This is incorrect – you’ve never been able to parry cheapshot.

Cheap Shot cannot be parried or dodged

Dude, I could name you 30 games off the top of my head in S1/2/4 of BFA where I’ve parried them until it was a shadowstep cheap. This has never been a thing until SL. Cheap & Kidney have very distinct sound differences and you learn them very quickly when you parry their stuns.

Then again, maybe I’m just delusional and every sub rogue has pressed cheap shot in BFA just chose to miss it ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

And Revo it’s just a coincidence this guy rando dance cheaps there when he has 5 point kidney instead of just step kidneying healer w/ a hex from rsham. It’s weird, but it’s still insane.

You are 100% delusional, it has never been avoidable.

Crazy delusional I guess. I mean I have 2 other monks that have seen this same thing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

No you can’t, you’re lying. Cheapshot has never been parryable. That is how the ability has always been designed.

Yes, you are

The ability has never changed:

You popped every single CD why would he not dance cheapshot you there :face_with_raised_eyebrow: … any good sub rogue is not going to kidney the kill target like 99% of the time lol. If you had saved your sweep for your CDs or just offensively disarmed the rogue when you popped you wouldn’t get cheap shotted on all your cds :man_shrugging: … I just think of ALL the things rn that are OP, cheap shot is certainly not one of them lol

I was checking to see if I actually had any vods from BFA but I guess I deleted them when I transferred from old computer to new one.

Anyways, Gzy would even back me up that the whole game plan vs RMP back in BFA to survive RMPala was down to 3 scripts “Pre port. Pre Sac. Or pre fist” and the games always came down to can I pre fist the kidney and then immediately turn to stop the shadowstep cheap.

Want to know how many games that I got cheaped when I got the prefist? 0. Perhaps again, I’m delusional and every BFA rogue is just bad and I found some secret hidden OP technique that made them miss cheap shot though, but hey, what do I know.

As for why not dance cheap there? the better play is to get the go rolling. They don’t need cheap to win if the rsham is just pressing hex like he’s been spamming all game while he gets the ball rolling. If I’m hexed there’s 0 influence from me on a CDless Hpal = game.

Edit: Also, maybe I’m just extra delusional. perhaps I parried 3 kidneys in a row on 1 fists in BFA! Oh wait…

Oh I forgot the most important part of all this! Rezuz has parried cheap shots on stream before.
Anyways, delusional as I said. I must know some super secret exploit that I forgot ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Buddy take the L, we’ve brought out the WoWHead links it’s over.

Hey guys, remember that time where the one delusional WW monk tried to make up claims that are impossible? Good times!

BfA rogues were playing assa. You do not have nor did you ever have vods. Assa rogues only have cheapshots after vanishing/melding. You never were getting cheapshotted. You’re just making things up.

Sub rogues have always just used dance to cheapshot targets that have any parry/evasion/etc. since the beginning of time.

Ok link it, show some evidence. You absolutely cannot parry cheapshot lol and never have been able to.

Wait I could provide you a video rn of s1 bfa of sub rogues.

Like, right now. I have the link because I was bored.

S2 was the SHIFT towards Mutilate with the few exceptions of people like stungod who refused to not play sub.

I also can’t link Rezuz stream, he doesn’t hold vods lmao, not evne a 30 second search can tell you that.

And even crazier? I still can hear Inviable screaming like a schoolgirl about blade dancing a kidney & cheap shot on the exact same dance in BFAs4. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

So unless DH is just drastically different than fists parry about parrying…
oh wait

I think we were asking for a link on a cheap shot parry.

Ok then link it

Then link it man

Ok man so you have no evidence

No you could never blade dance cheapshots man, sub rogues always destroyed DH’s because they’re guaranteed to stun them - literally played thug all of BfA and any DH just got destroyed because you can’t avoid cheap shot

Kidney shot absolutely avoidable, stop mentioning that

Cheap shot is the only one where the spell has ALWAYS been designed to be unavoidable from dodges/parries/etc. lol

Link the clip man, you keep claiming you have some evidence so prove it

You mean this video right here. Not even 5 seconds in you see a sub rogue? Now don’t use this game as a ‘parry cheap shot’ game, I never claimed this was it.

And where do I keep claiming that I have evidence. My evidence is eye witness from 8+ people that I queued with in BFA who’ve seen it and reacted to it. Gzy, Volkazar, Lockthelock, Novoz, Inviable, Tygasoraw, Aquafina, Ramy. But hey, I’ve already mentioned that once again I could be delusional and just found an exploit without knowing that it was an exploit for a whole expac!

Or that every sub rogue was just god awful and didn’t press the second most fundamental ability in their kit?

After all, I’m the first person to admit I’m wrong WHEN I’m wrong, but when I can give you all these people who’ve seen it done, and you’ve yet to show me any to counteract those said people being there for it and seeing the global per global situation, ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Oh forgot to mention. I pay attention to animations, it’s how I play.
Cheap shot is a unique animation. When he has no kidney yet the animation is going off into a fists and it’s NOT stunning me… Idk chief. Maybe go play more thug.

Just stop talking you are delusional and embarrassing yourself, cheap shot has always been the same every expac.

I see, I misread it and thought you were saying you had a link about parrying cheap shots

There were sub rogues in BfA season 1 you’re not wrong especially at the start, but the majority of BfA was assa rogues so most of my initial implication was that you likely were just fighting assa rogues and parried a kidney. I have no issue admitting I misread though.

Incredible

I entirely doubt you ever parried a cheapshot with them man, go ask a rogue if they’ve ever been parried on a cheapshot

Yeah I mean as thug you’d never do anything but cheap shot a DH or WW and you’d never have to wait for blade dances or fists, we’d cheap shot stun them all the time, something sub rogues have been doing to FoF ever since it became a parry anyways.

Cheapshot has never changed. It’s never been avoidable via dodge or parry. I even have evidence linking the ability from classic, linking it’s current iteration, linking the changelogs of the ability. It has always been like this.

Also go ahead, get any of them to vouch for you if you want.
