Its funny when they nerf them and then the 2nd over used character takes their place.

Well, sure. In any fighting game there's going to be a huge chunk of the player base that just wants to win and will try to do so by picking whatever the "meta" character is. Even in the most balanced rosters you'll still see this behavior.

Or funnier when they keep trying to balance the game so this month X character is OP.

It feels like its simply not balanced if everyones rushing to one character to win.

Good developers will balance around win rate, not play rate, so while you will always have one character that everybody's picking, if they do it right they shouldn't win any more than any other pick.

If everyones disproportionally picking a character how can they decide if theyre not balanced or just popular?

Happens in anything competitive really. Strongest character, strongest gun, strongest build, strongest class, etc. People will gravitate towards what gives them an edge.

I only wish people admitted that they pick top tiers for easy wins/to get carried. Its fine to play them, but dont say it was all you and not the character.

I remember getting really into Tekken 3, and back then the FOM was Eddy by far.

And why not? Spam kick buttons while randomly moving the control stick and you win most of the time.

Unless you were me and bought the strategy guide, then made it your mission to make Eddy players cry by chain throwing them into oblivion with King.
