Why do people have trouble with Kensei? | Forums

[CandleInTheDark]

The problem I have with Kensei when playing as a slower class like Lawbringer, is that Kensei can cancel his overhead unblockable so late that I am being punished for reacting to it by trying to parry.

It goes like this

-Kensei goes for overhead unblockable (starts spinning in the air)
-Sword is coming towards you
-Do upward parry
-Kensei cancels and switches to sideway heavy/light
-Your failed attempt to parry changes into overhead heavy and Kensei lands a sideway hit

Yeah I feel that, though I do something similar as the peacekeeper, her three hit chain, a topheavy has her spin around and hit you, I get a kick out of feinting, watching people block top, and she stops then casually moves her dagger to the side and whips them across the face with a side light.

The answer to the OP is really simple: usually, the people who play dominion doesn't play duels. So, they doesnt' know their opponents and rely more on spam the same attack over and over. As soon as they face a decent player, one who knows his stuff, they're screwed.

The ones who abuse feint exploits and 'tech' as they call it are scum, dude above was right to say they make for a terrifying kensei.

Okay come on now you have to be joking. There is no way you are being serious.

In the other thread you said that top tier heroes have NO combos. (They do)


Now you are saying that Feints are exploits?


You can't be serious lol

I think they are talking about the gb faint (exploit) and the light attack feint which is also an exploit (basically when you fight someone who uses this exploit you see him/her do a light attack in one direction and it suddently turns into a light or heavy in another direction and if you tried to parry that light you eat the next attack)
