    Very very poor game design in Nobushi IMO because she dominates over half the characters in the game, but is balanced if not disadvantaged when up against a well played assassin.

    I can understand a little "rock, paper, scissors" mechanics in a game, but she's super scissors against two thirds of the character's paper. And the rocks are fairly soft rocks...

    I don't think she is ovepowered in the traditional sense but just really really poorly balanced into the entirety of the game.

    It would be like conq if 7 out of the 12 characters in the game played like zerker...
    Ok ... I can deal with that. I change my statement from overpowered to very, very poorly balanced.

    But ... that's actually not better ...

    Peacekeepers are usually more annoying, but I don't lose to them too often either.
    Nobushi don't give me too much trouble either. The most annoying thing about them is that they can poke you way too easy, but as a Valkyrie main I should learn to be able to take my own medicine. Then there's the fact when you parry them they're too far away to guardbreak, but that's fixed by unlocking, sprinting toward them, and guardbreaking. I don't lose to Nobushi very much.

    I can tell you who I lose often against -
    Berserk. Those guys are insane. One of these days I hope I can practice against a good one so I can figure out a way to beat them.
    Your telling me your losing to a Berserker and not a PK when berserker litterally has NOTHING better than what PK has and is the weakest class in the game? you probably need to learn to parry better.

    The berserkers light attacks are very strong and fast. If you don't manage to get out if their stager, you will be spammed to death. Remember. Their light attacks become uninterruptable with the fourth hit and you can not parry, while recovering from a blow. The time windows overlap.

    The perfect spam is not easy to achieve but after the fourth attack, its over - except the zerker gets low on stamina.

    The people who claim Orochi isn't that bad, tend to be players who main classes that can handle the orochi's speed. I Main Lawbringer and that will not change. Before you denounce our claims try fighting an Orochi with a Lawbringer, I think some of you will have a swift change of heart.

    I feel like this is one of the most glaring issues right now. The Zerker unstoppable quick attack spam against slow characters is very real considering their recovery time in between the hits isn't fast enough to block the next quick attack making them stun locked potatoes

    It's not even worth fighting assassins as the lawbringer which is a shame. We need a buff

    I would say, whole samurai team, (ok not the lady with that long ****ty weapon....) has to much unrealistic moves, like in a manga...
    I cant use my abilities as Peacekeeper.
    The viking with 2 axes is also a spinning annoying champ...HE IS JUST SPINNING AROUND ALL DAY....fix this.
    And the throws and guardbreaks are to strong, all charakters with shields are unblockable in normal attacks, and faster than combos with then my girl, so why should i play a assassin when she is slower then everyone in combos ? BUFF PK, in closed beta everything was fine...
    THEValkyre is toooooo strong, guardbreaks only...GUARDBREAKS AND UNSTOPPABLE ATTACK SPAMMING ONLY...
    GIVE THIS GAME MORE Than 1 Combo Spam fights...that sucks, there is no competition anymore....Noobs are winning with **** like this...
    Easy CHamps should be weaker...Hard champs should be stronger...
    Nerf Samurai...

    BUFF YOUR MATCHMAKING.
    Buff the switch from fightmode to no fight mode...it takes to much time if you dont roll out with doublespace...
    This game is nice, but need a lot of Patches!
    sry for my bad english...
    THIS IS NO FLAME...

    Well. Potato is too strong. Its not your fault if your are beaten by a broken mechanic and you are not able to guess the third light attack right (you can not activity block the second, if the attacker does not attack the blocked side). If you don't stop the chain with your third block, its over. You can't parry in time and a block will not interrupt the zerkers chain - you will only take no damage from the attack.
