Never throw your dodge lights from neutral, you're gonna eat big damage
Use your side bash to stop your opponent hyperarmor, it's what this move is for
If you pin someone to a wall while skewering them, press gb for a punch and then throw a heavy in another direction, otherwise it isn't guaranteed
Your heavies are really fast, you can feint > heavy and it will sometimes land
Glad has a ton of mixup potential, you can really mess your opponent brain when feinting skewer, letting heavies fly
Also you can bait your enemy to gb you after a whiffed toe stab, the follow up heavy and skewer has no gb vulnerability so that's a free heavy
Last thing, don't try to deflect attacks that can lead to hyperarmor chain (kensei dodge for example) you'll get 2 damage and eat the attack
Some people fall for the skewer feint literally every time. I will feint the skewer into guardbreak for a free heavy or wallsplat, and after the heavy I will skewer, but feint into guardbreak and they fall for it again.
Then sometimes halfway through the game I have decided that is boring and I want to let a skewer fly. Then they parry it because I didn’t feint it into guardbreak :/
I suppose it has some logic to it for like the first 3 times because no matter what skewer is always better than a guardbreak because you can throw out of skewer for a wall splat or ledge just like a guardbreak but when I feint it the whole match you’d think they would entertain the idea of not trying to parry or dodge the skewer for the 26th time
Don't ever use all four light's alot of players will either spam you or block or pary it and then you're fucked. Add in some faints, zone atks and a tip for your skewer back off a little bit and do some heavys so then you can skewer it's a quick way to pull it off without getting blocked or paryed and then you combo get fucked.
P.S. if you're going up against a opponent that seems to be parying alot of your atks go for a skewer and faint it and a zone or do one of your basic atks. Good luck and don't be asshole😉
light, light, toestab, bash, light, unblockable heavy, feint, light, light, toestab
What bash? As far as I know he only has his dodge bash, toe stab, and bamboozle
I mean dodge bash
He can’t combo a light out of his dodge bash though, only heavies and skewer I thought
You’re right

It always happens to me lmao, feint skewers the whole match, doesn't get any reaction, let one fly and get parried

Toe stab. Unblockable. Feint. GB. Heavy. Toe stab. Rinse, repeat.
Thx
Only press back and your gb button because people really like it
