    Shugoki - what he does, and some ways to go around the fat man

    Hey everyone, I've been going around the For Honor forums lately and I've noticed lots of discussion about Shugoki and what he can and can't do, and if he should be able to do what he does.
    Even though my English is pretty "meh" and my video skills are crap, I decided to record a small video to explain a few things, including a maybe not-so-obvious way of dealing with him.
    Trying to give some insight on a good way to fight him that many people don't think about: disengaging from the fight and taking advantage of the speed difference between Shugoki and yourself.

    I go through the basics of his kit, the way he is usually played and the way you can play around him. He is not your typical character and as such, you can't expect to approach a fight with him as you do with some other more straight forward characters.
    Watch the video, I talk about prioritizing removing his hyperarmor and playing with speed, spacing and conditioning.

    PS: I am not a good player, average at best and I understand the frustration some people have with Shugoki. I don't feel that he is OP but is certainly very strong.
    Leave your comments below and feel free to PM me if you want to Also, sorry if the video quality is crap, should still be processing.

    Whats the timing on the headbutt input, for some reason i keep failing on them. gotten it down to about 74 percent on lights but just cant seem to make it work reliably with heavy attack. And any one having trouble with him, just keep an eye on his stamina honest it dosnt take many attacks to drain him,
