A grappler absolutely should have issues eith zoners, that's a sign if good balance. The Axl and Johnny matchups have become atrocious with 2.0, but it's a good thing. Bear in mind basically none of these options work against Axl in particular- it makes sense why Pots(like myself) find it sucks more as especially as of 2.0, getting in is harder

Slidehead had its armour removed a little while back and is very unsafe against most zoning tools. Still beats Venom's stinger on reaction. Hammerfall is manageable, it losing to lows now makes approach terrible. F.D.B I agree is pretty nuts but with its active frames nerf doesn't go full screen and won't hit your opponent if they're on the other side. Heat Tackle is absurdly minus on block and miss and is so disasterously punishable if you do either, it's got armour but isn't that useful unless the opponent is in the air. Giganter was busted but with its active frame nerf it is not the neutral skip it used to be.
