Yeah, I got that. It just seems like he has difficulty actually getting anything off his defense. Like you said, follow-ups don’t seem guaranteed, his heavies actually give him less than most characters would get off a similarly timed parry, and most of his damage is stuck behind a long-ass infinite string. I get that a defensive character probably shouldn’t have huge offense too, but it just feels like he gets almost no reward even when he does take risks larger than most of the cast due to his lack of feints. Maybe it’s just me who can’t use his charged heavy properly or my opponents who get lucky blocking his lights, or something.
What’s your reasoning for Valk being in T1?
Nope! She’s the only character on the list I placed the “centre-point” of what I thought was well balanced. Like a placeholder spot.
30 minute training job, I wanted to throw out a draft list as Odin asked me for one.
I’ll revise it in a week once I’m concrete on things.
EDIT**
should expand, the string I found in training went shield bash > 50/50 guard break or her sweep
I don’t know the escape options, but if it’s backroll only then that is a strong mix-up
I just see everyone bitching about Shugoki and that he needs to be nerfed.
you break his armour through any form of guard break - failed or successful.
He’s pretty average save for guaranteed demon embrace from wall slams
Yeah idk shit about the game just every stream is people notching about Shugoki being op.
he has the cheap shit that requires adaptation meaning every casual player will whine about it
He’s a scrub-buster extraordinaire. Armor, command grab, baseball swing guaranteed off a parry, huge health, heal. If you haven’t started mixing in feints and shit, he will absolutely fuck you to death the moment you commit to anything that isn’t a lightning fast double hit.
Definitely maining Warlord.
No complaints about using him for the first time ever last night.
Full guard is crazy good.
I don’t own the game but I like watching it, just people bitching about op op.
I’m watching truetalents stream atm and he is talking about how op he is while beating on scrubs.
These are people who probably never played a fighting game, and until you get get the meta and learn all the heroes, some shit will fly easier against noobs.
What’s way funnier are the Klingon wannabes screaming about lack of honour if you don’t fight one-on-one. Niggas, why the fuck you playing 2v2 then?
I can’t play the Raider any more lmfao
Either going back to the Kensei or the Warden, the latter isn’t fun though considering he’s braindead as fuck. Kensei is neat. Probably my favourite design for how he fights, looks a bit weird aesthetically though.
Yup… We know for sure Japs don’t grow that tall.
I’ve seen people talking about Shugoki being bottom tier since the earliest alpha/beta phases where he was playable.
so based on the nerdy ass posts in here, this isnt the kind of game i can hop on and mash square like dynasty warriors?
You must suck at Dynasty Warriors
Fun fact- the actual average height for samurai was around 5’4.
Been playing mainly nobushi. I’m getting decent at 1v1 but hot damn if my niche isn’t running around the map, surviving, run up shank bitches for bleed damage and let my team clean up the leftovers.
