    Free GB After Parry

    I think that's the reason why the fights in FH aren't aggressive and exciting enough. Remove this ability, please. As it is now it's way too risky to actually throw an attack. The solution would be:
    After a light parry you have a free heavy and after a heavy parry you have a free light.

    GB plays a too big role in the game right now.

    I concede too this only on the stipulation that it is hero specific, removing a GB after parry would be detrimental too certain heroes such as kensei who uses his GB as a chain starter for his unblockable mix up, however I woulndnt cry if the warlord could no long GB off of parry, but as I have said before I don't believe this is the answer too the def meta, I believe the problem at its core is feinting and chip damage, improving feint as a mechanic is an effective way too punish active def i.e parry while preserving its integrity in 4v4 game modes, and chip damage if done properly would punish passive def while remaining innocuous too 4v4 modes

    i'm not saying that parry rewards don't need looking at but can we fix passive def before we start punishing people for playing active def which is the only hope you have of taking on multiple adversaries

    If chip damage is gonna be implemented, parrying should alsotake some damage because it is way too easy right now.

    This is the only good solution I have ever seen

    This is the only thing that I have thought myself and agree with 100%. Kensei doesnt need more "chain starters" he has 3 ways to do them.

    I dont know why this hasnt been implemented when this is an exceptionally great idea. Yet i see the stupidest broken suggestions that would ruin parrys further from other people and ubisost mods comment on them like"good idea" these people are utterly horrible developers and inovating idea creators on top of they take way too long to even take action to change anything and 70% of the time all it dod was break the game even more.

    I agree. GB after parry should go... as for what someone wait Kenai needs GB after parry to start a chain, no. he doesn't need a 100% safe way to start a chain. plus, Kelsey GB allows him to spam GB, too unlockable (witch is confirmed on gb)

    I think the problem is the heavy after GB. Just remove that. You than can still get a heavy out of a GB if you throw someone into a wall. Just make an "empty" throw give you a free light. And ofcourse add chip damage.

    i agree.. GB after parry sucks.. it makes playing passiv to rewarding... but even if you remove GB after parry to avoid the free heavy you will give some Heros an strong buff (for expl.: Warlord / Lawbringer / Centurio) Heros who are already very strong at playing Defensiv.. because all of those Heros have a follow up combo after parry... so you will face Warlords which have opportunity to parry your attacks and still give you a free heavy....

    i dont need you to tell how fast you will come back to the Forum and cry about that..
