I really want this type of “Fighting Games Video Essay” type of content on this platform to get bigger, with creators like Gekko and Leon Massey spearheading this movement. I absolutely love these types of Fighting Games shower thoughts videos. I wish you every success and thank you for the great content and uploading so often!
I've been getting into making them recently as I've been super inspired by people like Leon, Gekko, Proxicon, Core-A etc, and it's actually crazy how few creators there actually are making videos like this. Also seconding Jaylen recommending Sajam, absolutely incredible analysis and advice channel.
This intro speaks to me. Many times in many different fighting games have i gotten my friend low and expected him to accept that he's lost the round and take the L. But he just shouts things like "You thought i was going out like a BITCH!?!?!" Then proceeds to guess right multiple times in a row and rob me.
Yes, listen to him. Don't take the throw, jump. every. single. time. But remember, do not come back to me saying that you got 10 heavenly Potemkin busters in 3 matches.
So while meaty is often seen as an attack hitting on wakeup, what it actually means is when you hit an attack later in the active frames, so you recover earlier while they still take the same amount of hitstun and you get extra plus frames making your followup combo or pressure much more dangerous. The later in the active frames hit, the more meaty the attack. The most likely time for this to happen is when their hitbox isn't hittable during the first part of the move, which is most common during wakeup (hence why its often mixed up with hitting on wakeup) but can also happen when they dash or fall into the hitbox or if your hitbox moves along the ground. Hence why meaty garuda impact can go into another garuda impact just to make you cry. Millia's HS disk isn't generally considered meaty for this reason since its a projectile and you're trying to hit them with the first active frame since you want to lock them down as long as possible to set up your 4-way mixup rather than trying to hit them with later frames to get more plus frames since the move is already going to jail them for a while.
@@HiterLit That just means whoever wrote the glossary is also wrong. edit: Actually looked it up in the Glossary, and it has both definitions listed there as well. So they're not wrong.
I know youre being sarcastic, but blocking setplay mixups is some of the most heart-pounding action in the genre imo. Mashing out or Reversaling at the right time because you're in their head makes you feel unstoppable, expecially when you get to run your own mix because of it it makes me feel like an anime protaganist monologing about the power of friendship and I LOVE it
How you explain advantage states with turns is exactly how I explain it to new players too. Simplifies a lot of things, even the concept of reversals and parry moves effectively stealing turns.
At the beginning of this video I got an ad where two men with blindfolds on were throwing darts at a dartboard, and I really feel like that does a good job of summing up offense in fighting games
Imo one of your best videos yet: pacing was snappy, to the point and the writing was the right mix of witty and lowbrow that I failed to block right away. What can I say, gorilla funny. A very fitting end to this 3-piece series.
seeing that clip of vat's instant b drill overhead at 7:28 gave me war flashbacks to my unist days and I've been readmitted to a ward at my psychiatric center, thanks mate
As a pure gorilla my main strategy is doing a super and then canceling it before it does real damage, then taunt. It is a pure, 100% mental damage combo. It converts people to the gorilla cause, which is my realm.
The best part of being full offensive, is when your opponent thinks you are just pressing buttons, but you actually know how to get in and literally fucking do that tod you practice everyday

@@Ramsey276one Ahh, Mistral's theme?, it seriously sounds like something out of RWBY. Though the stranger parts should've been a hint, since the French word for "the stranger" is used for the name of her weapon
Your definition of meaty is inaccurate. It's not just a move hitting an opponent on the first frame that they're vulnerable, it's a move that hits on its later active frames. Say a move has 4 active frames that can hit after the start up frames. Normally, the move hits on the first active frame against a neutral opponent. An opponent that is invulnerable, such as while getting up, can avoid the initial active frames and get hit by the later frames. Why this matters is that the hit stun is the same regardless of which active frame of the move hits. If the move has 4 active frames with 3 frames of recovery and causes 9 hit stun, then when it hits on the first frame, you would recover 6 frames later and the opponent would recover 9 frames later, making you +3. If you don't have a move that activates in 3 frames, you can't get a combo. However, if you hit on the 4th active frame of that same move, you now recover 3 frames later, but your opponent still recovers 9 frames later, making you +6, and if your character has a move that activates in 5 frames, you can now get a link combo.

Play defense if you wanna win, but offense is how you feel like a winner
a good offense is a good defense🙏🏿

10/10 for the Mistral theme alone.👍🏿
As a millia player I will start useing the term “meaty with no meat”.
an entire set composed of minute-long oki & blockstrings = veggietales
hit 'em with the vegetarian pizza, which obviously makes a command grab a meat lover's.
Can I get a meaty, hold the meat.
"You're only minus if you're a bitch." is something I'm gonna quote in life from now on. Thanks Gec-I mean Lao Tzu!

MGRR music within the first 30 seconds, I like it.

This start is protagonism 100
I sought out this video today because the phrase "You're a gorilla" has lived in my head rent free since I first watched this.
"You one mixup away from death"
Me: "Yang semblance activated"
5:38 LOVED THAT

What’s the song at 0:28? It’s the only one without a name and it’s FANTASTIC. I need more of this.

As someone wit minimal fighting game experiences and Bardock as my favorite in DBFZ, this makes the unga bunga happy
Active frames asked to convey that they are undeservedly ignored when describing moves in fighting games
The metal gear rising stranger track already got me hooked in
The first 50 seconds of this video is so epic... i revisited to rewind it over and over again lol. Made me wanna play DBFZ!!!
That start music was perfect!
REVENGEANCE… *ENGAGED*
Blessed be our mix, now guess the BT
BEECAUSE I AM A STRANGER THAT HAS FOUND AN EVEN STRANGER WAAAAR!!!!
Some real nanomachine vibes going on with the MGRR soundtrack

GekkoSquirrel: so your opponent has all that health a full team and *their game mechanic still in tack* (zooms in on a used spark)
"What side did that hit?" Yes, the answer is yes
Its funny how you can see a mixup incoming but 9 times out of 10 we don't know what to do
That intro is exactly what I feel when I have Yang left in BBTag
