    I main highlander, yea and i can tell he even need some move or buff on his deff stance.

    Im talking about 1v1, cause nothing else cannot be balanced. Here is tons of uninterubles, unblocables etc. And Highlanders deff stance is garbage in this staby staby spamylights game.

    Give him 1 hand "push" enemy away with fastflow to off stance. No damage, no guaranteed damage after "push".

    And rolling back still evades both the kick and the toss
    Hmm, unfortunatly see couple times (on PC), how HL just grab someone in rolling back. And warden now haven't any chances to dodge this ****.
    It's all cause of "improve tracking" I suppose. And it's terrible like all balance changes in S5.

    Highlander cannot grab you out of a roll. If he grabs you then it's because you rolled way too early or tried to roll away too late.



    You're welcome.

    Here's a better solution: don't guarantee a 40 damage heavy on getting kicked. There's no other character in the game that guarantees a heavy attack on a simple bash, much less one for 40 damage. Give him a guaranteed light attack that doesn't take much stamina, so that he'll be in line with the other characters.

    Feels like absolute bs to have a bash/grab that comes out as quick as a Conq bash and does so much damage. Could you imagine the uproar if Conq, Valkyrie, Warden, Kensei, Lawbringer, or Gladiator guaranteed a heavy on bash?

    Oh... ok... again, highlander have to be in off stance (when he have NO DEFENCE to hit or GB).Then he can perform kick. Can u tell me some other hero have such big risk to perform like highlander to do "bash + hit" combo? BIG RISK = big reward if im correct...

    Say why you want but he is a bs character. Infinite unblockables coupled with an unblockable kick that feints into an unblockable throw that gets a guaranteed unblockable heavy is just f’ing stupid. Then add into it his uninterruptibles and it’s stupid. If are not a great parrier, then you have no chance. But you know. It does make sense though. As brain dead stupid as Ubisoft is, it only makes sense that they give a character the moves they gave Highlander. But hey, Centurion with his GB into wall splat is OP but this d-bags unblockables and uninterruptibles and his hyper armor are just fine. Got it. I look forward to the day when Ubi doesn’t have their heads firmly lodged in their own a****s. The game will be much better then.

    Typical... "say what u want but im mister /missis universe so Im right..."

    Unblocables = Highlander have to be in off stance and if u cant parry 800ms attack, its pretty bad (and btw, i dont know its just me, but when enemy holds big weapon, its easier for me to parry,then enemy hold tiny axe like shamans)

    Guaranteed damage = Highlander have to be in off stance, so u can light him or make some bash, dodge attack etc to keep him out of off stance

    Hyper armour = what option he (or devs) to give some slow as hell heroes? Every assasin or fast hybrid can perform light to "counter" heavy without hyperarmour...u have rly hard time against shugoki right?

    Hello McFly. Learn to read. What part of “if you aren’t a great parrier” do you not understand? You still have to have timing down in order to parry the attack. But also to have the kick feint to throw get a guaranteed 45 is ridiculous. If you don’t have the timing down perfect, you can’t escape it. As far as options go, there are other hero’s that don’t have half his options.

    It was more of a conversation starter to fish for opinions.
