    Fighting Highlander tips.

    More Specifically his kick into caber toss, does anyone know the timing (if there is one) to this? It gets me every time if I'm not playing as someone who has a side dash attack.

    Its basically a 50/50 to avoid the grab you have to dodge after the kick would have hit you unless you get lucky and avoid it like how you used to.

    Hi there, Highlander rep 12 here. Everythink u have to do against kick feint grab is late dash. And then Highlander is open to free GB. Late dodge provides u 100% dodge of kick even if Highlander dont do feint to grab. Problem solved. Every enemy i play against and he ask me for tip, i show them this and can practice. So stop complain about highlanders "great buffs". I main him before patch cause his unique and brutal playstyle. Nowdays he is maybe one of perfect balanced heroes if whole For Honor.

    Highlander rep 7 here. As stated by Kahuf you can dodge both pretty easily if you just dodge late and also: there is absolutely no 50/50 in the game except for a couple of UB heavies while OOS. All other “50/50” to include kick into caber toss, are all 100% stoppable by a simple well timed light attack. This is further made easier by HL obvious stance change, even into instant flow.

    Rep 16 HL, I agree with the last two above me, just dodge as late as possible on the kick. You panic and dodge too quick and you'll get nabbed.

    Dodging as late as possible is the key.

    Lol. Yea. He is real balanced. The guy can run an infinite unblockable combo on you. He is the real noob destroyer. Then add in the kick feint grab, and you got yourself a character that is easily one of the best in the game. Unless you are extremely good at party’s, you have no chance as you can only get away from unblockable for so long.

    You said it yourself, he is a noob destroyer. A game can't be balanced around noobs. So l2p issue.

    I really didn't mean for this to be a "he's op" war, but I guess I should of figured it would go that way. I don't think he's op, was just wondering if there there were any tips for dodging it is all. Thank you for the constructive replys!
