I agree, at least in brawls and duels Nobushi is OP with that range & poison combination. In Dominion she is useless. Basically you can keep stabbing poison to your opponent from a distance and if you enemy happens to get close, you can do ridiculously easy to execute Cobra Strike Mix Up move to break your enemys guard and hit more poison to him.
I can only agree. I´ve been playing the berserker all day long and I think Iam not the worst with it but I keep losing against the poison which is too strong.Originally Posted by ArtiKo_26 Go to original post
Only chance you can kill that guy is by throwing him off a cliff or hope he disconnects.
Nothing scares me more than a skilled Orochi or a defensive shield user. Her attacks are all thrusting or overhead, so they're pretty much a free evade strike and her only bleed attacks are predictable. Her 3 light combo is perhaps too difficult to read because they're thrusting attacks, but again just move left or right. Her VIpers retreat can also be dodged, but it's just like blocking any other attack, just match the direction during battle and you've generally thwarted it. Her dashing strike and evasion strike are both single side attacks, so just keep your guard top or left respectively.
If you can get close to her, or thwart her bleed effects, her damage output is poor, and her attack combos leave something to be desired. Not to mention how easy it is to see a heavy attack coming.
Just so we're clear, I win every Nobushi Vs. Nobushi fight because of this. (so don't spread it around too much, okay?)
Nobuahi isn't Op but a good can easily kill anyone in a 1v1 if she manages her stamina right. The Nobushi's hidden stance let's her cancel out her attacks to follow up with a second one so if your fighting a Orochi or Peacekeeper for example if you try trusting them and they sidestep you can quickly adjust and hit them. This wastes stamina so she can only do it 2-3 times. I've bursted a lot of people down this way because she can mix it up and attack from different angles.
But only good Nobushi's would do that but she is nowhere near op with the Warlord and Conquerer blocking hits with ease,spamming shield bash for free hits, super armor on their swings so your forced to block, and able to throw you 7 feet back into pits.
Or the Peacekeeper that has a tracking lunge that follows up with her bleed stabs that she can do so fast you cant guardbreak her, or instead she can guardbreak and knock you down. Or use the lunge to chase you down when your running from her. She makes the Orochi look tame.
Pls you haven't played against anyone good yet if you're calling Nobushi OP
