4069 hours just to impress the ladies for those sexy tactical dodge rolls. Forgot to mention the term frame advantage on the not being able to light on unblockable! Hope you learned something new and appreciate you hanging out here with me. Ill be streaming for twitch drops where ill try to win 100k steel so if youd like to support me there please head over to my twitch and watch me stream for honor! You guys can earn steel too! It starts this Thursday but ill prob stream before too. www.twitch.tv/nakedsol
*What helped me the most was "quit to home." Truly the most unblockable mix tactic. Though I've also heard tales of the fabled "unistall," but again, those are only tales.*
2200ish hours and still decided to watch a video explaining all the things I already know. My win rate went down however so you will be hearing from my lawyers in the next few weeks
Another tip worth mentioning: Ledge. Don’t be afraid to ledge when you have the chance, it won’t make someone come kill you irl or nothing. It is a game mechanic and if someone was dumb enough to position themselves near a ledge, use it to your advantage.
Been playing FH since release. I wish I could quit. But I’ve always wanted a game EXACTLY like this. So I can’t. At its core, I still love it. Still surprised they’re still working on it tbh. When it came out, I thought this game would have a 3 year lifespan. Great video. A lot of the player base NEEDS to watch it
what part of he likes the core of the game, most likely the thing that you do for 99% of gameplay (yknow, skill parries blocks good combat(debatably)) @@patrikpetrucha5536
I love the game too, its incredibly challenging and visceral on the edge of your seat intense, not a lot of games do that for me, I am not really big into multiplayer competitve games but my friends got me into this one, no other game can cause me to keep playing despite living no longer than a minute or two per respawn lol
@wesley6442 me too ive never been big in multi-player games. I used to play zombies solo cuz I jus don't like people 🤣 but this game is stg when I hear people say it's trash or they don't like it.. skill issue?!! 🤣 it will definitely get you worked up an it's hard when u first start cuz you gonna take lots of Ls but it's on another level of gaming. Like chess meets fighting 🥰🤔
To add a point, "don't specialize too hard" you covered the first reason as it helps to know the moves of your opponents, but it's also important to be able to fall back onto another hero when you're just not having a good time with your main
I’ve learned 4 characters fairly well those being Hito PK Pirate and the new girl Guard and while I have played pretty much everyone else and have a rep in all but like 6 characters I’m pretty bad with most of them but having that play time really helps know what they can do and what they probably will do you know when I’m thinking straight enough to use that information
I started playing for honor maybe a week ago, and immediately fell in love with lawbringer. I know hes not that great, but ive been getting a lot better with him and it feels great and hes just a lot of fun. My advice, from a very new player, would be to find a character that just looks neat and has a playstyle you love and use them to learn in the beginning. Ive learned a lot about the game because i stuck with one character that i vibed with for a while. Im now rep 3 with lawbringer and i am gunna grind him out more because that one full white outfit you shared in this video looked so great and i want it. Thanks for your advice!
How’s it going with lawbringer? I just started playing 2 days ago and also instantly became a lawbringer main. But all I hear about him is that he is pretty bad. So is he actually playable against good/really good players, without playing like a god?
@@gaiusoptus4417 they changed his kit in a way I really didn't like so I veered off of him for a bit I don't think he's bad but let's be honest I'm not a good player, I just play what's fun and big man with big stick is fun 👌👌 I got used to the changes and love him again but it's still not the same

Main lawbro here. He's a staller esp if you get those tanky perks and feats. If you want 3 guys to take a long time killing you off I'd recommend him. You gotta know how to parry tho.
I have like 2k hours on this game and have been playing since release. I love for honor and honestly i dont think i ever want to stop playing. Love the vid 🤘❤️
Long time viewer here. I have around 4k hours in the game myself and have been playing since the beta off and on. I've asked this from you before, and you gave the same answer here as you did to me then; Staying calm and enjoying yourself by listening to music while you play also helps you focus and make reactions/reads. Glad you included this at the end of your video. Stay chill
I'm not an amazing player myself, i'm sitting around 500 hours atm, and as someone still in relatively lower mmr games, my biggest piece of advice for people in the same type of queue's as me is to learn to adapt. When you're in lower mmr many players will have incredibly easy pattern to pick up on, whether it's what direction the shaman likes to soft feint her zone from, or someone who just decides to dodge attack every time they see a red indicator, having patience is incredibly important to playing this game. Many people, especially when picking up a new hero, are incredibly focused on what to do themselves and aren't paying attention to enemy habits that can lead to easy damage. As you go further in, there will be less players like this, but you'll never get to those players if you can't beat the spammers. Take this with a grain of salt though, this is all coming from someone who can't beat a light spamming nobushi to save his life. Also great video Sol, keep it up man.
Even the most awful person can give a very good piece of advice, I don't know why I wouldn't take yours knowing that pal so thank you for sharing your experience
I feel so understood and validated lol! I too struggle with light spammers or overly aggressive players, swing to win tactics, its frustrating and brain dead and does not make it enjoyable. I like mix ups and confusing my opponents, trying plan A or B against them, goading an attack out of them but I leverage stamina maintenance and don't fucking blitz them with a flurry of attacks. It feels a bit unbalanced in that the game rewards such aggressive play styles, I literally cannot get a single swing out from my Raider because I get interrupted by someone faster, which is fine, but not when they fucking light spam me
Holy shit this game has been going on for 6 years and i i just came back to it its wild that you content creators have had the loyal base that still watches since then, hopefully the game can grow back to what it was in the beginning before people got pissed at the p2p connecton bs'
What really helps is just thinking of the good player interactions. The amount of funny, kind people you talked to in chat that praised you for your outplays and mindgames. If someone is going out of their way to flame you, its because they most likely had to try very hard to fold you. Btw a 15 minute walk outside works wonders in reminding you nobody cares if you lose in for honor. Its okay!😂
Totally agree, the honorable matches, intense, friendly and competitive. no overly aggressive brain dead light spamming just reading and adapting to each other and doing the respectful bow and "good fight!' after a win or loss. That's what I play for honor for, fair competitive matches but unfortunately most of the time it's toxic inflammatory players that drive you to the brink of insanity lol
I don’t know how they haven’t fixed the guard switching attacks when you get hit from behind. Most annoying getting hit by a heavy that switches last second
one of my biggest gripes is the camera on the ladder is so jarring, you can't see shit until you slide all the way off and then the camera pans in position afterwards, its such a cluster fuck of confusion lol you literally cannot see anything until you are off the ladder for a second or two, a very vulnerable position
Imagine if you could change hero’s while in the middle of a match like overwatch, a lot less annoyance and would be able to see what characters are used the most because when someone gets angry they just switch to a op character
Thats what rematches in duels reveal. The heroes salty players pick to win in rematches are always the same. Shinobi, orochi, hito, aramusha, shaolin, shugoki, pirate, medjay, ocelotl, afeera, black prior, and warlord.
Coming back from 3 year hiatus has been so hard but thank you sol for helping me relearn this game since I don’t have friends that play this game anymore and solo q is painful with attack spamming teammates stunning me or feeding revenge
The problem is the good memories of the game get imbeded into your brain so when you want to quit you remember the game as fun so you come back and endure more pain
I spent a few months heavily focusing on how to improve at this game and within 1 year I went from 48.80% winrate to 51.10%, taking the time to learn to light parry, deflect and bait crushing counters really changed how well my games went. Learning NOT to parry everything changed it even further, sometimes you let them just let em fly and chip you. Play the long con.
I hear ya, I don't really parry unless I am absolutely confident, I just focus on defense/blocking because you get into confrontations where they goad a parry out of you, then you feint and it just gets so confusing and messy, or they guard break you or something.. honestly, just good ole reliable blocking is pretty solid
Sol i freaking love you and your content i realize im 2 weeks late to this specific video i have already watched, but im only now commenting because whilest rewatching this video i realized, after 155 days and 9 hours of playing thus game. I still have things im learning every day like WTF THERES AN FOV SLIDER!?!? That genuinly caught me off guard. Most of the video i already had a good practice on like all the movesets i didnt always go into training mode to learn them but i do have every character above rep 2 or 8 and above so i would say i have a good grasp of all the movesets and yes i agree that helps TREMENDOUSLY in the long term of enjoyment. And i mean honestly just thank you for being One of the Best for honor youtubers i have always loved your humor and... (CoUGh) (COugH) Taste on ThumbNails 😏
I have a bit more than 1k hours and I wouldn’t take them back. For honor is one of the coolest games I’ve ever seen or experienced. I’ve slowed down my for honor gaming a bit but I’ll never stop coming back until I can’t anymore. I love for honor.
man do i love stalling for 7 mins and spamming pings every 5 seconds just for my team to come after i died and the enemies healed, but to deal with my hatred for this game i start playing less and play another game mostly just story games and play music and chill, makes me wonder why i play for honor in the 1st place. 3 years, 1300 hours, the CnBT never goes away
lol! I have like 60 reps in my Valkyrie (my favorite character to play) and yet I am still mediocre with her, I go in wanting to hide my character reps from everyone because If eel they expect me to absolutely dominate, it's like no I just like playing her I am not all that great though
I am totally with you, my earlier reps were plagued with getting demolished by his character, my only advice (in that it works for me) is patience, remember he is a LOT slower than most other characters, like hitokiri he can go for a heavy and switch it up to an unblock-able heavy so just watch for it and prepare for it, also always have in the back of your mind his grapple he does where he picks you up over his head, just learn to watch for it basically, these things all allowed me to deal with shugoki a lot better, its what worked for me at least
@@The_Panda62been comp/pre high lvl in 2 games, had For Honor 2m after release. Played like a week and forgot abt it. NOW i just got it 2 days ago, i’ve tried to master Wardens move set, & watch high lvl players to understand… I can’t lie i’ve got like a 60% win rate & im getting SLAPPEDDD. I only play duels rn, I’ve always adapted to any game rly well, but i’m struggling a bit haha. LIKE I WANNA HEAVY PARRY but then i get killed cuz it’s a feint, i try the same on an unblockable then he gb or lights me, even if i get my bash i can only get 2 lights cuz my Unblockable is blockable in parry, i cld feint but gb only 2 lights again NO DAMAGE… U GET IT😭 It also all happens so quick my brain tryna react to everything hurts. Idk character move sets except 5-6 or so, but just off opponents. It’s abt to take me MONTHS & ion wanna wait i jus wanna b good like wtfffff💀 PPL SAY WARDEN TOP TIER DUELIST, i may b ass rn but dude how is he good, he’s so predictable idk how to win against good players🥱🤝🏻
1000 hour player here. A very important piece of advice that unironically helped me is: *Don't take this game too seriously* Really. It's not that important, take the game as it is, a game. Try to find joy in your play, since that's why you play the game. Don't take everything too personal, if you had a bad match, you're free to leave and get into a new one. Use your time playing this game as something positive, rather than something negative, just sit back, relax a bit and play the game. This actually raised my K/D ratio by a lot. So, yeah, don't be too tough on yourself, buddy, enjoy the game.
Dude, I've found the secret sauce to becoming the best FH player out there ! I just close my eyes and fall asleep and then dream about getting the best reads and mega reaction timing and that's it - no one can beat me ! There is no latency in dreams you know ;)
Actual informative video with good jokes not taking away from the content. Take my sub good man...and wish me luck cuz im jumping in to this game for the first time and i already feel like that guy that can barely build a wall while a 12 year old already build a mansion in fortnite when starting this game lmao
4:18 I felt this on a emotional level can’t tell you how many times I yelled at my teammates like they can hear me to come help when I’m fighting a 3v1 gank trying to capture a zone 😂
I love the fact that this is the only game I know where people have tips on how to stay positive. I have over 1000 hours in the game and almost everytime I play I hate myself for playing it. But every night I get on with a buddy and hate myself all over again. Something about the pain makes it fun, especially with a friend.
Play the objective in the objective modes. Call for help if multiple enemies are approaching your point or a character you struggle against is apptoaching your point. If you join a game halfway though, figure out where youd help gain points fastest to unlock your feats. If the enemy owns all 3 points, hit ~1/3-1/2 of the minions in the mid then claim empty points. For example, youd go from spawn to B and throw 2-3 attacks, capture the empty A, help the fight on C, adapt as the match develops.
Block the enemy from your point, fight on the edge or in front of your point to benefit from the healing and continuing to gain points. Fight them on their points, points dont feed the score while they're contested.
The biggest thing that helped me when i was starting for honor os that my friend took me into the training grounds and helped me practice parrying he took it slow at first then started to throw in feints it really hellped
i think one thing thats really helped me is just understanding that youre playing a game at the end of the day. its not a job (for most people at least) and its not a competition for money. So why take it so seriously? You should mess around, play whatever character you wanna play and play them however you want to because its a game and games are supposed to be fun. I know its difficult to have fun in this god forsaken game that has "honor" in its name for some reason but still. Hope everyone who reads this has a wonderful day
i quit the first year it released. i didnt think itd last long coz of all the problems back then but wow never wouldve guessed for honor would just slowly chug along through the years. all thanks to the players
Fun tip. Laugh as your enemy rages sometimes that hyena cackle will keep them slipping on you as you sieze on their mistakes. When it comes to general character playing id recommend play that character until the next rep eventually you get better with their moves
I look at 4069 hours into this game and wonder what that time into piano or guitar would look like. Most ive ever put into a game is about 1800-2000 (Destiny) hell I wish I had that time back into piano or guitar myself but 4069 😮. Crazy how time flies! i used to love this game ❤
The one thing that frustrates me. I’ll bait someone to throw a heavy and go for a gb. Somehow everyone can heavy feint to gb counter so quick or the attack goes through the gb. When I try to heavy feint gb counter it doesn’t work. It’s so inconsistent.
what I hate so much is characters like Jormungandr if I miss my gut punch to do the jotuun slam for a shield, it's so punishable and they get a free guard break on me, no matter if I KNOW they are going to go for it, countering doesn't work it's like its disabled temporarily and its super annoying
i love that you brought up the game being called for honor. I've always found it funny that a game about trying to kill people in the scummiest ways possible is called that.
i am playing for fun, and this whole information overloaded my brain so much, that i think i will be able to defeat a monkey brained gryphon using warmommy
Main thing that helped me out was I didn’t know you could increase ur fov on Xbox, let alone change it to where u get more frames than quality. Big thanks
What helps me is knowing every characters moves so you know how to combat them. Also i switch up characters pretty often. I rotate about 8 or so characters quite regularly. Ive been playing since 2018.
I played the game like 3-4 years ago. Not super consistently, but with the lads. Sure we were competitive, but we didn't play longer than a month. Recently i literally woke up one day and was like "I NEEED ITTT" And havent stopped since. The battlefield.... It calls to me. Im literally never dropping the game lmfao - i really love it and am already a really good player. Still want to and must get better. Best tip i can give you: Seriously focus more on your own gameplay if you play objectives. And most importantly - especially important. CHILL OUT - get a little mad and invested, but not too much. Just focus Also in even 10% the playtime im 200% agreeing with everything said. Shit even finally got full explanations for things that i had slight speculations on. Also if you don't have friends. Seriously use bots It works and helps. Sadly im a solo player mostly Also 12:20 minion should be a hero because "Complete 6 matches with a hero of any faction" challenge makes it sound like theres an option to play the game.... Without a hero? Of a faction at least
Tbh I think it can be pretty exciting when both sides are able to get revenge, I’ve had so many moments where I’d rather give the opponent revenge simply because my teammate or myself will be too worried about feeding and the stalls get boring for both sides. Many times I’ve had a duo try to gank me and they just babysit each other, I’m left poking at one before they get impatient and try to gank again. I’ve had times where I literally can’t even parry or dodge a gank because it’s all guaranteed with almost 0 revenge feed. I believe revenge definitely needs to looked at by the devs and find a way to make their game feel more rewarding when someone finds themselves being ganked without a teammate. If you’re alone within a certain range in a gank it should be either 1.5x revenge or double. When there’s a team fight it stays the same as always.
Call me crazy when I say I’d rather give revenge in order to make the fight more exciting, but sometimes it’s fun to be a troll. I love to just stand there and see someone’s pressure when they have revenge lol. People get so frantic it’s adorable
broooooo i’ve ran into you and i never knew who you were this is my 1st time watching bc you came up on my new page i guess but i’ve seen you like 4-5 times and they’ve always been good games but it’s cool to see you on here
Definitely my number one game for years now!! I just got a love for it i cant explain even tho it pisses me off sometimes😂😂 then they just put the hero in ive prayed for (Aztec) so i cant wait to get off work to play him.. but thanks for the advice i still have much to learn
I made my emblem an ice cream cone and put the symbol on my guy and now I'm just happy to see the silly emblem and I don't tilt. I also take any loss as a learning experience.
Right? lol when my friends aren't on I do that sometimes, maybe for orders but it's still so annoying to be top of the leader board kills in the double digits and you still lose

Coming back from 3 year hiatus has been so hard but thank you sol for helping me relearn this game since I don’t have friends that play this game anymore and solo q is painful with attack spamming teammates stunning me or feeding revenge
The problem is the good memories of the game get imbeded into your brain so when you want to quit you remember the game as fun so you come back and endure more pain
For honor is a beautiful, genuine and unique game that is truly one of its kind.
The fighting game genre is pretty niche and for honor is actually pretty big by those standards
@@ravinkrishnan3183 very big. The only game to do it
This man said commit sodoku thats a board game homie you mean sepuku
I spent a few months heavily focusing on how to improve at this game and within 1 year I went from 48.80% winrate to 51.10%, taking the time to learn to light parry, deflect and bait crushing counters really changed how well my games went. Learning NOT to parry everything changed it even further, sometimes you let them just let em fly and chip you. Play the long con.
I hear ya, I don't really parry unless I am absolutely confident, I just focus on defense/blocking because you get into confrontations where they goad a parry out of you, then you feint and it just gets so confusing and messy, or they guard break you or something.. honestly, just good ole reliable blocking is pretty solid
12:06 I guess I got high chances because I found a goth mommy! I'll take it! Lol, loved the video Sol glad to see you still making for honor content.
Sol i freaking love you and your content i realize im 2 weeks late to this specific video i have already watched, but im only now commenting because whilest rewatching this video i realized, after 155 days and 9 hours of playing thus game. I still have things im learning every day like WTF THERES AN FOV SLIDER!?!? That genuinly caught me off guard. Most of the video i already had a good practice on like all the movesets i didnt always go into training mode to learn them but i do have every character above rep 2 or 8 and above so i would say i have a good grasp of all the movesets and yes i agree that helps TREMENDOUSLY in the long term of enjoyment.
And i mean honestly just thank you for being One of the Best for honor youtubers i have always loved your humor and...

I have a bit more than 1k hours and I wouldn’t take them back. For honor is one of the coolest games I’ve ever seen or experienced. I’ve slowed down my for honor gaming a bit but I’ll never stop coming back until I can’t anymore. I love for honor.
You are now my favorite creator and have very accurately described my anguish and then gave me tips.
man do i love stalling for 7 mins and spamming pings every 5 seconds just for my team to come after i died and the enemies healed, but to deal with my hatred for this game i start playing less and play another game mostly just story games and play music and chill, makes me wonder why i play for honor in the 1st place. 3 years, 1300 hours, the CnBT never goes away
Love this, thank you daddy sol. 3,000 hours and I still don't have a good reason to play this game time and time again
As a guy with almost 6,000 hours and 5,000 of that coming from Warden I hate my life.
lol! I have like 60 reps in my Valkyrie (my favorite character to play) and yet I am still mediocre with her, I go in wanting to hide my character reps from everyone because If eel they expect me to absolutely dominate, it's like no I just like playing her I am not all that great though
A couple hundred hours in and I’ve still never successfully parried a shugoki. No idea how tf to fight that annoying ass dude
I am totally with you, my earlier reps were plagued with getting demolished by his character, my only advice (in that it works for me) is patience, remember he is a LOT slower than most other characters, like hitokiri he can go for a heavy and switch it up to an unblock-able heavy so just watch for it and prepare for it, also always have in the back of your mind his grapple he does where he picks you up over his head, just learn to watch for it basically, these things all allowed me to deal with shugoki a lot better, its what worked for me at least
@@wesley6442 I’m a free man for now, haven’t played for honor in like 8 months. Until the addiction takes over again.
@@The_Panda62been comp/pre high lvl in 2 games, had For Honor 2m after release. Played like a week and forgot abt it. NOW i just got it 2 days ago, i’ve tried to master Wardens move set, & watch high lvl players to understand… I can’t lie i’ve got like a 60% win rate & im getting SLAPPEDDD. I only play duels rn, I’ve always adapted to any game rly well, but i’m struggling a bit haha. LIKE I WANNA HEAVY PARRY but then i get killed cuz it’s a feint, i try the same on an unblockable then he gb or lights me, even if i get my bash i can only get 2 lights cuz my Unblockable is blockable in parry, i cld feint but gb only 2 lights again NO DAMAGE… U GET IT😭 It also all happens so quick my brain tryna react to everything hurts. Idk character move sets except 5-6 or so, but just off opponents. It’s abt to take me MONTHS & ion wanna wait i jus wanna b good like wtfffff💀 PPL SAY WARDEN TOP TIER DUELIST, i may b ass rn but dude how is he good, he’s so predictable idk how to win against good players🥱🤝🏻
I f*cking LOVE this game!!
Oh, wise box, hear my calls!
I come to seek answers.
Tell us the truth, why do we keep coming back?
“They can’t keep getting away with this!” 😂😂😂 genuine laugh haha! Good one!
Solid coming in with another banger
Smol tip for people that cannot react, keep your guard matching your opponent's zone attack direction
Damn bro I’ve been thinking about committing sudoku?
Your fancy shmancy tier list won’t stop me from playing warden in 4v4 scenarios and thrive
I only got like 1751 hours in and my life is living torment
Bumping “Im just Ken” by Ryan Gosling while playing FH is peak Dopamine
O good, I thought I was the only one who felt this way about the game. I’m so glad to hear my rage is justified
1000 hour player here.
A very important piece of advice that unironically helped me is: *Don't take this game too seriously*
Really. It's not that important, take the game as it is, a game. Try to find joy in your play, since that's why you play the game.
Don't take everything too personal, if you had a bad match, you're free to leave and get into a new one.
Use your time playing this game as something positive, rather than something negative, just sit back, relax a bit and play the game.
This actually raised my K/D ratio by a lot. So, yeah, don't be too tough on yourself, buddy, enjoy the game.
Very nice! now let's see a video of what to do when there's a Nobushi on the enemy team. Every time i blink my health is gone
"Mitigating the symptoms of depression" as the final tip for a videogame is actually beyond crazy.
4000 hours of pain
"So we can all one day be as good as freeze" lmao
Dude, I've found the secret sauce to becoming the best FH player out there ! I just close my eyes and fall asleep and then dream about getting the best reads and mega reaction timing and that's it - no one can beat me !
There is no latency in dreams you know ;)
Actual informative video with good jokes not taking away from the content. Take my sub good man...and wish me luck cuz im jumping in to this game for the first time and i already feel like that guy that can barely build a wall while a 12 year old already build a mansion in fortnite when starting this game lmao
Thank you for this video, lots of useful info
"if you make a mistake, dont bother fixing it, make another mistake so people forget about the first one" genuinely good advice
4:18 I felt this on a emotional level can’t tell you how many times I yelled at my teammates like they can hear me to come help when I’m fighting a 3v1 gank trying to capture a zone 😂
There are no scummy chains or mixups, there are only those that you are happy when they land, and those that make you feel dirty when they land
I love the fact that this is the only game I know where people have tips on how to stay positive. I have over 1000 hours in the game and almost everytime I play I hate myself for playing it. But every night I get on with a buddy and hate myself all over again. Something about the pain makes it fun, especially with a friend.
Play the objective in the objective modes. Call for help if multiple enemies are approaching your point or a character you struggle against is apptoaching your point.
If you join a game halfway though, figure out where youd help gain points fastest to unlock your feats. If the enemy owns all 3 points, hit ~1/3-1/2 of the minions in the mid then claim empty points. For example, youd go from spawn to B and throw 2-3 attacks, capture the empty A, help the fight on C, adapt as the match develops.
Block the enemy from your point, fight on the edge or in front of your point to benefit from the healing and continuing to gain points.
Fight them on their points, points dont feed the score while they're contested.
The biggest thing that helped me when i was starting for honor os that my friend took me into the training grounds and helped me practice parrying he took it slow at first then started to throw in feints it really hellped
I already know all of this but I really appreciate you, because there must be a lot of people that didn’t know any of this!! ❤❤❤
i think one thing thats really helped me is just understanding that youre playing a game at the end of the day. its not a job (for most people at least) and its not a competition for money. So why take it so seriously? You should mess around, play whatever character you wanna play and play them however you want to because its a game and games are supposed to be fun. I know its difficult to have fun in this god forsaken game that has "honor" in its name for some reason but still. Hope everyone who reads this has a wonderful day
i quit the first year it released. i didnt think itd last long coz of all the problems back then
but wow never wouldve guessed for honor would just slowly chug along through the years. all thanks to the players
The “where is my team “felt that so many times 😂
Fun tip. Laugh as your enemy rages sometimes that hyena cackle will keep them slipping on you as you sieze on their mistakes. When it comes to general character playing id recommend play that character until the next rep eventually you get better with their moves
Why is for honor like a crack addiction, you can never put it down for long…
I look at 4069 hours into this game and wonder what that time into piano or guitar would look like.
Most ive ever put into a game is about 1800-2000 (Destiny) hell I wish I had that time back into piano or guitar myself but 4069 😮.
Crazy how time flies! i used to love this game ❤
What a great selection of songs, man
The one thing that frustrates me. I’ll bait someone to throw a heavy and go for a gb. Somehow everyone can heavy feint to gb counter so quick or the attack goes through the gb. When I try to heavy feint gb counter it doesn’t work. It’s so inconsistent.
what I hate so much is characters like Jormungandr if I miss my gut punch to do the jotuun slam for a shield, it's so punishable and they get a free guard break on me, no matter if I KNOW they are going to go for it, countering doesn't work it's like its disabled temporarily and its super annoying
My monkey brain understood cery little of this however what I did understand help drastically
Funny that anyone would think 4000 hours is a lot when the game has been out for 6 and a half years
0:57 chad logic
(haven’t seen any of the video) this video can be summed up quickly. that duels are the best.
i love that you brought up the game being called for honor. I've always found it funny that a game about trying to kill people in the scummiest ways possible is called that.
These are some amazing tips Sol ❤ just in general for everyone.
I recently relapsed into for honor again and this video will hopefully help me make it through this episode
Same here bro but only problem is none of my friends play fh anymore so it is difficult getting hit-stunned by my own teammates
i am playing for fun, and this whole information overloaded my brain so much, that i think i will be able to defeat a monkey brained gryphon using warmommy
All I could think about was if I left my Gwent game on in the background somewhere I kept pausing looking for music source
I was gonna stop playing for honor. Then I watched this video, the cycle never ends.
Main thing that helped me out was I didn’t know you could increase ur fov on Xbox, let alone change it to where u get more frames than quality. Big thanks
What helps me is knowing every characters moves so you know how to combat them. Also i switch up characters pretty often. I rotate about 8 or so characters quite regularly. Ive been playing since 2018.
🙌🏾 just came back to the game recently from stopping after season two I’m beyond confused 🤣 thanks for this
Sol, HE CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT. He can’t keep getting away with it. Good upload 👍
I played the game like 3-4 years ago.
Not super consistently, but with the lads. Sure we were competitive, but we didn't play longer than a month.
Recently i literally woke up one day and was like "I NEEED ITTT"
And havent stopped since.
The battlefield.... It calls to me.
Im literally never dropping the game lmfao - i really love it and am already a really good player.
Still want to and must get better.
Best tip i can give you:
Seriously focus more on your own gameplay if you play objectives.
And most importantly - especially important.
CHILL OUT - get a little mad and invested, but not too much. Just focus
Also in even 10% the playtime im 200% agreeing with everything said.
Shit even finally got full explanations for things that i had slight speculations on.
Also if you don't have friends. Seriously use bots
It works and helps. Sadly im a solo player mostly
Also 12:20 minion should be a hero because "Complete 6 matches with a hero of any faction" challenge makes it sound like theres an option to play the game.... Without a hero? Of a faction at least
Good to see a fellow hardcore fan, Ive got 4500 myself
I just started last week, and I completely understand your pain
In my hours, I have learned that there is no Honor in For Honor.
The one thing i learned about for honor is the amount of r34 on shaman is overwhelmingly infinite
Tbh I think it can be pretty exciting when both sides are able to get revenge, I’ve had so many moments where I’d rather give the opponent revenge simply because my teammate or myself will be too worried about feeding and the stalls get boring for both sides. Many times I’ve had a duo try to gank me and they just babysit each other, I’m left poking at one before they get impatient and try to gank again. I’ve had times where I literally can’t even parry or dodge a gank because it’s all guaranteed with almost 0 revenge feed. I believe revenge definitely needs to looked at by the devs and find a way to make their game feel more rewarding when someone finds themselves being ganked without a teammate. If you’re alone within a certain range in a gank it should be either 1.5x revenge or double. When there’s a team fight it stays the same as always.
Call me crazy when I say I’d rather give revenge in order to make the fight more exciting, but sometimes it’s fun to be a troll. I love to just stand there and see someone’s pressure when they have revenge lol. People get so frantic it’s adorable
@@leprosylake2581fear a nuxia with revenge who knows how to play her
Missed oportunity to call the video "I played 4000 hours of For Honor so you don't have to"
😭
I just found out about this game 2 weeks ago and I'm addicted.... even tho I'm losing a lot.
anime expe- hmmghph solid sol sama you should make some hero role guides! the section where you talked about ur warden play style was fantastic
broooooo i’ve ran into you and i never knew who you were this is my 1st time watching bc you came up on my new page i guess but i’ve seen you like 4-5 times and they’ve always been good games but it’s cool to see you on here
Definitely my number one game for years now!! I just got a love for it i cant explain even tho it pisses me off sometimes😂😂 then they just put the hero in ive prayed for (Aztec) so i cant wait to get off work to play him.. but thanks for the advice i still have much to learn
I made my emblem an ice cream cone and put the symbol on my guy and now I'm just happy to see the silly emblem and I don't tilt.
I also take any loss as a learning experience.
unless you are Faraam, or fight a bunch of skillless enemies,.... or sth like that... you are my hero! :D
Committing sudoku? Erm aksually its seppeku!
All warden mains, not a gank character huh? Hold my beer.
This man is obviously being held hostage by Ubisoft we need to help him
You forgot the most important tip
To have fun and not worry too much
I didn’t learn anything new but I love your personality brother 💪🏾I hope we run into each other one day
Really good information , thanks sr.
How to stay happy playing For Honor, play against the Ai😂
Right? lol when my friends aren't on I do that sometimes, maybe for orders but it's still so annoying to be top of the leader board kills in the double digits and you still lose
father do you plan to release your piano for us poor sols
