Bumpcouching with Heavy Lance

[Gurnisson]

Shouldn't be possible but happens a lot of the time. It's completely retarded and should be made impossible. True story bro

What is a bumpcouch? Couches already go through blocks as they are...

[Gurnisson]

They miss with the lance, but the bump makes the couch still happen if you turn your lance over to the other side. Basically, you couch them with your lance point having missed and passed the enemy.

[FRANK_THE_TANK]

Yeah its a horrible trick, its like slowing down as you come in and turning hard but not slowing down enough to kill the couch.

My favorite, which is more just fancy skill than anything is riding some one down with the lance couched then jumping into the air, ditching the couch and slapping them in the face with a 1h sword, oh the glory and the whorishness.

Look, i've been a lancer a LONG time. And this shit rarely happens to me, same with bumpstab with the lance.
When it happens, it happens by accident to me. Maybe there are some people who can do this on purpose, but are there really that many?

[Vexus]

In my opinion they should make using couch several times in the same map having complications on the actual lance.

Yes, I hate cavs that all they do in the whole round is couch couch couch.

I don't think bumping with couched lances is a problem. The ones that are a problem are those that use a melee weapon, bump the enemy, and then stab down through their horse chest and belly at the rider under the horse. Try that with a real horse

That makes more sense than bump-couching with a heavy lance and that says a lot.

Tell me, how can you one-hit someone with a couch when you bumped him first? The lance point is past the nose of the horse which means it's some kind of dumb glitch in the game, you couldn't possibly bump someone and couch him afterwards realistacally. Scenario: Coucher charging you, you avoid the lance but end up under the horse, he magically throws his lance to the other side, couching you with the shaft of the lance. You're now dead.

This crappy thing not only works with couched lance. Even a normal lancehit can hit/kill you after the bump, which is totally ridiculous :/

Bump means the horse hit you, means the tip of the lance has passed you already as the lance usually is further infront than the horses head or chest. Still people hit with their lance after they bumped someone...

The same way you can drag the first foot of the handle of a polearm across someones side and pierce them to death

Favourite is doing an overhead and then dragging it sideways into their feet.

[Cepeshi]

Just happened to me, i bumped a guy and then couched him, wtf

[Mr_Oujamaflip]

Minrange for lances!

[Wookimonsta]

maybe if we give back lancers their old turning rates and make them not made out of glass, cav will actually go back to fighting people instead of just sneak attacking everyone.

[Gisbert_of_Thuringia]

Doesn't have to do with sneakattacking Wookie. Cav always sneakattacked and always will do
