Heroes in History: The Gladiators

[@L0wLife95]

I like to think that gladiator doesn’t actually know he’s in a war he just thinks that he’s in another Colosseum fight and when he dose his roar of the crowd feat his fun and roses execution and some of his emotes it’s all in his head

[@halfcarnage6259]

Interesting theorie

[@oceanic9348]

Got roman punched so much he doesnt know whats happening

[@kitooro7361]

That just makes gladiator more intriguing

[@johanwilliamsvonrotesfeuer645]

So he is basically pyro?

[@pink-flower.]

the entire game is just thought up by a deranged glad

[@echo__dot9744]

You forgot to mention the fact that the only reason the gladiators are in the faction war to begin with is that the great empire (where the centurions come from) were so desperate for troops they basically HAD to send gladiators and prisoners to help the knights in the war.

[@robertsteiner4696]

And the Knights still fuckin lose the God damn faction war every time even with them lol.

[@mkdemigodzillawarrior]

You know, I kind of wonder what would the Gladiator would have look like if For Honor used a different gladiators as their basis. I mean, it would be cool to see a Gladiator using a Sica or a Scissor along with a Scutum (since the Centurion isn't going to use it). Granted they would lose their long range advantage, but at least they would be protected somewhat and have a slight defense.

[@mr.pistachio9970]

A little tip for the glad gameplay: I would recommend doing dodged bash, heavy, then feign into gb

[@tygarner9142]

Get that free side heavy, then either toe stab or skewer. Rinse and repeat

[@theredcinder7437]

How badass would it be if glad had a net for his unblockables, buckler is cool and all but.. NET

[@RavenKnightYT]

Treat net as a trapping tool maybe?

[@sh4rds0fgl4ss]

I feel this series doesn't get enough attention, but Idk cause I haven't looked at the views, comments or likes untill now cause I'm just so interested in the video

[@Toastapher257]

Watching this 2 years after release. Seeing the marching fire trailer was so nostalgic 😫♥️ FH used to be so good.

[@mal1362]

This is gonna be a Glorious battle. Wouldn't ye say

[@alexpelayo1038]

I remember reading that for honors gladiator is a mix of the retiarius and hoplomachus

[@mudshrooze]

Gladiator and Shaman are the only Assasins I put a lot of time into. Gladiator being my third most played character. I do like Berserker and Shinobi but dont play em much And Shaolin Is technically a Hybrid with Assasim qualities and the Shaolin is in my top 10 characters

[@Bumpkin33]

I've been waiting for glads episode so I'm excited

[@alec-1134]

Hey! I just want to say I really like your content. Ive watched all your Heroes in history videos so far, they are very good! I am looking forward to more videos of yours in the future!

[@corvus5215]

love the new mic

[@hyenascreech2183]

You forgot to mention that one king in particular at one point outlawed gladiators killing each other at all.

[@choosinkien268]

I thnk the glaidiator is suppose to be a mix between different glaidiators

[@echo__dot9744]

He is

[@Iansparda]

Go back to school.

[@burkesullivan9086]

What if an army of gladiators led bu a centurion

[@mkdemigodzillawarrior]

Hm...I mean, it is possible, but I feel like they would be more like shock troopers rather than actual soldiers...well, maybe like the Knights' berserkers who charge into battle first. The Gladiator's lack of chest armor would hamper their battlefield effectiveness by a lot.

[@burkesullivan9086]

@@mkdemigodzillawarrior now that you say that I imagine an army of gladiators (at least the for honor version) using ambush tactics when in large numbers.

[@nikosaurus4238]

@@mkdemigodzillawarrior berserkers were vikings not knights lol.

[@averagemadnessenjoyer4747]

I was waiting for this video

[@kevinnorwood8782]

Literally the only thing about this video that I kind of don't like is that you barely mention Spartacus at all. At some point in the future, I'd love to see a video from you where you give your full thoughts on the man, and whether or not you feel he deserves the amount of hype that he has gotten over the years.

[@HinoTestsuExtra]

Not the Retarius the Hoplomachus, who had a spear and a buckler whose armor including the padded brace on the arm carrying the weapon the leg braces and the helmet, the only discrepancy may be that the Hoplomachus used a spear not a trident…

[@holysaintknight343]

Heyo fellow knight.

[@Tracer_Krieg]

Here's my question to your point at the end of the video: if you had to arm the Gladiator with equipment from the Knights faction, what would it be?

[@jaegercat6702]

Perhaps a rapier to replace the trident. More practical for battle, but takes equal finesse.

[@nonedanone2565]

@@jaegercat6702 Rapiers wouldn’t be accurate because it belongs to an another era. There was many class of gladiators. In for honor we have the retiarus. If we had the murmillo instead, glad would have a Gallic shield and a broad sword.

[@johanwilliamsvonrotesfeuer645]

Give him a bigger shield for leonidas's sake

[@justinhudd1757]

I thought the Fishermen gladiators fought murmillo (fish) I think

[@anakinskywalkerthechosenone316]

They might have but then again the Murmillo also fought against the Thraex which is based off of the warriors of Thrace. So Secutor and Retiarius would be more common then a Retiarius and Murmillo.

[@xArtorias-x]

Gladiators had feet

[@hirschmeistr6842]

Portuguese soldiers from the 1990s also had feet… weird coincidence

[@unspun1YT]

A fact that isn’t stated enough

[@Yannis88s]

still really cool

[@Texasmule]

Glads used all kinds of weapons like the conqs chain ball

[@hirschmeistr6842]

My god that intro confused me I thought it was an ad

[@ghostdivision836]

Id love a Net throwable

[@derangedtortoise909]

U should have mentioned if a noxii gladiator one

[@snuggyxiii7642]

Ancient Rome gladiators still lived very well compared to the basic Roman slave gladiators beds would be heated for the winters and they were fed very well because they were the people entertainment also volunteer gladiators some of them just want to get the attention or just for the food and warmth a gladiator gets.

[@mircolaufer4796]

So you want to say to me that Spartacus is not right ?

[@signor_zuzzu]

Ave Cesare morituri te salutant

[@Zatoichi_2003]

Hey check out is KZbin channel about called New historia, one video is about gladiators. There is a class of gladiator that used a spear and a shield is very close to for honor gladiator

[@choosinkien268]

But should female glaidiator be morw common since rome conquered alot civilizations ?

[@mal1362]

Nah alot of conquered women were sold to other fields of "labor" not many were made into gladiators. From what I've heard and read

[@choosinkien268]

Oh thnks i was curious

[@pxrposewithnopurpose5801]

i can make u a good intro if u want

[@snuggyxiii7642]

Most gladiators were boys hardly any gladiator was a girl and the female gladiators maybe adored by the people but lots of Romans saw those female gladiators as a disgrace to their gender.

[@AmbroseBoaBowie]

5:48 I think more men watch women UFC then actual women for a similar reason… o don’t get me wrong I’m not belittling you, I do the same thing. What I would give to have any one of them just punch me in the face as hard as possible…. Let bring back Roman female gladiators!!!!

[@memasik_user4340]

I always mispronounced the word "retarius." By saying "Retardus."
