Is It Just Me, Or Has Directional Melee Made Excalibur's Super Jump Completely Redundant?

[SIDESTRE4M]

Super Jump has gotten me where no mere jump or Directional Melee has before. Don't knock it until you've tried Power Strength on it.

 

I tried... and sadly 90% is enough to just beat directional melee. And building Excal arround blind rage isn't very funny.

It's sadly the sad truth, my beloved Super Jump just lost it's fame.

My biggest gripe with super jump is how it doesn't compliment mobility very well. I find it clunky to press while sprinting and if I so much as accidentally tap the space button instead of pressing 3 I don't jump. 

 

Still farming oxium for zephyr...

If you accidentally press [space] instead of [3]...

 

How do you manage the other abilities during movement?

I don't jump at all.

Radial Impact: The closest thing to the old Super Jump.  Excalibur leaps into the air, becoming immune to damage and drawing the fire of all nearbye enemies.  As Excalibur comes crashing back down to earth, he releases an AoE shockwave that will either briefly stun or ragdoll enemies, based on how much damage he absorbed.  In the worst case scenario it accomplishes just as much as the current Super Jump, but in most cases should provide some valuable team utility.

I am in the not jumping business too. :)
