Unnecessarily overpowered, just like the Centurion, numerous unblockables, and you give it a bleed damage on top of that, why? For what reason? Stop showing favortism and make a balanced game.

Him having a shield with decaying gaurd will always throw me off

I mostly play Hybrid characters so picking up Gladiator is something new, his long range weapon being only used for close range and his small guard windows gets me killed more often than none. But if feels like i have to put in more work with constant mix-ups while HL just swings aimlessly because either he has super armor behind it or its an unblockable.

When I think about it, HL sounds like a better version of Shugoki, slow as hell but who cares you are throwing out an armored/unblockable heavy so you win every trade.

Punch not knocking ppl to ground in revenge, is this intended?

[DoT.ExE2_4]

Well, first thing i did after logging on was to fight the new heros(bot) 1v1s at level 3, and my does gladiator put up one heck of a fight! I can see why his 4 light combo is called the pest now :P So far, no problems with him. He can be spaced well enough so that the zone's first hit doesn't touch you and dang those toe stabs after sheild bash, those are dirty! Still, credit where its deserved, he's really quite balanced and i dont think theres a need to touch him untill we all get used to him first
P.S.someone's reading those names on those bots, at least i think so....

Female Gladiator has the same running animation as the male counterpart. I don't think women are supposed to run like that. This is also the case with Shinobi.

Did the devs decide to not put in the extra work or something? What gives?

So i play against him in a few matches and what i can say is that hes a bit to quick for the DMG he deals maybe tweak a bit the DMG and the toe unbl (why can this kill me lol ) maybe take the DMG from it let it be a disangage tool .

I'll be brief.

He feels too much like you took PK and gave him Cent stuns.

If he has stuns, fine. If he has alot of ungarenteed attacks, fine. But he needs slowed down. That's all there is to it.

Gladiator is a well balanced character, he is not OP, he will be my new favourite warrior.

His unblockable bashes give him nothing guaranteed. His bleed is never guaranteed. except maybe off of a deflect. His toe stab doesn't give anything either unless the person is out of stamina.
Blocking his dodge attacks gives a free untechable GB. Most of his combos simply never happen because they require landing several lights.

You're losing to Gladiator right now is because you don't understand the kit yet. You need to mind game the heck out of your opponent to win.
