    Need some help

    Hi guys I have 3 questions

    1. When I perform running attack (not being in duel mode ) from which side my attack will come ( or which stance my attack will have left , right or top ) ?

    2. Assassins have ability called reflex so their stance returns to neutral after some time . I read that you for very short time when your stance becomes neutral, you can block attack regardless from which side it comes.

    Is this old feature or does it still remains and what is blocking window ?


    3. if I am assassin and my stance is neutral and I press attack from which side (what stance ) my attack will come ?

    1. Depends entirely on the hero. You're a Valk player I think, her running attack comes from your right, so it will display a left side indicator for your opponent. You can just set any bot to do a running attack on you in the Training Arena and see for yourself.

    2. That's not true, once it resets to neutral you're vulnerable to any light/heavy, you'll have to input a guard direction again if you want to block. Standard reflex guard duration is 1000ms.

    3. It will come from the side you last guarded, the side that was active before the block time ran out.

    Thanks for help bro just to be completely sure :

    Lets say I am playing assassin and my last stance was left and it returned to neutral . Now my opponent attacks me from left side . So will I take the hit or will my stance be left and block it because it was left before returning to neutral (or this just works when attacking from neutral) ?

    You'll take the hit. If the guard expires, it's up to you input a direction which reactivates it until it expires again, and so on.
