Water has more than enough to stand on its own as one of the better symbols.

The only thing keeping it from shining is a board presence that protects it from Olcadon's Mentoring. Water can wall up with the best of them. Rejection/Battle Prowess/Altered Mind and Body/Life Gain from Chester's Backing can be an absolute wall to get around.

But when almost every other viable symbol in the game also as a method to wall up AND protect its board from Olcadon's Mentoring, all they have to do is slow the pace down a few turns until they can nuke the relevant cards in your SA.

Water multi-symbols very well, particularly with Air, Earth and All.

I still say Water is currently the third best symbol in this game. It's hard to differentiate itself from Air unfortunately, but, in the ways that it does, I feel that it's that much better. It has the most reliable kill (Feline), the best life gain/redux (Prowess/Rejection), a slew of amazing characters (Chun Li/Sakura/Seong MiNa), it's just terrific.

I'm not going to bog down my deck with another 3/5 just to generate momentum for Feline Spike.

Sardine's Beach Special and Fweem work just fine.

So... what I get from this is that more people are running Water? The whole water discussion has kind of taken over the conversation.

Hmmm Yeah, although you did make some very valid pointers in your post Havoc.

I'll give that idea a go and report back.
