If there was a reliable way to neutralize their threat, the character would be nonfunctional.

Except you have RI, GI, and RE. And JG. You don't necessarily have to step at all. Dunno why you need a universal get out of jail free card vs pressure. So wasn't SC1.

"Both sides" being people who want Maxi to be easy to beat.

Maxi already has that exact move in neutral guard though. What's the meter burn accomplish? Extending a weak aGI to catch lows? Heaven's guard exists to encourage stance use. If sc blows him back, he has less reason to use stances.

If Maxi chooses to attack after whiffing a heaven's guard, his options are kinda weak. GHA isn't scary at all without the LH. HGK can be nice but it's kinda slow. HG B+K is definitely too slow to deal with a delayed attack. HG B kinda sucks.

I think the most important addition was giving Maxi a break attack out of Neutral Guard (B+K in stance) Before people could simply reGI to stuff every option out of the stance unless Maxi had a full bar. That strengthened his NG game a lot. Maxi's gotten recent buffs to his 7 Star Rebirth buff...

Nah. He might be a time travelling echo from Astral Chaos since he was attached to it via handling Soul Edge. May not have a memory due to being a echo. (This time travelling stuff can be used to cram anything into any theory)

Hmm. What if Edgemaster is actually Algol's son? That could be why evil EM has his head stitched together like a football.

I'm interested if there's any reasoning behind their placements or if they're just repeating what Thermidior said on Twitter. Because I don't see Maxi as S at all.

Well, technically, Cassie didn't interact with herself. She interacted with an echo of herself from Astral Chaos. Which is a dimension that does not exist in time's flow.

Nope.

She always had a warning that things would go wrong. Turned into a self-fulfilling prophecy.

There is no new timeline.

Why are people putting Maxi at S?

If I'm deleting posts it's either because I'm cleaning up an off topic mess or else someone's reported content as offensive. (Which I generally ignore unless it's spiralling into a flame war.)
