You
I
I
Transcending history and the world, a tale of dudes and souls, eternally told.
Destroyed
We are the need, the shine, the night, the sea
Battle for, cause come along your journey
Ah, the fire, given to go
Searching for the master
Deep in the night and threatening my heart
The whole space should hide
Showing me what love, showing me what love
Stake up the night
To call against the death of the soul
To carry on
What the man with the blue beard is gonna hide
To get the soul
To carry on
Deep in the night
Oh
What's up, dudes?
All right, chat. Dang, I feel like we were just streaming.
Hi.
All these like midday sponsors and stuff. Hi. Hello.
Oh, God, I didn't start the YouTube stream.
Oh, God, I started the YouTube stream.
There we go. Hi.
Hello. Hello.
YouTube stream officially started.
Hello. Yeah.
Let's get back into it.
More invincible verses.
I got to play, got to rank up, got to get some more matches in,
got to figure out some dank shit, really got to figure out
combos that let you do a syssept or super.
Um, that's the big one, man.
That's where like the real heavy hitter damage is awesome.
Insane conquest of conquest has a universal T.O.D.
Right now, because his charge M in the air is way too good is way too good.
C.O.T.W.
Finals soon.
I want to watch that.
I want to watch that.
We're going to be bouncing between like probably playing invincible all nine
and EVO Japan.
So, you know, you know, um, but the cool part is that the games
been out for like a day now and it's starting to settle in like how it is
and it's getting pretty good. Like I'm starting to look at reviews of people talking about it
and stuff like that because I'm looking for tech on Twitter and it's like the overall impression
of it is that game's pretty fun. You start unlocking shit. My dude I'm retweeting this
shit because it's like nobody nobody we don't know how the game's supposed to be played
Like, nobody actually understands how the game is going to operate, like, in the next, like, month, much less a week.
We really don't.
Um, but...
There's some shit that is, like, unlocking the limiters of what, like, your brain can do.
Stuff like this, man.
I kinda want to play Luke in.
Roar.
Game and short combos.
I'm on a nob of this.
And this isn't even a TOD.
Or it is.
Totally is a TOD.
Totally is a goddamn TOD.
Uh, YouTube stream is not, uh, is it?
Oh, it's under unlisted. Hold on a second.
Chat, did the, uh, did...
Oh, it was unlisted. My bad. Here we go. Let's make it pubic.
Um, somebody's probably didn't save.
Alright. Should be good now. Should be good.
Um, so I have to figure out
What I need to do to get a bunch of time in between moves and characters that take a lot of time during supers or EX moves.
You need time. TXMashi, thank you. So I have to figure that out.
Immediately my brain goes to Alan and Conquest and they're like bionic arm supers? Maybe?
I just like playing Conquest, it's like kinda blue?
Anything else on Alan?
That one's not bad.
Any more skins do I need to get?
Sure, I got more in Omni, man.
Oh, yeah, he has completely two different skins.
Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, like this pink one, um, beat up Cecil.
Mark's back assist would totally work, it looks like you're in for a long time, it locks
you in for a long time.
Yeah, you need those time wasters.
Um.
Yeah, okay already already there is something
Hey, okay
Oh
That crosses up Alan what about yours?
Alan what about yours?
Okay, Alan cannot do it.
I don't think he can.
That also doesn't work.
Okay, so Alan can't do it.
But this can.
The problem is, it flips to the opposite side.
Yeah, hmmm.
I got it also completely depends on the assist
and I think it's all timing dependent
body
body
move, no, no, delay assist to the cross-up, yeah that's what I'm thinking
and it might be corner only
Hmm gotta figure it out
Dude, I love it from from across the board people are like
Combos are too short and don't do damage and also we need more health
I've heard the same criticism all over the place which is kind of neat because nobody knows how to play the game
Like I'm even watching people that are in the higher ranks of the game and nobody is doing heroic strike
It is crazy dude
I'm legit watching the game at the highest level that's currently being offered and nobody is doing heroic strike
It's fucking nuts. I was the only one heroic striking people yesterday. Like that's crazy. It's a core game mechanic
Anyway
What gives me um
Also this crushes armor weirdly enough this for some reason breaks all armor in the game if you needy this you're like good
Also, I saw something insane I
Saw something insane that I have to try
Like like this is hold on a second
Back to him. Yeah, it was with... Hold on a second, all the big boys. Hold up, hold up.
I saw something insane.
Let me check this.
No, hold up.
Okay, that's a safe tag.
But that's interesting, but you can get a safe tag there.
Um, it was this.
Not that.
Where's the sweep?
Wait, you have to do...
Okay.
That's a hard knockdown.
You can't check out.
I have to check.
I ha- I have to check.
this might be legit way too good um I need the data
get you to knock down again okay it's a high it's a high it is not it's not
These are all highs, alright.
It would have been too gross.
It would have been way too gross.
However...
However...
It's all highs.
It's gonna set up for everything.
That's the crazy part.
Right?
So...
His punch special is an overhead.
Hold it down, it goes way higher.
That's an overhead.
Uh-oh, I feel like auto combos do less damage. Check it out dude.
That's how much an auto combo does.
It does like 20% and that's on most characters. They do like 20% they're not much.
That's it.
Like you do anything else you're getting crazy damage. Auto combos in this game are perfect. They suck.
They legit suck. They're good when like confirming because they should be good for confirming.
But like if you just mash this auto combo
It's not a lot of damage
Our auto commas in every fighting game now do they've been in most fighting games ever since the 90s
And even this is an auto combo
Technically auto combo down heavy right heavy. This is auto combo down heavy and then just mash square
still not good yeah ultimate marvel 3 has auto combos marvel 1 has auto combos
you know there's easy mode anyway that's not good like you should be getting
at least like 50% on every touch and if you can do more if you try to air
charge heavy huh ha ha ha
hold up launch first
I'm trying to get this special.
Hold up.
That's pretty good.
That's not bad.
So anyway, I think the idea is that...
Right?
You get a combo.
Or...
Ah
Which ones is this the overhead
That's still a high right that's still a high but
I
Bring
We'll hold bold braining braining
Okay
Let me try.
Okay.
Ha ha.
That's fun.
So, the idea is I want to get them in an actual state.
I want to get them in a state that guarantees.
Uh uh uh uh uh.
Yeah okay.
I
Hold up
Oh, it broke, I like have to see the I have to see the EX right
Yeah
Son of a bitch.
And then I would do...
So I'm putting a button into them to force them into a...
I have to do the heavy one and I have to press up.
I just have to hold it.
And that's it.
And that's it. Does this work for mid-screen?
And that's it.
And there we go.
So...
Is this truly inescapable? Can they not roll wake up there? Um...
No, hard knockdown.
Hard knockdown is...
A hard knockdown.
That's the whole point of it. Is that hard knockdowns are like guaranteed situations
that you force Okie, like really hard Okie. However, there is a giant tell that
tells you hard knockdown. So you know that if you're fighting against somebody
that's good you're about to get your shit pushed in, right? Yeah, hard
knockdown set plays gonna be where this game goes and it's gonna lead to
hard to blockables all over the place. It doesn't happen every time, but it
it is going to be pretty good. However, you have Heroic Strike, right? So if you, you,
you can't also do it all the time. It's not, it's only available if you actually like hit
them in an opportunity where they can't break her and they can't Heroic Strike. Heroic
Strike costs a bar and a half, breaker costs two bars. So it's actually not gonna happen
all the time that's what's crazy we need to play Titan tonight I gotta I gotta play Titan
uh so yeah this EX rock break armor um no so here's the thing there is almost no moves in
this game that have wake up invulnerability everybody thought there was but there wasn't
They had like two frames of startup. They were fast, but they had two frames of startup, so
There was an assumption that people were just echoing when no one actually went into training mode that you can just mash invincible dps
in between block strings and shit
And as somebody that had invincible dps on the characters I played
Invincible they're worn invincible. They had no invulnerability until the armor kicked in
So, as long as you actually meaty, the problem is actually meatying in this game, getting
a proper meaty, is kind of hard, but that is not super easy to do.
So because of it, people weren't getting good meaty timing because wake-up timing is weird.
You know what I mean?
What?
Can I not?
Oh, that assist comes out way too late.
is a
they were not know they never were
the only things that are invincible in this game are the low threes
Consistently there are some things that I think have invulnerability of some kind. I think maybe
bulletproof
Has a very quick activating armor level one, but every other character gets interrupted their level one's gonna interrupted all that shit gets interrupted
That did
Damn, I am blowing out mad quick.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, okay.
Trying to get the roundabout.
the
billy and got to
I
Can shit do I have any charge I do
And I do not wow, what is that knockdown?
Wow, what is that knockdown?
I don't even know what to do with that.
Shit.
That just whiffs every single time.
Every single time.
Yeah, I think Titan's gonna have some really crazy shit.
I
Skip the wall bounce
What
Oh, no, he has staircase combos.
Yeah, the Conquest Yodi's gonna go away in probably like a day or two.
Just throwing it out there. They're probably well.
So I wouldn't rely on... Maybe he'll get some cheesy wins with it,
but I'd probably learn how to play the character instead of just doing Charged Am.
I want to try it Wow dude
Oh
This is sick
The six timing
What can I even do with that
This is cool.
This is cool.
Um, he causes a bit too much.
Stand ready.
Blow it out.
a
Hey another wall splat
I forgot what I want to do here um air charge 2m
That does not re-stand
Was it working on maybe a non-big-body
Where's my snapback
I wonder if I can snap back.
My brain is not processing where the hell snapback is.
H and assist too.
Is it forward-backed?
It's funny I get...assist.
That's very interesting.
the
the time to come to get just a little would you be against it
on I think it's kind of in a good spot right now
because on you have to be creative
like there are ways
are definitely our ways that you can have to be creative
Yeah, I don't think I can snap back without binding a button.
Because that is bringing out the assist no matter what.
No, snapback is not MNH.
It's forward or back with MNH.
Oh, my.
Oh, that was the move list.
I'm like, am I on?
How did I get to standard controls?
What happened?
I mean, it's still happening.
That was weird.
That was weird.
I was on standard controls, but all the buttons were working correctly.
That was weird.
Um, anyway, snapback is forward or back, so if I want to do the first character, that
comes robot, if I want to do the second character and being in Monster Girl, you do back.
That's it.
Hmm.
No, I'm not even doing the bind.
This isn't the bind.
This is the manual input.
Um, anyway.
hold up
hold up
Oh my god, dude
Come on you
Wow Wow look what I found
Look what I found.
Blowout!
Um, anyway.
This move is actually not good.
What does this do?
In the air it's like a charge punch?
show I won already that's funny data get off of block
He definitely builds a combo gauge really fast, right?
Oh my god, dude jab already.
I don't know if there will be City of the Wolves announcements because they'll probably
save it to the next day. They probably want theirs on Sunday when the most viewers are going to be.
I'd be happy to be wrong.
,
the ex moves to this much combo meter before
, so
Come on.
Get it.
Gotta get it right at the end.
Come on, buddy.
Why is it?
Let's try it.
Like some moves do.
Some moves do.
Like Mark's and Omni-Man's EX's breakout.
So it's not everything.
I want to do this.
There it is!
Man!
Yeah, that comes out really, really quickly.
Um...
That is an overhead!
Hmm...
Bro
That sucks
That sucks
You pretty much have to do something like this.
Yo, QTGut, thank you.
Hmm.
Do you charge medium after tackle?
Oh, after DX tackle.
I see.
I see.
Interesting.
I see.
Interesting that builds so much bar though like this move builds up so much kv
The follow-up hit
Interesting!
So you can get the neutral assist with a boost dash cancel.
means wait a minute bro hold up boost dash returns me to neutral so does that
mean that I can do my overhead assist even easier hold up I delayed overhead
assist dummy block state all it does bro so chat you can't normally do that in
combo or in strings you get this you get that right but if I boost dash cancel I
get access to my neutral assist wow it doesn't it doesn't matter if they are
blocking or are stuck in block stun as long as my character is in neutral I get
the neutral assist. That is really cool that's really cool holy shit
Wow
Wow
Wow
Wow
Wow
of
Ah, it's not working.
Um...
Let's do down medium again.
I
This is the end
Ha ha ha
No
You need to capture state there.
Oh, shit, dude.
The damage is really bad.
Um...
Wait, I'll build three bars doing this, right?
Right, I'll build three bars doing this so let me just see
We have to make a way to we have to figure out the way to get the best damage possible after this
theCynicalWeeb I'm sorry
announcement's happening oh god hold up hold up with you I'm we need to play we
need to play rock hard whatever his name is we need to play Titan we need to play
Titan it's going on chat and releasing world heroes still happening still
happening. We get all bricked up with Titan. Oh, it's happening. Here we go. Here comes
Ryo or Robert or one of the other.
Who's behind the mask?
Who's Mr. Karate now?
Is it a Robert version of Mr.
Karate?
It is literally a Robert version of
Mr. Karate.
Called it right before I was
announced is literally a Robert
first minister karate that's what the tease was we were assuming it was going
to be real but it was weird because he had the coin
First of all, thank you very much for the wonderful match, and I really appreciate you winning the match.
World Heroes Perfect will be the third game of the premium selection.
Currently, 25% of the game is released.
At least I don't know if that's up.
Now where the hell's the Alex trailer dude?
When the hell are they gonna release the Alex trailer?
I hope you enjoy it.
Also, we're currently playing the Legend of the Legend series season 1 and season 2, so please play this game.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much for the game of World Heroes and the Legend of the Legend series.
Thank you.
Oh my god, that was insane.
Dude, how did you just, what?
The coin?
Come on, I didn't want to believe it.
So as an example, here is a kill sequence
with Titan after one hard knockdown.
He doesn't need high damage
because you're getting touched twice and you're dead, right?
So here's like an example, right, of how this would work.
This is the one we saw in the video.
And I think it might not kill, right?
I think it might not kill.
What is this stream thumbnail on YouTube?
What?
Hold up.
uh oh it didn't save god damn change that was the marvel rival stream earlier
so yeah i mean theoretically if they're at full hb or near full hb you get a two-touch and you're dead
They're dead. You're actually dead. Where's the scaling? I mean, once you, once you, like,
have a better understanding of how to get damage out of combos more than you're cooked.
Can this combo be broken? Yeah, there's like literally, if you used, this is why you
don't want to be breaking combos immediately. Everyone's breaking combos at the start of
the match dude you need to again certain characters you should not be using your breaker until
they have like crazy ass setups like you need to you know so that's kind of like the the
theory behind the combo game and the oaky game which is going to end up being really
powerful in this people are going to have this nearly unblockable setups that happen
after hard knockdowns and you need to save your breaker for that shit more surprises
stay tuned because don't go anywhere we're going to keep the show going all right
I'll see you guys later.
I believe you.
Foxion, thank you for the five gifts.
So let me get back into it.
I'm too, I'm too fascinated by this.
I'm too fascinated by this.
Why is that sometimes when you're hitting your opponent more
because you're doing less damage to them?
Because you're starting your combo with a light attack.
If you start your combo with a special move
or a heavy attack, it does significantly more.
Every, every combo you start with like a light attack
is extremely compromised. Damage-wise. So that means if you are like mashing light auto combo on
wake-up and stuff like that the damage is gonna suck. But if you start with a special move or a
heavy, the special move is the best, you get crazy damage.
Do you like combo breakers and no resource consumption? Yeah, that exists. That's the
tag breaker. People can't beat tagging all the time against you. That doesn't cost
anything. You can do that without even another character.
So who did I want to fuck with?
Invincible versus requires too much FGC veteran knowledge to be
attractive to casuals. The single player content is enough for people.
Bro, like everything in this game is insanely easy to do.
Like literally everything doesn't require, requires almost zero execution.
If you mean that you want to be as good as somebody else,
you want to be as good as people that have experience with the thing?
Yes, I would also like to play ball with all the, uh, NBA,
when that's sort of a new season, but I won't be able to.
But you're never, you're never going to get a fighting game that is going to
put you on the same level of people that have experience.
It's never going to happen
It's legit impossible and if you make the game even easier it makes the game even easier for the
Propressional players to make it so that you never get the play
Well, that's just the way it works
I
Want to do
Titan Conquest
If you don't like it, you don't like it.
However, I won't hear the criticism that like there's too many mechanics in this game when
literally Street Fighter 6 has even more mechanics.
Like there's even more core fundamental mechanics around all the green shit in Street Fighter
6.
The this beats that, that beats this, this beats this, that beats that.
type of shit all over the place so and that game is stupid successful with
casuals. I don't it has even more shit that you can do like across the board.
The way you're going about selling it to people I'm not trying to I'm not selling
it to what does it look you think I'm selling it to people is if this stuff
that we're discovering right now is not cool, but like that stuff looks intimidating. Is
that the idea? That the stuff we're looking at right now is actually intimidating and scary?
Then just play at low ranks, dude! Like you don't have to pick hardcore when you jump
online. You don't! You just start off at the lower ranks with everybody else. I think
I think it's rigged rating, yeah, I'm done.
I'm done.
I find this stuff cool, so I will be playing it that way.
I find it fun to do this up.
I think mechanical engagement with games
is I've always incentivized and wanted people
to learn how to play the games they are playing,
to learn what you're doing instead of just face rolling.
So, you know.
Says that, and then says, yes, in case too hard.
Bitch, I literally...
Let's just start banning people.
Just start banning people.
Let's get rid of you.
Literally, Fatal Fury is...
I'll play Fatal Fury more than Street Fighter 6.
What the fuck are you talking about?
You guys are drunk.
You're ruining my night.
You guys are drunk and you're ruining my night.
There's nothing in Fatal Fury that's actually that hard either.
Outside of like the literal third strike perfect parry like what the fuck you guys are just making shit up
Truly if you don't like this shit go away like that's it you just need to go away or I'll get rid of you
Like what are you doing here?
That's that's my question. What are you doing here? Why are you engaging with this shit?
If you don't like it, just go- just stop engaging with it.
It's that easy.
There's a lot of us that really like it.
So that's the-
That's who I'm gonna be talking to.
And you can either just wait for another stream for something to happen or just go away!
Every game, man.
Tekken, Street Fighter, SNK, this, every fuck-
an old game, played third strike, just go away.
Um, although I will say, if you do come in your chat, and you just, we're all having fun
and talking about something, and you come in and you just start like, immediately, uh,
hating on some shit for the sake of heading, not, not providing an opinion with validation,
like an opinion that, I didn't like this that much.
Well, that's fine.
Like, you, you can not like this very much.
I get that.
But if you keep trying to get other people to agree with you and shit like that, well,
we're all having fun, I'm just gonna get rid of you.
It's like we're all here having a conversation with each other in a little circle, and we're
having a good time, and then somebody comes in and this shit sucks, I'm just gonna get
rid of you.
I'm not going to entertain that.
I'd prefer to not have your engagement for me to have better mental health, you
know?
I would just prefer that.
I'd rather have the mental health than the engagement.
I don't need the monetization from that, from you watching and being a viewer, I'm just gonna get rid of you.
And most of the time I'm gonna make it so that you can't even watch the stream.
Which is like the cool shit that Twitch can do. At least on Twitch I can make it so that you can't even watch the stream anymore.
I would prefer that on YouTube. But I can't do that on YouTube.
I would really prefer that.
Anyway, um...
Goddamn, that put me in a bad mood. Fuck.
This shit put me in a bad mood. Just say you don't like it and go away.
What the fuck, man?
Like, having fun with the game as a fighting game is like, removing the enjoyment of low-level
players somehow.
Bitch, I'm literally the mega advocate for low-level players.
Like, although I am not the advocate for true casuals, I'm the advocate for people
to actually understand what you're doing.
I don't want you to face roll, I want you to have fun with it.
I want you to understand why it's cool, because you'll get into other games that do cool shit.
That's been my stance for literally over a decade.
Hold on a second.
Can I boost dash cancel this?
I can't.
You can't get this in the air.
Get it in the air.
I can.
Okay, I can't do that.
That cancels into it.
So I only get this.
Okay.
Okay.
Let's go.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Let's get in.
Teeze the new character.
They showed Robert.
Pretty good.
Let's go. Okay. Okay. Okay.
Has to get in and tease a new character. They showed Robert. And pretty much as Robert.
Does air boost dash cancel off a neutral assist as well? I don't...
It does.
Oh, fuck it does, dude.
He's down there. He's literally down there. That is mega tech.
Um, they having a touchdown trying to do a DP in this game?
Cause they're not invincible. None of them are invincible.
They don't have startup or they don't have startup invulnerability.
They have armor after a few frames.
So if you're trying to do like DP's mid string and shit,
It doesn't exist. It didn't exist in the beta. People were just...
People just didn't lab anything.
I think it's the reverse dash.
The input is dropped.
Show me your rage. Show me your rage. Show me your rage. Yes!
I want more!
Show me your rage. Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
Yes!
More of this.
It was rough in the beta this feels
This feels like a launch Street Fighter 5 uppercut. Oh, I'm sorry long Street Fighter 6 uppercut
Right
Yeah, it feels like a long 300-6 uppercut.
Yeah.
Two-two-three work. Down four, down four, does not work.
DPS is down special, yes, when you aren't doing, this is why there is a direct incentivization
for playing motion inputs because you can literally mash a DP super in the middle of
strings and that's good.
It's actually very good.
Also very good in M3.
But you can.
On motion inputs, it's significantly harder.
it's way harder
I wish
I'm gonna duck on that, thank you
of
the
that's what that is
that's what that is
My attack buddy!
Aha! I found it!
Oh, he's your dasher! That's right!
Can I charge this?
Wow, he doesn't look fullscreen projectile without having to do that.
Whoa!
That re- that- okay I found a re-stand.
I found an actual re-stand.
Here we go.
He has to, his feet have to hit the ground.
There it is.
There it is.
It's a legit re-stand.
So, at that point...
Oh my God.
At that point, you just let them slide the whole way and they don't get the wake-up
timing
Come on brothers
Hey, I might as well set up medium medium
Medium, mash medium, down medium, first hit, cancel into heavy charge, and then it puts you in restance state.
Come on.
Wow, okay.
So with restance state,
I I now get another mix up for free because I can do I need you to block after being hit
block action as I can I do you after hit
Wow!
Okay, I could delay it.
Okay, so then I have to delay it a little bit and that turns into a hard to blockable again.
We're back without having to spend the meter on like the EX thing, you know?
Our assist mid's only this
These are
That's an overhead low right there
If they mash heroic on reset would you have to respect it?
But I could just delay like a jab.
That makes it so that the heroic strike is a lot harder to deal with, right?
Because it doesn't leave much block, son.
It's harder to deal with harder execution, but the mixup opportunity is better.
Yeah. Okay. Okay. Cool. Um, I like Titan. I think he's pretty neat. Let me see, uh, let's
check some frames general I need to go back to dummy first hit lock state all
okay now thank you I think a lot of a shit is unsafe though that's what I was
We are messing around with him with the dudes.
That's a stupid move to do.
Okay, you never want to do this in neutral.
It's combo only.
Getting better.
minus 13. Not worth it. It's a hit grab. Yeah. This is good to do. If you lose your turn.
X-Rock is like plus nine. Yeah, yeah. Rock is good.
Funny funny
It doesn't work in the fucking corner
It's up.
Okay.
I use the motion controls across.
Man, I am.
I'm very stuck.
I'm like really, really stuck.
You boosted rock top in uppercut.
I want the pieces to hit them.
I want the pieces.
I'm bad.
the
damage doesn't collide with those shitheads
can you move up to the overhead setup at all
uh... i think so
That's a tough set up.
Wow.
Hold up, hold up.
Hold up, hold up!
It's like a jump cancel, but not a jump cancel.
Um...
Hmm...
Yeah, like the Krillin Rock set up, exactly.
He doesn't have an utility super, I think he doesn't. Okay.
I'm looking at frames, hold on.
That's really bad.
Okay, all these suck.
But, you're at a jab range.
Most characters are gonna be on a jab range.
Wow.
True. That's true.
I think his charge moves are actually plus.
This is plus two.
You're going into crazy shit.
that's plus two on the corner this is plus nine yeah so that's a very good
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Let's go ahead and wrap this up.
Say goodbye.
That's going to do a shit time.
Oh, that's just as bad as doing the combo.
Put him up.
I'll do such cancel this I can
Check this up John. Did you see this when we when we discovered this a second ago?
So this is gonna end up being really good if you're if you are in here. We found a way to get neutral assists
Without being in combo right sometimes you want the neutral assist. Yeah, BDC neutral
Yeah, this is mad cool.
Into overhead.
Because there's the thing, medium heavy, medium heavy BDC, low overhead, uh, uh, yeah.
Yeah.
For the castle bar it seems fair, yeah, exactly.
Oh my god.
I don't think he's hard to tackle actually that good.
Is it hard to block the wall?
It's hard to block the wall.
I don't know.
I don't know.
We just found it.
Why not even end up being that good?
Why?
Looks cool.
Wow, did this work for him?
I'll put them up!
Stand right there!
That's a man.
Wow
Damn, bro
Nope.
Trying.
Whoa, dude!
Brother so you can do heavy down medium heavy fireball back down medium bounce
I'm trying I'm trying dude
Oh, oh.
So, if you're on too deep down medium, you don't get much.
I
Here
Here
I'll figure it out
Let me try
It's going to take some time, it's going to take some time, I see the vision, I see the vision.
Anyway, yeah, let's get out of here.
I'm going to take Alan off the scene.
Anything going down in EVO right now, chat?
They found a lot of dirt.
They found a lot of ridiculous dirt with tight, which is cool.
Friendly top eight.
I like to play, I like to play as Omni-Man, Mark, but everyone plays Mark so I don't
play him.
Omni-Man, Mark, Conquest, Alan, and potentially Titan.
We'll figure it out.
I don't know who...
Trying to think of what else I gotta do in neutral
with, um, Titan.
What I can do.
Titan.
Okay.
Titan.
It's about to get bloody.
Okay.
The Titan's armor, like tremor, diamond buff, or is it like aghanos?
I don't entirely know.
What does Titan's armor do?
Is it give him armor on some specials and shit?
Is that what it does?
We'll turn him to evo when there's something I really want to watch.
Right now I'm playing a new fighting game. Armor on all specials. Okay.
Okay.
Cool. Kind of like Glacius armor, okay.
Okay.
then reduce damage by like 20%. That's a lot.
Also, so that means you shouldn't be going into training mode against Titan.
Right? So not be going into training mode against Titan. You're gonna,
it's gonna be, you're not looking at actual damage values.
You're looking at Titan damage values.
VF5 is starting, okay.
Yeah, if you want to make sure your combos are really going to kill, you fight against
Titan in training mode.
They're really gonna kill.
57 wins, damn.
Now, are we gonna see the new VF? Probably a 10%. They might say something, but I don't think you're gonna see it there.
We need lobbies with the chat, maybe yeah I'd be down I just want to try some shit.
If this doesn't immediately get us a match we should try.
I haven't actually looked at the lobby system much yet.
It's like the same dude, no, that's the play.
Brr, brr, brr, brr.
Anissa, the jab queen.
Anissa has a Rollento jab in this game, dude.
The AI was doing it to me,
and then I started seeing people do it,
and it's really good.
If you dispense with your notions of heroism,
they mean nothing to me.
I'm not a hero.
I'm just trying to take care of my people.
What is this dashing life on?
Watch your back!
Yeah!
Right on time!
Oh, no.
It worked
It worked. Uh-oh. It actually worked. Now I have two overhead assists, so
More like this definitely should have tagged out. I'm not breaking
You
Want to die
My turn now son
Son?
Son? Child?
I'm gonna hard tag in. Oh, I can't.
Cause everyone's like, cool down.
Okay, no one likes that overhead.
I have infinite copies, all pissed.
Ow!
I'll take a turn with this.
Overhead!
Overhead!
Hit me, I dare you.
Okay, okay, alright alright alright
Alright, alright alright
Eric, like your brother
Titan's pretty fun, pretty fun right at the start
Get the whole stuff out of here, wanna fight
will break your shell like an earthquake destroys your benighted planet
what a description now let's see if you can back it up let's if you can walk back to the
Let's see if he does it again.
I hear son.
I don't like getting shot by Mark.
Oh, unblockable shit.
Rockabull shit?
Damn it!
I'm super
I'm gonna die for it
Couldn't DHC after the super?
I wanted to try
I wanted to try
Don't get hit Mark
What was this shit?
I got you.
Come on.
Watch your head, please.
if
if
if
if
if
that's still heavy, but it's not going to do any damage.
Try to keep up!
He's too fast for you!
I've got you!
Now!
Hell yes!
I punched the shit out of that cologne, that's for free!
Watch your head!
Now!
There!
Man!
Oh, why did my Sting not come out?
No attack, no attack, no attack, no attack.
Don't do it, Mark.
Do it
There's a goddamn connection
Sucks
Jesus as soon as I hit him
Well, I can always start over
This situation with
The situation when conquest is really good
But I realized that it's gonna be happening a lot more often because of this overhead assist in general, you know
Now I'm starting to really focus on overhead assist in the timing with a low and you get kind of the hard to blockable offer most situations
So I don't even know if you really need Titan for it. I don't know
I don't have fun with him so far I had to figure it out
87 lengths.
Got the plan.
Another Anissa, was this the same dude?
Was this the same dude?
No.
What's wrong?
Watch your head!
I got you!
Impressive!
Let me try!
What's wrong?
You're over here!
Impressive!
I got it!
Oh, baby, run for your life!
Let me try, asshole!
No!
Joint joint joint!
Get out of here.
I'm gonna tag in.
One good blow from my fist.
I want more!
That sucks.
Yeah, that's another thing.
Just in time.
Idiot.
Hold down back.
This is what I'm...
I don't care why, which is good.
I'm going to enjoy this.
I
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I keep holding down back take out
Do it
Damn it
Mark
Wow EX that doesn't have any vulnerability
I'm gonna lose.
Oh my god.
Why?
Come on in.
Do it again please.
Okay, it's fine. Play it out.
They really just ducked down medium heavy. I think he ducked it. I think this move might
actually suck. I might have to short hop it only or else it's just not active ever.
You don't do invincible punch to me, bro. Don't do it
Yeah
Damn! Wow! Wow! Holy mother of God!
That was crazy. I did in fact kill.
I'm gonna kill my people.
Come on!
Let me try!
I got it!
Time for a team up!
Hello there!
What the hell is this?
,
,
,
,
,
,
,
,
,,
,,
,,
,,
,,
,
No more free block strings, no no no.
No more free block strings, I don't like it.
God damn, wow!
Wow
All the damage gonna suck
Well this is crazy bro I don't know man brother I mean he didn't know but you
could have woke up with a level three but oh shit Titan might be the mixed
lord with one bar he just gets to hold this and then hold the heart of
You must hold, especially in the corner.
Damn, the little thing we labbed, it worked.
It actually worked.
He had to wake up at level 3. That's what he had to do.
That's so mean. I'm spending meter for it!
Yeah, Titan might be slept on a little bit.
Is there any comeback mechanics? Not many.
Characters, when they're the final character left, get more boost.
Could he roll out? No, that's a hard knockdown.
That's the point of it. Is that when you do that super, it doesn't do any damage, but it does a hard knockdown.
See, I have to hold it.
Same dude?
Right, here we go.
Nothing he's not gonna he's not gonna accept that shit anymore
Nice good shit.
He's through this one.
I'm not breaking.
He really went for it.
Not breaking again.
Are you really going for it, brother?
He's really going for it.
doesn't think I'm gonna break okay although he's breaking a lot
I
Wrist it I risked it for the biscuit
I'm not gonna get it.
Okay, we got a game here, boys.
I'm gonna live.
I'm gonna live.
He's gonna pressure me.
I'm gonna try to wake up level three.
I don't think I have the boost gauge.
They all fear me.
You're not for...
I'm not for this.
Fine.
They're ready.
Kill you.
Kill you.
Hello, Beth.
Yes.
I didn't mean to do that. Press the long goddamn button.
Really brother?
Damn it, that shouldn't be working.
That shouldn't be working what it is. Okay, okay. Here we go. Here we go.
Don't let him do that.
This wasn't most damage I could do to be honest.
Nice Qan-ish.
Oh, I cannot believe I went for down heavy after.
I cannot believe it.
I'm an idiot
Aw, Breaker bait is free. Yeah, you don't need anything for it. I got greedy.
Titan seems really bad and neutral. Feels like he's an assist character.
of the
life
of the death of the
life
of the
I don't know about titan and neutral brother
Yeah
You big beautiful bastard
Slash!
Cool!
Very cool.
Tagging in to this dude is powerful.
Oh my god, do I have to dash pencil this shit?
should begin here
this is such a weird nerve
fun
Yep, yep, yep, neutral wake up. They're not ready for it. They're waiting for roll.
Okay.
It's kind of jump-cancelable. It feels like it's not jump-canceling out. I think I have to hold up instead of up forward.
Just down heavy after the tackle? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What the fuck?
Mark you piece of shit asshole
Oh my god, you would
I
Right to break it
Oh my god, Marcus!
Oh my god, why did that not work?
He woke up with a damn button.
And he woke up with an uppercut that is not invulnerable.
I'm pissed off.
I'm getting hit for it.
I'm pissed off.
Interactions happen too quick.
How much time is left?
Time is left, it feels like I'm losing the scrapping for a while.
That still hits THAT late.
Wow.
THAT late.
Son of a bitch!
I'm going to enjoy this.
Let's go.
Let's go.
We got him.
It's possible to kill you twice, I will.
Oh yeah, boom, boom, bam!
Dude, people are not ready for boost dash forward low.
They're trying to play footsies and shit
and they are not ready for boost dash forward
into a low or a throw.
Yo, Dragon Sky, thank you.
I think we're still matching.
Armored Specials are winning you a lot of games.
They should.
They don't have startup.
If you try to mash it, they will not give you the results you want, but if you put them with proper timing, yeah, yeah
Now I've only played like 25 total games
Yeah, I love conquest as a character. I think he's mad cool. He reminds me a lot of SuperBaby or sorry SuperBrilli
just a randomize once
who another one
there's another one
I
Always wanted
Damn he's all bricked up
It's up.
It's up.
Shit!
Get over here.
I got you.
It's let me drop.
Time for a lesson.
Nice Kramatite.
Damn! These assists are doing work for him.
Come on!
Come on!
Maaah!
Yes!
This will only make me fight harder!
What?
I'm looking at the wrong goddamn meter, brother.
I was looking at his meter because we switched sides.
Geez.
Looking at his bar.
Well, if he's gonna do that with Battle Beasts, then I have an idea.
Do it again, dude, please. Do it again.
Need help?
Do it again. Do you have a combo?
Hit me.
I'm doing this.
That's bad.
That's extra bad.
Dude, that damn Cecilus is just god here.
Okay, let's go ahead and wrap this up.
Die, bitch!
Die, bitch!
Ugh!
Say goodbye.
You've really done it this time.
So if he does jumping projectile, I'm dash-forwarding in.
Watch it!
Hit him in the head!
Okay, clean that one up.
Clean it up.
Yeah, Okie's nasty when you can combo into it.
I don't think I have a true stun on, um, I want to do a stage transition.
I don't think I have a true stun on this guy.
I got you.
I love that.
Seriously.
Keep your hands.
Yes, yes.
Nice capital pressure.
man this guy does not know what to do
Thank you.
I got it.
Get over here.
Now we're getting...
happy.
My...
time's up.
There!
Ha ha!
This dude only lets his assist do work.
Hell no.
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
This dude only lets his assist do work.
This is good.
Let's do this.
Watch it.
Watch it.
Watch it.
Watch it.
Time for a lesson.
Yeah, there we go. It feels good. It feels good.
You
Come to me
I
Know my ass kicked
Yeah
Aha, there we go. Okay. I know how to hold crunch. Damn, he's pissed. What happens now?
Huh?
and
two
years
and
one
year
the care what happens now
, that crunch was just so
set
as many big ass assist to work
what happens now
.
I got an happy birthday.
Happy birthdays are kind of hard to get like getting the character to juggle and stay juggled
is kind of hard.
Yo, what's up, Kenny?
What do you spend for a strike?
Yellow shit.
I don't know.
I found my team yet.
I'm playing.
I have a team that is good that is really good, but I'm roaming around right now
I think I said in a motion definitely on motion
Okay, let's see if he does something right at the start.
Oh my goodness.
Holy fucking nipples, dude.
This is insane.
Dude, you're on a wired connection.
What's wrong?
Are you playing from a microwave?
Holy shit.
We're not done yet.
Oh, so if he thinks he's an asshole.
In this connection, if he thinks he's an asshole.
Oh my god, dude.
This guy is literally playing from his Samsung SmartFridge.
Now you really made me mad.
Holy shit.
I was blocking.
Holy fuck.
Holy fuck.
Nothing's even working.
Dude! This is fucking stupid!
This is fucking stupid!
Alright.
This should not be allowed. You should be banned. You should never be able to play anything ever again.
Holy shit.
I can't even do a spe- I can't even do a special.
Fireball port's not coming out.
Oh my god dude, this is awful.
This is awful.
This is actually the worst connection I think I've ever seen.
For a very long time.
Is it gonna be the faint again?
How'd I know?
I can't do super, I can't do super!
It's dropping inputs like crazy, dawg.
I'm gonna win this shit.
I'm winning this shit.
Aw, I'm not winning this shit.
Oh, dog.
Dog.
This is insane.
This can't be wired.
inputs bro every time I hit them drop inputs like crazy you have nothing without
get in. You have a projectile.
He likes working. Yeah.
Here comes his wake up level 3 chat. You ready?
I have to make sure I don't play him again.
Make sure that shit triggered the shit out of me, dude.
I can't mash. Holy shit dude. Can we like... is it possible that we can blacklist people?
Does that exist?
Crazyware, thank you. Was it intentional? Um, is this the same guy, Chat?
Chat, is this the same guy?
No? Okay. That was a big attention to the name.
Holy fudge, that was awful.
It only started lagging like crazy when I- when I got hit.
shit gave me mad anxiety dude
one of the buy costumes right
Man, can't believe this shit.
I did something.
Dude, this down-and-move SUCKS.
It SUCKS.
It's really bad.
I got him!
I got him!
Ready for B-3?
So are you!
Get me!
Get out of here!
Fuck your back!
All right!
Be quick!
Hold it!
Damn, doing supers on block, okay.
This is bad.
Oh no, no level 3 game.
No god damn level 3.
Okay.
Okay.
I love the cursing dude.
The cursing shit is my favorite part.
I'll fucking kill you.
It's my favorite shit.
Alright, so I think I need to tag out.
I need to actually use Titan the way he should be used, which is as a tag in a character for Okie.
That's insane that the buttons didn't come out.
Oh my god. No break!
Oh wow.
This is winning a lot of neutral.
Whoa! Random EX.
Damn, that shit is far dog!
Okay, okay, I have to get used to what Tula is doing.
Why in the break?
Holy shit, that might be why.
of
the
one
of the
one
of
going to hide? Oh they should.
Oh my god dude why the hell did I get the wrong special?
This is actually a wrong special.
Nice. Goddamn.
This is super good.
He is not doing any things or anything. It's only the tag the entire time.
Yeah, Thula's got hell of a big range.
Holy fuck dude, what's with everybody when I get a hit it drops like crazy
Bro like
Every time I land a hit I don't get it. I don't get it
Last two people I think I need to do something
I need to do something to the last two opponents both of them were like every time I got a hit
that shit would drop into like 150 MS and go to red.
God damn, Mortal Kombat players.
How do I look up what my previous matches were?
Is there any way to do it?
We have to see if we can like not fight people anymore.
Extra as replays, okay.
That shit wasn't even happening to me in the beta, not that bad.
Recents, YouTube profile, block, okay good, thank god.
Okay, great. We don't have to fight him again. Wonderful. Wonderful.
So glad they have that.
That shit was frustrating, dude. Holy shit. That shit was frustrating. That was insanely
Hard to play
This one's gonna be good, that's what's gonna happen this one's gonna be good
You fucked up a lot of cities
I do not believe this is your city anymore it belongs to Viltrum
There's really not the one to play like neutral with.
I got locked up. I got locked up. Wow, it's so much better when the connection's good.
holy hell
No, Titan, you dumb piece of shit.
Okay, Titan is not super easy to use, man.
You gotta get the hang of this shit.
I will
This is what
This kills promise me you go for the kill
Don't do EX at the start bro.
I do backdashing like an absolute asshole after what things that I'm negative.
I
Do god dammit
Oh bro brother, okay fine
They're getting killed.
I'm gonna live.
It's gonna hurt a lot, but I'm gonna live.
because he didn't he was uh trying to live and he wanted to like take as much time as he possibly could
to uh survive and it didn't work he saw the end was inside and wanted to live a little bit more
bye bye no bye bye
This isn't your city anymore. It belongs to Viltro.
Exactly.
It's up.
It's up.
It's here.
It's here.
It's here.
It's here.
Come on.
Hello there.
Seriously?

Man that really sucks
Okay, okay, it's fine
Oh

Yes, yes, I'm gonna kill you I'm gonna kill you painfully
I'm sorry.
I think I have armor.
Okay.
Alright, I have one...
One Titan left now, I guess.
Armor versus armor.
I didn't even know if I...
I'm rocked up yet.
I don't know how to hold up.
Mile bricked up?
I don't know.
We're gonna find out.
Ow.

Let's go kill his ass.
Come on, you're gonna kill him with one punch.
Alright.
I ain't no way.
I ain't no way.
Way.
Very way.
Titan's kind of hard mode.
He has some shit, but only if you get the shit to work.
You know?
Um, exit.
Ah, let's do this.
I really feel like he is, uh, supposed to be in the middle.
Man, pink conquest feels kind of hard.
Yeah, we have any pink squad.
the color buff.
I'm trying different squads each day.
I don't know.
I'm just playing characters.
Titan's 50-50, Titan has a 50-50?
What?
He does?
I guess he can do overhead.
unblocked
I
Man Titan.
Watch.
Ow.
Ow.
Ow.
We fast dickheads!
He's taking the shit out of that guy.
I'm going off this.
No, I don't like that nice
Oh
That's another dead that the shit's on the damage
The site now an armored command grab run no here's no command grab
Oh god! Oh god!
Oh my god, he's late, he's late, he's late, okay.
Okay, on the guy.
Okay, okay, that's great.
I feel bad.
That's what I found twice now.
Okay, that was exactly what I wanted.
I wanted to do instant jumping DP.
That was exactly what I wanted to do, Chad.
Did you know?
But I wanted instant jumping or DP instead of fireball back
Shit motion inputs come with a price in this game brother
Then come with a price
After all I've done you still think you can threaten me
What the f**k is happening?
I don't like that, can we do anything else?
Holy shit! Still hit me! That's insane. Insane that it's still hit me. Aw, I'm not getting
encounters. It sucks. Everything sucks, Jack. Everything sucks. Everything sucks.
I'm not gonna rush until I kill you! Come on!
Oh my god, I hate it, I hate it.
I hit it, I got the hit and it just dropped.
I'm holding back please, please
Why did that whish dog Oh my God dude I don't get it man I don't get it
I legit don't- I don't get it. Like sometimes I'm just getting hit by shit.
I'm not gonna rest until I kill you!
I'm just way off the top!
I'm- I'm so confused. I'm legit confused.
I don't understand it. I'm just sitting here holding back and down back, and I'm just getting hit.
It's like, what the fuck? I don't get it!
I need to go back and check the replay.
of
the row
uh what we're hard knocked down
dude my attacks are so late
not cooked man
holy shit holy shit okay move move it's fine
That was only two frames rollback two frames delay. I don't get it. I don't get it
Please watch the replay because I swear this is happening to you, too. I don't get it
I legit don't understand that shit was fucking crazy
Exit Q
That was very weird
Like it was like it was like like I was jumping or something so it's catching me in jump frames
I don't know but I like wasn't I was just moving from down back to back and it was hitting me with mids. I was like I
I was literally holding back and down back and not even the lows were hitting me I don't understand it
it was I I have to go back and look to see what the heck was going on
I want to see if it's like half me pressing buttons or jump or some shit.
jittering like crazy. That's rough, dude.
Man, history doesn't work.
There we go.
oh my god chat oh my god bro what is
That also dropped, which was hella weird.
I wonder if it's something where the input buffer gets too filled and it doesn't know
what the fuck to do.
Like I'm legit curious.
I'm like legit curious, like if the input buffer is too filled up it just doesn't
know what to do. Because that happens in robot games chat like in robot games if too many
inputs overload the the the input buffer on the interpreter it can like freak the connection
out that happens in a lot of games. It's just that not that many inputs are sent through
Maybe it's just very sensitive.
I don't know.
The last two connections we've played have been...
...squirrely.
That's been squirrely.
Okay.
I just want to get a good connection.
I just want to get like something that's truly solid.
There's no connection filter, unfortunately.
90ms ping is not difficult.
Like that's not a thing that should be a problem, you know?
For rollback net care, that shouldn't be a problem.
I've had like a couple good connections at the beginning and then everything has been
really rough since then.
I don't get it how people are playing this under Wi-Fi on PC.
I don't get it.
I think I want to hear about how lonely you are again.
That was part of that Mark can do a thing that like is so goddamn fast.
That the rollback cannot keep up like that.
I did back throw and I didn't get shit.
Oh my god
Yeah this shit is fucked
This shit, I don't, this shit is
I don't fucking I don't fucking get it. I don't fucking get it. I
Don't get it. We cannot get a good connection tonight. Am I dropping frames is some shit. I am not
I know every single game
Is it the servers? Well, these are the server is matching us, but the game itself is
is peer-to-peer, most likely.
How about this?
No more cross play.
No more cross play.
Let's try that.
For my sanity.
It's peer-to-peer.
That's how fighting games work, my dude.
All of them.
The only one that doesn't is technically 2xKL.
Oh, one of y'all new ones.
That's peer-to-peer.
It means that you connect to the other person directly, no in-between.
There's no server that goes through a dozen ping to some server in Idaho and then get you
in between each other.
No, peer-to-peer means it's just a straight line from wherever the person is to you.
Mr. Miyagi, thank you.
Now it's not working at all.
Okay, well that's not happening.
Doesn't make any sense.
All right, restarted the game.
No, I don't know why that would do anything.
You just restart the queue.
You know?
Just restart the queue.
Okay, here we go.
Only one of those options works for me.
I
Okay, this is much more stable like way more we're just playing the game
Oh
Okay
Okay, yes this time I won't just lock you up
Let's go ahead and wrap this up.
My turn.
It's my turn.
Say goodbye.
Bawww!
Cool.
Different circumstances.
Could have worked together.
Oh, yeah.
You know, Moon, thanks for the gift set, dude.
The mad Viltramite! I hope you live up to your reputation!
Eh, there's no one saner. I just know what my purpose is.
He jumped out of the jab.
Goddamn, I'm hitting these buttons.
Oh my god.
I can't believe that hippie assisted me, not her.
You know.
Show me your age.
Show me your age.
I'm a, uh, trying not to out them.
No, no kids can come into the bar.
I don't know why I got dp there, upper fail, he has to tag, dude I am pressing push block
Nothing's happening. It must have been completely out of meter
Don't do this.
Oh my god, my button.
this is so stop right there
That's insane. Omni member the fuck are you?
Nice. Dude, my assist would not come out forever. Watch it. He's an at-the-tie game.
Uh, I don't...
Shit, my shit.
Shit.
I like him a lot, getting good with him and stuff.
He's got good combo damage, but you know, you gotta work at it.
Overhead
Oh my god, oh really no neutral man
Is that an overhand?
Once we attack him.
My ass is sliding there bro, did you see that?
Hold Omni, man. He's on the right position. Nothing happened.
Oh, there's more on deck.
Now you've really made me bad.
I'm ready when you are.
Man, here you are, that's a buddy.
Interesting that doesn't work.
Oh my god.
Dude, how are these Jabs hitting me?
Like really?
Like we're for healing.
I am holding this button down and nothing's happening.
Okay. Okay.
Ah, damn, from the dark, damn! Jesus!
And I think I just got to be more careful around Elemental.
Crouching light goes for some reason 10 miles in front of her body
It's really good her low is insane
I do feel like there is some moments when you play this game online where the inputs
are a little weird they're a little weird you know figuring out what's good and why
what's good a little you gotta get a hang of it you gotta get the hang of it
you won't be able to best me without your witch
If we were the last two people in the universe, I'd always win.
This is good.
I just can't call that out in one block.
Let's do this.
Now.
Holy shit, why would you do that from full screen?
Hopefully there's one here.
Fine, bro.
the
the
This is good.
Okay.
You are going to pay.
Okay, you are going to pay.
Stone cannot think where's battle beads.
I got it.
I'm gonna do it
so where the hell why was I so fighting the guy down there what was he doing
Ouch! Ouch!
I did not fucking move!
I'm not.
I'm not.
No.
No.
No.
Shit did not work.
The shit you did is not okay.
That's it.
I think he might actually be dead. No, he has the damage reduction on. He might not be
dead. I'll shut the hell up. I don't think it works. I don't think it works. I'll shut
the hell up nope that's not working if he has damage reduction it's not working
it's currently inoperable nope nope that ain't working so much for that rock
shit. We're all little threes to five billion damage up. They're very good. They're like
It's ridiculously good.
Bihaku, thank you, just a Kevin.
Arrow Hydras, Max McDowell, anonymous thanks for the gift subs.
And Moonflower, thanks for the vibe earlier.
Impulsive Magician and Turk Drifter,
Stockwall, thanks dudes.
119 wins, god damn.
God damn.
Get ready.
the
No
Man
Yes
Goddamn smash the smash
Okay, here.
Here.
She's definitely walking and waking up with armor to start, right?
Oh
Okay, yes, we'll try and shit here
You get it.
I'm trying shit out here.
No crossplay, turning crossplay off for some reason has resulted in better connections.
I don't know if it's anything to do with it, but yeah.
Ah, yes! This is going to be the best day I've had in a long time.
I don't know where the fuck you came from, but bring it on!
Damn, I messed up.
It's not as uninvolvable Chad, it can't be me.
Yeah, that's enough of that.
This hurts I'm losing on the man this hurts diet time
I cannot get the follow-up for the life of me
Nice.
Nice.
Nice.
Nice.
Oh my God, does that have armor?
I got the head, I didn't mess it up.
That was really weird.
Weird interaction.
Diet time.
Now you really made me bad.
Okay.
Let's smashy smashy!
More! More!
Oh my god, I just got hit.
I just got hit.
Good shit.
I just got hit.
Blah!
The only follow-up to get bricked up with Titan is a hard knockdown. That's it.
It's the point of it.
Well, I can tighten he feels like a struggle. Yeah, and he feels like kind of a struggle character.
He has cool setups and shit like that, but you have to work really hard for it.
Although the characters can just sort of do it.
Oh
There's holy shit armor from full-screen just don't dash in on these guys. We'll just start throwing it out
Again!
Oh my god, did he low profile, my shit?
Oh, what?
That was a complete accident.
Oh
Oh
What the fuck bro
That was doofy.
What the heck?
Oh my god, this did not work.
Oh my god, I got stunned out of nowhere.
What the fuck?
Look at this. Who said...
We're talking out of nowhere. I don't get it.
Not the tagging off the raw tag.
This will only make me fight harder.
Okay, now.
Nice! Holy shit.
What the hell? Bro what the what the what the hell? That was bizarre.
My bad.
I just tried to jab and I literally couldn't punish him.
No punishing.
This is hard for me.
I got screwed brother.
I was hitting you.
Bro, I was hitting you.
I don't get it chat.
He was literally mid combo and it just, I don't, what happened?
Somebody send me a clip, what happened?
I actually got him in a combo, it was three hits and then all of a sudden it just decided
to not work.
What happened?
I need a clip, somebody help me, my fucking brain.
What happened dude?
Is it the first game or second?
What the fuck happened?
I need to know.
How did it pop out? I did LMH and it was it was hitting. I did LMH and it was hitting. I don't get it.
I don't know if I can go to replay and look at what happened. I don't get it. What the fuck happened?
What the fuck happened dude? Can I go to the end?
and
as any recording control
Okay, I don't have frame step, I need to fast forward.
There's no fast forwarding.
There's no fast forwarding.
What the fuck happened, bro? How did it drop?
Was it a spike or some shit?
How did it fucking drop?
I
Not that one not that one that's not the one it was the one that was before it brother. Oh wait. Oh
Was it after there's one that was before it? I
Was hitting you bro, what the fuck
Bro, what the fuck?
I
Thanks, thanks capture card
LM just whiffed I was hitting you I watched it hit I
Watched brother. I watched it hit. I don't get it. I don't fucking get it. I
I don't fucking get it that's just crazy I don't get it did it it might have been a rollback
right that might have been a rollback where it it rolled back on the hit yeah I think it was
because they hit and then suddenly he's able to block. Watch his health bar. Oh, that is
what happened. It literally is what happened. Check it out, Chad. Watch the life
for cover that I hit him with punch him right here medium okay and the life
comes back
so I was right I hit him and I went for the confirmation but visually it didn't
line up that shit was goofy dude I was I felt fucking so robbed I was like
excuse me excuse me what the hell we got to stop playing titan this character is uh is is
something else
gets like a couple of moments and opportunities to do cool stuff but
But, aside of that, I don't know, man.
I don't know.
I'll have to mess around a bit.
Nah, I need a little bit more.
I need to go a little bit more.
You need his armor?
It doesn't even help that much,
because the armor only works on all of his specials,
and all of his specials are unsafe, you know?
Except like one EX one.
Not even that helpful.
You don't get it on like normals.
EX run tackle is safe, but the rest are unsafe.
Okay, so I would just boost dash cancel then, right?
Would that not be better to boost-dash cancel?
You'd do a better mix-up.
I don't believe I didn't get my aerial normal I'm dying
Nice
You want to fight I'll give you
Oh, that's some of the socks.
Oh, no.
This move sucks.
This move sucks.
Okay.
Still working.
Good, I hit her instead of him?
I hit her instead of him.
The MFNATIVE in the delay, online it has two.
Good, I don't want to roll into jab, I'm trying to roll into fireball.
I'm trying.
I'm getting jabs.
This was a bad game.
Okay, Rascaldos, thank you.
I wonder if BetalBeat has any actual invulnerability on his way down. I don't know if he does.
true warrior
Okay
I
Bloody oh my god
Dude, I cannot believe I can't land back throw online. I can't it's too tough
I
It's going a while. It's going a while.
I've turned a blind eye to you for too long.
He had a good game and then I had a good game human should pick better leaders
You see how it do
Those fangs those weapons. I'm starting to hope for some fun here
I
Why did I get it
Nice.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
He's going for fank.
Yeah, that's enough of that.
Sit back down.
Oh boy.
Okay, okay who we promise me
You go for the kill
Wow that actually killed holy shit they did a lot I can't let you do this Nolan
Watch it
Yeah, I cannot believe
This is what I'm here for.
It's not going to fail.
There's absolutely no way.
Absolutely no way.
It feels right.
Here comes the level three.
Take him in.
Okay.
Now level three.
Now level three.
Okay, no level 3.
No level 3.
Woops!
The damage was good.
The damage was indeed good.
and
So if you have five champ popped up too hard and broke his leg I don't know if I want to watch that
I don't know if I want to watch that chat
Did he break his leg confirmed like fracture
He didn't actually break it. Oh, okay. This will explain his ankle or some shit.
But he literally, he probably had, was sitting down and then gave himself a fucking Charlie
horse.
Yeah, that's enough of that.
I'm gonna love this.
You've got enough damage already.
Got you.
I'm going back.
Got you.
Yeah, she doesn't turn around.
Yeah.
Dude my jab goes nowhere. Did you see that? I thought it goes through her goddamn leg.
You wake up jab happens so fast you need to meet you really hard everyone's expecting a roll
So you wake up with jab timing and all of a sudden
So heavy
We're going to roll forward into level 3.
There we go.
And we're getting shooty shot.
Nowhere's shoty shooty shot.
Cool.
You think you're gonna get me?
You might regret it, but bring it on!
Whatever the outcome, I will not regret it if you are a true warrior.
How did that hit me from so far
Oh
Dude you're punching me
Oh my arm and not kick in now I'm gonna die for it
That's the tag right?
It's not time
Okay, so there's no boost gauge
I'm gonna take advantage of this situation
Oh not with this guy unfortunately not going to be able to with this dude.
I can't fucking believe this!
I literally get the hits and nothings!
Oh my god, I can't fucking believe this!
I actually land the hits and for some reason I can't convert them!
This is crazy
Yeah, that's enough of that.
Dude, no wake ups.
That's hard.
Wow, that was a goofy ass round.
That's a really goofy ass round, brother.
Dude, I did!
What's that?
Nice oh my god, dude, I'm not even closer and she's gonna know this down the hell
I watched her get it happened again brother
I can only land so many backfairs and not convert them without losing my goddamn mind losing my goddamn mind
Those fangs, those weapons, I'm starting to hope for some fun here.
If by fun you mean the warrior battle, you shall...
Holy shit.
Oh my god, there's god damn battle beasts.
of
the
What happened?
He failed, but it didn't work.
failed but it didn't work I'm learning fast just saying no to filter
can't mess with the 6 range you just can't
Oh my god, I did DP.
Yeah, that's enough.
Yeah, this shit is crazy.
I'll do her close range jack, it's just fucking bonkers.
It's just fucking bonkers.
Okay.
I don't want to do that.
This move is insane.
She doesn't have to fight against you.
She's a tank.
She's a tank.
Dude, she can just sit behind this thing forever.
I can't punch through it.
That's really good.
She's not strong at all.
She has an entire, like, she has like a literal ages reflector around her all times.
That's really fucking good, man.
You can super dash and jump over it right but she stays on top of it. She doesn't give you anything. You just avoid it, right?
It's like the counter to it seems really hard.
I wonder how the hell you beat it.
And if you jump over her, she just does it again.
Which is really annoying
Yeah, she has Nova's gravimetric pulse, but it doesn't cost any resource like Nova's does
You know
now it soaks other projectiles that's the whole point of it it's a projectile soak but
it isn't just a projectile soak it's physical so it you can't jump into her you can't punch
through it, she hits you.
Armored Run seems to be the only neutral option.
Armored Run.
meter.
You can't break Alice Rock.
Maybe if you armor through it, it doesn't really matter because it's safe
It's
It's safe like you just put it out
It's not like here. It's it's coming up and oh, no, I have to deal with this shit once it's established
It doesn't mean anything. It's like you can run through it, but she's just waiting. She's not in recovery
Feels like you can camp behind it like a lot and how do you get in on somebody, you know?
Death gun, thank you.
Herper higher, thank you.
Shoulder bash is just swall number one, slow as shit.
It's slower than even the other forward rushing and it isn't plus or anything.
just it just runs in and does and does like a mid so anybody that plays this a
little bit they just jump over it once you know you can do it it's just jump
over it the same shit with conquest is forward it's it's a knowledge check
right now it doesn't do anything it's just a mid
this move
I
Did
of
the
I'm going to enjoy this
now you've really made me back
wow
nice compensation
Really? That did not break.
Okay, okay, okay. That did not break.
Not to get hard.
Cool! This guy's actually at the best moment of anybody we've fought.
Cool.
There's a lot of control here.
Cool.
Powerplex is good.
It's just he takes some time because he has all the chest frames and shit.
This guy's definitely the best player we've run into so far.
Oh, you can tell 112 wins to this bitch when he grinded.
defeat conquest is as appropriate as ever as you'll soon see
I got you. Take a minute. I
got you.
Nice.
I got you.
Here. What?
Wow. That's neat. That's how
this is.
Time for a lesson.
He really went for it, okay.
Okay.
He went for it.
Tagging is end up being really good with a lot of guessing.
I
Shit
Damn, that jumping light really hit me in a juggle slot.
Hard.
Ah, the tag hit me, okay.
Oh my god, I thought it was the other one.
I thought it was the other one.
Holy shit.
Oh my god, hit that. I think it was a recovery. That was a recovery. Good shit. Yeah, this
guy was mad good, dude. This dude's playing the game different than everybody else. Playing
a different game than everybody else right now. This is why we need to, uh, we need
to color coat the team so I don't get confused especially on round start my
bitch asked confused
I'm trying right now rex dando thank you paladin thanks for the gift sub mark for
hire appreciate it
Hmm.
Time has had enough. Tough time at these ranks, I tell you what.
Yeah, the light and medium tags are pure guesses, and the game pretty much is tagged for life, right?
It is tagged and yes for life at these ranks now.
Okay, we're red.
Okay, better. How's the neck guard? Been hit or miss?
What the my lie is?
of
the 222 games hold a ship
Maybe? I don't know.
Ah, yes. This is going to be the best day I've had in a long time.
I don't know where the fuck you came from, but bring it on.
Oh my god, I thought it was the other one.
God damn it!
Oh my god, I don't fucking work
Let's do this.
Okay.
Bring it, you big beautiful bastard.
My armor got fucking broken.
This move sucks!
Okay, that's too fast to beat out, sir.
I am pressing the goddamn level 3!
Did I not have it?
No I had it dude.
Level 3 did not come out.
He did not come out.
Dude, even Titan's ground dash is really fucking slow.
Yikes!
Don't do the armor. Don't do it.
He was timing me out, god damn that's the only bad thing about this sudden death, I've
heard this camping so much dude.
Why is he playing like this?
And then I realize he's trying to camp for the time out.
Yeah, I think sudden that's kind of like stronger than stone
Because it kills your characters dude kills your other characters, and I'm like trying to be offensive
You time me out last set as well all the same dudes this sheesh
People really just hold on down back and then time them out and you kill all your other characters
It's like the comeback mechanic
of
the
Let's go.
Now, we're getting
They will win. I will not be.
In fact...
Dude, this move is BALLS.
That moves also balls. Wow.
I really cannot find much on Titan, that's good.
Dude, why the hell do I have armor if it loses everything?
Okay
Okay. This will only make me fight harder.
That's the jacket what I wanted. The uh, one of the insert jugs.
I cannot believe how bad this move is like you can't use the neutral at all I just got
Jab it out of it, dude. They must have no hurt box
Okay, yes, yes
Yeah, the time-off thing is a comeback mechanic, technically.
It's the biggest comeback mechanic because if you're down to one character, you can literally
sit on down back and just run away for like the last 20 seconds and kill the opponent's
other two characters.
I think in theory, it's really cool that, like, yeah, you have to kill each other,
but in practice, when people actually want to win, it's insanely lame.
but it is super lame.
Does it eventually lead to a situation
where like it gives them a chance to win, right?
Yeah, their life gets added to the total.
So it's like, yeah, you have a character with half life,
they have a character with full life,
and then you also run away and then they die.
That also sucks, right?
That also is like shitty,
but it eventually leads to so much waiting
and down backing until it's over, you know?
Yeah, it's very cheesy.
Pac-Man, thank you.
Needs a little bit of tuning.
the
U.S.
Not at all. I can easily beat anything I please.
Thanks, Dad.
Stop doing this!
Now we're getting some
Got me, got a kick to do it
Counter fail
For some reason
I'm listening
Get me, get me, get me, get me
I know this
Oh, no, it doesn't work.
I
Father have that shit with
Bro, how did that shit with
Wait, it's time
God
Dude, what the fuck?!
There are some weird things happening here, brother.
Jesus Christ.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh my god.
this is what I'm here for!
heesh, Titan ain't doin' it man
at these high levels he's not doin' it
I'm going to enjoy this!
not gonna kill, right?
That really sucked that I just lost that interaction.
That really sucked.
So I need him to run into the armor.
No!
This battle isn't yours to win.
Now you really may be bad.
Bro!
Oh no!
Good chat.
Good chat.
That was a good call.
That push block into fireball was a good call.
No, Titan even having armor on does not help him very much.
It doesn't, because it doesn't give him any armor on physical attacks.
It's just specials.
And like I said, most of his specials are unsafe.
I have to figure out which ones might be good for it.
It's just hard.
This guy has pushed blocking a lot though.
Oh
Why is my super
He's always put blocking and running an impressive
I
For a lesson
You're almost a human unless or be
I
Don't know what's here
Oh my god
Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay, one good flow from my fist.
You're that push him so far away.
Good again.
Oh no.
Why do you guys be able to punch through everybody?
Punch through everybody?
All of us?
Come on man, you know you want to do it.
of
the
of
this, the
way
of the acts
That is fucked up. That is fucked up. I think that's fucked up. I should have definitely
won that. I don't believe it, dude. Holy shit. Holy shit. That's fucked up.
this is what I'm here for holy hell I'm going to enjoy this
one
yeah when you're the last character gives all the great health back
as you uh... your your great life your recoverable health back
you're a sorry excuse for a Viltramite
I could be missing both legs and they still pound you to a pulp.
Stat.
Second match!
You're a terrible price for that.
No, why?
I don't have to read it.
I
Don't be one for the tag
Yeah, that's enough.
of
punch the shit out of here all these buttons being pressed
uh punch the shit out of you
Sorry, I was focusing chat.
No!
Nice.
I think it's very good at doing...
Actually, I should be doing roll timing.
It's probably not to be ready for it.
It is always doing neutral timing
It's a wakeup
Now you really made me
of
the
if
if
if
if
if
Okay, my ass is breaker I liked you. You were younger
Where the hell
Okay.
Holy, holy, holy, that was a fun set.
I feel like because of the high requirements of execution in this game, when the inputs
are like, when you're playing online in a funky connection, and it's like, oh, it's
like kind of dropping stuff everywhere once in a while, it gets really frustrating.
It's like, eugh, but you need the connection to be like precise because there is such a
high executional like slipperiness to this game that you have to control and if you don't
have control of it, it's like, oi, oi, you know, like, it's got to be good.
Is it that bullshit zoning on every superhero? No. It looks like injustice, but it's not
injustice.
Close is this the Marvel vs Capcom? If anything, it's like an older MVC like Marvel 2. My hand
is starting to hurt. It's like an older Marvel vs Capcom.
Is it fun for casuals? I mean everything's pretty easy to do. Yeah, I knew it. We're
We're in top 100 already, with like less than 40 games.
Shit.
Oh yeah, that guy was number seven.
That guy that was hella good.
Yeah.
Third Josh is playing the fuck out of this.
Holy hell.
We're making my, 99.
It's 99.
I feel like I'm playing a bit of a struggle team right now.
I don't have any characters with super good assists.
You'd have to get like a Cecil or a robot that have some really god damn good assists.
That was the setup for Stick.
three buttons are light medium assist one bottom three buttons are dash heavy
assistive yeah Eve assist is mad good
it feels odd to play it takes some getting used to satisfying but it takes
I'm getting used to yeah Alan and invincible I'm way better with so I'm
I'm using other characters, trying different teams every night.
You need killing and I'm the one to do it.
What is good?
I see.
Okay.
Okay.
Let's do this.
Here.
Come on, there's a lot of fun though.
Why you can't tag on that?
Oh my god.
Bro, bro, what the fuck is happening?
Oh, he's just doing it at the time.
Okay, I'm not getting my attacks.
Oh
oh
Watch this man
I watched it hit man. You want the connections in the red no wonder wonder. I'm insanely on edge right now
Oh my god!
Nice.
Cool.
The thing indicator isn't before the match, man.
Okay, drop the shell let me see your face
I'm punchin' you.
You care so much, so stupid.
Let's go, buddy!
Let's go!
I was waiting for it!
Alright, Titan come back, let's go!
I'll take it!
I had to do that whole input manually, bitch.
I did that dp input and had to be pure.
If I didn't, I was gonna be screwed.
I'm going to kill him.
I
Want to do that
I really need to tag out
Boy
Here!
Here, take a minute!
Time for a lesson!
Not even trying!
Okay, now...
Get away!
Damn, he was waking up with buttons, and he got smashed!
You care so much, so stupid!
Oh my god, they're jabbing!
Oh my god!
This is getting crazy, chat.
Oh my god, it was that jab.
Holy shit.
oh my god every button of mine every button every button because uh he's the
through the delay
What am I?
Holy fuck holy fuck
Wow, that was mad cool! That was mad cool. I am blown away that he hit it in all the lag.
It's crazy.
I'm going to enjoy this.
Oh, shit.
That was mad cool.
He handed in all that crazy ass lag.
You should have stayed, God Nolan.
Oh, it's still one to one.
Shit.
These are long ass matches, dude.
Regardless, you need killing.
This is all the rollback, it certainly is.
meaty bro it's time someone else took your place
bro oh what the fuck
That's serious!
Dude, you just had another breaker! I don't get it!
There's mine. There's my breaker. Excuse me.
Dude, did you just have two breakers in a row? I don't get it.
Let's go ahead and wrap this up.
It's gonna kill your ass.
It's gonna kill your laggy ass.
Ahhhh!
Don't do the dive!
Here's the buttons on the way down on the way down. Okay
That crunch was just so sad woo wee
Yo, uh dozee keys. Thanks for the tier one obey the dog. That's dearie and mollo appreciate it
I
Case the O'Neill be appreciate it. It's really 37 months
You think it's specials from mark, but there's only three specials from Ark
And it's the same three specials that every character has
Fireball forward fireball back or DP?
Yeah, these matches take a long time.
We're in here for a while, bro.
We're in here for a while.
You seem weaker than I remembered. Too bad. I was looking forward to this fight.
That was your first mistake.
Show me your right. Stay hold.
Let's just kill him.
Let's just kill him!
You guys are fucking dead!
Man!
Holy shit, chat!
I have to stop doing down medium with Titan in the air.
It is actually probably one of the worst moves he has.
Yeah
Oh boy, that was a good call. That was a good call. I was definitely thinking about he
I have to wait for his button so I can do a road strike.
Okay.
Don't do invincible plunge, brother.
Normal controls are the default.
It's either you want to play this game normally or play it hard.
Motion controls are just hard.
God.
Ready.
Damn dude! Never get up the ground! Let's try to get down medium.
Bye guys
Holy shit, dude my my my my my breakers
Yeah, that's enough of that.
I've got buttons every time.
There can only be one of us.
Yeah, that's enough of you.
Damn!
Why would he tag during it?
He tried to break during the super you fall
Oh
Man you got me that time
Yeah, no more commitments or the more things
We
Breakers cost of tags health. I don't think I noticed that has happened. Does it really cost the tags?
Like red life. Is that what's been going on?
That's interesting. That's actually interesting
Okay, we're in about 40 matches so far
the
give them a bunch of red life seeking snack snap back to them,
I got you.
My turn now.
Man is bald mega bald
This is goofy
I'm so working on this bitch
Oh
No armor that's insane. Oh cuz it just lost it
I
Okay, okay, you can't win this
I have to really wait for the big guy, he can't mash it.
That was a good round.
They used that time to break a combo and then tagged into him shortly after and it made
you lose about 20% on Titan, which is interesting.
Let's figure that out.
I'm not afraid of you, I just don't like you.
Nobody does.
I think you're lying.
But if you're not afraid, you should be.
Exactly.
I got you.
My turn now.
My turn.
Come on.
I'm ready when you are.
Don't worry about it.
I'm going to run up and hit the button, but I'm going to stay out.
Wow.
It's crazy how it's working.
The wakeup jab is really working, it's kind of nuts.
The wakeup jab is working, that's really crazy, I hate that it's working.
Come here lady, where are you going?
Where are you going?
Now he's got it! Now he's got it!
Fucks!
I'm going to enjoy this.
See how you like this?
I wasn't even thinking about it.
Because it sucks.
I wasn't even considering it.
Too busy in my own head thinking about the next mixup.
I just got a little free shit.
Shit.
Shit, kicks off.
I
That's all glowy I really wanted to believe you could change
See how you like Dex
I'm not afraid of you. I just don't like you nobody
Think you're lying, but if you're not afraid you should
Yeah, I'm brother
I love it.
Let's do this.
Come on, God.
Give it to me.
Oh, yeah, she's good.
That's a good combo.
This battle isn't yours to win!
Second lot of interlock words to see if we'll do something unsafe.
I
Get really lucky
of
I
Was a button go crazy
Oh
Now your child
Let's go ahead and wrap this shit up.
Let's go.
That felt good.
That felt good.
Honestly, that was a classic.
All right.
In the in the last half, we had a lot of really good games
where the majority of them were not compromised by like funky connections and shit.
And it was really fun.
Like it was really fun.
The second half really enjoyable.
Like, that's the thing is that when this stuff is working good, dude, it's like...
I'm having a great time with this goddamn game, and I'm having a really good time.
Um...
How far do we make it?
How far do we make it?
Where were we at before? I don't even know.
Yeah, we're in top 70 now.
You see yourself sticking to this one? I don't stick with anything, bro.
Um, I'll play it when I play it.
I don't... I don't grind games anymore.
For the sake of grinding. I don't grind. I just have fun. I just play when I have fun
Yeah, you went up like I won like a few games and you go up 20 spots
So it's clear that like in these ranks even top 8,000 I played a few more dude 8,000 is
Eight thousand is literally top 20
So not even that many more matches
It's crazy. I'm not haven't even played that much
Did you see the KOF update trailer? No, not yet.
Battle Beast is one of the best characters in the game. For sure. For sure.
I think he's easily like, if you don't have him on your team, what are you, and you want to win? What are you doing?
What are you doing?
Thing is, I don't want to win only. I want to win while doing weird things and fun shit.
that's the that's the big difference but I think if you want to win battle beast
would be a good call a really good goddamn call let me check something I
want to see if this happens with two different browsers
hold on who's the final team he put in a signal I don't know I don't know I do
not know it probably will not include Titan probably not downloaded firefox I
want to see if firefox has this problem
I want to see if this is like a chrome thing or not watch some ego shit
I
Waiting on ads
Waiting on ads hold on because I haven't logged in
Did men I get eliminated
Okay, let's see this is a full screen this
And see if it doesn't
a very talented multi-gamer. It doesn't! He is like a professional sports gamer as well,
so you know he's not that big. So it doesn't do it on Firefox. Oh, that's a no-go. The
throw! Gotta get a good one. Doesn't do it on Firefox, but if I go to
chris.tv slash evo on here, I full screen it. It's a whole time right there.
Of course it doesn't do it now, you motherfucker. I know it's not really
planned to camp me as much right now. Motherfucker, it doesn't do it now, God damn.
Okay, we're seeing it look at that very phenomenal new show right there like in the state me to get cancelled one for the burn kid
Burn kick of course is buffed right now as well ladies and gentlemen plus one on block for the burn key
Yeah, all right now kills you gonna put in the corner
That is a change from from my right there for a throw now
Now she has to dash up and commit to for a throw loop.
Oh really?
OK.
So no more just walk up and get the easy throw loops going.
I see, I see, I see.
Hey, back to again though.
Even up the rounds, 2 OK.
I mean, a big commitment to the meter here, but yeah.
Can't save it.
Got to stay in this.
Yes indeed, man.
Oh, just drive first.
Adam kills you so with no fear, bro.
The fans here, Casanova actually
gets the big fears from that far away.
I was going to say it.
Wow, the Viper faints, yeah, it's a very easy confirm from there, right?
It was just all about the resources you want to spend, and Castanago gonna spend them all.
Damn, some 50% off that.
Viper does big time damage.
There you go, bro.
That's what I'm talking about, man.
I'm sure about a ton for maybe stuff.
Don't get it, man.
Sometimes this shit is this way.
Yeah, I need to play maybe Luka next time. I'm kinda curious.
He seems like he's very good.
He just did it, didn't it, motherfucker?
Oh
Okay, it's doing it now. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. It's doing it now
Did it again when I what I okay? Okay?
Back to win for straight to advance in a bracket, so we know that he's clutched you can see if we can do it again here
Oh, I tried to like that. I like that right after the minus train
Away
I
Think I think it's a chrome thing. Oh, did it do it again just now it literally did it
That go to black thing is not it
When I opened it
I
Was you a media reversal button only when I opened it not committing to any special
There goes
So bizarre
All right
Dude that walk out of the second hit of the fan and then the OD bird kick to swap sides
He's so in control. Yeah with the bird kick being plus on block now, right?
I
Sorry chat, let's look at this up
You didn't have enough me or the driver's cancel without burning himself out but now oh
It did it all right it did it
I feel like I was onto something with it being an HDCP bug yeah, so this is not a browser thing dude
It's legit not a browser thing
thing. It's like in the graphics card update or some shit. Or in Windows, it happens on
Twitch, it happens on YouTube. As OBS updated recently, it has, it might be a fucking OBS
thing. Let me click on what's new. Release notes. Hold on. New features. Don't know.
legit be an OBS thing deactivated activate capture card then fixed no no no
that's not that's not doing it that's not that's not a browser thing it's like
when you put a browser into full screen now it acts fucking weird
It's like some sort of like DRM is HVCP, they stole this from us.
These bastards stole this from us.
We invented rock paper scissors.
Oh my god.
Re-invented it.
That's so annoying man, that's gotta be annoying for you guys, because it's pasted me off.
It could be an LBS problem, I need to tweet about it and figure out what's happening.
Only happens when you go on full screen.
It could be a random setting.
I gotta figure it out, man.
This wasn't happening before.
No, we did the hard work.
We did all the basic shit, the hard work, acceleration, all that stuff.
We did all that.
Nothing to do with it.
Whole amount of resources right there
I'm gonna jump was actually nice to get over the driver. I still find the throne to the corner
Mmm, that's what I'm talking about before that's what does it cause you know
It's not a why are you fools because it's not happening online you explain this
It's not it's only happening on the capture card
fools
Hopefully everybody at home that ain't me cuz I'm not sure if they came
And everybody's everything is like a I vibe coding now so everything's fucked up
He's always the one that's doing everything he possibly can't to make sure we're all up today crazy dude
Even they're having problems
Everything is a I vibe coding now. So nothing fucking works
street fighter tournament ever in history bro
how do we get to this point here?
Rage quitting invincible versus this kind of world that we experienced the same
I have not had one person rage quit on me
fighting games and what I'm trying to tell for what I have
the rage quitting invincible is the same as any other game
than they first came out
spin the level 3
like you said man the kids are the way they are
that's one of the things that's most underrated
I feel like when it comes to the world of the connections did get better. They did. Yeah, my second half was great
One of the main
Separators is your confidence that you had when it comes to playing up there on that stage
So kids you of course places that it may cost more to keep the AI than higher human being good
I want them to suffer financially first before eventually going back
Want them to suffer financially
before going back to the way it was before and then them realizing man if we just didn't do that we would have saved so much money yeah good
You need to suffer
Because you made all these other people suffer and shit. You need to suffer
Do we anything good happening on evos chat do we know?
When is MK1?
Ha!
Uh, that's never at Evo again.
Maybe on side tournaments.
MK1 is unfortunately cooked.
Tekken 8 top 24.
Uh, Jesus man, all this music was flagging.
All this music is copyrighted to holy shit.
I was checking my previous videos and they're all muted because every single time Evo
Japan went to a commercial. The music was copyright. Nutty.
Hello everybody, my name is Miyaguchi.
Full screen to have it freeze.
Yes, today, before the top 8 starts, I have a simple announcement.
We just updated the Ginty Gear Slive version 2.0, so please take a look at this slide.
So we just updated the 2.0.
Yeah, the EDID thing we've already done.
And we have some update, so please look at the slide.
They're already changing ship?
This announcement is that we'll be having a version 2.01 update that is happening on May 14.
Already a big update?
Yeah, happy chaos, so just gonna remove them.
There's too much of a problem, just remove them.
This update will include some of the previously announced battle balance and behavior adjustments,
bug fixes, and the start of blazing paths.
Thank you for continued support, and please enjoy the finals for Guilty Gear Shrike.
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
It doesn't matter if I maximize the browser window first, let's find out.
That's actually a good test.
Oh my god, even maximizing the browser itself is causing it.
Bro, maximizing the browser.
What about like something else?
Hold up.
It doesn't happen.
Dude, this is definitely some HDCP shit or something.
It does not happen on anything that is not the actual player window, but it's confirmed.
It's definitely some weird-ass HDCP thing.
It only is when there's content that could be like copyrighted or some shit.
It's not a handshake, no, no, no.
It is not on potential like content.
It is not like HTTP checks.
Okay, is this copy written, right?
Is it just to be sort of on or off?
I mean, you don't have control over HTTP
under every single capture guard.
Mine has no control over it.
EDID is a different thing on YouTube too.
Yeah, on YouTube as well.
It's anything with a player.
It's the best
Yes, yes.
We're going to practice.
We're going to practice, okay?
I'm going to practice.
Ready?
Evo Japan!
Guilty Gear!
Guilty Gear!
Nice!
Guilty Gear!
I think it's going to be a good show.
I'm going to wait a little bit.
I'm going to wait a little bit.
I'm going to wait a little bit.
Yeah, it's gotta be a recent software update that mess up with HDCP encoding or some weird shit.
I don't know, man, it's bizarre.
We've tried other browsers, I legit tried Firefox, the same shit happened.
And I'll unfold screen it, and it freezes.
Wild. Actually, wild. Edge worked? I don't know, because eventually, Edge was having the same problem.
It's only on live streams, yeah. Opera did the same thing. It's been like this for like a few streams.
Again, my feed which is coming from the exact same splitter and the other TV,
not uninterrupted. For some reason, it's on this shit.
I should try to roll back OBS, yeah. I actually should.
Edge Chrome Vivaldi and Opera are the same browser nowadays. Yeah, I know.
It's not even Firefox that was doing the same thing.
You know what, I'm willing to test that.
Going to plug it into...
Let's find out if it is the Elgato or not.
Because I'm going to plug the HDMI in into my console capture card, which is neighbor
media.
So, give me a second.
Hold on.
Let's find out.
Let's find out if it's the Elgato thing or not.
a completely different capture card is doing this.
Rah.
Something on the Elgato is Foggin.
Fullscreen?
Something on the Elgato capture card is straight Foggin.
Well, there it is.
Now that capture card's really good.
Um, it is really good.
I just wonder what changed?
What fucking changed?
So bizarre.
Let me go and look at the settings.
I actually have a hacked firmware on it and it never gave me this problem before
I
No one is that we're guilty
I
Want to figure this out chat. I don't know either way we got this right now, so this should be fine. This should be fine
of the
snow working on the
side of the
same capture, boys had
and it's just acting fucking weird
You're good games. Thank you. Keep them slick.
Thank you.
The music's so sad.
Yeah, the thing is, uh,
I don't think it would have updated automatically.
They're never updated.
The game may be a little too much for the players, but I'm sure they'll be able to play it.
So, we have to wait.
But, yeah, I'm going to take it.
Yeah, sure.
I'll make sure to wait.
But we'll have to wait.
Yeah, sure.
I think it's going to be an amazing game.
I think it's going to be an amazing game.
So, let's go.
Let's go!
Yeah, let's go!
And the game is about to begin, and we'll shoot a few frames away.
Let's go.
And the game is about to begin.
It's a Christmas party.
The game is about to begin.
Yeah, let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Oh, yeah, what happened to dark stalkers and shit was there not is there not like soul calibur and dark
stalkers going down right now, yeah, like currently connected capture card is a is a
a neighbor media. My eyes. I've never even been to Japan. What kind of virtue was that
Oh, shit.
So, yeah.
Finally, we've come this far.
I've been watching you since the preliminary match.
It was a great match, but it didn't seem to be a surprise at all.
I've been playing so many games.
I'm not sure what will happen with this top 8.
The characters...
I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it this far.
So it's on production so far after the ownership changes
I have never heard such an obvious bait question
I think it's better to prepare for the next round.
How do you feel about this?
Well...
I want to watch the Token announcement.
Is it tomorrow night?
I think it's tomorrow night, right?
We'll do it together.
We'll meet each other in time.
We'll meet each other in time.
If we only choose one character in one day,
it'll be completely different.
It'll be completely different.
We'll go together in time and get together.
And you have to fight on top of that.
That's right.
Tomorrow at 6.15?
Yish.
Yish.
No, Max, not the burger tacos.
They're not burger tacos.
Oh, and by that, you have a very different character.
That's right.
I think it's the same as the one that's left of the game.
I think it's really the same.
They're open, bitch.
They're open, bitch.
Spicy chicken again.
No, no, no. We're talking deltakos.
These are the fat takos.
They're the fat ass takos, the big fat takos, and they suck.
They're just a bunch of fucking bread.
Yeah, but taco salad
God damn badass tacos
Let's go eat a bunch of pita bread
by the wayside but back in full force along with the bed man from meek and along with the
unica from doram is going to be an exciting show to say the least i hope you are locked and loaded
there yeah truly truly thank you again to every single person who continues to support
guilty gear strive in all of its endeavors it has been so fun to watch this game grow and
watch the community continue to grow as we are going to go straight into the top of the
bob quiet you that man one more time come I come I is going to be our first
player up facing off against you I Geovana a tough matchup from the Geovana
side potentially depending on a carnation of fries but those won't be good by
the time they get to me that's the problem dude you can be more likely
to draw bad hands and not be able to mullig that's getting a new balance up
that I heard that's kind of neat everybody's getting cool that the
game. You know what? Oh, shit. Yeah, 100% right. Like one of the big things that maybe
that means that the next game is not KLF 16. And then you can apply the pressure. Maybe
that means that we're going to be getting a lot more city of the wolves than we thought.
And if you break the next game is actually CVS three, preventing you from building a
lot of meter during the positive bonus. And that goes the same for RC. You really
have to go all to your combo routes. Thanks. Me thing RCs as early as possible. Thanks
Maybe that's Capcom vs. SNK3 in the near future because Capcom, we're sort of waiting on their next fighting announcement, dude.
We're just waiting on it.
Who knows, maybe Capcom's doing that.
For her health and whatnot it actually lingers even after you spin some of the meter
Yes, so Giovanna is definitely gonna be one to look out for maybe she can use that to tank some of the spells
They're gonna be throwing out their way, but right now
Fighters 16
2026
15 is getting an update
More Sam show
We're looking on a new metal slug right now.
All right, back on the stage.
We'll never leave it.
We will never leave it.
Marcellin versus Olson on the Tekken stream, where?
Which stream is it?
Damn.
He's jumping.
Why don't you have a multi-stream like previous?
Why don't you shut the hell up?
Wow, what a side step, holy shit.
The new city of the Wolf's trailer isn't really a trailer, it's a, uh, Robert teaser.
WOW, dude, fucking Ulsan's on the floor!
Rollin' around and shit!
He didn't get walled!
Dude, these motherfuckers are rollin'.
Holy shit.
These dudes are fucking brawling.
I cannot believe that low hit caused a wall squat.
Holy shit, Usan is playing out of his god damn mind, playing out of his fucking mind right now.
Thanks Niko.
Nico
This is so engaging that I forgot to order goddamn tacos
Oh, it's happening again.
Oh, it's happening again.
Oh, it's happening again.
I
Damn what a punish
More heat.
Brother.
I
Changing or taking a break
This would be a choice.
It's happening again where, um, Arslan is switching off the characters he normally plays
Because it feels like people are like training for it. Like, hard.
I'm so cooked. I don't know what to get.
I
Back on the same other stage too
The big one
He's down!
He's down!
He's down!
The enemy is too fast to block the shot!
Ah, nice!
Nice!
He's a great guy!
Uri-san, he's in the middle!
Rocky, are you coming?
He's down!
He's down!
That was a mistake.
The yellow smoke.
Yes, that's right.
From the middle.
Oh, this time he's coming from the front.
He's coming from the back!
He's coming from the back!
He's coming from the front!
This is a good move to attack.
I gotta hate this shit add 9 dots that $10 to get 20% off
Not worth it
Hate when it does that
They always do
Sometimes it's legit worth it, but it's like hey add a little bit more and you're gonna save money
And I was like, oh, okay. Sure.
Oh, no.
You want to eat more food?
I feel like you just spend more money.
It's honestly, smart, because sometimes you're like, all right,
I'll get another border.
The Kankoku Uru-san is in position!
God damn, how is everything hitting?
The fuck is a burger? What do you think it is?
It is. A Borger is a burger when you're really hungry.
It's called a Borger.
It changes.
Wow, he challenged. He actually...challenged it.
Yeah, that's the funny thing about DoorDash is that even DoorDash is not like some multi-billion
dollar company. They're not. Apparently their operating costs are insanely high. The people
that benefit the most from DoorDash are the customers. Crazy enough. Not the people
that our dashers necessarily not even door dashes accompanying weird oh I didn't
want that that's not true at all look it up there's several videos on it they
don't make that much money they're bare they're I think they're unprofitable
some years which leads into the issues where it's like if it might go away it
feels hard to believe because they're too big. Wow.
Full Sun was practicing for that shit.
Wow.
Wow, these Japanese players are playing their asses off right
now. Yeah, it didn't make any sense to me either. I heard it
and I was like, it doesn't make any sense. And I watched the
video and I'm like, oh, I guess that makes sense.
That's fucking weird.
The people that are benefiting the most from delivery
services are actually the customers.
Even though it's expensive.
Oh, Ulsan's Korean chat. Jesus Christ.
Can you quit being so fucking insensitive?
These Korean players are completely whooping ass.
Quit being so goddamn insensitive chat.
Insensitive and unsensitive.
You filthy fucks.
It's good. He's always been good, but he's not like crazy. It's good. The character they got hit really hard in the last patches was Brian Brian
Haven't seen much of the wild though
Need Borger
Dragon Office just anybody Dragon Office an asshole played by assholes. I said it
Yeah, we need a we need to play um geez man so much stuff I keep up with invincible
but we need to play giga dick cyclone you know giga dick cyclone I really want to try out
city of the wolves. Gigadix Cyclone, Chad, do I have to say it again? I have to repeat
myself? Gigadix Cyclone! I actually love the reason why he says gigadix in Japanese.
I love it because he's saying gigantic cyclone and in Japan pronouncing gigantic makes no sense
So how do you say gigantic?
Gigantic
Gigantic cyclone
Pretty goddamn funny, dude
Gigantic Cyclone
Like
Jai gan like it doesn't make any sense
Because that is that is Giga, right?
The problem with English is that things just don't make any fucking sense
So GIGA is Giga, but in Japanese they're
They can
Never get it right
He's playing it one more time.
Kiss my ass.
I am buggin' about what I can do to fix that thing on that capture card, brother.
I am buggin'.
Happens on nothing but browsers.
Fuckin' why?
I would think it would be an HDCP or an EDID issue, but I have tested a bunch of different
EDID settings.
I don't get it.
I don't get it.
No, the Ogato drivers didn't change.
Nothing changed.
Nothing changed.
Someone just hates it.
That specific card has a, has a older firmware before they added a bunch of bloat to it.
I tried switching HDMI cables already. I've already tried that. Dude, it only happens when you put a browser up with Twitter YouTube. It only happens then.
What I'll do, I'll directly connect it to test it out after if it is a thing with my splitter. Could be a splitter thing.
who can be lucky i'm not feeling snarky today they're lucky
Yeah, I have the checking.
out for EDID as the factory default, right? I don't want to set the 4K 60. All the other
The Dipswitch settings are for like 8K HDR with 2 to 7 channel stereo are surround.
Auto downscaling and converting.
Is that happening? Hold on a second. Properties, figure video, video inputs.
Now. There we go.
That's my path.
Reading on the functions of this splitter. Yeah!
current video information is at 4k 60
That's not it
It's not downscaling defending appear somewhere shit
Yeah, the Shaheen is playing from Philadelphia the great nation of Philadelphia
Actually, I just realized it's not the fucking splitter, because it's not happening now.
Right?
It's some- it's- okay, so it could be the splitter, but it's a compatibility issue with the Elgato.
Because it's not happening now.
It is the capture card.
The best thing I can do is directly plug it in next time.
Just only go into the capture card.
Me too. I have a hard time believing that Splitter is going to have an issue with a capture
card. I do. Make any sense. The reason I like that capture card so much, and you guys see
the footage on your end. It is true 60fps. It is sweet ass 60. When I use a different card
it drops frames every once in a while with buggerings or the frame timing is a little off.
The one I'm using right now, um, you'd have to play a game to see how smooth it is but
I can generally use this one for PC. I can always flip it around. I can use this for
PC, I could use the Ogato 4 for console. That would not be a problem.
If you hold CTRL, opening the device settings of the Ogato 4K, you get a few more options. Really?
So, CTRL while opening the device settings.
Well, maybe that's on a newer thing.
I think that's on newer software, or on old one.
I think my utility app is also an older one because when you only get the new utility
apps it will update the firmware so I don't want to do that I'm running the
old one because the old one doesn't have the the bloat ship the software update
for my utility app is 1.7 and if I updated it will update the
firmware automatically because they're all inclusive now but I have I have the
capture card in a spot where it wasn't bad.
1-6 season 4 is 3-5-6, be shown to evo and it'll likely be at Summer Games Fest, it always is.
Season 1...
Season...
I don't know if season 1 was at Summer Games Fest, but season 2 was, as long as Bison
and stuff like that season 3 was is it at the Kenny Omega thing yeah
they can rest can be an SGF there's a chance it could be but will they be I
don't know it's either I think NRS is next game will either be at Summer
games test or it'll be at the game awards I think that those are the first
opportunities for that to happen and if that shit is going to happen
This is a good thing.
I think it's a good thing.
The thing is,
it's a good thing to be a guard.
I think it's a good thing to be a guard.
Maybe it's a slight mistake.
But if it was, it would be a little dangerous.
It would be dangerous if the sliding was possible.
Definitely.
There are some things that we like about it.
Hmmm.
Let's go to the final battle.
in a K-tide
Random time like MK one maybe
MK one was at summer games fast
2023
Came out within like three months dude
There's not a big marketing period for that game
Who's shown in June? It showed up in September
Oh, that's right the first the CG trailer was in May gameplay was in June. Yeah
Yeah, there was a trailer at state of play that showed nothing gameplay wise and then Jeff showed gameplay
They get as a guarantee at this point you mean actual Vega like mask and claw Vega. He's on all the week lists
He better be.
Other characters I don't know about.
Who else?
They're being bisoned too.
Okay, yeah, let's go back to Strive Finals.
These guys are playing that thing fucking aggressively.
White bread toast like she's so lame like I don't know she's incredibly dry like it for guilty gear
It's weird, you know
Characters usually like hyper personality and sort of characters and she's just like
The most flat
She's guys daughter. I mean I get that but that's not a character. That's a that's not a character
Being Kai's daughter isn't a character
She's unseasoned boiled chicken.
She's pasta with water flavor.
She's bland.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
She's bland as shit.
I like her.
I think her gameplay is kind of cool.
Like her weapon and stuff but something about like
Middle name is beige
Elf out though. I'll felt I really like her character, but now I don't like her gameplay as much
Yeah
Where the blind characters enemies where she was insane but the characters and in invincible are like
Suck my ass and then they blow your whole chest off
Like monster girl goes motherfucker when they're being hit and shit and they got characters
I really dig that about that game. Fuck you and I'll punch your head off and shit. It's like, all right
I kind of love this about this, you know
Eat my whole ass and then they they explode you
Everyone's so aggressive and edgy I kind of like
It's it's funny to me
Sit your ass down and not like you're beating the fuck out of you like I kind of like it
Not the whole ass
Yeah, the loud and bombastic aggression people say that that's even more in the game
But like the game is even edgier than the show and I'm like good
is it true actually is that even true is the show not even as edgy as the game
people are good as a pretty goddamn edgy and invincible versus
I'm like this is funny about the same
they already had the guilty-gear announcement they announced a new
patch
to me because it's like she's primarily in the air game is pretty faithful okay
it's not just all about the pop-buster right but we're gonna get to that and the other losers
bracket match right after a quick break please don't go anywhere right here at evil to pay
the robocat trailer oh that could happen
that could happen characters in the game sound like they hate each other all the time exactly
2 competitors are the same. Some run on routine for the chance to win big.
Just fucking die!
Sunday time to rise through the brackets.
Marcelin isn't in losers, he's out apparently.
I don't have any confidence.
However you prepare.
You glad Stripe and its Evo this year? I don't think Stripe is going anywhere bro.
I don't think Giltergear's Stripe is going anywhere. I think it's going to be around for a while.
Oh Niko, where was that link? Oh shit, I forgot to copy it. Oh, shit.
It's happened too much. This active-ass chat room got rid of my link.
Thank you.
Let's really blow this bitch wide open.
This is why he's laughing right now.
Look at why he's laughing.
Blow this bitch wide open, chat.
Here we go.
This is why I have...
Hey!
Going on down here.
Socalibur 1?
Is that IVs?
That looks like IVs Socalibur 1 outfit, brother.
No, it's Socalibur 2.
actually. Keep going! Going.
Oh
Are these guys actually at evo are they just fucking playing?
These dudes these dudes stream all the time I watch them all the time. I
I don't care.
Just say casuals.
Yeah, I think they're just at like an arcade.
This is the usual big one stream exactly exactly
Are these motherfuckers really playing oh my god, why is my brain not processing?
oh
My god chat help me
Not project justice. No. No. No. This is psychic force. Thank you. This is psychic force with no audio
This is a fucking weird game.
Dreamcast game.
Is that the playing arcade hardware?
Psychic Force had an arcade version.
Project Justice.
Nice.
Now we're doing EVO.
Let's see if it's off.
What's better, psychic force or evil zone?
Good question.
Yeah, when's Vsav? I'm kind of curious.
I want to see what high-level Vsav looks like in the year of our lord, you know, 2026.
I haven't watched a lot of it.
Whenever I watch people streaming from Japanese arcades, they are shockingly playing
uh, Vampire Hunter.
They're always playing Dark Slarkers too.
B-Sabs after Strive.
Ooh!
Ooh!
Happening on the stream, more KOFs happening, okay?
Maybe it's gonna get tacos.
Damn, wanna play more invincible, fuck.
Fuck.
I actually wanna play more invincible.
Really do. I want to find my team.
Darksockers is bigger in Japan than Marble vs. Capcom.
No, Darksockers has a following, but...
It's not big.
Like, necessarily. It's amazing.
I'm not downsizing the how good it is, but Darksockers has always been extremely niche.
It's like a hardcore small community. And there's a hardcore small community of people in Japan
that play Marvel vs. Gapcom games. They're legit is.
at evo last year? was that last year?
it was the biggest mbc 2 tournament ever
That's a good amount.
That probably is going to rival even other brand new games.
That was a late-ass cancel.
Uh oh.
Uh oh.
Uh oh.
Uh oh.
Uh oh.
Those are hard
There was no obvious token changes in the recent build outside of some interface stuff
But the vibes are good other people that played it echoed the same stuff that I felt it feels a lot better
Take a lot better. It's actually pretty fun now
The
Sab was the number four game after Guilty Gear Strive.
It's actually kind of amazing.
It's almost the same as Hinata, but the damage is slightly longer than Hinata.
Oh, use the gauge.
However, I'm having fun with the attack.
Yeah
First it wins
Capture is dying.
Hinata was actually a character added to Marvel 3, I think.
Why didn't it just get a skin?
Wow, what a goddamn air combo.
That's the point.
There we go. Oh boy.
Nice.
That's swaps.
We have this whole team. We're never gonna use them.
All right. All right. All right.
What else we got? What's cooking?
8
Let's go to strife
We actually still need to go back to Marvel 3 modded, you know.
We're going to have a different move set, it's going to be Robert Mr. Karate.
It's fun
What we're taking a break
And this capture is looking very smooth
I ain't a sleepy bitch
Yeah, new KOF 15 update is exciting. Did they say it was an entire system-wide update or just a few characters?
I'm playing KOF again. No, if I'm playing SNK stuff, dude, I'm playing Fatal Fury.
I thought KOF 15 was really good. What? I weirdly liked 14 more?
Maybe because 14 was like my first KOF that I put a lot of time into, so it caught me.
Yeah, I don't know. Something about, because it was so like introducing to all those mechanics
and how cool it is. Yeah. I also don't know if I like the way 15 looks like it's weird
dude. K-14 also looks bad but I also don't like the way 15 looks very much either. Looks
like Japanese fortnight in city the rules looks about better I had fun with it though I had
a really good time with you a 15 is a great game it's very much a classic like old game
I mean, it's very fun.
Same old trailer I was like, what are we looking at?
Everybody on break right now.
by you
That one's buffering crazy
Fuck it chat, let's go
Cool.
Been top four.
Oh, was SoCal ever running?
Or was it still in that pause?
of
another plane
There will be a token announcement tomorrow around 6 o'clock p.m. Pacific
I said specifically 6 to 615 and nothing else.
I said nothing else.
My versus my, I almost clicked on that.
Shit.
I'm going to use the IEC.
Sonic and 3DP?
This time, Gile has a return from the target.
I'm happy with that.
The JPL has a B-Hut setting.
The trigger has been strengthened.
It's possible to cancel the attack from the mid-air and mid-punch.
Good news, Chad.
Good news, Chad.
Yes, it's just that the Drive Gauge is coming back, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
It's coming back.
And the Game On hasn't come out yet, but it seems like it's going to continue the game.
Yes, it's probably going to be back in a while. Let's keep watching.
Yes, please.
Takepi has 2 gauge, but it's pretty much pulled out.
Higuchi has 2 gauge, but this one seems to be a no gauge.
What an amazing combo.
Thank you.
If the effect of the Sonic Blade is still there, it will be a bit difficult to see the middle part of the motion.
That's right.
Oh, from the mid-range, Higuchi is in the middle of the river.
Yes, he was in the middle of the river.
Now, from the large-scale type, Takenpi's JP is taking the distance.
Yes!
I'm not gonna get a chance to get through this.
I'm really sorry.
I was just trying to get out of this.
This is where the damage will be.
They give me my goddamn sauce.
The one I just got was...
There it is!
I got a big chance!
So much sauce.
This is where the blade will go.
I can't reach the ice.
And the ice is still not hitting the ice.
I think this is where the ice is.
Yeah, that's right.
I want to make the first move.
Yeah, so this is where you're going to use the rubber?
Wow, Higuchi!
You're going to throw it like this?
Nice attack!
I think he ran away with the first hit with the front-side knee-buzz.
That's right.
That's a pretty good counter-attack.
Oh!
Oh no!
Even if you rush, Higuchi will be able to get in.
The dash knee-buzz is pretty good.
Higuchi is able to get in.
I'm getting close to the safe zone.
From the right.
Rush!
I'm not going to let you go!
I'm going to stop the middle.
Yeah, I'm here.
Now, before the shooting,
even though Higuchi is making it,
Higuchi doesn't have any mistakes there.
Yeah.
What?
This is...
It's a big one.
I think Higuchi is starting to make the pace.
Yeah.
Higuchi is making it.
What's gonna happen?
Shoot the mic.
Where is the distance?
From here...
Throw it...
One bullet...
I can't hit it with this...
I'm dead!
There's no mistake!
My god!
Is this enough?
You did it, right?
Omigoto Higuchi!
Congratulations!
I'm going to score with a 2-0.
Winner's Kakeagari!
That was a great move, Higuchi Gaeru.
I had a place where I could play as usual, but I was bored with the rush, and I was forced to jump.
But I think it was a good content for me to play as usual.
I want you to do your best for the loser side.
I mean I'm curious about it, too.
But, like, vanished.
It like vanished.
It's not out, yeah.
They probably are waiting for Toka.
I've been on the floor for a while now, but I've been on the floor for a long time.
Oh!
It's not the same as before.
Okay, okay, okay.
I think it's a mad for a while ago, yeah.
No, no, no, we'll see when it comes out. I might get one.
They might like sponsor a stream or something and can actually give some impressions on it.
I'm just glad it's an actual arcade stick, I'm not a fucking leverless, sorry.
Dude, the Evo Golden Sticks are leverless, there's no stick!
It's just buttons!
There's no god damn stick!
And then like, here's your golden stick, no stick!
Just buttons!
I've nothing against loverless players, but you guys should rot in hell
But seriously
I'm just kidding
I don't want to make anybody feel bad. I just think you should die in Minecraft
That's it!
This is Del Taco, yes.
I actually, for real, have nothing against it.
I just funded an affront to God in nature.
I'm sorry, Mr. Uke, but...
Yeah, yeah.
And because of that, the road was blocked.
Yeah, yeah.
So it was easy for everyone to hear.
I think it was like, you could have lined up 100 players.
I was just looking at them.
You weren't even lining up?
I was just looking at them.
Yeah.
No, all fighting games are technically better on Lyrilus, dude.
Almost every single one.
It's pretty...
I'm thankful for that.
You want to be honest, like...
There's very few fighting games that would not be amazing on Loverless in comparison.
Signed or something like a secret sign
In various ways
Okay, well it feels weird on the other list probably because of what the input requirement is
About fight pads that's already playing on controller
Everybody places
Granted the entire reason chat that this like my hardware of preference is better than your hardware of preference to play these things
All stems from the mad cats launch of Street Fighter 4
They released cheaper controllers, but very expensive sticks
And by really expensive they were $150 which was just unbelievable
$150 sick that's unbelievable
Anyway
People wanted to justify what they spent on a controller by controller I mean sick
So the idea was
Or you're just a filthy pad player
It is a filthy ass pad player I have a stick golden letters
So that's where that's where that shit mostly comes from
Nowadays, you can't even try to get a $150 stick, man.
You gotta really try.
Sticks are so expensive nowadays.
Yeah, the majority of the best players at the time were on Xbox 360 controllers, dude.
I was going to challenge myself if I knew that, but I'm glad I was able to do it.
I was a little bit excited, but I'm sure I can do it.
I'm going to keep on doing it.
Shut up.
I don't know how, but it works.
It's interesting. It's a bit like a fighting game.
That's right.
I don't have a choice.
Fighting games are a game.
That's right.
It's really...
It's the final battle.
Who was the dude that won with Rose?
Street Fighter IV Evo, with the PS1 controller.
Was it Luffy?
Was that his name?
Not Monkey to Luffy, but Luffy.
French player.
and...
And the loot?
Yes.
It's a young, experienced player.
Yes, the opponent is...
He defeated Korn or Furu.
He's a very giant killing.
He's a player who's been doing this.
Well, this game is Japan.
If we go to Top 8,
I think it's going to be a bit different
from what we're doing at this level.
It's going to be difficult for K.O. to be in the spotlight again.
the spotlight again a little bit games like I don't know that's in case in that
nrs spot where they just released a new game every two to three years
is that is that finals happening right now?
You finally got it.
Jesus fucking Christ.
Have the patience of a saint.
So much fucking patience.
You still has a cool character addition. I don't like shooting very much.
I don't want you to know you're not getting Street Fighter 6 announcements here
Not here was blueberry DLC in this game
Like she was in KOF 14. Oh, I think she was in it by default
She was base roster. Yeah, who Mary's been in the last several games ain't missing out
The check is very fast.
Now, the 10th place.
Every time, the special effects of Gremari come out, so it's very powerful.
But, it's going to die.
It's going to die somehow.
Now, the stamina.
If it's stamina, it's more than one hit.
I can't finish it.
That's right.
What should I do?
Oh!
That was fast.
I'll take this to the other side.
This is the right way.
I'll take this to the other side.
I'll take this to the other side.
Wow, what a punish.
Ash combos.
Oh my god!
Holy shit!
Holy shit!
Last fucking hit, dude.
That shit was crazy.
Wow.
That shit was crazy.
Ash things, yep.
I'm afraid your path ends here.
The Jago finale.
The Grand Final was a game-dash vs. a shit-bottle card.
I haven't dropped the combo yet, but I heard that today's game-dash is really over.
It looks like it's really coming to an end, so I wonder if it's possible to make a move like last time.
I think it's possible to catch up with the Mesh in the first round.
I don't know what's going to happen in this grand final.
Now, EVO Japan 2026, The King of Fighters 50 is also the last match.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
This match is the last.
This year's EVO Japan
KOF champion
will be decided.
The grand final.
Yes.
Well,
the M-dash is on the win-and-side.
I can't say that
the opponent of the M-dash
won't be able to win.
You can take it at that time, and it's a win-win situation.
Well, even if you say you're done, it's not over yet.
We're still in one-life condition, so we have to fight.
I'm going to show you how long combos are hype.
When they're once in a while and not every jab leads to long combo?
Well, long combos are hype when they're hard to do.
That's it. Everybody can do it then. It's not super exciting.
That shit on Ash is not easy.
And that's just it, man. Things were impressive when they're hard to do.
It was impressive as shit to be when I ran into that player tonight.
In invincible that had really crazy aerial accuracy with their characters and a game. That's so slippery
Dude that dude was like
Whoa, like their playstyle was insane
Yeah, it was fun crazy, it's like I've not seen anybody play the game that accurately
Not any, and be offensive and covering, you know, and covering a lot of options.
Like, holy shit.
of this game, dude. Fireball run behind it.
Man, grab the lead to the full combo!
What in the hell?
It's an Ash like to go but Ash doesn't have like the recovery after the projectiles that
like Athena does.
The whole thing is that like you throw a projectile and you walk behind it.
It's hard to watch anything else now yeah, I think Street Fighter 6 overall is
some of like the highest quality like bang for your buck is in terms of overall
most things extremely high quality dude doesn't mean it's the best game but
they're they're trying the hardest like I think that's pretty obvious that like
that the Street Fighter devs are probably trying harder than most and that's
comparable to maybe even what is going down with like Arc System Works games
we're like Arc System Works games were maximum effort type of games
Yeah, I miss fighting games being fast, that's a me too.
I like fighting games being speedy.
No time to dwell on a combo, no time to dwell on a thing, just go.
You know?
Have it be quick and be over.
Street Fighter V Reception lit a fire.
I don't get it, man.
I really do not get how influential Street Fighter V was on this industry.
I don't get it.
It's actually mind-blowing to me.
Like the way Street Fighter V played as a game was so specific, like it's strike-throw nature
was so... like unique, and for some reason just so many games.
It went with a very similar structure of how their game plan would be at like strike-throw
fighting games.
Before like the most strike-throw-y fighting game we got was like Virtual Fighter, which
is like the ultimate strike-throw game, but it's extremely different.
That was hugely influential.
You're fine.
You're just missing one super bar.
You'll figure it out.
I
Invincibles really quick
Nice DP holy shit
This little shit is crazy.
The new Avatar game is definitely on the quick side. It's arguably one of the quickest fighting games out there.
And that's the thing, literally by definition, when a game is faster, it's engaging you more.
You're having to make more active decisions and make more active reactions,
pound for pound, minute to minute, moment to moment, than another game, you know?
You're not sitting here waiting for things to happen, things are happening.
You can't think about what happened before, you need to move forward.
I like that.
It's pretty fucking quick, dude.
Like, forward dashes are unreactable for a lot of characters.
Chad, is it just me? Who's in Losers?
Are we in Losers? We're not in Losers yet, are we?
Is this actual Brands?
This is Grand Finals, right? I'm just saying.
Yeah, Lasset is in Losers. Okay.
So is it reset? I mean, it's grand finals, but you can still have a loser in grand finals.
What I'm trying to say is...
How do you know that?
Is there information on the screen that I'm missing somewhere that says...
That last it is in losers?
It doesn't say L or W, yeah.
That's a little funny. That's a little, uh, that's a little funny.
They don't show anymore. They definitely do.
That's, that's important information.
They definitely do.
But this is a weird production thing? I don't know.
Yeah, this isn't the reset.
That's why I was like, did this reset and I missed it?
Well, here it comes.
There's the reset.
So you thought that was Grand Finals if you were unaware.
Actually, it wasn't. They need to play more now.
I think they're still playing now they're not really close not in casual
Oh
Body can scrub now in this
Alright, that's like the second was Key Luck Sarvantes!
Right
It's like it was Keelik Cervantes final.
Yeah, what's happening with punk right now, hold on.
Yeah, let's watch Keawa.
Yeah, what the hell is that shit happening with DOA 6?
I'm like, didn't that game already have Kula and Mai?
Am I drunk?
Like they were, Kula and Mai, Mai was in DOA 5.
I don't think Kula was in DOA 5?
Yeah, 5 had them.
5 had them both and they came back again.
You have to repurchase them in the new, wait a minute, so you're telling me they're,
even if you had them, so let's say you have DOA 6 and all the DLC, whatever DLC
that was unlisted or whatever.
And then DOA 6 last round happens.
And you have to buy the DLC again.
That's crazy.
You couldn't buy them anymore, right?
But what if you didn't know that?
So is there no like upgrade path from DOA 6 to DOA 6 last round?
Is there like... Not that I really care, I'm just saying.
Because this was a game that nobody really liked.
There's no upgrade path.
Huh.
It's like a completely new SKU.
Like Marvel 3 to Ultimate Marvel 3?
That's a fucking choice bro. That's a choice.
Nice Polish.
No upgrade, no cross play, probably no rollback.
There's not going to be many devs that are good at doing 3D fighting game rollback outside of Venni Namco, dude.
There ain't going to be many virtual fighters out there, but they spent a lot figuring it out, dude.
Like...
I got to hire the Arika guys again.
Hopefully we see VF6 this summer.
I hope so.
I really hope so.
It was kind of insane that nearly a year ago we saw gameplay of VF6 for like the first
time and then that bitch vanished. That bitch vanished. He maxed my invincible. Yes, we got to like top 70.
You think that's about it's been three years since the Sega Reboots reveal.
Yeah, and there's what have we gotten out of that what has actually happened
The Sega reboots reveal happened before virtual fighter. It wasn't even in there. So we got shinobi
But golden axe jet set crazy taxi all missing
All missing
A brief fucking years, dude.
The craziest part is that we were looking at that as me and Simmons were looking at that
stuff when I got the invite.
I was like, oh dude, it's going to be a virtual fighter.
Virtual fighters are going to be in here.
Dude, it wasn't.
VF6 wasn't even included in that shit.
That shit got announced the year, the next year, the following year.
I just want the goddamn crazy taxi game dude.
Nice.
Six years since the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer?
Nah!
Nah, that Kingdom Hearts 4 teaser?
was not six years ago shut up come on that shit was not 2020 bro chill you all know when
that was not then I don't know what the hell it was it was 2022 yeah okay it's been four
years that's six years dude we didn't get the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer when like Final
I don't think it'll be four more years but I don't think that game's coming out till 2028.
And that's probably early
That's probably the earliest
Alive
There's a follow-up.
Wow, the turnaround here.
Holy crap.
The turnaround.
Elder Scrolls 6 trailer was seven years ago.
I remember that.
Yeah.
That was in 2019.
Yep.
A3 2019, the Lord Todd Howard came on the stage and yep I remember that, I remember being
bummed out that there was no Mortal Kombat 11 reveal, it was right before Kyoya did it.
I remember that, I remember that thought distinctly because that was the year I also
moved.
When we first moved to this place, it's crazy that we've lived in this house a year longer
than we have even the previous one, which I felt like we were there forever.
But that's the COVID effects.
Yeah, FF-16 is now old news, dude.
FF-16 came out the same like month as Street Fighter 6.
They're both like three years old now.
And you know, it's crazy
FF 16 is about to be three years old
We really should have Final Fantasy 17
But to be completely honest if things were if things were managed like effectively we should probably have a Final Fantasy 17 within like a three to four year time frame
Instead it's like other things, you know, it's pretty much like the remake series
But granted, Chad, people say you wouldn't do that because of FF7, and it's like motherfucker.
As soon as 16 came out, there were trailers for Rebirth.
Like within the week.
They waited for the game to come out, they waited a whole week, and there was Rebirth
trailers.
That shit happened within like six months.
FF16 comes out and three months later, I'm playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.
Like, they did not stagger that release at all. You got two massive Final Fantasy games within, like,
within literally eight months. It was like, whoa. Holy crap.
I think that was the last big release that Square's had in a while, right?
right like actual big release tactics isn't a big release it's kind of small
damn
so I'm gonna walk the fuck up
That damage is a thing.
Nice.
Damn dude.
Came back.
No, Force Spoken came out.
Yeah, when was Force Spoken?
Was that that long ago?
I can't remember.
The classic reverse sweep.
That was definitely a big expensive game dude.
You might not think it is, but it was. That shit was mega expensive.
It's cooked.
Let's go to guilty gear.
Meekin Boncho onto loser semis
stellar performance here and again that the vines on the player two sides of the paradise came out that was a wild
Lager now I think strangers of paradise was either like 2021 or 2022 that was a while ago
So glad to see you to complain at the high level like this
But unfortunately dorm that isn't going to be one more day of people Japan one of our yeah, it's 2022 players
We'll be making 20 23 hours for smoking again a fan
was it so holy shit did 2023 they released four spoken at the beginning of
the year and then in the middle of the other release confidence is 16 wow so I
guess like in terms of large-scale releases like really big games squares
last really big game was rebirth which is a big fucking game rebirth in 16
And rebirth is more than two years old now
I'm sorry doesn't count like that doesn't count
Damn that's nuts and it's to be completely real that then likely next big
Release game from square like large scale game octopath games are like not that scale, right?
They're not the scale of like
in that winter side of a literal Final Fantasy 7 remake
or a goddamn mainline game.
FF 14 just sort of exists.
You know, I don't know if we count that.
Ever Cold is actually a pretty big deal.
March 4, TY is going to be 8, 10, 9, hatch up for him.
No, life is strange.
That's not really a huge, like these,
I don't know how to put it,
but these aren't like the level of big release,
goddamn, like Square Enix games, like really big games.
how sick we've gotten
how sick everything has gotten to be
we're so, dude, we're so spoiled
how good Guilty Ear has been in the later stages, man
2.0 has delivered perfectly
that's crazy
yeah, it's gonna be a f***ing...
it's not saying the lack of quality
it's like the lack of commitment
those are big commitment f***ing games
since launch
that's kind of crazy that
they're big tentpole releases
that's the best way to put it
big tentpole releases
Like a big 10-pole release would be like a new near-automata game that would be big
That's a big game, you know
Bro, it's literally rebirth and then after that
Maybe part three
Adventures of Elliot, but it's also a small game, you know, it's all like huge, but it's like it's like a 3D 2D
You know or a 2D 3D
of that hoverdash definitely a massive factor in every single matchup for the
character. It's not denouncing its quality it's that like that clearly isn't as much
commitment as like a huge fucking game. Yeah when was when was even the last
Dragon Quest games because those Dragon Quest games are also pretty big. Regardless of which
one she picks the result will be. They're also pretty decently sized. 2017
holy shit. Wow. Be aware of on the Rolodex. We are gonna get straight
into the match not at the lane because now the close last half of 5k keeps her to the ground
There was a DQ remake, but it's like I wouldn't consider a DQ remake to be that maybe it is big
Apparently beating the end of the hover dash
What's having from see you I ride there a little bit jab as well
It's gonna always be coming out and try and check the movement of the arrow
Oh the DP it's that I love it man perfect spacing there not quite the traditional DP you're looking for
Yeah, that's crazy to me that Giovanna is always looking more interesting than Elphel now
She was hella dry
as well letting Daru just roll and not get wall splat because he knew the conversion afterwards with the kill on the wall break with you enough
2k Tatu comes through the end of your turn, but not quite punishable here
But again, we're just challenging in all the right places confidence is key there for Daru
Yeah, just doing a six agent to shrunk the big tree. Yeah, definitely not. Yeah, Tomb Raider is not screening
We'll have the big titles are pretty much in development how I mean it seems that way
Do you think it's where it might be secretly working on a fighting game? They don't have any devs for it, dude
That's why that that's why the city has done even a quote-unquote arena fighter anymore
They ain't even doing that shit
Why is versus punk I want to watch that I want to watch that
Yeah, this is a grand finals match chat
But air guys square didn't even make air guys dude
But is the publisher for it it was made by
Dream Factory was it not made with the same guys who did Bushido blade?
Or is it a different dev?
but it wasn't developed in house.
did not make it. I made Bishido but I'm trying to look it up.
developed by Lightweight.
They made the Kengo series.
Yeah.
Kouta-san, we got a size of square in 1998.
Yeah.
It's not made by square, it was published by them.
The bouncer was made by Square.
It was made by Square.
Damn, this game is looking fast as fuck now, boy.
Wow, final frame.
They didn't check Stripe Top 4.
We would never look at Guilty Gear Stripe or watch matches of it.
It's dead to me.
Until this is over.
They would never take time to watch Guilty Gear Stripe and talk about Unica and the
other characters and these kind of discussions.
We would never do that.
Literally I think that would never happen on this channel. Ever!
God damn!
Okay
Okay
Okay
God damn
These guys are way too good at this, holy shit.
They're way too good at this shit.
Oh my god. Dude, how crazy is it that DI is still good at the highest level? How crazy
is it? I was telling it from the very beginning dude, I'm like this mechanic is fucking brilliant.
It is the perfect timing. It is the chaotic, it is one of the chaotic aspects of the
game that I thought. I didn't think it was going to be Drive Rush. I really didn't. I
didn't think green running was going to be the thing that would actually end up being
the most toxic. It felt like it would be, DI is the, from an early perspective, DI
was like the trailblazing, true chaotic nature of the game. No, it actually isn't, dude.
DI is not nearly as toxic in comparison to drive rush and drive rush cancel, you know?
Yeah, people thought DI was going to be like, focus attack, like raw focus attack canceling,
you know, after the hit.
I find it funny how much DI was like a problem early on,
but even when I go back to Street Fighter 6,
after not really playing much of it for a couple of years,
I find myself able to react to it pretty consistently.
It's just like a mental awareness thing
being around the game it's really not that it's still good it'll work every once
in a while but it's like not as crazy as it was when it first came out
damn punks about to win this shit damn oh he burned himself out
Oh, I fucking get it dude. He got smushed that first game. Holy hell
That was a pretty crazy set. That was like a grand finals match chat
Strives and break oh Arslan Ash
Oh my god, oh my god, John is one head away
Oh my god, oh
Holy shit
Barstlin is in the losers. Yes. He's got one game one set away
Yeah, we'll check out Vsat
Oh
My god damn dude
so shitty king you're a real piece of shit you know that
Wow, that goddamn blocks.
Wow!
No floor break, right?
Didn't matter.
Good luck, good luck breaking that shit.
Is this the world? Oh, Jesus Christ, my dude.
Oh my god, another floor break! Holy shit!
She just can't break any of King's fucking throws.
Oh my god, there's no fucking way! There is no fucking way!
Oh my god!
Wow that was crazy big players are dropping out hard at this at this even
Japan. That was crazy. Holy shit.
Peace out, it's up next.
Hmm
Knuckle do is uh, well that was fun to watch
Stripe a desk
This is fun, I miss this I missed bouncing around in evo Japan or regular even looking forward to evo this year
I miss this
Bringing him into the winners finals while colman chat. Is there any big um, is there any big invincible versus tournaments happening soon?
I know a few were scheduled. I don't know where they are
Isn't that one like next week and you catch this magician someone like a 10k prize pot exactly
This sunday on tns
Okay, it's this sunday. Okay, give people a couple days
What you are is looking to do against Komek Komek, right?
He really adjusted the game plan previously with his opponent wanted to scrap
Asuka is a less of a scrap character
But with the way Komek has been playing is definitely gonna be a little bit in the mud
I'm looking forward to this one winners finals here at even Japan 2026 guilty against drive
Let's get it
Yeah, half the land market 2d is a premiere button in a lot of these matchups here when the players
Damn sin got that much better, huh?
Yeah, Churarras really gotta mark that right. The fact that Komiya has been going to the jump in the corner as the primary defensive option, we gotta try to call that out later.
Oh, one man took his colors away for a second, but it's alright.
Oh, it had chuffed it up, man, and for one more spell, but unfortunately takes one to the dome, which is going to deplete it completely.
And that is going to deplete the rest of the life bar as well.
Kisuke looking like a better pick this time. Now, the first round does go Churarras.
No, there's no DBFC at this EVO. That'd be a side tournament.
tournament
Reaching little car wheel backwards bro gymnastics style sick East case starting on her but
Like that hands to yourself. That is an incredible lesson for the young man there
It's right. Yeah, I know he said I was a little bit older than me, but I'm still
I'm still learning these things myself for science leave run. That's why he put his hands on
In the round well done from sin
And yeah this style this decision from Juarez start with a more scrappy aggressive
Game play has paid off at least in game one. We'll see if Komei is gonna find there be announcements
Uh for this no they already announced it earlier. It is announced a new patch on the 15th
40 may second holy hell dude
still out for lunch here we go on the overhead and continue the pressure that has he has we go for the
dust that had to be a miss throwing joke on his tomorrow around six pacific well whenever it worked
out and now again though using the dp to get out of the gravity mix ups and unfortunately the
gravity ends up being a bit of a detriment this time and dropping the orbit the porting out
of the tip of beat striper finds a home the metro war i immediately go with an overhead of his
here and lock in colombates and feels like to me sin and L felt have
similar game plans where they have like these raw overheads that just leave into
big shit but sins are way better right it's just me sin is like way more
options out of his stuff because he can cancel into other things and you know
meat to cancel and no one shit his food bar
It's after the patch. Yeah, without things have changed
Like they pretty much get like they do like what I'm saying is like on block they do similar
things which is like forward progressing Wrecker style moves that happen like an overhead
or something right?
They're an overhead or not.
And then they convert off of that and go into something else.
He needs food for his, but she also, like, you know, has to spend resources.
Either way, feels like sins more fun is what I'm trying to say.
It was like they're doing kind of similar shit, but sins just more fun.
It's fucking normals looking sane.
He's just trying to stay close here.
Great block in the overhead, but he had that spacing.
It just hasn't given him comfort to do anything.
And he didn't have any meter to see the just frame blowing him up for
the extra day.
Let's talk on at six tomorrow because that's what they said.
the perfect year two games straight how in the world do you manage to get some
hellfell has the plus on block grenade yeah I gotcha man but they nerf the
fuck out of it dude oh I think what bugged me the most about Elfeld and
coming back to her even though I'm not even good dude what the shit is the
new range on that shit like it covers like half the distance it did before
If you can use almost use it as like mobility in some way and now you just can't
And it was like whoa, okay, this is significantly different
She's just less interesting dude
Space that 2d with the big driver. That's exactly where you're playing at. You will spacing from him
Oh, man, he wants him to do it, but great discipline for me right there
It's that sending the blocks, but no manner now
She above she got chicken combo to grab
I think I need more time with her, but it just why wasn't having fun. What's the problem?
to be honest I don't have any character in this game I really want to play. It's weird.
Nah.
To be honest, I don't have any character in this game I really want to play. It's weird.
Wow.
Wow.
Don't even sound good. And then we tried him!
When I realized what his actual game plan is, I was like, ugh.
He's pretty much strike throw man.
No, it's nothing to TP back on offense. Oh, man.
Straight in with the law. Good Lord. Oh my God.
Control right now.
Yes, for your life here. No, man, a big problems ahead.
A little delay as we continue to poke.
Such good space conditioning.
I'm all with the other guys that I loved XR, dude.
XR is fun as far as it's still fun to get in the grand finals.
This is the player who has been coming in.
That was so deep.
Leo in that game is a blast.
He's so much fun.
The confidence coming into this, the stage presence that has been ridiculous.
Yancharara is living up to the theatrics right now.
Incredible performance.
Guaranteed top two for one of the best to do it right now.
And being able to cycle through both of the keys games with such a powerful suite of
with options and potential possibilities between them.
I mean, what a repertoire of characters
to be able to bring it to cover so many different looks.
Yeah, exactly right, because there are two
different archetypes of characters.
The way you approach mindsets,
the way you approach opponents
is very different between Kai and Sid.
We talked about how Kai is more about
keeping the character control,
keeping the opponent locked in.
Notashi kills Giltigir.
Hey, he apologized about that.
He's trying to get away.
In my defense, okay?
in my defense in that laggy fucking game before it had a rollback that shit was frustrating
he apologized okay that game was fun but fuck the netcode dude my god do that it was it
was true pre-strive arc system works garbage shit sucked man there's so frustrating that
illustrating
Okay, you love the game, but how much do you love the game you love it so much to hate yourself
And it's like oh dude it playing games legit, dude playing for any fighting game with bad net good puts me in a dark place
It happened tonight with invincible like I had like five straight games where it was running bad and I was like
Turns me into a worse player turns me into a worse person
Well, I hate it man. I fucking hate it
Made me hate ultimate marble three
Came back to that shit later and it was like this game is actually amazing
It's just that my bitch ass is playing it in its in its native netcode dude
Triggers in like hard
It's the reason why Tekken was so fascinating to me, and I said this before, but Tekken,
there's a reason why Tekken 8 grabbed me by the balls when it came out and I stuck with
it for a pretty sizable amount of time, more consistently than almost any fighting game
I've played in a while.
We've played more Street Fighter 6 hours, in terms of hours, than still Tekken 8,
but I stuck with Tekken 8 for a longer period of time, even though I was much worse
at it, because Tekken 8 was providing a truly unique experience.
Street Fighter 6 was mostly Street Fighter 5 too.
It was Street Fighter 5, but way better, you know?
So it's like, okay, yeah, this is familiar to me, you know?
This is great. It's Street Fighter 5 we always wanted, but it is what it is.
It's still good.
Tekken 8, I had never had that experience before, dude.
It had been so fucking long since I've been able to just like play people in Tekken, like consistently.
took so long because the netcode was so fucking bad for the longest time so to
me I had like kind of a refreshing new experience of playing Tekken online and
not hating myself and it was great it was legit really god damn cool so that
that's the thing that got me outside of all the crazy goofy bullshit the game
has been through when the game went through crazy goofy bullshit I sort of
checked out there's like a bunch of hope that things could get cool and
that hope gets like not met you know when it doesn't meet the expectations that
should hurt yeah I'll read code made the technique that code
It is we're already in the West Coast corner with a lot of chip coming out
Massive chunk another one
I like Victor before I played him
He was cool, you know
But
It was boring
This is boring
And then they saw some out of his mind dude. They gave him all these like stance cancels and shit all over the place like
That's almost like they recognize that like man this guy's gameplay game plan kind of sucks
Pretty pretty dry and they gave him a ton of shit
So he's a lot better now. He's actually pretty interesting now
with the movement once again it's off the guard crush but vanilla victor he was boring dude
that's what got me to start playing Lars
off the bonus not gonna help if you are still in the mix
our guard will not let it up right now gonna be able to get the heart knocked down again
the positive bonus is gonna be coming right now so you can trust the lack of meter
bill he's gonna have to get another mix before he's gonna be able to come here but now a
positive bonus isn't it be coming in hot without any penalty
And if it's a paragon ending, that belongs to D'Arruino, if you know the sponsor.
That was an unreal super.
He just ripped.
Even Mika was like, yo, are you for real?
Yeah, he was like, word, word, word, word.
Okay, okay, you're going to float forward to Superviar.
Cool, man, cool.
But you can tell Mika like a vibe in.
He's like, all right, I would do that.
So I could only respect it.
Right now, though, it looks like it's woken him up a little bit.
He's the one applying the pressure on the corner here, blowing up Darryl,
where every chance he gets quick R-C to catch him low,
that's going to be a wall break, it's a positive bonus for him.
Clean connect, clean corner finish though,
quick step away, floats out of range,
but unfortunately straight back into the range with the 5-P on to Mark,
double overhead, forced to the burst, still stuck in the corner now.
Oh man, he had longed the stuff out once so far that a stroke didn't even connect after.
That was a tough break for Darryl right there,
Even he will find some unfamiliarity up against Bedman.
I'll tell you what, the note actually, it's here.
I didn't think the note was even gonna be there.
I thought I had gone out of the way by a mile at that point.
A pixel of life left and finally does find something
anything would have done at that point.
2P ends up being the deciding factor.
Resource lead.
MLA canceled, that's at least gonna give him
the okay afterwards.
And that's gonna side switch to the corner we go.
Trying to delay the pressure up a little bit.
Trying to catch a press back.
But he can pick this spot perfectly.
It's like Daru's gonna burst the stay aggressive and finally get what he's looking for.
Now with positive bonus, not much meter and showboard here, but the hard knockdown is really what we're here for.
The flood shield, unfortunately, nobody home. Great delay from Daru, Eno.
A read on the defensive happens is starting to come through.
If we take this round, we're having a victory here.
Quality mega dropped.
Which does get...
Sorry, Jeff.
Unreal to bring us down to the final round of Game 2.
that these wall breaks man
Daru just been having the decisions
knowing how to take advantage
it's even funnier
you know, how the hell bud
get the true experience
the delay is just a bit
the flood shield into the stroke
eventually
yeah stroke dodging the bridge
alright the one blob is fighting the bed blob
okay
if you squint it's actually not so bad
if you squint you can like
you can like, sort of use your, no it's actually better.
It legit is better if you swim.
Actually way better.
It's better.
Daru here, he's the deflection, he's PRC, he tried to get him to block the chemical
love, it still dodged somehow.
Oh, the chip, he does have a lot of meter to prevent any chip damage as well, that's
why Daru is looking to just avoid, actually beats him to the butt on two asses, how
does he keep doing it at one more overhead, to go up 2-0 in the set.
Oh my god, it's smiled on the side here, but perfect movement to survive there.
Second that meter was drained the sheer amount of decisions you have to make against the fireball game the potential errors the potential explosions everything coming through from
Absolutely ridiculous play from Daru, you know, but again all these situations have been so winnable making a scene so close
360p my big brother
Clutch breaks that keep happening in the falls of Daru's way now the empty low right there immediate the wall splat let's get it
Man, big damage for a three hit combo.
Oh, my god, big damage for a one hit combo.
Yeah!
Man, packed an extra punch to that explosive.
And yeah, with that little huff left,
it was going to be long for Darwin
to make up the rest of that round.
Meakin' here, starting to find some momentum.
Oh, he's dodging the stroke at the beginning of the round.
He's getting a full punish afterwards.
And Darwin kept committing to options,
trying to combat this bet.
At least you've done just 30% life.
I'm not gonna be done here if you do find the error. Did you get the jump?
But doesn't make the first still massive advantage that might get mitigated here. It's a great six-speed to start
It's going low after here. Just trying to go and dive bed man down and push it to the corner
They get the big stuff going
went for the nice block
Out right punish baby me get on the board just like that
And still in it here. You can see the celebration that is absolutely
Perfect here when you especially when you're down in a set like this
nothing can power you up more than still having that good attitude. I think
really just enjoying the moment here but recognizing you're still in this at
every single stage. Yeah I love the fact that he's just purely in the moment, right?
Definitely enjoying some of the highest level fighting he's ever played. The
Goldfords got instant blocks, so Darwin and Gale pushed back in a state in his
face. I was like just visually wild to discern what happened. Not something
You ought to get to see here is the delay does man to catch.
I think that was a back dash there too.
Trying to utilize the big body back dash.
And the goal was, it was an air instance to block this wall,
right?
So it actually did recover quicker than usual
because it didn't recover as soon as you land at that point.
See, off of the knee now.
Send it to the wall, 100 meter,
flip pass, and look for the high low once again.
Not taking any of the throw bait.
Wow.
They're so smart, but unfortunately,
catches one on the dome.
Indeed, and it will be the first time
He's got 100% tension, right?
He's like, I definitely got enough meter to take this route.
Meekin doesn't have a lot of life left.
One more chemical love snipe, and he gets the route for himself.
Look at this, bro.
Just setting out the nodes.
Oh, and beautiful plan.
Got zoned out by Eno.
Dodging the spike and taking another round.
Meekin was on two sides of a timer there.
The amount of meter he was having to spend,
we're all confirmed by the weather.
That was crazy confirmed.
And just, yeah, the decision to go
with a rising bun at the start as well,
really catching on to Daru's habits.
Oh man, but what a counter right here, coming out with the 6P.
Stomping the air force, little L.A. stroke actually does.
Came from flinching for a second, but Meekin picking it back up.
Oh, calling out the air dash down with a close ass.
Changed it out into the node, great deflect shield there.
Recognizing the projectile was getting pretty much guaranteed your pushback.
Oh, oh man, got the air block out, but yeah, it's going to be Meekin's advantage
as soon as they're both in the ground there and he makes the most of it.
put in a heart on the board for himself.
I'm not sure which way to go when we get there,
but I would love to see a game five here, man.
Fully selfish.
Barino though, trying to stifle that right away,
quick on the Hummerdash, finds the high.
Can't quite extend though.
Defuntial once again is expertly utilized
to make some space.
Love seeing it right here.
And Mika now, like they cut the combo a little bit short
just to make sure he got proper Oki,
but Garu was an excellent defense
and gets up under that one for the throw.
We saw Meakin committing to a falling butt and that cost him...
21st life in the corner here, one opportunity, a single touch,
could potentially do it! What a super!
Beautiful stuff right there, that's a long start of move,
and Daru will be in a loser's final!
Inter closer and closer!
Plunk got top eight, that makes sense.
Oh, and Darino again, one of the best of the year,
I have to do a jump, or anything,
Meakin and unbelievable performance Joe and James are going to be doing commentary for Visa. That's pretty cool
Yeah, Chad I looked it up I found like the last time I played victory and it was
February 14th
2024
Like one of the last things we did for it
The vanilla victor
That shit that shit
It was godlike dude. Remember that shit? That dumbass move? You're blah. It did like
a half your health or some shit. It was so awesome.
Yeah, psychic force is being played down here.
i think it's uh...
it's not live
it's not live
neither is this one
neither is this one is not live anymore
uh...
and then he's back to normal. It's just like one frame. Every single time. It's so cool.
Yeah, stuff is so cool. James and I have been talking about Vampire Savior for the whole weekend.
Real quick, just want to put that out there as well. But we've been talking about this game all weekend
and I continue to say the same thing about the way I love fighting games in general.
I think they're one of the greatest types of games you can play.
Yeah, they've still had a lot of people this year for English commentary. One of the first times
There's a lot of English commentary about Japan now instead of just like a watch party
many smaller new ones in the game that just make it so interesting to play and they create a lot of good
like um player interactions which are worrying about all the different stuff that have to go on
well not even just like player interactions and so thank you lazy but in terms of these players
here have become one with their character oh yes so much like when i want i mean look i i put
If you want a game that has some of the most interesting neutral of any fighting game, chat.
Also is like crazy?
You're about, if you've never seen Vampire Savior played at a high level, like an actual
high level, but people that just play this shit, get ready.
Like you think any, a lot of people are like, man, this game's fast, man, this game's fast.
Get fucking ready.
This shit will be over in the blink of an eye, and it's not from long combos.
The game does not have long combos.
It is, this game is arguably faster than almost any fighting game out there.
so ball bustingly quick.
Yeah, and every character's neutral is like bonkers.
Like the only couple of characters
that have similar neutral ace in my eyes was like,
yeah, Sasquatch and John Talbain
could have kind of similar neutral.
They're about like quicker overheads and shit.
Overheads and lows and the sweep combos.
Yeah, they do sort of similar stuff.
Ish.
But fish man even be shaman
Like so many characters are crazy dude, they're fucking nuts
I just hope we see a lot of stuff
about like another game that has a similar pace,
the only one I could think of was the MPC 2.
Yeah, honestly, fair enough, fair enough, fair enough.
Yeah, BB hooded this game,
and she has some of the toughest combos.
Let's go!
She can be incredibly good,
but she has insanely hard combos.
Oh, I like this, I can see the crowd getting high.
Yes.
God, this is a very, very big deal.
I believe that Vampire Saitre
has not been on a competitive level stage like this,
Yeah, probably. Damn. All these Uggs. Holy shit. Look at all these Uggs. Holy shit.
My people. Wow. Dude, every single one. Every single person is over the age of 35 that I
I saw in there. Everyone. That was crazy dude. Everybody was at least 35 at the youngest.
I wish you guys could see the crowd to everybody in the crowd is
They're basking in the orange glow of the intro.
Joe's making the same observations as me.
Not a single person looks under the age of 40.
I'm gonna be truly sacrilegious over here chat and I'm gonna put the category of us streaming as
dark stalkers three
Yeah, here we go
Yeah
Man the true piece of shit
it.
That's how big this is.
Top five's Abel Sasquatch, QB, John Tobain, Alba.
QB, is that good in this?
That's your hero, right?
He's my hero.
And Call Me a Mother is a Zabba Zaraq player.
Yep.
Bo with Alba with a call on fish tonight.
Yes.
Banana Alba, by the way.
Now, Isayamo is an interesting story.
We'll get to it a little bit more when he shows up.
But he is actually one of the newer school players.
Sasquatch player, right?
Mm-hmm.
You know who that?
QB?
Here he is, my Jetta player.
Let's go.
Wow, a Jetta player made it into top eight.
Wow.
Again, keep in mind, guys, that Fire Saviors
are gay with extremely well-defined tears out there.
But the character specials are different.
This is the guest game at Evo Japan this year.
It's the throwback title.
All of them are playing a different character.
So far it's been Third Strike, Marvel II.
And now at this Evo, it's Darkstalkers 3.
Very capcom-y.
I'm all goody.
I'm ready for some dead action.
I know James is ready for all of the action.
Oh, H&K as well.
You're right.
Yeah, who could've known Ken, I forgot.
I think that's the coolest character ever.
So getting to see him play at a high level.
Which went well.
They had over 200 entrants with some shit.
Who are they going to do plus R?
They probably should.
That would make sense.
Kaji was retired.
He came out of retirement just for this event.
Because this is like only the second time this game
has had this kind of a stage.
So I'm saying 2024 went to write 2024 is the last time.
Crashing jet.
I'm crashing.
A bit of a pitch here.
2004.
So 2004.
You want to have me for like 31 minutes.
It's so hard to get that far back.
Yeah, I'm old now.
2004 so like what's interesting about it like like let's talk about a little parallel in the u.s
Like obviously east versus west, you know always we were a blob of but now it's not as prominent
You know James is cool. Whatever
Get a coffee. I want to sleep
In vampire saving a lot of japan so it's always like the kansai region where osaka is versus tokyo
which is you know more in the eastern region, but
the Osaka region right the Kansai region the West players here like before this
event but apparently they tweeted like we're coming like we are coming to take
some heads out here and I think we have four players in topic from the Osaka
region which is up so they moved around so it's not it but they still
I
Would like to check out the token thingy live
I
Think that's relatively early in the morning tomorrow for Japan time
So that probably means that that announcement is happening a bit earlier
Yeah, it's like the first thing tomorrow
6 p.m. Pacific our time is like 10 a.m. There's ish
It's literally the best and he retired and Nakanishi kind of took over that mantle when he retired
Wow we have some variety up here dude, but there is definitely some crazy-ass character variety going on
Plus dash, normal, I think.
Plus dash, Chad, right?
It's kind of like, do something.
Think it's her dash, Chad.
But she has a decent kick that's a really good anti-airship.
I think it's medium kick, sorry.
But yeah, she's all around decent character.
This game might be older than you.
You're 42 now.
This game came out in like 99.
This game is soccer, right?
All came from Buena.
Yeah, so this character here, she has a double jump,
which is brilliant, but both of them
have projectiles that cover the space.
Alright, so remember what I was saying, Chat, about how, like, all the games that you've been looking at so far look fast?
This game doesn't have long combos.
Combos are very short.
They're pretty much like, yeah, a few hits into Super if you're lucky.
Most things are going to be knockdown, like, like, just a chain and a knockdown.
So, if you have never seen how this game works, this game created the term anime fighter.
Like, Capcom created the anime fighter.
Many games that came after this sort of use this game like Darkstalkers is like a primer
So like just just watch how insane this shit is
Geez dude chain the entire thing in the air on the way down
You also get a shit ton of meter to work with like the the meter can go up to 99
You're never gonna get that much, but holy shit
That's killer instinct style rounds, you know, there's no round start is just keep going brother
I
Wow
That's grab
Wow
Holy shit, dude
Jack none of the inputs in this game are easy either fucking moves are hard to do
has a lot of priority. It's a little bit of a mystery. Uh-oh.
It also has OTG, like virtual fighter style OTG attacks. This game, I think the vampire
hunter, our starters too, also had it. They kind of got them from VF.
Twitter like two minutes and 20 seconds, you know like time limit
There's a true tech in his RNG
Push blocking is RNG
Yes
You have to like input for inputs within like a few frames and there's a chance of it going on
No, we don't change colors around here James. That's not a big no-no.
Actually, I think someone told me that...
How? You just do it.
And it has, you have a chance of it push-walking.
But you have to input like four inputs within like, like a chunk of frame.
It's like, like 10 frames or something like that.
So, but what it has to do with the throw...
If you do six inputs, it's 100% chance. Holy shit. But that's hard.
But both of these characters are...
It's rare to see this. Both characters are ground-dashed characters.
Oh, there it is again.
Again, what I dig about this game and what's interesting about it is that there ain't no fucking time for you to think about what just happened
Like six things just aren't taking place
It's just quick. You just move forward and do stuff. Are the combos mad long? They're not dude
It's just relatively high damage and
Sort of like whippy zippy
50% damage combo.
Uh-oh. Oh, he dropped it. It's too fucking hard. It's too fucking hard.
I appreciate him trying it.
much
Wow, just jump the fucking
Okay, so blood is almost dead she takes two more hits she's dead
Dead
Dude, Lilith had the most insane comeback dude. Oh my god, dude her comeback was fucking nuts
That's why I'm watching this at home and have their view set to like 30 frames per second.
That white health is actually glowing back and forth every frame.
So sometimes you will just see it.
You miss Looney Tunes ass style fighting games.
Dude, that's why the closest game to this chat, if you think this is cool, is honestly
Avatar.
Avatar is a Looney Tunes ass 1v1 fighting game, which is cool.
really cool it's crazy that we're actually able to do that with a big
franchise in 2026 that's really fucking cool yes girl girls is the skull girls
is like 16 years old or some shit
it and put the raging demon because otherwise you would never be able to do it. So that's
what makes Lilith so powerful is being able to just bust that out out of nowhere and you
know how fast the walk speed is dude. What's funny is that Morrican's dash is actually
bad in this game. It makes it broken and everything else but like it's not particularly
good so Lilith just has better movement than Morrigan does.
All right, we got a pretty even out.
Well, I'm gonna say pretty even if that we just live in L.I.
So we're good, though. We're good.
Yeah, one of the important things about that,
but who knows, illusion, you'll see a lot of times
Lilith will just use it as a dash.
Yeah.
What?
I was insane that James was just fucking talking about it
and then he did it.
So good.
Couldn't be better times than James.
Good stuff.
That's insane.
And another great thing about Lilith too is that she has some amazing jump attacks, jumping heavy puns, jumping heavy kick.
What am I talking about? This is a 30 okay. Jumping fearsome, jumping roundhouse.
Jumping anything. Oh nice throw man. I've been in the air. Codgy's looking to wrap this up.
Oh man, trying to chase down but like I said, Bleda has the ability to slow the pace of the game down because of the double jump.
double jump it's so hard to commit your offense against her.
Okay, nice double attack, hold me please, trying to create some space.
Coach we're not having it, Coach we're not having it.
Oh, nice combo, but try to get in there and there you see right there the dash.
And you'll also see a lot of Liliths like look like I have a covering
and then all of a sudden darkness illusion.
Wow.
Oh, nice little ticker right there.
Alright, here we go, that's a lot of hits.
Oh my god, you're dead. Oh, wow cutter bitch ass in half to wow dude. Look at this wins this game fucking amazing
This is fucking amazing
is physically hurt. So a lot of the information I got about these players, shout out to Majin Obama.
Shout out to Majin Obama 100% all day, every day. Rain, sleet, snow, or shine. Love that guy.
One of the things that he told me is that Koshio-
Yeah, it's him as fatalities. It has situational fatalities.
It's like a bar, but then just like gets beat up. Oh, so this is like a curse.
Yeah. So this is like a curse. Okay. All right. All right. No, no. Come on, man.
He was in top eight like I said in 2004 at SBO so here he is again it's so cool to see but you know fan fire savers typically run 2 out of 3 all the way to Grand Finals but it's 3 out of 5 here for top 8.
I'll take it.
Yeah.
I'll take it.
More Vsapp is good.
I believe when wasn't the last time SBO 2 got to 24 it was one game.
game. Well, SPO is always one game, but it's a singles event though. Right, this was what
was very like, usually I've got the team thing. So this was single event, one game in SPO.
So it's usually one game, one single elimination, and you can't change characters in the whole
tournament. And there's a reason why these games are so beloved is that like, the
This core gameplay design philosophy behind all of them was just fun.
It was functional fun, right?
That was the thing with a lot of Neo Gees games.
They're very functionally sound, but they're extremely fun.
There's also a lot of crazy busted things too, but a lot more functionally sound than
the majority of fighting games you would have at the time.
What the fuck?
So combine that with incredible audio and some of the best 2D visuals ever seen in a fucking video game,
and all of a sudden you have like a go-to-dash game.
And that's kind of exactly what like the Marvel vs. Capcom series was, Street Fighter 3 3rd Strike, and Dark Shockers.
They were all designed by like the same people, a lot of the same sprite makers, a lot of the same audio engineers and gameplay people,
all within like a few years.
Oh, what? You were just dancing in DP like that? Let's do it! Just go for it!
Yeah, nowadays these games look like broken messes, but when they came out, they were actually like, very functionally well received.
Come out, guys!
Taking you into the tornado, trying to send you to the land of Oz. Thanks for the cross-up!
Oh my god.
Yeah, there is a difference between first and second player.
So second player can usually get like some really dirty cross-ups, like in the corner, kind of like on CBS2.
I cannot believe the push blocks.
Dude, there.
Do you see what they're actually push blocking?
They're inputting like six inputs.
One little little hit that does like probably five to 10 frames of hits done.
They're inputting six inputs to get those texts to happen.
Those push blocks.
It's fucking insane.
I want to see the controllers.
God damn it.
I want to see the sticks.
And here's the thing.
This game also
has a functionality behind it.
Why it's so fast, why it plays out so quickly.
And it's to get more money out of the player.
Like Darksockers wasn't inherently a game that was like the most popular after the first one at least in arcades
so
They needed to make money
And yeah, they released a machine that just got people off and on on that machine off that machine real quick
And then within a year after this they did CVS one and CVS two
and it would take forever. You really got your money's worth when you played CVS too.
Here's what's funny, chat.
When you also play this game for the first time, guess what it feels kind of?
It feels kind of stiff.
You would not think that this game is this fast and insane.
When you first are like pressing buttons and doing things, it's a very stiff feeling
game until people unlock how it kind of outplays
It feels yeah, it feels awkward as shit
Crazy damage
Uh, you see a lot of lures go for that.
I saw Katya do that in the pause.
Yes.
Go show China, slow it down.
It's insane.
Too aggressive, though.
Oh.
There's that double-dice cross-block.
How the hell did you react to it with a DP?
How?
Oh.
Heck yeah.
Yeah.
The push blocks are interesting.
They, like, just get out of the way.
Push block is so nuts, man.
Yeah.
That time comes already for the, for the.
And you know what's crazy, Chat?
It doesn't cost anything.
Oh.
That's crazy.
It is also resource less, just like the other Capcom games,
like they just let you push block.
They just have execution.
That's your tough game.
That's your tough game.
Damn, bro.
He is considerate.
What are the inputs for push blocks?
So within about 10 frames or less,
you have to input six buttons.
That's the winner of the winning so much,
but he's in pain.
He's in pain.
Pushers in pain.
You have to input six buttons.
So usually it comes, you do a slide, like across the entire stick, you go from light
kick, slide your fingers across all the way to heavy punch, and you'll get like a bunch
of inputs.
Yeah, they can't be the same strength.
Jesus, dude.
So you can't just mash three inputs, three inputs, you have to slide your hand across
the stick from the light power to the heavy power, and you'll get a push block.
Or a chance of getting it, it's random at times.
Pay attention again to all the player interactions, stuff that's happening in the air,
something's happening on the floor, like you are your brain...
Each push block. Every time you see a character tech, you see the term tech and a character it's
pushed, they're they're sliding their hand across the entire stick and getting six inputs within
like within like a few frames. It literally is a pushing motion. Yeah, get off me. I never
thought of it being that way. Is it timing or have to be time? Yes, you have to hit all
six inputs within like, like a few frames. Like something between five to ten frames.
It's during the hits done or the blocks done. Crazy dude. This kind of mechanic would get
A thousand tweets about how unwelcoming this game is nowadays.
It's true.
Bro, the Lord Raptor!
Okay.
So let's try to get an understanding of what the fuck this guy is doing, Chat.
Is he mashing out of the curse?
A blockable.
You wait for the regular problem
There's some like high-level mix-ups here that I don't even understand yet
Wow
Oh my fucking God
Ain't no way
Dude look at these air dashes on Zable or Lord Raptor
Brother it's too fast
Oh my goodness. How is he still fucking alive? Holy shit. Oh my god damn. Bitch stood up.
Look at this. Look at this. Look at these old fucking games dude. You see that shit?
had to stand up. These old games were physically stressful. Now even plus
R isn't this fast. That's what I'm saying. This is arguably the fastest
fighting game I think I know of like of the big releases of like the the old
games that were not like complete cheese this game is insanely fast like I was
trying to describe what the new field this is gonna be like to everybody before
it started and now you see like it's fucking bonkers the other thing is
that it also is really high execution. Like it's pretty tough.
Like VF, like if VF was four times faster,
it's hard as shit even to move around. Like that's hard.
I was going to say actually earlier in this match right now it looks like Koyomaru was playing a little slower trying to like feel it out a little bit
as opposed to the last game I feel like he was pressing going in to kind of slowing down and think about things as game Dark Force
Wow uses Dark Force invincibility on activation to get out of a mix up
That's really cool
3 notes of Michael Jackson's bat
Bram bram bram bram
Do do do do do do do
Oh my goodness
like that is important because it stops the people trying to check and guard you all day
oh yeah multiple hits yeah bro those those stall jump ins
oh this air gas caught that hit but not me she answered you
couch a little too early got hit by the second jump attack oh i there is one more thing i want
to mention i'll mention between these matches here there is actually something i wanted to
mention about the belt but i don't know when the right time it's not dirt that's what you're
you're talking about probably probably it has to do with a button yes okay I'm
thinking the same thing you're thinking okay we'll talk about it after
guys there is a there is like a recovery oh that's doing right there so let's
talk about the button quick yeah so after the last frame of his jumping
light kick is like setting no crouching heavy punch the last frame doesn't
Produce the proximity guard box is it unblockable you cannot block just jump like it yes
A couple of setups
There's a lot of that kind of shit in the old games not the whole jumping light kick
But the last frame of the jumping light kick if you time the jump in with the last frame. It's unblockable
Marvel 2 has shit like that
The thing is it's so hard to do it's so hard to make it consistent
trying to chase the world out of the corner. Oh, I love when they chase the
tech like that. I love I love a good tech role prediction. Yes. Yes. And it's so
scary. Oh, wow. That was really good. It's a way to escape, but
Oh my god that instant cross-up is crazy
of the
kind of kind of call the other tech
Whoa, whoa, what the fuck was the fuzzy air combo? Holy shit
Whoa
The craziest thing is like so I might be Mars here if you guys don't know that's the Knackers player us
And also a lovely human being
The craziest thing about this game is the player expression with the character
right like that was crazy dude how how the hell did he hit that timing I have
never seen a bishop on do that before I've never seen that shit he got up and
popped off like I you don't see people do that shit dude
You don't know, okay.
You know, you're not gonna get
the same thing as me too.
You can't block that.
He's gonna eat that one.
So here we go.
Wow.
He's getting in there.
Yeah, it's interesting because
Bishop's best attackers are gonna be his dash.
Strong and his dash fierce.
The strong hits early and goes down.
The fierce hits later.
Oh, he goes up.
And so knowing the distance you are from the opponent
You know what this is comparable to, chat?
I...
I think there is a comparable game.
Yes, that go- dude, holy shit.
I think there's only one other game that's played by an insurmountable amount of people that moves this quickly and is this insane?
Melee.
Or it's just like, unhinged speed?
Probably comparable to Smash Melee.
Whoa, so when you fuck you dead wait, oh
My god, oh my god that sequence is that a 75% sequence
That was fucking nuts dude
Nakanishi, Kosho, and Kaji are basically you want to consider your three favorites in this tournament
Like they are the ones that you have to beat
That was fucking cool
How hard is that to do? How the hell does Bishimon get like wild ass jumping fuzzy overheads?
What what input is that? What the fuck was he doing?
It's happening. It's beautiful. Poetry. Poetry at EVO 2026 in Japan. We're gonna hit a quick end.
We're gonna be right back because what the the Bishiman's like his big horizontal swipe slash like downstrike the one that hits multiple times
That what's the motion for that it's not far above forward isn't it half circle forward. I
I can't remember so he's like doing that in the air it's a charge move
so it's backed forward
so he's hitting some sort of like air normal into it i want to go back and see dude can we
I
Want to go back and see
It was there's a 90% damage sequence
Fucking crazy dude
Oh, that's also 19. That's one year before it's 98.
Vampire Savior.
Oh, my bitch ass will shut up. That is a 99. That's 97.
Wow. Vampire Savior was
way earlier. Whoa.
Whoa.
I could have swore it was a 99 game. So no, the two big
The games that Capcom made in 1999 was Alpha 3 on my lips.
SF Alpha 3.
That's 1999, right?
It's actually 98.
Wow, it's 99 where we are.
Yeah, when it eventually made it over here
on Dreamcast, it was 99.
Are they back already?
Oh fuck.
Yeah, fish. Yes
Still insane within that short period of time they released like a few of like the greatest fucking fighting games ever made
Okay, so we have a completely different matchup now sasquatch is all about like insane overheads that are unreactable
Super good buttons and specials right and all bath has an unblockable
bubble. Am I remembering it wrong? He's fucking bonkers. He just sets up for it to, into kill
you.
Holy shit.
This is actually good.
Wow miss timed it
There's that overhead
Yes, that's what you just sort of like throw out some really big specials and supers and just hope you run into them
Wow
I miss the command grab
their end of their dark force but one thing I want to mention you know I'm
awake now dude holy shit I was falling asleep on my bitch ass is awake now
what the fuck
Stick an old game in front of my face and that's like coffee
Wow nice avoidance
Interesting choice
Whoa
He falls right away
Wow guard canceled in the superkick
Jesus dude
Okay, like I said, you like Martin be deleted and oh
Oh, oh, oh my god
Double dark for shit
I'm just gonna say the bubbles cheap
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
Like what? Come on.
Dark Force is so cool.
If only another game like a Dark Force style mechanic that you activate every once in a while.
Oh, it's KI.
Oh, that's exactly what Instinct mode was.
Exactly what inspired it.
There's a lot of Darkstalkers in Killer Instinct chat.
Shadowjago is just Dimitri.
He's down two games a lot a lot of characters game plans are very dark soccer Z
That sucks
has enough help to make the comeback here.
But beautiful tech hits.
The push block.
Oh, you just won't pass him.
Oh, no, this is not good.
That's sick.
When he gets you with that double throw,
you still take a lot of damage even though you take it.
Yeah, I'm blocking all this.
They're nervous.
He's blocking it all.
He's tacking it all.
It's offense is on point.
Nice.
Bo.
Tellin' Isayamo.
What about 10 years before you come back, man?
Yeah, thank you motion reocat. Thanks dude
City of the Wolves is
So karate it's Robert Robert as mr. Karate. I don't think it's been done before
Realism mr. Karate but not Robert
I mean clearly like what we were saying before this game. It's so important to understand what the person wants to do
But you know, I'm speaking of you say I'm oh, you know, we all in Tom Tacoma. Yeah
But you know, I've been like hearing interesting stories like I heard like there's I think it was a daughter
Not a son, but a 17 year old girl who's been tearing it up
Only a game made life bar scary over through rounds
told me that. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, someone was talking about that. Yeah. So I came up with
that. Like legit. K I 1994. That was the first fighting game to do that. versus the first
one to do that. And then Dark Sockers does it in Dark Sockers three. I don't even know
if Dark Sockers two has it. The way the round structure is I think that's I think
that's unique to vampire savior crazy to see a Jedi they usually lose
Yeah, but the thing about it is, imagine you're Magneto, but all you have to do is dash, and the character's on the range for you!
That is what QB does! Her air dash just holds in on the opponent!
Really?
Yeah, we are likely to see some more Dark Forces from Uchi Jena as well, since he does have a decent Dark Force, which is a pretty cool combo in Dark Forces also.
Most of the characters who can fly there they have no recovery on the dark force that they deactivate as low to the ground as possible
Yeah, we're setting up they did such a good job with Jetta in MVCI dude his gameplay is so sick in that game
really good at zoning and controlling space and throwing the cross up the sickles really are
hurting oh that's really old oops they're really hurting the space that you know they
wants to get into and you got to watch out for the ES sickle as well from Jeddah because if you
hit here it doesn't lose its active frames wow that old wow dude that crazy blocked the cross
up which is insane this is the orb thing that raven throws I didn't realize I
didn't realize that raven is Jetta holy shit dude he totally fucking is
Damn, I never thought of that.
Raven is literally Jetta.
Not in character design, but like in gameplay design?
Has like the flying forward shit as well, the lingering big projectile, the cross-up
like big heavy, same shit.
It's wild that I never even thought of that.
This game has so much grease.
Oh, yeah, I think it's not easy. It's hard.
Jetta isn't historically very good in this game.
Like, you have to just love him.
Right? I don't remember him being necessarily great.
Like, even some people would play him because he's cool.
But he's like hard.
So that's why it's like, that's why it like, they'd be the town hero, but you get good with
Jetta because he's so fucking hard.
on start up so you wow holy fucking shit dude
wow
such a good anti-air yeah as you can see he just did he get a little bit you know
on the pressure wake up hot dog force yeah you know what this is crazy dude
What's the thing where you are?
Oh, you gotta hold this.
Oh, beautiful.
And there you see right there, that chicken guard in the counter poke.
You know what I love is that this game would probably be heavily defined by frame data,
but because of push block, it's not.
Oh, yeah.
The hitbox on that move is insane.
You know?
Because push block exists, it means that you can just nullify fucking frame data,
depending on when you push block, which makes everything so crazy and sporadic and nothing
will ever play out the same.
Whoa!
That's actually what the glitch is like when that wraps, you'll see that big slide.
That was really cool.
The interesting thing about that move though is that it's actually unblockable, but
you can crouch under it, so if you're standing or you're in the air, you can't
do anything about it.
You gotta hold it.
Yeah.
of the
school
But again one of the coolest things about Jettus, a lot of the times he's attacking you, that's blood that you see.
Yeah he cuts his head off for his dark cancel. He slices his hand on his wing to spray the floor.
Look at that, his hands just fall like he stretches them. See what I mean by the priority on that thing?
We tried to switch up Jetta's uh, goop colors to red.
I wish it was easy, it was not easy.
Could never find out where everything was.
We were in MVCIB.
It's one of the things I requested.
Legos changed Jetta's goopy purple effects to red.
We found some but not all of them and it looked bad if he didn't find all of them and it was like, yeah shit
He's like censored an MVCI
He has no way to like combo into super or anything dude he just has to like
Oh
Jetta is out here beating the top tier
This dude is working his ass off.
Jetta's out here beating Top Tier.
What's Chicken Guard?
Chicken Guarding is guarding without any bravery.
You know when you have to guard a low or an overhead
when you're on the ground?
To guard the low, you have to block low.
To guard the overhead, you have to block overhead.
So when you can't react to a low and overhead,
in games that allow for air block, you do a Chicken Guard,
Which is holding up back and jumping and pressing back
Why why is chicken guard considering chickening out?
Because when you guard in the air, there's no looser overheads everything is just an air hit
Do you know what you know what the guard a lower and overhead in the air? It's a chicken guard
the tech roll. You try to do it again. Dude. Wow. You blocked that dance. Dude, I don't know how to block anything. And look, when
QB gets going, it's crazy how whole pressure is. But again, you know, like with the side
squats, it's a situation where he's saying, I'm on. You just don't see it, right? He's not seeing it. We haven't been able to see it because...
Whoa! What the fuck? So he's getting him in the air. He's chicken guarding in the air and punishing him for it because
the command grab is unblockable in the air or his like his swipe grab so it's a
response to him chicken guarding too much but it does a crazy glitch oh you
might as if he doesn't get out he might be dead
Oh nice
Push blocked into it, holy shit
Bro
He pushed blocked his ass into the lingering size holy shit. That was fucking crazy
Goddamn dude
The craziest thing about this, like I said, QB, such a strong character and he's fat.
It's crazy how the sounds there is neutral in these games. Here's the thing.
This is what neutral used to be.
...named actual neutral.
Old game neutral is fucking bonkers.
They had to fight each other.
That isn't just footsies.
...went down to like the, like, pixels.
And so, we ended up with him representing the QB.
Unfortunately, he is now out of the tournament,
and it is going to be out chief that's going to continue my guy forward with the
jettah my guy jettah at top eight in 2026 it's so crazy and showing that that players from yama
got to have it in them to do some bro jettah is tough in this shit he is not good and the top
tiers are very good we are obviously having a blast here i'm not going to my life don't go
Anyway, we'll go right back with more matches after this break
That's the funny thing is like even games that a lot of like perfect pro players and you know people of the like considered
I don't have any neutral like for example
I think one of the best examples of it is MVci a game that is very degenerate right extremely degenerate um
Bro, I don't know if you guys watch the $10,000 MVci be tournament that had
it was stealth versus Johnny dude the neutral was fucking crazy it was insane
because like the most powerful thing things they've been the most powerful
mix-ups that are just unreactable and they would they would they would they
would be predicting right on these mix-ups constantly and they would also
be nigh unhittable like they would be all over the place like the tournament
The the finals were insane, but they were weaving in and out of the neutral was true bonkers.
projectile reflecting and stuff
This shit was in mind blowing to me before we use it there we go
They block everything dude
yo Lando what a hundred and fifty dollar contribution to the natural rain out
we are I think natural rain can stop your pressure
I love the goddamn neutral of this game it's insane dude
it's fucking insane
everything's so powerful
compared to Vsab this looks slow yeah that's true that's what I'm saying
Vsab is something
good escape they're coming god damn decisions are being made
they're holding the laundry but the connector's stealth looking good right now
that's good knock down
can you get your setup?
can you go tempest?
you can crouch heavy tag last time
go for it again
good luck shit
he does man
I absolutely hit donfay pretty hard there
you almost released
I got the confirm
oh fantastic stinger follow up from stealth here
fast games are always harder than slow games see I must be a weirdo cuz I think fast games
are easier than slow games slow games I get in my head too much dude I really do I like
fast games man I like making split I like making decisions quickly but this I think it's just
Like games like Samurai Shodown, that's just fuckin' hard, man.
You can get away with a lot more, yeah, like you're...
It's like, you can have an entire game ride on like one thing that you messed up on.
Look at this shit! Dude, what the fuck?!
What the f- Look at the fucking defense of this shit!
What the fuck?!
He blocked all of that!
Oh, it's the dive kick!
Sorry, uh, it's back. Sorry, it's back.
Whoa!
I like that big jump in
Oh god, oh my god, it's so fucking cheap into the poison you said cheesy shitter
What the fuck?
What the fuck?
That was so smart.
Bro. Holy shit.
I'm sorry. All bats have dark force.
Wait, fish. Yeah, fish.
He's got the armor too.
So you can't push him away from you.
So that was just a guaranteed chase down situation.
That was like a complete checkmate situation right there.
So smart.
All right.
Back to the match here.
Tech hit. Get off me.
get off me nice there you see that that jumping medium that goes straight like
I said it's got the straight version of down version as well yep we're gonna see
as you just have come over a lot of pursuits coming from the airline air
dashes nice chainsaw yeah like check the little spikes on his leg turn it
takes off because why because that's the reason he cuts them by saving set
So exactly I still have no idea how they would make this game a nice
Yeah, he's getting a lot of off of that I could play this dash crash hard punch right
Lot of miles good check on anything from there
They're playing so safe now
Dash to low profile
Oh my god
Dude this bitch did dark force into bubble you're a true asshole
Hey, hey, hey, hey, you got a nice tech hit.
Oh, get back in the court.
You can't block this.
Wow, he teleported out.
Again, that's the nice thing about Raptors.
You got that teleport.
Oh, the empty.
The empty.
Remember?
You can do that.
He did instant air dash up heavy punch, which made the ribs go up.
It missed empty into the lights, the crouching light kick combo into the bone,
And he's got it lots of damage finish it off with the ES pursuit for the W
Yes
And no dwelling great dude just keep moving forward, you know no time to dwell move forward
You sit here and get stuck in your head about one thing you messed up ten minutes ago
I'm sorry one thing you messed up like two seconds ago. You've already gotten hit by three more things
It's fun
The only way I could ever see a dark stalker is like coming back
Is if it's literally made like Skullgirls
Would buy like no kidding the same character designer even you know
Like I always felt that if there was a new Darkstalkers that was going to happen or somewhere now
And had like a budget sizable from Capcom give it to like you know Skullgirls devs those artists and everything you know
It's truly like the future of how that stuff could happen
But that's like an old wish it's like a 10 year old wish
The activation zero recovery games
That ArcSys no no you do not want ArcSys game current ArcSys the works gameplay on Dark Stalkers you would not want that
That's down and kick in the air when he does that little spinning thing.
It hits so weird and it changes his momentum out of no bad call.
What I was about to say, all bad is that, you know, his jump attacks are really good and if you
with a jump attack, you can do another jump attack on the ground as long as a different button.
But he's one of the best at that. He's got great jump attacks, but it's unfortunate that just
darkstalkers doesn't make any sense nowadays. It just doesn't. It's characters make sense.
It makes sense for games, but to even do like a double A project with Dark Sockers is probably
very...
They've probably tried to do it several times and it just doesn't amount to anything.
Chat as a reminder, how long do you think Dark Sockers was relevant for in your head?
It was a big deal for like 10 years right like 10 15 years from like the 90s to the 2000s or some shit
right
My dude was three years
It was 1994 to 1997 everything else that came after that were just like ports
It was three years
It was it was never like
And the only one that was ever actually successful was the first ones that came out
Because it came out right after like super turbo and shit at the at the height of like Capcom 2D Capcom 2D
So unfortunately even Darksockers 2 and Vampire Savior does never had like sales to back up things
It just didn't sell that much the first one in arcades did well
Yeah, I was still on CPS 1 at that time
But it's so close
The reality of it being a thing again is just I'd love to see it. It's just
It's hard really hard
Maybe procs, thank you
I
Just can't make games for fun or love anymore
That's kind of the difference, you know these things didn't cost nearly as much to make back then they just didn't
You can make these games with it like like a skeleton crew, you know, like not that many people
Were required to put this shit together and cap was pumping out sprites, bro
like their
Their teams were so good at pumping out this shit mad quick because there was a ton of expertise around it
Areas also where Nakanishi plays. It's also where Kaji. Oh, no, Kaji lived there now
But he was originally from Osaka, but Saitama
The arcade that they play on is the is big one big one second. Yeah
Shut up the boss wherever boss is
We love boss. Yeah, but Komi Madru
uh continuing I mean apparently his nickname is uh the guard breaker because
you just can't block him I was also told that some people also nickname him
Krillin Krillin because he looks like Krillin I mean I happen to fit them
old as well so I'm down with it but yeah Oichi Jetta coming my god
There we go.
Oh, we see Jedda.
There we go.
There we go.
Jedda going up against.
And Kocho, remember, we saw how crestfallen he was when he lost.
My bad is this.
Seriously, we're-
No.
It hurts.
Oh, man.
Yeah, the lot of Jedda.
For me, I was very emotional when I'm playing games.
Even though she's not terrible in this game, it's pretty good.
I lost against Majin Obama.
I can't stop complaining.
I was there.
I'm like, it's all right.
We're gonna be alright. Let's get out of here dude. Let's go eat something
Again, I do want to bring it back real quick. This does need something to a lot of us
Yes, this is a this is not just a regular vampire savior tournament. This is huge
Ready's guy. Yeah, and also I always have to do this everyone who's heard me
Commentate vampire savior one of my favorite stages one of my favorite songs war at me
I love it
Oh he tried!
These god damn soccer combos.
Now the problem with the...so this game did come out on the Capcom Fighting Collection
1, but you weren't getting Dark Soccer fans to play that version.
In Japan, the entire community specifically plays on arcade hardware and nothing else.
It's the same thing with Third Strike in Japan, like for the most part.
You might get some of them that play on Fightcade here and there, but nobody plays Third Strike
generally in Japan on anything but arcade hardware, and everybody else is on Fightcade.
But Darkstalker's Vampire Savior was on Capcom Fighting Collection 1.
It's good, but it's not arcade perfect.
It just isn't.
That was when they were first porting fighting games to their collections, and the ports
Most of those games are, like I said, decent, but there's enough minor input delay and differences
that will make it so that you'll never convert the fan base over.
It's not going to happen.
And even I played it and I was like, these feel a little off.
Like some of these games, they feel good, but they feel like a little bit.
Like something is a little off.
And I wasn't an expert at any of them to pinpoint what it is, but I'm like, I
know the community's probably not going to shift for this.
The only time that's ever happened is literally what the NBC collection did.
Whole community went over to that collection.
You're not going to get nearly as many people playing on FightKate anymore or anything
playing Marvel 2.
It's not going to happen.
over in Darksockers, that's fucking crazy brother.
Oh my god, it's 5 30 in the morning. I think I told myself about an hour ago. I was gonna stop watching this
And here we are again like that war that's crazy
Now we're suddenly on Japan time
of the most evil characters in this game.
I mean, like, if you're rating evilness, like, as a scale,
I think they're, like, the two most evil characters
in this game.
I guess we saw some nice, slow, methodical play there.
Let's see if we play the same game again.
Or we're going to start pressing a little bit more.
Yeah, I think, canonically, one of the most evil characters
is definitely Baletta.
Beaverhood is actually evil.
everything about her looks is a disguise
she's like a ruthless assassin
she's honestly one of my favorite like female fighting game characters there is
she's so fucking cool dude yeah she's psychotic and a ruthless assassin
Wow what a character
Holy shit
Shit, that's the first one we've seen tonight. It's the first one dude. It's mad hard
And Blythe does have infinite on certain characters. I don't remember if Jetta's one of them
Good Morgan be a guest in Street Fighter 6. Yeah, I could see that happening
Oh my god.
He deserved that man. He landed that goddamn combo, dude. He landed that shit.
Terry and Maya's kind of a lot already.
I mean again, Terry's always been cool my air game play
Terry combos are fucking cool dude him doing triple geyser that shit's cool
which requires like one frame jab into dash jab and the jab and the jump jab and dude, it's the craziest thing.
I do want to point out that a lot of players that we know today pretty much almost started somewhere around in this game.
Like, all your favorite Japanese players were grinding this game back in the day.
We're going to chat a little bit about this match, though.
Yeah, oh, there we go. That's a jumping heavy kick right there.
Hey, look at the damage already. So, I'll leave it only for four seconds.
Yeah, what you can see right there is kosher.
She gets so much from doing so little.
Hits you with like a couple of like these like fuzzy overheads and all of a sudden you've been you're like down 50%
Laying out that he lands and hits you low and you can't switch the guarding time.
Aim.
Requires you to do a render cancel, so like ST shift?
Uh, standing too.
Like short short stand short render cancel shift?
Okay, nice standing.
Yeah, keep him to the corner.
No, you're staying.
That's fucking hard Brenda cancels are not easy dude
I was trying that shit and I got like one every ten tries. They're fucking hard
Wow cool cool ass mobility
They miss the guard cancel
Okay, activates again to get out of there. Yeah. Wow
For the name change from bulleted a baby hood a lot of characters and dark stalkers have different
Have different names in the
Of different names in the Japanese version to where to the English they were localized
Belletta takes the baby hood for baby Bonnie hood
Which is a good localization to be completely honest, but the lead is a really cool name
Good shit
Thing is the Jetta player dude he had to work he's ass off man
can do that. That's the unblockable. I have to try this at some point.
J Rocky. Thank you. I got to give her a shot.
Bebe Hood is a sick name, too. It is Alul Beth to Rico Lord.
I'm sorry. Zable to Lord Raptor.
Some pretty good.
Some pretty good localization names in there.
Yeah, John, Tal, Bane, his name was Gallon.
Lele changes to Shinko, yeah.
Uh, Pyron is, uh, shit.
Pyron is, god damn, I forgot, Phobos, yeah.
I don't know, Huitzl is Phobos. Pyrrhon is the same. Yeah, I'm thinking Huitzl.
Yeah, Lord Raptor is a pretty weird name, but also really good.
I'm ready, you know, I'm not today anymore.
I've ever lapped beautyhood in Marvel 2, I have not, you know.
I participated, and when I did, I was able to get a prize money back, so I had a good time.
And the token reveal will be, I want Venom.
I want Venom.
I have to, I have to chat for the sake of your eyes in mind, I have to not full screen that, dude. Holy shit. I feel the eye strain. Oh my god, dude.
Yo, BillyBlazeTV, thanks for the tier one.
I
Needle would be godlike he'd be on doomsday maybe those
None of the none of the teams make sense really kind of crazy
Let me say Sonic Fox was posting some big ass combos hold on a second
I'm gonna talk to Zenny, which by the way, I think it's really funny that they call themselves any game because I don't
I think they named it after a lot of old Capcom games the money they always called Zenny in the game
So interestingly enough, but here we got huge giant gadget.
And it's like that's all the fan fires.
And it's got a lot of energy.
And I can be a shaker on the beach.
Change this guy.
Magic was fun.
Magic was Halifon.
That's crazy that Sonic figured out that quick.
she was a lot of fun
again
, that was I was more impressed by magic scheme play than I was warren's
No time to breathe, no time to gas.
I like magic even more than Wolverine.
At an insane pace.
And also, best stage ever.
Best stage ever.
One of the coolest stages ever.
I will hands down agree with that.
For the longest time, I didn't know what it was to.
I remember when I was a kid, I didn't know what I was looking at.
My favorite character in Street Fighter 6 and Tekken 8.
To me, I like Terry the most in Street Fighter 6
when I eventually get back in and commit some time to it.
I'm playing Terry.
I just had the most under them and yeah, Lars and technique.
Well, boy, howdy, here we go.
Here we go.
I like Ken and Fidel Fury.
Weirdly enough, I love Ken and Fidel Fury.
He's very funny in that game.
The storm boring didn't play her now I'm not into playing storm isn't a huge fan of
a game play
that's awesome believe that I love introducing people to this shit it's so cool
that does insane damage from being like completely hit confirmable granted it's like a demon input
Oh, that was fast.
If you do a chain combo, you can't cancel a normal into a special move.
So whenever you see something like that, that is a chain.
That was basically about doing low jab, low jab, low strong, all as a chain,
as I leaps, and not chains.
Yeah, that is not that easy to do for real.
I've been trying.
Okay, we're going to get some dead pressure.
Not going to see anything.
I forgot about that.
Yeah, pursuit trickery.
Yeah.
Manual combo timing to get the cancel
Wow shining blade
Damn
Wait for the life to recover
Everybody's over the age of 40
Yeah, so he got all three hits right there, so he had been holding on to that charge for just a little bit there
And you know it requires a lot of execution for it because like you know when he did the
to the fireball. The fireball.
If you've not careful, dude,
that did all the character artwork
for this game chat is the same.
Did that all the character artwork
for Marvel versus Capcom one
who's a bengus and like X-Men
versus Street Fighter and Alpha
three reason why it's so good.
You are dead!
Wow!
Matt was going on for five seconds and he lost a round.
Did he do Marvel too?
He did, yes.
It's also bangus
Oh my Christ
Oh, oh my god, dude, what a game
Holy shit, the thing that is really really good. Lilith's damage output is bonkers
Everyone that's watching this game
Find a way to go play it right now and try to do anything you see on the screen
That's what's funny dude you think this Lilith combo is easy try it
Silly!
This is Luzalapun!
This looks like these are guys are just playing fast.
The execution is nuts.
Holy shit!
Thanks for the 50 dudes.
My God!
Man!
You took getting hooked up.
Thank you very much, man.
Yes, and you see a bitch mom
Punch into the stands crouching fierce in the standing roundhouse. It's actually fast recovery
Oh, not too far away. Then if you just let the crouching heavy punch rock
Oh
Oh my god
Jumping heavy punch
Standing forward
Yeah, it's crazy. And the input for that super chat is a raging demon. So it's like two buttons
in order with the direction, I think, and two other buttons. I don't know if it's exactly
another ES pursuit
Oh no
Holy shit
When he backdashes he can still do a button and you have to time that roundhouse
Perfectly and it becomes an instant overhead and he caught him with that
Not gonna be she won't get away from getting the grand finals and you know
Kaji as we've said has always been considered the best and not gonna she has always been kind of
Coat tails here. Can you imagine look at them, dude?
Look at look what these games take from you. Holy shit
I
Look at this shit
All right Paul
He didn't undark force right away, he waited because when the tech happened, if he hadn't come out of it, he would have been punished.
Nice.
Man, he's not playing right now, just full on pressure, look at him.
Yeah, the dash punches from Bishop on are so good. Oh, there it is again.
Jump into it. Okay. Is he gonna go for a dash? Okay.
Black Anise one of his favorite things is a dash over your body and then blue hands you from the other side.
Oh, oh my god.
Nice.
Oh.
Oh, the jump in.
Just like that. Conjuring the lead.
Oh, you're dead.
No, it's too far.
Too far.
You saw the
Can do that
Be careful
nice jump it called it out
Side W on the board that is too too in this winners final set
I love
How much fun Kaji is having right now?
She is very stressed
But I love this because this man retired from the game and he's playing this and he is having the time of a life
He is having all these smiles was just like it warms look how taxing this game is dude
Look how fucking mentally exhausting and physically draining this shit is
There's no one else here
You have no time to focus on your breathing when you're fighting because the game requires
so much of you that you have to like pace yourself after it's over.
Like no shit.
When you're in a competitive scene having to respond this much this fast like when you're
in the end of it you're like you have to actually fucking dig a breath because this is the most
important dark soccer tournament in maybe 20 years so they're physically taxed by the end.
Okay, oh damn she jumped out with the brithian. Thank you
Which can jump cancel
Oh
Oh my god, he's using the demon that's teleport. All right. He's using the demon as mobility
Goddamn
Got her in a bad spot, but holy shit
Okay
Fuck
Oh my god, he missed it
Bro he jumped in and did DP
Bro he just did jump in DP that's crazy
by the decision making that's crazy he did jump in DP in the end holy shit he
didn't have to jump DP fucking win it
these old school games you just DP what you want to
I don't know if I'm sitting down for the rest of the time if I could be honest with you
Oh my god what I said what a read what?
Old games are so fucking cool, man. I tell you what
They don't make them like this anymore
They don't make it like this anymore
in this game, a lot of DPs can be punished, but it doesn't hurt so bad sometimes.
Yes, yes!
Like, a demon cradle is kind of hard to punish on some occasion, things like that, but he
was gonna die no matter what happened to him.
He was gonna get flicked and killed, but that was incredible what a decision to make
at that particular point.
It was funny.
I remember, in that same argument, I remember hearing people complaining and invincible
about the DP thing again.
How can you not be safe on an on literally completely invincible DPs when they weren't and I'm like motherfucker
Have we never played ST?
Have you never fought against a cannon super turbo like what?
This isn't a unique concept
I don't know
No the answer is they had not
How could an invincible DP be safe?
At the end of the world, trust me.
All right.
Gallon's very good.
He's the character I play because he's just so new player friendly.
His movement is back.
walk speed is amazing his jump is so good
yep it's a natural mix up
And it does the most ridiculous amount of damage
and they get all five of them, but there's that instant overhead.
And wow, the up-heavy punch off the air dash catching the jump back.
But like Blanca in the Street Fighter II days,
the biggest speed at Cobain's jump is reduced.
Whoa!
What the hell is happening?
He did it again.
He spent so much of that meter by accident.
Definitely an accident.
But yeah, so the nice thing, too,
is that you saw that crouching heavy punch a while ago.
It can't be a good anti-air.
But Saber-Wolf inspired by Tal Bain.
No, those games came out right around the same time.
There's shit.
Darksockers was 1994, like mid-94, and so was K.I.
They just both had dogs.
I don't know where.
They both had, like, werewolves.
Not inspired by each other at all.
Completely different movesets.
Yeah, they don't play anything alike.
in the corner, air dash out of the corner.
Taubein is in Dark Suckers 1, right?
Yeah, he is.
Yeah, he's in Dark Suckers 1.
Do I go back to Boletta?
Let's see what we got here.
Let's see what the crowd thinks too.
So what I was told, and I don't,
it was not Kosho actually, but I mean,
it was not Komi-Maru, but at the SBO event.
How sleepy am I? This is key. This is wicked. This woke me the hell up dude watching this shit woke me the hell up
This Dimitri shit at this game, he's okay
He's okay
He's he's also pretty new player friendly. He's not like terrible
This game seems unfriendly for casuals.
You know what?
Fair.
If I, if you looked at this and expected that you would be able to get these results
with little experience or play time, this game is the most uncasual friendly you better
go.
You shouldn't even be watching.
That's what I say.
If this intimidates you, you shouldn't even be watching.
Enter the safe space.
Okay, yep, yep, yep.
You guys, come on.
You guys, come on.
You have nice patience.
Okay, the jump back medium punch.
Again, really, really good punch in that jumping medium punch.
Good punch!
Nice launch!
Of course, yo.
Damn, my boy!
Okay, he's making the comeback!
Yeah, I like this.
He's making the comeback!
Oh!
Stand up for it!
I don't think he thought he was going to get hit by that.
I owe him that.
Oh, man.
That's my new response.
Anytime somebody shows up and says that a fighting game is unfriendly for casuals,
Like you are right. It's very scary. You should probably leave. It's time for bed
It is past your bedtime
Very scary
And that teleport is saving his ass dude, holy shit
Wow
That does so much dude ex exo tg follow-ups do so much
fights Lele. He gets heart eyes and he gets like a fish bone through his heart. But when
he fights BB hood, Raptor's friend La Malta shows up with the heart eyes against her.
Just watch for that in the beginning if they actually show the intro section here. You'll
actually see La Malta coming out and he's like and then Raptor kicks him like he's
like stop. And then Lamalta is like, Lamalta is like, oh, I'm sorry.
That little goopy weird cartoon character is called Lamalta.
In this game, I love it.
James is talking about the weird guy that Zable uses for a basketball, right?
Here we go, you have to take a quick little breather.
Yeah, this little weird scrimble-o-bimble-o looking dude.
We didn't see the kick.
Okay, okay.
That guy's name is Lamalta.
That's the taunt. I forgot. That's the taunt. Sorry.
Oh my god. Guaranteed OTG, okay.
So wait a minute, you cannot special cancel chains, but you can super cancel them. Is
Is that what we're saying?
Or do you have to do like a fucking render cancel or some shit?
They don't naturally cancel, you have to render cancel into them?
You can only cancel chains into demon supers.
Okay, so multi-input supers.
So if it's like, because most supers in this game
are like pretty much a motion with a couple of buttons,
it's Renda Unless Demon.
Okay, I'm like motherfucker, I have tried this shit.
It does not come out.
I'm like what?
Renda cancel is a thing that was discovered in ST.
It's like a combo like after like short short,
stand short, crouching short short, stand short,
Like super.
It's hard.
You have to like empty cancel a move
after the stand short into super.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, whoa.
Yeah!
Holy shit.
That's like a victory screen.
Time out, Benz!
I'm just interested about that.
That was goddamn funny.
I'm up on life.
What am I doing over 10 to myself for?
You got to come to me at this point.
Yeah.
One little fun.
Oh, Josh, I saw you were in here.
Chad, who was the player I ran into?
That guy was like top five.
What was his name?
Like a four-letter name.
Fun.
Josh, have you played Fun in Invincible?
PHON
Did you ever run into him?
I played him last night easily the best player I played easily
That guy was this accuracy was insane and that slippery ass fucking game his accuracy was insane
I couldn't believe it.
This plays a bit of space sultry and gurr, they're mad good, yeah.
I haven't played against, I played clay in the previous beta but not now recently.
That round lasted 7 seconds.
We found some pretty gross shit tonight with Titan off of like any head any knockdown across
one bar for a hard to blockable. But his neutral sucks.
There we go.
like fifth place or something like that in that tournament.
You hear the commentators say incident overhead, but it's like every overhead
incident in this game. Yeah, pretty much. They're all guesses. You have to like,
well, they're not really, it's all positional and like predictionary, right?
So if you see that a character is within a certain distance, you know that
you could get hit by an overhead from that distance, right? So it's not like
there's no preconceived notion of what's happening. Once you're around
it so much, you know where you get hit by shit, and you're just kind of
aware of it so yeah they're instant overheads but they'll not get hit by
instant overheads like all the time because they just know that hey from that
angle that's where that hits from
Oh, man, the movement.
Oh, he backdates it to the missile.
Yeah, OK, OK, this is in the corner.
Good boy, we've got some pressure going.
OK, yeah, just using that missile.
Oh, got the jumping.
Put out the table's turn, James.
Oh, my goodness.
Can Kosho pull this up?
He tried the towering.
It didn't work.
Went back to his turn and threw.
Yeah, he technically almost threw a game.
Yeah?
Oh, nice jump back, actually.
They're playing so much goddamn neutral right now holy shit
Oh my god
Bro, O.C. V.D
continuing forward that Tau-Bane game did not come back to fight him.
It was almost like a throwaway game and he managed to pull it back into...
Xebel has no lower hitbox during his jump startup.
...match run.
Wow.
So what is fucking MVCI Dr. Strange?
I need a break man.
I need a break.
We fixed that.
I need a break for a second here.
We added his legs back.
Let's take a couple minutes.
We'll all rejuvenate.
Come back to play.
Yeah, Dr. Strange couldn't be hit when he was in the air when he was flying around.
around his legs did not have a hitbox or hitbox it's fucking stupid
that's like that's like old fighting game shit you know like Q can't be thrown when he's going from a crouching to standing state you know
can't be thrown he's just un-throwable so it's like goofy shit like that
We can achieve anything!
You can air grab him!
Hahahaha!
So wait, you're telling me that...
Jibo, you're telling me that Chun can...
I can IA instant air grab...
Q on crouch to stand?
that's fucking funny that's fucking funny I didn't see that I've never seen that
ever before he's so goddamn tall she might be able to
does my msh vsf Hulk do the same shit I never touched Hulk in those old games
dude I have really appreciate when people actually put time into Hulk in like
MSH and MSH VSF and MVC one and even Marvel two where he's actually a lot better
When people are actually good with Hulk in those old games dude, his normals are fucking weird like
That character it got really good in like Marvel 3 eventually they made him functional dude in all the MVC games
Hulk is a fucking weirdo
And it's funny because he's supposed to be like the most easy-play character because he's the Hulk
No, bro. He's he's a weirdo to play
Gotta jump around short, short all the time.
Can barely combo into supers like ever.
Darkstalker's last tournament of the night, yes!
Last one, best one.
Freedance so tired you're tired
That's undeniable versus so far. It's fun. We ran into some funky-ass connections which
made it unfun. But the second half was very enjoyable.
We nobody in Japan knows of all combat is
Horto combat oh
Sweating screaming standing yelling
YouTube is raising its subscription price to 2099 a month crazy crazy crazy over here
What I just want to give a shot at this message
YouTube premium is going up to 21 dollars a month. I just got the message on my phone from Apple
Well, I know you guys are watching this event.
Shout out to all of our privacy.
Subscription price increase.
Oh, my god.
He's standing up.
That is crazy.
Oh, my god.
You can see.
I thought he was coming off the top.
$20 plus dollars now.
This is losing.
It's $18.99 now.
It's going up $3.
Oh, boy.
All right, James.
Listen, this is the last hope for your boy.
No, it's going up just $2.
This is good.
I didn't realize it was $19 already.
Can you imagine if Kosho after?
Wow.
Wow.
Remember when it was 10?
That's when I started.
When it was 9.99?
That's when I started, dude.
Actually, no.
I started when it was 4.99.
Yeah, YouTube Premium, it was called YouTube Reds back then.
It was 4.99.
Jesus.
He's going to add blocker.
Yeah.
It's gonna be really hard. It's gonna that blocker. Yeah, but I mean
Problem with ad blockers is that they find out a way around them and then you have to like update them or change to something else
and it
Dashing fears, but there's always some weird fucking thing you have to do
Cat mouse game
No, uh, except from Apple.
Apple tells you with the things that you're signed into, like the subscription services
you have, like I'm logged into YouTube, so it warns you that your YouTube subscription
is going up.
Oh, I have a question I have a question to people
that are actually subbed on YouTube?
Do you guys still get ads?
I mean, if you're not already like ad blocking and stuff,
when the streams are going,
and you're subbed to the channel,
do you, like, like a Twitch subscriber,
you don't get ads, right?
On YouTube, if you're subbed on YouTube, do you get ads?
So far not.
You have to be a member, right?
Not a subscriber, not a subscriber, a paid member.
premium obviously you're not getting ads obviously but if you have like a badge
next to your name and you're paying for the emotes and that kind of stuff I'm
curious if you're getting ads you get zero ads which you have premiums that
doesn't count yeah
yeah if you're not a paid member then I the question's not I'm trying to
figure out because obviously like the incentive behind subscribing on Twitch is
that if you subscribe on Twitch you don't see ads, at least not on the channel, right?
So that's great. On YouTube that historically has not been the case,
which is one of the reasons why there's just not a lot of people that are
willing to put up money unless you just want to support for being a member
on YouTube. Why? If you are a member on YouTube, not a subscriber, subs are
different like sub its subscribers on twitch members on youtube if you're a
paid subscriber or member I'm curious if the ads are not there at least on the
youtube side
Yeah, Twitch Turbo is the way you get no ads on Twitch.
My god
Can't get away dude
She's squirrely
My god, I'm blockable
Holy shit
Was that a fucking link
Was that not a chain? Holy shit, dude!
Those aren't chain combos, dude. What the fuck?
to get the right distance oh yeah this is a this a weft meter build game
I tried to go for the instant overhead didn't quite get it but that's the problem with that
EX percent.
Damn dude, it's so fucking accurate.
It makes these tight switches here.
So we're put Nakanishi into the corner.
Oh.
Oh nice throw into the E as per suit that is 2.
Ooh.
He actually got the fatality.
He got the chopping block fatality.
Too solid.
Nakanishi locking in right now and Kosho is just like, what do I do?
Hey.
You see the no ads if there's a hype moment happening feature that YouTube is adding?
Dude, I love this interaction between the two.
This is so good.
This is really cool.
This is so good.
They're talking, they're talking.
Yeah, I have it set on, I've had it set on YouTube where it's an automatic ad detection
thing.
Yeah, that's what I use.
Here we go.
Are we going to see like maybe a tailbane or is it going to stick with the bullet?
his top lane is a good character against vishamon
I don't know James, I mean this is the character I got on this farm
I mean, but at 0-2, I don't know
Right! I know it's the...
Buletta can cause vishamon a little bit of strife with the missiles
because it's really kind of hard for vishamon to fight them
but Kosha is going to stick with the Buletta
Here we go, an immediate EISlash right there at the start
Is that a confirmation of more ads on the channel then?
It should be less.
No, that should be less.
Because ads were based on a timer before.
They were timer based.
And if they're smart, it means there would be less but more effective ones, right?
down ES person again what's the mix I was thinking that maybe like coach you'll have to leave so I
felt like maybe he didn't need to go in and then he got caught by that combo
oh nice getting that trade right there I got through the missile Jesus oh the missile
just stopped short I'm hitting vichyman on the way down dude knock-a-nice movement and is incredible
oh my god it's so clean looking I say both characters they do play just watch him fight
right now it's just really nice and I love how Nakanishi escapes the corner whenever he
gets hit by the instant overhead he just jumps or dashes and just gets out of there that's
just some matchup knowledge right there just knowing what's going on man knowing the game
knowing his options knowing the opponent could jump back right there for Nakanishi
and the corner all of this is this is kind of even okay this is kind of even
Heal slowly if you don't take immediate damage after.
It has like a reverse rally system where if you get rushed down too much, you just fucking die.
But if you get them off of you, you can recover life.
If you don't take immediate damage.
Wow, that was trickiest shit.
Whoa, nice input.
I think that was supposed to be a ES pursuit, right?
He accidentally activated the door.
Yeah, because wait a minute.
Isn't EX pursuit like up heavy punch, heavy kick?
Yeah.
Use the mental pressure right there to get the mental game.
Oh.
My condition is just trying to walk up and throw.
Oh.
Here we go.
ES pursuit.
No, the time ran out.
Dude, the ran just so fast.
I always forget to look at the timer like in my heart. I'm like
But again, this is what
Well, thank you
I mean, not gonna take a deep breath up there, too.
When you're up 0-2, and then your opponent wins that first game, you're just like-
You get this little feeling, right?
Like, hold on a second.
Yeah!
It's like this weird, you know, like, tingles, you're starting like, wait.
Not like this.
Not like this.
Wait, I can't, I can't let this happen.
Because you go from feeling like, okay, I'm doing great, I'm winning, and then you're like, shoot.
Yeah.
Wait, this doesn't feel good anymore.
Oh beautiful
Fuzzy ass overheads dude, holy shit
First back
Jump right over the missile was in range. Oh, I was looking fucking bad
Jesus he's playing a mile a minute right now
Yeah, I'm running at him.
Oh, damn.
Okay.
We're still in this change. We're still in this gotta watch out for the timer. No, there's no fucking way. There is no fucking way
And now he doesn't have to keep a moth
Oh
I've never seen this many matches go to time
God damn bro
that every time he jokes I mean you'll know what I'm talking about my gloss and
fireball man but I mean we talked about it earlier how there was a lot of
regional pride here yeah it's not like pronounced like it used to be in the
press my teeth Chad hold on they still want to represent and you know with
Kaji and Nakanishi being the last one we've got a you know Kansai region
representative in Kaji who is originally from Osaka and then Nakanishi from Saitama which is more the Tokyo area.
So even in the end we still got one from both sides.
Everything has worked out. You've been talking about the regional battle.
We've been talking about the regional battle all night and we've also been talking about the old guard versus the new guard.
The old best vampire saving player versus the quote on Newer
Best vampire saving player so again Mr. Koji has been a legend in the scene for
years dropped out of play in the game for a while recently to started to play
again because of the announcement of this tournament. Nakanisha has been kind of
holding the torch and he's been gone and we're gonna see it. We're gonna see it.
It's incredible. Here we go. This is grand final for Vampire Savior at Evil Japan and don't forget
Evil World has Vampire Savior as well and I believe a lot of these players are gonna try to make it out
But this is
This is the one this is
Yeah, their country probably gonna have the most
And like I said, the Vampire Savior scene here is unbelievable.
Just so many players here who love this game, a passion for
this game that is unparalleled.
And they are all here watching here on the big stage.
And you know what?
I bet you neither of them are even thinking about the money right now.
They just want to win this.
I'm sorry, I'm looking at the screen behind me just getting
the chills right there.
So I'm gonna have a look at the finals.
Here we go.
Now I gotta turn around.
Let's go.
This is Kaji with the leg versus Nakanishi Bishiman.
EVO Japan 2026 Grand Finals. Let's go.
Alright, now he's with a huge lead right now.
Gigantically, tons of pressure.
Alright, Kaji got his first ball.
I'm sorry. Yes, Kaji got his first ball.
That means Eli is in effect.
They're next to knock down right there.
Remember, Kaji barely won the first time they fought against each other.
It was close.
Last game.
All right.
Oh, little jab inside.
Here we go.
Oh, you see the stagger right there?
That's one back down.
The fake dash into the crouching jab was...
All right.
Mm, interesting, Kaji.
I'm looking like he's having a little trouble navigating.
I was going to say, play a little reserve right now for being down to bat two?
Right.
So those single hit guard cancels from Vichymon, I mean they're very important for him
because he's got one of the fastest guard cancels in the game
and he doesn't really have like an actual VP.
Yeah, Kavi playing very slow right now.
He's got four bars to play with.
Here we go. Good defense.
on two back at five meters.
What is happening here?
OK.
OK, here we go.
We've got an L.I.M.
That's one back.
We talked about how much damage Lilith can do.
He's got four bars, two hits, and this can be a wrap.
Oh, we threw him back in the head.
Wow, he's accused the combo perfectly.
Again, do any favor, log in and hold
or try and do that combo right now.
Good luck.
It's so hard.
Good luck.
It's so hard doing that combo.
Good luck.
Man.
No Impa buffers in this game on normals.
Gotta have those timing perfect.
Yeah, you gotta be tight, man.
Right.
That's a Nakanishi game.
Number one, but again.
They started, they already finished a goddamn game.
Three out of five, two out of ten.
I think they finished a goddamn game.
That's a champion.
Okay.
Then she, you know, Kaji coming out of retirement,
can Nakanishi kind of cement himself?
Like he's like, you know what?
In all those years, you stopped playing.
Yeah.
I brushed my teeth so I can go to bed after this.
Straight to bed here we go
the four fears doesn't get
crouched
this time
with a nice little
here but
this is a lot of damage
holy shit
this is going to hit guard cancels
because again you have to input the dp in the time of the block stuff
what is it like 14 frames or something like that
it just depends on the move because the light ones have the shortest amount of time
I think the light ones have the shortest amount of time, oh.
Yeah, he's going to pull them in there and keep them alive.
Oh, my god.
And Nakanishi takes the first back.
Hold on.
OK.
That's about it.
That's about it.
Oh, my god.
That's a nice DP.
That's a nice DP.
Now, pursuit trickery.
Oh, you tried to poke in between with the chicken guard,
but the chain from Nakanishi pulling that up.
I get conscious looking at playing a different game
right now, right?
Like, I feel like I see this like much more aggressive.
I mean, obviously he's down, so he can't go in.
Oh boy.
But there it is again, that using the luminous illusion
just basically as a dash right there.
Oh my god.
Oh my no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
If you over there, you have to get and pursue your smart man.
So bro, he was winning.
He fought a little, who made him block.
Bro, he was winning.
Standing up.
And the little hit him low and he couldn't crouch.
because it was a multiple hit.
What was what we could have just seen?
Yes, yeah, uh-huh.
Potentially.
Good song, by the way.
The music, I mean, the music in this game is ridiculous.
All right, take it, take it a breath.
I'd like that.
Relax for a second.
Think about it.
Think about it.
You made a video about the cute thing on Twitter, I'll re-quit it.
scary she can also do jump fears of the jump roundhouse you can crouch early get hit by that
those those air streams are are trouble right
that's all mckay going on right now no player overextending too crazy i mean we are grand finals
we all are grand but nice warm up that makes beautiful stuff
oh hey oh got the throw out of it oh my god empty jump low so fuck
I
Again, you know
Missed it dropped it
I was just playing, not, for 10 years I stopped.
Ha ha ha.
Yeah, I wonder how long that break was.
I didn't get that information.
Okay, here we go.
Throw, we got a bat down.
All right, okay, it's looking okay,
Nakanishi's just trying to throw at the ground.
Oh, he's playing fucking fast.
Kaji's really trying to bring down
the pace of the match.
Trying to keep him in that corner,
but he's just trying to throw at the ground.
they play? Nakanishi's just gonna win. Oh my god, you're dead. Whoa. That was the
and justice mix up. Do you commit to it or not?
of taking EVO 2026 here in Japan.
One more game away.
But you know Nakanishi wants it.
There's no way he doesn't want it.
He's been waiting for this.
The old man came out of retirement.
And you know, I've had a lot to prove.
I'm too long.
Winning on this stage, this could be the last game.
Let's see if Nakanishi can get himself
a little bit closer to that reset, or.
Maybe the nerves are gonna get to him.
People will think these guys have played in situations like this before.
But this is different, man.
This is different.
Oh, that's very nice bunch of feet.
I assume that was so good.
That was like full screen.
You see him trading with the crouching fierce.
Gotta be careful when you go to the fireball.
Just walk in there and I'm sure what happened.
Okay, okay, okay, here we go.
Here we go.
I'm gonna go.
That's the weakness of did
Bishamon's dash and punches
right there and they hit
multiple times with their just
guard cancel father.
Nice.
Found a way to jump.
Holy shit.
It ain't me to come on the
super.
Oh.
He got him with the command
map.
I mean, look, if you get the strings back, first back, it's even.
It's even.
It's even.
Good.
Oh, that's blocking.
Look at cocky Chilling, man.
He's building meter.
Afraid to overestay.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
He wants to get some of this extra damage,
but yeah, you see little still life
because he keeps getting a little bit like that
from the white hole.
Yep.
Oh, I'm looking at him.
Look at him, smoking, walking across there.
I can play with him again.
How the fuck did you block all that oh my god, oh he dropped it
That could have been close to game
The fucking APM is crazy dude the goddamn APM is off the charts he did it again
That is gonna win!
No! There it is!
They have pursuits gonna do it!
Kaji maintains his title
as the strongest vampire savior player!
That's crazy dude.
That shit was insane.
I said you're gonna do a little bit of solution.
Oh my god dude.
That shit was insane.
What a goddamn top eight.
That might be one of my favorite top eights I've seen in a hell of a long time
That was wonderful, holy hell that was actually a wonderful top eight holy shit, dude
He's like the youngest. Yeah, that's what's crazy
All right chat we gotta call it
Jibbo show me show me
Have a recording of Q doing dashing and crouch so you can see
Look at the green box. It goes into his body as if he's about to super jump, right?
Yeah, you can throw this with an air throw
I
What
That's an anti-air throw super chat
He is being throw supered while he's on the ground that is fucking funny
So yeah, Q's Q's glitch in this is that when he goes into crouch state he can't be thrown
okay what a read what an insane read you can throw this with an air-throw
it's so fucking weird-looking never damn Q is terrible wow he's even worse his
greatest feature is now his worst strength. Anyway, I'm tired! Good night, everybody!
I'm just a hero for the common man
I'm just a hero for the common man
Yeah, to go searching for our star
Deep in the night, I'm buried in my heart
From that flash of love, you sure I will be found
You sure I will be found
You sure I will be found
I'm just a hero for the common man
