except - people DO block on siege damnit.
I know, I was just being facetious. More of the impatient players tend to play on siege, though, since they don't have to wait for an entire round to be over to play. Historically this meant that the general amount of bad players on siege was much higher, but these days it's not as noticeably different.
I would hardly call that a teamwound, when it glances(not even a clean hit) in my teammate's face due to terrain elevation screwing up my swing.
Like I said, people see what they want to see.
Also, that was not a hold thrust lol, it was recorded on the second day after turn speed limit for overhead and thrust hit EU, I had respecced the day before and was struggling with the 1h thrust.
You chambered your attack and pulled it back, aiming down and turning right, then before you released it you started turning back towards the guy. It wasn't an instant release, and that is called a hold, even if it's a short one.
And I was running behind my team because I had 50% hp left after the crossbow shot and the rus bow hit, usually I'm in the front sneaking in overheads with nice and thin 1h animations.
I don't doubt that two and a half minutes of footage isn't a complete representation of how you play, I was just making the point that from the videos, the conclusions to be made
in a general sense are very limited. Just like merely looking at one short video doesn't give people the credence to say things like "NA can't block!"
