>Lack of defensive mechanicsIn a game that snowballs as hard as Pokken does, you would think that they would give the other player more opportunities to counterplay outside of the typical RPS scenario which happens all the damn time in Pokken. The game has almost zero emphasis on the common core design space in fighting games like whiff punishing and space control and a lot of it isn't even really Pokken's fault; it's the Wii U. When you get knocked down in Pokken at a high level, get ready for the most brutal setplay of your life and the only defensive mechanic that you will be using to get out of a horrible situation is burst or guess and pray. CAing will get you murdered by decent players now and blocking gets you grabbed in a game without a throw tech and it wouldn't be so bad if grabs didn't lead to the same setplay.
