Testing Grounds - List of Fight Changes - August 29 2019 | Forums

[The_B0G_]

Gladiator is a perfect example of this game being balanced for PC, this is going to be absolute cancer on console.

[EvoX.]

Centurion looks so incredibly half-assed and bad... I really hoped and thought he'd be a model rework, but I'll save my rant and obligatory goodbye thread for the 29th.

What a joke.

personally I am happy warlord got anything but if I had to nitpick something it would have to be his full block first and foremost block and stab the problem is it is not guaranteed against all the assassins light attacks and against static guard heroes who threw an light attack on their left.

warlord has little to no moves that force a reaction yes he does have that headbutt but nothing like an unblockable heavy attack, soft feints or strong 50/50 like shugoki, warden, raider.

[ImainWarlord]

The only good thing I see about the warlord update is the faster hyper armor activation but that is it. Is that all you guys were able to come up with? Is there another update coming a month later or something? Cuz so far the update does nothing to fix the warlord problem.

Where is the full block update? Where is the dmg increase? 1 point dmg increase overall? Do I need to turtle myself to victory still?

increase the jump attack dmg to 50 and add a unblockable property to it. as it is, is extremely difficult to use it as part of a mix up combo/faint attack. Is way easy to parry and with a high risk of loosing your stamina.

Add superior block to 2nd light attacks and to all heavies.

Make heavies faster or the 2nd heavy add unblockable property. It will give us a incentive to use heavy >>heavy more.

Make zone attack a bit faster and to compensate decrease its range?

Faster recovery after. Miss headbutt. And to compensate maybe decrease dmg. To 10-12. Even if someone decides to spam it, it will deal low dmg. It will become a pressure tool rather than the main source of dmg.

Normalize top light to 500ms

We need a unblockable >>GB game like other characters.

[ArchDukeInstinct]

The testing grounds is their opportunity to test things without disrupting the main game, so why do they have all these weak, insignificant changes for Gladiator and Warlord?

[ArchDukeInstinct]

Centurion, who should be the star of the show, seems to have gotten robbed big time as well.

[Vakris_One]

Everyone will have it automatically, it's within the main game. It'll be kind of like an event playlist accessed from the worldmap.

Will we be able to create custom matches in the testing grounds for Duel, Brawl and Dominion?

[Meanpie13]

I actually really like these changes. I really wish Glad's zone was less safe and he could actually start a chain after his punch.

[MrB3NX]

Stefan Jewisnski strikes again with no mercy on our favorite heroes , Killing a new hero every month is now his favorite habit .

[p0wn3rki11]

I honestly expected a lot more for cent, like new moves or something. I am interested to see how these changes play out when the whole thing hits testing grounds. On the whole i think people expected more for this round of testing, but hey, that's what it is for right?
