    how should i deal with new orochi on ps4?

    the best success i have had was with lawbringer because of the shove on block, but with warden, kensei and nobushi I am unable to do much. the light spam makes me cringe. Whenever the orochi spins to the side I have little success in blocking it. if I dodge into the direction of the spin i get hit, if I dodge in the direction opposite it I get hit, if I dodge back I still get hit. If I make the first move in the fight the orochi spins and hits me. If I make the first attack and feint it I can block, or if my timing is good even parry, the attack, but then the orochi just goes back to light spams. to be honest I would rather have fought season 1 peacekeeper. I almost wish I snagged this game for pc on release for more fps

    I play Nobushi as main but I quit especially after Orochi reworks. His light attack is faster that any tool I have. I play Conq now and bait full block stance. You have to play high lander Or Conq or Kensei or zerk to counter him. Even Shugoki is not enough. This is the point game came to. You have to play over buffed heroes to counter light spam

    why would yo take the cause for peacekeeper to be banned in some tournaments and give it to another assassin as a part of a rework?

    Rochi's dodge attacks (aside from riptide strike) have the undodgable property which is that blue glow you see on their weapon when they attack. They added that awhile ago. Zerk has it too.
    Sounds like you just need to pop up the ole training arena and hone your reflexes.
