is PRONE not CC?

[ScypeR]

I have 4 ways to remove CC, however letting launched at by a greatsword from 2x my attack range and INSTANTLY be prone on the floor with 0.1 reaction time in a game where servers are so inconsistent there's no way to block/parry.

While prone ur unable to use ur skills and items, making prone a death sentence. Why can't you remove this CC? it lasts for ages and is BETTER than sleep, stun, root, disarm and silence, COMBINED. I've never not died. I'm at 3K score it feels like there's NOTHING I can do, I see a greatsword I just can't be arsed. There's no counterplay, you just have to get lucky on a block prediction and after that they got 9302 more ccs they can throw at you, with cooldowns being under a 3rd of what my remove cc options are.

I would love an explanation as to how to not always die to 20 meter charge followed by instaprone. CC resist food makes 0 impact.

prone is speacial like shock and you cant just use it instantly. For prone you need to bind or stund somebody to activate so you can already predict easily.

The option how GS can prone you is after stunning blow(stun/shock), devastating smash(stun/shock) or specced spreccision dash with(bind).
If its a dagger/gs they got a extra blink()bind+silence and 2 skill to prone you(maybe got other option to im not realy chek it on dgger).
If its a sword/gs chain hook(bind), strategic rush(stun if you get pushed to a wall or object) and firce crash(if you get head butted to a wall or object) make extra options.

For resist you need to understand the formulas its got nice explanations on YT.
But most of user just use it the stun after charged on you or the charge/blink bind you and then prone you.
GS/Dagger users blink is more deadly because blink got bind with silence chance so that one need to predicted if they come in range they try to jump on you.

Q skills work well but its still need some prediction or know the enemy skill rotation for combos.

Just want to add, because the first statement in untrue for one specific scenario afaik :
S&S Fierce Crash with specialization Desperate Clash changes the Push effect to Prone on the main target. In this specific case, it is an instant application.

With this spec, you don't need an obstacle to apply a CC and Desperate Clash now synergizes with Guillotine Blade due to applying Prone and both skills having nearly the same cooldown.
