In this day in age, the Conqueror has been proven to be less useful than he once was. The Conquerors stance as being the best bully in the game has been stolen from him by the Centurion and his superior skill set. He has been pushed out of the only role he was superior at and must now be fixed so he can fit a new role if he is to survive. My suggestion is that Conqueror be made to be superior at controlling the space around him. There are only three changes that would be needed in order to accomplish this. One is that Conq should receive super armor on his shield bash. This would mean that he would force his opponents to move rather than just stand there and constantly interrupt his shield bash with fast attacks allowing the Conq to better control his space. The second is give him the ability to deflect. I know this one might seem odd, but when you think about the Conqs play style, it makes a lot of sense. In order to deflect, the character has to dodge in the direction of the attack, so in the case of the Conq, it would be another mix up into his shield bash. It would allow him to get himself out of corners and then force his opponents into them like a switch up. (He would not be able to get a guard break from this and the shove would not be a wall stun.) The last change that he should receive is to his heal on block passive. It should heal him less if he is only blocking attacks from a single opponent, but should have increased healing if he is blocking attacks from multiple opponents. This would again enforce the idea of the Conq controlling his space by telling potential gankers to back off. Along with his zone attack, this skill set would be perfect for him to help fend off attacks and help him stand his ground. I am a Rep. 16 Conq and I think these changes would bring him back in a more useful state and not allow him to be bullied so easily and can even help his chances to 1v4. (I've noticed that the Conq has a great difficulty doing that nowadays as compared to other characters.) The Conq needs to be able to do what his name implies, conquer his space and assert dominance if he is outnumbered.
1. let him guard break counter while charging his heavy attack
2. make his Shield Bash GB punishable on dodge by all heroes,
3. give him a free heavy off of Shield Bash
btw the conqueror can deflect of sorts, if you dodge in the direction of an attack its blocked and on the recoil you get a free shield bash, which I might say should be removed honestly
