Yeah I mean, every new hero get it somehow, but here it's so obvious I can't believe they genuinely thought the community would be fine with that. I give it 2 month tho, because they want us to grind, and they need to find the right balance in increasing sohoi normal chain damage vs his special finisher. Also I predict that this finisher will be dealing 50 damage because that's the biggest healthswing we have cirrently with shaman (reduce by the removal of bleeding, but easier to achieve)
In duels i don't see the character being an issue, cause remember; his attacks actually have to land. Then by the time they do all land chances are you're already close to dead regardless. But for team modes, that is where i can see the souls getting stacked constantly. Especially in group fights. Curious to find out if external hits will register for soul gain hits
@randomnobody2194 yeah. Guess we'll find out, but if the souls only register on lock on targets, then unless someone is very good at target switching and opponents are actually letting the hits land, then the character really shouldn't be an issue. Especially with lower base damage.
Finally. An actual unique character that even comes with a unique gimmick. It wasn't clear though, can I not follow up my light openers with heavy finishers and vice versa?
@@jacksonville9642that sounds quite difficult to get your soul charge all the way up, especially for the last one if the person your fighting is paying attention
About 75% of what hitokiri 4th feat does. Hitokiri 4th feat is a flat 200 damage and sohei soul stab is max 149 damage. Real question is if guardian buff stacks with his passive buff.
@@Katray... The real issue will be 4s. He can have his 6 souls from killing a bot, then just go one shot the next guy. Just think his anti gank ability. In revenge there's no way you don't get souls. Then after you get a 1 bash kill, u can use tier 4 and get another 1 bash kill. Anti ganks gonna be broke af
@@carsonhorton9827objectively wrong, 2 guardbreaks give you all 6 souls Guardbreak into light gives you all 3 light souls and guardbreak into heavy gives you all 3 heavy souls
@carsonhorton9827 GB can be a zone or triple light, or triple heavy input. Triple light and triple heavy give you 3 souls each, so yes, 2 GBs will give him all souls The tradeoff seems to be that the triple attacks do very tiny damage, so it'll be hard for him to be fighting one person and kill them without using the bash, so he won't be able to just save it and run across the map to one-shot someone else very easily
@jacksonville9642 yeah that's what I'm saying. So he has to choose whether to kill an enemy he's fighting more quickly to avoid getting out-damaged, or build up his souls to use his bash on someone else. The latter being probably a lot less viable
@@MrScrake building your souls up will still be the far better option since once you have all 6 of them your opponent knows he'll die at the first parry he eats, gives you a lot of leverage and control over the flow of the battle
Do they not realize this character replaces a couple heroes of the weapons he has? Like instant hyper armor with unblockable? Instantly makes him better than old heroes and now they’re gonna have to tune the whole roster again🙄
So TWO GBs and you get Six souls, then with your FIRST feat that recharges every MINUTE you get an instant kill. Wow, brilliant design 👏👏👏. Oh wait sorry and his third feat passively increases it to 119. W.T.F. I love how unique he is, this is honestly the coolest character ever, but bro.
Yeah but with how strong his GB’s are you’re not gonna let him get those off. It’s like playing near a ledge, you’re not gonna parry nearly as often because you can get insta killed with any GB.
This game is so damn badass its insane. But when i bought it and played it was way to difficult..i started off in the story first and i was pretty damn good. or so i thought. I could barely get 1 or 2 hits in in a casual queue match and after like literally 50 tries of me believing that i could learn how to play this game i gave up. I like watching it tho. Yea ik big skill issue
@@GrimViridian use your brain I win a fight on one area I have six stacks. I now have my 1 and three. I go to another fight I one you and now if I bash you it’s a one shot. 149 damage.
Please consider open world.. with HORSES and just connect all the maps.. some areas for chillin and trading, others for war.. and some for high stakes.. customization 🤑
I don't get it. Why is this guy magical and special? Is it because we're out of ideas? I feel like the game has moved so damn far from its original intent that now its just a fantasy RPG with fighting game mechanics. Don't get me wrong, it's definitely cool and feels unique, but it's TOO unique. No one else in the game uses "soul magic" or whatever the hell is going on. No other character can do special powerup moves outside of feats. This is just jarring to me.

Gotta go find that mortal blade
Damn mortal blade got turned into isshins yari
@@Iisserul new character thinks he’s the sword saint Isshin
Look up hell's paradise that's where they got him from
I respect that you have consistently played This game for years now straight
because there is nothing like it
One of his executions better be him taking those swords off his back and killing his opponent with them.
There isn’t one, unfortunately. which feels like the most blatantly missed opportunity
I think there should be like 1-2 for each weapon he has
well theres a battle pass execution for that😂
The swords are only on his side just saying
So do we think Sohei uses glue or Velcro to affix those weapons to his back with no visible straps?
He collecting souls dawg im not worried about straps lol
He’s got hooks on there that the weapons clip into
So how long yall think until he gets nerfed? I give it 2 weeks until the grace period ends and people start complaining about the 149 damage
The day you can no longer buy the hero is the day they start nerfing
Thats some riot games ability balancing
If you ever saw them nerfing Hitokiri’s 4th feat, then you might see them nerf this one.

What about gb? Just two of those and he has all souls
They don't freeze debunked it
@@ekho6532 in all reality your play style is most likely going to be based on preventing gbs
Finally. An actual unique character that even comes with a unique gimmick. It wasn't clear though, can I not follow up my light openers with heavy finishers and vice versa?
You can only chain lights with lights and heavies with heavies
Or you can chain both to a zone attack
@@jacksonville9642that sounds quite difficult to get your soul charge all the way up, especially for the last one if the person your fighting is paying attention
@@Zach_Zorn He also has dodge heavy’s and dodge lights to make things easier. But other than that, your gb is gonna be your best friend with sohei
@@Zach_Zorn Just guardbreak twice snd you've got your instakill
Eh, only being able to use the same attack twice seems clunky, removes a lot of mixups, also a 149 dmg insta kill is ungodly
This guy with all his weapons and moveset looks like some twister sekiro boss
I can tell this will be a interesting character i am going to love them
No!
Damn the character is huge
I have only one question how much damage is the commander going to take in breach with the soul stab move if it can land?
About 75% of what hitokiri 4th feat does. Hitokiri 4th feat is a flat 200 damage and sohei soul stab is max 149 damage. Real question is if guardian buff stacks with his passive buff.
Where does nova stream and what is the account called?
7 Mostly cosmetic extra weapons. Top tier design right here
I think Nova gonna main Sohei.
My biggest question with his 95dmg atk, can he farm midlane for the 7 weapon souls? Would then make it a million times easier to get it
He's not even out yet and I already dread/hate fighting him
If u cant win against them join them
He's not gonna be hard to beat, watch out for GB'S and parry/deflect depending on who you're using and try not to let him get many parries himself

@@Katray... He has unblockables from all sides and a soft feintable zone. You're gonna get gb'ed alot and it's going to cut fights extremely short
@@MVRosie that's the only thing I'm concerned abt 💀
lol I just finished rewinding and watching your stream to watch it :D
nova king looks like mr beast uk version
He lowk looks like Tom Aspinall who is fighting on Saturday
Lol
wish they put this much effort into the knights heroes
and i cant wait to get external'd by a 149 dmg insta-kill
White is the color of death in Japan, it would be quite fitting for your customization
Did I miss the executions?
HOW DO I USW THE MOVE HOW DO ISE USW IT WHAT BUTTONS DO I CLICK I DONT KNOW HOW TO FUCKING USE IT
149 damage is insane
Not going to lie im going to be so fucking confused fighting him. I'm going to look like Spongebob trying to drive playing for honor now.
Just 2 guardbreaks and a bash too do over 100 damage. Thats not broken

U had to be braindead if you let those GB connect with all of those slow ass basic attacks.
@@connorwilcox146 this hero will counter spamers i think
Biggest mistake for honor has made is giving a character basically a feat for his main move that instantly kills.
Oh god it has Kensei speed…
If Kensei was a grappler lol
How to use 95 DMG attack
Black prior can still flip that. Calm down guys💀
This character is gonna dominate the whole Game. Rank 1 1s char + rank 1 4s char. Bye bye Ocelotl and Vara
This has been said almost every new character since release lol

"oH nO HeS goNnA bE oP wHEn Hes OuT" stfu y'all 😂, so has every other hero whos come out since pirate
Im scaredddd 😢😢 i dont wanna get one shotted , this hero needs a nerf NOOOOWWWWW
Top stance defensive arm, Salem alaikum.

Sry , but the game will not benefit from this, compare to the normal hero’s, with every hero they go away
What does that even mean?
