    Centurion is fine. Shinobi need nurf

    Everyone on here is complaining about the centurion when he has no mf moves. If anyone should be nurfed it should be the shinobi, he moves too fast, has a stamina take away ability and can attack from the other side of the map with his damn weapon. I been using the centurion and **** I get wrecked every time. So don't say ****. Mother ****er has no combos.

    Shinobi takes 3 heavies and he's dead. Two heavies from a conqueror. Shugoki needs a charged heavy and GB > Baseball bat R2, dead. For as low as his health is, honestly, he doesn't deal ENOUGH damage. It's very underwhelming facing other characters. The deflect is very difficult to pull off, and when you do it's usually too fast to think "**** do I hit Light Attack or backflip???" For all the hype, Shinobi is great in 1v1 situations. Read his Body Count description. More renown in 1v1 fights. 2v1 almost always he'll die because of that crazy low health pool. Just imagine when you go up against someone who has maxed stats in attack. You're done for my friend. Also, Shinobi has a true 50/50 by charging the R2. He can either throw it at you for a hit, or get a ranged guardbreak. Which, honestly is slightly longer than a regular standing guardbreak. I've written a long summary on shinobi somewhere on the forums. You should check it out.

    I found shinobi far more punishable than Centurion. And his range attacks are really easy to counter thorough parry or CGB, rsulting in shinobi dropping down. Centurion can deplete your stamina in just a second after you do a pair of attacks. His ratio stamina/damage is too high for that speed, he should be tweaked a bit, just a little adjustment.

    In a pair of weeks we'll have a better formed opinion, but he seems a bit op to me for now

    100% disagree.

    a decent shinobi is nearly unstoppable in duels.

    cents are easy to predict and are easily punishable... shinobis on the other hand...

    lol not sure if troll.

    if you just compare Centurion and Shinobi than Cent is the saver choice.

    most obvoius the health. Shinobi has the lowest health pool by far.
    The ranged GB has no payoff since every attack can still be blocked by the opponent. On Top of that if the GB gets reversed it drops shinobi on the floor.... so its basically a Deathsentence to use it.
    Same for the regular ranged attacks... can be dodged, blocked or worst case parried wich results in another unblance for the shinobi.
    This makes the Ranged moveset of the Shinobi so unsave that its not recommendet to use.

    Now the double dodge kick... really the doble doge doesnt doge **** if you simbly GB. The GB will autotrack shinobi and with his little Health a simple follow up after a GB is Fatal.

    Centurion on the other hand has obviously more HP. so more room for mistakes, but none of his own moves have such a strong punish like the shinobi does.
    He has basically a Warlord Headbutt disguised as a Kick so he does not have to bother with Turtles. OH and if an attack of him gets blocked he can follow up simply by punching wich also does not care for Guardstance, so its another opener for him.

    Also many of his Attacks pin the Opponent Down giving him or potential Teammates plenty of follow up chances.
    So dodging him is not always an Option

    TLDR: Shinobi has way more weaknesses than the Centurion has
