So something happened in the uploading or recording process and the in game audio seems to have been corrupted 😂 fuck my life, but the music, gameplay and commentary audio is all good, so yea...hope you all still enjoy 😁😁

[@STARPHASE]

The long recovery for the bulwark counter is why I don't see the move as OP. And you can't get into it if you're being berated by attacks if you don't block and transition into it. It's a great move, but carries a heavy punishment if you miss, and it is, obviously, easy to guard break. My favorite use for this attack is being outnumbered, and when the raiders charge at you and try that tackle move. Pretty sure nothing will catch them off guard more than their unblockable charge getting flipped over.

[@LUST1stSin]

Thanks for this video. I'm just now getting back into the game and I saw the Black Prior and was like, "This is my new favorite Character" but I kept getting owned by other people. I learned a lot and know I'm getting a lot better with him.

[@ThePimpKaz]

One of the best guides I have ever seen, very understanble and easy to follow. feel like I know everything with this character now but I just got to put that into practice so I can be consistent.

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

Went online earlier today, had a full Shugoki team. We stuck together at almost all times. Almost the entire enemy team s*** themselves even just seeing us. Except their Black Prior. That guy was a badass, and pretty much just couldn't die. Eventually it came down to just him vs. The 4 of us: The fight went on for 4 minutes, he was parrying almost every shot, dodging every grab, and even took down two of us (but due to numbers, he couldn't stop me from reviving my friends). Eventually, the guy finally went down to 3 unblockables landing at once. But considering it took a whole 4 players just a match the guy... I'd say he was a bit scarier than our team.

[@riastradh]

That was actually Vortiger

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

@@riastradh Probably. I was kinda expecting him to flip the entire team with one counter at some point.

Nice one, been playin this class a lil while now, just wanted some extra knowledge and you delivered with no bs, cheers.

[@mcchubbz2975]

Simple: find a way to abuse the fact your bash does 20 damage. Get your opponent oos and exploit the bug while it still isn't patched.

[@Reavyne]

Mc Chubbz Does 40 damage if u land a light and go into the bash for the second light (which is insanely easy to land majority of the time 🤣)

Man. Ubisoft has really created an interesting, intricate, intuitive, and honestly fairly well balanced (in that every attack has a clear counter for it that can compensate for any and every attack) fighting game. This game is still going strong after four YEARS now. This is amazing. And it's so easy to learn. You can go in and spam and slam all you want and you might win. But there's also these incredible intricate combo chains that do so many awesome animations and unique attacks. What a game

[@TerrorUnleashed]

[@Hkpirate11]

To me it's easier to 1v4 then 1v1 simply because its constant revenge, unless ofcourse they have a centurion constantly spamming you or a raider constantly charging you.

[@squidwardtenticals2451]

[@Hunter1393B]

[@Monster3Games]

great vid. got my boy to rep 6 today

[@lisaparker1768]

Thank you

[@triodino6505]

very good video

[@Dyvinell]

Theres also the fact that because you can instantly go into bulwark slash/ bulwark counter the second you enter bulwark stance to where the full block doesnt even appear before the move, and that you can go into bulwark after a light or heavy, and that bulwark slash counts as a chain starter, all of that combines into a “infinite combo” that he secretly has. You can do a normal two hit chain but follow up immediately with bulwark slash (or counter if youre under a lot of pressure) and then if slash hits or misses (wont work if parried or feinted of course) then that counts as the new first hit in his chain and you can now chain a light or heavy finisher directly after. Theres also another trick not mentioned where you can actually bulwark counter the attack part at the end of someone else’s bulwark counter. So if one of your teammates gets bulwark countered and you happen to be there and havent gotten caught in it too, you can wait until that unblockable slash at the end and bulwark counter that (and possibly save your teammate from the actual damage if you are before them in the attacks path). This is really good but also a little broken. I was in a breach and had the enemy team ganking me in 2v1 or even 3v1 sometimes and one would throw an easy to counter attack to bait my bulwark counter and the other one would be waiting in bulwark to counter my counter and they repetitively did that because they knew it was my only safe move in that situation. I feel like you should be able to feint the final hit of bulwark counter to save yourself from situations like that where you get anti gank busted and just get even further ganked.

[@k1ngw1ngjr10]

Very good and informative the only critic I can make is I wish you would say how much damage each punish does but overall this guide was amazing I do realize sometimes he did say the amount of damage

[@valmardon1183]

I really need some help. I play on controller how is your setup ? like feint and stuff.

Funky Surgeon Haha that it is! And I got to continue dark souls 3 for sure, apart from that I’ll be covering whatever other games interest me as they come up along side for honor 😁

[@ngo_3103]

If you get a gb then the oos punish from top is locking off and light to heavy, plus you can get a zone off of a parry. Also you can get two side heavies for the oos parry

[@connort.6702]

I wanna get Black Prior bc he’s the only Knight I do not have and my friends say he sucks but this video helped me out a lot and none of them have him so I can catch them off guard

[@badgeerr7278]

his guard comes back with the out of stam punish, meaning he can block the heavy.

[@ctpexx112]

That intro is the coolest thing ever

[@drphizz6697]

Don't forget about dashing forward with a heavy will apply a crushing counter if they are attacking with a top.

[@arcane7318]

Thank you for this lol

[@Reavyne]

Sleeper_Sam No probs 😁

[@demonpheonix2043]

I appreciate this video because I am trying to pick up a better character to use rather than Warden. Definitely will give Black Prior a shot.

[@TheArmidillionAire]

From my experience, if you throw the top heavy later in the forward dodge you'll get more range.

[@xen8097]

The flip can also be used against falling attacks

[@3percenternation568]

Great vid. All i can say is they need to lessen the recovery time a bit cuz it so risky to use the flip no one uses it. Witch makes him boring to play in pvp cuz ur really only left with fairly safe attacks like bash and light.

[@filmheim1140]

Came here for the guide, stayed for only 15 seconds to watch that intro. Sick bro....

[@akumakami9727]

Probably my favorite knight to play as besides Warden 😊. I mostly play as Samurai, but I try to find at least one character I like with each faction.

[@TheKaled27]

why top heavy in the oos punish, side heavy also does 40 damage

[@Rafique-st4kj]

I am quite glad that the time to attack after switching guard is now 100ms

[@ying2765]

whats the intro song its pretty nice

[@kaipelrine6491]

18:05 the top heavy is not guaranteed if you hit them at a wall that’s very close you have to wait for them to actually fall back on it

[@codyclark6779]

Just got enough steel for this bad boy (I always waste steel on effects lol). This guide is super informative and very thorough! 10/10

[@shanerowsey4867]

So am actual tip I wanted to point out is to play using a mix of aggressive and defensive play style to catch ur opponents off guard. You do this by applying pressure and keep smacking them with ur shield and then they tend to get overly aggressive that’s when u flip them.

[@WvSharpshooter]

Didnt help me personally as I figured this out already BUT for those who didnt know, it was a great video and think itll help a lot of people get a feel for BP or get better with them. Went over everything nicely and was entertaining watching you unleash Dahkness on the unwitting bot.

[@Reavyne]

ArdentSeer Cheers! I really appreciate the comment and the kind words 😁

[@snowdrifter6187]

"Show them true darkness!" Yes Bp just keep bashing em in the head with your shield theyll pass out soon enough from the head trauma xD

[@revantheno-lifedemon885]

5:50 i hate that delay cuz i try to make ppl dodge and than want to guardbreak them and he tries to bash 'em which ofc won't hit

[@joelhernandez41]

It's somehow even more annoying in teamfights because of how fast it is. Although if the enemy team is bad their buddies will at least interrupt it before it does damage. I also don't like the fact that he can headbutt after a wiff, but at least you should be theoretically be able to dodge it.
