Now that cents dead, who's next? | Forums

Gotta admit, I've got zero sympathy for Cent mains. Like I had zero sympathy for the Warlord mains last patch.

I've only ever mained 2 characters; Berserker and Highlander. Neither hero has ever been better than mediocre/average, the Berserker in particular has been neglected for months, and the Highlander could use a bit of attention as well.
Both heroes are also quite hard to play.

Even so, I've persevered. I've always had to work harder with these characters and I just accepted their shortcomings and ingrained difficulty level because those were the heroes I wanted to play.

So when people start complaining that their Cents and Warlords might not be the absolute powerhouses they have been since they launched for a little while, I almost can't believe it.
The Centurion in particular has had such an outspoken and polarizing effect on the entire For Honor community, and as far as I can tell, most people agreed he was just not fun to play against. And he's been this way since day 1.

Lets have him be a bit weaker for at least 1 week, good grief. Kensei mains have suffered longer than that, if they can endure, so can Cent mains.

Well I can't really say I feel too bad for cent players. They were already getting easier to deal with (given that most of them I've ever run into use the same exact method of attack every single time) and with this patch I expect we'll see less and less of them every day. It's kind of like what happened to conqueror; there used to be so many and now i'll be lucky to see even one in an entire day of matches.

Who knows, maybe this'll give cent players incentive to actually start thinking about mixing it up instead of relying on their one cut scene to do all the work for them.

still though, no sympathy here. Pretty sure the only cent mains that aren't worried about this are the ones who don't need the cheese to win.

You might have a point if not for the fact that they nerfed everything except his "cutscene" wall-throw/light-parry-punish. If anything, you're going to see even more of it.

The cent is not dead, the cent players however...

See? We can agree on something. My problem with this whole deal is that they changed everything except the one thing that need changed the most.

So the centurion still has his majorly imbalanced strength in both 1v1 and 4v4, but now his weaknesses are greater.

So the centurion was already pretty weak outside his two big combos, everyone complained about those two big combos, now they’ve nerfed everything but those combos, and the disparity between his strengths and weaknesses are even greater.

This only results in centurions that turtle more and gank more. I don’t think this warranted such a long wait to be “balanced,” and I don’t think this will fix any problems(though I agree that the stamina damage was too high).

Hahaha, awww Cent players are weepy. Should have spent your time practicing on legitimate characters instead of abusing broken mechanics. 0 sympathy. Go on to the next exploit character. Or quit. No one cares really.

We'll see what happens once the update goes through, but I'll make note of this concern and send it to the team.

His stamina pool needs to be drastically lower.... it's a joke his "give to get" ratio is.
