Are you ever going to grow up and not be a pathetic whining and immature baby??. Centurion is mediocre only good against noobs, but that’s 90% of the hero’s in the game not our problem you’re only solution is coming on the forums and blasting down the devs and any post about him. They should ban you completely from both the game and the forums maybe you’ll shut up.Originally Posted by David_gorda Go to original post
Noob spotted. An unskilled player who when loses a game cries and declares that this character is OP. Seriously, centurion is good as a noob stomper and as a support. I've fought and played as a cent and he isa B tier.Originally Posted by David_gorda Go to original post
Well, a "Noob stomper" still isn't a good character idea. I'm fairly new at the game, only a rep 17, and I really enjoy this game, but a character who can take all of my stamina away and then take half my health away with one combo is somewhat annoying. I don't want a nerf on Cent, just a slight rework so he could not only decent to play against for new characters but also doesn't rely on mostly one combo. I want to enjoy this game, not always be forced to try hard.
Don't let them trick you into thinking that you are noob based on excuses they are making for most broken turd of a hero. Because guess what? Most of of the players actually play Centurion as one of top 3 heroes they use.Originally Posted by WhydoIdothis21 Go to original post
Fact is, lobbies are full of Centurions even when all of the players are higher rep, like over 100. If it is such a poor, weak hero, why they are so many of them?
Because they can cheese their win so easy. All it takes is just one parry when your opponent has 2/3 or less stamina. And you are done. They maybe imaging in their heads how good players they are, but they are just a bunch of cheap, cowardly 13old tryhards. Nothing more. Because there is nothing skilled about doing one parry after your opponent stays with no stamina and with almost half of health taken away. Fight is over unless you are top class player or very lucky.
Centurion doesn't actually fight. His sword is barely used unless it is a cut scene or call it animation if you will. It is like watching a movie. He was supposed to be the guy who crashes defensive player but instead he became worst turtle of them all, second place goes to Aramusha hands down. So instead of fighting like a man, he can just block and pick up one parry. Game over.
I wouldn't mind him being something like Warden or even Kensei. Someone who actually has to fight to win, who has to swing his sword. He deserves rework that would make him that kind of hero.
But to buff him in his current state with current move set? That would be suicide. I would leave the game right away because developers would continue to show bias towards certain heroes such as Centurion or Shaman.
Unfortunately I am not sure he will ever get the more serious rework because someone at Ubi who really likes Centurion would automatically admit that he was created in a wrong way to begin with. And trust me, ego is a strange thing.
I haven’t touched my centurion much since his nerfs. He’s B tier at best, but no one ever said his design was bs hence why we say “ he’s a pretty good noob stomper”. If you’re as bad as I prob think you are, you have bad reaction time. Kick is easy to dodge, punch is easy to dodge, telegraphed Asf lights. Low DMg heavys tho 2nd chained heavy is fast. Heavy into guardbreal is easily countered especially wen every centurion does it.Originally Posted by NHLGoldenKnight Go to original post
Fun fact: in order to do a combo you need a charged heavy. Not a parry. Because giess what? The punch after the parry is dodgeable. It cannot be cancelled to gb. And if the cent attacked you can still dodge it. Easy peasy.Originally Posted by NHLGoldenKnight Go to original post
I used to have a lot of issues with Cent, so I played him until rep 11, now I know exactly how he works and I can shut down most Cents in 1v1 no problem.
You only need to block everything, and be ready to CGB at all times, forget about parrying, just block, dodge and CGB, you don't need to parry him.
Block until he fully charges his jab or punch, then dodge those, he won't be able to do anything unless you dodge too early and he grabs you.
Once his heavy turns into an unblockable it can't be feinted and is an easy dodge or parry. Charged punch cannot be feinted either.
I think if people understood his mixups they would have far less trouble with him.
Sadly forum posters like him still exist. Your best bet is to just put them on ignore and not respond to them at all.Originally Posted by WalrusApproved Go to original post
That's what I do anyway. Made my forum experience here a lot more palletable.
