So Oni's flick has been nerfed significantly.
Just a little attention I want to bring to it. As of the recent hotfix, Oni's flick is akin to trying to turn with billy already in his saw sprint. Whether that was a good change or not, I wasn't expecting a second nerf to completely remove it.
His anti-loop potential has been significantly nerfed, since now he can only feasably go in a straight line with his lunge. Sure it's longer than a regular lunge, but it's use is that of a short-ranged Demo lunge. With how terrible his early game can be, this could cripple him at the highest level of play.
I don't think anyone was asking for 180 degree flicks, but being able to at least round one corner at 90 degrees would prove very useful.

So they removed the flick and dumpstered his best add-on in one hotfix. The Yamaoka curse continues with no sign of stopping.

I will keep pinging @Janick on this. He said that the flick with the mouse is supposed to be better than previously but as of now it is far worse. Is it a bug? Or did you lie?

Can we get 10 more posts about this just so everyone knows about it? I don't think there are enough
2 -
This but unironically. I get you're being sarcastic but I want the forums to stay on fire about this until this gets fixed.

Where's your post?
If you're not going to be part of the problem then step aside and let the professionals work.
4 -
Professionals? All you guys are doing is complaining about the same thing over and over. The devs have already acknowledged this issue. Posting the exact same thing over and over does absolutely nothing.
2 -
Thats how it works. Complain until its changed. Once it's changed, complain that it wasn't enough and move on to the next subject. Never give an inch.
Now are you going to sit there trying to extinguish this dumpster fire or help fuel it? The decisions you make now shapes the future.

Are you talking about the beginning of his dash or the the 90 flick on his lunge at the end of the dash?

I mean countless posts of how oni is " OP AND BROKEN " were made and look where it got us to.

It did get fixed. The flick was a bug.
2 -
list these countless posts I've yet to actually see one on here calling oni op and broken

That's something that you should do if you don't believe me and you want to my opinion in consideration - I shouldn't waste so much time gathering infromation for one reply.

The bug according to the dev was that rebinding your keys got you a further lunge.
The mouse lunge wasn't a bug so if that's decreased then it needs fixing.

That flick was busted anyways, doesnt make any sense to be Sonic, have a one shot down and do sharp 90 degres around objects while in the middle of a demon dash.
0 -
Yep
Sonic wouldn't do that.
Shadow would. 😈

Can I have it from neutral? Otherwise my chase around loops are pretty bad.

I mean from a standstill position like billy does his curve which actually takes a bit of skill sure, but holding W while sprinting at 300% speed zipping around corners one shotting people CAAAMAAAAN

Oni's Dash speed is not even 200% dude. He needs his best speed add-ons for his Dash speed to be on par with Billy's chainsaw speed.

You have to be an M1 killer to even get to power up, and now it's pretty much the same ordeal. Survivors can loop you around willy-nilly with windows, and coming out of the sprint still gives them a solid few seconds to jump through the window. Welp, GG Oni.
The devs are being radio silent/pretty vague on this, so I think it's going to be an issue that'll be tucked away for a long while.

I know I was just exagerating...

He’d be a lot more fun with the flick but no myers lunge surely? And more unique at the same time...

As a console user, I see this as an absolute win
