POOL - Did the new DLC made the game MORE fun or LESS fun? | Forums

i ment that he fits well in a more aggressive meta forgot to say that

and there in lies the reason for the imbalance, because he is the only one in that meta.

it's not like the rest of the cast play defensively for fun, due to the way they and the game is designed, your best way of doing any damage is by being defensive,
the Centurion breaks this mold, by giving him every tool in the for honor play book to smash through someones defences, and once in be able to combo with no chance of escape until he is done. plus the victim is blind for most of it, and with the ability to let his heavy go when he wants, makes parrying almost impossible.

add to this that they also gave him Parry counters too, that are very punishing, and stamina drain so even if you survive the onslaught, you can't fight back.
further reinforcing the Turtle Meta for everyone else.

the Shinobi is guilty of this to a lesser extent too, he is pretty much a character you can't hit. so you have to play defensive and wait for the mistake. but really the only iffy thing about the Shinobi is that kick, it's very safe and the priority it has over everything make it a bit op, but take away those two things from the kick, and the shinobi is much more reasonable. due to that tiny health pool. meaning he can't afford to make many mistakes.

i don't play domination or any 4v4 , but from what i understand heroes are not limited per players thus u can use 4 cent/shonobi in 4v4, no ?

if so make it like overwatch one hero of that type in the game

less UB/CC , can fix the 4v4 problem until they figure something out

Yes, would be a good temporarely suggestion

I already can foresee the insults between people that want that warlord/warden LOL

However gear once again prevents this type of choices.

When this game was being developed they talked about realistic war and fighting styles for characters. Until the recent update the game was great. I looked forward to the new characters, though I am disappointed there is not a new Viking.
The shinobi character seems like he belongs on Mortal Kombat. He would fit in great with Scorpion, they should even have him yell "get over here!!!" every time he throws that damn blade. How does a 120lbs character throw a blade 20ft and drag my character without any difficulty? The grab distance should only be a couple of feet, and beyond that should not be accurate or effective.
If they are going to make the game less and less real I hope the Vikings get Thor as their next character and he can throw is hammer any distance with perfect unstoppable and deadly accuracy.

Also, the continual crashes that occur in almost every single match now.

If shinobi is controlling any fight, you aren't putting enough pressure on, shin"s moves are awesome but complex and require time to pull off so if you charge the gap and press the action from the beginning of the match he is nothing but a low-health peacekeeper. Two or three decent hits ruins his entire day. If you stay at a distance and fight re-actively, he will own you, its his STRENGTH.

when battling Centurion, you need to be at a slight distance and always ready to sidestep the footstomp. Once successfully dodged he is HIGHLY punishable. This means being aware of your surroundings not unlike fighting next to a cliff because if he gets you into a corner or against an object, you're done, its his STRENGTH we all have those thingies don't we?

Most here would agree Raider is still bottom tier and if I'm able to beat the new characters with relative ease following these simple guidelines with him, then I think you need to put some more time into learing how to capitalize on their weaknesses, no neither of them are OP, just different.

Are you really serious? Do you actually think you should be able to get out of a 4v1 scenario against ANY heroes never mind your back to a wall vs a centurion? You sir are the problem with these nerf threads.
