For Wardens, gamers can use a two-button attack that uses the light attack and heavy attack buttons. This strategy can be used in combination with other attacks, or on its own. For Vikings, a similar attack comes in the form of using a guard break together with a light attack and a heavy attack.

"For Honor" gamers who will use Samurais to play, begin with a backward dash and then press down on the heavy attack button. Following the dash strike, immediately perform a light top attack twice, that makes one of your best combos to defeat enemies. Check out the video below to see these attacks in action. "For Honor" lands on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC on February 14.
