    When can we expect the Centurion nerf?

    i had to make a topic for that because id like to know how long it takes to gather enough data to realise the nerf is overdue.

    its clear as day how broken he is in any 2v2 4v4 mode. its simply not possible to defend against an external barrage of jabs and kicks.
    combine that with his unlimited stamina pool while he drains the stamina of his opponent.
    then add the ability to snare someone on the spot and render him defenceless for the next incoming attack.
    now we further add the ability to unbalance opponents without to exhaust them first

    And to those people saying hes not good in 1v1 because you can punish his kicks/jabs:

    you think someone with half a brain throws out those moves if he knows how his opponent reacts?
    A decent player knows when and how to use them. its not like you can avoid them 100% of the time (environment hindering you/ recovery on your own moves/ ect).
    Another thing i dont understand is how his Heavys are faster than some lights? Isnt the definition of a Heavy attack to be slow but powerfull?

    By the looks of it nothing will be coming any time soon. I am guessing the developers would rather take there time and find a happy medium between him being good 1v1 and not OP in 4v4 game modes.

    Personally i think his stamina pool needs to be less or his move set needs to use more stamina. This is coming from 1v1. As for 4v4 I haven't the faintest idea what you do there.

    and it really need so much time?

    Do you rellay need so much time while doing nothing for the most played mode of the game?

    It is Ok to balace it in 1vs1 but probably is better to let it became and underdog while finding the right balence instead doing nothing while it ruin the game for the rest of players who dont play centurions.

    The people on PC who play cent even acknowledge the fact that he is too strong that's why they play him... in 2v2 / 4v4 hes a GOD and in 1v1 hes top tier. if you make one mistake you lose 50% of your hp and a good chunk of Stam... you are aloud to make two mistakes vs cent and its GG.

    Also maybe look into how Cent interacts with targets who use revenge. unlike any other hero in the game Cent doesn't care if you revenge or not... he will still knock you down and do dirty things to you while you lay on your back. Maybe don't let him knock you down if you are in revenge but only stagger you?

    I completely agree... if Cent has to be a bit weaker in 1v1 settings to be balanced in 4v4 / 2v2 settings please by all means do it. I understand hes new dlc and we wanna make him strong to develop a solid player base but some heros arent good in any play type yet this guy can be good in both?!? Some heros should be good at 1v1 some should be 4v4 gods, but no one hero should be perfect in every setting or why should anyone play anything but this one hero? Cent is top tier 1v1 and God Mode 4v4 but yet somehow hes not too strong?

    I'd rather the centurion be removed from team modes completely than to continue ruining the best part of the game any longer. He's absolutely rage inducing and completely impossible to react to if there's more than one hero attacking you, not to mention two centurions.

    I hate that a skill based game can take skill completely out of the equation so often when dealing with the centurion and yet the dev team and testers missed it?

    I don't know. I defend this game any time I can, but the fun factor is about half since season 2 started.

    Centurion is fine!
    With Centurion you only have to whait for one mistake from your enemy and you can **** him down to one hp bar.
    Totally balanced.

    Hey, guys. Did you saw cent's gb-cancel already? At first, i thought that was some kind of lag, but last night 2 of 3 cents i fought were doing gb-cancel into heavy few times in every combat. Any comments from ubisoft about this bug? Or is it feature?

    It is a feature. Basically a 33/33/33. Either you get a normal heavy, a charged heavy or a guard break.
