I dont really know how it works, but maybe some of my words will be heard by devs.
I always ask - why there is no real sword master in for honor? The idea of character is samurai sword master, using Japanese traditional technics - using sword in sheath to deal light hits, and long-prepared, but rapidly striking heavies. Also there is soft feint in the light hit during the preparing of heavy hit. Other mechanics could be added, but that is the main idea. Hope u would at least read it)

No need to listen to theese. Bashmaster or swordmaster, important is, that it would have some original idea, appearence, weapon and most importantly MOVESET. Your raw idea seems to be quite interesting, yet you must not forget, that samurai are only missing next Vanguard class to fulfill whole new set of heroes. And as typical Vanguard, your hero should be easy to use. Come up with a name, visage, interesting original weapon or set of weapons, moveset and feats. A lot of work, but may interest more people, if so.
In reality newer players like myself, didn't even understand i was in opposition to High-Rep players or maybe knew what Rep actually intended on the time. The tutorials video's are terrific playting steps as you can see guide however some matters a player reveals out thru casual sport play honestly isn't defined.
