Stab chamberblock

[Stabbing Hobo]

And all to stab. Even stab to stab will hit first. With onehanders right-to-left changed to left-to right is also fast enough.

No, parity is actually right.
There are some people around that can make a feint, then start another attack after you started the chamberblock attack and still hit you first.
I really don't get it how they pull it off.

That only works against the chamberblockers who wait for the connection sound to release their swing. Some do not, and rely solely on their own timing. The moment you feint, their attack is already underway and will hit you first. I'll admit, they are rare. Bjordhinn is a fine example though.

I'm pretty sure that an as fast as possible feint will always beat out a chamber. Human reaction time + latency is always gonna take longer than it does to feint (basically you have to be baiting the chamber if they chamber really fast) if you're doing it as fast as you can.

Feinting works for me against chambering fans (there are usually 1-2 of those on the server, so they're easy to recognise). Just dont feint for too long - I once got stabbed to death by chamberblocker who was tired of my 10 sec feinting and decided to strike first, lol
