I think Sohei is the perfect example of the Mallenia effect, his hole kit is lame, no mix ups, pretty slow, low damage, no hyper armour dispites he is heavy, very predectible playstyle. Just cause one of his attacks is broken, people think he is OP
I think Ubisoft needs to take this one back to the kitchen and cook a little bit more. If his regular attacks are bad but his passive is broken then the character is fundamentally flawed. Being forced to get your passive to be viable is not a great feeling. The one shot hype will fade and he will get reworked.
i think all his attacks using the spear should have standard damage and just his 6 weapons should have nerfed damage. so he has constant pressure like any other hero and not just tickling someone for ages
Ubisoft can only make the same character so many times. Imo, he's a breath of fresh air. If his playstyle doesnt jive, don't play him. Instead, choose one of the other 20 characters who play the exact same.
lets not just normalize every character to being perfectly homogenous. Thats a boring as fuck way to make new content. He can have high and low moments
@@tempestvenator9809 He still needs to land all requisite hits to get to that point. He's guardbreak heavy. Interrupt his feign unlockables and don't be parry hungry. I still lose to him, but proportionately, no more than I do to all the other characters
as someone who has only seen content on this character it feels like if u just increased all his attacks by 2 or 3 dmg and decreased the oneshot dmg by 20 he'd be pretty balanced. Either he'd be balanced or broken even more.
i would give him 3 bars finisher and enhance 2nd fast atack so it cant be parried after hitting the first fast attack, heavy atacks should have more damage, same as dodge heavy. Also grab strikes should be more dangerous by 2 damage at least each strike
Light parrying with sohei makes sure fights go quick buuuuut you literally have to light parry to go crazy with him. I feel like if the bash was something you could throw out to change stances that'd be good for him, especially if you could fient it into a guard break.
Sohei is literally a hero that you could be fucking up 95% of the fight, maybe land a light or two. But if you manage to somehow get in 2 sneaky Gb's you are rewarded a win. One bash, pretty much instant kill at that point. One parry, light or heavy? Instant kill. His base damage is ass, but the fact that you can be bad the whole fight and are rewarded for it is baffling.
Just be extra careful to watch for gb. If his kit revolves around it its a lot easier to defend than if it was just part of his kit like so many other heros. He isn't rewarded for play I g bad he's rewarded by playing good and even maybe playing against a worse opponent.
I am mad and sad because I can't do anything without receiving no health bar so hopefully I can return but at least I can watch U King misty to keep in the loop of the new hero I am only level 5 nearly 6
Anyone else download this during the free trial but now unable to buy the game now that it’s over ? I’m on ps4 and have tried restoring license and deleting the game nothing works
@@Jordan-g8v3mits a bug you cant do much this happened to me and Bloodborne i bought the game 2 years before it was on ps plus then they took the game i owned as if i never owned it and said i needed deluxe
Idk if its fair w the whole set tbh. Heavy guarantee on that fast of a bash is what irks me and that one shot in ANY sort of anti gank is impossible to avoid. Mostly
„That is putrid, disgusting“ yooo misty are you playing warframe? 😂 thats more or less a line that Ordis says when you enter the infested room in your orbiter
They should make it so he can use his “nuke” any time adding ten damage per soul and also make like all his other attacks do a bit more damage. Would be a lot more fun and viariable imo.
Sohei is really really bad. he's only super strong 10% of the time and the rest of the time he sucks bad. maybe it's because I play 4s mostly, but yead. Sohei is the character where you fight your team and the enemy team. you rarely get teammates with half a neuron. 1v7. just the other day both our teams were breaking. we were 2v2 my teammate interrupts my one shot which would have left us against one of them at low health, instead he gave the guy revenge and we were both done

Sohei is definitely not too good, but being able to get a near one shot off of a couple mistakes makes him a terrifying yet annoying character.
They should put down the damage of his special attack to 50… all I ask for. 50 is still good
@@CafLichy Yea but buff the ligths damage too
@@emilioestebanyamacanto2943 I don’t know about that to be honest. I haven’t played him
They need to buff his chains and make the special attack harder to get.
Imo it should 3 guard breaks instead of 2.
@@CafLichyit’s literally the only high damage attack he has, all of his attacks are lowered
The weapons on his back are organised as left-top-right. If you’re missing one just look at his back. White are lights black is heavy
The way I've been doing it is that they go in a repeating order of heavy light from left to right
He’s basically a sleeper build. Bro does no damage and then boom 95 damage.

people just don’t know how to make reads against sohei despite him being like a children’s book of reads.
Please ubisoft keep bringing out heroes this cool 🎉
He certainly can end fights super quickly, but against someone who knows how to fight him, he gets neutered

do you play on PC but use controller? Just wondering bc i might make the switch
At 2:36, did he dead-angle his zone so it would hit? I didn't think sohei got his zone off of heavy parry?
The hito Dodge attacked so light parry.
@@NoNamesAreAllowed Does hito really count as a dodge light? It's heavy input and says heavy in the combat log?
@@kaz1610all dodge attacks are considered light parries. It’s been that way for awhile now

I played 2 day with him and every time i get a bad score, he is so difficult to use and not powerfull
Yeah but hes fun and i get to use it almost every match put some rime into him and feint alot more and hes great in duel not very strong but very fun

Very healthy character for the already thriving game🤥
He is healthy tho? It shows that the devs are willing to experiment with the game, even if the outcome isn't the best and is an underpowered hero
He is
I guess someone can’t count the souls
idk why people full on heavy a sohei with 6 souls and expect not to get mauled the next second

4-5 business days to get a kill. If your opponent can counter a guard break once, your entire kit is ruined and you picked a dead weight character.

Every for honor character that has come out shows up busted and then gets thrown in the dirt it's just Ubi's sad strategy for money
I’m rep 6 hito and I swear I’m better than him bro don’t even try to mix up he just relying on those heavy’s fr fr that’s crazy
They should make it so he can use his “nuke” any time adding ten damage per soul and also make like all his other attacks do a bit more damage. Would be a lot more fun and viariable imo.
I think sohei needs to lose an indicator everytime you get hit. That way you have to fight your way to gain such ability.

His parries can get parried. 😂 bro is too slow and it’s just a mini game to get souls. 😢
Sohei more like slohei 😂 dudes mid at best the nuke move makes him ok 😅
Bro for real why are u ASMR whispering the whole time? Its making your vids unwatchable for me
because we like the calming commentary for the stress inducing game lol. same reason why people love nova too
