Conquerer with heal on block is a monster for controlling points.
Do the advanced practice to figure out the timings for parrying, how to external block, counter guardbreak, etc.
Find 2 or 3 classes to focus on, rather than unlocking all of them.
Try to save boxes and steel for boxes until you hit prestige 1 with a class so that you're rolling in a better gear pool.
And remember
When you hit Rep 3 you want to spend all your ressources on gear, because then maxlvl (18?) gear drops

Do you get those drops from scavenger crates or from post-game drops? I was under the assumption that Rep 3 nets you purple gear from scavenger crates.When you hit Rep 3 you want to spend all your ressources on gear, because then maxlvl (18?) gear drops

I haven't reached it myself but I assume you get good gear from all types of boxes and after a match.

Rep 3 with Kenzie! :O Have any tips? Trying him today and it's pretty frustrating.

I've seen a 102 Gear Score and it was Orange. Didn't get to play against the guy though because he dropped shortly after the match started.

So you get the same stats on purple gear from
Rep 3 to 30? Or does the chance of getting a lvl 18 purple increase as you get to rep 30?

I saw a guy with 107 and his number was purple. Odd, I guess it isn't related to the number but the gear quality average or something.
He also sucked.

That is what I love about cod games, as soon as they die if they have a mic you get to hear the rage lol

Play a lot of duels. Eventually you'll meet a mirror match who will beat you constantly. See what they are doing and just copy their style.

Playing from EU, haven't had any latency issues in duels or brawls. Maybe two or three hiccups in 4v4 after 30+ hours of play.
Ah okay, not too bad them. Is the learning curve pretty steep?
I think the game is very easy to get into but there is a lot of depth to work with when you get deeper into it.
i Won a match because, even if my adversary was defending up position, my heavy up attack hit him anyway so there is some lag or delay

It would be extreamly painful...
Digging into the Conqueror. Really enjoying the heavy charge up, baiting enemies into attacking then parrying & smashing them with the charged up attack.
Except when they decide to run away and I waste all my stamina. Is there a way to cancel out of the charge attack anyone knows of?

Should be Circle(PS4) or B(Xbone).

Cool, thanks. I'll give it a go.
While I'm here: anyone in the UK on PS4 unable to access any other languages than English and Russian? I bought my copy from Amazon, and remember the open beta letting me switch to usual EFIGS languages but the full game only has English/Russian and nothing else.
It's not a huge deal, but I kinda want German VA for Reasons and I'm a bit miffed it doesn't let me.

My big Berserker guide will be up today! Text only for now, but I'm planning to do recordings and webms to display tech soon.
This is the fucking salt I live for. I was in tears after this hate mail.
The fuck did you do to him xD

Play from mid range, and feint heavy attacks into light attacks. Sometimes whiff the first 2 swings of your combo from range to bait your opponent in, then let the third side heavy swing rip for an uninterruptible attack.
To be decent with Kensei you gotta be able to condition your opponent and get in their head.

ARGH! A Dominion match abruptly ended with an error right as I got level 4 renown for the "get 350 renown in a single match" quest, so I didn't get it! Thankfully it just took a couple more games to finish that quest.

Played about 10 hours since launch, Conqueror is my favorite class so far, I just love knocking people down with a shield bash, winding up the flail and blocking attacks. Me and my brother team up to do 2v2 duels and those get pretty intense sometimes.

I have a load-out for Dominion and Skirmish that prioritizes attack and sprint speed, and one for Elimination that prioritizes defense and building/maintaining revenge mode

I look forward to it! Berserker is a class I'd like to learn, only I think I need to map dodge to a shoulder button--my thumb isn't fast enough to hit A while I'm switching stances during the infinite combo.
Right now I spend steel on upgrading weapons and scavenger packs. I've got a boatload of steel, so I'm not exactly spending it willy-nilly. When I lose my champion status, I'd probably use it to get back the champion status--I say maybe, because right now I think it's not really worth getting.

Defence and throw distance. I play warlord so his throw is huge already.
I fight people away from ledges so they are less worried about the guard break, if I catch them I run them off the edge. The throw range is so rediculous people don't expect it.

He ganked him of course.
Isn't throw range the range of your grab, not how far you push?

It's how far they travel from the grab then the throw.

I wasted all my damn steel unlocking heroes, when I didn't know you could trial them

Dunno what they were thinking with splitting daily orders and contract orders by PvP and PvAI. Nobody wants to play Players vs. AI beyond their first couple matches. That's fucking dumb.

Had a 3v1 Elimination in our favor against a nobushi, we were giving him the courtesy of fighting us one at a time (which he probably would have won tbh), but he immediately ran to a bridge to try and cheese us with knockoffs (which one guy fell for) so my friend decided to do the one thing cheesier and called the warden's mortar thing killing him instantly. That nobushi left some tears in the chat boi.

This game doesn't have p2p in the standard sense of how you would think it is implemented.
There isn't a host that all other players connect and communicate to for synchronisation. You are basically broadcasting everything you do to every single player, and they do the same thing, but nobody is waiting for answers back; all player information just runs through a synchronised simulation, this means that all connections are basically 1 on 1 connections.
So if you are "lagging", it's not because of a laggy host (because the host doesn't exist), but because of your connection to the player, or vice versa.
Personally, I've had zero laggy games since the first technical test; the "synchronising" state only pops up if someone drops that happened to be the "session host" (this player doesn't host the game, they host the invite and handshake information).

I dont assign the vs. AI even after I complete the vs. Player orders. Hopefully they see people ignoring them and get rid of them

Welp. I was terrible online. Lost every duel. So many characters on screen that it's times hard to see which way to block.

Spend time with Bot LvL2 and once you have that down go to Bot LvL3. Once you can "hold your own" against the LvL3 Bot online will be a piece of cake until you reach the higher MMR.

You'll get used to knowing which sides to block, I went into this game blind not having played the beta's got my ass kicked for a few days brutally. But it gets easier.
Try 2v2's and 1v1's. As others said, other modes are chaos.
Played this game for a while. Played it in the beta. Not sure how this game could be considered balanced whatsoever. Unblockable attacks not landing, guards not landing, guard breaking is well, completely broken. Most matches are who could throw other person off edge.
Trying to have fun and my win percentage in duels is pretty decent but man, its tough having "fun" when most of my losses and wins feel kinda cheap as opposed to any skill.
