You're not the first (and might probably not be the last) to butcher the name xD Glad the piece worked very well!!! The vid is solid (once again) - though fairly disappointed his emote spams aren't as varied xD
Theory: the next heroes will be 2 vikings: one having just viking stuff and the other being cross faction to keep with the theme that the knights got. The same would happen for the others as well
WuLin will probably still get boned out of a hero tho because of profit margin, plus if ZahnHu is evidence of anything we are a assassin and heavy away from this assuming that they want to stay class consistent.
@@samfish2550 If they would want that they wouldnt have put Gryphon in the Knight faction tho. Now we have 9 knights and only 7 vikings and samurai... and the wu lin are even worse with only 5... and even when they would have made him a viking (would fit best after knights) he is still a hybrid and not a heavy...
8:05 Note - Lawbringer does not follow up with anything after a whiffed shove. It resets him back to neutral. It's because of his low recoveries that he might as well be able to chain into something, because he has the ability to parry after a whiffed shove.
Sooo if we're getting story mode characters then that must mean that next year will probably be a Viking Horkos (or a villain from some other unforseen hostile faction) and the protagonist hero will who will fight against him/her will probably be Stigandr.
2:48 He’s actually part Knight, part, Viking, part, Samurai, part Wu Lin, AND part *Greek,* as said by the devs in the Warriors Den livestream. The one you referred to as *Knight* armor (on the far left) is actually the Greek armor. Correct me if I’m wrong but that’s what I remember the devs saying.
Dude i am gonna be a Gryphon main, it's like all my favorite parts of characters in a support role, with a hero that is strong but not OP. Finally we get something that seems legitimately balanced
My friend got me back into For Honor after not playing it for almost a year. I think the last time I played was right before Gryphon came out. Now I have him, and cant stop playing him. Not only is he basically an alternate version of my favorite hero, but his style is perfect too. The default armor he starts with reminds me of the characters I would make in Mount and Blade Warband. Big dudes in scale mail, carrying a bardiche. It's so awesome, cant wait to play him more after work
I’ve had this idea for some time. I always thought it would be neat to get armor based off of the faction you’re allied with for your heroes. Like knight themed armor for your samurai or Viking characters since you’re fighting under the knights
The holy hand grenade of Antioch? Now remember to count to three. To four you shall not count. To two, you shall not count. Three is the number you shall count to.
I'm definitely playing him out of the pure idolization and respect I have for him, which grew during the games Story Mode. I will not be changing his armor from the default look, but I will be striving for the weapon he uses in the trailer. Great video dude! Can't wait to play as him.
If I say it like this, he's the first hero ever that I bought for money instead of waiting for the steel buy. I been having a blast using him. As for style, honestly I'm split between the spartan like set or mixing one of his early sets with the flip open Lawbringer helm, kinda like what you did in some clips.
most men are waiting for cyberpunk 2077 we are not most men. we are mercenaries. we seek for the past, for honor. the clock is ticking gentlemen. let's begin.
I’m super excited for this season. Definitely think his heavy may get changed up, as for how I’ll dress him up..Viking Gryphon do be looking spicy. As much as it is an unpopular opinion that adding story characters is cool, I do wanna see some figures come in. As long as they bring them out and they aren’t busted, it’s always nice to have more faces to the roster. Great vid btw!
This is most likely due to people having a million complaints. Example: Too much damage, he killed me so he needs to be nerfed, why he have so much health ubi?! Honestly I've seen it all and too me I see those people as kids rage quiting 3 or 4 times a day on For honor.
if they are adding story hero to online then I want stone from the knight faction added and his headgear, that skull with the spikes was always badass to me and I would love to see him with a mace or something, but maybe other characters, who knows maybe they'll add another hero from history or just another character from the story.
I wish lawbringer had an on and off selection for his cape because Apollyon can have that pointy thing on the front piece called a Berber and a cape that can be on or off making it like she has more customization. I wish Ubisoft would do this with more heroes.
Aight You kept your word, and for that I am grateful *but fr. Why does he have his visor UP out of all the things that ARnT ReAliStic in this game. This one really shits in my egg salad*
I know its early to say, but i think the new hero will be warden 2.0, think about it, it makes sense in the story. Gryphon said the warden want to make ally's to all factions, so the next will be warden 2.0
Wanna say that Griphon's starting armour sets are based on russian vityaz setting who also were wearing viking and mongolian-like armours. and all this mixing asian/european stiles and sets is also characterise early russian warriors
ik this is beyond late but they always keep certain ornaments from campaign characters locked away or given to someone else like the lion shoulders and also the skull tied to stones helmet. You can’t get full access to Gudmundrs uniform or Tozens either. There’s a few more beyond that as well.
You know everyone? I know this isnt the character we expected, and you may not have gotten a character for your faction, but the good thing is that Holden is a mix of all faction, appearance wise, language wise and combat style wise. I was reluctant at first but this actually sounds great.
Tbh I think they could move Gryphon (or Griffith if you’re my friend) to the outlayer/pirate faction, doubt they ever would but it seems like a good move
13:30 You know very well that would just spawn Groups of Splintercells and Cults among the Knights, worshipping the ever smoldering Mountain of holy Lava 🌋🔥
I don't know why they didn't make Gryphon a Viking. His default at least looks much more like a Viking than a Knight. Plus obviously it would mean we have 8 Knights, Vikings and Samurai instead of 9 Knights and 7 Vikings
Genghis Kahn Gryphon is best Gryphon.

The fact the he speaks different languages already make him such a cool character.
His parry, throw, and combo finishers have unique voicelines based on the enemies faction
