    Concern about Fullguard Stance

    As a Conq Main, Fullguard Stance is VITAL to my Offense. It is the only way the Conqueror can feint. Now i haven't run into this Problem because People haven't realized it.
    But with the new Nerf, doesn't that mean, that every time i Fullguard Feint, i am opening myself up for an uncounterable Guardbreak ?

    If so that would be derimental to the Conqueror since, Fullguard Feinting is the only Offensive Tool he has. (That reliably Works). Every other move is very easily punished.
    My Suggestion here would be, to limit Time. A Character in Fullguard Stance, can't counter a GB if he has been in Fullguardstance for 2 Seconds or longer. This will keep People from abusing the Stance against PK/Berserker/Orochi, but sill make it viable for Feinting.

    I know that Feinting happens very fast on PC, and since I am a PC Player, there probably won't be any Issue for me, but it could be hell for all Conqs on Console.

    Alpha Veteran, New Conq. I know my way around the basics, I can pick up any character, read just their basic combos and take off running. Highlander pissed me off but I'm good.

    Conq's shield feint was a small hiccup but I had it down to muscle memory after 2 games, then they released the patch. Screw that. Now I only use it to hard cancel mistakes, I cant follow that **** up with anything because it took the community a day to figure out that free lunch.

    This **** is broke.

    In the short term, the changes to full guard stance may indeed hurt the conqueror. However, we are still looking to make some large changes to the hero in the near future to bring him up to speed with the other members of the hero roster.

    and from what i saw last night while playing was a trick of the eyes full guard stance can still CGB so unless there was some bs going on or the patch is broken.

    I know your working on him. But could you please implement the slight Change so that you won't get hit by an uncounterable GB if you Feint? This makes the Conqs Feinting far more risky than the Feints of and other Class and encourages Turtling again. I understand that the Reworks take some time, but when the Conq Buff comes, i kindly beg you to implement my suggestion, or something similar so the Conqueror can Feint without getting punished for it. It also strikes me as a bit unfair the the Conqueror can be punished for something any other Class can not.

    Depending on the Platform, the Feint just might be too quick for a GB on PC. Since if you Fullguard Feint you usually either bait for a Parry, or you go into Shieldbash/Feint into Light/Heavy Attack.
