I play on Xbox, and a couple nights ago I ran into a Shugoki that just blocked everything. I played against him three matches in a row: the first match I played as Kensei, the next two as Highlander.
My first match, the Shugoki went 13 and 1, but I rationalized it as me being easily readable - after all, dodge spam as Kensei is annoying, but easy to counter with a level head.
The second match, I played highlander, tried to hyper armor my way to victory. Was constantly parried. Shugoki went around 18 to 3.
Third match, I decided to mix it up. Celtic curse, parry to offensive stance, feinting to lights, the works. Shugoki blocked about 50% of my attacks, and parried the unblockables. Somehow we managed to break the enemy team, and Shugo was the last one left. At this point, I was convinced he was cheating, so I spammed offensive stance lights. Even with me spamming those lights, and the rest of my team attacking him and bashing him, he STILL managed to block approximately 80% of incoming attacks, his stance indicators flickering the whole time. I report him at end of match and move on.
One day later, I realize something: his stance indicators weren't actually flickering. They were rotating. I theorized he wasn't cheating at all, just spinning his right stick as quickly as possible. But surely that wouldn't work...right?
Ends up, it does.
My next match, without even maxing out my sensitivity settings, I managed to go from blocking 50% of attacks to approximately 85%.
It...it's not supposed to be that easy, is it?
