Suggestion: Make gb cancelable with light attack and gb counter window longer | Forums

This will make it so that those who have slower reaction times can counter gb at will, reducing those who spam gb to get easy environemntal kills.

At the same time, it makes people doubt countering the gb, because you have a mix up wherein if a player tries countering gb and the opponent cancels with light attack, they get hit.

Thoughts?

That sounds awful.

Guard Break should be good. What you want would make it useless.

How does it make it useless when you can mix it up with a light? The current guardbreak is useless you can counter it on reaction. Given enough time you could even just close your eyes, listen to the gb sound and counter it.

Either a slightly larger window to block the GB attempt.. or make it cost stamina. Simple fix. and doesnt break the game.

But making it cost more stamina and making the window larger will completely make GB useless outside of guaranteed gbs.

considering there is no penalty to going empty on stamina.. costing stamina to use or adding a global cooldown would eliminate the spamming which really is the biggest problem.

But there is a penalty in going empty on stamina. you can't roll or feint. The spamming of gb can just be countered by spamming light attacks.

You can spam light attacks sure and get parried then run outta stamina.. you cant roll or feint.. but you can spam dashes from side to side or backwards, just as effective as a roll.

This game isn't 100% about reacting to what you see your opponent do. If you get the read on them then you will know a guard break is coming and can easily punish with a light attack.
