    Atttacks go trough the guard and highlander nerf

    Thats a huge issue...Attacks will just simply go trough the guard i mean light attacks like tiandi touble tap, zerk fainted light and nuxia chain attacks. Ya can even test it on bots result will be the same. Its caused ccu cuz attack is fast but if we add ccu and latency game will not register your block and guard become black and you will eat the attack.

    Next thing is a nerf for hl...why? Cuz he is easy and too safe thats why. What should be nerfed? His recoveries and 50/50 yet 400 ms poke lights at off stance what else? Back step light... and his second light in chain have wanky animation. Oh oh he can still dodge you out cuz **** logic oh oh and i love part where he is in off stance and boom he can parry me. Just Fluff logic

    "Dear Diary,

    Today, I received an ego check from a Highlander player, so I asked an other nerf for Highlander. It is truly pathetic how unbalanced this dorky dork game is (I am cute when I write like this Btw), every character but mine is broken, I just can not bear the unfairness how I lose some fights. If the game would be balanced, I would be unstoppable."

    I really can’t see where highlanders has a problem besides maybe omni diracrion crushing counters.

    Like if you get hit bucket anything he has it’s kinda your own fault.

    Latency issues and framerate have been very problematic lately, especially on console. A lot of flickering, as well as watching the game second guess whether an attack hits or not.

    As far as highlander, my best advice would be to fight a high level highlander bot until you're comfortable guarding against his attacks. As far as parrying in offensive stance, odds are he cancelled his stance to parry you.

    "Attacks will simply pass through the guard".... This thing, I don't think it can happen, I've fought a bunch of HLs and it's never happened to me.

    You should make a video so we can tell you where you're going wrong.

    Sometimes there are singular failures, which can have several causes ... One of them is Latency among others.

    Just yesterday with Jormungandr, I used the feat "Twilight of the Gods" and was a Black Prior within the affected area in Bullwark Stance, and did not fall (i dont know why) to suffer the Pin ...

    Revenge maybe? Or was bulwarking someone at that moment?

    Also, if someone else is hitting that player, it will probably stagger them out from the knockdown, like when an idiotic ally hits an out of stamina enemy.

    Another post after a merciless defeat. If someone says that HL is too strong, then he has not understood the game. Ever wonder why he has such quick recoveries? Because he has no defense in offensive form ...That's his style of play. You must not play carelessly against a Highlander because otherwise you will receive a lot of damage. But you've probably noticed that already. The only point that I agree with is the animation of the second light. The devs should work on that animation and HA should be removed on it. If u can’t deal with his 50/50...learn to play against it and don’t write ur diary after a lose in this thread.
    I‘m open for any discussion...✌🏼

    No ... Just me and Black Prior ...
    I decided to use Feat.
    He was right inside the perimeter of Feat, just set up the Bullwark ... and so it went on without falling ...

    He was not in Revenge, nor was anyone else in the area (Harbor - Zone C).

    But the reverse has already happened to me, I used the Feat, someone interrupted me in a gank, but for some reason everyone fell on the floor, I pinned one enemy, but Feat continued to be ready to use again.
