Downvoted, there is plenty more you need to know about melee. That said, there is already a guide that explains melee in depth, one you foolishly replaced with this hollow shell of a guide.

Pretty easy to avoid all of this in the first place if your playing as orks :P simply roll back and shoot em down works every time :)

I was hoping for some tips for fighting people playing from Taiwan and Moscow.

Fastest downvote in history.

For anyone who came here expecting to learn something, you should at least know that this Rock/Paper/Scissors is not evenly balanced, as many weapons (particularly Eldar) can heavy attack faster than many of the larger weapons can fast attack. Since heavy attack has the longest stun effect of any of the counters, they will land it before you fast attack, and your fast will NOT counter them. You will instead be stunned while they chop you once or twice more.

Hopefully knowing this makes that experience easier to anticipate and less frustrating.

You missed something.

Kick or Parrying blow's kick has a delay off the first hit. This secound hit is what stuns you. But if you react, you can EVADE the stun and go back to attacking.

This is, by no means, everything you could know about melee, but it is sufficient for ranged-only players.

Questnpc, are the dbash/kicks slower or faster between factions? Most of my experience is that the parry/dbash on Orks is slower. In the case of a dbash clash, I actually get stunned before my hit goes through. I do understand if this is lag, but I've also had a clash with it before. Any example has been against LSM and CSM, not sure on Eldar.
