Raider is OP in 4v4 | Forums

[CaptMcButtLovin]

Raider is crazy op in 4v4 but duels are pretty challenging. Is this everyone's experience? I have over a 4.0 KDA ratio in death match and dominion modes, with a win % over 70...but duels are around 50 with a 1.3 kda atm.

What is everyone else's stats?

I have similar stats. He's not OP in 4v4 but he definitely stands a better when he can run in and get a free heavy on an unsuspecting opponent. In duels he is too slow and predictable.

The quality of opponent is generally higher in duels. That's probably what you're experiencing.

I'll admit that duel opponents tend to be better at 1v1's obviously, but everyone's advice is just "you need to learn to feint". Buddy im here to tell you that against a raider, you dont need to parry or even dodge. just light attack. you will hit first. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. and theres literally nothing the raider can do about it. the only people i can beat in duels are the ones that are unaware of this fact.

If the enemy is light attack spamming you just parry it.

That's not to say the raider isn't weak, he is, but he's not useless like so many people claim.

raider is one of the worst for 1v1s and is ok in 4v4 when you run around trying to chop people in the back with unblockables/heavies, but also cuz 4v4 is generally much more casual and full of nubs and casuals that hardly try to defend against the raider when hes choppin at ur back.

The Raider is a monster when it comes to Dominion or Skirmish, you do NOT want to get smashed by a Raider's heavy attacks in these games. Love playing my Raider in these modes but hate playing him in Duels.
