Finally getting around to watching the video and OH MY GOD countering makes so much more sense when explained fully.
I didn't realise the enemies attack needed to hit within a specific time window of the animation (indicated by the yellow bars), so I just didn't understand why my counters weren't working most of the time.
Really appreciate your help and directions!
Futurama did it better.
Hope you enjoy the world turning to a dust bowl, I guess?
Do you slice before freezing?
See I'm afraid of the fridge as my starters always seem to develop a kind of acetone-y smell once in the fridge - that no matter how long I feed for out of the fridge, just won't go away.
I'm not at home enough to bake that often - at best I could maybe do twice across a weekend and maybe pizza dough once a week.

You should edit your post; you're spreading disinformation.
I usually go with Mr. Fuk Yu. Born yesterday if I can get away with it.
They look really good!
Please could we have your recipe?
So I've had a couple of days now. Really loving the Knight with the one handed spear and medium shield. So much more effective - nice distance and the speed allows much easier interrupts.
This evening I rebound my keys slightly (after already rebinding alt attacks onto mouse buttons) - so that now my block is on shift, slash/alt are left/right mouse, stab/alt are top and bottom side mouse buttons, and overhead/alt are scroll up and down. Really feels more comfortable to vary attack patterns - only trouble is Left little finger fatigue from tapping shift a lot lol.
Thanks for your help - I'm already managing to 1:1 or even positive K:Ds.
What I'm not quite sure of still is how to score better - obviously PTFO but I still rank middle or bottom third of the team list and I'm not really sure how to score better aside from staying alive more.
And finally - countering is really tricky it seems in multiplayer matches. It's hard enough reading an individual opponent's moves, but with two or more coming at me I just have to pray. Have occasionally managed to survive a multi-person onslaught a few times now though, and even managed a multi kill from one which was very satisfying.
So I had a good look at Stridah and Soter Dave's stuff. They make countering look so easy!
I think I understand the theory a lot better now - it's funny, I went and re-did the tutorial and it's mostly all in there too but it just doesn't make a lot of sense how it helps until you've actually got used to the game.
Now I just need to practice and learn to not panic...
Excellent, thank you! I'll take a look.
I think you took that a little too seriously.
