FOR HONOR: Warlord Guide



The Warlord is the Vikings faction’s Heavy character. It’s classified as a Medium difficulty hero that’s slow and strong, excelling in counter attacks, harassment, and sustaining damage. The Warlord uses counter attacks and guard breaks to make up for its short attack range.

Basic Tips

üThe Warlord has 2 Attack Chains: Focused Strikes is performed by combining a Light Attack into a Heavy Attack.
üThe Hack and Slash Attack Chain is performed by using a Heavy Attack followed by a Light Attack. Be sure to mix up your guard directions between strikes to confuse your opponent.
üWhen surrounded by enemies, press Light Attack and Heavy Attack simultaneously to perform a Zone Attack.
üWhile Sprinting, perform a Heavy Attack to initiate a Headsplitter Leap.
üYou can also perform a Headsplitter Leap while locked onto an enemy by performing a Forward Dodge combined with a Heavy Attack.
üHold Guard Direction Down to enter Full Block Stance and automatically Block all incoming Attacks. Blocked Attacks bounce back when in this stance, but it also consumes your Stamina.
üIn Full Block Stance, perform a Heavy Attack to initiate a Board and Blade swipe.
üFrom Full Block Stance, rapidly press Guardbreak to perform an unblockable Headbutt.

Advanced Tips

üTiming your Light Attacks correctly allows you to Block and Counter incoming enemy Attacks.
üTime your Heavy Attacks correctly to trade blows with an enemy, rendering your Heavy Attacks uninterruptable.
üBe sure to utilize The Warlord’s ability to quickly enter and exit Full Block Stance to react to overly aggressive opponents. While in Full Block Stance, follow up a Block immediately with a Light Attack for a guaranteed counter Stab.
üPerform a Guardbreak after a Headspliter Leap to execute a followup Headbutt. Then follow that Headbutt with a quick Light Attack for a guaranteed counter stab.
üAfter a successful parry, quickly perform a Guardbreak to execute an enemy stunning Shield Counter. Follow that up immediately with a Light Attack for a guaranteed stab.

Fortnite: Challenges Are About To Get Much More Manageable

For Season 4 Battle Pass owners, Tuesdays are an exciting day in Fortnite. A new set of weekly challenges is released, and although you have the full season to complete them, players are eager to get them done and earn new rewards. That process is about to become a more pleasant one, thanks to one of several new quality-of-life changes coming soon. Epic Games has outlined many of the new features and changes that are slated for update 4.3 and beyond. One thing that is coming in 4.3 is challenge progress notifications. As you accomplish your objectives, a message will pop up during matches to let you know where you stand toward finishing a given challenge. Currently, you can only check on how you're doing with challenges in between matches from the main menu. You can also take mental notes (or physical ones, if you really want to get wild), but that becomes difficult when a bunch of challenges pile up. Was I supposed to get Eliminations in Tomato Tow...

Fortnite: New Close Encounters Mode Is Now Live After Being Disabled

Fortnite's latest limited-time mode has been temporarily postponed. Shortly after the Close Encounters event began, Epic Games announced on Twitter that an issue had been discovered and the mode was being disabled across all platforms--PS4, Xbox One, PC, and iOS--while the developer investigated it.  Close Encounters was slated to be the second new limited-time mode in Fortnite: Battle Royale this week, following on the heels of Solid Gold v2, which began with the release of the 4.2 content update. In contrast to Solid Gold, Close Encounters mode focuses on "close quarters combat" and only features shotguns and the newly added jetpacks. Epic hasn't provided any further details on the unspecified issue it discovered in Close Encounters, only noting that the mode has been taken out of the rotation while it works to address the problem. Likewise, the developer didn't announce a time frame for when Close Encounters will return in the game. In the meantime, ...
