Despite looking really badass, the lawbringer is the worst character. He barely stands a chance against any hero. His attacks are completely trash and unbelievably slow. He can't land an attack even while playing against MEDIUM speed heroes, since they can just do light attacks to keep you from attacking at all. Not even parrying works since the time it takes him to attack allows the opponent to fully recover from the parry and attack you before you can even attack after the parry. Now, that's against what I call medium speed heores. Against high speed heroes like the peacekeeper, orochi, warden, etc, the lawbringer stands absolutely no chance whatsoever. He can only put up somewhat of a fight (but not a good one) against other slow heroes. Shugoki, although perhaps being the slowest one, can absolutely obliterate anyone using lawbringer thanks to his fast recharging non-staggerable stance.
Also, heavy attacks are completely useless since atempting to do one is like waiting for Goku to finish charging his spirit bomb. He is soooo wide open and slow anyone can easily stop him from doing a heavy attack, even if that person is out of stamina.
Conclusion: Lawbringer needs a complete rework
I totally agree with you, I played with him all day yesterday and he is so bad. I want to main this guy, but all his combo, plus stamina pool is soo bad. the only way I can beat someone is by guard break plus heavy attack, that it. I don't understand how character like the warden, the conqueror, the warlord, the Nobushi, etc all have some kind of a push with a free attack after except for the lawbringer! his push are useless unless you want to push somebody off a cliff, but all those character above can do the same? this guy is like a warden but with heavy attack, but any decent player will parry all off those attack. Ubisoft please do something, I gave up on this guy...

I agree. I was planning to main lawbringer, and I even managed to make him rep1 lv11.
His moves are so bad for playing clean. I manage to get most of my kills trying to push some one off the ledge.
His attacks are sooooo slow even his unblockable is so easy to parry or be dodge.
He is so dependent to environmental kills.
Any battle takes so much time, since you try to be reactive coz being aggressive will just kill you.
Ubi, rework our Law bringer!
dont you see his enemies cant even dodge or counter his guard breaks? If you fight someone experienced, all your attacks can be parried, deflect, dodged. That video is useful for begginers but as you level, winning becomes challenging since using Lawbringer puts you more on the losing sideOriginally Posted by Orderly_Chaos Go to original post
Nobody is saying you can't do good, just against higher skilled opponents, most of the time it ends poorly.Originally Posted by Orderly_Chaos Go to original post
yeah, i agree with this. i see bad lawbreakers and good ones. i have not seen evidence of needing a rework whatsoeverOriginally Posted by Orderly_Chaos Go to original post
