HERE IS MY PROPOSED HIGHLANDER REWORKpart 1 - offensive stance light attacks
>replace his side offensive stance light attacks (the 400ms ones) with 600ms undodgeable "zone attacks"
>he retains his top 400ms light attack
this addresses one of the pain complaints people have with highlander, which is 400ms omnidirectional light spampart 2 - offensive stance forward dodge attacks
>forward dodge light attack - no properties other than being enhanced - ALWAYS COMES FROM THE SIDE, NOT THE TOP
>forward dodge unblockable heavy attack (cannot be feinted, but is intended more as a longer range rollcatcher for when people are trying to just roll away and sprint away from your moveset, WHICH IS A BIG FUCKING PROBLEM FOR HIGHLANDER)
the main purpose of both is to give offensive form highlander more chase pressure, because right now you basically have to just permanently stay in light attack range, otherwise people can just choose not to fight you until you've unlockedpart 3 - defensive form
>fix the hyperarmor frames on his neutral heavies (he currently only gets 100ms at the end of the move)
>slow down his finisher heavies because my man doesnt need 600ms finisher heavies jesus fucking christ
>give him a forward dodge bash that doesn't secure any damage, but fast flows to offensive stancepart 4 - celtic curse
>normalize the speed of the side attacks to 600ms for each (right now one side is completely reactable at 700ms, and the other one is the only one people use as a result so its very easy to parry)
>maybe lower the damage a bit to compensate
