Gankers Pay The Price - Crushing Defeats

- This gank hunting build is a combination of my normal setup and my failed strength build. Being in the forest hunter covenant means that my soul level doesn't matter considering i invade everyone. Note that i only have 31 poise despite my high endurance, because a good portion of it is so i can wear the most stylish armor possible (gotta look good while murdering gankers).
The crystal demon greataxe is extremely powerful, especially in red tearstone range. It takes a while for the durability to drain, and when it does, you can buy more of them from Shiva in Blighttown.
Those desperate for the backstab are very easy to bait into the R2 smash, and gankers chasing you are easy to bait into a jumping attack. I dislike doing quick-revolution backstabs even in the most extreme situations, so this build provides an excellent alternative.

There is no shame losing to a ganker. But there sure as hell is shame losing while ganking.
for some reason I find it hilarious when he switches from an uchigatana to a fucking demon greataxe
That first kill, beautifull
18:27 "sorry sir but this is a... *smashes and puts on sunglasses* no fishing zone" *queue "YEAAAHHHHHHHH!"*
Nine months... Nine months this went without a like.
Utterly criminal.
O my lord that double parry
This must be the first video of mine you have ever watched, lol. The large majority of my videos have music. I left music out of this one because there are a lot of subscribers who can't watch most of my videos due to copyright issues with the music i use.
I guess we have found the first born of Gwyn, it is Peeve. The first kill was absurd!
I feel like this video is a therapeutic treatment. When you suffer from chronic insanity due to excessive douchebags in dark souls, your local physician/psychologist will prescribed that you watch this twice a day until the symptoms of hatred for humanity subside.
My bad dude, i'll put a link at the end of the next video. For those who would enjoy a Dark Souls voice chat, go to KnightLautrec's TH-cam and check out his video "What Is 'Raid Call' Dark Souls Voice Chat".
i love how you are using they're moment of arrogance against them, never underrestimate you're opponent even if he has 1 health left o.o said no one who fought you ever!
This is the most ingenious tactic I have come across after watching alot of pvp. The Crystal demon axe for the double pancake is sublime. Im going to have to try it. You've inspired me
I still don't understand gankers. How is a two vs one even remotely challenging? even if they are bad at playing, they compensate with maxed gears: hornet ring and crystal magic spam. Unless the invader is really, REALLY good at playing, the fight would only last a few seconds ( at least I do last only a few seconds, and I win most of 1 vs 1, I consider myself an average player). So, how is that enjoying? To win like this is like crushing ants...I guess I'll never know.
cesverc Couldn't they just be using the ally to clear the area and explore? I mean, the phantoms are there to help with the game either way...
Or does it just make them a ganker when they intentionally take allies into PvP?
SwerveStarEx If they intentionally bring an ally into Pvp, they are gankers. And by ''intentionally'', I mean: they summon a phantom and then they both wait for invaders. If they only want to do Pve ( progress through the level and defeat the boss) then they are not gankers: even if they go 2 vs 1 against the invaders it's ok, because it's a random invasion. But it's really naive to even think that a person would summon a phantom in the forest to defeat the boss: the forest it's a hot pvp areas, almost 99 % of white and yelllow phantoms will be there to pvp ( and gank). After all, invasions in the forest are level based: so if I'm level 125, I will be invading a host above level 100, who wouldn't need any help by phantoms to defeat Sif ( unless it's NG+++ or something like that)
cesverc Right, that makes sense. Thank you for the explanations.
I'd like to point out that even though I have Dark Souls, I haven't played that far into it since my computer runs it too slowly. I know about most of the game because I have a friend who loves it to death, and because of research I've done online. Because of this I don't really know the meta of each individual area. It makes sense that the forest would be a hot PvP area, though, seeing that people from the forest covenant are allowed to freely invade and such.
Again, thanks for the explanations.
SwerveStarEx you're welcome! The way I see it is just the way most of the community sees it. there are also some people who thinks there should be no rules and who love to gank and things like that.
SwerveStarEx They don't "freely invade" it has level restrictions but it's wider than a standard red orb invasion. The level range is: your level -10% of your level -10 and up. So if you're level 125 you can invade everyone who is 103 and up.
Parry windows are generally the same, but they can be thrown off depending on the other player's connection/location. You're always going to have to zone-in on parry windows based on the player as well as the weapon itself. Plus, i don't edit out anything just to make myself look better.
nice double parry at 2:00!
If you'd like to see me 100% out of my comfort zone, watch my video "Random Souls - Weapon Master". It actually got pretty fun to use, but it's definitely a crazy matchup of random weapons.
Has anyone noticed that Strength builds are doing better than ever with the removal of poise in DS3? You'd think it would be the opposite, huh?
probably because strength builds have their own poise with most strength weapons having hyper armor
Finally someone who gets it!

Where is Luna
I come back to this video often. It does my heart good to see you flatten people with that petrified tyrannosaur hip-bone.
once a upon a time two people tried to gank me
the first one fell and the other fled
ran like a bitch and hid like a wussy
and then i heard his breathing in a vase
and. kicked. his. ass.
10/10 story.
This is easily one of my favorite Dark Souls videos ever. I love the Demon Greataxe, and seeing it put to such good use makes my heart swell with joy. My success rate in these things is very low, but I think it's because my build is kind of one-dimensional. I should make a good non-focused build at some point.
Host at 6:35 tried to blessing. Got him in time. NICE.
10:05 - 500 damage headshot. NICE.
I once invaded the world of a Ciaran cosplayer with the ring of fog and she/he had a Artorias cosplayer summon
When I (obviously) got rekt, I didn't know if to feel enraged or man, was that cool
I invaded some guy with two summons that were very similar to your story. I invaded an Ornstein cosplayer who had Artorias and ciaran with him. Which is kinda funny cuz I was cosplaying smough Me: " I'm sorry my friend but I must kill you and your friends" Ornstein: "TRAITOR"
who won?
+Giacomo Meluzzi ornstien killed Daniel months ago that's why he's not here anymore.
Just go to my stream, hit Follow at the top left, and check your email...if i'm streaming, it'll tell you.
..This is the most unlaggy dark souls run I've ever seen.
It's people like you that makes me join the Darkwraiths on every playthrough.
this is the greatest ganker revenge video and build i have ever seen. what made me a believer and a sub'er in you is the fact there are points in this vid and others where you are getting ganked and they start to bs fish and you ALWAYS end up where you could backstab them instead for like a 2 second count yet you dont and STILL kill them. keep up the good work. you just got one more sub ;)
Very nice display of skill and tactics, I wish more people where as fortunate as you when being ganked. True skill indeed.
Hornet ring, as far as me and my livestream could figure, has been nerfed to 30%.
That double kill at the beginning was SO DAMN BEAUTIFUL. I'd pay to see the faces of those two!
Peeve is such a technical player. I love watching all of the methods he employs to fake out opponents.
your expertise with the demon's great axe is astounding
I know the layout of the forest for the most part. There are times when i lose track of where i am, so i'll unlock and spin the camera to try to figure it out.
1:45 can we just take a moment to realized the fact that Peeve just parried TWO people at once?
i did that but in pve
SeEpiN Shh, just shhh, we know.
***** He also parried the world, so two people isn't that big a deal.
***** You do not know what parry spam is. 7:14 Watch that host for a while, what he's doing is really parry spamming. Peeve was being persistent with his own, he's not mashing his parry button like it's going out of style when he's two inches from the guy's face, he's blocking the first attack and attempting to parry the follow up. Peeve failed that parry because the Black Knight Greataxe has a pretty strange window to parry.
***** parrying twice isn't spamming.
The backwards slam down attack is hilarious and you have an amazing parry response timing
Lol, actually i was struggling at some points for even the simplest BKGA parries. That match with the double parry had the right parry windows because they were from the United States, but for the majority of the other matches i kept getting paired up with people from foreign countries like Italy, Australia, and Germany. This threw off the parry windows a good bit, but i think i might start checking their location as i'm connecting to the match. If it's another country, i'll parry much earlier.
That Crystal Demon Greataxe is so damn awesome in the hand of a player who knows how to wield it, love the videoes man.
Could you not see it on mobile?
Sometimes I like to play this video in the background, because just hearing the sound of gankers being destroyed makes whatever I'm doing better.
Seeing that axe drop on helpless gankers gets me every time.
Dude that backwards Crush you do LOL. Shits hilarious. You weren't kidding about the crushing part.
Those finishing blows never get old, man.
"Elemental big sword" pretty much sums up your knowledge and respect of Dark Souls.
The fact that your wins in this are not from you just fishing for backstabs makes it all the more enjoyable.
This is my favorite PvP video for so many reasons
Because of this video, you are now my fav dark souls player. Ive only beaten a 3v1 gank twice and a 2v1 a couple times but you do it here consistently and skillfully. I will also be trying a red tearstone/PW combo in my new build inspired by your skill. So Thank you. I hate Gankers...
Haha, well my timing was correct, it's just due to the times i was playing, i was connecting with people from other countries, throwing off the normal parry timings.
You sir, brought back my hope in humanity just a tiny bit.
1:58
Okay, when you parry two people simultaneously, you are automatically one of the most badass fighters alive. Period.
Gankers : The shotguns and light machine guns of Dark Souls
That surprise smash with the axe never gets old. :D
Watching these makes me sad that I missed this games most active times.
I love this video, this is redemption for all of us who fall prey to gankers of any kind!
Love those Red Tearstone finishes. They're great.
Best pvp video EVER :D
Peeve, i just want to thank you for the 20 minutes of greatest anti-gank gameplay i have ever seen. And from the depths of my heart, tell you, you are my favorite DaS player ever!
Amazing skill and execution .Bravo.
JESUS CHRIST, now that's what I call "Crushing Defeats"!
They NEVER saw that OHK coming.
ok ill be honest the great axe slam turn around has left me amazed and now I wanna try that *_*
...the best feeling ever in Dark Souls, owning gankers.
2:21 Peeve: You just activated my trap card *troll face*
*pulls axe* *kills the invaded* dead.
I appreciate the bold PVPers who strive to destroy gankers wherever they may be, fighting for a brighter.... dark... souls!
"They're invaders, not duelists." That is a great comment. That's essentially how I go about my invasions as a Blade of Darkmoon. I will allow people to kill enemies that might go aggro, I'll not go for back stabs, and I won't heal. If the other person heals, runs (turns their back), goes fishing, or summons phantoms, I'll pull everything out in an effort to kill the hapless bastard. I leave dueling to the 'Duel Stone' (Red Soapstone).
Man that kill at 6:39 while he tried to DB was amazing
That R2 baiting technique is just sooo good! Hilarious stuff Peeve!
that double match hammer kill was amazing
Shurg into parry true combo
2012-13 Peeve be in my recommended. Noice.
Beat my first 3v1 today! They all had full havels and a family mask, with BKGA. Thanks for the parry the world vid, otherwise I would have lost so bad
After being gank about a billion times, this is actually very amusing to watch :)
I'm amazed by how you never healed through everything. You're god at this.
Can't believe this video is 4 years old.... damn. CAN'T WAIT FOR DARK SOULS 3!!!
Haha thanks man, glad to hear it.
That first round finish with the leaping smash on both of them... That is one of the most satisfying things I've seen on another person's recorded play! Honestly, I yelled "BURN" in a Kelso voice when you landed on them. This is beautiful.
This'd explain the build I saw you using out the forest. Hope to see you again out there!
Peeve, you always seem to encounter the worst type of people in multiplayer but you handle it so well. Being fairly new to the multiplayer experience, the way you play is pretty inspirational and watching you and other Dark Souls youtubers has set a precedent for the kind of experience we all hope to engage in: a system of honorable, dignified encounters. Keep gank spanking, show the idiots of the world how true DkS master does it.
I was about to compliment Peeve on his comeback victories, then I realized that Peeve was winning all of these matches from the start.
You are an amazing pvp fighter. I love how you swich target and consume your victims.
Dear Peeve:
I must thank you, I learned almost everything I know about Dark Souls PvP from watching your videos, I use to be terrible at PvP, but from watching your videos, i have learned how to adapt to peoples build, parry, and a code a honor, to not chain back stab, back stab fish, and to not use the Hornets Ring. Thank you once again.
1:11 No joke after i saw that i think i had to pick up my friggin eyes off the floor. that was friggin awesome.
Your completely fine. A ganker is someone who summons a phantom (it could or could not be a friend) and sits there waiting for dark phantoms so that they could kill them by attacking at the same time.
Always got to look stylish, got to respect that
Great video Peeve! And I would agree that you were struggling to parry the BKGA haha. I practiced that a lot because it's such a popular weapon.
this is my Favorite Dark souls PvP video, bar none
Beautiful timing at 7:30...congrats to you sir.
This my friends is how to make a gameplay video. No obnoxious intros. No 10 minute explanation before actually doing anything. No special effects. No obnoxious and irrelevant speech. No teenage giggling. No stating the obvious. No 420 wub wubs or Linkin Park music. No shitty capture software. No "this video was uploaded from an Android phone". Just clean, simple, actual fucking gameplay. How the FUCK can so many people get it so wrong?!
lol, I love how the first two got so over confident with his health so low and then just got slam-dunked
the first win was the best, so perfect.
Glad to see there's still good hunting after my break from DkS. My SL 85 Shiva has been slaughtering gankers (still getting wrecked by Dark sorceries and well executed ambushes, but meh) and slowly racking up indictments. Already a Forest Hunter+3, and I owe it to watching Peeve and others.
Exactly. I always bow everywhere I invade, except for the forest, because honor is next to nonexistent in that situation. Honestly I'm wondering if I'll ever see the time you invaded my world lol. Now I'm looking forward to making a whack-a-gank build.
Lol thanks. I'm actually very against one hit kill setups, but in this case i figured given the circumstances it's justified. Using it against gankers, and only being one hit kill when i'm really low HP makes it risk vs reward. I understand where you're coming from though so it's cool. No skill in pressing one button to win.
That last battle. Holy fucking shit
Forest guardians are thy ass kickers for thy sir artorias.
thank god you put that message with the dance
As merf1212 said, friendly phantoms get healed when the host drinks estus. Also, you get an additional estus when someone in a nearby world kindles a bonfire.
On my first playthrough I joined the forest hunters since I loved the idea, lore, and feel of the covenants. Gankers really fucked that up for me back then. I now feel avenged.
Under 20% of your max health, when the Red and Blue Tearstone Rings take effect.
Dat first invasion. WOAH nice shot
I watched this video like a hundred times for no real reason.
I'm one of those people that like to pick fights in this part of the forest. I summon a friend, and we each take turns fighting a phantom. We don't gank, and if there's 2 phantoms against us, we each take 1, so it's more like a 1v1/1v1.
Not everyone who summons a phantom in forest is a ganker.
I'd also like to add that I love this video and sometimes the parries were a bit too early or late, but it could just be a kind of 'in the moment' thing.
at 3:32 , that was so DIRTY and GOOD!
I'm guessing you pushed up on the left stick at the last second to turn around and hit him? Damn Peeve, you always bring up some new tactic we've never see, and make it look godly :D
Just a bunch of family mask wearin', estus chuggin', great shield wieldin', WOTG spammin', BK great axe usin' asshats... That's all gankers are and all they ever will be. Here's to the underdogs!
a true legend at work
You my friend, are a hero among men.
Cleaned up the comments section as best i could.
