Nice I didn't know that !

Yeahh glad needs a rework. If they just straight buffed him he would be op. But he's bad as is

Yo that’s sick. With his oos toe stab knockdown back that’s pretty gnarly pressure when the opponent’s oos!

I haven't had a chance to really get into him as much as I would like but his kick destroys me I never can get the timing down to dodge it.

😂😂

Im w u i used to enjoy fighting him and i might be getting worse at this game but i cant for the life of me punish him they miss his tow stab i dodge try punish him skewer dodge that toe punish bam toe stab or dodge bash / light. I know u can punish him with dodge attacks but thats so risky since u cant faint most and he can faint the skewer the tracking on his toe stab so good and even heavy they track dodge attacks at times. I can dodge the the toe stab on reaction and prediction.

Why do you choose berserker for a counter for glad? I'm not a berserker player I'm just curious.

@NotZenith Basically, the near unlimited hyperarmor. If you try to deflect a berserker as gladiator, you eat a heavy attack to the face. Also his normal heavies do pretty low damage on openers so you can kind of just blow through his attacks with hyperarmor.

Sounds like a skill issue, the dodge bash can be so easily baited and countered if they mindlessly use it. And like you said toestab is reactable, there's way worse than Gladiator

He is extremely mixup intensive and easy to use, but... You're wrong about most of the things you said. He's actually extremely punishable, one of the most punishable characters in the game, which is the opposite of what you said. If you're looking for "safe" characters you should be thinking tiandi or afeera. Glad has no useful recovery cancels. His toe stab is his safest move, but it's still punishable by dodge attack on read. His skewer has GB vulnerability, his dodge bash has GB vulnerability. His OOS cutscene is not particularly potent and only 2 hits maximum, so calling it a cutscene is a bit much. But his skewer does 37 damage making it one of the most damaging single moves in the game both offensively and defensively. And feinting to toe stab beats almost every defensive option for most characters. He's a nightmare for people who don't know how to deal with him.

@51TD0wN take it with a grain of salt. All in all it comes down to what the matchmaking level is, character match up, and what modes you play. It's okay to disagree about these things. I disagree with your tiandi statement as I find it really easy to deal with them, however, I really agree with the afeera one because she really does just get away with too much

When I say safe, it isn't matter of opinion. It's a fact, and something you can test. Tiandi is just "safer" than glad. If kensei for example dodge heavies tiandis palm strike, or kick, tiandi can recovery cancel to avoid the punish, making him "safe". In the same situation if glad does his punch/skewer/toe stab/zone/heavy. Kensei's dodge heavy will catch it and there's nothing he can do about it. Plus some of those can be hit with a guaranteed guardbreak if missed, which isn't the case for tiandi unless dodged extremely early. Glad's are moves "unsafe" to throw out because they get hit with a guaranteed punish, while the same reaction against tiandi is not guaranteed, making him "safe."

“Erm”

which character do you use @tinykraken
