I played Jiang Jun for almost the entire test except for a few matches and managed to reach Rep 3. That being said, I definitely do not think I have enough experience with him to give much more than an initial impression and things that might need improvement. Jiang Jun definitely deals plenty of damage and is truly worthy of the Heavy class, but like the Shugoki and Warlord his move-set feels limited (I'm in the 3 move combo for every hero mindset). His Sifu poise is definitely needed as his attacks drain stamina a little too much, imo. I know that the point is to go into Sifu instead of feinting every time but it is too easy to accidentally drop into Sifu poise on accident and get slapped. I also thought he was supposed to basically have zones for all of his heavy attacks which is certainly not the case. As others have said, there are times when you think you should hit someone and nothing happens as if there are deadzones in the arc of the attacks. A good example of this is when using a heavy while sprinting, the first attack my hit and kill an archer and the second attack will do noithing to the next guy npc or player. Overall, I think Jiang Jun is a good damage dealer when you can actually land the hits which is his problem.
