This passive is great. But then, your Black Knight can also square off against martial weapons (swords/axes/spears) coming at them from behind. It leaves them with no particular blind spot, while gaining a high likeliness of invulnerability and triggering their fear/hit passives.

Just going to suggest that back-attacks should bypass potential stalemates, if not severely cripple the chances.

If it does this, then Riposte should do the same.

I agree, but I ran out of innuendos and puns to squelch together.

If you're spending the momentum to go around them (or otherwise have an ability to get to their back) I'd say it's fairly reasonable to have that give the bonus of being able to ignore Stalemate or reduce the odds of it occuring.

This sounds like a pretty nice idea. I'm all for it.

I'd like to see this work against certain 'defensive' techniques.

Riposte, Stalemate... Hell, maybe you could even have Wraithguard return to it's 50% coverage in the front, 33% on the sides, and 10-25% on the back. It'd be nice to see location matter.


Re: Stale-mating from behind - Slydria - 04-23-2015

This sounds fair to me.


Re: Stale-mating from behind - Chaos - 04-23-2015

I can agree to nerfing Stalemate with this.


Re: Stale-mating from behind - Ryu-Kazuki - 04-23-2015

I concur with the OP.


Re: Stale-mating from behind - Tamaki-Kun - 04-24-2015

It makes sense, i agree.
