    Highlander Unbalanced Rewrote

    Ubisoft Please,

    NERF HIGHLANDER, I ASK THIS FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART PLEASE.

    Highlander has the fastest lights in the game.He has hyper armor on light attacks this is basically a shoguki light spammer before shugoki getting his nerf. His crush-counter does 20 damage please fix that. For a person to have that many mixups and fients just to punish you with big damage is insane.

    Please this is all I ask I hope he gets one because he is unbalanced more than kenshi.

    Nerf HL:

    Take way his hyper armor lights on all his attacks.

    MAKE HIS CRUSH-COUNTER ONLY AT TOP like Warden.

    He can no longer grab you because it waste 40stam on you and he gets a free hit instead give him only a kick that he can fient

    All heavy Damage Nerf to 30 to 25Dam

    His stamina gets depleted faster when doing heavys/unblockable attacks or if he stays in offensive mode to long. Think of it as a conqueror all block.

    SUMMARY: This is fair tho if you think about it like we can't attack him because of crush-counter and of his hyperarmor.

    We have to play a lot of defensive than offensive. He can spam lights and we can't attack back because of hyper armor.
    This is literally a better shoguki

    Now if you nerf him please with the changes I ask at least recommend the light hyperarmor spamming and the crush-counter please.

    Ubisoft I beg you guys I been tweeting all day to you please balance Highlander

    All of these statements kinda boil down to: Make the hero reactable so I can stomp him.

    No non of your changes are needed.

    There really is only one issue with the hero and that is a general issue with crushing counters while walking back wards being very hard to punish.

    I put these as some ideas I don't want him to be useless I just think that for such a powerful character he needs a rework. You can't lie his mixups are insane.

    He mix ups are strong but non unbeatable, highlander really does not need any changes besides the one I mentioned.


    This on is on you to improve.

    Check some videos about Highlander when he was released. Your suggestion would make it even more thrash than he was back then. I figure you don't really care, you just want him to be useless for a free win.

    Just because highlander not a problem to you doesn't mean hes balanced. That's your opinion. I only thing that they should make his crush-counter in one counter direction (maybe up like wardens) due to the fact its spamable and the fact I have to play defensive against hyperarmor lights. I thought the new season in this game was meant to be offensive then defensive but I guess sense I want a little nerf it's a big problem. This is literally a spamming light hyperarmor shoguki. I think no one needs hyperarmor for lights

    Literally I just want no hyperarmor on light attacks and nerf crush-counter. That's IT. All I ask for.

    Once PK gets a good buff and highlander gets a nerf I'm done writing on forums. Other then that they are my main concern.

    Do You guys agree about a little nerf on Highlander I just hate spammers. Especially on hyper armor CHARACTERS

    Not really, yeah pk needs a buff but highlander is in a good spot and as said in my opinion does not need a nerf.

    (Besides the general issue of crushing counter backwalking)

    Crushing counter is not spamable. Feint, free light parry for you. Besides, WL, BP and Valk has it as well, so it is not just him.

    The backwalk light is indeed irritating. I think he should get enchanced def lights, the Crushing counter should be in Os instead ds, a bit better animations for the second light, no backwalk light, and call it a day.

    Ok what about his hyper armor on light attacks can we at least agree to take away those sense he literally has the fastest lights in the game.
