    [Video] Some of my duel with my LawBringer !

    Hello my friend knight !

    I am at 75% winrate with my lawbringer and i share with you some of my duel.



    You will see in the video some of people ragequit, i don't know why they do this, i let you check it in the video.

    I must add lawbringer is hard to play, even more vs a peacekeeper, i am slow, and i don't think my damage is very strong enough.

    People ragequit because leaving doesn't count as a loss. Which is why, I'm afraid, posting your win rate is completely meaningless. You may not do it yourself, but the fact people can removes any validity of the stat.

    Watched the first few rounds and you aren't too bad. Maybe try throwing in some feints now and then, and be careful with those long wind up unblockables, higher level people will parry them.

    Keep your guard top, bop them in the face with a light every now and then and parry. You have to parry a PK to beat her. So... yeah, good assassins should never lose to a LB.

    Yes i realy think assassin do more damage than me, are more fast than me, more endurance than me, the only thing they don't have is my HP. I hope they balance thing, i am a guys in heavy armor, i shouldn't die that fast versus an assassin, we are very slow. I hope Something will be done about this.

    So overall your fairly okay but there is some overall gameplay advice to give you and lawbringer specific advice I'm going to give you.

    Overall

    1. I personally think you rely on ledge kills a lot and if you rely on it too much it's going to be a crutch to you and you won't really improve and is likely a reason you lost when the oppurtunity to ledge kill someone was not present.
    2. You need to learn and practice Counter-Guard breaks. Often I see you grabbed when you just walking around your enemy which is one of the best situations to just counter guard break. Otherwise you fall very fast to someone who abuses it and will die rather fast.
    3. Don't try to attack when the enemy is on the offensive if your attacks are slower and Don't throw out heavies when you don't have any pressure/they are in a good spot. That would be like christmas to a player who is parry proficient to get free damage and stam drain on you.
    4. When your enemy throws out heavy attacks and doesn't feint much its a good idea to go for parries. I especially saw this during your fight with the warden near the end and against the other lawbringer.
    5. Don't spam your emotes like that please, it looks very disrespectful and taunting of the other player. Lets try to keep this community clean.

    Lawbringer Advice
    1. When you block an attack you can hit Square or whatever your guard break button is to immediately preform a shove. This can be done on any unblockable attack and you do not need to have gotten superior guard to activate it. The only times this is risky is when a peacekeeper or a beserker is going to town with light attacks as you may still take one before the shove connects.
    2. Speaking of shove don't attempt a heavy attack after a shove as currently there is low chance it will connect because our heavies are slow and they have just enough recovery to predict a light attack and get their guard in place if they are quick, which means a heavy attack can easily be blocked or even parried. This is a good way to feint however and get a suprise light attack. Much of our kit revolves on what we can do and how we use our shove
    3. If your opponent is versed in how the impaling charge works and is ready for it, do not use it as you will open yourself up to a free GB meaning you are immediately out of stamina and in exhaustion. Which is a very bad place to be on any character.
    4. Again, don't throw out random heavies and try to switch up how your set your combo as you seem to keep doing the same directions for your combo's. The moment you become predictable and easy to read makes you a much easier target to kill.

    Overall, once again your decent but you need to work more on your gameplay overall. Since this is a couple fights cut from potentially many I can't give you much advice on how you could have done better on duels you lost. Hope this advice helps you on your journey of carnage and destruction.

    Not true, just remember peacekeepers dodge attacks are in the same direction as her and her leap strike is very telegraphed and is immediately parry school time. In addition you can shove interrupt most of her combo's safely and get in either a good guard break follow up or a light attack hit.

    Thanks for all the tips, can you tell me more about the shove ? I know what its like a pushing glowing yellow, but what is the purpose to do it ?

    I can say i have great fun into the game, but i must admit guard break is very hard for the moment, maybe after the patch it will be more easy. The only fight i have 0 fun at all, is vs an orochi and i would say a peacekeeper, they are fast, and they all the time do the same thing, evade, hit me, guard break, hit me. Its just i feel very slow against them, i realy think i have very low chance to win, because of this, the only one i beat is very bad one, or if i use cliff to throw them.

    The matchmaking is very unfair, sometimes i fight real god who are level 6+ prestige, and sometimes level 7 people without any prestige.
