I haven’t seen anyone talk about it directly but I’m pretty sure her heavy pin attack wall splats like pirates if you don’t throw the guaranteed follow up attack
A clue we missed from the serpent sword season is one that told us it would be an assassin hero & what kind of weapons she would be using, at the end of the intro you see General Zhu, Warmonger & a Peacekeeper; Peace keeper is an assassin with dual wielding swords….. Khatun is an assassin with dual wielding sabers/swords…. This can’t be a coincidence because it aligns perfectly with the rest of the clues about her being a Mongol hero but this is one clue we all missed. She’s looks badass tho!
Turko-Mongol inspired hero. I like it. The origin of the word "hatun" is Turkic, although it also has historical usage in Mongolic languages due to close cultural and linguistic interactions between Turkic and Mongolic peoples. Etymology and Usage Turkic Origin: The word "hatun" originally comes from Old Turkic, where it referred to a queen, noblewoman, or empress. It was used to denote a woman of high rank, often the wife of a khan or ruler. In Old Turkic inscriptions, such as those found in the Orkhon Valley, "hatun" appears as a title for royal women. Mongolic Borrowing: The Mongols adopted the term from the Turkic peoples, especially during the period of extensive interaction in Central Asia. In Mongolic, the term "khatun" (Хатун) became widely used and retained the meaning of a high-ranking or noblewoman. This borrowing likely occurred during the time of the Gök Türks and later during the Mongol Empire, where cultural exchange was prevalent.
I discovered something when practicing her is that when she does her heavy after parrying/gurardbreaking/deflecting or her unblockable heavy in Fear and Fury and you *don't* follow-up, she actually wallsplats your opponent forwards after a bit which gets you another heavy for more damage and lets you continue the chain
Has anyone notice that quite a few of the heroes (since Warmonger) copy feats or moves of heroes recently reworked? Edit: Adding Warmonger who just took Nuxia unique T4 corruption to a whole new level. Biggest notice was Jormungandr being reworked with heavy wallsplat, then shortly after Afeera dropped with practically the same mechanic mixed with Shinobi. Now Pk's feat rework is kinda what this hero has mixed with Afeera T3 feat (dashing with fullblock)
Thats how you know this game is dead they also got rid of valks heavy feint to bash because it was too good just to give it to this character who is already overpowered
@@omarherreros9867 The difference is that she got an indefinite full block with a bash, that could also be canceled immediately or dodged out of. Bash goes into finisher/strong sweep attack. Feint to GB is pretty good because of the fear of the bash since it's quick. She still has heavy soft feint to full block and forward dodge full block. She's still a better hero than what she was before 🤷🏽♂️ Majority of Khatun's soft feint can be dodged away from, with minimal repercussions. Practically no different than Aramusha. However, from what is shown, it's likely that you can GB her missed kick (Aramusha too, but can still fullblock if its a dodge attack)
@@Joemama-xw2wy I feel like it's the other way around and was copied mostly from Afeera's feat since PK's new feat is literally the same but allows you to dodge in any direction.
@omarherreros9867 No, just no. The game still has a dedicated playerbase across all platforms. The whole reason they reuse animations is because they have no choice. Ubisoft don't care to give For Honor a bigger budget. So before you label something as "Dead" have a think.
Finally, someone who’s both unique and isn’t a gimmick. I feel like we haven’t had that since probably medjay (to be fair, pirates unique, just mid design)
I feel like it would look infinitely better if it was just a still stance change rather than a running animation, it just looks wonky running in place. Sides that looks cool.
tbh i watched devs streama nd alot of other videos on her moveset but HAVOK explained it best cant wait to play her tomrw edit: a question does her deflect break hyper armor?
daamn i wanted to see the rest of the feats, i don't want another VG with 10 passive feats and only t4 offensives well she's coming out today anyway so, doesn't matter :-)
She looks really cool, but also seems like she will be awful for confirm ganks with that pin move, especially since you get it from a teir 4 to just instantly throw it out. And also being able to dodge recovery deflect out of your all deflect is pretty fucked
@TheNecroFisherman yeah, cause 100-0 are healthy for the game and make fun interactions. I recon she will be the one confirming, she doesnt have massive damage attacks but one guardbreak let's her pin you, setting up stuff like gryphon and shugo top heavies. Also she shouldn't get pin off guardbreak, shinobi already showed us why that's bad for the game
@@TheeMonkeMan well ofc the pin itself will confirm heavies. But people will 100% be bash confirming, gb, or light confirming the impale/pin. Then that will confirm the heavy
@@TheNecroFishermanoh yeah i get you now. She also gets the pin with her tier 4, which is 45 second cool down.🙃 4's is gonna be rough for a while. She'll be cool in duels though
So she has normal deflects and the run deflect. My question is, does the enemy have enough time to block the pin off of guard break? Because if the guard break punish is guaranteed 2 heavies then she’s gonna get nerfed 😭😭
I wonder what the guard break vulnerability is like on that soft feinted dashing auto deflecting all guard? Like if you buffer your inputs does it just stuff GBs?
Same as any full block hero you trying to interrupt. Its pretty much as long as the guardbreak makes contact before the input is registered. Like Kyoshin or Warlord
I don’t play For Honor, because it cost me 2 mice and a keyboard, but I’m happy for you guys. New hero looks fire and I’m always for female heroes. Do you see yourself getting her to rep 80 Havok?
Just like every new character You can buy her with real money tomorrow when she's out but if you want to buy her with steel you can't until two weeks later I THINK it is so you'll have to wait a little while if you plan on using steel
I saw nova's vid, i can guarantee that shes gonna be nerfed bc shes basically like an assassin but she almost maxed out her defensive abilities. Shes most likely S tier, im deciding between super high A or just straight up S but she's S for sure bc she does every class's job better just without unblockables and armoured attacks

Precisely!
Aramusha Warmonger kensei
SHe is cool. Big potential but require some dedication, cool feats, animation, emotes. Can't wait to play that
She looks insanely good, I will definitly download For Honor again (big mistake)
Just remember she’s going to be just as brutal to fight against. Use it as a fun learning experience and you’ll be good and even get crazy better too
That's what what I thought too 😂
all that kit just to be used by a bunch of dodge/light spammers
I haven’t seen anyone talk about it directly but I’m pretty sure her heavy pin attack wall splats like pirates if you don’t throw the guaranteed follow up attack
Glad we get to play her the next day, I’m pumped
It comes out 23?

@ hell yea 😈
FINALLY A DEFLECT WE ARE COOKING WITH THIS ONE
No we aren't this game is dead they're taking all the skill away from the game just cause people can't deflect

That do be the proper way to parry ye.
It's called the strong of the blade, as it's where you have the most control over your sword

Dude, people are gonna be so fkin cracked with this char
she is on another level i am looking forward to playing her
I saw that a scene from the movie Mongol: The Rise of Genghis Khan showed a method of fighting with two swords.
12:15 monty python emote and we got the rabbit execution too from previous launch lol
Yess!! Finally someone understood those references!
@ legendary movie and so happy to see it in-game😎
@ me too I remember when I saw the rabbit execution for the first time hahah. Bought it instantly for my warden.
Her last execution straight up looks like Baraka’s MK2 fatality lol
Ooooh, her name was Kahtun Kidd (capt. Kidd) as I sailed, as I sailed!
the new hero looks good and hope ur doing well

You are goated for this Havok love u
She looks great. Can't wait for tomorrow.
Havok keep up the amazing videos ❤
Almost her whole kit is pure reads
Ive been looking for comments like this, used to play daily pre CCU. This looks like a nightmare
Ooouuuuuuu the light after the pin is a false edge cut, hell yeah dude!
I love this hero, she's definitely becoming my new main.
I just want stunning tap back.
Finally, someone who’s both unique and isn’t a gimmick. I feel like we haven’t had that since probably medjay (to be fair, pirates unique, just mid design)
How exactly is pirate unique other than her having a gun when it’s basically a bash
@@Odd_goddreplacing bash with feats, gunshot is very unique mechanically.
@@knightmare1267 this.
Hey Havok! I loved the stream has a bunch of fun!
With really slow heavys and zones i kinda hope she gets a dmg buff as its not a lot
the fashion, OH MY GOD THE FASHION
I feel like it would look infinitely better if it was just a still stance change rather than a running animation, it just looks wonky running in place. Sides that looks cool.
It's obviously for closing distance or catching runners.
i already know she is about to tilt me into oblivion
Ubisoft: we want to make the game fair and balanced
Placing both weapons on her back? Is she protecting her back from incoming attacks?
Its a historical stance, with 2 big weapons its very difficult to defend with, so offense is more important in the stance
INTERESTIN'!
So while dashing forward, she gets full guard stance???
Gonna make so many anime outfits with khatun
Zoro, cid/shadow
I can already see the shino/khatun pin gank 💀
diligently did all my orders to save for mummy mongolia
Wonder if her auto deflect is like the flip but just for normal attacks like how during the flip on bp he can’t be hurt
yeah it is most likely she’ll just keep deflecting as long as its normal attacks
Oh conqs definitely getting wrestle 2
I already know I’m going to be making a Malenia cosplay
Bro I can’t wait to main this hero😩
tbh i watched devs streama nd alot of other videos on her moveset but HAVOK explained it best cant wait to play her tomrw

She looks sick 👏
assassin, high skillset, new warmommy (sry warmonger), and cool lookin charachter. ubi cooked !
Nothing a monk can’t handle

She looks really cool, but also seems like she will be awful for confirm ganks with that pin move, especially since you get it from a teir 4 to just instantly throw it out. And also being able to dodge recovery deflect out of your all deflect is pretty fucked
Nah she will be perfect. People will be CONFIRMING FOR HER. Not her the other way around. Depending on the hitstun, potential infinite 100-0

So you get to play Afeera (fun), Aramusha (fair) AND Varangian Guard (feels badass) at the same time?
I’m going to enjoy playing her damn
Which heavies can you finisher off of, (besides the normal ones)
So she has normal deflects and the run deflect. My question is, does the enemy have enough time to block the pin off of guard break? Because if the guard break punish is guaranteed 2 heavies then she’s gonna get nerfed 😭😭
Are the softfeints softfeintable?
Can she also do regular deflects
She stands out from the rest of the characters. Too strong
Not really. She's fresh mechanically but she isn't gonna be any more powerful than currently powerful picks like shinobi, afeera, Shaolin etc.
I wonder what the guard break vulnerability is like on that soft feinted dashing auto deflecting all guard? Like if you buffer your inputs does it just stuff GBs?
Same as any full block hero you trying to interrupt. Its pretty much as long as the guardbreak makes contact before the input is registered.

You should come back and try her! I’d even add ya and we can do customs
maybe you did cover it but how are the recoveries for her bash?
Bad, definitely guardbreakable, as it should be
Aramusha looks weird in this update.
is it buyable with steel when releases?
Just like every new character You can buy her with real money tomorrow when she's out but if you want to buy her with steel you can't until two weeks later I THINK it is so you'll have to wait a little while if you plan on using steel
May you PLEASE show us the drip
What are her non unique feats?
for once im actually kinda excited about a new char
Can you do the rush foward off a whiffed attack?
Probably not, that’d be cheap
yes
Why tf aren’t the inputs in the right side of the screen
I know they have to do attila the hun for a hero skin
no one ever shows the armour options

Wtf 😂😂
I like the stances, but the animations are a bit meh.

shes to aramusha what warmonger is to warden lol

TH-camr!
Idky but she just dosen't feel real to watch 😂 8:31
Like I feel like she's unnatural for me to use 💀
They get rid of valks soft feint bash just to give it to someone else? This game is dead
Another female character, damn they need to not gender lock any characters
I saw nova's vid, i can guarantee that shes gonna be nerfed bc shes basically like an assassin but she almost maxed out her defensive abilities.
Shes most likely S tier, im deciding between super high A or just straight up S but she's S for sure bc she does every class's job better just without unblockables and armoured attacks
Idk, she just feels very clunky and honestly kinda boring to play with
