I didn't touch Idv at all after Season 2 and then I decided to play again last year using priestess on my first game. When I see the hunter go through the portal, I got jumpscared so hard I screamed. 😅
@@fany6746 Yeah. Whenever I play the old survivors I was like "Did it used to be like this? I think it used to be different. Wait, did I remembered it wrong?" I was confused the whole time 😅
When a survivor is on the rocket chair and hunter is 18 meters away, hunter gains a 10%/15%/20% (depending on mastery) chance to apply Doom Shock and produce double Fear when attacking.
@@SigmaSantiSo it was a thing on the persona web where if a survivor was on a rocket chair, the hunter had a X% chance to down the survivor near the chair(mostly the rescuer ofc) even if they were at full health. So it kinda was a terrorshock but based on luck, as a way of saving the game for the hunter
13:45 For those who don't know what Doom Shock is (i searched it up) : Apparently back in the day it was a persona web talent that was luck based. When someone was 18 meters away from an active rocket chair, there was a 10/20/25% chance (depending on how many points you put in your persona web) the hunter would insta down you. The hunter eyes would glow yellow at this moment (we can see them glowing like detention if you look) . So yeah, completely broken lmao, i'm glad i never got to know it in game x)
it's really crazy to see how much the meta has changed... with goatman and hullabaloo, I wonder how much it's gonna change in the future. Hoping to see Joseph meta soon 😈🙏
The doctor running away after the cipher pop in the geisha match was insane.... the animation looked so funny why was she that fast... the lack of skill both sides had is quite something, but at least it gave for a good laugh!
I love when you post old COA videos cause it gives back the hunter variety on a massive scale it’s so much fun. (Also I started playing in 2021 so it’s interesting to see how much of the new gen experience I got 💀)
yeah i remember only seeing on person pick it ever. which was funny because when someone in chat did the "123" i was paused to even remember what 12 was LOL
i joined during coa3 and have watched chinese tournie since then. it's wild to see these considered old now and how much the meta has changed... every time you talk about a newer adjustment i'm like "i remember when it was like [pre-adjustment ability] before" 😩 it's interesting to see a newer player's perspective!
About in 0:35 there were a lot of people who cant go rank cuz of coa (my friends included) thats why rank queuing is so slow and also around the time before the mail, people got ping spiked during matches such as 900+ pings
i joined in late 2019 when i was very young so i didnt remembered most of how it was the gameplay around that time. this video was genuinely very interesting to watch !!! its crazy how things changed and it's good that the game is so much more balanced now. i have always loved idv and im so glad that even after all these years the game is still very fun (at least to me)
Bro it is so unique to see coa matches from way back, i basically dont know anything about how idv was way back, but i love to see the matches!! Like bro, merc 5 elbow pads and you can't go through priest portals?? Nahhh i would have quited😭 13:48 WAIT WHAT????? I NEVER KNEW THIS WAS A THING HUH?? YO....I DIDNT KNOW THERE WAS SUCH THING AS DOOM SHOCK, THIS IS OP WHAT 19:47 what in the...... what am i looking at, but i cant lie.... THEY ARE BREAKING IT DOWN🔥🔥🔥🦅🦅🦅 21:25 its funny cause last time you reacted to past coa matches, you made the same mistake by switching magician and merc items HELP 22:18 ohhhhh no butterflys? I didnt knew that was a thing also, damn....idv in the past was defintley something huh... 29:00 Ah yes, the bq meta era, i wonder if she would still be played if she still had an instant mirror in the beginning👀 29:23 thank you 10 hour clown vs priest match for making this priest change possible🙏 36:56 NO WAY, COWBOY???? its so weird seeing a minds eye and cowboy in the same team in coa LMAO man its been some time since we had a cowboy in coa cooking💔 1:03:04 Im sorry but it looks like that one picture of gi-hun (player 456) in squid game season 2 when he had to smile for the picture thing but just looked serious😭😭😭😭 I had so many thoughts for this video, its so interesting to just see idv back then!!!
It’s kinda crazy how much has changed.., not just survivor skill and hunter but even maps😭 like double window at hospital and the one pallet near factor of Leo memory.
as someone who has been playing since 2019, i dont regret taking breaks that lasted for genuine years now. sure i missed a lot of content and crossovers, but the balance..
This is so nostalgic! I remember playing for the first time in 2018 and later deleting the game cause i got bored of it but then redownloaded in 2020 deleted it in 2021 and redownloaded again in 2024 due to finding your channel and missing it! But i was so confused on what flywheel was LMAO
Oh god I miss old 9 so much. The fact that you could have tide AND boost from pallet was such a game changer… But they nerfed it bc of old flywheel. It was even more broken back in days + you had pallet boost with it And coa4… first coa that I watched from the beginning till the end. And it’s still the best for me. Btw GG won it and ppxia was the hunter
this brings me back... the meta sure has changed a lot! i was actually hoping to see an old tourny commentary from you and i got my wish!!! hope you do more of these. i remember back then in an naeu summer tourny one of the players played gardener before the gardener change (hunters needed to use abnormal to fix the chairs) and it was absolute mayhem
this feels like such a fever dream like DOOM SHOCK?? THE PRIESTESS PORTALS?? i feel faint if i ever feel that the game is unbalanced rn i’m just gonna remember this era
wish i played more during coa 2, but unfortunately had to take a break from the game for quite a while. seeing how this game grew and improved is fascinating either way
I'm writing this as I'm watching to fill you in on some things you may not know or seem confused on - I figure some people may find it interesting, too! COA II Matches: At the time, Doctor did not heal chip damage to herself, it was always a full heal, though she was still the only one who could heal chip damage off other survivors & herself. Geisha could still use her skill to drop-down hit, but it was in the slower way, where you would go up, immediately go back down, and charge attack to cancel attack recovery. Doom Shock was where Wither currently is in the Persona Web. People would often bring it when facing Perfumers for that sweet RNG instadown. ~ COA III Matches: I'm unsure if the mirror outline was visible at this point - judging from how the survivors are moving, I assume it is, but it wasn't always that way. As you can see, Bloody Queen is quite a bit faster at this time; when she was first implemented, her base speed made her one of the fastest-walking hunters in the game yet, which is why Hunt would often be used to compound that. The global mirror sound may or may not have been implemented by this point. The original Knee-jerk reflex trait was located just before Broken Windows on the Persona Web, where Muscle Memory is today. At this time, Luchino's cooldown was shorter, but he could only hold up to 100 energy, so conserving it was much more important. His crash could only hit one survivor, even if there were multiple in the radius. In COA III, one-tap lasso WAS still a thing, as far as I can recall. I don't know if he could lasso pallets or ciphers yet. Trump Card was implemented either during or shortly before the time COA III was taking place. You said the DW has Patroller for the whole game, but you can see she later on has Blink - the text notification for trait swap wasn't present, but I believe the noise was there. The trait it replaced was actually Wanted Order, which was the final trait on the right side of the Hunter Persona Web - it still exists today, as I'm sure you know, but the only real difference between it then & now is the minor speed debuff. Pocket Watch was only one use, if I recall - at least, it would certainly be for anyone other than Officer. I think this was after the original (and terrible) function of it, which was causing an illusion of yourself to run in a straight line. ~ COA IV: Leo's Memory has had many changes, but almost all of them were exclusively to Factory itself. The inner stairs used to wrap around to the window near Basement side, and there was a pallet on the upstairs above the current downstairs doorway pallet. I believe the current upstairs window area used to be a pallet & a window, one after another? I could be wrong, but I do remember there was a pallet where the window is now. 1:03:59 WAITWAITWAIT IS THAT THE EVERSLEEPING MATCH EYEAHHHH YEAHHHH I LOVED WATCHING THIS LIVE TRAMMMM WOOOOO ...Okay, irrelevant. I'm pretty sure they WERE playing from their homes, since this was during the peak of COVID, and I don't believe travel was possible. This may also be why they appear to be vaulting/moving slower at times. Fun fact, you can see small pink-purple text/particles appearing from time to time (1:05:29) on the Sculptor in this match; if I'm not mistaken, that is because she is using one of the now-removed Marks to get more deduction points in the match... for some reason. I don't really know why one would do that in tournament. For fun, I guess? 1:06:02 tram hit 1 You probably know this, but Sculptor's full-presence statues had no delay before shooting towards survivors post-creation. 1:13:25 I believe Sxy from XROCK is still around in some current team, but I could be wrong. 1:14:49 tram hit 2 You can tell I started getting tired. If anything needs to be worded differently, clarified, or have a timestamp added, please let me know! I love to yap about the changes in-game over the years.
i remember i was playing when merc had 5 elbow pads, you needed abnormal to fix gardener chairs and when mech didn’t lose progress when she didn’t have her bot go down when she wasn’t usimg it LOL
@nesutei ive been playing since 2019 and thats what i remember iirc (or coud be my memory failing me) but they changed it just a bit afterwards (oh and what i initially meant was that you cant see her mirror through walls/across the map)
its been a long time but I'm pretty sure doc had to fully heal herself and didn't heal chip by chip so the healing was longer than it is now. I never really played doc much back when i first started (around the start of coa 3, though she could've had an adjustment before then) so i defo could be wrong.
Yesss yes yes omfg I remember when i started playing again and was playing doctor, once I noticed it was a chip and not the full 50% heal I almost genuinely crashed out like bruhhhh.
old merc was so broken, one time i was at shack gate on sacred heart, got hit with detention, and made it all the way to the other gate using 1 or 2 elbow pads
old knee jerk was ONE before broken windows, people used 36(9) which meant BT, tide, and one into knee jerk. one more fun one was tinnitus was an optional web thing so some people would hunt without tinnitus!
Also, fun fact: on COA 4 there was a comp that was like "bad boys" or smthn like that, which was a comp full of rescuers (Wildling, GK, FW and Merc). You can guess it, ofc, but the point was to only get one outs. Even though those characters had super slow decoding, they were still pretty good kiters, so it was very easy to do alright and get one person out. Edit: OK LMAO I RANDOMLY GOT JUMPSCARED BY THE DUEL LINKS OST THAT'S AWESOME! IT HAS PLENTY OF GOOD OSTS I'D LOVE TO SEE YOU USE MORE OF THEM BC SOME OF THEM ARE REALLY AWESOME. WHICH IS UR FAV ZEEZ?
@@ZeezVovGeeV Of course! I'll just list some because I don't wanna overwhelm you lol: Kaito Tenjo's theme, 5Ds winning theme 2, DSOD winning theme, Quattro's theme, Blue Angel's theme (more happy-go-lucky/funsies), Anna Kaboom's theme and Declan Akaba's theme (if it's some final game/final boss). If you have any theme/style you might be looking forward I can think of more! And I hope you enjoy the Duel Links's OSTs because it's the one thing Konami never misses lmaoo Edit: I was listening to my fav theme and saw someone say it sounded similar to Fire Emblem, I don't think it might fit the videos, but if you wanna check it out, it's Mizar's theme :)
this is kinda crazy to me because Ive always thought of cipher rush as just being something that happens because ciphers are fast, a no skill imput involved sort of thing… but this lowkey shows that there really is some strat and training and optimization involved in pulling off good cipher rush because somehow the best of the best with the most broken characters couldn’t manage it back in the day 🤔🤯
God I miss the old times.. I have been playing since IDV was released in global 2018 from SS 1. It was so goofy and fun to play. I loved to play specially as hunters back then. Michiko insta dashing as soon as the icon would show up someone was there, Jack's foggy area showing up when a survivor was in one place for too long made the game super laggy for me haha and ofc the good old doom shock. Really miss that sometimes.
About coa with my beloved b4u. They were playing from their homes and netease would never accept the ping failed them. Also myleg was and is an icon❤ paulblems seer was always the best to watch
i think you messed up writing COA VI (6) instead of the actual IV (4), anyways, good video! i always watch your channel cause i find your content pretty much entertaining
old doc couldn't heal chips, and it took a bit of time so people said "'don't heal it takes too long just decode" back then, also idk about coa3 but explo didn't always have his pages, he only had the book to be small
I started playing around this time and if I remeber somewhat correctly, back then I don't exactly remember if the ciphers were slow or if it was because people would bounce off of them. I remember back then while playing, one of the gamestyles would just be to avoid the hunter to drown them of presence or else to use abilities to harass them. Kinda like with priestess's portal. Waste their time so they don't get the presence they need.
honestly the wu chang dance break reminded me of the stageplay zeez should watch the identity v stageplay imo, though I'm not sure how I think it would be fun lol (with eng captions too)
ah old magician such a relic 2 wands could be terror shocked just from being hit while invisible and a -60% speed to rescuing him as someone there from season 1 the game balance was all over the place.
I had no idea that Doom Shock was a thing, even though I’ve been playing idv for months now…seeing this old footage while knowing how the game is now is just so jarring 😭 it’s like the equivalent of giving a Victorian child sour skittles
49:38 in the past leech de leeching took 35 seconds no matter how many survivors were leeched /down which is why she was super oppressive (along with trait slam as the 20 sec delay wasn’t here) and yes leech marks did exist but the icon didn’t so it’s hard to tell who had leech marks at the time
I didn't touch Idv at all after Season 2 and then I decided to play again last year using priestess on my first game. When I see the hunter go through the portal, I got jumpscared so hard I screamed. 😅
Same for me hahaha I was so happy when I played dancer and noticed I could actually pick her music box up again 😭
@@rumimir18 LITERALLY THIS LMFAOO
Omg, it gonna take a WHILE for u to see every new character and every new buff and nerfs
@@fany6746 Yeah. Whenever I play the old survivors I was like "Did it used to be like this? I think it used to be different. Wait, did I remembered it wrong?" I was confused the whole time 😅
"DOOM SHOCK" is the most horrifying thing a survivor can experience, witness, and go through
What is doom shock ???
When a survivor is on the rocket chair and hunter is 18 meters away, hunter gains a 10%/15%/20% (depending on mastery) chance to apply Doom Shock and produce double Fear when attacking.
@@SigmaSantiSo it was a thing on the persona web where if a survivor was on a rocket chair, the hunter had a X% chance to down the survivor near the chair(mostly the rescuer ofc) even if they were at full health. So it kinda was a terrorshock but based on luck, as a way of saving the game for the hunter
If I remember corectly, the hunter's eyes had the same effect as detention but yellow
Oh ok ty!
13:45 For those who don't know what Doom Shock is (i searched it up) :
Apparently back in the day it was a persona web talent that was luck based. When someone was 18 meters away from an active rocket chair, there was a 10/20/25% chance (depending on how many points you put in your persona web) the hunter would insta down you. The hunter eyes would glow yellow at this moment (we can see them glowing like detention if you look) . So yeah, completely broken lmao, i'm glad i never got to know it in game x)
In the past they also had no spawn selection so you just had to pray you found the decoder
but at the same time decoders were always the ones spawning near the hunter
@@dominosquashthis was just a theory
I’ve been a hunter main since 2018 and this gives me war flashbacks….
Fr. That window in birdcage, it haunts me
@ idk what made the devs think that was fair and balanced…. Birdcage plus priestess was honestly hunter hell
forgeting confind in arms used to be a death sentence
The pallet is way better for survivors @@Kaito-1412.
13:48 Yellow glowing eyes, showing that yes, he did have Doom Shock active

Notice how in coa4 NE specifically covered the ping corner… bc sadly our team B4U had an awful ping. So you noticed correctly that they moved slower
seeing double window in bird cage gave me war flashbacks..
26:17 Ive been giggling at this so much for no reason she just scurries away like a mouse 😭😭
The way both white guard and black guard dances so synchronised was kinda cool
It’s kinda crazy how much has changed.., not just survivor skill and hunter but even maps😭 like double window at hospital and the one pallet near factor of Leo memory.

before geisha rework you had to stare at her constantly or she would dash so fast towards you. adjusting to spam staring was new to me
I REMEMBER DOOM SHOCK OMG
The old ver geisha WAS pretty scary
the sculptor goes crazyyyyy
old knee jerk was ONE before broken windows, people used 36(9) which meant BT, tide, and one into knee jerk.
one more fun one was tinnitus was an optional web thing so some people would hunt without tinnitus!
Doctor actually use to heal like full damage, but her healing was slower
Also, fun fact: on COA 4 there was a comp that was like "bad boys" or smthn like that, which was a comp full of rescuers (Wildling, GK, FW and Merc). You can guess it, ofc, but the point was to only get one outs. Even though those characters had super slow decoding, they were still pretty good kiters, so it was very easy to do alright and get one person out.
Edit: OK LMAO I RANDOMLY GOT JUMPSCARED BY THE DUEL LINKS OST THAT'S AWESOME! IT HAS PLENTY OF GOOD OSTS I'D LOVE TO SEE YOU USE MORE OF THEM BC SOME OF THEM ARE REALLY AWESOME. WHICH IS UR FAV ZEEZ?
I've only recently started listening to the Duel Links music so I don't know if I have a favorite. If you have any recommendations though let me know!
@@ZeezVovGeeV Of course! I'll just list some because I don't wanna overwhelm you lol: Kaito Tenjo's theme, 5Ds winning theme 2, DSOD winning theme, Quattro's theme, Blue Angel's theme (more happy-go-lucky/funsies), Anna Kaboom's theme and Declan Akaba's theme (if it's some final game/final boss). If you have any theme/style you might be looking forward I can think of more! And I hope you enjoy the Duel Links's OSTs because it's the one thing Konami never misses lmaoo
Edit: I was listening to my fav theme and saw someone say it sounded similar to Fire Emblem, I don't think it might fit the videos, but if you wanna check it out, it's Mizar's theme :)
this is kinda crazy to me because Ive always thought of cipher rush as just being something that happens because ciphers are fast, a no skill imput involved sort of thing… but this lowkey shows that there really is some strat and training and optimization involved in pulling off good cipher rush because somehow the best of the best with the most broken characters couldn’t manage it back in the day 🤔🤯
The way i was playing during sculptor meta and i do NOT remember two god pallets on leos😭
God I miss the old times.. I have been playing since IDV was released in global 2018 from SS 1. It was so goofy and fun to play. I loved to play specially as hunters back then. Michiko insta dashing as soon as the icon would show up someone was there, Jack's foggy area showing up when a survivor was in one place for too long made the game super laggy for me haha and ofc the good old doom shock. Really miss that sometimes.
54:00 COA 4?! Great race was COA 4?? that means ive been playing this game for over 3-4ish years what even
this whole video feels like a fever dream
I heard tinnitus is part of the persona build instead of a passive trait a long time ago but i dont remember when it changed tho
Around s23
I actually really liked the first coa2 match, it looked like it'd be fun to play on both sides
About coa with my beloved b4u. They were playing from their homes and netease would never accept the ping failed them. Also myleg was and is an icon❤ paulblems seer was always the best to watch
as someone who joined early COA VI.. that was peak.
I'd like to see your reaction to Bonbon games back when he was at his peak, I'm sure you would hate it LOL.
seeing xrock vs b4u here gave me soo many memories 😭😭
i think you messed up writing COA VI (6) instead of the actual IV (4), anyways, good video! i always watch your channel cause i find your content pretty much entertaining
old doc couldn't heal chips, and it took a bit of time so people said "'don't heal it takes too long just decode" back then, also idk about coa3 but explo didn't always have his pages, he only had the book to be small
I started playing around this time and if I remeber somewhat correctly, back then I don't exactly remember if the ciphers were slow or if it was because people would bounce off of them. I remember back then while playing, one of the gamestyles would just be to avoid the hunter to drown them of presence or else to use abilities to harass them. Kinda like with priestess's portal. Waste their time so they don't get the presence they need.
Remind of the times where hospital was so broken.
Doom shock.... I haven't heard that name in a long time...
54:50 COA 4 MENTION!!! (my favorite coa ever simply because mike is in it) (honorable mike gaming mention)!!!!!!!
holy sewer apples its insane to see how much the meta has changed these past few years (｡o_o｡)""
Only in coa 2 will you see wuchang pop and lock 😭😭
honestly the wu chang dance break reminded me of the stageplay
zeez should watch the identity v stageplay imo, though I'm not sure how I think it would be fun lol (with eng captions too)
5:54 and technically they were FASTER back then (if I’m not wrong) due to nerfs in decoding near the time flywheel was made
ah old magician such a relic 2 wands could be terror shocked just from being hit while invisible and a -60% speed to rescuing him as someone there from season 1 the game balance was all over the place.
10:06 I’d leave if someone witnessed that flop 😭
25:30 actually doctor didn’t heal in chips, very slow healing but full health
It's really surprising to see how much the meta changed
I had no idea that Doom Shock was a thing, even though I’ve been playing idv for months now…seeing this old footage while knowing how the game is now is just so jarring 😭 it’s like the equivalent of giving a Victorian child sour skittles
49:38 in the past leech de leeching took 35 seconds no matter how many survivors were leeched /down which is why she was super oppressive (along with trait slam as the 20 sec delay wasn’t here) and yes leech marks did exist but the icon didn’t so it’s hard to tell who had leech marks at the time
Back in my days 😔, i love doom shock sm as a hunter main. Violleta is so slow now too ;;
4:13 Not only that you could even charge owl while the tide turner effect was active 😂
it was really hard to kite geisha back then
Man i miss these days in idv, this was peak tbh
