One little-known tip: when fighting multiple people, if you guard break one, then target swap to the other, then forward throw, you will always throw the first guy directly at the second, potentially staggering both
@@marcusalbino5920 Yes, but you have to forward throw specifically. Since you're pointed directly at opponent #2 after the target switch, you'll throw opponent #1 directly at them
Another tip for the newer players out there: please, whenever you are ganking, stop and take a second to see what your teammates are doing, and if they are setting up something, time your attack with the end of their combo. Thank you very much.
Just be careful with those GB sidesteps on Forge around the hammers. You can easily walk into those hammers on accident with GB sidesteps if you're not careful.
5. it's unreactable to crushing-counter a light attack IF you have to switch your guard for it, because guard has to be active to throw attacks. when unsure, parry instead 4. for long throwable animations, you can guard-swap right after activating it to look like you shoot person B, when in reality projectiles goes towards person A 3. if you try to move LEFT or RIGHT during a successful guardbreak while doing an attack, you can reposition yourself. works when cornered 2. recovery for the enemy when you land a GB is the same and starts only once you throw off an attack. you have 800ms to throw that attack, don't panic and light when a heavy is assured 1. all pin moves have full GB vulnerability when landing. moves such as glad's skwewer or cent's fully charged heavy
I can't even consistently block light attacks with my poor reaction time and my poor fps (30 or below most of the time), so crushing counter is not on my mind right now xD
Yes! I have 1200h on this game, and this game have so much potential that i haven't planned to stop yet. I just hope i could soon have my own home sweet home and buy a better PC
@@yo-vy8rd I can tell you it is. When my computer have decided he didn't want to go higher than 30 fps, it's REALLY a pain in the a##. My defense became toilet paper
Winning strategy on breach and counters. I know it's not your favorite mode but my friends and I love it! Also, is the Guardian worth killing?, The buffs are cool but you spent 2-3 minutes fighting guardian instead of objectives(except for Jang Jun of course infinite stamina will him is pretty awesome! ).
Freeze: *does a video where explains how to use correctly crushing counters* Some highlanders that when spamming lights do casual crushing counters: "jokes on you, im onto that shit"

Hey freeze can we get a video on each characters best option for mid clearing? I had a REP 70 GLAD ON MY TEAM THAT DID A LIGHT INTO SKEWER FOR 3 GAMES IN A ROW FOR HIS MID CLEAR UNTIL HE LEFT THE LOBBY.
Just started playing the game this past weekend. Discovered your channel and it has helped immensely to get myself up to speed. Just out of curiosity, what is your controller setup or do you happen to have a guide for it? I recently just switched to guard mode to toggle so that I could be free to not be holding down the button which lead me to re-map guard to right stick press. Still trying to find better spots for the other buttons, like if it'd be better to move one of the attacks to one of the triggers (currently have guard break as left trigger since I moved guard mode). Thanks for any input. Subbed, liked, and now commented.
all i saw was the title. Step 1: play a class with hyper armor. Step 2: make sure its also a class with easily thrown unblockables. Step 3: make sure you never fight alone. Step 4: find ut what class that is. Step 5: play that class. BOOM For Honor in a nutshell.
Yes, 500 ms light attacks are in the realms of reactable for most Players. (No formal calculation) Let's say the average reaction time is around 250ms A guard swap takes 100 ms And if we take into consideration lag and input delay this number may shoot up to around 450ms. So on normal days it should work out, that being said if you have a bad day, where you feel exhausted it may happen that a lot more attacks are hitting you. I always advice to sprinkle predictions into the mix. A good prediction can take away reactions problems Depending on the type of attack I advice to skewer your focus, if it's a 500 ms light attack, reacting to it is the way to go, if it's 400ms then predict it. You will otherwise eat a lot of them. And if you don't trust your reactions/set up then focus more on predictions. Are you a new player?
@@ortsee3636 Hardly. (Or, well, it depends on your standards I suppose.) I've got 600+ hours in this game. It's just that I recently noticed that I may not be able to react to neutral lights, or at least that it's inconsistent, and that what I previously thought were reactions were actually subconscious reads. I wondered if there was some change from the CCU that I missed or something. Good to know that it should be physically possible, at least. I've kind of just been praying people won't notice that merely pressing the light button is sometimes quite an effective way to kill me, at least most times. Thanks for the response.
@@sirreginaldfishingtonxvii6149 The CCU made a little change that is most definitely affecting you The first 100ms of the indicator are invisible Meaning a 500ms attack has an indicator of 400ms. That change was made for light attacks to be more viable, so lot more can land You are not alone, a lot of people have the same struggles as you. Try and practice and use the tools given by the devs. You can do it!
It seems like my reactions are 50-100 milliseconds too slow, and I've been at it for quite a while now. I'm not sure if I'll ever get it honestly. I know what the ccu did, and I think it was a good change overall, but if I can't block neutral lights that makes them guaranteed damage, and I have to try to read them, which is easier said than done since they can come out at any time. I can't even recall if I could consistently block lights before the ccu at this point since I'm just used to it. And it seems I have trouble parrying the lights after that too, but that's likely just because I'm not good enough at reading or because my internet connection is acting up. This means I have two options: -Become some kind of reading god to have even the most basic of defense, which still likely wouldn't work sometimes due to Internet shenanigans. -Always attack first and be on the offensive as much as possible to avoid having to be defensive in the first place. -Keep trying, I guess. I just want to play the game, and I still enjoy it, but I honestly feel kind of handicapped here. I mighy just be doomed to forever have shit defense.
I have a neat trick for anyone newer to the game or you're fighting someone that's far more experienced than you in a 1v1 DONT KEEP DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN
Here are 5x tips, to make you think that you're a better player: 1. Light-Spam 2. Bash-Spam 3. Side-Dodge Spam 4. Run away from a fight, like a pussy 5. Shriek in terror, when you're about to get hit, then refer to Tip #3. *THAT ABOUT SUMS UP THE SCRUBS' BOOK OF TIPS, BECAUSE NO ONE UNDERSTANDS HOW TO PLAY THIS GAME, THE RIGHT WAY!*
Hello from the future. While I agree with you on the topic in defense of spammers, the game doesn't do s-word to teach new players how to actually play. I started the game about less than a week ago and I have been reading like I'm in college again. Most people wouldn't be this passionate about a video game. First of all, the game doesn't have a thorough tutorial mode. It teaches you just the very basics. Game has very interesting mechanics adds up or cancels one another. And many different heroes who combine these in various ways. Some movesets are quite complicated to pull off for casual players. Some heroes are hard to react without proper knowledge of their movesets. I personally have never played a similar game that requires this much reflex and coordination. People respond to these the way they feel secure, with low risk actions. Light spam, dodge spam etc. and the game doesn't do anything to change these habits. Just the other day I saw a hero, nobushi I think , spamming until she is OOS then runs away and I thought man what an idiot. Today I learned that she has a feat that rewards this type of behavior...
It saddens me to see how almost half of the fans & community where so quick to be so disloyal & unappreciative to the Devs & this amazing one of kind of game, you would think folks would be a bit more understanding with the given circumstances but all I mostly seen the past 2 or 3 yrs was " the game is dead,the Devs are idiots an don't play their own game,etc .",FH the reason I even got back into gaming in 2017 when it came out an I bought myself the game as a Vday gift,so as a overall rep of 680+, day 1 rep 70 PK savage main, Knights faction 4 life with over 200 days of game time on Xbox , I promise u there is no one who luvs this game more then me. I luv all the heros & everything about the game an I just want the game ,hero & gameplay balancing an everything else to be as fair as possible then maybe we can see the game blossom on a competitive level. On another note I actually luv Tribute & would luv to see some of the current game modes reworked/revamped bcuz there are several ideas to bring these game modes back to life. Reflex gaurd is the next biggest unfair disadvantage that needs to be addressed also along with some better UI for certain things. I'm so proud that the Dev team came back so strong for the new season when half the community counted them out & shitted on them, this by far is the best season since MF when the Wu-lin came an I can't wait to kick y'all ass on Xbox this weekend on my off days so remember the name VampWolf Knight!!

Great video as always, I was actually unaware of target swapping with projectile feats!
For the title just keep adding “er”s and see how longer it can get eventually
It'll just get longerer
One little-known tip: when fighting multiple people, if you guard break one, then target swap to the other, then forward throw, you will always throw the first guy directly at the second, potentially staggering both
Damn that's actually a good tip. Aiming that throw is hard. I'll try that.
@@warhero40000 Yeah, throws are always a bit finicky, & dangerous enough in group fights. This makes them at least somewhat useful in those situations
So you guard break then target swap and just click throw?
@@marcusalbino5920 Yes, but you have to forward throw specifically. Since you're pointed directly at opponent #2 after the target switch, you'll throw opponent #1 directly at them

Yes to this. I hate when I'm in a 1v1 and my team mate runs in spamming attacks and feeds revenge.

Thank you, Freeze. I feel Bester now.
That first tip is super useful.
this video makes me realize id need a teacher for this game i barely know basics
oh my god, does more of these zero to death combos exist ?? I knew warden and cent from havok but glad and nobushi does work too. Im fascinated.
Anyone who can set up a decent gank can 100 to 0 you with almost any character
@@supereffective8292 yeah of course but this combo just needed two people and one Gb to zero him
Yes Freeze has a video out called Assorted ganks an it has every hero gank in it
@@calviniu2891 yes. Two people down with their timings is all you need, regardless of character. If they are good enough the gb is not needed at all.

I believe if the glad starts a skewer throw he is then safe from gbs, put not attack damage.

Ability to cc light on reaction requires you to react 200ms or less isnt it? It should be possible atleast in training mode

@@duppe. that's basically cheating tho. i think they can literally report you for that. exploiting bugs.
