Guest in Roblox Forsaken is usually played as a high-skill survivor who wins by timing, not by rushing in. The basic idea is to use block to absorb or bait a hit, then convert that into a stronger follow-up like parry punch or a safe escape, while charge is used to create distance, knock the killer back, or clear threats like minions.

How to play him

  1. Stay near teammates when the killer is pressuring someone, so you can intercept hits and punish mistakes.
  1. Use block only when you expect the killer’s swing, because missing it leaves you open and slowed.
  1. After a successful block, use the follow-up punch/parry for a longer stun and better control.
  1. Save charge for moments that matter, like escaping chase, protecting an ally, or deleting minions; it can also give temporary invincibility if it connects.
  1. Play patiently. Guest is strong, but the guides consistently describe him as a character that rewards timing, awareness, and game sense more than constant aggression.

Practical tips

  • Bait the killer into swinging first, then block and punish.
  • Use terrain and teammates to force awkward angles.
  • Don’t throw charge randomly; missing it can punish you hard.
  • Against minion-heavy killers, use charge to clear space and keep control of the area.

What changed recently

A newer guide says Guest was reworked into more of a distance-making character instead of a pure tank, so modern play leans even more toward spacing, knockback, and smart escapes rather than soaking damage.

Simple match plan

  1. Start cautious and watch the killer’s swing rhythm.
  2. Block only when you can realistically confirm the hit timing.
  3. Use parry or punch after a clean block.
  4. Save charge to break chase or protect a teammate.
  5. Repeat until the killer is forced into bad trades.

In short: Guest is best when you play like a patient counterfighter, not a brawler.
