So you are not talking about the bulwark counter but the full block. One can also easily bait that tho like if you do it couple of times the opponent will know that you like to block with ur full block and bait your fullblock for a gb. Also Warlord has faster fullblock compared to BP's isnt that correct. He can also recover much faster

Are my explainatory skills really this bad? No, you absolutely can't do anything about this, you are still in the recovery of your first attack, you can not use guardbreak for a short time, so you can't punish me. This way, I have the ability to completely deny the usage of a certain part of your kit without taking any risk at all. You might know for sure that I will block your heavy and fastflow into fullblock instantly, but you have no way of punishing me for it. I can react to a heavy and just leave my fullblock to block it or counterguardbreak, I automatically block follow up lights, and I reaction flip follow up bashes (with the only exception of Hitokiri's kick, since it is feintable and chargeble, there I must make a read, and I win the matchup because of different things).

Okay I finally understand you and sorry English is not my first language so it took me a while Goat. Yes by that logic Bulwark Stance(full block) on its own is a very strong. As you said It shuts down many form of chain offense unless one has viable chain pressure. Call me crazy but I think the main problem is not BP itself but how the rest of the classes are underlacking. They either need to get rid of the fullblocks or give every hero viable chain pressure. This is not inherently BP's fault but rather how the rest of the classes are lacking. That is why I keep saying all heroes need to be buffed to BP's level.

No problem, not mine either. And yes, I think the same, offense is quite bad for most heroes.
