The Guide
Have you ever had issues dealing with a skilled Matador player killing you even though your health bar was nearly full? Yes? In that case you have probably been a victim of Matador's dreaded execution combo.

In the video guide below I will demonstrate how this combo works and what you can do to prevent yourself from falling victim to it.


A special thanks to all the members of the Secret Ponchos community that played against me while I was making footage for this guide. I couldn't have done it without you!

Good points Renart.

Downside of a video guide is that it's harder to edit those additions in, as they are really good calls.

Thanks for the feedback though, I'll be sure to incorporate them if I ever need to redo the guide (and I'll look into thumbnails). ^^

Hey mate! Stealth lasts 7 seconds and isn't based on if the target have bands on him or not. Stealth goes off early if you switch to bands mode so you have to stay in melee mode. Also a good strategy to avoid the execution is to not burn stam early, wait half the sound animation and then get away fast. It buys you time and in best case scenario Mat gets stucked in her execute animation far from you. Good call on tracking her on the sound tho, it's a quite sexy thing to practice!

Very well done. Hope we'll see less trophies on matador's wall now. :claugh:
