    But we already have that in game -- CGB-back dodge. Resets practically every situation to "neutral".

    Most of the times I fall for dumb, in-your-face GB spams is when I get too cocky about my CGBs and don't back out from the position, and then give too much credit to the other guy and think "c'mon.. he's not going to try it a third time in a row, is he?" and let my concentration slip... in which case the 3rd straight GB attempt in a row gets me.... which I have no one else to fault than myself.

    People who need to L2P tend to whine, and they also tend to be numerous -- and balance ain't democracy IMO. You don't need to pander to every ridiculous complaint people make.

    And your only contribution to this forum is to whine about other people.

    It would be great, if you would start to contribute to the community, instead of making it even more toxic.

    Sorry, but people whining about every single one of their L2P problems don't get to complain about others sick and tired of that attitude whining about them.


    Besides, I just did contribute, unlike your endless whining which produced no help in technique at all.

    CGB-back dodge basically does exactly what S0MI proposed.

    What is this cgb back dodge? When ever i try to back dodge, i get grabbed. Are you given invincibility frames for guardbreaks after a successful cgb?

    back dodge after CGB activates before the opponent can reactive GB, and the distance is further than any normal GB attempts afterwards except for shinobi ranged GBs, or if the opponent immediately unlocks and starts a sprint-GB.

    this is actually a good solution man. but i think many players wont like that. as they are GB spamm happy. And they responde is: you can just CGB it. but if that is the case then why use it in the first place ? SMH

    Because it works on noobs and its also guaranteed on recovery frames, parries, dodges, etc.

    And during the start up of attacks - even fast ones. Hard to pull off on 15 frames lights but still possible.

    Not if it's from a follow up of a cgb.

    Other ideas:

    1. No guard break under any circumstances of someone is attacking. The second an attack is initiated, guard break fails. Unbelievably sick of being guard broken while I'm attacking.
    2. No guard break through a dodge. I'm dodging. Not guarding.
    3. No guard breaks at all during revenge.
    4. Only light attacks should make it through a guard break, leading into chains if they can be pulled off. People rely way too much on gb/heavy to win. It's really boring and takes little skill. One parry at the end of a fight and you're done.
