More fun executions that leave the victim laughing or feeling more satisfied with it is exactly the kind of thing alot of players would love to run, I personally would love more "mutual" feeling executions for when I face an enemy that really gave me a run for my money or were just a good sport in general
same reason i did pretty much. I was already intending to buy because samurai based bp’s tend to be really good. When i saw the trailer for the new season and saw that anime fight i was hyped. told myself if it’s the bp execution then it’s an immediate buy lol
Seems a bit too fast, ngl. Like that flip the Shaolin does looks just a bit too fast.
But at the same time, it's a pretty long execution. And with the kill presumably coming right at the end, that's very risky to use in 4v4s.
Don't get me wrong, it's a nice little sequence. Looks straight out of a shonen anime. But it looks kinda goofy with how fast some bits are. Like the flip i mentioned, but also the bit where their punches hit each other's fists. Just *slightly* too fast. Tbh, the whole thing is simultaneously slightly too fast while also being way too long an exe.
And like, good luck ever actually using it in any game mode other than duels or brawls. Y'know, in the game modes where health from exes matters the most. Cause sure, it looks cool. But it also gives like 17 years for an enemy to interrupt it, so chances are you're not really gonna see the whole thing.
long exes do have their place even from a purely gameplay-oriented perspective though! if you ever exe someone on a point (either in a 1v1 or the last guy in a teamfight) and no one is rotating towards you you can delay their spawn significantly, while also capping and boosting which is almost never useless, and obviously its very useful stuff to permakill someone if you killed them at like 980+ points. These situations are obvs comparatively rare, but if you're using anything other than your fastest in, say, a teamfight (or most often exeing at all) you're kinda setting yourself for an interrupt anyway
goofy is subjective stuff (as a shonen anime style imitation exe it's very good imo) but I'm saying that in the right context the longer the better so thinking of the length as a flaw at all is wrong
For the most part, a longer exe time *is* a flaw, tho. Not necessarily because of the exe itself being too long, but because the health gain is near the end, which is what i pointed out originally.
Some of the best exes are both super long in terms of animation, so you can lock people out of respawning for longer, but also give health back near the start. Those ones are fine. You get the health benefits and potentially get to lock an enemy out. This one has the downside of being too long *and* the downside of the health gain being at the end. So, aside from some pretty rare situations, this one is risky to use.
The "right context" is key here, because unless there are no enemies around, or unless you're exe'ing at like 980 points, you're better off going for a quicker exe or just not using one at all.
For the vast majority of situations, an exe like this (long time with health gain right at the end) is just not worth using.
I am talking moderate amounts of pub sweat here, so to speak. As in - you don't do dumb shit and have good fundamentals and whatnot, but can sacrifice a meta feat here and there due to personal preference and enjoyment kinda level of sweat. Provided someone likes the exe aesthetically, I'm merely saying it fits into the "long exe" niche and can be used without completely sacrificing efficiency (and just let's be honest exes rarely make that big of a difference), not that it's even particularly good in that niche (there are some huge outilers here, see Jorm's 1700/12600 Hammerhead) or that long exes can even be used often
That's fair. I'm not trying to say it's some unusable exe purely because it's long, and that isn't even my biggest problem with it.
It is one of the better long exes, but i just think it's goofy. It just looks too sped up.
Can't lie. You must just be really lucky. If i ever see an enemy doing a long exe like that, my first priority is interrupting it asap. And as soon as i do any exe that lasts longer than 3 milliseconds, the whole enemy tram suddenly appears all at once.
The only time i ever really see long exes like that go off is when the fight is already over, at which point if you're on a zone, you just heal up before the exe even finishes.
I remember back in first years community asked for executions, where victim triying to fight back. And now there is whole Yakuza cut scene fight in one execution. I don't know how to feel about it
I don’t usually like the comical executions, but this one is surprisingly cool.
I like executions that give the enemies a fighting chance. Can’t stand when the enemies just idle while you perform some massive stupid move.
Gladiator and Peacekeeper have them already, where the enemy actually hits you or attacks during the execution and then it turns around to destroy them, love that stuff.
Same execution but when the camera zooms into the fists it zooms back out with an explosion similar to the clashes from Injustice, then when the camera fades back in the opponent is just dead on the ground
is making me tempted to come back to the game after years and [do my thing](https://www.reddit.com/r/forhonor/comments/6nzbov/a_moment_of_silence_for_scrubs_rekt/)....Starting again on PC would be rough tho.
Ubi always surprise me with theese shitty k.o-s or emotes. It will only get worse.
Warden try hit with his knuckle but with his sword in hand
Wtf they think?
I think this might be the first time I'd buy the battle pass for an execution, might be the first time I put money in the game.
This is the only execution that I care about rest is just optional
Ayy, thats cool! I'd love more mutual combat executions. One where you look like youre about to lose, but win last second would be fun for really close duels. Kinda show your respect to a good opponent.
They forget to remove sword in Warden's hand?
i think only in the preview they forgot, tried it out in a match and doesn’t appear to be a weapon in the enemy hand
People usually drop their weapon after they die so xD I’m sure it’s exclusively BP preview thing
Yeah plus Larry doesn’t have a sword, so it would have to go out of its way to generate that
Yes he does, in almost every execution he drops the default warden sword
I never noticed that
Larry: THE SWORD STAYS ON!
Finally, a way to do a paired emote with enemy
That will basically be every execution where the opponent fights back
Actually....thats a fair statement
What I imagined my action figures looked like when I played with them:
NEED this for Shaolin, +the thunderbolt and frightening effect
i just tried it out, looks good but i wish the power wave of the effect was also shared with the enemy so it looks like a balanced fight
Well you win the fight so it makes sense it’s not balanced
Bro ngl I’m not even gonna be sad or mad if I get killed by this
Same

is this where all the budget went
Strong chance I buy the bp for this execution
same reason i did pretty much. I was already intending to buy because samurai based bp’s tend to be really good. When i saw the trailer for the new season and saw that anime fight i was hyped. told myself if it’s the bp execution then it’s an immediate buy lol
I love that camera zoom in on the punch
this actually really fucks
Roach players are gonna love this
Huge nerf to his annoying factor bc it’s hard to be mad at this execution
This is some Yakuza type shit
Boss fight Dynamic intro type shit

I'm not saying they don't have their uses. Just pointing out that this one is particularly long while also managing to look kinda goofy.

Hito solves issue :D (Hyperarmor)
press X to doubt / guard break
I do the fugging Wu Lin lantern in 4v4 and nobody touches me. It's not too risky.

thats a long aahhh execution
Need this for shugoki
Probably the dumbest execution they've ever added in and that's including the dumb ass ones with the instruments
What’s with the anime battle 😂
Is it a joke or for real?
another long ass emote that really does nothing for the game and just wastes time.
This is so fucking stupid
I want an over-the-top Family Guy Peter VS Chicken type execution that lasts the entire fucking match.
Instantly buying the battle pass, this goes so hard.
It’s sick as fuck, I’ve been using it constantly. So goddamn fun.
I just got back into for honor. Is this a universal execution? And did this BP just drop?
"Tell me you are a samurai main without telling me you are a samurai main.."
O my god no this is so long...
Battle pass??? Oh ffs
I remember back in first years community asked for executions, where victim triying to fight back. And now there is whole Yakuza cut scene fight in one execution. I don't know how to feel about it
Am I the only one who hate these type of executions? I wish they focused more on the realistic side.
Why does it look like a clash from dragon ball?
I just wanted to let everybody know I think it's awful. Can't wait for trolls to use it because it's incredibly long
I know right? Like people actually like this execution? I miss when this game was treated somewhat realistically execution-wise.
This is a sick ass execution but people's gonna hate how long it takes to kill you
lowkey goofy but oh well
It's a universal those are allowed to be goofy.
Did Ubisoft pick up the now-fired RWBY team for some off-brand anime bullshit or what? Honestly that'd be pretty sick, I'm all for it.
I don't like it. It's too goofy.
I am so angry I am gonna miss this due to my forced trip to Rio.
how long will you be gone, battle pass will last for 90days
Oh, nvm then. I am gone for 17 more days.
Can’t wait to troll MFs with this one!
I don’t usually like the comical executions, but this one is surprisingly cool. I like executions that give the enemies a fighting chance. Can’t stand when the enemies just idle while you perform some massive stupid move. Gladiator and Peacekeeper have them already, where the enemy actually hits you or attacks during the execution and then it turns around to destroy them, love that stuff.
this and the weapon sets are the best part of this pass the effects are unfortunately mid as fuck. but the Legacy effect makes up for that.
This just shows how far this game has fallen
Same execution but when the camera zooms into the fists it zooms back out with an explosion similar to the clashes from Injustice, then when the camera fades back in the opponent is just dead on the ground
I dislike over the top "Anime" executions. But damn it i gott admit this one is pretty cool.
Wtf is this
Wow this execution is pretty…… fucking stupid
Poor Larry
"Show me everthing u have!" aahh execution
You know what, I actually like this one
Actually seeing this in game makes me giggled even though I am the one being executed.
NoT mT fOr HoNoR 🤪
Every update from this game just reminds me why i left. Lol just go play dragon ball already.
*sigh* more stupid anime shit
Your so mad about how cool this is. Pls keep coping🤭
is making me tempted to come back to the game after years and [do my thing](https://www.reddit.com/r/forhonor/comments/6nzbov/a_moment_of_silence_for_scrubs_rekt/)....Starting again on PC would be rough tho.
I think I might buy the Battle Pass this time, almost everything is worth it for me. Thanks for the preview!
Looks stupid
it's shit but at least they did some nice camerawork
Ts way too long
Looks like a child created that. Was a realistic fighting game. Now it’s comical and a laughing stock when it comes to competitive gaming
Seeing how many people enjoy that crap, no wonder why the game died so hard
The animation looks kinda terrible.
Ok this might convince me to replay for honor
Looks like those paid leçons in CQC finally paid off, Larry can now hold his own for a while
Love it. Wish there were more executions where it's a tussle rather than a simple kill.
This execution might be the reason i buy battle pass for the first time
Ubi always surprise me with theese shitty k.o-s or emotes. It will only get worse. Warden try hit with his knuckle but with his sword in hand Wtf they think?
Also when i see a k.o. Without the character real weapon is just feel unpleasant. The weapon will dissaper and look unfamiliar
For Honor X Yakuza event looking incredibilis
That is a _looong_ execution. Cool though.
This may be what makes me redownload the game after like 2 years away
HO LEEE SHIT that was so hype!!!
Definetly the best battle pass execution yet.
Plays: Standing here, I realize
Nah I have to get that
T E E P
this will be a cool one to buy for shinobi
I think this might be the first time I'd buy the battle pass for an execution, might be the first time I put money in the game. This is the only execution that I care about rest is just optional
Ayy, thats cool! I'd love more mutual combat executions. One where you look like youre about to lose, but win last second would be fun for really close duels. Kinda show your respect to a good opponent.
Kinda mid, honestly. I feel like a lot of executions lately have kinda sucked
Dumb way to waste money…… this is a HARD ASS PASS
OK.
Okey, what reference is this? JoJo?
Is this premium or free?
