    Parrying - Question

    This is not a complaint by any means, more so I call upon some of the community for tips. So I have been consistently parrying (more like a 50/50 chance its successful but still a huge improvement with each hero I go up against nonetheless) but question is, my dream is to eventually be able to parry comfortably, both normal attacks and unblockables. But the one thing that has me stumped overall is centurions kick. To parry this, do I need to react by guard breaking in time? And secondly, are there any other heros that have this unblockable attack icon that must be parried with a successful guardbreak?

    You can't parry Cent kick because it's not considered a normal attack. You have to dodge it or you can interrupt it if you are fast enough. Never tried interrupting it people usually dodge it.

    There isn't an unblockable in the game that can be countered using guardbreak.

    Here's a list of moves that are unblockable and cannot be parried:

    • Valyrie's Sweep
    • Lawbringer's Shove
    • Centurion's Kick
    • Gladiator's Toe Stab
    • Warden's Shoulder Bash
    • Conqueror's Shield Bash
    • Shaman's Pounce
    • Highlander's Caber Toss
    • Raider's Stampede Charge
    • Warlord Headbutt
    • Shinobi's Kick
    • Shinobi's Slide
    • Kensei's Pommel Strike
    • Nobushi's Kick

    Thank you. This is extremely helpful. I was just curious, as GB and those moveset icons are convieniently placed in the middle of the opponents body lol. Much obliged.

    honestly, this is one of maybe two posts I have seen on these forums asking for help, thank you for doing this instead of going straight to the typical rant about "X" hero being OP.
    I wish more players took this route, as the forums would be closer in line with what they should be, a collective group of players building a solid knowledge base and assisting each other in bettering their own playstyles. Again, I cannot thank you enough!

    I'm sorry sir but the forums are for hate and whiny man child rage posts ONLY. This is obviously a thread from an alternate reality that must be shut down immediately before it dismantles the very fabric of the space, time continuum!
