    People complain about "turtle" meta so ubi listened

    Not the best player nor the worst, somewhere in the middle. Played about 50 games an 7 were "normal" fights, won some an lost some games, an it was an unenjoyable time. Didn't matter what character it was, all they threw was lights an an occasional guard break. Wow really fun right? No such thing as a "turtle" meta, people are just good at blocking, stop being mentally deficient. I just sit there an block an once there out of stam they ran an repeat, I got a few light parries. But still throw a heavy an let it fly or feint it into something or actually play the characters kit. I know it doesn't affect the top players because there are on aderral or something. But it screws a bit with the higher middle an lower skill base. I just wanna know if people are experiencing the same s**t. I think it was bad on ubisoft part to make lights faster, what you think? I know ubi can't appease everyone an I understand that, but I just more variety then light, light, light, guard break, light, oh s**t I'm out of stam, dash back, dash back, full stam, repeat. I became a highlander main just to counter strike everytime I go against someone who just throw lights an I'm starting to really good at it. I waiting to hear some of your opinions, an some funny criticisms.

    i feel you man. this game is pure skill and people tend to whine all the time. the devs still should do some tweaks here and there, but every hero is pretty well balanced. its just mind games, and feints. i beat good conquerors even with a peacekeeper. same not the best not the worst. its just pure skill and mind games

    Hero's are not balanced... some hero's are far and away better than others. Wu Lin laps most of the old cast in their kits.

    I’d love to see you play peacekeeper in a platinum ranked match and beat a conqueror 🤣. You know what, I’d settle for a mid gold ranked match
    (I did get into plat this season playing peacekeeper, but I also had to work twice as hard)
    Even to our mind game as a peacekeeper in this season is incredibly difficult compared to every other character. She’s now got the lowest pick rate across the board for a reason.

    The defensive/turtle meta was more of a thing before the parry changes we made (specifically to address that meta). I don't see many people use the term anymore.

    PK's definitely being looked at, she was probably over-nerfed.

    It’s not just an over nerf though. I mean I was watching old clips I had and yeah she did a crazy amount of damage when I put sharpen blades on (I also had my gear kitted to do almost 25% more attack damage though) so yeah she most likely needed a damage nerf, but her stamina nerf was too much.
    And if you could relay that pretty much everybody who doesn’t despise her across the board is asking for her to get some kind of bash, a 50/50 or at least one unblockable.
    Honestly she needs an opener more than anything. It’s been said a million and one times. “She’s just a worse shaman”

    I can relay this feedback to the team for sure. I believe it lines up well with a few other threads I've seen.

    Thank you, Insulin.
    I’ve seen it in other threads and other forums. They’re not always good ideas, but I think everybody agrees she isn’t in a spot that would necessarily advocate for a more aggressive fighting meta.
