    Samurai over powered in duels and brawls

    Whenever I play duels and brawls as Viking or knight heroes I always find myself being outmatched and over powered by enemies using samurai heroes. This is really annoying because everyone plays as samurai in duels and brawls and makes the game modes very unbalanced and unfair to players who prefer other factions. Knights and Vikings need to have a buff in duels and brawls to make the game more enjoyable.

    Vikings have that Jumping Stun and Charge Attack that if timed right you can throw the opponent of the map, not too sure bout the Knights, yet the one that spin attack with the Mace with is OP

    All I play is kensei, and I still get killed by all the other hero's, if the player is good enough. Each hero has a specific tactic in handling them. You have to force the samurai to attack, to open them up to counter attacks. Samurai is all about counter attacking, so it isn't wise to straight attack them head on.

    yes i agree with Arbiter UK, but there are ways to counter them the Berserker has no match to Kensei but raider can take out Kensei easy, this is why i enjoy the game every class has it's weaknesses and Strong points you just gotta learn to adapt. i fought someone 10 rounds with the berserker and 10 rounds with the raider, i lost 3/4 with raider and i won with the berserker each time, each class has a strong suit and weak suit, its your job to figure out which is which... in the end if they soften all classes to the point where all classes will just be "different Skins" there wouldn't be no distinct pros and cons on using them. The Conqueror is a hard one for me to counter or attack, i cannot get a grasp on his weaknesses and or Strongness

    Knights aren't that op except for a few moves the conqueror has, Both samurai classes are op followed by the Raider. Beserker is alright as it is.

    Naw, only the orochi is OP. He has to many moves and options when facing any type of opponent. My friend played orochi for 4 games and this is what he said "Wtf I have so many options for every situation".
