Give him some moves and take his spam bullsh*t. Shield, heavy. Block, heavy. Then you have a a microsecond to hit him if he misses an attack or he will block it to. The only thing I can do to him is a legion kick. But all he does is side step it and I get hit with a heavy. He is the Alpha Turtle. The one hit wonder. If you don’t have something to open him up you can’t beat him. He isn’t OP but his defense is stupid.
A centurion player saying "If you don't have something to open him up"... do you realise you have 3 such moves?Originally Posted by Dasteel1974 Go to original post
This is the only way the Conqueror can be played effectively. Yes it's boring to play as and against hence why he's getting a rework as he 's currently a one trick pony.

For Honor is a game of action, reaction, adapt. If he dodges your LK, just dodge forward and don't kick, he dodges and goes into SB, you dodge that, Gb, and then heavy. Use mind games to force actions and then punish. Soft feint heavy into GB, if goes to dodge and SB that, hard feint, dodge, GB. He'll adapt to this and then you're in his head and can throw out some of the moves he dodges and they'll hit, if not, keep mixing up
If it lands, it will get you one hit on most. But if it is dodged the GB is guaranteed. Once that happens then you are somebody’s mercy for at least 1 move.Originally Posted by Charmzzz Go to original post
If he dodges LK then just dash forward? So he GBs me on missed LK so the thing to do is go face first into a Shield Bash? He blocks so well that any attack that is blocked pretty much guarantees a free hit. If a Conqueror plays truly as a turtle then Centurion is pretty well screwed against him. You may as well have a brick wall built around him that is on wheels. It is what it feels like sometimes.Originally Posted by Roseguard_Cpt Go to original post
As others have said, Conqueror is inherently a very defensive hero. That said, that high amount of defense comes at the cost of limited, reliable offensive options. This is why you will see a lot of Conqueror's turtle up in a fight. The good news is that the Conqueror will be getting a rework from the team to help balance him out and give him more options. We don't have any details to share just yet on what changes will be coming to him, but we will look to get that info out to players as soon as that information becomes available.Originally Posted by Dasteel1974 Go to original post
