    [Nobushi] How to anti Warden's infinite shoulder hit and need strategy for Shugoki?

    Hey dude,

    I feel Warden and Shugoki are dominated to fight Nobushi,

    Warden's light attack are too damn fast. And his infinite shoulder hit can reduce Noshuki's stamina to 0 before run out of his. If Nobushi dodges, her stamina will use more stamina than Warden. If she desn't dodge, she will get infinite shoulder hit plus two light attach until death, especially in some narrow environment.

    For shugoki, Nobushi are not able to parry, guard break and heavy attack. Shugoki's range as almost as long as Nobushi's.
    And his passive's cooldown time is short. So he just needs to block/parry two attack. Then he can recover his passive.

    Is there anyone who can tell me how to counter these two?
    I need some strategies.

    Please feel free to share you ideas here.


    Thanks in advance,

    Rep 7 Nobushi here

    There's two way to go about Fight both of them

    First would be to play defensive and wait for an opening. Shugoki is very slow so if you can dodge an attack with your hidden stance into your guard break kick. That usually gives you enough time to put a bleed on him. Same goes for the warden. Wait for 2-3 attacks then try a hidden stance. Kite them backwards and use vipers retreat to keep them at range as well as keeping bleeds on them.

    Second would be to play super aggressive. This may be a bit harder to pull off. If you're comfortable with nobushis speed you can sprint up to them and guard block before they can get an attack off. Flow that up with a heavy attack from your preferred direction and retreat with a vipers bite. Use your dodge to your advantage and use fake out sidewinder forms to trick your opponent.

    If you play on the PS4 you can add me (cstratus) and I will go over everything in detail for you.

    er...yesterday community tournament winner is actually a Nobushi who manage to topple currently one of the strongest warden on UK. The key is to time the mystery stance when the warden are about to charge.
