All you have to do is crouch, look at the sky, and turn 90 degrees to either your left or right (the turn is optional but it increases your chances of success). So the question remains: How do you matrix? Essentially, it is like a duck, but instead of bending forwards you are bending backwards.

Additionally, your opponent is almost always unprepared for a well performed matrix. For the most part, it is another line of defense, but it is unique, because unlike your other defenses, such as a shield or parry, it leaves you open to attack your now defenseless opponent at no cost to your stamina. Matrixing is the manipulation of the player model in order to avoid another player’s attacks. I’d like to start with matrixing, because I feel that it is such a useful skill post-patch with the removal of the combo feint to parry (and it looks super cool). I played as a knight and a vanguard, but these still apply to MAA and Archer (melee). I will try to create a comprehensive list of advanced tips that I have picked up over the 400 hours I’ve had with the game. With this post, I aim to do something different.

Recently, with the flood of new players into the chivalry community, there have been large amounts of tip threads, and inside of each of them I see the same rehashed tips that a player could acquire from spending twenty hours with the game. My experience from hundreds of hours of Chivalry is incorporated into this guide, and it will make you a much better player if you take the time to read through it all. This guide covers: Matrixing, Dragging, Forcing a parry, Going around a parry, Spin Attacks, and Advanced parrying. Chivalry Medieval Warfare Advanced Mechanics Guide by HK-47
