Personally, I really like the uppercut execution, because it’s the only execution where the hero explicitly wants his enemy to live. He even says “This fight isn’t over,” he wants his enemy to survive so they can battle again.
@@olakpasa6486 that’s one of the reasons why I love centurion and he’s my favorite character in the game. Other than gladiator he seems like the only hero that fights simply because he loves fighting.
I understand lowering efficiency for when other characters throw their weapons, but Centurion without his gladius still has his main weapons attached to his wrists
Which begs the question; would an armoured fist count as a weapon and a small shield? Neither is more efficient but that doesn’t mean they aren’t decent alternatives as a last resort.
Fun fact about ides of March. It was seen as honorable to kill a enemy by plunging your weapon down behind the left shoulder blade, as it was a insta kill because you are destroying the spine and heart.
I can't help but feel that Centurion is purposely being flashy and inefficient. His inefficiency would be him taking it slow to show off rather than not killing and I think that's the point. He ear piercingly loud and very flashy to the point that he's trying to draw the enemies towards him rather than his allies. In "It takes guts", he says a line that was something like "You won't hurt my friends/allies ever again" and it just felt really personal. He is a proud warrior and he refuses to see his troops and allies die so he draws the attention to himself to give a chance to his allies either to escape or focus on enemies that they can handle.
A large part of roman culture was not to leave anyone behind so they would likely not retreat while leaving him behind despite him wanting to make a sacrafice
He is one of my favorite characters when it comes to looking like an Ancient Roman. Makes me feel like I’m playing as Maximus Decimus Meridius, aka Russel Crowe’s character from Gladiator
16:10 I think this is a perfect example for why better gore should be implemented, I don't believe this should have taken off the head, but imagine this, it nearly does. Here's what I mean, the back-hand going into the first slash cuts out a decent chunk of the neck, blood flies with it pouring down his chest, while the second cut goes the rest of the way about 60-70%, the punch breaks what little bone is keeping the head in place, and the head is dislocated still attached by some sinew as the body falls to the ground. The only reason why I'm still around for the For Honor content is because of the executions in the game, especially Warmonger's most recent one. I would totally get back into the game if they overhauled the gore mechanics, as some say in Warhammer, "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!!!" Besides my complaints with how the game generally is, your videos are great, and I look forward to quite a few other series you got, also, "Centuri-bear" is badass, could be better with a Scutum, but I guess that'll make him too similar to BP...
I always thought Cent fought in a manner I would expect of a gladiator, like how he's always shouting out about how magnificent he is, how weak his opponent is, and generally being a big showman, even more than the actual Gladiator hero.
For Brutal Beating, I agree with the 2 in lethality for many of the reasons that you said. A cut across the gut (the way Cent actually does this is about as good as you’re going to get from a reverse grip) would very likely not be lethal especially for a thrusting weapon like a gladius. The only chance here where the Warden dies is actually the stab to his foot where Cent could have cut his Medial artery and he dies to blood loss (yes, there are major arteries even in your feet). As for the efficiency: Cent is trying to stab his neck. Veni Vidi Vici comes in with a similar strike. By the way, Veni Vidi Vici actually allows you to move before he falls down, Cent doesn’t just wait there if used in game. For knock your block off, you got the grade right for realism but for the wrong reason. You absolutely can cut through a neck with two slashes of a gladius. However, your target has to be locked in place and not moving. Warden acts like his body instantly got rigor Mortis the moment Cent touched him, that first punch should have knocked him over if not the first slash. Espana Abrachium should have a 1 in realism. If you pierced through the spinal column, it is indeed possible to rip the blade out through the side the way Cent does here. (There’s nothing but soft tissue and muscle from that low on the body) It would REALLY Jack up your sword, but technically possible. Cutting the arm off in the process though… Ala lacta est’s 2 pommel strikes followed up with a kick is a reference to the cutscene combo. GB, 2 light pummels, throw is the most classic opener for it. I know it’s probably a little annoying to see nitpicking in the comments, but I can’t help but throw my two cents in when I myself dabble in swordplay and use some of these from time to time. Nonetheless, another fantastic addition to a great series my man!
I'm pretty sure the Pollice Verso execution is a reference to the end of Gladiatorial Matches, where Roman emperors would use a thumbs up / down motion to gesture whether or not a gladiator would be killed in the arena.
Its always an amazimg thing how resistant and vulnerable the human body is but what wonders me most, how little people think of the resistance our bodies can put up. It really takes a good attack to our vitals to put us out immediately or quite a many lacerations that are irecoverable. But well lets hope education with Raven will do its job.
I was hoping for cent to have more high scoring but it is what it is Also I hope you continue this series I find it very entertaining and I like learning about how they'd kill or how it wouldn't kill
Raven, for the Glorious execution, I would give realism a 2 is because of the stab/thrust into the chest, but that would be the only reason it would be a 2
in that moment in veni vidi vici where cent is standing there while warden falls you can actually move around. obviously wouldn’t change the score but it’s cool
The thing about Veni Vidi Vici, is after he lands, after a second you are free to move and do whatever while the warden is still stumbling, he does NOT stand around absentmindedly. The only reason he does it here is because its an execution preview, and not actual gameplay, so there's no controlling him, nowhere for him to go. In an actual battle, your side of the execution would be done and you can fight before he falls to the ground.
Considering what Centurions are in lore, the lowest Cool factor he'll have is 3. He's a inspiration to troops, he is proud, loud, and *very* flashy. Though he isn't the most efficient Edit: Overall I think I agree with your score, though maybe he should be a little bit higher. Its weird, on a individual level I feel I agree with you and your scores, but when taking it as a whole I feel Centurion has a 80-85, probably bias because he was my third hero though and arguably the one who's playstyle truly clicked first with me (plus funny punches).
The veni vidi vici execution in game lets you move around immediately after stabbing he just stands around in the menu just to show the enemy animation of falling
Someone used an execution on me where centurion lifts up his opponent and slams them on the ground before stepping on them and posing with his hands on his hips. I’ve never seen it before and can’t find it anywhere. Is it a mod or some kind of exclusive?
Honestly I predicted a fair score on Centurion. He doesn't really have much bad executions, with the either being amazingly flashy or incredibly efficient. Definitely one of my favorite heroes, wish his score was higher but I agreed with most if not all scorings. Thanks for the Video Raven
In that veni vidi vici execution, the centurion standing still is a symptom of the preview. In actual gameplay, after he touches the ground with both feet, you're free to run around and fight other enemies as the opponent falls dead.
I think we also gotta remember that the speed of execution is related to how much health you got. So longer equals more health shorter is less obviously so devs mightve purposely added some flashy stuff to make them longer
I'm so glad kneel before me got a perfect score. Easily my favorite centurion execution, without fail has me going "Knee! Knee! THROAT!!!" And then onto the next target
Raven Knight is the For Honor CZcamsr not many know of, but those who do love him! I don't think I've seen anyone ever say anything bad about him other than "who's that?"
My cents rep 62 an I always stop playing a character when I’m at 70 and I’m honestly kinda sad to see him go, put up on the pedestal with Warden, Conq, and LB.
gladii are actually great cutting weapons, the legions just used them for thrusting because it was better for safety of the soldiers and was more efficient in the formations.
I feel like the slice up in brutal beating goes across the chest and through the side of the neck not the face. Also in "knock your block off" not only are there accounts of Romans dismembering their enemy's but believe the punch to the weakend barely heald on head is what actually separated it. Tbh.
In vidi vini vici (I believe is its name) when centurion stands there you can actually move when you have this execution in game. The enemy stays in the animation while you are able to freely move and fight after the end of centurions running. I'm pretty sure this is the only execution in the game to let you move before the execution animation for the enemy is finished which easily makes it the most efficient in the game. You gave it a 4/4 still and rightfully so but I figured there was a misconception because the game isn't very apparent of this mechanic unless you own this execution.
Lawbringer has one like that as well, “Oh, come on”. It’s the one where he goes to do a big swing, but they fall over before he can do it and he gets mad. You can skip just about half of the actual animation
I’ll say for the Ala Lacta Este (I think I spelled that correct) I’d give Realism a 1 solely for what you mentioned earlier about the tension problems with the other arm-severing executions. Aka Lacta Este doesn’t have the same problem because Warden isn’t limply holding out his arm, he’s actually swinging it pretty hard towards Centurion, meaning that it would’ve probably been easier to cut into the arm and more likely to completely sever it. I say a 1 because it still doesn’t excuse the glancing blow, but that was something I noticed. Love your vids. Also, I personally give Spina ad Brachium a 4 for cool factor cause it was the first execution I ever saw that made me out loud say “Jesus Christ,” and I found that really funny cause it’s so over the top ridiculous.
See the problem i have with the roman uppercut is it takes so much force to actually lift an opponent off the ground from an uppercut that its impossible for humans to actually do. Centurion being able to do that means that that uppercut probably smashed wardens jaw which could lead to a bleed out
The Man, the Myth, the INCREDIBILIS! I have to disagree with the takes on Brutal Beating and Fortiter et Recte, specifically about what their finisher moves are. At the end of those executions, to me it seems pretty obvious that Centurion is slashing the throat, not the chest and face, like you said in the review. And I think you are underselling the slashing/chopping capabilities of the gladius somewhat. Yes it is primarily a thrusting weapon, but it has some heft to it and can chop relatively decently. Other than those, very fair and honest grading, the result is satisfactory.
For Brutal Beating: The slash upward starts from the lower pectoral, up the chest, into the neck, and then threw the chin. There is no verifiable way to know how deep it is, and thus I cannot consider it as fully lethal. The direction of his strike demonstrates this. I'm honestly not sure how you think it was a neck slash, as it's clear Centurion is doing a very long verticle swing. Nothing resembling a neck slash, and we see Warden's head rock back from the impact, meaning the blow was verticle. Same goes for Fortiter et Rectes. If you think it was a neck lash, very well. But it's a very poor looking one. Bare in mind I own a gladius. I have tested its chopping capabilities. It can certainly chop well if the object is on a flat surface or is properly tensed. I think many people underestimate the density and strength of human bone.
I like the kneel before me execution because it shows Centurion’s skill with the gladius. I’m glad it’s actually one of his default executions. I think Raven forgot to notice that Centurion was using the sword reverse grip in “Kneel before me” which is one of his pet peeves with when people use a sword in a reverse grip. Another execution I like from Centurion is Veni Vide Vici because it is a reference to the first fight scene in Troy where Achilles killed the Thessalonian Champion Boagrius with little to no effort.
I did notice the reverse grip, but it didn’t bother me as much in Kneel Before Me because none of those strikes were lethal or meant to be. They were meant to make superficial cuts to bring the target down. I only get mad when a reverse grip is used to do significant damage or death, as reverse grips lessen the amount of force that can be applied.
9:18 This is the one I have a disagreement with Because at 9:26 you make a good point it is unrealistic, but I think that’s the point, because I don’t think most people wouldn’t be thinking straight if they were bleeding out from their gut and repeatedly punch in the face with their own fist But then again this list is SUBJECTIVE So I RESPECT YOUR OPINION AND LIKE THIS VIDEO
Well if you wanna help me pay for a better mic set up, I do have a patreon and a teespring store. That way I can afford a better sound system than the one I have.
For the end of Vini vidi vici when he’s standing there u can move in game right after u Stab him and move on it’s super fast and gives back good health
For aspana a brakia I'm pretty sure that's just slightly below the ribcage and against the side of the spine were he pulles not in it, sow that chances things a little. Before you say no a medieval belt is worn on the natural waste which is just on top of the hips and he plunches the blade in just above that it might contect the lowest ribs, but I doesn't have to break them to get past them. He doesn't have to go true bone to pull it out and if the blade is really sharp I think you might be able to pull it out like this. Again might I would give this a 2 at best aswell cause I'm not compleetly sure either. My beef is with the arm coming of that's not happing, especily not if you rip it true a guy, sow that makes it a 1. I would argue with your cool factor though it's sow f*cking savages I love it, I don't let that effect my judgment though. Apart from that one everything is solide and I agree with you.
@@RavenKnightYT well one of the executions u said was too “gladiator like” or u said it looked like something gladiator would do so i just wanted to point that out

Really ?
@@raul88.88 Yep
Centurion is the absolute GOAT. By far my favourite, his gameplay is just... *Chefs Kiss*

I always thought Cent fought in a manner I would expect of a gladiator, like how he's always shouting out about how magnificent he is, how weak his opponent is, and generally being a big showman, even more than the actual Gladiator hero.
I COMPLETELY forgot that Centurion was classified as a Hybrid in this game. I SWEAR I thought he was a Heavy or Vanguard-class character!

The gladiolus was used to primarily stab but its not a terrible cutter. Cutting limbs off is hard for any sword especially one handed ones

Been waiting a while for this one
The second and third execution Efficiency Scores aside this was a fair grading
Great video as always!
Best character. Amazing executions. Curious to see what you grade them.

hey! i really enjoy this. thank you
*INCREDIBILLIS INTENSIFIES*
This was a very fair score I'd say. Centurion is very lethal and cool.
The “Ala iacta est” execution is efficient in game thanks to it giving 50 health on arm cutoff
I’ve been waiting for centurion and was like this is going to be a 4 and this one is more of a one so I had fun watching this
The thing about Veni Vidi Vici, is after he lands, after a second you are free to move and do whatever while the warden is still stumbling, he does NOT stand around absentmindedly. The only reason he does it here is because its an execution preview, and not actual gameplay, so there's no controlling him, nowhere for him to go.

Great video.
Once again, Hitokiri still comes out on top with the best grade
She is an Executioner
Yeah I was expecting that score as well. Wonder if this would be altered if he had a Scutum.
Can't wait for you to get to Highlander, my absolute favorite hero in the game.
In the "veni vini vincy" ex (Probably wrongly said) cent only stays put in the menu, in game you can move as soon as he stops
As a cent main, I love this vid. Good job :)
His realism and efficiency scores bouta be buttcheeks
Considering what Centurions are in lore, the lowest Cool factor he'll have is 3. He's a inspiration to troops, he is proud, loud, and *very* flashy.

I thought the it takes guts was a nod to Negan's line and execution in The Walking Dead. He does the exact same thing and says that as well.
23:11 a reverse grip that gets a pass for Raven, never thought id see the day
The reason I like the veni vidi vici execution is because you can move after the jumping stab
Hey this was pretty good!
4:28 is how commodus stabs maximus before their fight really cool
In that veni vidi vici execution, the centurion standing still is a symptom of the preview. In actual gameplay, after he touches the ground with both feet, you're free to run around and fight other enemies as the opponent falls dead.
My favourites:
1. The Ides of March
2. Stay Down
3. Kneel before me
4. Veni Vidi Vici
The one where he jumps you can run away as soon as you land you don't have to stand and wait for it so I think efficiency should be higher
All scores should be 100% for it is demanded by the Emporer.
But in all seriousness good video look forward to the next one.
I just want to say at 13:30 you can move again when Cent lands on the ground you're not just standing there until the body falls over unable to move
I think we also gotta remember that the speed of execution is related to how much health you got. So longer equals more health shorter is less obviously so devs mightve purposely added some flashy stuff to make them longer
I have no doubt of that. That said, if judging this from a realistic battlefield perspective, I have to take length of time into account.
Great video! I was just wondering. is the gladius a thrusting weapon?
For veni vidi vici you can start walking and attack in game when the opponent is falling
Yes finally
I'm so glad kneel before me got a perfect score. Easily my favorite centurion execution, without fail has me going "Knee! Knee! THROAT!!!" And then onto the next target
in roman uppercut he punches with his off hand so he didn't even need to discard his weapon
Yes

If raven gets all the hero exclusive done will he do the universal executions.
I would like to add uppercuts in particular are much more deadly than other forms of blunt force to the head, so personally I’d have gone with a 2
This was a fair score.
Wait a minute; I feel like I've seen this video before, but I obviously haven't until now. Is anyone else getting a sense of Deja Vu from this vid?
I figured he wouldn’t get a high score. His lack of shield to back up his gladius hinders effectiveness from the get-go.
I thought the overall/hope score would be higher. A bit of a downer, but your points do make sense.
You should add novelty as a category. Or tilt lol

I did notice the reverse grip, but it didn’t bother me as much in Kneel Before Me because none of those strikes were lethal or meant to be. They were meant to make superficial cuts to bring the target down. I only get mad when a reverse grip is used to do significant damage or death, as reverse grips lessen the amount of force that can be applied.
@@RavenKnightYT this only applies to slashes right? It most definitely gives more forces for some stabs
@@RavenKnightYT oh. My mistake.
@@cassidy4451 Yes, it only applies to slashes. reverse hand grips should only be used for stabbing motions, not slashing
Veni vidi Vinci,you can move after staying still for a second….shorter than what the execution shows.
i swear cent is just a recently recruited gladiator
Please do aramusha
Gotta love seeing him soywojacking on stupid videogame kills 💀
9:18
This is the one I have a disagreement with
Because at 9:26 you make a good point it is unrealistic, but I think that’s the point, because I don’t think most people wouldn’t be thinking straight if they were bleeding out from their gut and repeatedly punch in the face with their own fist
But then again this list is SUBJECTIVE
So I RESPECT YOUR OPINION AND LIKE THIS VIDEO
"Theres no reason you couldnt do this i rhink its totally fine"
Time to puncture peoples lungs (=
The one where warden and cent struggle that is not reverse grip
The gladius was a lot better at chopping than people tend to think skallagrim has a great vid on it
Roman Boi
"A Spina Ad Brachium"
Realism: 1
You can stab a guy like that. You just can't do ANYTHING else.
Heard your mic crackle here and there.
Right?
He should get a new audio set up
Bc the he sounds like he's in his garage 😅
Well if you wanna help me pay for a better mic set up, I do have a patreon and a teespring store. That way I can afford a better sound system than the one I have.
With the Roman uppercut he could of at leasttttt threw his sword into the dudes foot
13:29, In an actual match you regain control of cent once stops.
For the end of Vini vidi vici when he’s standing there u can move in game right after u Stab him and move on it’s super fast and gives back good health

For aspana a brakia I'm pretty sure that's just slightly below the ribcage and against the side of the spine were he pulles not in it, sow that chances things a little. Before you say no a medieval belt is worn on the natural waste which is just on top of the hips and he plunches the blade in just above that it might contect the lowest ribs, but I doesn't have to break them to get past them. He doesn't have to go true bone to pull it out and if the blade is really sharp I think you might be able to pull it out like this. Again might I would give this a 2 at best aswell cause I'm not compleetly sure either. My beef is with the arm coming of that's not happing, especily not if you rip it true a guy, sow that makes it a 1. I would argue with your cool factor though it's sow f*cking savages I love it, I don't let that effect my judgment though. Apart from that one everything is solide and I agree with you.
You have to understand he’s just filled with the exaggerated swagger of a black teen
you do know centurions in the past we’re in gladiator fights right?
They could be if they chose to. It wasn't their profession. What's your point?
@@RavenKnightYT well one of the executions u said was too “gladiator like” or u said it looked like something gladiator would do so i just wanted to point that out
