Do you Attack or Parry at the start of a fight?

Just curious what most people start out doing. I myself start out parrying first with being ready to evade if the opponent comes with a heavy attack. So do you risk getting combo'd at the start in exchange for getting the first combo? Or do you parry like i do?

    Maybe it's because I'm doing hard content but I think it's literally impossible to get the first hit if they start attacking lol

    I don't do either. I start the fight by letting myself get punched in the face. Thats the only way to give people any chance of beating me. :smiley:

    I always block/parry. It makes the block and parry bugs much more noticeable when your block doesn't work at the beginning of a fight.

    Parry seems to work well in Arenas and Quest and to some extent in AW and AQ.

    The game mechanic seems to make AI stands and follow by a heavy or dash against a certain class champs or whether boosts are in used.

    I notice my champ gets KOed faster when I use boost against AQ boss. It is like AI also receives a boost.

    Well, back to OP's poll, 90% of time it's block (which becomes Parry when Parry works).

    Look at it like this. If you parry you lose very little health and you able to get a full combo. And if you attack the possibilities of actually getting the combo is rare.

    You have to go to full site mode. Then go into your profile and select avatar. Switch out of mobile site.

    Tried to always attack when I started playing, but the CPU was always first, so I adapted. Now I always parry. Unless I start with unstoppable buff ofc, then I go ham.

    The poll should be between parry or evade.
