    Suggestion for making Warlord viable again.

    Its a pretty simple fix. Revert him back to where he was before the giant nerf to him. I get why he was nerfed in the first place because before most of the dlc characters he was on top in duels and pc specifically because of his abilities. But tbh i personally thought he was the perfect character and how others should have been reworked towards to be more like him. But now hes kind of lacking because of the super nerfs you've dealt him and my rep 20 warlord is now suffering from it. The dlc characters are far worse than he ever was. Now in duels? sure, maybe he'll go back to being on top. But why is that a bad thing exactly? it would only be on pc probably but most of your fan base is on console.

    And i heard you wanted him to focus on being a counter attacker? Why exactly? counter attacking goes against everything his kit allows him to do except for his full guard which is completely in the dumpster right now. lol And his unique parry shield bash punish which was also nerfed and kind of useless now too. But everything else in his kit leans towards more aggressive play and i loved that. Conq is already the counter attacker as the heavy role. Hes actually the perfect one for that job. Warlord should just be reverted back to normal please. It wouldnt make him OP or anything either. Not since there are still Cents and Shamans and new and approved Kenseis in 4v4s now, ((Just to name a few characters that do very well in 4s, which is the main game type everybody plays)).

    If you do have a rework for him in the future, i strongly disagree with that move but the least you could do is revert him back so that we can truly enjoy playing with him again.

    I personally don't think going back to that state is the best way for him. The parry counter granting a heavy in 2/3 directions is just a wonky mechanic to begin with, and it would offset the parry punishes if he could land a heavy after a heavy parry. Now that dodge recovery is unified, his 500ms dodge recovery will not come back anyways.

    I did a write up a while ago on this topic. Feel free to add what you think.

    He legit just needs a rework. He should be that annoying and hard to kill harrasser that uses defense to create offense and offense to create defense
