The Lawbringer is too much now. They're busy nerfing characters and then the Lawbringer happens. You can't really nerf while this tank of a thing exists. All i have to say is one thing: Shove. The free hit on block is what breaks LB. Because he has 4 ways of initiating Shove.
1. Dodging into you and Shoving.
2. Grabbing you and throwing a Heavy, combo into a Shove.
3. Simply blocking an attack and Shoving.
4. Get parried, LB lands a Heavy, Shove.
Now i get it, he's supposed to be a counter character and all. But seriously, this is a bit much. I thought Ubi didn't want to reinforce the Turtle meta, and they literally just embraced it with open arms and now everyone just plays LB and cheeses the hell out of you unless you're a specific class. It's absolutely crushing to me and has actually made me stop playing. I know they made it easier to dodge the shove in the patch coming later on, but that's not enough. until this is addressed in a better way, i'm not playing For Honor anymore. A shame too, if you check my Youtube channel i have HOURS of footage of me playing the game (mostly Rage Quits my friends love them for some reason idk why) Complain that i'm a scrub or whatever but i made this post to show Ubi and the community the ridiculousness of LB. (Even though most of you know)
Gotta use feints, my friend. Watched your video, good fight. You both showed some skill. But the only thing you canceled was your hurricane move and you did nothing with it. Start feinting your combos too. And use your zone attack - it's once of the fastest in the game.
Also, shove doesn't guarantee a hit.
@King_Duncan_VII Thanks for the tip, I started playing Orochi not too long ago so i have no idea what's at his disposal. As for Shove, yes you are correct. It doesn't guarantee a hit. Yet. In the upcoming patch (PK Light spam Patch) The shove will be a guaranteed hit on shove. That's why i said that instead because it'll soon be the norm. Unfortunately.
Not a guaranteed hit, I think it'll be dodgeable, parryable and deflectable? Problem is if you dodge lb can gb u and you cant cgb it. So its a 50/50. Can be abused.Originally Posted by Gamerlord08 Go to original post
The key is to dodge backward if he ever connects with a shove. You avoid any combo and avoid being grabbed altogether. But you have to be fast.Originally Posted by Cito2009 Go to original post
