Don't expect major changes in terms of power rankings, as the balance patch focuses on some pinpoint issues instead.
After much wait, Roger Jr. releases in "advanced access" with a full release 5 days later on 17th of November.
The starter guide released some time ago already had people groaning about the character's oppressive stances and heat moves, but it remains to be seen where Roger Jr. will land on the tier list, or how annoying he will be to fight.
Aside from a new character, the patch comes with the usual assortment of new cosmetic packs (this time gladiator themed) and a few other cosmetics.
When it comes to balance changes, it doesn't seem like Bandai Namco were looking to change things too much. Majority of the changes you'll see are to hitboxes and collision detection, in an attempt to fix countless unintended situations.
As disappointing as that might be for anyone who wanted a more substantial balance patch, consistency is kind of important before developers go ahead and tackle bigger issues.
