You forgot to mention any heavy can also be soft-feinted into a Guardbreak instead of only from neutral heavies (as pre-rework PK). You can dodge during the startup of any of your heavies so you can dodge back, do any of the three dashing stabs, or be super fancy and go into a deflect if your enemy tries to interrupt you...giving some pretty decent heavy mixups.
Ok, as someone who used to play PK (take note of the used to part) I can say that she 100% needs a new rework. Her non-bleed Damage is absolutely terrible, she is uninteresting to play, and every Assassin does her job better. Not accounting for the bleed follow up she has the lowest damaging heavies in the game and they aren’t even fast. You can’t even get one from a guardbreak (which makes it really hard to get execution). Beyond that if the opponent can block your lights you can do next to nothing if you want to play agressive, as they just block all of your lights. I play on Xbox (which means I’m capped at 30 fps) and almost everybody blocks my light attacks. If at 30 FPS everybody blocks peacekeeper than I would not be surprised if she is even worse on PC where people have better frame rates. And to continue she just isn’t interesting. She just does what other characters do, but worse. You want fast attack and damage? Play berserker ir Orochi. You want bleed and Anti-Turtle power? Play Shaman. You want well rounded mix-ups? Play Gladiator. You want safety when you try to attack? Play shinobi (backflip OP). Shaman is literally a better Peacekeeper. They had fast lights, but shaman gets a double hit, shaman has higher damage heavies (and they’re faster too), Shaman can choose the direction of her bleed, they have the same soft feints, shaman gets a bash, shaman gets, useful mix-ups. When I heard about the “rework” for Peacekeeper and the details of it all I could think was that the bleed stacking was a consolation prize for losing all of that damage. And the bleed stacking isn’t enough to make her good when she was needed like that. As a side note: When I said she wasn’t interesting to play it was for two reason. 1) She did what other assassins did but worse. 2) She has nothing unique. Every character has something that defines their play style or makes them noticeable among the rest. Peacekeeper has nothing that does that. She is basically every assassin, if they were stripped down to the basics.
She was retardedly overpowered prior to the rework. The reason why people just "block your attacks" is because they're so fast it's extremely difficult to actually guess when to parry, because your heavy feints into light isn't easy at all to react to. Which leaves people being forced to turtle and block. Play Raider against a PK tell me how "absolutely terrible" she is when 99% of your attacks, feints, and unblockables are either cancelled or guardbroken because of PK's pure speed.
@Brandon. Lol you shittin me? She is the worst assassin in the game. But you, oh no, some how you have problems with her but not, i don't know? Berserker? Shaman? Or glad?
Damn welp all i can say is that im a rep 51 pk right now and all he said is totally true i allways say bout shaman the same thing that you said and they agree but i just wanna say that im a execution lover i will almost never kill you if i dont execute (unless im salty :P) and is just absolutely impossible to do executions on 4v4s gamemodes... and good luck trying to get an execution in 1v1 with you're slow ass heavys haha
She's basically like the Old Warden right now. Except now Warden has more sufficient executions to counter you, and to top PKs mediocre rework: orochi is now the new PK. (Has received her old light spam speed and heavy/light damage, If I'm correct.) rep 30 PK here since Day 1 of For Honor. I play other heroes/classes too but pk is the worst assassin currently when it comes to 4v4s. (And if I'm to be very honest: she's bad in all modes now due to her heavy damage nerf, you just have to stick with the most cheesiest and lame tactic: bleed them and run like a pussy) Not to mention, barely getting any proper executions.
I still play PK and although harder to use, use her right and she’s just as godly, and the bleed can be applied very fast and in quick succession to do massive damage in short time. But definitely much harder to use.
You forgot to mention PK's back dodge range before they changed it for everyone. Not only could she effectively turtle up, but to dodges and she got to choose when someone gets to fight.
Hey, hey, hey, Bricky... You should play Highlander... If you use a technicality for Aramusha, you can use a technicality for Highlander, do it, he's really fun when learned right.
If my expectations are correct, Lawbringer will get reworked in season 8 with Marching Fire. I don't know how long it takes to make these, but if you make his before a rework, I would love to see you make one after as well, along with Warden. I've loved him since the game came out, now with 41 reps on him, and I'm curious to see what your guide of him looks like. Also cent, he's alright. Maybe him first? DEUS VULT!
PeaceKeeper for life ^^ You can go for a grab in mid heavy attack, what I like to do is = Light, light Heavy into a grab ( Don't have to cancel heavy any more) =D
Are you planning on continuing this series past just knight heroes? Id like to see more and Im pretty sure other people do too. Dont end this like the casefiles please :(
That's not what option select means....option select if is you match the gaurd of your opponent when zoning you will either A: party them if they commit to the attack or B: hit them with the zone of they feint....conqs zone works in the same way
I feel like if you gibe her a disable that can chain into a heavy and/or light you would have a lot of her problems fixed. She is lacking diversity in her kit, which is a huge up hill battle if you are an assassin. I was thinking they can mix in her dodge attack since thats her best opener... And only... Seriously she needs more to her kit thats it. When she came out she was op because her attack values were stupid and her bleed. But they balanced that so now they just have a stale assassin with nothing to hold over other assassins. Tbh I think the assassins class in general need a look at but PK mostly
Hey B R I CC, I see you're finishing up all these series, SYWTM, Volcano Guide, Fast Frames, and Overwatch. I'm happy for you, but what are your plans for after, I mean i won't complain an´bout more long content ala Fireside Bricky, but you cant meme the shit out of them, so do you have smth. planned?
I see most pk mains are missing out on a few move sets that can give you an unexpected advantage in this rework... either that or they won't tell ya because it's a secret 😂 I know I won't tell but I haven't seen it leaked yet :' )
DuhWorkGiver haha maybe one day soon. I'm planning to make a PK tip and advance guide video. For now I have a montage of My customed PK outfit put into action. Come check it out sometime on my channel!
Did they not change PK from the discount shaman to what she is now? It was changed cause the light soft front was the same timing as her heavy so you’d get a light parry on PK without even trying. So PK players never used it for that reason. So now they can use it without fear of an accidental light parry. This rework was put into place to make more of her viable. Not make her good.
Pretty much. Also the dagger mix ups can still be blocked/parried once you start expecting it and get the timing down so it leads to diminishing returns if you spam it or run into a parry god. Edit: I also find it sadly hilarious that they buffed bleed on PK to the point where the character's extremely reliant in it for damage output when it's one of the most hated things in the For Honor fanbase.
I love you for not doing an asshole reply and instead a respectful well mannered reply. It's a small thing you've done but it means a lot to me. But yeah provided you don't spam it and tactfully use it when you feel it necessary it should be good. Or if your opponent injects redbull into their arm and drinks five hour energy every 5 minutes to smell colors and feel letters with the parry timing of a fuckin god. You should be fine.
Amen to that. Though I have a feeling the more you get into higher level play such boosting tactics become par the course. Glad my response helped. A non-toxic match/chat in this game is like a breath of fresh air in my experience.
Would it be a stretch to say that pk has turned into the For Honor version of Lol's Irelia? Op for awhile until devs hear the cries of the fanbase. Devs then proceed to nerf character in question until powerful but more balanced. However the branding of broken never leaves and fans keep demanding nerfs until the character is wielding pool noodles for blades. Now the nerf calls are more for the memes than anything else. Am I crazy or is this a thing?
THE REAL TRICK TO PLAYING PK IS HITTING AND RUNNING. THATS THE WAY UBI WANTS YOU TO PLAY. HER MIX UPS CAN TAKE TOO MUCH STAMINA FOR STRAIGHT UP “FAIR” FIGHTS. APPLY BLEED- THEN BOOK IT. TO SHOW FOR THIS, OTHER ASSASSINS ACTUALLY HAVE BETTER WAYS TO OPEN UP THE ENEMY (WITHOUT AS MUCH RISK). THATS BECAUSE SHE’S ISN’T MEANT FOR THAT STYLE OF COMBAT. PK IS A DREAM FOR FIGHTERS WHO LOVE TO EXPLOIT AN OPENING AND CAPITALIZE ON FLAWS. HOWEVER, IF YOU’RE RATHER AN IMPATIENT PLAYER, PK MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU. P.S. On the Guard Break section, you do realize that you can stab twice and do nothing, which puts relatively safe distance between the desired enemy? This technique of auto-distance helps with her stamina management. Do note that I said “relatively safe”. Things like Warden’s Zone Attack will punish quite effectively if you’re not prepared for it. If you DO have stamina to burn, the extra distance created by the throw is definitely the better option. The triple stab should be used when you want to create an offensive. It keeps the close distance for all of PK’s gimmicks. STORY SHORT, YOUR ENEMY’S IMPATIENCE, IS YOUR BEST OFFENSE.
"Pk heavies dealing massive damage" Ha, funny. Every other assassin does more damage with their heavies, except for Glad who does the same amount of damage, but instantly.
ow my kidneys
Bricky ow my humanity
Edit: This is not an insult
Ayy dad, that berserker was me
Lawbro?
That Charlie the Unicorn reference ;)
This boy bricc when mama mercy guide
Warden:"we must take the volcano"
centurion:"for the roman empire"
peacekeeper:"welcome to south londen give me your wallet"
The only execution you should ever be using is the Ace Ventura one~
i have all of them...shit
As i saw that execution i was thinking where the hell i saw it before - yes Ace it is
Things can be said for the spin to win execution....
i dont even play this game... but daddy brick is playing and that changes everything
Why didn't you picked it up for free after e3?
PK BLEED > PK FIRE
"I understood that reference"
Well played my friend. Well played.
You forgot to mention any heavy can also be soft-feinted into a Guardbreak instead of only from neutral heavies (as pre-rework PK). You can dodge during the startup of any of your heavies so you can dodge back, do any of the three dashing stabs, or be super fancy and go into a deflect if your enemy tries to interrupt you...giving some pretty decent heavy mixups.
4:33 haha, still funny to see the ace ventura reference
Peacekeeper in a shellnut: hello sir do you like being STABBED???

Gage Hodges yo man I used to play pk as well so I agree with u
Damn welp all i can say is that im a rep 51 pk right now and all he said is totally true i allways say bout shaman the same thing that you said and they agree but i just wanna say that im a execution lover i will almost never kill you if i dont execute (unless im salty :P) and is just absolutely impossible to do executions on 4v4s gamemodes... and good luck trying to get an execution in 1v1 with you're slow ass heavys haha

2:24 Is that the Legendary Lawbro, question mark?
Didn’t expect a best girl FH vid so soon, aooo!
Thanks for picking my Gladiator Daddy Bricc
Idk why people say she isnt fun imo shes the funnest hero in the game
NimaLema i think shes fun cause shes fast as hell... and also cause i like to play as basically an assassin from assassins creed
Pk needs a 500ms side dash light where she spins and hits in the opposite direction for bleed damage.
what about soft feints into GBs or dodges? loved the video, I'm gonna watch all of your guide videos now :)
My second favorite playable.
I played pk for a lil bit but I try to time the block when the bar is red when your opponent tries to attack you but I kept on failing 😞
Yes, i have awaited for the for honor series. Orochi plez
I'm not sure either of those weapons qualify as actual daggers. Certainly her main blade would be large for a standard one-handed arming sword.
I still play PK and although harder to use, use her right and she’s just as godly, and the bleed can be applied very fast and in quick succession to do massive damage in short time. But definitely much harder to use.
You forgot to mention PK's back dodge range before they changed it for everyone. Not only could she effectively turtle up, but to dodges and she got to choose when someone gets to fight.

You can go for a grab in mid heavy attack, what I like to do is = Light, light Heavy into a grab ( Don't have to cancel heavy any more) =D
Can you please do a fast frames equivalent for for honor characters at some point?
The like a glove execution is from ace ventura right?
Yup, "It's in the bone!"
You have defeated Shaia LaBeuf! You are finally safe...
Bricky, you forgot one thing with PK that not alot of people know about. See can soft feint her heavies into a Dodge. (Coming from a rep 38 PK btw)
Are you planning on continuing this series past just knight heroes? Id like to see more and Im pretty sure other people do too. Dont end this like the casefiles please :(
Rep40 pk main , Love Her!! Just wish we could get A third light before the heavy, and to most others quit fucking lunging!!! that's rule number one!!
Pk has been my main from day one
Will you ever do the other factions sir?
you forgot the heavy finisher soft feint into guardbreak or dodge bricky boy
Tin Can seems official to ALL players, even Tin Cans.-A Tin Can
P.S. We need a joke/insult name for Wu-Lin.
Burning Templar communists
Bricky please tell me the lawbro is next
Sorry to be nit picking but the peasekeeper uses an arming sword. Not a short sword
That's not what option select means....option select if is you match the gaurd of your opponent when zoning you will either A: party them if they commit to the attack or B: hit them with the zone of they feint....conqs zone works in the same way
She might not be queen of the game anymore, but she’s way more fun to play now! :D
Great! Can you do an Orochi next time?
Orochis don't liberate the Volcano.
We need a Lawbro guide... plz bricky
How do u parry a berserker bayblade attack with Peacekeeper cuz I will just get my ass kicked by a berserker if I attempt to try and block bayblade 😒
Best videos!
Could you do a fast frame for octavia
P.s.love your content keep it up👍
Lawbros pole axe aka the shove and stuff also the impaled execution should be called I can see my house from here DEAS VULT BRICK
I feel like if you gibe her a disable that can chain into a heavy and/or light you would have a lot of her problems fixed. She is lacking diversity in her kit, which is a huge up hill battle if you are an assassin.
I was thinking they can mix in her dodge attack since thats her best opener... And only...
Seriously she needs more to her kit thats it. When she came out she was op because her attack values were stupid and her bleed. But they balanced that so now they just have a stale assassin with nothing to hold over other assassins.
Tbh I think the assassins class in general need a look at but PK mostly
Damn, that was MaliciousTwitch at the end! 😂
Some games are pay to win But for honor Is *SPIN TO WINN*
The stacky and bleedy girl
Squish with a thicc ass
How do you play the peacekeeper? How do you liberate the volcano? You dont
The "No Head on your Shoulders" should've been the "Call me Uncle"
she can softfaint heavy´s into guardbreak, shoudl be mentioned
Is it heresy for a knight to have dreams of a Viking raid?
Prachetas Nayse Leave the tincans behind, brother. Join us *stretches hand out* in Valhalla
Jesus Christ, you are talking like Ragnar now xD
Hulk Mysterio I would like for you vikings to have a character that resembles Thor 😀
Ekko chyu I'd prefer a fucking mountain of a man with a 2 handed Hammer instead XD
His gear could resemble Thor and be called Odinson or some shit XD
Prachetas Nayse Who says I'm not Ragnar? O_o
Bricks will you be playing any of the Chinese characters. They are kind of like mercenaries in the lore.
Sean Macri CEASE YOU WEEB
Tim Holzapfel but father Brick once made a video playing the aramusha. He is the true weeb.
Hype for Centurion gameplay lol
Can you do the orochi next?
François Allaire nice joke
Like a glove ...
Take a shot every time bricky says bleed
Dutch Duk I died from alcohol poun
i am surpassing my video-click speed right now
why u only do knight characters bricky
not saying i dont like knights i wanna see some good guides on some vikings and samurai
Joseph Kim in time he will
He also plays aramusha so there may be a chance for that one.
I think this game is spectacularly un-fun to play, but I still like listening to bricky talk about it for some reason
Yep. Same with Overwatch. One of the most un-fun shooter MOBA games ever made, but I still watch Bricky's One Trick Guides. He un-un-funs everything.
Where's the lawbro volcano guide? :c
Y-You never talked about her heavy feint game :C
“No head on your shoulders” should have been called “a little off the top”
Hey B R I CC, I see you're finishing up all these series, SYWTM, Volcano Guide, Fast Frames, and Overwatch. I'm happy for you, but what are your plans for after, I mean i won't complain an´bout more long content ala Fireside Bricky, but you cant meme the shit out of them, so do you have smth. planned?
CrankBlack He mentioned that after all his series are over, he wants to branch out so that people stick around for him and not the guides
yes, but branch out to what, that's what i wanted to know, he talked about a podcast, but except from that...
I see most pk mains are missing out on a few move sets that can give you an unexpected advantage in this rework... either that or they won't tell ya because it's a secret 😂 I know I won't tell but I haven't seen it leaked yet :' )
Please I'm new
DuhWorkGiver haha maybe one day soon. I'm planning to make a PK tip and advance guide video. For now I have a montage of My customed PK outfit put into action. Come check it out sometime on my channel!
@@HoshiBaka just checked your channel and i didn't see any for honor stuff. Did you remove them?
zinotus
oh yeah, sorry for the mishaps. Yes i had removed them. It'll be uploaded soon within this month to a new channel dedicated only to gaming.
The peace keeper ended up hitting all of my vital points
I don't feel like knowledge has been attained.
Did they just give her an Ace Venture meme?
FUCKING SOLD!
HEYO MORE FOR HONOR
Damn that was an old ass meme at the end
glad: now all you knights, best get away from all you neckbeards
*cent gos to leave*
glad: not you cent, your right were you belong
When you doing lawbro
Did they not change PK from the discount shaman to what she is now? It was changed cause the light soft front was the same timing as her heavy so you’d get a light parry on PK without even trying.

Or if your opponent injects redbull into their arm and drinks five hour energy every 5 minutes to smell colors and feel letters with the parry timing of a fuckin god. You should be fine.
Amen to that. Though I have a feeling the more you get into higher level play such boosting tactics become par the course. Glad my response helped. A non-toxic match/chat in this game is like a breath of fresh air in my experience.
Pk main since beta still a pk main now
Do the LawBro guide
Would it be a stretch to say that pk has turned into the For Honor version of Lol's Irelia? Op for awhile until devs hear the cries of the fanbase. Devs then proceed to nerf character in question until powerful but more balanced. However the branding of broken never leaves and fans keep demanding nerfs until the character is wielding pool noodles for blades. Now the nerf calls are more for the memes than anything else. Am I crazy or is this a thing?
Ok pk is definitely air quote "balanced"
just to add, the zone attack can be canceled into a bleed from any direction, not just the top.
Heavys deal extreme damage... Like 20 for real?
THE REAL TRICK TO PLAYING PK IS HITTING AND RUNNING. THATS THE WAY UBI WANTS YOU TO PLAY. HER MIX UPS CAN TAKE TOO MUCH STAMINA FOR STRAIGHT UP “FAIR” FIGHTS. APPLY BLEED- THEN BOOK IT. TO SHOW FOR THIS, OTHER ASSASSINS ACTUALLY HAVE BETTER WAYS TO OPEN UP THE ENEMY (WITHOUT AS MUCH RISK). THATS BECAUSE SHE’S ISN’T MEANT FOR THAT STYLE OF COMBAT.
PK IS A DREAM FOR FIGHTERS WHO LOVE TO EXPLOIT AN OPENING AND CAPITALIZE ON FLAWS. HOWEVER, IF YOU’RE RATHER AN IMPATIENT PLAYER, PK MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU.
P.S.
On the Guard Break section, you do realize that you can stab twice and do nothing, which puts relatively safe distance between the desired enemy? This technique of auto-distance helps with her stamina management. Do note that I said “relatively safe”. Things like Warden’s Zone Attack will punish quite effectively if you’re not prepared for it. If you DO have stamina to burn, the extra distance created by the throw is definitely the better option. The triple stab should be used when you want to create an offensive. It keeps the close distance for all of PK’s gimmicks.
STORY SHORT, YOUR ENEMY’S IMPATIENCE, IS YOUR BEST OFFENSE.
Ok but i need a guide to not suck with Lawbringer
Pk has bigger daggers than I do so ofc I main pk.
I thought of runescape from the thumbnail
Just play some viking while yoy wait for the nights too get the rework
Peacekeeper aka "The Hunchback"
Im a rep 7 with a rep 6 pk.
She’s like the fastest character, but wears mail and a helmy. Ok
Nobushi should be able to stack bleed. Fight me.
Sean Macri 1v1 nuketown, pistole only, oh wait...
3:30 I disagree. She’s too fast on console as is.
TH-cam, y u no send me notifications?!
unpopular opinion. I like playing peacekeeper
Plz Law Bro for last.

"Pk heavies dealing massive damage" Ha, funny. Every other assassin does more damage with their heavies, except for Glad who does the same amount of damage, but instantly.
