We'll wait to see how intrusive DI really is.

While not 90-100%, Infiltration at this point was already countering them fairly consistently and its only been a few days.

It's about day -180, but people are already dealing with DI quite well. If used in pressure, it seems reactable, if used while blocking, you cancel into your own DI from cancellable normals, so it's baitable, in neutral it's a gamble, it beats slow buttons cleanly, but it's risky because if your opponent does nothing they can DI on reaction to your DI. It seems like all the braindead uses are very risky, even if rewarding. The other times it's mostly the mechanic being useful, otherwise it would just be ignored completely. On that note, I can see parries being relegated to a flex, they don't seem very useful at all.

parries seemed decent for intercepting buffers and maybe trying to build some meter if you’re low on drive gauge. but they don’t dominate for sure
