We Played "For Honor" With Celebrities (And Got Destroyed)
When Ubisoft x Twitch Prime co-hosted a celebrity live stream of Ubi's new hack n' slash game For Honor, everyone was getting along fine...until we started playing.
You can watch the full For Honor massacre here. Be warned: things get stabby.

We could tell immediately that the atmosphere at the For Honor Twitch stream was, er, warlike.
There was a very "stab-permissive" vibe at ESL Studios that day, my friends.
Alfie Allen (Theon Greyjoy) had fun practicing For Honor.
That's not the face of someone who's looking to stab us. Or so we THOUGHT.
Jason Momoa (Khal Drogo), on the other hand, brought that trademark Dothraki intensity.
Jason turned out to be a real sweetheart, but the man enjoyed a good stabbing.
Jason and Alfie played on a team with Gamer-In-Chief Jessica Chobot, so we liked their chances for victory.
Practicing the ancient Dothraki greeting: The righteous Double High Five.
But they were facing off against Lauren Cohan (Maggie Greene), who knows all about stabbing...
She gets real offensive with those zombies in The Walking Dead.
...and Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson, one of the UFC's most dangerous mixed martial artists.
These other folks fight in TV shows, Demetrious throws hands IRL. And he doesn't lose.
The celebs battle was straight up savage, but in the end Lauren and Demetrious prevailed.
Lauren showed off some of that "offensive mindedness" she told us about.

By the time he faced off against us, the smiles were gone and Alfie had gained Momoa-like ferocity.
There's the Theon Greyjoy GoT fans know and love.
Luckily for Alfie, he got to take out his frustration on us, a couple of For Honor N00bs.
Our performance was pretty pathetic, tbh.
At the bloody end of our match there was only one word left to describe it:
