Nudge kick

[SugarHoe]

So, on the duel server there used to be a thing where if you nudge people, and get a free hit or nudge them the ground you could kick them. Should be put back for 1h people getting S keyd the shit out of and for 1 h knockdown bundle of sticksry

Bring it back

Nudge is good now, now fix kick invisible hitboxes. Kind of sad that nudge became a mostly defensive maneuver now and kick is the more offensive.

Because running up and knocking down back-pedalers with nudge is defensive

[San]

I was thinking of the really good defensive shield and polearm nudges but yeah that can happen, that and nudging for teammates.

The nudge kick combo was extremely overpowered. Anyone with the competence to hit v and e in a rapid succession would be able to immediately get a free hit on their opponent. It could be used defensively, offensively, however. It broke rank duels for a while- several people used the combo repeatedly in order to get in positions they didn't deserve. It wasn't just duels it was abused on, siege and battle suffered greatly from the abuse. People who normally were skilled on their own and found the meta proceeded to skyrocket to the top of the scoreboards, decimating all those who were unlucky enough to get within the reach of the nudge. It's stupid, leave it out.

youre just mad because you couldn't spam left attack with a long sword on the ground with knockdown

[ShiftKnife]

you're just mad you can't block right

[Zlisch_The_Butcher]

You're both mad you're not stylish enough to go horsethrowing with me.

[MURDERTRON]

Just change the kick to a roundhouse instead of a front kick.  Problem solved.

[San]

^I would prefer at least that to what we have now. Would actually see whether I'm dodging it right.

[SugarHoe]

you're just mad you can't block right

youre right

WAT

[San]

Kick grants a free hit, nudge does not. Defense nudge with shield and polearm works great for facehuggers. It's easy to sandwich a foe between you and another enemy (if an obstacle's nearby) and try to kick him to get an extra hit for yourself. Nudge in a group fight is typically for stopping his attack and allow for a teammate to get a hit in.

Not sure where the disconnect is.

Hate kick, pls fix.
