    Give GB initiator the GB or make them countered.

    As the title describes, I have had many problems with the GB mechanic for a while now and I haven’t seen it brought up recently. Many times when I initiate a Gb the opponent tried to do the same but Just slightly after me: Before my character even starts the break of the guard he is Gb right out of it. If I start the GB first, if at any point the Gb animations would overlap, they need to push off of each other like normal clashes.

    Could you show a video please? I never had any problem like this, my GB always works the way it is intended. I know when I cannot CGB and how to be accurate with the timing.

    I got this issue many times too, but not that often that i made a Video of it. How the OP described, if you try to guardbreak the enemy guardbreaks just a Little time after you and you cant Counter it, ist like your guardbreak disappears.

    I know what you are meaning, but when this happens I can CGB it, I just have to press GB really fast again. Works for me.

    I didn’t make a video of it, I will next time though. I have had a couple times where I’ve mashed the GB when in a crazy situation and it has CGB immediately, but it would be impossible to do this on reaction if you aren’t Mashing the GB button like a maniac, and even then sometimes it still doesn’t cgb. Sometimes you’re just frozen into the Gb animation and the mashing doesn’t even work out. It’s really frustrating. They need to make defined frames which both will bounce of like normal when GB is initiated simultaneously on both ends or CGB. The fact that you can Gb someone out of a GB at all is rediculous.

    Hopefully servers will fix this because it's the lag compensation issue. I have posted about being GB while already doing the GB animation and it's all about connection and timing. Servers should fix this but if not then idk.
