    Deflect didn't stop Berserker combo

    ...title says it all. I was fighting a serker in Elimination, he was doing the spinny thing, I deflected... and he hit me almost instantly after I did the orochi fast after-deflect attack. Please tell me this was lag or something, because this SHOULD NOT be allowed.

    Also, I blocked a Conqueror's light attack and the moment after he guardbroke me, and I couldn't even counter it. If the orochi recover window doesn't give you enough time to stop a damn guardbreak after a block, something is definitely wrong.

    Well considering some of the berserkers chain attacks makes him uninterruptible so your light won't be enough to stagger him out of his chain. The best option is to parry or you can try hurricane blast when you deflect instead of the wind gust. It also depends on how good the player is, try to avoid head on combat and don't try to beat him to attacks just out minuver him and use you dodge and mix it up with storm rush. (Trial and error, not try and cry)

    As for your conq problem idk about that one perhaps your not timing the counter guard break properly.

    I don't believe a deflect stops a chain in the case of the Orochi or PK.
