It depends. People who parry lights are either good, or just parry hungry.
If they are parry-hungry and low level, you can feint a heavy and parry their failed parry, which is now a regular heavy. If they are mid to high level, you can immediately GB after feinting your heavy, because most people would know to feint their own heavy as soon as they see they're baited.
If they're good ... you'll have to vary your own attacks to catch them off guard, which is a little difficult as Warlord's kit is rather limited.

as warlord you dont even attack except headbutt-m1. pro wl are so turtly you can make soup with them

Simplest tip I can give if someone if parrying all of your lights is just to start throwing heavy attacks - as if they're expecting a light they'll parry early and then they will get hit by your heavy instead, do this a few times and they'll stop parrying every light you throw out as they will be wary of it being a heavy instead

Another tip is as other people said - start feinting heavy attacks into various different things, so for warlord specifically you can feint into a headbutt (which is a decently strong thing to feint into) or a light/heavy - even a zone could work if you've got the stamina and don't mind risking it

TLDR: Try to be less predictable in what you throw out, mix it up so that they dont want to risk parrying every light ^^

Best of luck out there ;)

LIGHT - HEAVY/FEINT - HEADBUTT - REPEAT

Its not a soft feint, its a hard feint and then headbutt - but its normally fast enough to catch people off guard unless they're expecting it :)

Throw a side light in spaced intervals , boom,1,2, boom 1,2,3 boom , headbut stab, light heavy fient gb side heavy punish. Use this in close close range hes needs to be able to smell your breathe, the better the opponent the more you'll have to rely on headbutt and heavy fients into gbs , also use your leaping attack while out of range, lock on mid air miss the attack land the head butt stab, it can also be done to trade but timing is key and if your fighting a turtle they just gonna stand there and react.

Hopefully this was helpful
