Minor post about Giovanna
Why is making a comeback with Giovanna so much easier than other characters? I understand obviously that when she has 2 meter she does 10% more damage but is that really enough to be the reason?
For context I just started playing Giovanna after being an axl main, and whilst its been a rougher journey than my time with Axl given I had played Axl a lot pre ranked update and Giovanna I hadn't touched. Axl made comebacks feel nearly impossible without the enemy royally slipping up, meanwhile Giovanna just snaps something in me and I feel like I somehow get better at the game than I actually am, turning pixels of health into complete comebacks.
Giovanna makes me feel like I just have so much agency at the end of a match, is there something about the gamestate that favours Giovanna more at end game? my running theory is its a mix of enemy exhaustion, the slight damage boost, locking in and my time spent with Axl somehow damaged my mental into thinking any negative position meant I was cooked, but now being at a pixel of health makes me feel like my job is now to simply prove how far I can go with that pixel, it's unironically elating and that dopamine rush means I've put nearly 140 games into Gio just this weekend and will soon hit diamond if I keep going at the rate I'm at.
