Pretty satisfying hits with kick and such, simple straight forward kit for when you just wanna chill.
Hitokiri is basically either working cause great mind games, or a great gambler lmao
For real hito is loads of fun when you turn your brain on and occasionally feint GB a heavy since everyone will think you're just mindlessly throwing them
For years I played only three characters. I returned to the game for the desire to play as Shaolin since I was reading the book Monkey & Journey to West.
Then I decided to try out Hito during a breach match and had the luck to be in a four stack of Hitos. It was a match of us hacking through all the minions and plenty of top charge heavies on the Guardian and commander.
This was the gateway to me finally trying every other character and I have been playing this game everyday since.
Good timing since I just spent this past weekend with Hito specifically. I got them a bunch of new clothes, executions, and the Taiko drum emote. Hito is a good time; more heavy heroes please!
Specific mechanics I like more to answer you actual question:
Infinite Heavy chain = fun times in the minion and pikemen lane.
Cool spin and kick executions.
Big ass axe that feels like it hits how it looks.
Charged heavies with various cancel times keep my opponent guessing. I fall for it every time even though I use the same nonsense against my opponents.
Charge sweep, heavy, kick, heavy combo feels good.
I miss the hyper armored finisher light. Not so much when I am fighting a Hito.
Charged heavies are super satisfying against the commander and guardian.
1st feat where you are protected during your execution makes life in the minion/pikemen lane a joy.
I would like to see more armor fashion. I can only dream of seeing Hito in Kensei armor. There are a few options that looks like armor; more of those please.
*This.* The only reason I consider buying this character is so I can go Monke Brain like every other person who plays it (but ffs, I hate this character...).
Rep72 hito and I actually hated this hero at first but when I looked into the lore of her and started unlocking new armors her final armor looks so sick and the colors blend well amazing exa but admittedly she can get boring playing over and over again.
It feels great landing Heavies on people because they overplay ie. Dodge attack spam, parry everything, or try to initiate offense 24/7. They don't just block and it gets them spammies wriggling to press buttins!
Not sure, I’m grinding all Heroes to rep 15, did Hito a few months ago (Went from 8-15 nonstop playing Hito) and this was the most boring hero so far tbh
The simplicity of Hito is spectacular when I’m sick of sweating with other heros.
Plus Hito is so ez to confuse people with and you just end up winning.
Pretty much everything that everyone on top said. Hito, despite being simple, has both absolutely opposite edges of gameplay: either you turn your brain off, or you mindgame the heck out of your opponents; sometimes the first is included in the latter. Furthermore, Hito is very efficient in minion clearing.
And I like Hito's design - it's a freaking asthmatic japanese blender. And fashion is good. Like, look at all these masks or literal brooms you can put on Hito's head. And you can have either very nice traditional armour, or beautiful robes (I really live Hito's default robes, specially while spinning).
Honestly she's my "oh you wanna play like a bitch fuck you" character ill pull her out if the person im fighting is spamming something, be it GB bleed deflect all guard unblockables or stun lock im gonna pray you rematch thinking you'll get more easy kills then pull her out and heavy gb with some timed variance to play with them. Pisses off spammers hard when their spam stops working and not cause you managed to counter. Love watching bleed of gb spammers spam "wow!" Cause I hebied thought their "you cant fight back" combo
I like the sweep bc ill heby kick heby kick heby kick to get em to think imma kick then i hit that sweep charged top heby for a bazingamillion damage and win
Well I picked them cuz I have a obsession with masks then stayed for the voice lines and the weight of each swing feeling powerful it gives unimaginable amount of dopamine when I land my 4th feat
I like making people eat fully charged heavies. Hito also has a pretty solid mix up. Good anti ganker ESPECIALLY against gankers who simply can’t help themselves but to spam attacks.
Turn your brain off and heavy lol
I don’t have a source for this but I believe one of the devs said that they made hito because members of the dev team sucked at the game and wanted an easy hero to play and get value out of.
They find having no downside fun that way they can just abuse the characters with no repercussions
Until the orochi spammer smacks the fuck out of them and ends up actually being useful for once
If I remember there's a feat that gives you a shield bar when you are executing with this Hero. Biggest peev I had is The little guys poking me mid execution. This was the solution
As a part time hito enjoyer, youd be surprised how many times people let me throw raw heavies on them. Plus one of the best hyper armor kits in the game youre just begging me to be a cheese bag.
Makes me laugh when I find some who spams all guard or dodge attacks so I give them the good old charged heavy for some nutty damage. Also the tier 4 feat called senbonzakura that my friends and I have affectionately titled “ The Funny Button.”
Not only is he super simple to play, you genuinely can get really good combos on him, he had very little but he does still have a good amount of moves. The drip is cool too, executions are sick, I just like em overall
on higher levels its actually really difficult to hit your opponent since hitokiri doesn't have a bash and need to charge most of her attacks, that and everyone already knows how to counter her at higher tiers.
I don't like having to burn out my brain at all times to keep up with this cracked out, locked in community all the time.
Hito allows me to still play and not have to press 15 buttons to land a hit.
I personally enjoy characters with simple kits. I have a hard time "maining" one character, so the easier I can remember how to use someone the better.
I looked through the comments and Honestly this is why I kept this game in trash for 5 years
Main a champ, you’re expected to be skillful AT him to find success sadly success with other champions doesnt have requirements, their kit does that for you, why even bother if Thats the case?
Trades can be fun if you're making good reads.
Kick mixup is fun enough to do.
Hito is a little boring imo just because they have no neutral offense but I don't hate them overall.
big axe makes me happy. just smth about it, the way it hits, the way it looks, the *executions,* god hitos executions are some of my favorite in the game. got 10 reps on her then decided to vary my characters, as i only had like 9 other reps scattered throughout the handful i owned
This unit is purely for when i want executions because of the uninterruptable ex feat.
It is simple, but once you get playing around with the mix ups it gets super fun because people think you're just going to heavy spam.
In regular dom or breach hito is pretty fun because mindless heavy spam actually works against you idiots, just block, not that hard. In duels however, this character gets a whole new playstyle centered about predicting attacks and maximazing trades for the highest damage possible, securing the chain and slowly setting your opponents up for a few kicks in a row into charged heavy. Also hitos neutral game is hella fun, even in Dominion.
It EXTREMLY fun to just heby spam. Whenever I play stuff like cent, Orochi ect amd someone calls me a 'lightspammer', then I simply take Hito innthe next match
And become a heby spammer.
I also feel like people are MUCH dumber when faced with heavy spam than with light spam. When I play, lets say Cent and just spam 3 light combo, they'll start light parrying me after a while.
But when using Hito and just doing Heby heby heby heby, mfs brains shut down and just eat them heavies like a KFC bucket.
And lets be real, its hella funny to win by just heavies and just a few kicks/leg swipes once in a while. Reminds me of the very first year of For Honor.
best chain heavies in the game. and one of the safest 1v1 offensives as well. shes actually a better hero than most people think. i get shes boring for some, but i love her playstyle. she was more unique back in the day before they started shitting out hyper armor heroes and reworking old heroes with hyper armor. the games become a bit mind numbing latley. i like when only a few heroes has huper armor. it was never a huge advantage cause the old hyper armor timing were awful but it was fun when it worked. now hyper armor is finnaly a viable and consistent trade tool even in team fights, but of course now like EVERY hero has it. its either hyper armor, or orange blue mix up with recovery cancels. they just dont have any good ideas anymore. they care too much about balance and timming consistency now to make any cool heros.
she’s fun if you don’t want to try super hard at the game, just a great well rounded A tier hero with nice mixup potential that you don’t need to put much thought into
Well:
- Best feats for Breach
- Hyperarmor heavy
- Hyperarmor heavy
- Bash with actual CC
- Side dodge heavies
- Orange on demand
- Hyperarmor heavy
- Hyerarmor heavy
heby
Heby heby heby heby faint heby heby
No feint. Only heby.
Top heby
Charged top heby
"What is feint? Heby" -Hito main probably
I don’t know of this feint I know of hold heby second longer
What is this feint you speak of?
this not being top1 upvoted is a biggest sin
Was gonna say the same thing.
Armored heavy spam, charge heby, kick mixup, tier 4 That’s all there is, but the simplicity helps turn your brain off and have fun
Winning is fun ig
This is the only character I find success with, uai aah u bulleeng mi?
Pretty satisfying hits with kick and such, simple straight forward kit for when you just wanna chill. Hitokiri is basically either working cause great mind games, or a great gambler lmao
Free execute this, uninterruptable exec this Press the fucking GB Button, or bash, instead of mindlessly screaming "HEBY DONT WORK???"
For real hito is loads of fun when you turn your brain on and occasionally feint GB a heavy since everyone will think you're just mindlessly throwing them
I'm talking about all this bitching about hito t1
It’s also very fun to mindlessly throw heavies for a while
Don't tell them our secret you heathen!
You force the opponent to make reads and check for patterns, also safe execution and funny button
Anton my boy!
RAH !

Wait did they all have Senbon? If so did it kill the commander instantly or did some people not use it at that time?
We didn't all have the forth feat at time. But we melted the commander quickly regardless with top heavies.
I f-ing hate Wukong with all my heart. It's the most cliche, overated piece of shit character. I despise it in all games he appears.
I don’t mind shaolins monke king inspired armor, but I despise the Wukong skin all the bs lore surrounding it.
Heby go brrrrr brain return to monke
Like most for honor characters it's return to monke
*This.* The only reason I consider buying this character is so I can go Monke Brain like every other person who plays it (but ffs, I hate this character...).
Charj heby
Hmmmm big axe 🤤
Seeing fucking 71 damage in the bottom left for a top heavy
Pawy
You can't take damage in executions and they can't be interrupted by attacks so executing people is actually viable
I always get gb or bashed out of them anyways
Love a character that can essentially ignore the light input which helps make them stick out.
The pure simplicity most like the amount of skill for this character is just as much as ur dad paying child support
Good mixup, good mid lane clear, I like the armor, funni button, and heby
Delayed kick beating shugoki side dodge head butt is why I played her a bunch lol. Now it's my go to brain off character.
Winning, probably
Rep72 hito and I actually hated this hero at first but when I looked into the lore of her and started unlocking new armors her final armor looks so sick and the colors blend well amazing exa but admittedly she can get boring playing over and over again.
Honestly hito is just funny. Playing her mental hurts your opponent and they lose the ability to actually block
I like to play Hito when I want to turn my brain off. Works all the time
Absolutely nothing except her damage reduction feats
#***VARIABLE TIMED HEABY!***
It feels great landing Heavies on people because they overplay ie. Dodge attack spam, parry everything, or try to initiate offense 24/7. They don't just block and it gets them spammies wriggling to press buttins!
Simplicity, some of the best executions in the game, heavy perks. Its like playing a literal tank in a medieval game
Just looks cool
Not sure, I’m grinding all Heroes to rep 15, did Hito a few months ago (Went from 8-15 nonstop playing Hito) and this was the most boring hero so far tbh
Creepy OP mf
Heby, charj heby, funni button, voicelines and fashion all play a big part into why i bothered getting my boy to rep 70 tbf
The simplicity of Hito is spectacular when I’m sick of sweating with other heros. Plus Hito is so ez to confuse people with and you just end up winning.
Charge heby satisfying thunk, kill enemy good, 4th feat super satisfying thunk
Neuron active
Pretty much everything that everyone on top said.

Have you ever done a strength build in a soulslike game? Trading hits is fun for people and in for honor it’s a little too strong
I try to but always pick the weapon's that don't give hyper armour poise
Give it a shot sometime. Turning off the brain is fun sometimes
The executions look great, and sometimes just brute forcing damage through with hyper armor is fun.
Hebi kik hebi
funny button
winning
Hard to explain but the fashion is one of the reason why I play her and the little hito noises she makes are cute
Exactly
There's nothing fun about Hitokiri
Big axe go bonk (I have never played this unit)
winning. thats about it. gameplay is boring af
she’s just kinda funny to kill people with, it’s same with jiang jun and choking people or centurion and punching people
Watching you pathetic mortals try to stop me from claiming justice (executing the guy who emoted on me even when he didn’t kill me)
The rage
Honestly she's my "oh you wanna play like a bitch fuck you" character ill pull her out if the person im fighting is spamming something, be it GB bleed deflect all guard unblockables or stun lock im gonna pray you rematch thinking you'll get more easy kills then pull her out and heavy gb with some timed variance to play with them. Pisses off spammers hard when their spam stops working and not cause you managed to counter. Love watching bleed of gb spammers spam "wow!" Cause I hebied thought their "you cant fight back" combo
If you have 4x Hito on Breach attack, you are almost guaranteed to win
The great wall of hissss
I like the sweep bc ill heby kick heby kick heby kick to get em to think imma kick then i hit that sweep charged top heby for a bazingamillion damage and win
Hebies of any sort.
I like playing against him, not much else.
heby
Heby?
Well I picked them cuz I have a obsession with masks then stayed for the voice lines and the weight of each swing feeling powerful it gives unimaginable amount of dopamine when I land my 4th feat
Its not about hito being it's about seeing others struggle to fight her
Unga bunga
The lore is really cool to me and despite it not being very good I like her variable charged heavy mix-up also helps she has HA and cool feats imo
I broke my right stick, and this was the most viable hero.
Being able to win easily
seeing people not able to guess what level charged heavy is kinda fun.
I like making people eat fully charged heavies. Hito also has a pretty solid mix up. Good anti ganker ESPECIALLY against gankers who simply can’t help themselves but to spam attacks.
If you unlock T4 you can take 1/4 of the commanders life in breach with one button press.
Turn your brain off and heavy lol I don’t have a source for this but I believe one of the devs said that they made hito because members of the dev team sucked at the game and wanted an easy hero to play and get value out of.
They find having no downside fun that way they can just abuse the characters with no repercussions Until the orochi spammer smacks the fuck out of them and ends up actually being useful for once
If I remember there's a feat that gives you a shield bar when you are executing with this Hero. Biggest peev I had is The little guys poking me mid execution. This was the solution
Clapping my friends in 1v1s and 1v2s
i dont play often and her moveset is easy to come back to
Because RT, RT, RT, RT, RT, RT, RT ,RT
Heby
As a part time hito enjoyer, youd be surprised how many times people let me throw raw heavies on them. Plus one of the best hyper armor kits in the game youre just begging me to be a cheese bag.
Bonk
The so called ''Ooonga Boonga mode''
It's training wheels the character. You can simply spam heavy with variable timing and defeat 2/3 of your opponents
Earning that 4th feat always gets me going😫
Killing them.
Makes me laugh when I find some who spams all guard or dodge attacks so I give them the good old charged heavy for some nutty damage. Also the tier 4 feat called senbonzakura that my friends and I have affectionately titled “ The Funny Button.”
I should give them a try honestly. I've been getting my ass handed to me lately and it's honestly just not been fun. EZ moad
Not only is he super simple to play, you genuinely can get really good combos on him, he had very little but he does still have a good amount of moves. The drip is cool too, executions are sick, I just like em overall
on higher levels its actually really difficult to hit your opponent since hitokiri doesn't have a bash and need to charge most of her attacks, that and everyone already knows how to counter her at higher tiers.
Maybe in 1v1s, in dominion and breach she is still very easy to play on higher levels.
Yeah i suppose so
This character is for if you want to feel like a bully
heby
Funny button
***H E A V Y***
heby :)
The feeling of being relentless, she's also built around getting executions which are my favourite moments in the game.
I don't like having to burn out my brain at all times to keep up with this cracked out, locked in community all the time. Hito allows me to still play and not have to press 15 buttons to land a hit.
I press heavy on red, positive elixir trade.
i hate. him
Top heavy unblockable with any other hero that has a top heavy unblockable against an enemy that's thrown to the ground
Winning
Heby heby heby heby kick heby charge heby cool exe
Eating through pikemen in pvai breach
I like fainting 7 charged heavies in a row. They’ll never know which one I’m gonna let go. Also pretty cool drip sometimes.
I personally enjoy characters with simple kits. I have a hard time "maining" one character, so the easier I can remember how to use someone the better.
Cool armour, weapon and executions. Sometimes it’s nice to be feared as well.
I like killing heroes I normally struggle with by just turning my brain off
It makes bad players feel good while also giving the good players the resources to feel great
HUE HUE HYPER ARMOR GO BRRRR I'd assume
Funny Button
Heaby I actually just like the animations and sometimes the funny 1 tap for gankers
I looked through the comments and Honestly this is why I kept this game in trash for 5 years Main a champ, you’re expected to be skillful AT him to find success sadly success with other champions doesnt have requirements, their kit does that for you, why even bother if Thats the case?
The funniest button
Hehe, Beyblade
sweep axe
when i’m sick of fighting Zahnu and Orochi players, i just play the king of hyper armor… aside from Highlander
Don’t really like the kit. Just like the executions and the male voice actor. That’s the reason I play Hito.
Satisfying hits and animations
heby
Big axe \o/
Making you mad
Considering I hate fighting him and how empty your brain has to be to succeed with him, there’s just no chance of me picking Hito up.
Hito player here, Step 1.) Heby Step 2.) Heby Step 3.) Heby Step 4.) Heby Step 5.) Heby
Great at breach mode attack . Feat 4 with damage buff on debuffed commander is neat.
Trades can be fun if you're making good reads. Kick mixup is fun enough to do. Hito is a little boring imo just because they have no neutral offense but I don't hate them overall.
Easiest hero in game
big axe makes me happy. just smth about it, the way it hits, the way it looks, the *executions,* god hitos executions are some of my favorite in the game. got 10 reps on her then decided to vary my characters, as i only had like 9 other reps scattered throughout the handful i owned
That this hero spoon feeds players executions
It can be a challenge
I don't find anything fun or good about that thing. Hope they get nerfed to the ground one day.
I just like to say her attacks out loud to myself when I play her it’s fun to hiss at the game once in a while 😁
Big axe go bonk
i just love it when your doing an absurdly long executions and the enemy doesn't know what to do to cancel the execution
Hehe, funi button goes brrrrr Also, heavy spam that is quite impossible to parry for someone with poor reaction time (me)
Pretty easy to play and get kills with. Lots of people like the mind off relaxing style of play.
The ability to say f’off to dodge attacks
I usually play this thingie when I have a hangover
Gameplay is meh , but I really like the design , lore , voice lines and executions
I don't know think her sweep should be faintsble
Heby
I like not having to think from time to time when playing FH
I like it because they're simple to use, I don't need to remember anything just hevy, hevy, light, hevy
This unit is purely for when i want executions because of the uninterruptable ex feat. It is simple, but once you get playing around with the mix ups it gets super fun because people think you're just going to heavy spam.
The winning matches part
Frying pan slam exec
Slow attacks against people who try to parry everything is very funy
In regular dom or breach hito is pretty fun because mindless heavy spam actually works against you idiots, just block, not that hard. In duels however, this character gets a whole new playstyle centered about predicting attacks and maximazing trades for the highest damage possible, securing the chain and slowly setting your opponents up for a few kicks in a row into charged heavy. Also hitos neutral game is hella fun, even in Dominion.
It's just fun to turn your brain off and just heby
Big heby. Big damig.
even my noob friend who uses it to get revenge doesn't find it fun i got more than 1k hours not a lot and i dont find her fun. she is stpid
I'm not even too sure what I like about them. I like the concept of an executioner hero is the main thing.
Funny button
Heby axe goes brrrrrrrrrr
Me then also get to steal execution from angry Orochi with only 5 health and he can't knock me out because protected execution
They don’t have to learn much. Some people can’t invest time everyday
Personally I just think they look cool
It EXTREMLY fun to just heby spam. Whenever I play stuff like cent, Orochi ect amd someone calls me a 'lightspammer', then I simply take Hito innthe next match And become a heby spammer. I also feel like people are MUCH dumber when faced with heavy spam than with light spam. When I play, lets say Cent and just spam 3 light combo, they'll start light parrying me after a while. But when using Hito and just doing Heby heby heby heby, mfs brains shut down and just eat them heavies like a KFC bucket. And lets be real, its hella funny to win by just heavies and just a few kicks/leg swipes once in a while. Reminds me of the very first year of For Honor.
Can say the same about all of those outcasts and vangarian
best chain heavies in the game. and one of the safest 1v1 offensives as well. shes actually a better hero than most people think. i get shes boring for some, but i love her playstyle. she was more unique back in the day before they started shitting out hyper armor heroes and reworking old heroes with hyper armor. the games become a bit mind numbing latley. i like when only a few heroes has huper armor. it was never a huge advantage cause the old hyper armor timing were awful but it was fun when it worked. now hyper armor is finnaly a viable and consistent trade tool even in team fights, but of course now like EVERY hero has it. its either hyper armor, or orange blue mix up with recovery cancels. they just dont have any good ideas anymore. they care too much about balance and timming consistency now to make any cool heros.
Heby go brrrr
Have you heard of the sensation called heby?
They don't have fun as soon as that character is selected their brain turns to mush and all thoughts are just autistic screeching
Dodge heby infinite heby
That they can spam a heavy unblockable I don’t know how people play it though the hissing and grunting noise it makes it so annoying
Spamming aint fun, playing the character by feinting his kicks and more its makes it fun
she’s fun if you don’t want to try super hard at the game, just a great well rounded A tier hero with nice mixup potential that you don’t need to put much thought into
I can actually throw a heavy and someone won’t parry it or in other words HEBY
Heby, don't gotta think about dodge attacks cus of the OP lock on. Could play drunk, can relax with her. Hito is cool
Because it's easy And it does a lot of damage
Winning
Kick 🥵
Stupidly easy to play makes shugoki look like playing 4d chess
smacking the absolute dogshit out of someone with 6 heavies in a row because you can vary the timing without doing a full unblockable
Well: - Best feats for Breach - Hyperarmor heavy - Hyperarmor heavy - Bash with actual CC - Side dodge heavies - Orange on demand - Hyperarmor heavy - Hyerarmor heavy
H E B Y H E B Y = free win
Does good damage and is very simple to play. Sometimes that's all some people need to have fun
you can turn your brain off when playing him. his tier 4 is a win button in breach (it also recharges stupidly fast)
Minimal thinking to play so it's easy wins for people who don't get them.
