    This is a great tutorial that sheds light on the combat system from a high skill perspective. The biggest issue for me as someone is just starting to play ranked, the bots are absolutely frustrating. Sometimes they are easy to fight, and other times they are full-on auto aim auto counter killing machines that can pick you out of a bush. Hopefully it won't take long to get into full real player lobbies so I can actually practice these techniques lmao.

    Ah, thanks for the guide! Just like the combat guide, I feel like I'm gonna come back to this a couple times down the road. I am wondering what to do when you aren't the first to hold blue? In my mind there should be three options: 1. Genuinely trying to predict what the enemy will do and reacting to that - that I realize should be exactly what the enemy want if they are really holdchecking. 2. Playing safe by dodging out before enemy can do a 1.0 release - punishable by dodge plus vertical just as specified in the guide 3. Seed wrong impressions, e.g. actually parrying once at 1.0 timing but then not doing it again - depending on what you do, this could also backfire hard. I guess it all comes back to that as you aren't the one to hold first, you lost initiative, thus are just reacting to the opponent now which is a bad situation to be in. I don't see an elegant way of dealing with it for now :'D

    • @Penemue
      @Penemue  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can dodge less reliably and you will red flash against more enemy attacks. But enemies will also red flash more against you and you can juggle people higher, which means you can do more crazy combos and the timings are very generous for keeping enemies in combos.

    • @Darksaber96
      @Darksaber96 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Penemue In other guides, especially in combo guides, people often praise the higher ping that they play on. E.g. the apparent sweet spot of 55-70 ping. Your answer to me here sounds more like you think that there is a tradeoff, and not an inherent advantage?

    • @Penemue
      @Penemue  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@Darksaber96 it's a tradeoff. some people say around 40 ping is optimal because you have the best of both worlds. i am personally on 15-20 ping and i can dodge things other players can't dodge, but i have to be extremely precise with combos (e.g. longsword blue juggle) or else i'll miss them. and certain combos are unavailable to me.

    Hi heaven! Duos question - should I also focus on holding longer blue attacks and parrying like in trios? I seem to get beaten up by one guy with light attacks and the other guy hitting me with focus attacks. And sometimes I can't rely on teammates to peel for me immediately.

      you should not play duos. if you have only 1 friend, go quick party trios and get to know new people. duos is a trash gamemode with no competitive relevance that rewards you for slacking and being bad. your average unrivaled asura duo player is on the same skill level as a platinum-solar trio player. at least in EU

      It’s has nothing to do with balance, netease just made the decision that they want to promote solos and trios as competitive game modes and duos as a casual game mode. So they fill any spots in duo lobbies that aren’t filled after a few minutes with bots. That should tell you everything. And it makes sense because you need a third player to get you out of trouble in team game situations

    So just to clarify, the 1.0 would be when the blue focus does it 1st "ding" right? So then .5 would be considered a half charge and 2.0 would be a full hold or 2nd ding of the blue focus?

    • @Penemue
      @Penemue  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah pretty much. Though halfcharge can be anything from 0.1 to 0.9, the term is perhaps a bit misleading. But “less than full charge” sounds silly, so we call it halfcharge.

      @Penemue  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      various options, here are some:
      1. parry and follow up with F, this is like parrying twice in a row with no gap
      2. hold, dodge backwards and parry if they release a slow long-range attack
      3. you can surprise them by being the first to hold and releasing at their 1.0 timing, they won't be able to scissor parry you
      4. hold, dodge backwards, shoot with ranged
      5. if they always release at the same timing, you can parry to counter that timing or their hit with a dodge and light attack stagger them in the back
