I don't think Daubeny would complain about how this portrays his musculature.

All super interesting points, though I have disagreements with a few of your premises. I'm not averse to doing stats again.

Honestly, if there is a takeaway from the stats overall, it's probably that "simple health and damage are way more influential than people think + Reflex Guard is a drawback, as most people understand."

Post them in the subreddit and see how many voices rally around one point versus what people belly ache about in the comments

Just to be brutally honest: the cold hard numbers never did anything to stop any disagreements. Ever. Not that that's really the goal of releasing them, but I've seen a lot of proof that this is exactly what won't happen.

Thank you! I think we've come a long way and gone through a lot of Testing Grounds to reach this point. We hope to continue progressing things in this fashion.

Thank you for using the meme format Emote at least. :)

The picture is even more complicated than just "a community of two sides" though. We also have in-game d a t a, survey results, and the dev team's intuition.

When players say we made the Gryphon changes in reaction to Reddit, that was not the whole justification. He had spectacular in-game winrates and was a huge topic in our survey data as well.

Similarly, when players said we pushed the CCU live because we only care about competitive players on PC: sure we want to prevent staring contests in tourneys, but it's also a game design preference. We have recognized the need for more offense in the game since very, very early days, and it's been a dev team priority for a while.

We have a holistic approach. So do the "different communities" influence us? Yes. But we never close off a source of feedback, or pick a favorite side. We have one game and we have to make one balancing decision for the build t...

IMPROVEMENTS

Gryphon

Side Dodge Attacks (Soul Cleaver)

• Side Dodge Attacks are now 14 damage (down from 16)
• Side Dodge Attacks can no longer be delayed in side dodges; they will now always happen at 300ms (previously delayable until 500ms)

Dev Comment: This should make Side Dodge Attacks more predictable, as well as making it impossible to delay to dodge on most mix-ups, while still being a good dodge attack that leads to finishers.

Veteran's Kick and Slash

• Kick Follow-up damage has been reduced to 24 (down from 28)

Gryphon's Shove

• Gryphon's Shove is now a Dodge Forward + Guard Break input
• Gryphon's Shove no longer chains after a miss
• Gryphon's Shove now costs 15 stamina (up from 12)
• Gryphon's Shove no longer pauses Stamina Regeneration

Dev Comment: The previous Back + Guard Break input of 600ms was unreactable for ...

Thanks everyone for all the feedback! I've read through the vast majority of your replies and tallied them to present overall feedback to the team.

It was a fun week! Love to see so many people enjoy these Testing Grounds. I have to remain somewhat mysterious about the future in terms of timing/roll-outs of the changes, but discussions are well underway. :)

Checking on this. Thanks for the tag.

It was truly my pleasure! I knew for a fact that this video was going to be great due to your involvement, and the other Ubisoft folks who didn't know of you beforehand were quickly convinced of that as well. :)

(Speaking of which, a huge shout-out to the content team for the amazing editing work, which I think elevates the superb content even further)

tl;dr: Bravo, Spaniard!

One significant reason we made the video this way is we had access to huge amounts of high quality footage from the Dominion Series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eujFElVDvQ .

Dominion also has a lot more moving parts, so the need for explanation is more present imo. People sometimes see a well-practiced gank and think it's just thoughtless spamming. One thing I really like is Spaniard explaining the difference between a successful gank and a failed gank by the *same team*.

But I'm all ears if you have suggestions for a video about Duels.

he's a pro to me

I think the crowd is from 2017 and recently got cutscene'd.

(Love this proud Gladiator)

Too stronk. ᕙ༼ ͝°益° ༽ᕗ

You are not, in fact, tripping. The patch notes are now updated. Sorry for the confusion caused!
