Re: How to alleviate rock state knee spam meta: Buff bodyhooks and smart body work

Bro, i'm gonna be as blunt as possible here.

You are WRONG. Body hooks do not need a buff. I couldn't possibly disagree more strongly.

First of all, the stationary rear knee SHOULD be faster than a stationary rear hook to the body. The knee is thrown from the stance, but the the right hook (The specific technique used in the game) requires a level change FIRST before the strike.

How could you argue "The reasoning isn't based on logic"?

Secondly, you always use Nick Diaz as an example, now also Max Holloway. I have one challenge for you. Provide a clip of Nick or Max throwing a body hook combo that isn't possible in the game right now.

That's all you need to do.

Lastly, i would agree with you if you asked for a body hook animation that didn't require a level change... The way the Diaz brothers throw it.. That'd be a different thing and something I personally would like. But the way the rear body hook specifically was animated flows realistically and the speed is appropriate considering the level change.
