Hey everyone! The feedback on this video has been amazing. ⌛The group fight tips video is in the works! It will be a lot more complex.⌛ I will be picking random comments to show in the video. If you're funny, now is your time to shine. I look forward to seeing you all there!
I just changed from PS5 to Xbox series x and since there is no cross progression I got into bot/new comers lobbies. I was a god but now I feel like trash. I now get bot lobbies or god lobbies and I'm still just a mid skilled player 😭😭😭😭
What I actually meant to say is that my skill level feels like it went down. I got good bc I got my ass destroyed and I learned from it. But know people don't know what they r doing so they become unpredictable and they fight differently than a skilled player
Not only is this amazing for new players , but it also discourages scumbag behavior like light spamming or dodge attack spamming , making newer players actually play the game and get a decent skill level , as a rep 120 player that has been playing for almost 2 years I can say this is the PERFECT new player for honor guide
Obviously...: 1. Fully master your main character 2. Be able to read the enemy like a damn open book 3. Be able to be unpredictable and efficient 4. Be persistent and don't quit because of frequent mistakes
@@stephencastrosc1 that comes with playing and getting experience with fighting the different characters and learning the time it takes for their specific attacks. Best advice is hop in duels or brawls and just pick a character to main, get good with them and learn how the others fight
One big thing you forgot: stamina management. In 6:46 you have just enough stamina left to do your chain bash. But you don't have enough left to feint into a guard break. If the LB were smart, he would've dodge bashed you and put you oos, knowing that there's nothing you can do about it, after that he would have a 50/50 with his unblockable that would most likely kill you.
Quick tip 90% of the time openers (first swing into mix up) will be a light so knowing that just be quick on reaction an get that light parry. If they have a bash then you should be ready to dodge or expect light opener. Other than that you just gotta put time in an get brutally destroyed until you figure it out we’ve all been there it sucks lol also that you that Kensi conditioned into dodging after heavy
This was super helpful! I've watched a ton of guides but this one was by far the most efficient and easiest to understand. Having multiple examples for things like reads and effective feints was really cool! Thanks a ton
i always played for honor extremely casually and would pick it up and put it back down many times since its release but recently I took it up again and decided to be a little more serious and try to git gud, simple yet clear videos like this really help me out as ive been grinding trying to adjust to all the new characters, reworks, and feints and mixups/combos, hell even the terminology. Thanks alot man.
Because all their lights get parried. All their "ctrl + c, ctrl + v Leigon Kicks" get dodged. All their moves get interrupted. And worst of all, they have the reading skills of a toddler and the self-control/restraint of one. So it makes sense that they'd try to turtle up, even though that meta died years ago.
This is indeed helpful for the newer and older players. And as a seasoned veteran with 1.5k under my belt even I learned something new. Thank you, Awesome Video.
This was actually amazing. Pretty basic, but still good tips that everyone should know, and the script was excellent, didn't feel dragged or rushed imho. Kinda made me want to record something similar
This is a lot of good advice, however, I would like to note that there may have been better choices for demonstrating the 'good 'defense' aspect of this video other than Conq. Again, this is not to diminish the overall solid advice. I would suggest using a character that doesn't have as many options as Conq does throughout his chain or for his openers.He is very safe to play offensively with due to his innate properties and how much damage he can get off with a fast, simply animated bash that also has a very fast recovery. As well as easy-access unblockables that force the opponent into moving without much risk to the Conq. Personally, I think Warden, LB, Kensei or WL would have been a bit more effective in communicating those points due to their simpler, less protective kit, forcing the player (especially in a duel setting) to get creative with how they play and initiate/continue offense. These characters would also open up the floor to talk directly about how punishes work and what different kinds there are (wallsplat, knockdown, OOS, OOS knockdown, etc.). It's good that you went into how reads work, maybe if you make another one of these tips videos for the reads section, you could talk about how even certain characters have specific patterns. Like how a lot of LBs with throw a top light as an opener or bash. Or Cents usually only doing a jump, kick, or getting close and throwing a light. Overall, good video, by no means perfect, but it is definitely the start of something good. I'm looking forward to seeing more. :)
Very well said and no harm done. There’s definitely things I left out on purpose for the next video because it does get pretty complex if you’re new but, there’s also things I didn’t think about until you said something so I am thankful. I hope to see you in the next one!
If like to say that it’s good to notice what way they throw after an attack. If they ex. Throw top attack then right or left attack over and over you can pretty much rule out that they going to do top attack twice. This is especially useful against conq, aramusha and medjay who all have a infinite chain attack
I only have 1 issue with this, and it was your first point. The game is becoming more about reading than reacting. If you play based on reaction, you’re going to end up eating a lot of attacks. All of the most recent buffs and new heros also make it much harder to play reaction based. You gotta find the sweet spot in the middle where you react when needed and read when needed. Everything else is great, good advice for new or returning players. Well done 😄
Your voice is like a kiai, a sweet kiai that slowly drains my stamina while I'm in a comfy bed I'm happy to see that there is more and more content creation about For Honor, keep it up the video was good and I will definetly watch out for the next one
Hey! This popped up in my recommended. Even though im also a veteran player (i have around 1200hrs+) this guide is really well made. Super good information on how to read, how to counter spam and general good tips! Just wanted to add that not every hero is designed to perform exceptionally well in every game mode. Picking your hero is also very important and team composition is really important too, especially in dominion and breach modes. You can't have a team full of duelists and expect to win against 2 shugokis and 2 raiders. Obviously you can, but what im trying to say is that there are heroes who specialize in ganking and have amazing ganking tools and there are heroes who are better in 1v1's and you should pick a hero that is more proper for the type of game mode you're playing. Heroes that are good for dominion and breach usually have big attack hitboxes, good feats, hyper armor and a lot of health. Heroes that are better for 1v1's usually have a lot of mixups, fast lights and bash mixups. Unless you're repping up a specific character, then by all means go ahead and grind those armor sets!
Secret tip for the PC players, look after your physical and mental well-being (console players can do this too ig...) Take a quick break to play a high reaction intensity game (osu, aim trainer’s, reflex games) Put some practice into learning animations and shit And then just react to more or less everything the opponent does (in duels) and win
Thanks a LOT, it’s been a good few months since I watched this and now I’ve got quite a few reps on my heroes but I just wanted to drop in this message to say I couldn’t have done it without you. Very rarely do I find videos that I can feel actually improved my gameplay (to be fair though, my gameplay was very bad it wasn’t hard to improve), but this one was different. Thank you
cool video bro, im not a new player but interesting to see how other people might play i am a reactionary player most of the time but i might start trying to read. one thing ive noticed people do when vsing a light spammer is as soon as the light spammer moves their guard go for a parry because it will most of the time be a light
I’m struggling to play with my friends because I feel like my skill level is horrific for their lobby’s like last game they all left after we lost and got off and I feel if I would have just been better they would have stayed on. I feel this is absolutely a video I needed
Tip number 3 is the biggest thing I try to drive home with every new player I help out. Sadly most of them don't want to listen and then they get mad and Uninstall :/
Sometimes intentionally throwing an unpredictable attack can catch them. I play kyoshin sometimes and I go into Kaze then go out of it into zone catches a lot of opponents because when have you seen a kyoshin bait his Kaze
I really wish there was content like this for individual heroes. Every video I find is just saying what the characters moves are followed by raw gameplay. An in-depth guide of fundamental rules and options in general situations for each hero would be really cool.
Coming from a rep 10 here, I'm gonna expand on the "learning heroes" tip. it's my experience that most players(at least in my current skill level) Meta-game to hell and back, meaning they use the internet to find a specific hero's most damaging punishes and best combos, which can be very annoying to deal with. You can counter this by doing the same thing, but learning said combos to counter them. Take Jormungander right now. There's Jorge's all over the place doing the exact same chain of hits bevause it's a pretty great combo, but because I know it, I'm ready to deal with it. You don't HAVE to meta-game to win games, but it definitely helps to understand your opponent's biggest strengths and how to react to them. You don't have to be a light-parry reaction god if you know what they're most likely to do before they even push a button
ok , its not bad to use a strong hero , especially if they like the kit , and , just as you said , it annoying seeing people use the same exact combo in the same exact character over and over again , but that's how for honor works , every hero has its unique playstyle , thats why every player playing jorm tend to bash a lot , cause it's his main tool , with this said , as you start getting more experience in the game , you will notice little variations on how anyone plays their hero , one might like to feint a heavy into gb while other might like to feint into a light , one player might like to dodge more and other will try to catch the parry... Overall the new player experience sucks but you will start getting better matches eventually , hone your skills , get a grip of how do YOU like to play and forget about meta heroes (unless they are super broken, like the zhanhu dodge change some weeks ago) , overall , try to have fun and dont worry to much about people abusing broken tactics
I haven’t played For Honor in years. I got it today on sale seeing more of my friends come back to it. I’ll be admittedly playing bots all day 😂😂 but I’ll be referencing this video while I do until I get better. Thanks for your information presented in a very good educational tone. As someone who does education in the flooring trades field I must say, you have a teachers voice. Thank you for this video, when I first picked up the game there where no videos like this.
If outside of 1v1 duel, here is a good tip. Have a friend who you rely on and he/she can rely on you. Communicate via mic. Play the objectives. Utilize all your perks
As late as i am, i just got the game yesterday, and i wanna get the foundations down. Can't wait to get into it. More importantly, thank you for the guide, and i would be down for some gaming if you still play or if anyone wants to play!
I HIGHLY recommend you play against level 2 and 3 AI in the training grounds as a beginner. The AI is quite accurate to players you'll be fighting. (If that's too difficult, practice light parries and parries in general)
I must say. a good tip would be: Coming back to this video from time to time. to improve slowly and watching the explanations to see what one did wrong. :)
Amazing video dude,just purchased the game and I'm into keep watching your videos,keep it up . Great tutorial ... thank you for sharing your knowledge. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪😘😘
I have at least a couple thousand hours in For Honor, and I found this slightly humorous. I already know all this and saw it because it was in my recommended, but I do believe it is all helpful.
1- Master your main’s move set and capabilities 2- make active reads on opponents (find patterns in their style) 3- don’t use the same move more than twice 4- get better at defense 5- feints are for baiting 6- dodging too much will kill you
Great video! I look forward to seeig more of your work. I am a perpetual beginner because I keep coming to this game every couple of months and have to re-learn basically everything. Guides like this help a lot 🙂
Love this feedback! Haha there is something about this game that I think brings us all back. Glad you enjoyed it, hopefully my other ones will be as helpful!😬
So, completely unrelated to what the video is about. Your voice is really easy to fall asleep to, like it’s smooth and calm..unlike most for honor players voices
Brilliant vid man! On the off chance you read this, I’ve improved a lot since giving this vid a few watches and I’d consider myself ‘ok’ for my overalll rep (14, I started playing about a month ago). My only struggles I encounter is where I try parry/deflect a majority of the time (even during lights combos when it’s better to block) and ‘wind-up(???)’ heavies (which I parry/dodge too early on) which I’ll get noted down after more time. Love your stuff man, all the best for you!❤
If y’all wanna know how to get good know ur heroes strengths and weaknesses and also ur opponents, what they can’t and can do so u can predict their next move instead of relying on reaction time parries majority of people who play the same hero play them the same and Stam management don’t get too greedy now, turtling is another thing you’ll have to do against some players as much as I hate it sometimes it’ll win you a game. it’s also ok to lose a round to get a better understanding of ur opponents play-style if they play unpredictable, just knowing what their character can do can put u in a better situation so if u miss the first parry or miss the dodge bash and you know there’s a follow up after you’ll kno bc of ur knowledge of the character
When I started I realized a few hours into the game they had different play styles so I decided to try to train against all of them to parry/dodge their attacks, thanks for the tips
what's really hard with low level gameplay is that when you're trying to mix up and feint your attacks, some opponent's will not even acknowledge it. you will legit feint the same shit 5 times in a row, and they'll parry you when you think "they'll expect it the 6th time" and don't feint. a classic for me is when i play warmonger into dodge attack spammers. i'll hit them with the same 2 hit pressure chain into undodgeable, and the one time i faint it, they are still dodge attacking. i guess that's why making reads is more important and has to precede mixups and feints.
As someone who genuinely Cant do reads or react to lights while having over 1000/2000 hours on xbox this is genuinely helpful and not many are but this makes sense
Ayo, this video is really good, i'm actually rep 150 player and it's still interesting. but it have one problem. Background is too empty. Put some music and it will be MUCH better
I just reached the 100th rep on my account with PS5 and I think there’s something really important to point out. Consoles reaction time is way lower than PCs. Basically when it comes to mouse vs joystick, there’s no real competition, mouse gives you an advantage. And it’s really frustrating because I always end up in servers of all PC players vs me with my PS5, that and also the rep level gap between me and my opponents (I usually play against rep 500th or higher, reaching even 1200th reps)
Lol just give it time. There’s so much to learn about this game and it’s always changing, which can be difficult at first but there’s definitely been some great moments. Hopefully my next guides will help ya out!
Only thing left out is that you need to light parry, once you get to a certain point people will just light parry all your openers, second attacks, etc. Crazy
Chrome by the way I love you're tips so much it's basic and it has lots things mentioned I think that practice will help me to become good at this because I can fully learn this from your tips and tricks because it's awesome to shine ourselves like golden just like you said it before in this video is practice or die like a bot I totally agree and appreciate your effort and your time thanks brother 😊😊❤
One tip,tho tbh applies to basically every game, when you feel burned-out, take a pause of a few days. The frustration you can get from this game is.. Quiet a lot, and sometimes the Matchmaking is rather unga bunga,is better to call it a day
A really great video. Lots of valuable information, useful for both new and old players. Your video was really well structured and straight to the point. Keep up with the good work!
Happy reads. We make a little happy read here and we can make a heavy attack but you don't have to do a heavy attack you can do a light or a shield bash. Whatever you want. Bob Ross of for honor
Gaming really used to be fun for me, now I’m just angry with a side of depression, even with practice the game still works so hard against me (at least that’s how it feel). Every bit of damage I take in a multiplayer game tho it’s virtual, it feels like a literal real life slap to the face and like I said I’m practicing just to have no progression to the point where my days now feel some what ruined and to be perfectly honest I’m having really REALLY violent thoughts and feel really destructive. I like the animations of this game and customization and stuff but it’s like what’s the point of playing just to feel like a damn doormat for everyone else online, these thoughts and voices of people laughing at my failures won’t leave and it makes me SICK and yet I still get on the game to try to improve and yet I STILL SUCK (Inside and out). Feels like a never ending cycle and all I really want is just to enjoy video games the way I used to (among other things that made me happy) but sadly it seems I’m just not allowed to progress. Sorry for the paragraph, these are just my daily thoughts 😕
I have +400h in For Honor and i know all of them bc i get destroyed on good Players BC that my way Go learn, but its allways good to have a refresher thx for your video ITS realy good and i wished i saw it earlyer 😅
SunTzu basicly preached all that already roundabout 2500 years ago. "If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle." Just to quote one of his. 😎👍
Always start with a controller because once you go M&K you can't go back I started with controller, dropped the game for a few years, got back on with M&K, and now I can't use a controller. Maybe I need to practice more on the controller(used it for two days and it sucks) but yeah, it is very hard to go back.
Hey everyone! The feedback on this video has been amazing. ⌛The group fight tips video is in the works! It will be a lot more complex.⌛
I will be picking random comments to show in the video. If you're funny, now is your time to shine.
I look forward to seeing you all there!
Great video
? Did the group fight video come out?
Bro just gotta say your voice sounds amazing
Take me under wing and teach me personally please
Number one strategy of how to be a god: Make a new account, smurf, and win every match and feel like a God.
The poor new comers
I just changed from PS5 to Xbox series x and since there is no cross progression I got into bot/new comers lobbies. I was a god but now I feel like trash. I now get bot lobbies or god lobbies and I'm still just a mid skilled player 😭😭😭😭

@@zivapet6365 dude, YES! It’s so funny when the newbs destroy me better than decent players do because like you said they are so unpredictable lol
Pathetic
Not only is this amazing for new players , but it also discourages scumbag behavior like light spamming or dodge attack spamming , making newer players actually play the game and get a decent skill level , as a rep 120 player that has been playing for almost 2 years I can say this is the PERFECT new player for honor guide
Obviously...:
1. Fully master your main character
2. Be able to read the enemy like a damn open book
3. Be able to be unpredictable and efficient
4. Be persistent and don't quit because of frequent mistakes
How about partying and blocking? I’m having trouble with those
@@stephencastrosc1 that comes with playing and getting experience with fighting the different characters and learning the time it takes for their specific attacks. Best advice is hop in duels or brawls and just pick a character to main, get good with them and learn how the others fight
@@PepsiSquad5133 I main kensei, my feints and combos are good i land them for the most part but when im defending I suck
@@stephencastrosc1if you know you can attack good I recommend getting in a fight ONLY to defend and counter attack. Try not to initiate the fight
@@x7NoaH7xD thanks bro I’ll take that advice and try it out with some friends! Do you still play?
One big thing you forgot: stamina management.
In 6:46 you have just enough stamina left to do your chain bash. But you don't have enough left to feint into a guard break.

Yes^ Good looking out👌🏼
This is why I love the comments
Stopped playing years ago and found myself struggling to get back on top. This is exactly the video I needed. Well done.
Imo this is the absolute most beginner friendly guide to For Honor that I've seen in my 5 years of playing. Great video m8
Great comment. Really appreciate it, thank you!
Quick tip 90% of the time openers (first swing into mix up) will be a light so knowing that just be quick on reaction an get that light parry. If they have a bash then you should be ready to dodge or expect light opener. Other than that you just gotta put time in an get brutally destroyed until you figure it out we’ve all been there it sucks lol also that you that Kensi conditioned into dodging after heavy
"Light opener" LMAO I'm using this term along with "light parry spam"
As a kensei main I’m guilty of this
You can’t reaction parry lights on old gen unfortunately….a tip/topic I wish people would discuss more. Old gen almost feels like a different game.
This was super helpful! I've watched a ton of guides but this one was by far the most efficient and easiest to understand. Having multiple examples for things like reads and effective feints was really cool! Thanks a ton
You're very welcome! I appreciate the feedback
Nice 👍
i always played for honor extremely casually and would pick it up and put it back down many times since its release but recently I took it up again and decided to be a little more serious and try to git gud, simple yet clear videos like this really help me out as ive been grinding trying to adjust to all the new characters, reworks, and feints and mixups/combos, hell even the terminology. Thanks alot man.
These are actually really good tips for new players. This’ll help get into the groove of things a bit quicker
You know, I don't wanna be the best, I just wanna be good, so thanks a lot for showing me down the right path towards that. God bless ya, buddy.
I need more of this, because current trend in For Honor is people in a fight always stay silent and afraid to attack lately.
Because all their lights get parried. All their "ctrl + c, ctrl + v Leigon Kicks" get dodged. All their moves get interrupted.
And worst of all, they have the reading skills of a toddler and the self-control/restraint of one.
So it makes sense that they'd try to turtle up, even though that meta died years ago.
With over 500 hours in this and taking a 2 year break this was great refresher and best video I’ve seen for this game. Thank you 🙏
This was the most educational For Honor ASMR I've ever listened to
This is indeed helpful for the newer and older players.
And as a seasoned veteran with 1.5k under my belt even I learned something new.
Thank you, Awesome Video.
Why are you whispering tho
It probably night
ASMR
Tip #22: Kensei’s will ALWAYS dodge heavy into light spam no matter what the situation. 🧠
I do not🥹
Unless you fight one that has a brain, which isnt the majority of kenseis i know
This was actually amazing. Pretty basic, but still good tips that everyone should know, and the script was excellent, didn't feel dragged or rushed imho. Kinda made me want to record something similar
Great feedback, thank you! Hopefully the following videos will be able to compete with this one.
Good bro 😊
The active demonstrations of feints and reads is very helpful
This is a lot of good advice, however, I would like to note that there may have been better choices for demonstrating the 'good 'defense' aspect of this video other than Conq. Again, this is not to diminish the overall solid advice. I would suggest using a character that doesn't have as many options as Conq does throughout his chain or for his openers.He is very safe to play offensively with due to his innate properties and how much damage he can get off with a fast, simply animated bash that also has a very fast recovery. As well as easy-access unblockables that force the opponent into moving without much risk to the Conq.
Personally, I think Warden, LB, Kensei or WL would have been a bit more effective in communicating those points due to their simpler, less protective kit, forcing the player (especially in a duel setting) to get creative with how they play and initiate/continue offense. These characters would also open up the floor to talk directly about how punishes work and what different kinds there are (wallsplat, knockdown, OOS, OOS knockdown, etc.).

True but if you’re the type of gamer that adapts as they play then it’s easier to work with it
The game is very slowly becoming more read based which is great but still at the highest levels many characters are fully reactable
Do work in class❌ watch how to get good at for honor✅
Your voice is like a kiai, a sweet kiai that slowly drains my stamina while I'm in a comfy bed
I'm happy to see that there is more and more content creation about For Honor, keep it up the video was good and I will definetly watch out for the next one

Heroes that are better for 1v1's usually have a lot of mixups, fast lights and bash mixups.
Unless you're repping up a specific character, then by all means go ahead and grind those armor sets!

Secret tip for the PC players, look after your physical and mental well-being (console players can do this too ig...)
Take a quick break to play a high reaction intensity game (osu, aim trainer’s, reflex games)
Put some practice into learning animations and shit
And then just react to more or less everything the opponent does (in duels) and win
Remember to dodge towards your right during enemy Xiaolin sweep. The sweep can and will catch you if you dodge to your left.
I did not know dis
You can dodge either way, the amount of I-frames does not change.
That’s some bullshit, I’ve been playing for years now and no matter where I dodge I can still gaurdbreak after a missed sweep.
Thanks a LOT, it’s been a good few months since I watched this and now I’ve got quite a few reps on my heroes but I just wanted to drop in this message to say I couldn’t have done it without you. Very rarely do I find videos that I can feel actually improved my gameplay (to be fair though, my gameplay was very bad it wasn’t hard to improve), but this one was different. Thank you
I’ve been playing for a while but I feel like I need to learn more strategies. I usually spend hours in training
you still play ?
also got ~1600 hours and can confirm these are some good tips. nice video :D
Haha thank you!
cool video bro, im not a new player but interesting to see how other people might play i am a reactionary player most of the time but i might start trying to read. one thing ive noticed people do when vsing a light spammer is as soon as the light spammer moves their guard go for a parry because it will most of the time be a light

Tip number 3 is the biggest thing I try to drive home with every new player I help out. Sadly most of them don't want to listen and then they get mad and Uninstall :/
We need a guide for more experienced players on how to anti gang.
It’s in the works right now! There’s a lot of stuff I want to cover!
I’m 2:22 minutes into the video and already liked and subbed. Dude is hilarious 😂………oh and yes to a group video please.
Don’t you worry, it’s coming. Thank you for the feedback👌🏼
Why do you sound like you're in my bed and couldn't fall asleep so you started a lecture about for honor?
Sometimes intentionally throwing an unpredictable attack can catch them. I play kyoshin sometimes and I go into Kaze then go out of it into zone catches a lot of opponents because when have you seen a kyoshin bait his Kaze
I'm gonna have to watch a few more of your vids but I like how you actually explain things and break them down
Shame I can’t pause the duels to analyse his previous attacks and plan my move 😢
Such a relaxing voice. And good advice.
You should say that to my kids. They would think the opposite lol
I really wish there was content like this for individual heroes. Every video I find is just saying what the characters moves are followed by raw gameplay. An in-depth guide of fundamental rules and options in general situations for each hero would be really cool.
Coming from a rep 10 here, I'm gonna expand on the "learning heroes" tip. it's my experience that most players(at least in my current skill level) Meta-game to hell and back, meaning they use the internet to find a specific hero's most damaging punishes and best combos, which can be very annoying to deal with. You can counter this by doing the same thing, but learning said combos to counter them. Take Jormungander right now. There's Jorge's all over the place doing the exact same chain of hits bevause it's a pretty great combo, but because I know it, I'm ready to deal with it. You don't HAVE to meta-game to win games, but it definitely helps to understand your opponent's biggest strengths and how to react to them. You don't have to be a light-parry reaction god if you know what they're most likely to do before they even push a button
ok , its not bad to use a strong hero , especially if they like the kit , and , just as you said , it annoying seeing people use the same exact combo in the same exact character over and over again , but that's how for honor works , every hero has its unique playstyle , thats why every player playing jorm tend to bash a lot , cause it's his main tool , with this said , as you start getting more experience in the game , you will notice little variations on how anyone plays their hero , one might like to feint a heavy into gb while other might like to feint into a light , one player might like to dodge more and other will try to catch the parry...
Overall the new player experience sucks but you will start getting better matches eventually , hone your skills , get a grip of how do YOU like to play and forget about meta heroes (unless they are super broken, like the zhanhu dodge change some weeks ago) , overall , try to have fun and dont worry to much about people abusing broken tactics
What an astounding video! I have over 350 reps and I STILL learned something new. Thanks for the video, pal
Not a problem man! Glad you left with more than you came with👌🏼
@@Chr0meGaming much love, bro ❤️
@@chasebrumfiel1042 thanks brotha, needed that!
Great video man, this will be amazing for new players and a good review for old players. 👍 Good luck to everyone 🍀
That’s exactly what we like to hear! I appreciate the feedback👌🏼
I haven’t even played the game yet but for sure will now. Great video, dude!
The format of the video is *chefs kiss*
Little tip to help focus on learning what certain characters can do then try to read your opponents based on what those characters are limited to.
I haven’t played For Honor in years. I got it today on sale seeing more of my friends come back to it. I’ll be admittedly playing bots all day 😂😂 but I’ll be referencing this video while I do until I get better. Thanks for your information presented in a very good educational tone. As someone who does education in the flooring trades field I must say, you have a teachers voice. Thank you for this video, when I first picked up the game there where no videos like this.
If outside of 1v1 duel, here is a good tip. Have a friend who you rely on and he/she can rely on you. Communicate via mic. Play the objectives. Utilize all your perks
Man that's the first time to watch your content, you're hilarious and worth the subscribe 😂😂😂
Appreciate it, thank you👌
Your voice gives me comfort
As late as i am, i just got the game yesterday, and i wanna get the foundations down. Can't wait to get into it. More importantly, thank you for the guide, and i would be down for some gaming if you still play or if anyone wants to play!
I HIGHLY recommend you play against level 2 and 3 AI in the training grounds as a beginner. The AI is quite accurate to players you'll be fighting. (If that's too difficult, practice light parries and parries in general)
I must say. a good tip would be: Coming back to this video from time to time. to improve slowly and watching the explanations to see what one did wrong. :)
Amazing video dude,just purchased the game and I'm into keep watching your videos,keep it up . Great tutorial ... thank you for sharing your knowledge.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪😘😘
Even with 1000 hours on this game, I still found this video helpful
Just redownloaded the game after at least 2 years. After 10 matches I finally faced a character I recognized. Time to brush up
I have at least a couple thousand hours in For Honor, and I found this slightly humorous. I already know all this and saw it because it was in my recommended, but I do believe it is all helpful.
Felt like a asmr lol loved it! Thanks!
1- Master your main’s move set and capabilities
2- make active reads on opponents (find patterns in their style)
3- don’t use the same move more than twice
4- get better at defense
5- feints are for baiting
6- dodging too much will kill you
Just some of the things I’ve learned since I started 3 weeks ago lol
Great video! I look forward to seeig more of your work. I am a perpetual beginner because I keep coming to this game every couple of months and have to re-learn basically everything. Guides like this help a lot 🙂
Love this feedback! Haha there is something about this game that I think brings us all back. Glad you enjoyed it, hopefully my other ones will be as helpful!😬
So, completely unrelated to what the video is about. Your voice is really easy to fall asleep to, like it’s smooth and calm..unlike most for honor players voices
Wow, that’s actually really nice. I don’t feel worthy enough but thank you!
My biggest fear in life is a for honor RUclipsr destroying me and then analyzing my every mistake on RUclips.
Brilliant vid man! On the off chance you read this, I’ve improved a lot since giving this vid a few watches and I’d consider myself ‘ok’ for my overalll rep (14, I started playing about a month ago). My only struggles I encounter is where I try parry/deflect a majority of the time (even during lights combos when it’s better to block) and ‘wind-up(???)’ heavies (which I parry/dodge too early on) which I’ll get noted down after more time. Love your stuff man, all the best for you!❤
If y’all wanna know how to get good know ur heroes strengths and weaknesses and also ur opponents, what they can’t and can do so u can predict their next move instead of relying on reaction time parries majority of people who play the same hero play them the same and Stam management don’t get too greedy now, turtling is another thing you’ll have to do against some players as much as I hate it sometimes it’ll win you a game. it’s also ok to lose a round to get a better understanding of ur opponents play-style if they play unpredictable, just knowing what their character can do can put u in a better situation so if u miss the first parry or miss the dodge bash and you know there’s a follow up after you’ll kno bc of ur knowledge of the character
When I started I realized a few hours into the game they had different play styles so I decided to try to train against all of them to parry/dodge their attacks, thanks for the tips
I know it’s informational but the kensei dodging and you saying “ if you guessed dodge… your correct” is HILLARIOUS 😭😭😭
Lol glad you enjoyed that
you’re trash
I LIVE your tip 2.5 that’s exactly what I did, I just took it to another level and got rep eight with all heroes
what's really hard with low level gameplay is that when you're trying to mix up and feint your attacks, some opponent's will not even acknowledge it. you will legit feint the same shit 5 times in a row, and they'll parry you when you think "they'll expect it the 6th time" and don't feint.
a classic for me is when i play warmonger into dodge attack spammers. i'll hit them with the same 2 hit pressure chain into undodgeable, and the one time i faint it, they are still dodge attacking.
i guess that's why making reads is more important and has to precede mixups and feints.
Ngl bro this was a funny and informative video big W
thanks man i just started playing and this helped so much thank you and have a good one!
I just recently got the game to play with my brothers and know nothing about it. this video helped me grasp the fundamentals thanks man! 💯
I’m 6 months in
Lol it’s only day 2 for me
As someone who genuinely Cant do reads or react to lights while having over 1000/2000 hours on xbox this is genuinely helpful and not many are but this makes sense
I’m glad it helped!
You probably just play on a tv instead of a monitor / play with friends who are in another region or ur old gen
Ayo, this video is really good, i'm actually rep 150 player and it's still interesting. but it have one problem. Background is too empty. Put some music and it will be MUCH better
I’m with ya. It was a thought in the back of my head while making it but I got lazy..haha oops.
I just reached the 100th rep on my account with PS5 and I think there’s something really important to point out. Consoles reaction time is way lower than PCs. Basically when it comes to mouse vs joystick, there’s no real competition, mouse gives you an advantage. And it’s really frustrating because I always end up in servers of all PC players vs me with my PS5, that and also the rep level gap between me and my opponents (I usually play against rep 500th or higher, reaching even 1200th reps)
Commenting for algorithm, great vid!
Means a lot! Thank you!
Thanks for the tips. I'm just coming back to for honor after like 2 years and have been getting trashed.
Your voice being so soft is one of the main reasons why I kept watching Im not going to lie
Haha love it!
Just got into this game and am loving it so far! However, for the life of me I cannot fight if its not 1v1
Lol just give it time. There’s so much to learn about this game and it’s always changing, which can be difficult at first but there’s definitely been some great moments. Hopefully my next guides will help ya out!
Only thing left out is that you need to light parry, once you get to a certain point people will just light parry all your openers, second attacks, etc. Crazy
The reaction monsters lol
Chrome by the way I love you're tips so much it's basic and it has lots things mentioned I think that practice will help me to become good at this because I can fully learn this from your tips and tricks because it's awesome to shine ourselves like golden just like you said it before in this video is practice or die like a bot I totally agree and appreciate your effort and your time thanks brother 😊😊❤
One tip,tho tbh applies to basically every game, when you feel burned-out, take a pause of a few days. The frustration you can get from this game is.. Quiet a lot, and sometimes the Matchmaking is rather unga bunga,is better to call it a day
A really great video.
Lots of valuable information, useful for both new and old players.
Your video was really well structured and straight to the point.
Keep up with the good work!
Really awesome feedback! Thank you for the words of encouragement👌🏼
Lmfaoo bro just casually pulled out a obi wan quote while I’m on bf2 loading screen staring at him 😂😂
Great video man; had me cracking up and it makes me hate for honor a little bit less. You’ve earned my sub and like👍🏽
I feel like the battles happen so fast. Its essential to slow urself down. Which will allow you to learn all ur tips
I can't use half of this because I am a filthy old gen player, but cool vid dude
Lol thank you
bro ur voice is so soothing can u tell me a bed time story
Love your editing and humor style bro
Happy reads. We make a little happy read here and we can make a heavy attack but you don't have to do a heavy attack you can do a light or a shield bash. Whatever you want. Bob Ross of for honor
Gaming really used to be fun for me, now I’m just angry with a side of depression, even with practice the game still works so hard against me (at least that’s how it feel). Every bit of damage I take in a multiplayer game tho it’s virtual, it feels like a literal real life slap to the face and like I said I’m practicing just to have no progression to the point where my days now feel some what ruined and to be perfectly honest I’m having really REALLY violent thoughts and feel really destructive. I like the animations of this game and customization and stuff but it’s like what’s the point of playing just to feel like a damn doormat for everyone else online, these thoughts and voices of people laughing at my failures won’t leave and it makes me SICK and yet I still get on the game to try to improve and yet I STILL SUCK (Inside and out). Feels like a never ending cycle and all I really want is just to enjoy video games the way I used to (among other things that made me happy) but sadly it seems I’m just not allowed to progress. Sorry for the paragraph, these are just my daily thoughts 😕
I planed to have rep 8-10 on every hero before I start raining someone.(Rn on rep 22: warden rep 10 kensei rep 6, centurion rep 5, peacekeeper rep 1)
I have +400h in For Honor and i know all of them bc i get destroyed on good Players BC that my way Go learn, but its allways good to have a refresher thx for your video ITS realy good and i wished i saw it earlyer 😅
Another tip: fight with everyone in 4v4 at least 1 time one person at a time so you understand their play style
How have I never seen this channel? It’s awesome yo!
Really appreciate that one, thank you!
SunTzu basicly preached all that already roundabout 2500 years ago. "If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle." Just to quote one of his. 😎👍
Very well done explaining the conq lb fight!
Always start with a controller because once you go M&K you can't go back
I started with controller, dropped the game for a few years, got back on with M&K, and now I can't use a controller. Maybe I need to practice more on the controller(used it for two days and it sucks) but yeah, it is very hard to go back.
0:30 My bro is the raid boss.
You deserve a lot more subs this was great
I’m glad you enjoyed it thanks for the motivation👌🏼
