    Highlander Needs A Tweak

    Before you get all antsy about "Noooooo Highlander doesn't need a nerf Highlander is fine". Stop right there. This is not a "nerf Highlander". Actually, I think he needs a buff, but minus one or two hyperarmor things. Anyway.

    In this video, sure, I got walloped. But, if you can see, the unblockable grab tracks. INSANE TRACKING. If this was Shugoki, he would have missed. Highlander should have missed, especially since I knew it was coming. Either that grab has a huge hitbox, or it tracks like crazy, and that's what needs a tweak. That's insane. I love fighting against highlander, I love fighting against Gladiator, but Highlander needs this one thing tweaked.

    I actually have had some difficulty landing that grab for some reason, even though everyone else manages to make it work almost every time. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but because of that I have to disagree with you.

    No he dont needs any nerf or buff, he have much soft faints which is fine. And he is the only character in the whole game who dont get anything except a light attack after a parry or guardbreak.

    Ive seen the grab launch 10 feet and grab someone, and ive seen the grab go right through the enemies head with no grab. If anything it needs consistency. I always have a had time getting it out seeing as you have to be in offensive. The grab, and offensive are neutralized if you get hit. So most anyone interupts you before you can get it out. If its got a little seeking on it, im fine with that for now. Can still dodge out of the slow *** telegraphed snimation that can be countered 3 ways before its even thrown

    Like I said, I'm not asking for a nerf or a buff. I'm asking for a tweak to that Caber Throw. Now that I've gone up against more Highlanders, that grab will interrupt at the very last active frame where it should hit, and it's a free heavy. The grab travels so far, and it tracks. Yes, I was maybe like 20 meters in gane away from a highlander, I got gb'd, and I was pushed back, and I still backed up farther on my own. That grab as so much range, much farther than Shugoki. I'm not asking for a nerf to Highlander, but Caber Throw needs to be tweaked.
