Crane gold aura vs SK silver aura

All of those videos just pissed me off for the simple fact that those vids are the perfect showcase of how SK BARELY has any weaknesses.. Now those cranes kinda sucked at keeping distance from the SK, but really SKs just barely have any weaknesses and their kit can pretty much counter almost anything in the game.

People see Cranes as a counter to SKs for two main reasons, he can keep them at a distance decently reducing the skills the SK can use, but SKs Violent Slice is 45m with 10 second CD... (Sure, it has a 1 second cast time but doesnt really matter against Cranes) and Cranes uses DoTs so SKs cant just pop on massives amounts of reflect to counter the first reason. (Reflect needs to be capped period, no one should win a battle from gear alone.) BUT as seen in the first video they can use senzu beans more than once in a match up since its Damage Over Time so they are long fights..

Really all those cranes could do was use Thousand Slashes lol but that has a 2 min CD. This class alone just makes me not take the game that serious on a competitive level, no hate on anyone though who plays SK it's just my reaction to this thread.

that crane didn't have the right gear therefore he lost.

How are you going throw out such a bland statement without explanation to back it up? Which crane and in which video?

This wouldn't happen on this server though. Crane's DoTs are WAY more powerful here since they take attack into consideration and is not a base and always the same damage.

wtf! why those cranes never use their bleeds?

anti bleed accessories make them useless.

ohh thats right i thought about that but i didnt remember that the "searing crane" skill does BURN damage thats why she kills him in the first video with the thousand slashes

I am a level 42 crane and never beaten any SK.....

I think this shows that something needs to change for cranes inorder for them to last in budokai,

although the last video the guy clearly didn't have proper gear, something needs to be done to ensure class balance in pvp and especially budokai!

I think Cranes have a very nice chance against SKs. I just think those cranes being showed just didn't have the skill set.

Dunno much about anyone, but I think cranes are a great all round class... it just needs someone to use it right

Thousand slashes broken af tho
