PK or Gladiator

[Biishope ☯]

Actually For Honor take a lot of time to grind to have a good gear. I sadly don't have enough time to play both of them.
So I would like to learn and main one of them, the problem is that I love both. So I'm asking you guys, which one you think I should play and for what reasons, the which one is more fun up to you.

PK is hard to play and requires skill and knowledge about you enemy. Glad is just skilles cancer which need only 1 hand to play and win. Will you have more fun with playing Glad? If you are another casual or ez wins lover - TOTALLY YES! If you need some challenge and fair hard fights so your choice is PK.

Gladiator has a higher skill ceiling, and has more fun mixups. PK is basically just zone mixups / lights to interrupt startups or dodge into GB and it gets boring fast to play. Sure Glad has a really strong Zone and stamina punishment. But atleast on Glad it does not feel like you are cheating all together (perhaps except when using his Zone / Toe stab - or the insane range on his back dodge).

As I said, If you wanna cheap fighter with whom you can win 99% of games with no effort, Glad is your choice. But at some point you will be bored with him. PK needs brains to play. And you should read your opponent to win. More effort to win, but you can feel your sweet victory after, and can be proud of yourself :]

Not really, your just a PK main who has not realized how broken she is. Strange I dont see any reflex guard on PK - yet she takes skill to master? Lol.

And again, no PK main here. Yeah, I see, Glad is OK, Pk is broke.... Reflex guard? Hmmm.... yea why not just let your enemy free GB you. Nice. This "Reflex Guard" only good against LB, Conq, Warlord, HL. I would see how you use it against Glad for example, or against bers :]
You called PK broken all time long, but I can't see anything but "Her zone! So fclick WOW, So fast!!!". Mb sometheng else you can say?

Keep cool guys.
I just wanted to know some opinion about each heroes, which one is the more fun, which one gives you the more pleasure to play with. Don't wanted to start a battle. The game is how it is actually, some things, some attacks are broken for every heroes, no need to complain about that. I'm still glad theses " broken" way to attack are still here because there is too much turtles on this game, and it's a way to deblock fights.

Pal, the answer is clear as Baikal lake. Glad. YOu will get a lot of fun, because you will mostly win. Yeah it will take a few days to understand his strong/weak sides, moves and mixups, tricks and mindf*cks. But finally you will kick 90% of asses. (But mb there will be a lot of Glad vs Glad battles). He is most unbalanced and OP hero of the game for now. Even Cent not so strong. So, while Devs don't want nerf him. He is actual to play for you.

If I had the choice to either fight a PK or a Gladiator, I'd rather take the PK anyday of the week.

Gladiator as a whole is fine but the zone attack is what turns me off, it's absolutely 100% safe even on whiff. PK's zone I can at least block or parry (by sheer prediction) can't do that with glad, even if you sidestep or backdash it's still safe due to feint.

depends honestly, but i would go gladiator. decent pk = basic spam with some mixups

You want to say "Decent Glad" I suppose.

Peacekeeper definetely takes less skill to master than Gladiator.With Gladiator there are many things you can do,peacekeeper is fast lights+zone+maybe feints which you turn into lights and zone.Some peacekeepers I've met also use the deflect to show that they are not completely braindead,and i respect them for that,but still,gladiator has many more things you can do.
Sure,Gladiator could use a nerf,but saying that peacekeeper requires skill and knowledge and gladiator does not is just completely innacurate,I am sorry burrito.Both are really strong,but Gladiator actually gives you the option of not playing like a ♥♥♥♥.

It is not about less skill to master, it is about less tools to operate. You said right " fast lights+zone+maybe feints which you turn into lights and zone" or GB. But this is not mixups. Her lights fast but predictable as her zone. Everything above is just blockable. Light, zone, heavy, GB - ALL blockable. So if you playing against turtle or highskilled lvl, you need super master ultra skill and luck to win this fight. Plus she got terrible reach of her attacks. So you can only hit when enemy is near you face. Yea, use deflect just to show enemy you are "not stupid" and to "respect" not very smart you know...

You can't play not like a d*ck when you play with Glad... His lights are ultra fast, mostly because of late anmation. When PK start her attack, I see it coming beause she starts hit me (I meant I see animation of hit and detect from which direction it will come). Glad has only poke, I can't see animations until I already get hit, so I physically can't predict his hit. It is impossible to parry (okey mb 1 hit from 50) and the reach of his hit is insne. Plus Glad have tonn of mixups. He even just can spam you with light because they 95% unpunishable. He can light - toe stab, light - gb, light - back+heavy, cancel it in to another light, toe stab, gb, heavy - which can also be fiented in to light, GB, toe stab. And with not so fast fighters you should react to toe stab immediatly. But latency will not let you. Hit toe stab after light ridiculously fast. And nearly guaranteed hit. Glad has so many tools to operate, it is not right. He has everything. Good cancells, fast attacks, good stam, safe zone, stam drain, lot of unblockables, insane mixups. If you are tryhard with glad, the only one who could beat you is another tryhard Glad.

I said that PK needs knowlage and skills to beat enemies, and Glad did not, it is true, but if glad either got skills and knowladge he becames the war machine of death.

The last one thing. Comparing. PK and Glad. Both highskilled. Against turtle highskilled LB or Conq. WHo will win? The answer is not PK. Because her tools are weak, and her fast attacks/zone flickers have no value against pro LB, Conq. But Glad can easily provoke them to hit, or use zone, lights and toestab. He will win them even with this 3 hits.

I never have problems with gladiators and i play most of the time orochi or highlander lately, the zone attack hit you only if you get hitted by the punch on the start up just dodge it and block right he will not get you. He is preatty safe for his range but he has the worst reflex guard in the game along with shinobi (basically if you are a pk you will win just for the fact that his guard doesnt allow him to react and block all of her lights). Pk has the best recovery times, hit hard and is fast you have decent mixups and you will play mainly with faints. Gladiator is fast aswell and has a lot more range, mixups and can open much more thanks to his stuns,thats his main power but again his defense is a big weakness and his zone is not impossible to avoid (i think pk one is worst but whatever). Overall i think gladiator is more fun because he is a lot more versatile than pk which rely mainly on fast lights spam into zone and some faint game thats all.

Have no problen against Glad with Highlander? Oh boyyy.... What a lie. Or you just dont care if you loose with HL, that's why you have no problems with it?
"Overall i think gladiator is more fun because he is a lot more versatile than pk which rely mainly on fast lights spam into zone and some faint game thats all." Yea, glad rely on fast light spam zone and some fients too. But he either has toe stab, shield bash and tonn of stamina so you can spam fients all game long.
P.S. who cares about reflex guard? Cmon when you play with asassin, your mouse =/stick is always in action....

Did you press the buthurt button this morning pal? just giving some tips for the topic since you are fighting like spoiled childs on wich one of your hearoes has the longest ♥♥♥♥. And yes i have no problems with highlander against them cause they are just the new character that eveyone call op so eveyone just think they can run him while turning their brain off and light attack spam me so i ♥♥♥♥ them up with celtic curse mixups no problem. If they are parry gods is another thing but its the same thing as all the other assassins since highlander is broken agaisnt them but in no particular way against glad, and i still win most of times so.
