I personally love warlord when he's calm and slow, it matches the "lord" part of the name. Like a battlefield general who's worked his way up but can still out fight younger boys and doesn't want to exert himself unnecessarily.

[@Sparking_Ram]

Always loved Warlord's personality as he shows the most respect to opponents and often offers them quick deaths... I remembered the one where he hammers the sword in with his shield but we're gonna ignore that one.

[@Zayl1016]

Yeah I really like it when he has this sense of being in control and a master swordsman despite being also hulkingly strong. His respectful one where he stabs you and then closes your eyes and pats your shoulder his this, "you're a good warrior and I respect you, but you never stood a chance" energy as he's so calm during the whole thing. I like ones like these where it's like, he is a surgeon his the sword and shield, but remember that at any point he can deck you into a flip.

[@jacktheripper5112]

@@Zayl1016 most the cast have their own feeling you know, orochi is cocky and likes to style , warden is dutiful and loyal, he doesn't care about honor or such just his duty, shaman....... yeah idk wtf is she about, these kinda things always make the game special to me

[@Zayl1016]

@@jacktheripper5112 I agree but one thing I like t hat adds to the flavor is you can kind of "create" a personality. Warden is pretty righteous (in the literal sense) but with certain emotes, signatures, and executions, you can make him a cocky tyrant. Valk has executions that show either a finesse or raw power with spear and shield and I have two different builds basically exemplifying the differences.

[@MountainManCurt]

Not jorms. I want one where she just goes beserk and punches, knees, and hammers them to death. Just random attacks really fast.

[@OnceIWasBooker]

I would have put wardens in A tier personally, i like executions where there is some resistance or fight back from the guy getting killed and the sound design is great. I would also put cent's in S tier solely on the noise it makes when he knees it into their throat.

[@TheBlackWarden420]

It's also the first time Warden gets an execution that's like, "Stop resisting!" or "Don't TOUCH!" like Orochi, Valkyrie, and other heroes with that kind of execution.

[@theitalianmexican1035]

I agree completely. I love animations in games where the person getting attacked/killed actually fights back or resists a decent amount before getting finished off.

[@uiu820]

Me personally I think Jorms is the best I just love how they use the weight and momentum of the swing to boost in the air than come down like thunder

[@WastedAlmond]

Yeah, executions with some fight are generally pretty good. Makes the losing side look like they are at least competent. Some of the executions where the opponent goes from competent to 'Wuh?' in a heartbeat get pretty old, or at least are generally less "cool" or impactful imo. Prolly because jokes do get run down.

[@aer0340]

What irks me is that there’s no sound of the sword stabbing through both of the wrists.

[@Zayl1016]

Did you take into consideration the camera play during some of them? It adds a lot IMO when the camera is dynamic during the movements like with LB, PK, and nobu's. I agree that Warmonger's is the worst, which is a shame. It kinda did a double whammy of being disappointing but also being a similar feel to her others. I like it when executions can 'establish' different sorts of personalities like Warden having honorable and dickish/cruel executions. Warmonger had a lot of cruel executions and with how regallious you can get her to look, I was hoping for a waywardly honorable execution.

[@ACE-vj8vr]

You're wrong

[@edoardoluppi6455]

I'd suggest to take a look at raven knight's video, he analyzes these executions pretty well :) at first, I thought as well that warmommy was trying to do highlander's execution and failed, which looked odd, but that's not what she does. When she punches the sword, she isn't trying to slam it in the ground; she uses the punch to change the sword's angle, sending the hilt and the thicker part of the blade all the way up their opponent's face. That's why it's called "obliteration", because every bone and/or organ the opponent has gets cut and smashed by the sword. This consideration ranked hers very much higher in my opinion

Warlord should be A. It's telling me that Warlord is kind of tired of war, a bit disappointed of the opponent's skills, and just finishes it in an efficient manner. Definitely cool enough to be an A tier.
