Orochi Zephyr Slash counter? | Forums

[Ahfrodisiac]

No matter what I do, I cannot seem to parry/block it. Once they land a hit on me they immediately go into the Zephyr Slash, the side-step dash attack, and even though my character seems to of recovered from the previous attack, cannot put up their guard to block the next attack and a full combo. I know "get gud" is a solution, and we're all trying, but I lose nearly 50-70% of my HP to this tactic. Is it because i'm playing the Warden? Is she just to slow/cumbersome to react in time? Is it latency? Lag? Ping? Am I just a scrub? I need answers! :c

You are talking about the side dodge light attack right? You can block that, parry it even. It's not a free hit like their second top light hit. I don't know what to tell you other than that.
