This is ******** now...Im playing n maining Lawbringer for long long time and all changes was good sure but after corona stuff n some **** behind like (No no rework n patch notes? Nooo we will give ya some new heros n skins! Oh dont forgen to try our new games! You will love them)... Like i said...game bacame a spam bash meta n light fest so its suck n tell me its skill game or noob kid press 2 buttons n win the whole game? Like come on..Warden can bash spam you to death and you can do **** about it...sure you can dodge and get 1 free gb but...then what? They will continue doing thier 50/50 bash spam and trust me...80 or maybe even 90% of players will fail at warden faint...Anyway This it the list lb must have reworked or patched:
-Light combo (Give him one ffs)
-Remove his fck slow movement cuz nearly every bash will catch him while dodging
-He have the slowest heavy in game and after gb changes he is so fck easy to parry n grab at the same time...He is very easy to predict...
-Longarm? Still useless...epic slow even kid can dodge this n gb ya..
-Ultra slow bash...i can say the one slowest in game...(Hey but it have hyper armor!) And what? They can still dodge it n attack you without risk.
Oh and please...where is logic? Lawbringer is a huge dude wearing a heavy plate armor...and he can easly lose his "trade" with for example raider..you know why? Becouse Lawbringer wearing a heavy armor will lose to wearing nothing raider...becouse...and its funny raider have hyper armor...he have fck bare chest fffs...
To be honest...its fck useless hero...sure he can do some dmg n parries to unbashalbe spam heros but thats it...(But hey! We are doing heros for 4 vs 4!) Come on some ppl are playing 1v1 or 2v2 too and its very stupid to go with the same stats... Ubi- you cant do other patches? I mean for dominion n other for normal duels... it will help a lot..and one last thing... You can take his fck high parry dmg but please give him some live or just improve him a little... Hope someone will read it...
Anyway take care all...
I have a lot of issues with some character designs and movesets, but i would say the above "rework" outcry is ridiculous.
Sure, LB is slow. Not the slowest but still. But it has highest healthpool in 1v1 out of all characters.
And if you say that you are maining him.... well after reading the rest im gonna say you are not very good at maining LB. LB is a monster in duels if played correctly.
Warden bash spam? Sure, can be frustrating but is very predictable when happens. Dont dodge, dont go too far away, and poke him whenever he charges it. Or go into your bash which will beat his most of the times if done right. And if you dodge and get "one measly gb", you basically can melt anyone if you wallsplat, or if they are out of stamina.
Being aprried with slow heavies? Feint it. Dont mindlessly throw your heavies. Bait the oponent into parrying them and parry yourself.
Long arm, sure is slow, but its so situational move that its not being used that often. Still, when done correctly, gives you a big opening.
Light combo? Maybe, but its not necessary. Feinting and mixing lights into heavy combo does the job most of the times.
About combos, LB can remove 80-100% of stamina on his combo if he lands top strikes, and does the quick light after combo heavy finisher. And he stuns.
Sure, there are some fights that you cant win, but those are there for any hero. But if i can wreck a one trick pony 40 ranks above me on a champ, without abusing bash, then... well.
Simply chill out, switch character, watch some guides and you'll be good. LB does not need a rework or major changes, compared to other characters.
PS:
Also, first you demand for LB to be more nimble, and later you state that as a huge man in full plate armor (whych by design would weight a lot more than historical full plate) should be a tanky juggernaut. You contradicted yourself there mate.
1st of all his movement speed has nothing to do with dodging bashes, if you dodge at the right time u will always dodge. 2nd he does not have the slowest heavy in the game. 3rd no, longarm isnt that great but it still catch out opponents in ganks. 4th his shove is extremely difficult to punish, if a kensei dodges your bash with an attack you can still parry it. 5th although he is covered in armor it does not mean he should have hyper armor, hyper armor is a balancing tool not just for people wearing armor.
In conclusion everything you have said is wrong, Lawbringer is an extremely strong hero with the highest HP and has I believe the highest dmg OOS throw punish in the game at 80 dmg.
