/fhg/ - For Honor General

To be faid the servers have been unstable, making it harder too.

I've made a few thanks to duels. Sometimes you encounter people who don't get salty when you 3-0 them and want to keep playing against you to get better.

Of course you do it in custom games where their win rates won't get fucked.

>lawbringer rep 4
>starting to feel frustrated

should i keep at it or go conq

Yes, as you say they calculated wrong

>warden
>unbalanced
lol

Just parry his top light.

Become proficient and adapt. Stop playing passive!

Stop while you still enjoy the game

Please don't go conq. Literally anything else is better than le shieldbump man

ERP is gay but if they just post a pastebin or a picture/art then why is that not acceptable?

YOU GOTTA EAT AAAAAAAAAAALL THE PIZZAS

Do a little conquing until you want some more Law & Order

this general has really slowed down as of late

Conq feels boring and simple compared to LB to be honest. Sure it's fairly powerful and wrecks people who don't know how to dodge the shield bash, but matches feel like boring turtlefests. 4v4 parts end up almost always in the duels lasting so long that either your or their friends join in and finish the fight.

EAT YER PIZZA!

Ok I will go Warlord then. Thanks, user

Does Nobushi ever get clothing that doesn't look like it was hastily stitched together in a couple of hours?

I want to play Raider but it doesn't seem like I can swap guard to keep up with the faster character attacks, that along with the fact they're not very good is making me run out of steam for the game. Is there any way to recover because I want to git gud, my heart just isn't in it for now

1. It's off topic
2. They weren't posting a pastepin, they were nonstop spamming pictures of them erping in the game.

Give a single reason why ERP should be allowed, because there is no reason. It's against the rules. Unless you're going to claim ERP is safe for work

>no OCs
>no fun allowed
Geez, I wonder why.

just like the game has

How to fight a Warden
By Rep 4 Warden

>Always default your stance to left to catch random zones
>Blocking the zone attack gives you a free untechable grab
>If the Warden starts a shoulder charge, your best method to avoid the vortex is to roll backwards. If you don't have the room to roll backwards, throw out your fastest light attack.
>Best way to penetrate a wardens defenses is to overhead feint. Any good Warden will try to crushing counterstrike an overhead. This means that unlike other classes, the Warden parries overheads with a light attack. He can't cancel his light attack when he realizes you baited him, and you can parry this light to punish him.
>Don't let a Warden get you near a wall
>When you're low on health, be especially careful of the zone attack. Leave your guard in left position and get ready to punish. Zone is a quick, easy finisher, and a lot of wardens will pull it out to finish you off if they're not trying to execute you.
>Watch closely for the top light, it comes out fast and if they hit you, get ready to be vortexed
>If a Warden happens to hit you with a crushing counterstrike, don't panic, because a lot of them will take advantage of your shock to shoulder charge and vortex you. Most of the time in this situation they will follow through with it, so if you can't roll away you're more likely to be safe by dodging rather than expecting them to cancel and tech
>Warden can shoulder charge off of a dash, so if they dash for no reason, light attack them in the face
>Warden has a heavy->heavy chain. The second heavy has surprisingly long range. Don't assume that they fucked up if they "whiff" the first heavy.

Take solace in the fact that Raider and Lawbringer are first in line to get buffs to improve their dueling.

>IF YOU CAN ERP YOU BAN ALL THE OC
I can't even fathom what it's like to be this retarded

>2. They weren't posting a pastepin, they were nonstop spamming pictures of them erping in the game.
fucking who? the only person who did shit like that was lewdkeeper, and the entire point of those were the reactions it got out of normies

not one of those screenshots were actual ERP

Your words not mine

what will the next vikang be?

will we finally get someone with a warhammer/mace?

> tfw seriously considering going back to overwatch because of the current state of the game
> will probably have to eventually even if the game gets patched
Please ubi fix this fucking game so I can prolong my brief escape from that shit game

>I can literally just spam the same combo repeatedly and my opponent has to do all the hard work countering it and GUESSING which move I'll use
lol

>just parry one of the fastest moves in the game out of neutral
Agh! How did I not think of that? I must suck at the game.

I'll try user, but it sure is tough being punished by such an aggressive tactic! Weird how it's both an offensive and defensive tool though.

ERP is for faggots and it shouldn't be allowed, but Lewdkeeper is trolling, not really ERP. Still, even if you ban lewdkeeper for ERP, weren't writefags getting gassed a few threads ago as well?

Overwatch is even worse right now. Every team is built around Bastion

I'm finally mastering Hidden Stance and its so satisfying

i plead to odin for an axe/mace viking with a shield/buckler

what is the best punish for a max range parry for a raider against a hyrbid/kensei?

I main lawbringer so for him I just use the light unless i get the light parry, but I cant seem to confirm lights against them.

Wut do?

>30 frames
>fastest
lmaoin @you

Seriously user we all know vortex is cancer and turns the game into a shitty guessing game but you don't have to sperg out like this.

people still play that?

Got a feeling the next vikang mercenary will be Celtic-themed, probably wielding a ridiculously sized claymore like some Highlander parody...

It's because no one wants to make any content for this general because of how toxic everyone is to any content creators in any form.

Want to draw the characters? Go for it. By the way, you are not allowed to:
Draw lewds
Draw characters without masks
Draw characters in a way that breaks the line between viking/knight/weeb
Draw characters as a sex other than female (But remember, no lewds)
Draw any suggestive material
Draw characters in a situation that doesn't fit the pre-conceived ideas on what they would or would not do

You also are not allowed to write about:
Anything because no matter what you'll be reported for ERPing and be shit talked

No one wants to do any creative shit for an ungrateful community. R6S has tons of content creators because people actually appreciate their work. Did you know there used to be a "Community Works" pastebin in the OP? Guess where that went? Removed in every single thread and when it was posted people bitched and screamed about it.

>tfw you meant to do a heavy attack in a certain direction but you end up parrying their zone attack and they think you're a god

>not one of those screenshots were actual ERP
Yes, they were.
>MAKE ME SHIT VIKING CUM FOR WEEKS, I NEED YOUR COCK DADDY PLZ
>No bro you got it wrong, it was all satirical just to get reactions
You're retarded. And the way you say it is even worse, considering he did the same fucking thing EVERY TIME
>Hey guys I erp'd in game and people were creeped out!
>Hey guys I erp'd in game and people liked it!
>Hey guys I erp'd in game and people thought I was weird!
Comedy gold right? I sure love someone posting the exact same thing over and over again despite it being completely off topic and against the rules

>tfw enemy feints, you fall for it, but still hit them with your heavy

just as planned

i would love some lewds

If the knights get stuck with a centurion, you faggots should end up with a Zulu spear chucker.

>tfw reddit is more accepting of all of that

There was literally OC in the last thread, yet here you are acting as if there's none
Literally the only thing people complained about was the ERP shit, and a few shitposters said not to draw people without masks.
Someone drew a lewd FemConq and everyone enjoyed it, and people appreciated the guy who drew the buddy Lawbringer and Conq cop piece as well

i made a nobushi with big tits
got banned for 3 days

>Warden can shoulder charge off of a dash, so if they dash for no reason, light attack them in the face

Good way to get dicked by their dash attack. Better off side stepping.

i erp all the time

that's not erp, you fucking mong

You want to post it? Reported and banned (obviously)
You want to spoiler it? Reported and banned
You want to post a link to it? Reported and banned

Yeah nah. No one will anymore because of people like I stopped making content because I'm not a very good artist and whenever it was posted I was met with "the fuck is this shit?" so I stopped bothering to draw for fhg

Prime example.

That's the risk you take posting non worksafe things on a work safe board. I honestly don't know why people are fucking shocked about this.

Lets say warden loses the ability to cancel bash into GB

is he "balanced" now?

Guard swapping is only really affected in neutral when you aren't using a move or being hit by one. That's just the game using intentionally slow animations for
>muh immersion
When an opponent actually goes to use a move and you try to block it you'll find yourself 'snapping' into position faster than you'd normally be able to change guards.
Same thing applies when you're in the middle of a chain, but NOT when your chains get interrupted.

Raider is one of those characters that's very easy to learn but hard to master, some would even say hamstrung by his limited toolset. At the same time though he's very rewarding to play well.

this, this, this

I wrote but no way I'm gonna post if I'm gonna get banned for it

>tfw you go to GB an enemy but they GB'd you first and you accidentally tech out of the GB and they fall backwards off a ledge

95% yes. The last 5% is the fact that he has a super fast top light AND a super fast zone. And the fact that you can cancel the zone into the top light now? Get the hell out of here with "warden is balanced"

there is literal porn in other generals so why do people in this one act like fags

No, Warden is fine as he is.

I got a 3 day for referring to the enemy team as a couple of "hunks" when I posted a 4v4 load screen where I was heavily outgeared (I might have compared a 2v1 gank to being bullied too, can't be meme'ing outside of /b/ or /s4s/!). I got a 7 day ban from /v/ for posting SOME in reply to Mass Effect's Pee Bee's Shrek face. I don't really know these days.

>No one will post OC anymore because of someone who didn't like seeing ERP pictures in the threads
Won't miss you if you think banning ERP pics will stifle all creative work.
I love how you still have not given a single example as to why the erp pictures should be allowed here.
It was one sided erp and lewd talking, you still haven't said why it should be allowed here.

zone is gb on block
top light is 30 frames, literally like every other light attack

How can you cancel an attack that comes out that fast? Where is this coming from?

i know its a risk, but a lot of way more explicit stuff gets posted on another generals but the people here was more eager on reporting

Warden has a dash attack?

Also do you retards not know that all you have to do to remove your ban is reset your router? You don't even have to get your ass out of your computer chair.

Maybe because the game was literally one week old and we had a shitposter nonstop posting pictures of him in game asking people to fuck him so he shits viking cum for weeks. Multiple people told him to stop and he smugly said he wouldn't, so obviously he got reported and banned.

The games a couple weeks old, having erp shit in the general turns people away from here.

there'd be no repercussions to dodging his charge, so it'd become somewhat useless and we'd lose yet another champion against the turtle meta

Yes, he has a running attack.

he's low tier and hardly played

Warden is seen as a low tier pick currently, Conq/Warlord/PK are all on another level entirely

the problem currently is that we have 3 broken heroes, 2 good heroes, and the rest are pretty trash

>lewds
>non worksafe

Nigger people saying "fuck" and "nigger" isn't "worksafe".

>always saying ERP pics
there has been only lewdkeeper and that one writefag doing fanfics and that is the entirety of ERP bullshit in this general since the alpha. Stop shitposting about "m-muh erp posting" when there isn't any. Lewdkeeper gets banned every time they show up. Stop trying to say this validates you.

Zone still is pretty fast. Also lawbringer cannot do anything to punish it so bah humbug.

It's a secret tech. You can start a zone animation (or even a GB animation), it shows the indicator for what you are starting, then you get a light in another direction instead of whatever you were just using.

No, he is trash. Bash is a dead ability at that point. Right now the cancel into parry option is strong because it as an answer to the sidedash+light move. If the enemy can safely sidedash without having to attack to prevent a GB it also eliminates that option. It basically becomes a worse LB shove because it has a slower animation.

>People ONLY report and discourage dumb ERP and lewd shit which has no place on a blue board anyway since Veeky Forums has dedicated boards for that
>All other OC is tolerated and even encouraged
>12-year-old lewdfags start bitching and moaning about "prudes" and "no fun allowed"

Maybe if you find masturbating to le epic lewds xD and roleplaying more fun than discussing the game or producing actual quality OC then you should post somewhere else.

>scaring people away from a general with porn
>on this Mongolian cave painting site
no

A lot of them are just harder to master. I've seen some scary Kenseis and LBs.

he's low tier and hardly played in tournies*

this is relevant because tournies are tryhard central, where a fucking epic twitch pro warden lost to a fucking LEGENDARY raider

because it's oc. it's a contribution to the thread. a step below actual art and shit, but it's something new and related to the game. it's the shit that memes are made of, literally. picture related

you're trying to smother a facet of content just because it's a flavor you happen not to like and that's pretty bullshit, friend

The people here were eager to report because one shitposter (lewdkeeper) had absolutely no self control and was shitting up every single thread, smugly saying he'd never stop when people asked/told him to. It literally took the mods range banning him to get him to fucking stop.
As a result people are obviously worried about someone becoming the next lewdkeeper and shitting up the threads, so they are quick as shit to report. Shame he ruined it for others

Samsy inspired me to play Conq.

A forced meme that most of the thread finds annoying is not quality OC.

In fact, a forced meme isn't even a meme.

The point is that while other assassins (and some classes like kensei and valk) have to use lights for dashes, you can use heavies for dashes.
This means that you cannot be punished as much as those classes for doing the exact same thing as them. Parried heavies don't have the huge window parried lights have. On top of that, people who haven't read every fucking move in the PK moveset will not expect that something that is as fast and looks 100% like the other assassins' dashing/gapclosing lights is actually a heavy, and they'll get punished for trying to do a light parry followup.

You shouldn't be punished less for doing the exact same shit as objectively worse assassin classes. It's unfair to them and your opponents.

>that feel when you become an unblockable adonis

agreed, but making reads and punishing is something anyone can do, the problem is when the characters don't have any good tools outside of that, and you just lean on fundamentals because the character doesn't have anything good to use

t. rep 8 warden + LB

Makoto General

You're the one insisting on not drawing lewds, I'm the one saying as long as it's not ERP it will be fine.
Proof is we had an artist draw a FemConq after Lewdkeeper was banned and it never got deleted and he never got banned.

Stop pretending as though every single artist is being banned
This

Make warlord headbutt slower.

Make warden and PK zone attacks slower.

Make PK light attack block stun longer or alternatively cost more stamina.

Make LB heavies slightly faster.

Make raider GBs deal more stamina damage.

Give berserkers more mobility during their infinite combo.

So how do you duel with Zerk? Are you just supposed to feint a lot and throw out lights, and only do heavies when you get a GB off? His heavies are so easy to block/parry it feels impossible to get a top heavy off

>this somehow hit the kensei
what the fuck

Did you just try to legitimize your point that if you're opponent doesn't know how the move works it's unfair to them? Duo you really think that's a reason for anything?

So is it worth it to waste my steel on the exp bonus? You honestly level much faster and seem to get twice as much loot. I assume once you hit prestige 5 its not really needed anymore but im only at 3.

>you're the one insisting on not drawing lewds
>proceeds to "this" a post about someone saying lewds should not be posted

Jesus fucking christ...

It was off topic, and against the rules. The majority of the threads were asking him to stop shitting them up.
>New and related to the game
It really wasn't related to the game though. If I suddenly decided that I want to go ERP in overwatch and flood the general with pictures of me ERPing in game and people ask me to stop, I'm not a welcome member of the general posting OC, I'm a massive fucking cunt hijacking the thread for attention
