This is why:
Tier 1/A
Kowbat (best hitboxes, period. can take players from full hp to dead if they have any evade, through continually evade locking them with jump attack whilst dealing damage. newbs using this can still be easily blocked, but a true pro will destroy you with it when chasing you whilst you're untransed. trans v trans it's not actually that great, but that's not necessarily why you'd get it anyway)
Bugbear Beta (ridiculous hitbox, the 360 degree jump attack means you can sidewind someone from literally in front of them. it can catch other players VERY quickly due to the nature of its hitboxes. On a side note, players don't block in the right spots and/or at the right times against this trans at all, so make it even easier to defeat them)
Tier 2/B
Blaster (epic jump attack range, but can easily be block glitched against sadly. doesn't have many other redeeming features)
Tier C
Mandragore (too slow, a good surge can outrun this for breakfast. does get epic chains, has good block timing and great 123 combo speed, but that doesn't matter when the only thing you'll catch are other rams)
Melissa (again, slow trans, horrible with almost everything, but can do jumps no other trans can, so CAN be useful sometimes)
Now let's look to the new special transes. The first one is an weaker version of mandragore making it an bottom tier C trans, the weakest special trans for now!! Then let's look to the second one. He's similar like blaster. Not sure if he's beter but get places on tier B.
So what's changed. 2 transes are added making Kowbat and Bugbear more rare with +/- 5 %. So if you want to make special trans back effective there should be add another tier A trans to ballance it again. That's why I suggested Code-Red on the first place.
