Orochi's Storm Rush into double light | Forums

[Draghmar]

double top lights only hits assassin class after storm rush. other classes can block it if their gaurd was on top before they were hit by storm rush.

Which at most cases never happens.

and orochi only has one attack that can actually catch you off gaurd. wich is his zone attack. other attacks can be recated upon and you know that. so please complain more about orochi so they can nerf him. i mean why not even with his limited moveset he is still considered OP by most. so yea lets nerf him even more until he can only block. and then will be nerfed so he can only joins a game and take abeating. maybe this will make you feel better ? i reall hope he doesnt gets a buffbecause i am sick of players calling him op and he has flicker or op double top lights. SMH

And it's exaclty what he said - you are defending something that is OP because there is no other viable move in Orochi's kit instead of shouting to enforce changes to his whole kit. Flickering is bug and therefore it shoudn't be in the game in a first place. If you're using it intensionally you're just cheap exploiter. Double attacks that's stronger then some of the heavies is already weird and when you connect this with Storm Rush then you get really stupid move. And when the parry changes will happen? Double top will render those changes non-existing when fighting against Orochi.

Still using that crackshi* excuse? "ohh, ohh, this is the only good move we have, and therefore our overall misery justifies something that's abnormally strong".

If I were an Orochi main, I'd really stop defending broken shi* and just staying content with sub=par movesets. I'd rather throw the people a bone, admit to broken shi*, support the fix, but at the same time demand other movesets to be buffed up.

Is this guy for real?

Orochis entire moveset is pretty much limited to two directional attacks which are consistently blocked or parried on reaction by pretty much everyone who played from day one. Gosh, there are heroes like warden or as of now, highlander, who got superior punish on half of his moveset.
If you can't manage to block this limited vanilla moveset of his, I do wonder how you fight warlords or centurions.

Actually those two are easier for me.
And you're also defending broken combo because Orochi's moveset is limited, which is just wrong. You really should read more carefully what he said about that.

Who says that it is broken? The devs, or is it you? Because orochi already got nerfed into the ground since the beta, which made him commit to every telegraphed attacks he makes. And it IS telegraphed. If you get punished by his storm rush, then you threw ailmlesslly your attacks at him, he got back and countered you, actually, you know, being the counter-attacker he is. And please do not tell me that you can't block or parry his storm rush, even in dominion everybody and their dog does that if locked on.
As of now, orochi needs to be buffed to be something more than mid tier, and even the devs aknowledge that by taking feedback from the community. Sadly, the changes, if they decide he is underperforming (which, in my eyes, he is in high lvl play), are slow to come, just like with other Samurai heroes (sad Kensei here).

Can I ask you what your main is?

If u are a hero with non-reflex guard - in other words u are not a filthy and unloved assassin - the top lights are not guaranteed if you guard top before storm rush hits u. Lag is also an issue.

But honestly... it's f***ing easy to parry that sh!t move - or as an assassin to deflect it (if u are a joy-boy).

lmao all people do is complain about orochis top light and zone attack, i wonder why warden has less damage from his side lights, maybe cause you could get either another shoulder bash or a guard break with could lead into even more dmg?? shinobi can double light you from any direction, i dont get why they complain about damage when it only comes from one direction lol.and its funny cause they just nerfed his top light now is season 5 to 22, i hope people stop complaining about strom rush and top light,

It was never guaranteed in the first place. Can block top after storm rush. I now like to think of myself as severe injury by a thousand cuts - only because after I've cut you 1000 times you'll probably hit me with a pommel or something twice and I'll die a very hardworking assassin.
