    Deflecting unblockables

    Hey Ubisoft Why can't we deflect unblockables. They are meant to be not for blocking so why can't we not deflect. I think deflecting unblockables would be cool I think. This is just a curious question?

    What do you guys think?

    I simply agree. BP can Bulwark Flip every attack, even deflects, except feats and GBs so why can't deflects counter unblockables?

    I agree, gives more use and reason for reflex guard as well. dont know how they would implement it though

    That's true it does give us a reason for reflex guard. Hey Ubisoft if your reading this can we be able to deflect unblockables in the future. If you do this was my idea. I'm joking

    I would remove unblockables, increase chip damage (and make it lethal) and make parry ripostes parryable.

    I honestly can't tell if you're trolling with us or you're serious.

    DO WHAT? Make parry ripostes parryable? Why? That would really flip over the game from the inside-out.

    Just imagine: you are in 1v1 and you really try your best to win. You analyze your opponent and after a short time you start to recognize patterns. Then according to these patterns you successfully make some reads and predictions and finally because of that you score some heavy and even light parries. In my eyes at this point you DESERVE to preform your punish, but this entire process and your skill can be neglected because the enemy can simply parry your punish! So you either hope that he/she don't parry (but then he/se can simply block it) or you feint the attack which otherwise would have been your parry punish.

    I'm genuinely sorry, but your suggestion is one of the worse that I have ever seen. It's a big no-no for me.

    Yeah I'm not gonna lie I don't know what hes talking about. I just ask if we can deflect unblockables and he said removed them. I'm like. What? Like who would want to increase chip damage after a successful block that kinda defeats the purpose of blocking.

    Agreed.

    Removing unlockable would turn the game into a staring contest again. It is a bad idea.
    Blocking is harder than ever after the CCU, so why punish people who does it well by making block damage lethal. Also, it would be ridiculous as well, imagine, I block an attack but I still die somehow. WUT?

    Facts but what do you think about deflecting unblockables. It came to my mind and I was like why can't we deflect them?

    Sure. Why not? Assassins are hard to play since the ccu (especially in 4v4 modes), so I wouldn't mind if they could deflect unblockables to make them better. After all they are not "undeflectable". But in this case other heroes should be able to do it as well, like Valk or Shaolin.
