Some complaining for a great weekend : 3 | Forums

Or maybe they can just fix bash selects and you can learn how to play against people. All your complaints here that are not purely "waaah LB weak" are basically proof that you've hit a wall in your capabilities and would rather have the game bend to your inadequacy than ask around on how to deal with higher level strats. You're clearly not a dumpster fire player in terms of capabilities but your attitude reeks of one.

Ya know im in gm on pc....And im winning nearly every match (no rankeds) im just ponting out how it should be (my opinion at least) it would be good for a game from lont time perspective. Now you can see fast bash and add latency what makes ultra small dodge window so you will be bashed all the time so please stop trying to make me guilty here

Warlord's bash is fine. Probably one of the best bashes from a balance perspective. The problem isn't his bash it's bash selects. Which can be done with any bash from neutral even LB's. This is best fixed by not letting parry inputs have priority over everything. This would not only get rid of bash selects but GB selects and also Zone option selects.

I don't much care for how often you win I already told you I know you're not a trash player. I just agressively disagree with your attitude of "nerf things I struggle with." Until the devs address the input problem your best counter to Bash selects and GB selects is buffer feint into light. You can also early dodge to deal with Bash selects but that's risky because they can just GB select that time instead. If the person is out of stamina and doing GB selects buffer feint into heavy instead. This works because GB action is slower while OOS.

Option selects definitely need to go, especially in a read based combat style.

Before the ccu, option selects were ok because everything was reaction based. Now, in a read based game, it makes no sense to get successful parries for incorrect reads. Like, if you read incorrectly, you should be punished.

Zone option selects are not particularly problematic in the grandscheme of things. They don't really add much but they also don't particularly take away much. And considering most zones are one offs with zero chain capability, relatively high stamina cost, and afford little damage it's a safer option to deal with a mix up. But a low reward for most heros.

Bash selects are inherently a problem because of how strong bashes are from a design perspective. And GB selects are busted because there's zero way to actually tell when someone is attempting one, it can be done while you're out of stamina unlike the other two, and there's a grand total of one counter of feint into light. GB selects are almost as damaging for the game if not as damaging as unlock tech was. Which not as bad as slippy tech. But still absurd.

Anyway, I don't think Zone option selects need to be removed. But for better or worse they would be removed if Ubi did the correct fix to address the other two option selects as well as get rid of dodge selects. I've no strong opinion on their removal or not. I don't really do option selects much myself.
