1:55 Not defending VG but the reason HL crushing counters were such a problem was the backstep issue. You could back step light and be free from getting parried because you slid half a football field back. Since they took it away it’s fine now but yeah
I'll put it this way: -Fullguard that option selects light and heavy --Ok, I will feint my heavy into guardbreak -Mwaha, get crushcountered --Ok I will hardfeint - Mwaha, I just went for a parry instead -Whats more, you have to hard feint all your openers, because I have 3 ways to beat committed blockable attacks. I know you're going to hardfeint or guardbreak, so Ill just start challenging your heavies with bashes. I'm sure you will win a read against me sometime this year :)
After years of making the same Light bash light, light bash undodgeable, and neutral unblockable spam, they tried to do something different and failed. I don't think the Devs know how to make fun heroes anymore. They're all just copy pastes of eachother now with 1 extra gimmick to make them "new"
@@drollyrancher7020Why are we hating on an attempt by Ubisoft to move away from bash-blue offense? The Devs are trying to, essentially, reinvent the wheel so that not every character has the same kit but with different fashion. Even though Sohei shipped horribly at launch, it’s clear that this is a step in the right direction for the creative longevity of the game.
I’m surprised you didn’t go further into how her unblockable range is insane. In a team fight, you’ll be 7 feet away from her and you’ll still get hit by her when she’s not even trying to hit you externally.
I remember coming back to for honor and playing ranked for the first time in like 3 years and the number 2 player on the ladder got matched with me 4 times and I lost all 4 because of V guard being meta cringe
Bro, I actually like to play her kit, and I've reached rep 5 with her, but the emotes, executions and especially fashion suck so bad I don't want to play her anymore
Lost acess to the game back when jormungandr was new. Was a rep like 15 pk, 20 account rep with the rest split between centurion & law daddy. Came back to the game very, very recently. Pirate dodge attack on red into true combo pistol shot into undodgable for like 30 dmg. Given that i am still trying to build back my muscle memory and learn the game, it's hell. And vrang guard is the same. Im just sitting there, wondering what the hell I'm supposed to do? I don't have the reaction time to light parry it yet, i can't attack in, i can't gb feign, the best i had at the time was using pk's soft feign into a dodge attack, but if they had half a brain that wasn't going to work more than once. Maybe twice. However, I've recently picked up warmonger and abuse the extended dodge of the dodge attacks to burn their stam or clobber them with unblockable's if theyre particularly dense. So that's at least a little piece of mind. I swear, at my tax bracket (rep) no one actually knows that you can just gb warmonger out of that dodge attack, and even less know that you can feign it. Or her bash, which can also be feigned. And at least it feels a hell of a lot better winning with that over just hammering the light button for a hundred games in a row like some of the people i see.
@@TheSpookyWizardEmporium the counter to enemy brain damage? Using your own, magnified brain damage! Now if only I could find warmonger fashion that didn't make me want to take a bite out of a cinder block... ah, the pain of rep 3. How I haven't missed it.
feint and parry the dodge attack. You get big damage and the timing is generous. Also try to block lights first. Its way better to block lights 8/10 then to parry 2/10. Anyway good luck soldier (who do you play btw?)
@PrimeRicci been trying it, but I just can't seem to feign fast enough to get the parry off. That or they really just don't think and throw the dodge attack the instant they see red fast enough to prevent said parry. Or I'm just not throwing the parry fast enough- As for main, I used to play peacekeeper, currently warmonger. Rep 13 pk, 3 warmonger (got her a day or two ago).
I miss the ol days of pre-core combat rework when all the bois would just have silly fun on FH for a few hours. No outlander characters nor Gryphon nor Warmonger. The CC rework turned a lot of casuals (majority of the playerbase) away due to the lowering of damage values and smaller attack animation window. I haven't played the game in a year or two at this point, but I am interested in seeing if you guys felt the same about the cc rework or not.
The game would be absolutely unplayable. This is a fact the update was needed or the game wouldnt probably made it past year 5-6. What you like about old for honor is how the game was less sweaty bc people were worse at the game but thats an issue with every pvp game that exists. Id recommend trying it out again tho the game is pretty fun.
I play a lot of VG, I agree she needs nerfs I feel like reducing the crushing counter property window to standard values and reducing the duration of the stun from fullblock would go a long way in fixing the character Perhaps even lowering the damage of Lights, especially the crushing counters I still would like for all Lights to keep the crushing counter property since it's her defining identity, to make up for the fact that she has 0 hyper armor as a Heavy. If you remove the crushing you standardise her and we run into the problem of all heroes becoming "the same" All needs done is nerfing the power of the lights significantly I also find it comically hilarious that Ubi released Sohei after her... a contender for the most broken hero in the current game has been followed up right after by the absolute weakest piece of crap gimmick hero, now that is poetic We should make a bingo card to predict what the next Outlander is gonna be like
I'm hoping for a fist fighter as the next hero but where probs gunna get another unblockable/undodgeable mix up hero again haha Your right about sohei tho, he needs more damage haha 🤣🤣🤣
Her crushing counters need to be tweaked I have countless clips of her crushing counter attacks that she shouldn’t for example I have had her crushing counter with a left follow up light on a top heavy directly into her back that makes genuinely no sense
@@TheSpookyWizardEmporium Wont say they aren't but outlanders are just a medley of moves/mixups that were added to other characters and not considered broken until they were all on the same character.
I stopped playing right around the time Ocelotl came out, came back right after Sohei, I had all the heroes before so naturally I unlocked the rest. I saw VG and was like viking black prior? No.. the whole time playing it, I felt like nothing worked right and it seemed so janky. I hated the chains, there's barely any... But I went 14-0, crushing counters and all guard for days.. still dont like her though.. I'm convinced they're using OOS animations that have been sped up. It's sooo janky
idk, maybe just me but i never really had a problem with vg, and past like rep 3 or something afeera isnt really that bad to fight for me either. Like i keep listening to people say shes op over and over again and then i switch to in game and while yes the VGs are being oppressive its never felt like something i cant handle.

Hi, I found this randomly, and I want to expose my point of view My allegiance is for viking , has always been and will always be. And the viking faction is the least loved one by far, less hero, and unballanced roaster. Good : raider, jorm Boring : warlord, VG Cancer : berserker and highlander Hard to master : valk and shaman Most of the heros didn't changed and if they get reworked .. they become boring. And then VG arrived So don't get me wrong she is too strong, annoying to play with/against and ugly ... and loudy But her design was supposed to be a good anti gank and ( I think ) especially against 'perfect gank' But her tools are unballanced ( like every hero that came out before lol), so people light spam When crush counter has been design to punish light spam... If I may suggest a rework Crush counter only on fist light attack all direction Dodge that counter a hit, shield attack with minimal damage like 5, that push you far away ( the same one after full Block) After full Block only a guaranted light like warlord with two mix up Another light which can be her headbutt ( dodgeable of course ) then follow up by unblockable heavy or zone only. Or a guard break after the guaranted light. And why not, full Block mix up with her unblockable heavy, dodgeable ( hit box fixed .... ) and parry possible of course After full Block undodgeable zone to apply presure during anti gank. After her unblockable 3 option A light that end the mix up A dodgeable shield bash that push far away (no damage ) Or nothing and just guard break to read the shield bash Her succed full Block shouldn't pins you that long of course. She is strong and unballanced... but her design ( of gameplay..) is good I think cause excepted BP warlod shugo, JJ, and ( maybe) medjay, there is no other good anti gank. And for me there is FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR worst than her... I mean... hito.... pirate.... ocelotl They are not cringe... they are nightmare And my demon are glad and shinoby...but that just me lol... Do not hesitate to propose or correct my idea of rework 👍
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium Well I don't have a lot of rep, 192, but I have play since the release of shaman and aramusha I think. So I knew the old Highlander, and the actual one is really ...REALLY Strong. I love his gameplay, full defense or full offense. But let's be honest except his unblockable and kick/grab ... his gimmicks is kind of ... wasted... Cause his defense mod does already everything He is so fast its absurd, I swear on console parrying his heaves ( the last or second one, depending of the combo) is really really hard , The best option is to Block. His light light heavy put a lot of pressure because he is way to fast. So (once again ) I have idea of rework Two different mode very distinct like medjay. Not just by holding a buttons but maybe double press one ... anyway.... two distinct mode DEFENSE MODE : Slower on every move ( dont worry ) Combo Light light Heavy heavy Light heavy Heavy light No more no less Of course crushing counter on every side. Being able to punish a light after a parry, or heavy after a guard break. When you dodge or dash, you Block on the side of your directions. And maybe for his zone, if he does the whole animation (3 hits) he Block the left and right side, like the conq ( a little tool to anti gank ) Hyper armor on his heavy and zone. OFFENSE MODE : Light light heavy heavy Light heavy heavy Heavy heavy Light light zone Kick heavy Grab heavy ( with maybe a little animation like jorm ) Kick feint to grab ( and nothing more lol) Dodge attack And the famous Til Orusstu I'm not writing every mix up cause their will be too many lol But basicly everything can be mix up Dodge attack light heavy dodge attack heavy kick heavy light .... etc etc etc No guard like the current HL Fast dodge that goes much further. Kick and grab of course. His light would be the actual light he have in defense, ( the spamming bullshit hit he can do... direct to the trash ) After dodge kick or grab... I mean.... really a lot of mix up But no hyper armor. And with this rework I think he could be good with an important gimmick respected, a true hybrid between tank and assassin
@@baptistewirz3342 so I'm rep 80 with him and on pc, at higher levels my man struggles to open people up, before his rework I would of been happy with a feintable kick and his offensive dodges to negate undodgeable moves tbh 😂😂
When people cry about light spam they're really just saying "I forgot how to block." Saying highlander's enhanced light opens is problematic, yet you ignore warlord, black prior, and warden. This speaks more to lack of experience in my opinion. Yeah, you should be parrying unblockable, not dodging it. Stand and box. You are making the wrong read if your go to response to an unblockable is dodge. Crying about a kit being defensive just means you haven't learned how to counter the kit. It isn't difficult to hard counter VG. Blocking her attacks, and guard break. Nothing more, simple kit, simple response. 12 minutes of someone saying they don't know how to play the game.
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium that's an interesting take considering that's just my opinion of your opinions. I fundamentally disagree with you; do you find it difficult to disagree with someone without getting upset? I don't. Had I personally attacked you instead of addressing your opinion and why I disagree with your opinion, I'd be more inclined to agree with you, yet here we are, where you're confessing through projection.
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium that's the wonderful thing on the internet, we can disagree and not get upset. No matter how incorrect your opinion may be. It is strange for you to confess that my comment upset you. I'm just glad I could give your channel a modicum of interaction, it really does help you.
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium Noooo 😂 the hate for VG runs DEEP! Cope recognize cope 😂 I'd pay a pound of flesh to have her removed from the game. She's just Warlord for people who don't want to learn how to play. Hitokiri, Toehei, Shaman and Afeera can get bucked as well
Nah your wrong there, i hate snorelord but his fashion is 1000x better than Vg’s. And even raider can have fun customisation compared to vg who has the exact same armour with tiny changes each level
my algorithm is on it today. i always thougut everything about VG was ugly as sin. Hideous moveset and the telegraphing on their attacks are AWFUL Hideous fashion 👎🏽 Superior and enhanced lights meaning their lights stagger you and dont bounce off if they hit (not a problem for me but newer players) VGs all-guard telegraphing is pretty bad as well the STUNLOCKKKK on ganks oh my god😭 and GOD help you if you play Peacekeeper or some hero with no bash opener great video mate🫱🏾🫲🏼

My allegiance is for viking , has always been and will always be.
And the viking faction is the least loved one by far, less hero, and unballanced roaster.
Good : raider, jorm
Boring : warlord, VG
Cancer : berserker and highlander
Hard to master : valk and shaman
Most of the heros didn't changed and if they get reworked .. they become boring.
And then VG arrived
So don't get me wrong she is too strong, annoying to play with/against and ugly ... and loudy
But her design was supposed to be a good anti gank and ( I think ) especially against 'perfect gank'
But her tools are unballanced ( like every hero that came out before lol), so people light spam
When crush counter has been design to punish light spam...
If I may suggest a rework
Crush counter only on fist light attack all direction
Dodge that counter a hit, shield attack with minimal damage like 5, that push you far away ( the same one after full Block)
After full Block only a guaranted light like warlord with two mix up
Another light which can be her headbutt ( dodgeable of course ) then follow up by unblockable heavy or zone only.
Or a guard break after the guaranted light.
And why not, full Block mix up with her unblockable heavy, dodgeable ( hit box fixed .... ) and parry possible of course
After full Block undodgeable zone to apply presure during anti gank.
After her unblockable 3 option

A dodgeable shield bash that push far away (no damage )
Or nothing and just guard break to read the shield bash
Her succed full Block shouldn't pins you that long of course.
She is strong and unballanced... but her design ( of gameplay..) is good I think cause excepted BP warlod shugo, JJ, and ( maybe) medjay, there is no other good anti gank.

So I knew the old Highlander, and the actual one is really ...REALLY Strong.
I love his gameplay, full defense or full offense. But let's be honest except his unblockable and kick/grab ... his gimmicks is kind of ... wasted...
Cause his defense mod does already everything
He is so fast its absurd, I swear on console parrying his heaves ( the last or second one, depending of the combo) is really really hard , The best option is to Block.
His light light heavy put a lot of pressure because he is way to fast.
So (once again ) I have idea of rework
Two different mode very distinct like medjay. Not just by holding a buttons but maybe double press one ... anyway.... two distinct mode
DEFENSE MODE :
Slower on every move ( dont worry )
Combo
Light light
Heavy heavy
Light heavy
Heavy light
No more no less
Of course crushing counter on every side.
Being able to punish a light after a parry, or heavy after a guard break.
When you dodge or dash, you Block on the side of your directions.
And maybe for his zone, if he does the whole animation (3 hits) he Block the left and right side, like the conq ( a little tool to anti gank )
Hyper armor on his heavy and zone.
OFFENSE MODE :
Light light heavy heavy
Light heavy heavy
Heavy heavy
Light light zone
Kick heavy
Grab heavy ( with maybe a little animation like jorm )
Kick feint to grab ( and nothing more lol)
Dodge attack
And the famous Til Orusstu
I'm not writing every mix up cause their will be too many lol
But basicly everything can be mix up
Dodge attack light heavy dodge attack heavy kick heavy light .... etc etc etc
No guard like the current HL
Fast dodge that goes much further.
Kick and grab of course.
His light would be the actual light he have in defense, ( the spamming bullshit hit he can do... direct to the trash )
After dodge kick or grab... I mean.... really a lot of mix up
But no hyper armor.
And with this rework I think he could be good with an important gimmick respected, a true hybrid between tank and assassin
@@baptistewirz3342 so I'm rep 80 with him and on pc, at higher levels my man struggles to open people up, before his rework I would of been happy with a feintable kick and his offensive dodges to negate undodgeable moves tbh 😂😂
@@TheSpookyWizardEmporium Its must different on pc ...
@@baptistewirz3342 I won't lie, it is! With higher FPS lights are way more manageable, even if you can't light parry on PC you can deffo block them!;
When people cry about light spam they're really just saying "I forgot how to block."
Saying highlander's enhanced light opens is problematic, yet you ignore warlord, black prior, and warden. This speaks more to lack of experience in my opinion.
Yeah, you should be parrying unblockable, not dodging it. Stand and box. You are making the wrong read if your go to response to an unblockable is dodge.
Crying about a kit being defensive just means you haven't learned how to counter the kit. It isn't difficult to hard counter VG. Blocking her attacks, and guard break. Nothing more, simple kit, simple response.
12 minutes of someone saying they don't know how to play the game.
@@Kasaron dam homie you sound upset you alright?
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium that's an interesting take considering that's just my opinion of your opinions. I fundamentally disagree with you; do you find it difficult to disagree with someone without getting upset? I don't. Had I personally attacked you instead of addressing your opinion and why I disagree with your opinion, I'd be more inclined to agree with you, yet here we are, where you're confessing through projection.
@Kasaron sure buddy
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium that's the wonderful thing on the internet, we can disagree and not get upset. No matter how incorrect your opinion may be. It is strange for you to confess that my comment upset you. I'm just glad I could give your channel a modicum of interaction, it really does help you.
@Kasaron thanks man, and have a nice one
This is the single strongest cope I've ever seen.
Professor Copendragl, now teaching coping with the cringe arts at Hogwarts.
Love the par/insult there proper inventive!!
So props for that haha
However you're deffo a VG simp haha 😂
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium Noooo 😂 the hate for VG runs DEEP! Cope recognize cope 😂 I'd pay a pound of flesh to have her removed from the game. She's just Warlord for people who don't want to learn how to play. Hitokiri, Toehei, Shaman and Afeera can get bucked as well
So based bro
@@Connor-jt3qr hell yeah 🤙
BASED TAKE
@@Taiji_Wyvern BASED COMMENT! cheers homie 🤙
🤣😂👀
I have a 78 percent winrate with her.. disgusting hero i wish theyd delete her
Dam she needs a one way ticket to Nerftown USA
vgs fashion isn't that bad, id gladly take hers over warlord or raider💀
@@speedywamai4614 that's a solid disagree, warlords fashion is ballin'!!
Raiders is kinda bad tho haha 🤣🤣
Nah your wrong there, i hate snorelord but his fashion is 1000x better than Vg’s. And even raider can have fun customisation compared to vg who has the exact same armour with tiny changes each level
@@aneirinpeterson7388 agree, apart from I love snorelord
my algorithm is on it today. i always thougut everything about VG was ugly as sin.
Hideous moveset and the telegraphing on their attacks are AWFUL
Hideous fashion 👎🏽
Superior and enhanced lights meaning their lights stagger you and dont bounce off if they hit (not a problem for me but newer players)
VGs all-guard telegraphing is pretty bad as well
the STUNLOCKKKK on ganks oh my god😭
and GOD help you if you play Peacekeeper or some hero with no bash opener
great video mate🫱🏾🫲🏼
@@kenyoncarter5908 thank you man!
And yeah you're right she's a bit too good 🤣
@TheSpookyWizardEmporium for sure brother 🤣🫱🏾🫲🏼
I wish she looked like Sif from God of War.
