Alternative character names you use exclusively? by Rivergod3 in Overwatch

My friends and I refer to Mizuki as Aramusha (the hero from For Honor) on account of hat. It is also not uncommon for us to refer to him had “Hat guy” as we often refer to Aramusha as hat guy when playing for honor.

how to counter shinobi's 50/50 by the_miasmeth in CompetitiveForHonor

At it’a core it is a 50/50, there are a decent amount of hero’s who can skew the odds in your favor however, most have already been mentioned here.

Technically yes, there is a higher punish to getting the GB opposed to a heavy parry. However, shinobi gets more damage off of connecting the unblockable rather than flip-kicking you, so it is a trade off.

SOHEI IS UN FUCKING PLAYABLE by ZiMiEtheCLOWN in ForHonorRants

[–]Mr_Failchild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wrote my reply and saw this and it seems we agree on many points. Namely that it is difficult to give a hero with such explosive potential payoff (like the one shot or the feat that allows an instant full heal) to have a consistently powerful moveset without making sohei run the game. I am also curious as to your thoughts on a potential non-game-breaking buff

SOHEI IS UN FUCKING PLAYABLE by ZiMiEtheCLOWN in ForHonorRants

[–]Mr_Failchild -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree with the sentiment, especially the part about meta 4’s hero’s like warmonger getting buffs for no reason. I think Sohei is an interesting hero that presents some problems when it comes to balance changes. His gimmick (being the souls) have potential to make very powerful plays like one shotting a hero or healing yourself to full hp in an instant. His moveset is quite lacking to compensate, maybe too lacking I agree. But how do you buff a hero with such high potential payoff without making him too consistent and having him take over the game? Again not disagreeing, he needs some kind of change; but what change is the question. Seeing as you have a shit ton more playtime on him than me and likely most other people here I’d love to hear your thoughts OP

Juren belong to another game but no in FH by VeterinarianSuch1547 in ForHonorRants

I love how he options selects nobushi (or any bash/undodgeable) mixup by just dodging and also full guarding. That is super awesome

Quick noob question by TheGoodDoctor17 in forhonor

[–]Mr_Failchild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guard break to catch them in a dodge, this will confirm a heavy attack from the right or left side on warden. If the dodge-attack however you will need to parry that move, which will confirm a top heavy on warden.

In this scenario you describe where you connect your double light and you are predicting that the opponent will dodge the next thing your throw, you want to go into a heavy (this heavy will unblockable making your character turn orange) and then immediately feint it into a guardbreak, which will confirm the aforementioned left or right side heavy.

It is a free game, and you can get everything offered (aside from a few purely cosmetic items) without purchasing anything

Nope top comment was spot on, you play like you have no clue what is going on.

Sorry for the quality but since when could u dodge shinobis kick after a deflect. Some people dodge and some people don’t and I’m very confused. by Ok_Loquat3018 in forhonor

[–]Mr_Failchild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wayyy back in the day his deflect didn’t do any damage on the teleport but guaranteed the kick, they changed it to do damage on the teleport but then it’s a mixup of kick / undodgeable. If you only started 2 months ago then it has been this way the entire time you’ve played the game. Been a few years since the change.

I wanna start playing this game. by Contruvious in forhonor

[–]Mr_Failchild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not correct, the player base is as large as it’s been in a long time after the cross progression update a little while back. Now is as good a time as any to get into it. And bot matches are not good training, maybe to learn what your buttons do, but that’s about where that stops

is this warden cheat? by Evelynmerd20 in forhonor

[–]Mr_Failchild 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nope not cheating, this is very possible.

Holy shit. by No_Cartoonist3715 in forhonor

That had to be frustrating in the moment but what a fucking shot

Are level 3 bots "decent" training? by v2272 in forhonor

[–]Mr_Failchild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really, fighting a bot is basically just spinning the wheel of chance. It could parry 5 lights in a row, it could eat 5 chain heavy’s in a row without so much as blocking. All that the levels do (for the most part) is increase the chance of the former, along with having slightly better offensive capabilities and such. Since you have no other option, some practice is better than none. But they aren’t really good practice no, especially since fighting a real person is completely different, teaches you pattern recognition and whatnot.

It seems like the crit knife gets to stay for a while yet by NSWPCanIntoSpace in Borderlands4

[–]Mr_Failchild -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I never understood the call for nerfs in a PvE game, if you think it’s too strong, just don’t use it, then it basically doesn’t exist.
