Is there some kind of master counter strike move in fist fight?

[Hochmeister]

Some guys in the second map, were able to counter my move especially if I try some combos. And no, they weren't in the perfect block option moment.

Am I missing something?

Yes, in the second map enemies can master strike you and they will do it often.

Just be careful when you fight enemies with any kind of sword or bare fists from now on and always kick the enemy in unarmed fights or they will constantly use an masterstrike there too.

easiest way to win fistfights is to just always get in grapple-range and clobber the opponent as soon as they break free, repeat.

I have a hard time reading opponents in hand to hand combat. It's hard to tell with which fist their going to strike you. So far, I've never been able to masterstrike them or not getting masterstriked in fist fights because I frankly don't know on what side they are focusing.

Masterstike is a Sword only attack...whatever issue your having it has nothing to do with master strike if your fist fighting

Then why were they able to counterattack me?

Just like enemies using masterstrikes in the first game it's a cheap way to give opponents a chance by slowly whittling you down if you're reckless.
I find the best way to beat people in fistfights is to dodge and then attack.

The only countermove it to try and read their posture.
There is a perk description that makes it clear that at some point you were supposed to be able to do unarmed masterstrikes yourself but they scrapped it.

Correction, the player can only master strike with swords. Enemies can also master strike while fist fighting, that is just an undisputable fact

We still don't know if master strike unarmed can be unlocked as a hidden perk.
