Also one of my favorite parts of Chase's videos. I honestly cannot stand when TH-camrs have some superiority complex because people aren't using what they think people should use.
ABSOLUTELY! This is why Chase is my favorite Invader! And I usually don't like invaders due to my DS1 and DS3 days... but Chase just brings an energy I have to route for!

why is nobody talking about the god level play at 10:45 ?? unlocks his charged R2 with the sub second realization enemy is parrying and free aims his attack away from the parry, what a god gamer
I was hating thinking he's cutting out all his losses, which I'm sure is still true, but after you pointed out that move I have to admit the dude is actually an S tier gamer. 🤣👏👏👏
Remember when Spider-Man caught the Winter Soldiers punch and said" Aw cool, you got a metal arm?" All of these fights have the same energy lol. Subscribed!
I'm happy for the invasion at the end, I have never invaded in a souls game before and those two guys were literally my first ever true experience PvPing in these games. Their strat is for the goat to go ahead and distract you while the caster/bleed build tries to one or two shot you by spamming spells, or roll catch you with RoB. Then they always proceed to t-bag and point down. So seeing them get easily delt with was satisfying, specially knowing they really aren't great players, I'm just trash at PvP.
Chase is one of the best examples of the community as he readily answers the questions or claims of weapon viability. They’re *all* viable if you’re good enough. Edit: gg Elika; represented that hammer well.
Hammers aren't as bad as people say. I would put them at around the same tier as straight swords. They have very similar swing speed, similar if not more damage than straight swords, and it does strike damage. The only downside is you don't get the AoWs that require thrusting.
I don't even do PvP, let alone invading. Idk, why I'm so addicted with his videos LOL. And now I do duels at Lucaria every now and then. Like 2 to 5 battles and back to boss coop.
Your videos are such a joy to watch compared to many others. A lot of creators seem to talk shit about everyone’s build or either have such a cocky attitude about themselves. That aside, loving the showcase so far! Can’t wait for the next one!
love the showcases, so many interesting things often overlooked by the "meta", this, your invasion builds streams and Prod's worst invader series are some of the best pvp elden ring content on the platform. also if i may say, try out the funny skeleton axe the Rosu's Axe, i got it a few days ago and the ash of war tickled the funny bone kinda silly but worth the try
i never really see you bait out attacks and then using backstep r1/r2s. some weapons have great backstep attacks too! Like nutty forward thrust which really catch people off-guard. love the content as always tho, ur the man the bro the legend
backsteps arent very good due to latency unfortunately. you can backstep out of range on your screen, but on theirs you might still be in front of them as they swing at you, causing you to get hit. they dont give any i-frames so you cant use them to disengage without risking getting smacked. if you do them at a distance then you're just telegraphing that youre gonna do a backstep attack. on inexperienced players it definitely could be good, but against a good opponent its just a waste of stamina
@@craig4300 depends on the weapon you and enemy are using but can be good for mixups roll back and then backstep follow up can be great if someone is pressuring you. Obviously not best to use it all the time cause its just one of those tools
If you plan on doing a showcase for a straight sword, try out the warhawk’s talon, the r2 is pretty good because of the lunge it has when it double hits. Pair that with storm stomp and theres some interesting potential.
Dueling that puts melania to shame 👌🏽 I would love to see some under used weapon, maybe powerstanced scorpions stinger daggers, or Selurias Tree Spear. Whatever it ends up being, you never fail to entertain, looking forward to next showcase.
@@rushpatriot2866 You can put Melania's in the main hand for PvE, Waterfowl works wonders against any staggerable target. For PvP though, Nagakiba with an ash of war is better
i love how you are keeping this series up nagakiba is washing pole anime is strong with this wep in my mind im really really looking forward to the day you showcase the golden order greatsword. amazing video praise be the sun fellow tarnished keep up the laughs and fun
Would you ever consider including dual wielding matches in your weapon showcases? Like maybe for 3/10 of the matches you use two of the weapon and talk about it’s moveset when pairing 2
I have two for powerstancing and it's great because they have the range of a spear. However, imo, katanas are one of the weaker powerstances and you can do just as well with two-handing or off-handing.
@@jquanisgone People really underestimate the crouch / roll attack on the katana. Dual Nagakiba crouch attack has huge stagger damage with decent range, I can usually catch greatsword / halberd users from their pokes and come out far ahead, even staggering halberd pokes before they come out.
@@XnathOW you are spot on it's a good mixup to use with one handed heavy running attacks as roll catches aswell. Standard r1s are abit better than the l1s tho imo other than for status build.
Yea I would definitely add power stance to the beginning of the video, but not use it, unless you have done the weapon a load as not to many different move sets.
Meteoric ore blade has a very nice kendo looking R2 and it scales with strength and intelligence, making it my favorite special katana Gravitas is an underrated skill imo, not too slow and people tend to panic with gravity effects
morgots curved sword that was the one the first guy you fought was using, you should maybe check that out next. Or the other great curved sword you mentioned but didnt know the name was the bloodhound's fang. both are decent weapons but are better on quality builds i believe? dont quote me lol. bloodhound fang can get some pretty nice AR. Morgot is a close second. but play diff because of their ashes of wars. love videos chase glad ive been able to catch a few live streams!
my go to ash of war is spinning slash with it, offers a lot of range all around, but also use sword dance or double slash as well. mostly spinning slash because sometimes they want to group on you and its nice to have that AOE attack to surprise them.
Hey Chase, could you perhaps try greatsword/katana on the right hand and straight sword on the left hand as a build. Wanna see if two different weapons with different attack speeds is viable in Elden ring, with the heavier weapon move set being completely availble and the straight sword used as chip damage. Great Vid!
Ive used the blade of calling dagger with morgotts sword for a themed build and it worked surprisingly well, tho i didnt use it in pvp so i cant say anything about that
I need to catch u on live so I can go challenge you chase. I got into pvp because of you and been using your style but now found my own style but still mix in some of your style too. I love playing pvp your way it’s so fun.
I loved how at 8:57 because of the fact you hit him from the side and the delay with the internet connection you did the anime samurai slash and go behind them and then they die thing. (also happened at 12:07)
Chase you need to try any katana with storm stomp and the hand of melania. the storm stomp can be used to stagger and combo into the waterfowl dance. it is really fun to do and not many people expect it so very few even see it coming and even those that do have problems dodging the combo.
yeah, Bloodhound's fang (the curved greatsword) is fairly easy to get, scales well with dex, has a good Ash of War, and is one of the few unique weapons that you can use buffs like bloodflame blade on, not surprised it's so popular
Chase these showcases are great, I've analyzed your movements and become better at pvp in general but you don't come across nearly as many rivers users as I do. I've beaten some but still a lot destroy me with 1 ash combo, my go to counter is to pull out a weapon with bhs but I'm getting sick of relying on it, at some point, I'd like to see how you deal with some of the more op weapons or spells like rivers.
I still wish they'd make an Odachi. The Sephiroth swords are kinda cool, but really played out in my opinion. It'd be nice to have a good cavalry weapon from the Samurai arsenal that acts more like a curved greatsword.
When using a melee build you could either put it in faith for temporary buffs (that people seem to hate now and some people will just straight up attack you for using one), or be able to wear half bullgoats for the same amount of points put into endurance with talismans, and you could buff yourself anyways with consumables so I don’t really see the point of buff builds in duels or see many of them in the first place.
11:40 Bloodhound's Fang is an incredibly good PvE weapon that you can get pretty early on. Besides having innate bleed buildup, the Ash of War is very powerful. After the initial AoW backflip slash, the follow-up heavy attack lunges you forward using Bloodhound Step into the Stamp (Upward Cut) AoW. Basically combines two Ashes of War together. Too predictable to use in PvE however. Might be good as a wake-up since you can delay the follow up attack a bit and/or change it's direction for a surprise turn and burn. Def not good in duels.
it was the weapon I used for my first playthru because of how cool it's AoW was. Later paired it with the Morgott sword + Dex Arcane build. Was the most fun I had until I discovered lightning incantations + guts sword build was my favorite in any souls game ever.
every duel ive seen you always get such honest opponents, i swear half of my duels are with idiots running stars of ruin and bloodhound step LOL, love to see this series is back btw
You probably hesitate to roll attack because it used to get punished with parries a lot. Unsheathe can be a mind game too. I used to play mind games with it in DS3 because it also has the really broad parry with a ton of parry frames and you could just hold the position. No one knows if you're waiting for an attack opening or a chance to punish with the parry. That hesitation by itself would often create the exact opening for one or the other that you're looking for. Also the rain can have a pretty cool effect sometimes. Like standing outside of War-Dead Catacombs it will straight up look like it's raining blood.
For those looking for a possible counter to Bloodhound steppers who are aggressive double slash is the ideal weapon art. Anticipating the dash or just L2 as then dash you will catch them at the end of their dash. This causes the to stagger and while you may take damage 50% of the time you will seriously deter them from spamming. I have had success with this strategy dueling with the serpent bone katana and think more people should know.
you should also try and get the rotten winged sword insignia which is also from Millicent's quest, or just get the normal winged sword insignia. Rotten greatly raises attack with succesive attacks, and stacks with prosthesis, and the normal one is just a nerfed version but still stacks.
Chase is one of the only elden ring invaders that don’t just go straight to bleeding u out from behind he makes sure u fighting only him and will even stop to let them kill mobs
Do a great hammer! I feel like you never see those anymore and so I got pretty excited when you fought that guy using the beastclaw hammer. Do one that's cool but you never see, like the Cranial Vessel Candlestand!
You know, the best thing about your vids is you don’t talk a lot of trash or belittle people when you stomp them. There’s so much positivity.

Glad to know I was doing something right with Nagakiba and double slash haha. I look to your builds for validation these days.
Spinning slash is better in every way
@@Chevalier_knight agree to disagree. Double slash has more range with less wind-up. They're both good skills in their own rites.

Give Dragonslayer Halberd a try. It even has a unique Spinning Slash Ash of War variant that inflicts frostbite.
Running attack with katana using unsheath ash of war has good mix ups. You Can do running attack and reaction rollcatch Them with l2+r2 or r1

Glintstone + nagakiba here too. People are sleeping on this combo, the range and damage on the enhanced R2 thrust is just nuts.
I can't wait until you get to the Bolt of Gransax, it's my fav weapon, especially paired with an offhand ss with Golden Vow
I know you already did the showcase but try piercing fang on the nightrider glaive (with poise) the tracking and range is crazy.

The moveset for this weapon is the exact same as the uchigatana in Dark Souls 1, thats pretty cool
Would be fun to see you try spacing Godricks Dragon Fist. Perhaps even try a heavy poise build to land the weapon art?
Double slash is soooo satisfying. I tried experimenting with other weapons in the game, but double slash nagakiba is always my go to 💪
That Garranq great hammer would make for an interesting video I think. You never see people use it. Maybe just one of the giant maces for AoW variety
you should also try and get the rotten winged sword insignia which is also from Millicent's quest, or just get the normal winged sword insignia. Rotten greatly raises attack with succesive attacks, and stacks with prosthesis, and the normal one is just a nerfed version but still stacks.

The amazing thing about Spinning Slash with Nagakiba is, you can delay the 2nd spin! Good for baiting and also useful against Malenia for stun locking

Blue Dancer Charm & RKR also works great with Naga.
Do a great hammer! I feel like you never see those anymore and so I got pretty excited when you fought that guy using the beastclaw hammer. Do one that's cool but you never see, like the Cranial Vessel Candlestand!
