    I've seen a lot of crazy tracking video of Centurion attacks. That one is by far the best I've seen.

    Just dodge ROFL.

    Haha really? Got it. Awesome. So uh...how do you avoid that one?
    The sad thing is ... dodging is actually a good way to avoid the damage. The dodge window is just quite small and you need to practice it.

    I'm gonna have to learn the names of his moves to get specific questions out. I've got no problems dodging attacks from neutral, the kick, that dive through the air stab (I'm actually a huge fan of cents that use it, sooo easy for me to avoid it) but there's an uppercut I'm constantly getting hit with. I block an attack, get slammed by an uppercut. Is that dodgeable or confirmed? Am i dodging too early as some people say?

    I'd like to play cent for its kit looks interesting and fun, but it's so freaking broken at the moment I just can't help myself but to despise any cent player.

    It's like fighting against a lagswitcher/soft feint & gb feint spammer who dares to brag the emote hell out after having killing you : I can't find any way to defend so lame behaviors. A game having flaws is one thing, keep exploiting them to secure victory while pretending to be any good is quite another.

    Considering the last tournament results as the many complaints I still don't get why cent is not simply pulled out until properly balanced for game sake. Yet I'm regularly destroying cent players not because cent is not broken but rather due to most players using cent are bad and don't have to bother much for they usually win easily without even trying.

    Fighting a good cent player feels still totally a rip off from top to bottom.

    Devs are probably under orders to keep Cent the way he is (and made him like this in the first place) to sell season passes.

    Just look how they took the Warden off the promotional art (replaced her with Conqueror). Anything for sales; especially their integrity.

    Saying Cent is balanced is like saying Kensei is overpowered.

    Lol, you just describe most "pro player" or top player of For Honor, since most tourneys ended in a spam fest of exploit.

    So they shouldn't be adressed, is that really your point ?

    Whats the purpose on defending him ? He is broken in certain aspects and fine/strong on other aspects. Criticize what's needed.

    My point is For Honor is not rdy to have a competitive scene, since there are so many exploits and glitchs in this game. And I can't call someone Top players when all they do is exploiting the game.

    Well yeah, but we are talking about Centurion now. It's not like we have to excuse a completely broken character because there are "other exploits" too. We talk about other problems on other threads, but the main problem here is the centurion, and the complete ignorance of the devs about it.

    We had to wait a full 2 months before any kind of balance patch, back at the release of the game. So no surprise here, devs have no idea how to balance their game. Can I dare say they thought parrying would be hard, so they never saw the def meta coming?
