I hate V3 Songque | CN Beta 7.6v3 Gameplay

BGM - Inevitable Struggle (Super Arr.)
The only redeeming factor is your updated feet model!
Disclaimer (I have to write this in case some players misunderstand the title): The whole point of a beta is to test stuff, changes are inevitable. A newer beta patch can have drastic changes from before.


Why V3 ruined Jovial Decepticon:
1. Green form basically deals no damage now.
2. They made it so that yellow form has inconsistent damage. One would expect all combos (mirror attack) to do the same damage right? Nooooo, not anymore! The change ruined situations where you have the option to end outburst early with an extra one or two basics; now you have to sit through the ENTIRE sequence in order to get a (potential) clean kill. Who knows though, maybe this is just an S0 thing? Refer to 7:40 for an example.
3. "But Mimi, couldn't you just end outburst and cleanup with Green Que?" Look at 2:50. In V2, I could simply cast an ultimate before entering outburst, but it doesn't work now because you have to use ult during outburst.
4. Previously, one could cycle through Songque and Lantern without any drawbacks (refer to    • Que, Divine Bruteforcer | CN Beta 7.6...  . Look at how long the cooldown is now (1:38).
5. Reducing crit rates on her gears? What a lame move. Stay strong F2Ps, don't be fooled into pulling Serapeum!
6. Overall, Songque's rotations are a lot less versatile in V3.


Here are the score comparisons (V2 on the left).
• Jizo: 749 vs 715
• Ass: 752 vs 742
• Otto: 757 vs 753

I didn't include two other bosses in this video as their scores are much, much worse than before. I also didn't include her P1 teams with HoRb and TA into the equation, for they have a separate mechanic altogether. Her damage in a P1 team did get a buff though, so rejoice again, F2Ps!

Should you still pull?
I can't decide. I really can't. 7.6 PV teased a fan favorite character who should be released in the near future.
