The Monk can block attacks with his forearm. Can we have a brawler now please? | Forums

Hell no. Please, no.

Oh wow i approve this thread.
A brawler would be great. And could fit any faction. Viking, knight. He/she could be a heavy? doesnt have to be assassin type. Heavy or hybrid.

Two ways I see this as possible is a dlc hero for the wu-lin that uses the fighting style with fists that shaolin monks use.
Or perhaps a claw based character.

Unless they were some kind of claw/arm-blade, probably not. Though I'm kind of surprised we don't have anyone using nunchaku. It's kinda brawly, as a short ranged blunt weapon.

A rajput with a katar?

It would be interesting to see them come out with a new character that uses something similar to Tekko-Kagi claws, though they would probably stylize them a bit to be more in line with Ninja Gaiden's Tiger's Claw & Falcon's Talon weapon. Though that would be for the Saumurai. For the Knights they could easily get away with Cestus gauntlets. Maybe Emeici for the Wu Lin? it really just depends on what faction they try to make the hero for

Just add Pirates.

Give them 400ms unblockable one hit kill pistol shots. This game is already a straight up Fantasy anyways.

I don't mean to embarrass you in front of everyone... but a shaolin is already in the game 😮

This would actually be fun. Since the start of the game, realism doesn't matter at all too since no weapon can actually damage legit knight armor. Here's the only thing I wonder about the brawler. If he/she is going to use their fist, how will the parry work and will the attacks be unblockable like cent?

You do know that the Shaolin monks don't just use staffs right? They also use swords, their fists, their classic staffs and etc. The whole Wu-lin could probably be just Shaolin with the JJ, Nuxia and Tiandi's weapon and it could probably work.
