I mostly play Conqueror so it may be my class choice but, is The Raider a bit op it seems in his move set. With the long rush and throws and the quickness for his size and speed. Or is he just a natural counter to the Conqueror?

Not to mention his dash and then throw the distance on that is a bit to much

I think that the Raider is just a nice neutral character. His heavy attacks are powerful but slow but then quick attacks although not as fast as Orochi or Kensei are pretty descent. This alo may be just my prefrence because i do prefer the raider over the rest.

The throw distance gets even larger once you upgrade certain gear items for the Raider class.

"It's a hail-mary pass from the 30 yard line... He catches it and runs! To the 50! To the 40! To the 30! He. Could. Go. All. The. Way!!! Oh, no, nevermind; he took an arrow to the knee."

Youre outlining all the good about the raider but maybe youre forgetting the good of the other heros. Like the crazy defense of the conqueror, or the speed of the assassin classes. The raider can do some good damage but if you can block his first few attacks hell run out of stamina quick and then hes screwed (I know cuz ive had this happen to me a few times) The conqueror is really good at that, or with an assassin hero you can dodge out of his attacks. I went up against the assassin samuri hero in a duel and he was so crazy fast that i couldnt even land a hit with he raider. It just takes some time to find the strengths of each hero I think.

I almost had two prestige on the Raider and yes he is hard to deal with for conquerors because of his unblockable heavy swing. If I put that in a chain against the conqueror it can be devestating because you have to parry or dodge. Learning to reliably parry takes practice and your dash is slow as a tank so he is just a hard fight for you.
