Wardens Light attack is way to fast | Forums

[Streicher.M]

Well how the title says Wardens light attack is way too fast.. compared to other heros with lighter swords they are slower and it's at least possible to block it but warden?
What the hell is this? I dont want to hear comments like train your reaction time or something like that.. it is too fast and everyone who ever fighted against someone in higher lvls will know what im talking about.. leave your commen about what you think..

Right its fast but not unblockable/unparryable, his zone is fast af but still not unblockable/unparryable and im gonna have to say get in a custom match with a friend let him play warden, let him use his lights and ZA. Get used to the timing and voila.
Today I also beat a Warden ofc parried his top light what gave me the victory.

The main problem with Warden is not that he has a really fast high light attack, it is that he also has a lightning fast Zone attack as well. This means you cannot block either reliably due to the speed at which they come out.

Add this to the fact this his shoulder charge being able to cancel is so obscenely OP, because you have to side step to avoid the charge, but if you sidestep and he decides to cancel into GB, you can't break his GB because it was during a sidestep. That is guaranteed. Rinse and repeat.

He needs his zone attack made slower and the GB cancel taken off his shoulder charge and then I'm fine with him. No character should be able to cancel a charge into GB (not just a Warden issue).

I should note, I main Warden and Orochi mostly so I'm saying this as someone who likes the character, but I think the options I have are unfair compared to other characters.

His zone attack burns stamina like honeymoon.

And they deal a very little amount of damage.

His zone attack is faster, has more range, more damage and cost less stamina than an orochi for comparison. If that is your justification it's not a very good one.

but the Orochi can run away better and faster than the Warden, tho.



Seriously, tho: The Orocho is more mobile and faster all around than the Warden, though.

Seriously? Have you played against orochi's? They actually have fast light attacks.

[cyNickalCyn]

Have you actually tried playing the Warden against any of the AssAssin types? You wouldn't be complaining about wardens otherwise...

Just to clear something up: The Warden's longsword weight wouldn't be much of an issue. On average a longsword would only weigh more than a katana by 1-2 pounds, and would be lighter than the Kensei's Nodachi.

Mobility means nothing in a duel where all top tier players parry. You're trying to justify an attack using a whole class as an argument. The warden has overall faster attacks than an orochi himself. The side attacks are the same speed as a warden. The top light of a warden is faster than an orochi top light. On top of that fighting an orochi means he will gaurantee attack from the top which in turn will give a warden crushing counter. Please stop this kind of justifying, its annoying when people claim classes are op when they really aren't. The only classes that are op currently are peacekeeper and shugoki. Peacekeeper as well attacks way too fast and the shugoki is unbeatable against certain classes that can't follow up with a second attack quick enough to break his armor.
