I'd love to pick him up, but I have a dilemma. How do I reliably get an execution? With most samurai, it's just a break into heavy away. With the Raider, it's a classic case of pimp slap, linebacker, wall, knee, zone swing. With the knights, some well placed mind games work like a charm. But the Zerk? They always see it coming. Any tips?

Great job, thank you for the guide. I wanted to play Berserker right after Warlord, but now i think Raider will be more suitable for me. Berserker seems hard as a starting character, although I must admit when mastered he seems like one of the most deadly and frustrating to the enemy. I can't wait to finally play this game. One more month... I think I'll freeze myself until then because waiting is unbearable![]()
Many times in matches in the beta I would be a distance from the opponent and suddenly my zerk would crouch slightly, tuck her axes under herself and charge forward ending in looked like would be a killer upward swing. I have NO idea how to replicate this and the tutorials in the game dont specify (Move Set list or videos). I wanna know WHAT the hell activates that so I can be the scurriest zerker on the field XD
Berserkers are so rad. Most historians think they got high on a potent brew of fermented something (goat milk probably) mixed with magic mushrooms--and possibly blood. They would work themselves into a homicidal, frothing, howling rage and then they would then go into battle, leading from the front since once they got their rage on even their compatriots didn't want to be anywhere the hell near them. Berserkers were so scary in fact that even the Vikings outlawed the practice, even putting it into written law in the first and earliest written laws of the VIkings from Iceland (Specifically...no going berserk). Previous to the battle of Hastings, the vikings were beaten back from the shores of England, but to secure their retreat a sole Viking berserker wielding a long-axe held a bridge alone killing all comers until, finally, a soldier got beneath him and speared him through the bridge. Accounts vary wildly but some say he held the bridge for forty-five minutes and killed over fifteen men, probably exaggeration, but epic regardless.
