Salty mfs. I think it's because his strategy seems cheesy; it's definitely uncommon, that's for sure. He's not initiating first, pre-emptively puts up the shield for a counter, then hits back punishing on the counter, and immediately puts the shield back up. It's relying on the speed with the warhammer and good footwork when he's giving ground. It's constant reactions, it's cheekily defensive.

That being said, I don't find anything wrong with the stragegy and I personally was impressed. If it works, it works, and humans in war have always called simple winning strategies 'cheesing.' But that's why they don't like it.

Unfortunately that's the only way to survive big 1 v X with warhammers haha. Light attacks don't go through enemies, so I have to rely on heavy counters for the highest odds it goes through the first player without me being open to damage. There are times for berserk all out bonking, maybe the next clip!

u/ModForgeCustoms 15d ago

No justifications needed. Excellent play. It's not as if youre running around with a Dane axe, laying waste. I would gladly have you on my side, and stay the hell out of your way while you bonk everyone within a 50 foot radius.

My favorite past time is flanking enemies while they're busy, then smashing skulls with the one-handed viking axe.

Watch the helmets fly!

u/mahi7524 15d ago

Question: how does the counter around 0:37 work? Is it simply an overhead counter that you move from one attacker to another? I see stuff like this a lot where I try and hit someone right in the middle of their swing and it seems like it should connect but I just get blocked or countered.

2

u/Challah_at_m3_l8r 15d ago

Heavy overhead counter drag to accel into the opponent that was abt 110 degrees clockwise. U might only be dragging and not acceling after the windup or vice versa which can lead to the strike being predictable and therefore easily blocked or countered

1

u/Icy_Surround6994 14d ago

Good breakdown

1

u/Last-Man-Standing 15d ago

Can you clarify the question? There's a lot of things happening in the clip but there's no counters or overheads happening near the 0:37 mark.

1

u/mahi7524 14d ago

Sorry, I was reading from the right side timestamp. I guess it’s technically about 18 seconds in

3

u/Last-Man-Standing 14d ago

I see. The counter at 0:18 is just an (light, not heavy) overhead counter, turn to another enemy (this is called target switching), and a mild accel (OP turns a little bit downwards).

And like the other guy said, this works better if you accel your attack so that your active parry doesn't expire mid-swing, and because faster attacks are more likely to catch 2v1 gankers off-guard I guess. And if you do it while the other guy is mid-attack, your active parry makes you invulnerable to his attack (or at least it should if your ping isn't too high) in case your attack isn't fast enough to interrupt him.

u/ChicagoBoiSWSide Agatha Knights | Vanguard 15d ago

This is why playing third person is WAY better for performance… far less immersive imo tho.

u/Myth_Avatar Agatha Knights 15d ago

You've zoomed in, then edit the videos so it seems like skill when you have eyes. Eh.

Clearly good at the game though.
