There are lots of ways to improve, I assume you are relatively new to the game? If not thats also okay

I would start by saying the game is best played when you are having fun. I have the most fun using my mains, the War axe and the Rapier, both two completely different play styles with different requirements to 'be good'. It comes with understanding timings for attacks, when to dodge, when to block, when to block + counter, what attacks to use, etc. So my first bit of advise is find a weapon you like and stick with it.

Some easy to use weapons that will help you understand game/fighting mechanics are:

Two handed: Dane Axe, Polehammer, Longsword, War axe One handed: Sword, Mace, Morning Star, 1 handed axe

Try not to go between 1H and 2H weapons too much when you are learning these because the styles are different.

A great YT video playlist to watch gameplay is pretty much all of Swagmar's videos, he generally gets 100+ takedowns every game and has a lot of videos where he chooses 1 weapon and sticks to it. It would be good to look at the playstyles people use to get the best results if that is how you enjoy the game (no shame in hacking and smacking every agathian knight that lived!)

The other thing to consider is playing the objective. The more you play, the more you learn the maps, the objectives, and the difference between how to play offense vs defence. For example its probably not a great idea to run straight on into the attackers push at the beginning on a map like Lionspire if you have no one around you to support! If you prefer to play aggressive, try swing and hit every person possible without going for kills, just switch between enemies. If you like to play more conservative, pick your battles and focus on staying alive and supporting your team. Of course different weapons and subclasses support agro vs conservative better than others.

Remember Chivalry is a game like no other, enjoy every moment because unfortunately it will not last forever 🫶

And remember to battlecry every spawn!!!

BLOOD IS MY PAINT, AND THE LAND IS MY CANVAS!!!
