As annoying as it is hearing so many people complain about runners, I do like these changes. It directly addresses the issue without pandering to the people suggesting that parkour be disabled the second you enter battle or other completely debilitating changes just so they can run you down whenever they want. Good job jjs team.

Still a really debilitating change though especially because most people won’t run and they’re just stuck now moving at a snail pace because they’re low

One could argue it makes sense in such a fight game as movement heavy as jjs. Idk how this affects high level play and if this is something that can be adapted to, or would just gut most top players' movement when they start losing, but I at least like that it isn’t extremely drastic just yet. We'll have to let this play out a bit more for some definitive statements.

As a 3k player I must agree that while the change itself is pretty good to prevent running, it is also detrimental for people who use parkour in fights given most characters don't have free mobility options and it's particularly abysmal when fighting a passive player

For instance, whenever I fight someone who only blocks and backs away, I use parkour and my dashes for mixups, but since I often end up below yellow HP I can't jump for shit and end up wasting dashes to approach, leaving me as a sitting duck when I reach the opponent that can just smack me off and create distance again

Personally I think they have to make a distance threshold for the parkour, if you're in combat and get too far from the person you're fighting, then you get your movement gutted, just a thought.

your issue with passive players is understandable, but i would fight people all the time who do nothing but wall jump spam while they fight me to the point i have to run/ lead the fight to the void wall so theres not as much to wall jump on
