Longsword needs a buff

[Elias]

there is no cc counter for prouned longsword. If you dont get helo ls just gets eaten. I love the class and i love to play it but its so bad. I hope this season will be a change for that missery

I'm not sure what most of the stuff you wrote means, but I can confidently say that Longswords are pretty much the only class who can can survive solo on a contested point, so it can't be that bad. Besides, the shield charge is probably one of the best CC-abilities you can have in this game

[Ducky]

Nah.It's very strong.At the moment heavy armor classes that incluseds Longsword are very strong.In fact evryone plays this classes for good reason.

As a longsword, I think Longsword is fine for the most part. The only thing it needs, is an increase to its block. Otherwise it is perfect as is.

Longsword is very good at tanking, but playing this class for ...how ever long CB been out, would like them to also spicy it up and add more offense skills or options.

Maybe your stats are poorly allocated and you have bad armor?

My LS can live for ever against 2-3 heros just by running in circles, healing, charging. I can charge ANY UNIT and knock most of them down and escape.

I can heal my tower shields that take forever to kill and damage. I'll go through a whole push, not lose a unit and be at full health. After tanking the push.

I keep trying to switch to other classes, but they all feel weak.

They are weak.HIgh armor heroes are the best one.And LS got insane amount of HP +the healing just makes it unkillable.Yeah it's very op class at the moment.Best one id say.

Its block never worked for me. I'd be facing an enemy and their every basic attack staggered me out of it, unless I did a block attack first. Really annoying.

Are you sure you weren't just attacked from a different angle? You can block every basic attack, but there are some which are actually unblockable. Spear has one of those

This has to be a joke, LS is one of the easiest and most useful classes

[Elias]

its no joke ls needs a cc buff one first time you are prone with ls = you are ♥♥♥♥♥♥. I played ls since release and i think when it had at least 1! skill which could let you stand up again after cc would be enough to stay as a tank in fight.

[Elias]

and no its definitly not a Meta class in my eyes. i make wayyy better games with hammer

[Odzianna]

What a surprise, the Maul with CC-immunity on spin to win and the best damage type in the game gets more damage done and kills than the Longsword :D

Also Longsword has a skills that let you get back up on your feet: Counterattack, Martial Prowess and Sally Forth. Are you sure you played Longsword recently?

[Elias]

yes i do but it doenst work against all cc. and most cc makes u prone. If that happens u just lay there. I think one all CC recover skill should be there

It doesn't matter lol.Longsword is broken at the moment.Best S tier class. Maul/ longsword both are just very op now.

They need no buff but nerf if that's the case.

Bro I ain't near meta and no single hero can kill me them selves even with knockdowns, if you are then you are specing your character wrong. Make sure your either full armour or health no damage, your a tank not a dps.
