Lenny - Please make a channel where you just upload raw dumps of your twitch streams ("TwoLenny"?!?)! I need more of your content, but my schedule doesn't line up with your streams.
Hey Lenny. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the hard work you put into these videos, and I just wanna make sure you know that when chat makes the billionth "it floats down" meme all we are really saying is we love you and everything you do!
@@TheKillaShow Nah, you can roll/jump it all reliably with the right timing and angle. It just takes a bit to learn. Add a shield and it gets even easier.
love mods that add deflecting as a basic feature, it enables my fantasy of playing a heavily armored knight that just deflects attacks with their sword
Radahn was serving my ass on a golden plater until I decided to suck it up and use a shield. I used that “reflect” tear then Radahn went from the most BULLSHIT I’ve ever experienced in a boss fight to the most FUN i’ve had in a while. Now I wanna play throughout the whole game like this!
Ngl, saying you only take the sponsorship for free posters is a really good ad tactic. Because you are 1. Telling the viewer you like the product so much that you want more, and 2. Showing that it isn't a paycheck making you say positive things as you just want more posters(which feeds into point 1)
I've been having a rough day today cause my family cat passed away this morning after living with us for ten years. I remember Lenny mentioning people watching his videos to help them cheer up so I've been going on a marathon of them today. They're right, these videos helped me a bunch today. Thanks Lenny, never stop with the kittie memes!
Really makes me want to try the tear, maybe not exclusively like this (although it was a trip to watch) but integrate it with the other options like you said. Another banger from the man himself.
Hey Mr. Lenny. I wanted to say thank you for your time and effort. I was just reminiscing this morning of when I moved to a new place a few years ago, and I didn't have much, but I had a wifi connection in that efficiency hotel room, and I could watch your stuff. It meant so much to me at the time. Thanks man.
Not just that tear, but just using guard counter is great even if you aren't using the tear. The dlc bosses are just more suited for it and the tear makes it even better. Loved playing through Erdtree bosses mostly using guard counters. Especially fights like Messmer, Midra and Rellana. The last boss also kind of. Fun to try to to abuse the guard counters and watch him seethed for half a second after one
I’m always so happy to see a new Lenny video! Your good vibes and hilarious humour always make my day. I rewatch the IGN series on basically a weekly bases now, idk what it is there’s just something so oddly comforting about watching your videos. They’re wholesome and funny and that’s the best combo ever, love you Lenny, cheers from Canada
I would just like to add that it was great seeing your dlc build because I did pretty much the exact same thing as you, so it's nice watching you feed my superiority complex
The deflect tear and dueling shield got me through the final boss. It’s amazing, because after every attack the shield also acts as a shield, so if you time it right you can have a beautiful flow of attacks and deflects that don’t interrupt the combo.
Lenny man I've been here since 2017 watching these videos with my friends in school and i must say you're one of the few youtubers I've really stuck too over the years evan after graduating. You make some truly quality stuff here for us audience to enjoy and we do appreciate it. I can probably speak for everyone when i say that but i definitely do appreciate the effort you've put into entering me. Thank you Lenny
Did most of the DLC with the Dryleaf arts paired with the deflect tear and there is nothing more satisfying than deflecting these monsters with your barehands and then eviscerate them with martial arts, i can reccomend anyone try that combo out, its so much fun.
@@jakestaheli8532 I feel it's too powerful to be a talisman. Talisman give like 10-25% stat bonuses on certain things, not completely change how you can play a character.
@@TuxedoKamina radagons soreseal, two handing talisman, the maxed out drake talismans, the great jar arsenal talisman, there are plenty of talismans that are super op, having this as one of them wouldn't be too bad.
The only thing i really miss of the old silent content (the one with the robotic voice) is your ispirational montages on hard bosses I use to be at work struggling and thinking "if Lenny did Orphan of Kos at lv1, i can get to the end of the day alive"
This one thing was probably what I was most excited about using out of everything in the DLC. I know he's said he didn't enjoy Lies of P, but how that game did combat and parrying really resonated with me, and it instantly rose to one of my very favourite games. And now, I can get that kind of gameplay in Elden Ring? I'm beyond excited for going through the main game with this Tear, it's so satisfying to use!
Dark Souls 2: 2 confirmed to have epic battle pass filled with microtransactions! Who could've done this? Dark Souls 2? Yeah! That's him officer right there! YES, INDEED.
God damn mate you make the best souls content on the platform bar none, also i wish they would just retroactively go back and put deflecting and guard counters in all the souls game, might actually make dark souls 2 a great game
Well this is some funny timing to see, considering I'm in the middle of a no rolling run myself so of course Lenny just takes it to the next level lol Heavy agreement on his point around Margit though, had the same issue doing a similar run in DS3 - getting knocked down (which can happen a lot against big bosses) is crazy lethal because you can't roll to get back up.
Don't know if anyone said it but you can completely skip stormveil castle by getting the servant who tells you about the secret way into the castle to raise the main gate. Then you can just run straight to the boss room without fighting through the walls and main castle.
When the easiest way to beat Malenia in the base game was greatshield + rapier, it's unsurprising that the healback is not a real issue with the deflect tear. People overrate the importance of the healback because it feels extremely frustrating when you're struggling against the boss and trying to heal and run away and so on and the boss that is already hard is actively deleting your progress against it, but it's basically nothing when you're using a strategy that allows you to deal consistent damage and also avoid most damage.
I still have to test that, But the Fun of the Deflecting Tear for me is that for some reason I fell you can to a Guard counter much earlier and faster than before; This makes Guard counters so much fun
they guard counter on milady/light greatswords is rather nice as well because you advance while you do the attack, might help for some of the range and aim issues, though i know i didn't make it to the streams to suggest this live i figured i might as well say it for other people who are interested
I think that the best way to use this Hardtear (which i think you may have said in the video) is to not substitute the roll with it, because it simply doesnt work for a lot of attacks, but it can be used to nullify a lot of attacks that you just cannot get the timings for (obviously the Cross Slash is the biggest example of this)
Even pre-deflection tear, blocking was always the way to deal with waterfowl. Just have to make sure you're wearing the greatshield talisman. Sure, the healback sucks, but it's a lot easier than trying to dodge it.
Pretty sure you can't dodge all attacks in Sekiro, you don't get i-frames the sale way you do in other Fromsoftware games. And believe me, banning dodge roll is the only way for this to be a challenge run 😅
@@Ron_Jambo_ sure, it ain't as big as I-frames in other From titles but there's still enough to style on Demon of Hatred and Monke Having a heavy load could probably emulate it enough
@@janogabor7697 ye there are good ones but none of them feel as impactful as this, changing the way you play this much deserved tho my comment was kind of a nothing comment tbh

Hey Lenny. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all the hard work you put into these videos, and I just wanna make sure you know that when chat makes the billionth "it floats down" meme all we are really saying is we love you and everything you do!
but also it floats down
It may float down but our love for Lenny floats up
When my mood floats down, I can guarantee Lenny floats me back up ❤
We love him as much as we float down with him!
So what you are saying is you all float down here 🤔 😏
The sheer number of attacks that can be completely nullified by this hardtear is fucking INCREDIBLE!
As it should be, the true sekiro experience
Almost like the bosses are designed for sekiro gameplay…
@@TheKillaShow Nah, you can roll/jump it all reliably with the right timing and angle. It just takes a bit to learn. Add a shield and it gets even easier.
@@TuskyBaby sekiro would be more fun. You actually feel like a badass. Instead of ER where you’re just a victim rolling around to get one hit in.
@@TheKillaShow So does this whole video where thats not happening at all just... not exist? You're so goofy bro
I swear, reusing Dark Souls 2 intro at the start of your videos will always be funny 😂
it gets even funnier the second time!!!! Hah!.... wait... **second time**.... hah..
@@ZeroLenny This is so funny it reminds me of when I got out of my bed, looked at my slippers and said "Get ready boys I'm gonna float down" 😂😂😂😂
@@ultragamer4465 I was there!!! he did float 'down' !!
What do you mean Dark Souls "2"????
If it's so good, why isnt there a second time 2??
As-soon-as I saw you deflect Radahn's cross slash, this Hardtear instantly went to S tier for me.
This Zero Lenny upload makes me go from sad crying kitty to happy party kitty
thats true emotion right there
I'm a sucker for every time Lenny says "Ello love" to Melina. It's just peak.
Lenny after Morgott: "Ello luv."
Melly: "Hello again ;)"
@TriforceWisdom64 I swear it's like crack every time I hear it, it makes me laugh like an absolute sap
Now play Sekiro as Elden Ring
Nothing but combat arts
@@leonardo9259 ichimonji spam is already basically that
Exp grinds for hours for waterfowl
Demon of Hatred is basically an ER boss
love mods that add deflecting as a basic feature, it enables my fantasy of playing a heavily armored knight that just deflects attacks with their sword
And now it's in the game without mods
Only 5 minutes at a time between grace sites. That's not what he means. @@shinobiofashina2168
Historically accurate
It's the deflecting hard tear, get it from the first fire golem in the dlc
I love the way the clip at 48:40 just abruptly cuts with Lenny saying "AWW SHIT" while Malenia is about to waterfowl
Radahn was serving my ass on a golden plater until I decided to suck it up and use a shield.

My condolences.
Deflecting hardtear makes consort actually look fun. I didn't think that was possible.
"Just another beautiful day in Caelid... What the fucking hell is that?" lmao i cant breath. it got me
Pretty sure the bullet from the black steel greathammer scales with faith, which explains why it did disappointing damage on str build.
"HE SPEAKS ITALIAN??" Caught me completely off guard and I'm losing my shit at 7am, thanks Lenny!!
Thanks for convincing me to do a torch playthrough. They were surprisingly viable!
Don't sleep on the burny sticc.
Really makes me want to try the tear, maybe not exclusively like this (although it was a trip to watch) but integrate it with the other options like you said. Another banger from the man himself.
Gonna try it on convergence so I can get the tear straight away, gonna be fire

they dropped Sekiro 2: Electric Weeabo!
Him going " 'ello love" whenever Melina appears is criminally underappreciated.
There better not be any shpooky fokken ghosts in this video Lenny or my mum will be very cross

Hype!

My rabbit died of a head injury yesterday and it really made me happy watching this, thank you Lenny ❤
Ik you won’t see this, but I got a new bunny and I named him Messmer, messy for short :)

masterpiece of a video
Deflect Tear really should have been a Great Rune effect.
nah, then you would not even be able to use it in coop, which would limit its uses, and would be annoying to keep having to use rune arcs
@@johngoogle7037 Better than having to interrupt your gameplay every 5 minutes having to sit at a bonfire just to recharge your entire playstyle.

You can actually block with the Throwing Daggers without a sheild, since its a single-slot paired weapon.

This has reminded me to use guard counters... or even guarding in general
Using that tear next run to completely trivialize this game. You never cease to amaze me, dude.
This is how the game is meant to be played btw if you remember that old video on reddit showcasing Elden was originally Sekiro 2
God damn mate you make the best souls content on the platform bar none, also i wish they would just retroactively go back and put deflecting and guard counters in all the souls game, might actually make dark souls 2 a great game
Battlepass ZL lore is the gift that keeps on giving.
Seeing "don't skip this" over the ad was all the encouragement I needed to not skip it 💞
s tier tear, its THE absolute game changer.
The black steel hammer is best when sacred infused. The shockwave does more damage, and a lot of poise damage.
I lol'd pretty hard when radahn floats up
Love the fossil center music after mohg
Well this is some funny timing to see, considering I'm in the middle of a no rolling run myself so of course Lenny just takes it to the next level lol

Yeah, I'm a badass.
I skipped the ad even when it told me not to B)
I think the Smithscript Cirque blocks with the L1 from recollection and has a throw counter, it's really smooth looking too.
The accelerated movement of this object in particluar is moving down on thr Y axis slowly.

Beast Clergyman is especially good for deflecting melee-wise because his moveset is almost entirely Guardian Ape's sword phase from Sekiro.
it floats down
God I wish this effect lasted until death, like the Priestiess or Rock Hearts or it could have been a great rune effect
This man just became the meme, and all my dark souls brothers and sisters say it with me now! "Parry This You Filthy Casual!"
Lenny didn’t even try to block with the daggers lul
It's a fine damn day when Lenny boy uploads
this was a lot of fun to watch great run Lenny
I still have to test that, But the Fun of the Deflecting Tear for me is that for some reason I fell you can to a Guard counter much earlier and faster than before; This makes Guard counters so much fun
I was hoping this would be the norm before the base game released. I suck at Sekiro but I really like that combat system.

Imma be honest, you can dodge in Sekiro I think completely banning the dodge doesn't make this the optimal version of this challenge.
Pretty sure you can't dodge all attacks in Sekiro, you don't get i-frames the sale way you do in other Fromsoftware games. And believe me, banning dodge roll is the only way for this to be a challenge run 😅
