Regarding Genra, if you played him as a projectile spammer in dimensions you deserved to lose, two of his projectiles are complete crap, the lightning is his only good one and is mainly used as a spacing tool because genras up close game is really bad. Even so, it's just too unsafe and slow to be used closer than half screen distance, small stages are really bad for genra cause of this.
If genra was to return, his close range game really needs to be changed, projectiles or no, once you get in on genra, he has an extremely hard time getting out of it, his only options are a slow high crush, 13f mid, or throw punishes, but if the other dude is delaying and mixing up, it's a nightmare. Just to show how slow he is, genra is 15/13/17
I'd say his jab would need to be changed to 12f at the very least, 15f is just ridiculous for a jab, even Tengu and Bass have a 12f high. And his guard breaks need to be changed to give him some real advantage, 66p gives him +1 which is nothing for genra, his only decent frame advantage move is 8k which is +2, which is a high, even then most chars can just jab him out of whatever.
Genra is a char that just needs an overhaul to almost his whole movelist, he can keep his throw loops, but he really needs his strikes to not be so overwhelmingly slow, especially if he won't have his force lightning.
