and the point character.

Ratio 1 Cerebella is fine how she is. Yes she can get stupid amount of damage (Solo ratio + heavy damage grappler= bad news bears), but what good is all that damage potential if she can be a victim to good spacing and solid fundamentals in the matchup?

solo players = low tier heroes. Losing to a solo is a buttdevastating taunt

If you lose to solo Peacock you deserve to get taunted, cause solo Peacock is ass.

OP, you're totally on to something. I mean, Solobella has won every major so far, including Evo. She's ridiculous. It's totally inconceivable that she's balanced.

If you hit "A" on the keyboard 5 times and wait a little bit
it will play Monday Mitten Masher.

Alternative 5A song, this on repeat:

I personally think every character is OP, which if you think of it like that the whole thing is balanced. If I lost it's not because Solobella is OP it's because I'm not good enough to beat the guy playing the Solobella.

Air can be a touch risky due to her command grab (name?). Fortunately, most can't confirm out of it without a super (is it even possible).

Its Excellabella, and you can convert into a full combo in the corner. Outside, I dunno. I think the best you can get is a Diamond Dynamo or Titan Knuckle.

Any character can seem OP in the right hands

True, but you can't assume they'll do it all the time. Say you jump, air grab in anticipation, they might just stay down there then USS you or DD you when you land. It's all about reading your opponent. It's just with Cerebella, the stakes are much higher. It's life and death! The most terrifying show!

IMHO Bella could use some common sense nerfs in a few places... But not her command grab damage... That's like one of the shittiest things about her.

Her stupidity comes from her godhands, her non grappler mobility, her meter gain and her ease of combo into stupid dumb damage.

But uss is like the last thing that should be nerfed about her (meaning that it shouldn't be nerfed). People don't even use that move much except to mash it in the middle of people's combos or to counter hella predictable or unsafe moves... Which is completely fair in my mind.

And buffed slightly so she has more of a place on a team?

What is godhand?

God Hand is one of the best physical Skills in P4 and a pretty good anti-air hyper and combo ender in P4A. It's also...

oh wait, Cerebella. I assume Dime here is talking about her fantastic air normals, specifically j. MP and j. HP.

This is Godhand. No discussions.
Image of Typical Cerebella day
No problems here. Those are the faces of everyone who did not applaud during the final act of her performance, the monsters represented haters who tried to one up her but failed miserably and were forced to live out the rest of existence as hideous beings, the eye is Vitale's, and that's just one arm of Vice-Versa. The other is in a very scenic area filled with flowers, happy children, candy, and Ballonicorns.

Let's not take the Capcom route and nerf the worst characters, ok thanks.

>nerf Wright's invincible assist that he had to work his ASS off for to get against people who know how to get past Maya
>pays no attention to Hsien-Ko's easy method of coming in on point, 1 meter super armor hyper activate, switching out, then proceeding with THE SAME INVINCIBLE ASSIST CRAP THAT WRIGHT WORKED HARD FOR

"But-but Clawsome senpai, don't be mad, after all Hsien-Ko still takes damage..."

BULLSHIT. The few hundred points of damage you land before you get hit (AND YOU WILL GET HIT) are nothing compared to what someone can do when they confirm (AND THEY WILL CONFIRM) off that invincible "AIYAAA" nonsense.

*unrelated rant over*

Yeah, I also agree that Cerebella shouldn't be nerfed. Maybe people should read some Cerebella counter strategies or, like someone else already said, play her for yourself and see that it's not as easy as it looks to play Cerebella properly (note that "properly" does not always denote "churning the butter" and mashing command throws out of combos).

Cerebella isn't even the best solo char- that's Valentine.
