    "This list might not be applicable to everyone" - Something that tons of people need to understand in every competitive game. Too many games you see people calling characters "garbage/trash" because someone that plays at a level far, FAR above theirs says so. If you aren't playing the game at pro competition level then 99% of the time these tier lists don't apply to the players trying to imitate them.

      @@nohvux9434 That's utter bullshit. Rainbow is successful because people keep coming back. Because it's a good game, and the pro community is quite large. And it's microtransaction heavy. And an Ubisoft game.
      Basing game balances off what a small percentage of players says is idiotic, from an economic standpoint. If these pros want a gross, easy to play character nerfed, and that character gets nerfed, what happens to the casual people who played them because they're easy? Y'know, the majority of the reason the game is alive? The majority of the people who bought it? Oh, right, they're pissed because their fun character is terrible, or, at best, balanced, and may leave. They may detour people from playing it because of it being dictated by these pro players. It's not fun, as a casual, to let a bunch of people way better than you build the game. That turns it into a competitive game, which most casuals dislike.
      Oh, and, you just compared Rainbow to For Honor. Two totally different games. For Honor is dying and that is fact. The game is on it's last leg. People only come back for the new content and then they leave because it is, genuinely, unfun sometimes. Rainbow is, consistently, more popular.

      am surprise ubi stick with the game for so long and am happy they are, but it's not as popular as their other games, with that it gets less attention and less balancing. plus the characters in siege are simpler than for honors so balancing is a bit easier as well

      I kinda feel the opposite now. The people I've talked to recently seem to acknowledge and warm up to the idea that Warlord is very very good now. What Ubi did with Warlord is how balancing for this game SHOULD be done. Slowly buffing him little by little as to not break anything until he becomes formidable. However, I still would like a video on him, simply because I've been itching for more Warlord content lately. He's awesome, but it sucks that Ubi keeps nerfing his best feats.

      Hyena Screech nah, I think he was pretty bad considering you used to be able to avoid his mix-ups by simply back-dodging. You can still do this to some extent. Even then, he has no real pressure, so it’s easy to counter him with little to no reason for caring otherwise. Rocksteady can make him really good on 4v4 tho. As well as his quick top heavies to help in ganking and 40 damage side heavies to add to your buddies punishes. He’s just bad in duels, but not shabby in objective modes.

Kinda like old prebuff raider, even with him being super out of meta, you could still just draw out matches with dodge gb making you safer in a lot of ways and waiting to make plays off of stamina bullying the average player. Not fantastic in tourneys as you'll just be met with super safe play, but pub mm will give you tons of people that throw out unsafe stuff you cant just take for free damage.

    Aramusha is a fun character to use especially in response to spammers. His blockade is also perfect for defense in ganks, for me anyways. As far as feats, I run the heal on minion kills (forget the name, Rocksteady, Second Wind and the banner. Those work for me the best. I tend to play pretty aggressive with Ara only to put pressure on the enemy long enough for the team to arrive or take other zones. Same with Zhanhu.

    One of the greatest things of Aramusha, is the fame he got in console of a soft-feint light spammer
    I barely use the deadly feints, but most opponents dont know that
    So hard feint into heavy, to start the "mix-up" again is a great strategy
    I really don't like how most players abuse the deadly feints because "that's all he have", when blade blocade is one of the greatest defensive tools
    Also, dash top heavy hard feint recoveries are so short, that you can hard feint a dash top heavy and input a blade blockade so fast, it even looks like a soft feint

      He is very weak in 1v1s. Especially with no feats. He becomes a beast after Revenge mode because of his infinite chain and feats. On his own though? He's a bad duelist and will mostly rely on his soft feints, finisher mind games, and defensive moves like parrying and his full blockade. He struggles the most from neutral.

      @demonwolf570 4 года назад +1

      @Sore Cheeks No he isn't. He barely has any openers and his stamina pool doesn't allow more than 3 or 4 deadly feints. You can't rely on his full blockade all the time either because soon as people did that expecting a light, I would just get them with regular heavies from neutral. You can also still back step his deadly feints. It's not often an Aramusha will feint them into guardbreak unless you're consistently doing it every time. It's easy to counter Aramusha when you access how the player you're going up against plays him. I speak as an Aramusha main.

    • @demonwolf570

      Good feats, kind of good 1v1, amazing teamfight with zone, great ganks with headbutt and crashing charge which is also rather safe, fast all block (good for the same reason as ara, but definetely not as effective as his), his recoveries got a lot of improvements which also improved his punishes and is good in antiganking due to his crushing counter and headbutt target swap. But in general, considering how teamfights at mid are at times the entire game in comp play and him having one of the best teamfights makes him top tier.

    I'm really surprised by this meta shift, though I do welcome it.

It's much better than the locked in comps that used to be in tournaments before.

      There’s definitely stronger defensive heroes, but in 4v4 meta it isn’t as important, which a why when you look at the 1v1 meta it becomes Lb, Conq, Warden, Bp etc at the top
      Aramusha viability was just overlooked for a while and some top level players who were long time aramusha mains started finding viable play styles for him in dominion. Also it can be directly attributed to other heroes not be as viable, seeing that aramusha was significantly stronger in the past and placed as highly still.

    As an aramusha main running rocksteady is much better imo, being able to gank without the risk of being revenge knockdowned is incredibly useful along with being able to rip through the revenge with his high damage. He doesn’t have enough unblockables to really use the smoke bomb to it’s full potential and you don’t need it to clear minions since your pretty much invincible while clearing with the minion clearing feat.

He can clear any pikeman-wave pretty fast with his infinite light-combo and without loosing to much health or stamina (thanks to his tier 1 perk) and he doesnt need any active/high level perk for it, so this ability is very consistent. I am pretty much #1 with points in any breach match, simply because i clear pikemen all the time with no restrains. Really underrated!

    Aramusha has always had a legitimately good win rate in dominion, and I think rocksteady has a lot to do with it, the ability to nullify a massive amount of potential punishes, compounded with his parry punishes, GB invulnerability on heavies, and the nerfs to being able to just constantly backdodge/roll his offense have resulted in him being a strong pick. In straight 1v1s he'll still obviously lose to a lot of the cast under optimal circumstances, but this game isn't really designed for flat 1v1s either, and I think people basing a tier list of 1v1 capability was what kept him down for a lot of the time he was considered low tier.

    Also having half of your moveset locked behind Blade Blockade is not good at all, especially if one of these attacks COULD be a reliable opener.

    Only reason comp players considered Musha low tier is because a player with high amounts of skill can easily know that blocking up can stop his light infinite and they aren’t worried about how fast his attacks are because they can probably parry or dodge them easily. BUT for casual players like I he’s a pain in the ass. I had to stop playing assassin characters because of their limited time to block and waiting for the Musha to make a move was essentially the only way I could counter him, predict and then wait. I’m not even like a new player, been playing since the day the game came out though I think I’m done with how bad the Devs are at balancing.

    Im almost in sync with you freeze,i play on console and i came to the same conclusion with aramusha,he is overall a great fighter shit made me wanna learn him,he s playstyle isnt as simple as warlord(wich became my main after the rework)but hes a sneaky bastard the faints the blade blocade ohh man when i encounter him i have to pay duble attention....also i liked that you sheed some light on the campaign,the bosses,minion kill animation,apolyon,tonzen....also i have a question do you think there should like a boss battle mode skirmish were you can play the bosses in the campaign(im talking about all of them...dobany,the shougoki and kensei)?or maybe a god mode with effects lightning earth shatters you know shit like that?

    As shugoki main i always said there were two heros you do not trade with, highlander and aramusha. You will not win if they know what they doing.

    I think someone should make a video about to counter feints etc or at least the best way to deal with them. Some are impossible.

    I dont get why people refer to lawbringer as a mid clearer, his zone is avarage like shugokis or valks and his heavies have less hitbox than it would seem
    Kensei can do the same with a light atack and kenseis zone is 360 amd hits twice so you can get mpre minions in the last strike
    Meanwhile aramusha wont run put of stamina while clearing and is one of the few characters thst can kill enough ninioms to make the healing they give relevant for me its lensei and musha no lawbro for clearing just put him on a point

    while i know how powerful smoke bomb is, i think you undersold rocksteady a bit, as it does just straight up remove a lot of punishes in the game, and makes a lot of mixups no longer actually matter, i think its a much harder choice than most any other feat choice in the game.

      It doesn’t matter as much in the context of competitive when you have teammates to peel for you. And most the strong gankers atm don’t get hindered by rock steady

      @white Wolf what are you talking about the he only gets a lil stun off one of his blockade options and it's nothing garunted after. N he does not have superior lights...you just suck again him.
