People have cited frame data for light attacks in several threads. But for the life of me it seems like berzerker light attacks come out so friggin' fast. I don't think I've ever parried one.

Maybe on accident.

Could be the indicator comes out later than other lights because I also have trouble parrying his but I can parry valks for days.

Some may laugh but I find Kensei's who spam Swift Strike annoying as hell. Every move I make I have to deal with I-frames and a incoming attack at the same time. I actually die to Kensei who spam this often. I can deal with the Orochi Zypher Strike and PK Reposting Stab just fine but the Kensei Swift Strike just gets my goat all the damn time for some reason.

Everyone has their weaknesses, I'm very bad against centurion but just about everyone else I don't have nearly as much trouble with. He's really only considered B tier so it's not like he's overpowered he just happens to be a good counter for my general play style. I have fairly bad footsies so he's the perfect for capitalizing on that.

I remember rushing a Kensei with my Berserker once, and chaining in to my infinite combo, only for him to respond by doing nothing but Swift Strike over and over again. I continued my Infinite Combo the entire time out of curiosity, and found that even though I was landing heavies as well as lights the Kensei still killed me first.

That's the I-frames on the Swift Strike dodge for you. All he needs is one second for the start up and the I- frames activate and he doesn't need to worry about any attacks (Not that anyone needs it but just in case someone doesn't know "I-frames" stand for Invincibility Frames. Attacks pass through you like you're a ghost.) I'm one of those people that believe I-frames should not be in this game period. If the attack swings in the way you are dodging unless you're an assassin that's gets the deflect it should hit you. Can't tell you how many times I've been frustrated to see when I play Lawbringer (My second after Conq before he was nerfed to hell) and watch my pole axe just... phase through some dudes head.
