    Conqueror Shield Bash too fast

    As the title have said. The conqueror's shield bash is too fast. Some needs to be dodge early some you need to wait. Plus the light spam is also fast for the reflex guard and unlike the aramusha it can go randomly on any direction. I tried against a level 3 bot and it's shield bash is just very hard to react. Dodge very early and it will track you. They can also feint an attack into a fast shield bash which is a 50/50. No wonder the conqueror is on the top tier list now.

    Conq's forward bash has to be dealt with on prediction. Unless you're a hero who has access to a delayable dodge attack.

    I'm practicing against a conqueror because it's hard to react on the shield bash. Playing against a level 3 bot should help me but with all the random movements the shield bash is just really hard to react to. Anyone also having this problem?

    The bash is kind of OP right now. Way to safe, way to much range, way to much tracking and minuscule recovery frames on miss.

    I'm OK with its speed, the problem is that its far too safe on account of its incredibly short recovery time.

    As a WL it's unpunishable, I dodge it and all I get is the satisfaction in knowing he wasted a bit of stamina 😒

    However, with the coming side dodge normalizin of the cast I'd imagine a nerf will be incoming next.

    I honestly don't get why you people keep complaining about it, I main conq and get punished by most of the roster.

    because it's way too safe. If you successfully dodged it and delayed a 100ms on your gb. They can cgb it. Plus it's like a light attack when it comes.

    It's not too safe, you can get GB'd if they dodge without u going heavy cancel, or light attack interrupt if the heavy cancel is in effect.
