community comments about the stream:
We understood you like the game but keep calm with the shilling lol.
You’ve never seen Affinity post before have you
the 3+ hour video is here!! Greatest warrior game, multiplayer game, and competitive game to date!!
I think its funny. We got this dude Affinity who loves the game. He’s basically trying to sell us all on it. Then there is this other dude, OceanMachine, who seems to really dislike the game and is trying his best to make it seem no good and turn everyone away from the game.
Anyhow, I’m mad jealous of y’all motherfuckers. I want to play this shit so bad.
Lolwut? I never said it’s a bad game nor tried to convince people not to play it. I only really dislike one part of it (the insta kill maps).
I mean I’m the one who opened this thread…
StoneMountain was letting folks know with some Warlord. Very interesting to watch.
He’s just mad because bad, pay no attention.
Excited for the next beta, hoping they’ve adjusted Warlord so he isn’t as batshit insane as usual.

Thanks, the na delay was making me mad.
Game looks good, hyped for the beta. I initially though it’ll be a Battlefront II type game following the E3 reveal but I am liking how it’s turning out. The meme game is strong with this one.
Aight… We in there today.
Yooo game is hype, add me if you guys be playing(psn): rom_freak
FUCK. Me and a friend were dicking around in vs. AI and I lost my 100% W/L ratio for fucks sake, lmao.
Alright, so opening thoughts on the general meta after the recent changes.
Kensei is better, his toolkit has damage now so even though he’s linear as fuck he actually gets rewarded for landing clean hits. His side heavy attacks are also exempt from parry > guard break, as they make guard break whiff. This makes the Kensei a strong zone-type character like the Nobushi, but I’d say he’s the “Ryu” of the game. He can do both zone and rushdown, mixing this up is what makes him fun to play as well. His unblockable overhead ender is still bad, you’ll get parried against anybody good. I’m playing the Kensei now after finishing up with the Warden, I’ve lost a couple but I blame that on unfamiliarity. Around 85% W/L at the moment and I’m nearing level 10 with him.
Warlord is still very strong, although it’s not blatant that he’s the best in the game any more. His nerfs addressed a couple of huge issues with the character. He’s still most definitely tier 1 however. Tier list will probably shaken up if ever so slightly, with just the Raider being bottom 1 now the Kensei is worth playing.
Anybody else playing Elimination in Beta 2?
I have some mixed feelings about it.
Powerups on map make map control pretty interesting, I played a game earlier where an assasin got speed up and basically spent an entire round denying our team pickups and it was effective.
Not really digging perks being available in this mode. Bows giving to my knowledge guaranteed 2/3 life damage in deathmatch feels too good, along with things like catapult and fast revive. Bad on the other team for not finishing a single one of their plates, but I can’t help feel bad for them when I hit six revives in a round.
It is nice playing a big team format without all the chaos of Dominion though.
