    What patterns do you see from each faction?

    It's obvious that people that like different factions have different patterns, so which ones have you guys noticed?

    For some reason, every time i face any Knight, they always seem to be quite good at blocking compared to any Samurai or Viking player.

    Samurai players are always weebs.

    Wish it wasn't the case, but it most certainly seems to be.

    Knights are friendly, but don't do much. Kind of predictable in their attacks. I find they generally follow "honor rules".

    Vikings tend to throw out attacks like no tomorrow and go for throws. I laugh at them with Hidden Stance. Never gotten a pre-fight emote from one.

    Samurai don't say anything until they start losing, then complain endlessly. They also almost always try to run if I start beating them.

    Vikings - A lot of trash talk, desperate attempts to get environmental kills, and over-use of specials.
    Samurai - Literally never say a word during games, guard-break and light attack spam all day long.
    Knights - Feints for days, emote constantly after successful team-fights, revive-happy as hell.

    Vikings tend to be the most trollish of the bunch. They like to wait by ledges and stare at me and predictably spam guard break. Raiders love that unblockable btw.

    Samurai are always orochi. Maybe a nobushi every now and then, and some unicorn kensei every now and then. They tend to make big plays cause it looks flashy I guess.

    Knights? Well the wardens like to guard break, peacekeepers like to dodge and jump on your head. I can speak for conquerors I guess since I play one, we love that wind up heavy! Oh and love blocking too. Also I like to bait with heavy hits

    Samurai seem to have less of a stamina problem so I usually have to deal with major flurries of attacks which sucks for me.

    Literally every time I play, the other team just runs away and I cant catch them. Then some how it ends up being 1v4 and I die. They always just run away. Most annoying game I've ever played. Make running kill stamina faster or something I dont know.

    Samurai spam light attacks and run away when they start losing or even when just in a fair 1v1. There are only a few really good ones who destroy people.

    Vikings and knights seem fairly balanced to me, most only run while outnumbered.

    ^ I feel like this is generally the most accurate lol
