The 50/50 hero where no matter what you eat a heavy

She is a type of hero that minor changes could spiral her into being overperforming. Happened with a lot of heroes in the past with reworks

I think it’s just stupid that she has priority on her crushing counter dodge attacks. Shinobi undodgeable mixup doesn’t even work because she counters it, same with Valkyrie mixup. I know you could just feint to parry but it’s so dumb that she’s the only character that invalidates both of those punishes

Good video mate, really great explanation for the hero and you did a great job a explaining whats missing 👍

How have I not heard of this channel before?! Your videos are thoroughly entertaining!

6:06 they saving those move abilities for Spartan outlander lol

The edit is fantastic great vid 😮

4:20 any other WarFrame fans recognize it?

Finally some good content

great editing. seriously well made video

love the vinland saga lmao something of note, she has crushing counters on the chain lights and her dodge attack. the dodge attack can be giga brained and option select some undodgable mix ups (like against shinobi flip to undodgable)

Your content is so good it makes your voice super bearable

I just feel For Honor devs should give some heroes the ability to dodge forwards to cancel attack recoveries, not the ability to dodge anything crazy but it allows a small change that could be good for someone like the Varangian I think, or I also think Jormungandr and Centurion would have at least something different too that I personally feel they're missing

i like ur choice of music throughout the video

I 100% agree with you and went through the same thing with her I want to love her I even did the training to see if I can find something unique. She's not my favorite hero but I'm still gonna keep playing her.

playing her a bit and she feels like she doesnt really have a follow up to fainting like i feel like a headbutt or shield bash type hit like how cent is might work well as a extra option

I do like the way she plays, especially in 4s, but I do agree she needs something in her chain to make her offense more interesting. I wouldn't be opposed to a middle chain attack to give her some variety. My idea is make her second attack be either a light without cc but still enhanced, which leads to her normal finisher, or a heavy with small hitbox but hyper armor which leads to her finisher, or you can charge the second heavy and it's her normal finisher unblockable but where it can be light interrupted on read like Cent's unblockable. It's an idea that I have no idea how to balance but sounds cool in my head.

I've had a ton of fun playing her, then again I enjoy playing characters with simple but effective movesets. I do agree I rarely do anything else other then unblockable out of all guard because of the buffs she gives everyone in 4v4. However I'm surprised you mentioned you light with her a lot due to the fact if I were to try I'd get light parried easily so I often use heavy or bash to start fights

3:50 you got that sweet plot armor that lets you light the air and somehow hit your target

“Needs a buff” is crazy

Took you long enough to make a video I was beginning to think you were dead.

I think the only change i would make for varangian is maker her have a bash to be used in combo and maintain her chain attack, but keeping her heavy as a finisher and combo end And maybe give her hyper armor ONLY when she performs a superior block, just to avoid getting your punisher broken by some random coming up and attack you instantly cancelling your punishment (it might not be common, but when it happen, oh brother It's painful)

I just unlocked varangian guard yesterday and I was very underwhelmed with her moveset. I played with her in 2v2 for like 4 hours. I was so excited to get another shield heavy class hero who's focus was on defense. that's why I decided to do what you did and look to see if there's something I'm missing. from my limited experience with varangian guard needs more offensive chains she can do. it was very hard to keep my opponents guessing. and I think she would benefit if her full block stance wasn't temporary. how can you call her a defensive hero when other heavies such as Black Prior and Conqueror are much stronger at defense.

She’s fine as is she’s just more defensive focused she’s a solid B, B+ hero and that’s okay not every hero is gonna be exceptionally strong and while her offense lacks her defense is incredibly potent.

I like VG but damn it feels like she falls short compared to other heros most times seems like I do better switching from one person to another do a light then do a unblockable and switch back

id say its the meta that hinders her that and what i call the law bringer effect where you only have one or two Comboeses that are very predictable and relays on defense

People will just tell me to get good but I feel she needs a slight nerf to the speed of her lights and heavies nothing to drastic. But every time I light parry her it feels more like I guessed correctly rather than a skill-full reaction.

What was the game you showed for like 2 secs in the mining break? lol

So is the second light a guarantee or what because it seems to be guaranteed if the first light hits

"We have BP at home"

Can't argue with someone who spent 10 hours on the hero. I don't think anyone has ever spent that much time on anything ever.

I really like the idea of giving her more follow-up options out of her axe pinning moves.

I love playing Varangian guard and I don’t want a buff because then I can brag to my friends that I play a bad hero

i just like women that scream at me in a mix between old nordic and byzatine greek

I was expecting you to make the same just bread joke but i wasnt expecting a ham and cheese. Still good but not as good as a burger (bp)

I don’t know about buffs and balancing, but I know one things for sure: I feel myself losing braincells every time I feint into a full block, they do a dodge attack, and my full block is gone before they hit me. Maybe it just needs to last a little longer?

Her offense may be vanilla but it's over powered in dominion. Huge hit boxes and enhanced lights with a very favorable animation. I love when a VG hits me in the back with an unblockable heavy from a mile away.

A new hero not being OP? Thank god 🙏🙏🙏

Needs a nerf hardcore I’m alright with buffing other parts to make up for it but nerfs as follows -lights need to have ether crushing counter or enhanced property’s not both in a 1v1 you are playing her game and only at her speed and in 4s she can just spam and hit your teammates with guaranteed damage for no risk as well as she has a safety net that if you do lights in the same guard even if by accident she wins starts her mix up -that shield stun needs to be toned the fuck down some characters legit can’t play the game when she’s around I’m alright with her following up but not stunning you the babysit gank is to real and being able to burn revenge is not chill - and lastly canceled ending recovery’s with stance is broken as fuck because she recovers to fast if it was like bp where it’s a punish after a read fine but she’s safe on this move and it makes killing her an impossible task sometimes where you are forced to bash and revenge feed I do like this character but never in the history of for honor has a character ever come out that literally stops you from playing half the cast that’s not healthy at all I get it externally getting hit in not fun but I’d rather that then literally sitting there waiting for her to tell me when I can play the game again

Does anyone else feel like Ubisoft just hates the Vikings? I mean there’s some of the supposed worst characters in the game in that faction And they also have horrible customization, except for Highlanders skin, which is actually awesome but other than that they just try some Conan the barbarian customization options, and I feel like most of the characters I wanna play are just kind of outdated, especially with today’s characters and meta. I desperately wanna play warlord and raider because they are pretty cool, and I like their play style, but raider has gone through so many ups and downs, and I feel like he struggles so hard against new characters and warlord is a safe option and he is good but very basic and not the most fun thing to play I have been hunting through every article I can find to see if they ever plan to rework him

it needs abuff

"I think she just needs a little boost" Procedes to list a whole rework. Jokes aside Varangian has been a great brain dead time lol

VG is kinda Bogus -CCs on both lights? -CC on Dodge light -Both those windows seem easy to execute. -External Hitbox on lights and finisher heavy is INSANE! -She can slow time like Bayonetta with her full block

Hmmmmm. Pirate, comes out broken, afeera, basically still broken, ocelotl, broken (for ganking on release) most heroes coming out with something broken about their kit, *enter new viking hero* oh, would you look at that THEY NEED A BUFF, I love ubis care and want to see the vikings shine ❤ (I sware they looked at their schedule and were like "ughhhh gotta do a viking season 😑")

They need to get rid of it, I’m winning duels at 95 percent with vag that’s not normal in the slightest 😂

For some reason the newer characters are so boring and so simple in their moveset, the only thing in my mind that I would consider fun is afeera, she got a whole lot going for her, compared to the rest of the outlanders and VG.

I didn’t get her since the Varangian guard aren’t female and that inaccuracy bothers me outrageously….I’ll stick with flippy mace girl

can someone please tell me what the little mining game was 😂

She’s balanced until you have another vg there in a fight and if your fighting two of them and getting ganked then she’s extremely broken and it’s seeming obvious that people are getting bored of her straight forward warden 2.0 50/50 mixes that they’re just bashing and dodge baiting the bash. It’s very boring and needs a new feature to her moveset other than that boring chain. She also needs an increase in how much she feeds revenge when ganking and yes she probably shouldn’t have a crushing counter dodge light that’s excruciating.

Was there really a female Varangian Guard in history?

They are running out of ideas, I just like the axe and shield. I can finally make my khorne warrior >:D. This was probably the first hero I waited to buy with steel, she just looked so bland. She's like a worse bp with a pin that is useless in duels. As for the Aztec, I thought he would be my main, but I hate the hunter stance so badly and sometimes my dumbass accidently goes into. I wish they would just remove it and made it a dodge forward heavy. These last two heroes have been lackluster, not sure how they will spice them up going forward or maybe they have just given up.

Tbh personally I hate the fact her blockade is slow like compared to my 3rd main musha her version of blockade makes no sense I rather play musha because blockade is way better for example the light after zone of zerk is ez to counter with musha blockade but with vg its literally impossible it makes no sense to me why they add another hero with a blockade that arguably worse then the blockades we already have I'm pretty sure bps is even faster as I can flip orochis deflect but or the light after zerks zone but vg is just mid

10 hours? I spent three weeks grinding xp, getting armor for 3 active perks, just so I can say I don't have a reason to play her anymore

You mean nerf

a….. BUFF?! ok tweaker

100 percent skill issue hero f###s

no need to watch the vid u are actually so clueless its funny

I think the character is ok, but her abilites are dog shit and the other classes have way too much shit that makes them just better against her. For her abilities T1: Take shelter i feel is dog shit. If you're in a team fight you're most likely never using the SBlock. You're going to be prio parries just because the amount of unblockable feint spam is in the game. Body Count.... do i need to say more? Not good minion clear. And stamina and health gain extremely negligible. Speed revive. Its ok T2: Ward. Extremely negligible cant even tell. Thick skin. Same thing as ward, but i feel is just plain better Thrilling Comeback: with hiw inconsistent venge is. This ability is just downright useless, and even the healing is not noticeable. T3 Aesir Aura: its okay. Its just a small atk buff for hitting your "trap" move. Punch through: imo just not good. Chip damage is just really neglegible especially when most people have, and throw dodge attacks over blocking. Shouldnt even be T3 feat. Protected revive: its ok. T4: Reclaim the land: just give me the debuff banner/aura. The ability can only be used outdoors; which means you cant even put the debuff in indoor locations. Regenerate: its just passive healing out of combat. Its ok i guess. Stalwart banner: i believe its just a bettet regenerate, but on a CD and for the whole team. I feel that the worst thing to deal with for this character above all is other Sblocks in team fights. Every other character except WL(i believe) can just hold their block without reprecussions. To fix this just add stam drain for holding hell priors passive gives him healing for holding; so why doesnt he lose stamina for doing so. Kyoshin flips his sword around so why doesnt he slowly drain stamina while holding. In TFs its much worse cause if they're both holding and you GB one. The other attacks immediately so you're stuck. Lastly they just need to rollback venge, or rework it to be consistent. Especially with DOTs like nobu bleeds

Awful video this character needs nothing else playing against her is not fun at all (stop giving everyone dodge attacks

I can not stand how annoyingly loud and obnoxious they keep making the new characters. I can hear this she-hulk screaming from across the map. Not to mention her and that shield/mace harpy screeching non stop every .5 of a second a game starts.

I think the majority of the community agree with her needing a mid chain bash of sorts
