@undondory No offense here but combative women are not very badass. It's not their fault obviously biology is a thing, but they're just not very threatening.

It's the same thing with small guys. If someone said to me "hey, this 5'7 150 pound guy is looking for you to come beat you up."
I would laugh, but if they said "hey, this 6'4 250 pound guy is coming to beat you up." I would be much more intimidated.

Women being in fighting games and being portrayed as these badass brutes fills a diversity quota to make the people happy, but it's not exactly realistic.

@mainend1069 For the love of God no more heroes after the next one that's been announced. Each one they release now is highly annoying and throws away balance. I'd rather them use their time to make more dominion maps and update existing characters that desperately need to catch up.

Here you go. I don't follow him, but it's on his twitch channel.

@knight_raime He'll more than likely get a nerf. His full block gets way too much reward for how safe and it is. It also doesn't take much thought at all, just sit in it and get a free heavy + stun lock for an additional heavy from a teammate when they inevitably hit your all guard with a external attack by accident.
Makes for some real riveting gameplay lol.

They should at least make it so you have to time it, or take the follow up fusion cuts (or whatever they're called) out of it.

@deathtocakl Most certainly not in For Honor, but if they were to ever make a For Honor 2 or a different game with the same Art Of Battle system then I would hope petty issues that this could be ironed out.

He's definitely missing some stuff. If they're going to keep his kit relatively the same which I assume they will then he definitely needs some number adjustments. I could be wrong,, but it seems like his dodge kick has a high gb vulnerability which should change to 100ms, his back flip shouldn't be gbable (though to implement this they need to finally take out backwards attacks for all characters), being able to throw out a heavy or something on kick wiff to protect him from gbs and give him some other options to use other than back flip.

That's all that stuff I can think of that he could use at the moment, I've only played him for a couple hours.

I'm a solo For Honor player for the most part and I know I'm most definitely not alone in that. I can't convince any of my real life friends that this game is actually fun. Can we please get solo lobbies for this game? Recently I've only been getting in lobbies that have a full stack of 4 players and it's just not a fun experience when everyone is running off doing their own thing. I really think it will help the player base grow as well because it is beyond frustrating to just keep running into sweat stacks over and over.

@undondory There's a reason there are men's divisions and female divisions in combat sports. Because the females would get absolutely destroyed. There's also a reason you don't see trans men going into men's combat sports, but you see trans women going into women's division and crushing all of the records lol. So let's not pretend women are physically equal to men in general.

Also, there were something like 3 confirmed women pirates in existence.

@knight_raime Hey good to see you back Knight. Never thought you of all people would ever be banned.

I'm really biased here because I dislike clutch, I think he has a punchable face and an attitude to match it.

That being said, I don't think he should be perma banned (as long as this is his first offense, I'm not sure if he's been in trouble before. I don't follow him) as I believe everyone deserves a second chance. I do however believe he and the others should either have to sit out for either a few Dom series or be forced to donate their winnings to charity for a while.

I'm not a comp player, very casual, but I really do want to see For Honor succeed in both categories. It's a shame people feel the need to sell their integrity for a chance at winning a small $2500. I'm sure Clutch and the others understand how disappointed everyone is and won't do it again.

I'd rather them have to donate their winnings if they win to charity for a few series personally.

@nydardoloth The Ubisoft symbol is universal for a platform other than yours. So you'll never really know if they're pc or xbox. Ubi should definitely implement the proper icons because I would like to know what platform I'm playing against.

Having the custome portraits on the character selection screen would be

After a couple matches my first impressions is I would put him in B tier. Just doesn't have a lot of what makes a great character these days. He can't even chain from his stance swap.

I'm most upset that I can't make him a pasty white dude though.

Yeah they need to cap the ping for sure, but they also need to kick people who have inconsistent ping as well. 30 ping swings can cause a problems

@illuminatieyes I watch Freezes videos from time to time, not really familiar with the other guy you mentioned. However, I imagine they said that Conq was broken because he absolutely was, but they addressed his main issues with the hot fix last Thursday (I think it was thursday). So now he's back down with the other top characters, which is where the devs want him to be.

On the contrary Conq desperately needs a chase tool. The only other nerf he may need is being able to full block recover cancel his bash, but we'll have to see what the new tg does to it first.

They made the penalty because back in the day when it was p2p, one person quitting would usually crash the match. So they put it in place to discourage people from quitting.

The best way to fix your problem is to join a For Honor discord and find a group to play with. Might be a bit harder to do so on console until they have cross group, but if you play pc you'll definitely be able to find one. Otherwise, if you're gonna solo queue then you get what you get. Just take the L and move on.

I will laugh so hard if it's anything not including Conq getting his fixes.

Would love Shaolin to be able to enter Qi stance a bit faster too, but that's definitely not happening lol

Conq is pretty much good to go. The only real things they need to do is obviously fix his dmg and the heavy hit stun after flail uppercut and he's good to go in my opinion. I've changed my stance on being able to full guard cancel after a whiffed bash, I imagine the upcoming tg will also effect him being completely safe from dodge attacks.

The only other indirect nerf he needs is the whole core mechanic that I've brought up a bunch, where bashes bounce off of parry lock and block stun, but that will effect the whole cast in general.

I just want to reiterate how annoying that flail uppercut locks you from being able to dodge and that needs fixed asap.

Also just wanted to post a couple changes I'd like to see for both.

Shaolin: I would really like it if he could flow into qi stance on his finishers, not sure why this isn't a thing for him.

Conq: Him being able to full guard cancel his bash recoveries is also really dumb.

@deathtocakl I'm not a big fan of that either, but Conq gets his from netural and feels a whole lot more oppressive than Shinobi does. Although I did only play for a couple hours as Conq yesterday so my opinion could be subject to change as I get used to his kit, but for now it just seems too much. Especially since you can get it extremely easily off of parry lock and block stun.
