    Reacting to light attacks?

    I'm currently playing as Aramusha, but regardless whether I'm playing as Warlord, Conqueror or anyone with the back dodge move, I've noticed that I don't have a problem in Duels against the computer reacting to their lights, to pull off Blade blockade, but in Dominion, it's virtually impossible.
    How much is the input delay lag on Dominion?

    Hello, marcus4471.

    I am am able to answer your question in a semi-complex manner.

    The bots are hosted on your connection, thus they mark the full amount of time that a light should take (300 ms in the fastest cases). When you play online, the delay between you and a peer gamer (say, an enemy orochi), you will experience accelerated lights due to it compensating for the time it took to read the input and transfer the data to you. The best bet is to predict what they're doing, or focus on blocking, NOT parrying, as there are several issues currently regarding parrying registering due to you and your enemy seeing two entirely different fights.

    I hope this helps you!

    V/R

    It's because they not longer have any idea what they are doing.

    You are totally wrong.
    The Highlander's light attacks are no faster than the Nuxia's light attacks.
    The light attacks of the Nuxia are 400ms while those of the Highlander are 500ms.
    It is the CCU that makes attacks so fast.
