Black prior should get a buff in few things, like is the only heavy character with absolutely no hyper armor, it should at least get it in tace cor tuum, and other than that his long range tenebris should guarantee a top heavy just like warden charged shoulder bash (wich is a 50/50 guaranteed), to increase people using it, just like the zone attack should get something, maybe not a guaranteed heavy but something more, anyway it should get this two/three things because against a character wich just back dodge and attacks with 50/50 attacks is unusable (warden, jormungandr and sometimes also hitokiri)
My opinion is that HA isn't needed because the BP has the ability to "attack through" enemy attacks. A forward deflection opens the opponent up for a free heavy, and a well timed light will knock aside the enemy attack without stopping. It's not quite as useful as the Conqueror's version, which allows well timed heavies to deflect attacks, but the Conqueror also doesn't have the ability to throw an entire four man team over their head if they time it right. The BP is definitely defensively focused, which may stress the patience of the person playing them. Part of the reason I've been playing Lawbringer lately is because the defensive focused characters require more patience than I am willing to display.
nonsense. He is absolutely fine without HA on regular attacks and already one of the very best heroes in the game. Besides he has the greatest hyper armor of all in the game and it is active during the pancake flip with 100% dmg reduction. Fine tuning some parts of his kit to be more usable (like forward dodge heavy) is a different story
