    My Lawbringer final change list (made after 70 hrs of Lawbringer only)

    Alright, after 70 hours of Lawbringer these are like my final thoughts about how he should be adjusted. Maybe all of these will be too much at once but I jot down some potential tweaks:

    1) +8-10 dmg on heavy attacks. He relies too much on them and he has the less damaging heavy attacks compared to other faster characters

    2) Make Shove to put the opponent into more hit stun and/or make Shove has less recovery in a way that prevents the opponent of abusing dashes against him. WHEN TIMED properly dashes can not be punished by GB right after shove which is very annoying. This change will help a bit to improve his signature pressure which is not as viable as pre-patch. Now GB-s are way too easy to counter by just mashing the button. A change like this might lead to a guarantted light after shove - sth which is imo worth testing too

    3) Make a guaranteed rear heavy after Long Arm. The move right now doesn't fee rewarding enough for its properties. Another option here is to just tweak Long Arm itself and make it more usable. Maybe make in cancelable and/or extend its hitbox so that it catches opponents easier.

    4) Decrease the stamina drain from blocked "running impale riposte". It is way too easy for them to block it and if they do you are in a great disadvantage with no stamina right next to them!

    5) Add to his movelist L3+Shove option (similar to Warlord's L3+Headbut). The single option right now he has from running is riposte only and makes it too predictable. Of course, you can stop for a split second after a run and try to shove but it feels clumsy and easy to react to. It might be sth else but it feels like LB should have another option from run

    5) Parry tweaks - make impale riposte from a parry unblockable and make the "unblockable" follow-up a bit faster and/or auto trackable eliminating the option to be as easily dashed as it is at the moment. Make it parriable only. Both of his parry follow-ups (excluding GB after parry) at the moment feel inconsistent, especially "the unblockable" one where the opponent have a lot of time to punish you either by a dash or by a parry. It is not only inconsistent but it also a suicidal imo.

    6) Increase the switch stance speed

    He can "spam" ONLY bad players who can not even counter guard break properly. Here I talk about making LB viable for duels against decent players because he is obviously lacking in some areas.

    P.S. If you are one of these people who have problems against LB, just learn how to counter guard break and that's it.

    1. side heavy after long arm or improved recovery
    2. Increase speed of parry overhead unblockable
    3. make chains uninterruptible since they are so easy to block/doge/parry
    4. Faster stance change so that they can actually defend against assassin R1 spam.

    You are a silly troll. My win ratio on some modes is over 70% with around 3.0 k/d. I not only know how to attack but also know how to make people quit. Kindly ask me to provide video references if you are interested

    The devs themselves have stated that the Lawbringer is strong in group play, but weak in 1v1 scenarios. Buffs will come, but we don't know when, and they may not be as big of a shift as what just happened to the Valkyrie. The devs have to be careful not to enhance the LB too much.
