their Hybrid form should be better suited for combat.
This has always been the case but lately, we are seeing exceptions...
King, for example, is not better in CQC in hybrid compared to humanoid form.
Certainly, physical stats are the best in hybrids, always, as it combines benefits from both forms.
However, physicals are not really the bread and butter of CQC. More raw power doesn't improve CQC.
And now we also have Nusjuro and I cant help but think he is the same case as King.
Unless he somehow incorporates the horse body into CQC, as Kaku did, his base form should be superior in CQC.
