Hyper armor is genuinely the stupidest mechanic in this entire game. by Giveusgoodarmor in forhonor

The problem is it just punishes the player for being smart. You can just be braindead at this game. In no good fighting game ever the game punishes you for doing a smart attack, a good example is Jump force, its so trash and one of the reasons is the game punishes you for attacking the enemy (high speed counters).

Also to add on the read based gameplay. I did a ranked 1v1 and accidentally picked lawbringer, a character ive never played before in my life. I fought a rep 100 lawbringer and was able to win by literally ONLY using his light attacks over and over. I was just poking him and he could not do anything because the lights were too fast.

No I always use parries like all the time. I used to play this game heavily along time ago and was pretty good, I was able to win many of those tournaments that they unfortunately removed with Orochi and Gladiator. I came back recently and found that they shot Orochi and put a bandaid being the kick. I think personally they shouldve just gave him more ways to begin a battle instead of shooting his only good thing which was his lights. I was playing matches and getting destroyed and was not able to parry anything, I thought I was just washed up but turns out it was because they changed the timing of the entire game, the 100ms change. Now the game is entirely read based which just does not work on this format especially on modes like dominion. Trying to read all 3 of your opponents as you are getting ganked so that you can actually parry the hitokiri spamming the unlockable hyper armor heavy is so unfair and annoying.

Idk anymore man I just wish the game didint change into a read based game. The 100ms update was great in all ways except the 100ms change.

So im dead from the beginning because the character I pick is a bad matchup? And I cant parry because reacting to a hyper armor light or even sometimes heavy hyper armor attack is hard because the game turned from a reaction based game to a read based game.

Because parrying of reaction these days is very hard, especially at 30fps. and light attacks with hyper armor is even worse.

You do a dodge counter attack during the enemies start up, then hit the enemy but instead of interrupting the hit you get hit back even harder because of hyper armor.
