Title: Regarding the Kunoichi changes on Global Lab 2.1.2023
Family Name: Uglyandsick
Region (NA/EU): EU
Suggestion/Comments: I have tested the upcoming changes to Kunoichi on the global lab build. I like all of them except the changes to Delighted Blast.
In it's current form, Delighted Blast is our best crowd control skill. It's initial hit floats a target and then a projectile moves towards the place we aimed it at when casting. Once the projectile comes into contact with enemy players it creates a vacuum that explodes. The explosion knocks enemies down. Even if they hind behind a forward guard, the explosion still knocks them down. This sometimes created problems because the knockdown effect would cc-cap an enemy early resulting in a shorter combo. However it also allowed us to have a slightly longer combo because delighted would take care of the second for us. I especially liked this because it created great burst combo potential. Delighted Blast - Halo - Moon Storm - Leathal Spin Spree - Flow: Wrath - Flow Indignation is one of my favorite combos.
The changes to Delighted Blast change the was the skill's crowd control works. Instead of the first hit floating and the explosion knocking an enemy down, any target that comes in contact with the projectile gets instantly knocked down. This makes this cc slightly slower. If we stand around 2 meters from a target, the live version instantly floats. The changed version is depending on the range a bit slower (up to half a second). Sadly, because no one wanted to join me for testing, I could not verify if delighted blast still knocks people down through their forward guard.
To sum up: I believe the updated version of delighted blast is a lot weaker than the current version. If the changes go live in the current form, I believe our best crowd control skill will be a lot weaker. It also happens to be a very unique skill that if mastered can lead to great things. Therefore, unless the nature of Delighted Blast is retained through more changes, I would like to see the skill remain as it is right now.

Agreed. I would like to add some other thing if possible; better ways to dp debuff. Moon storm is unfortunately a long cooldown in comparison to halo. Especially for pve/grinding.
