    This video talks about armor in fighting games and how the property is used.
    Guilty Gear Strive is a fighting video game developed and published by Arc System Works. It is the seventh mainline installment of the Guilty Gear series and the 25th overall. The game was released worldwide on June 11, 2021. It uses Unreal Engine 4. Intended as a "complete reconstruction of the franchise", Guilty Gear Strive retains the core essence of the series but revamps many features and mechanics, except for the removal of the series’ signature mechanic, the Instant Kill. It introduces the "Wall Break" feature, which allows for stage transitions when a combo is initiated in the corner of the arena. Guilty Gear Strive was released for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Microsoft Windows on June 11, 2021. It was also distributed via Sega to Japanese arcades on July 29, 2021. "Limited Edition" and "Ultimate Edition" editions were made available for pre-order; console players who get the latter received early access to the full game on June 8, 2021.
    Street Fighter V is a fighting game developed by Capcom and Dimps and published by Capcom for the PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Windows in 2016. Similar to the previous games in the Street Fighter series, Street Fighter V features a side-scrolling fighting gameplay system. The game also introduces the "V-Gauge", which builds as the player receives attacks and adds three new skills. The game features 16 characters at launch, with four of them being new to the series. A story mode and 30 additional characters were added through updates and downloadable content.
    Street Fighter IV (ストリートファイター IV, Sutorīto Faitā Fō) is a 2008 fighting game published by Capcom, who also co-developed the game with Dimps. It was the first original main entry in the series since Street Fighter III in 1997, a hiatus of eleven years. The coin-operated arcade game version was released in Japan on July 18, 2008, with North American arcades importing the machines by August. The console versions for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 were released in Japan on February 12, 2009, and were sold in North American stores as early as February 16, with a February 18 intended release date. Street Fighter IV received universal critical acclaim; receiving universally high scores from many gaming websites and magazines and it has often been cited as one of the greatest games of all time. It was followed by Super Street Fighter IV and Arcade Edition in 2010, 3D Edition in 2011, and Ultra Street Fighter IV in 2014. All versions of Street Fighter IV have sold over 9 million units across all platforms.
    Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes is a crossover fighting game developed and published by Capcom. It is the fourth installment in the Marvel vs. Capcom series, which features characters from both Capcom's video game franchises and comic book series published by Marvel Comics. Originally released in Japanese arcades in 2000, the game received ports to the Dreamcast, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox, Xbox 360, and iOS devices over the span of twelve years. In Marvel vs. Capcom 2, players select a team of characters from the Marvel and Capcom universes to engage in combat and attempt to knock out their opponents. While the game uses similar tag team-based game mechanics to the series' previous iteration, Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes, it features several significant changes, such as three-on-three gameplay, a new character assist system, and a more simplified control scheme. The character artwork uses traditional 2D-animated sprites, while the backgrounds and visual effects are rendered in 3D. This makes Marvel vs. Capcom 2 the first game in the franchise to feature 2.5D graphics. The game received positive reviews from critics, who praised its gameplay, visuals, and character roster, while criticizing its soundtrack and initial lack of online multiplayer support outside Japan. Since its release, it has been considered one of the best fighting games of all time as well as one of the greatest games of all time in general. Following its release, Capcom lost the use of the Marvel Comics license, putting the series on a decade-long hiatus. In April 2010, Capcom announced the development of a sequel, Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, which was later released in February 2011.

    i just wanted to add that there are a lot more checks to armor. some armor moves can ONLY armor through mids and highs and will lose out to lows while moves like Hammerfall you can actually throw potemkin out of it.

    @chungusumungus4004 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Armored attacks are generally used as replacements for evasive tools that characters may lack, and in most cases, have similar weaknesses, such as being unsafe on block (Potemkin's Hammer Fall), easily whiff punishable (SFV Zangief's St.HP), only work vs certain types of attacks (Iron Tager's 6A only works against B, P, and H property moves), and are almost universally throwable (NRS games are the only exception in recent memory).
    In addition, the evasive equivalents of these moves are typically given additional upsides due to their perceived increase in risk. An example of this in GGST is Ky's Stun Dipper vs Potemkin's Hammer Fall. Stun Dipper is faster, hits low, and leads to greater advantage on normal hit in exchange for being low profile rather than armored. Both are used as high risk counterpokes or "neutral skip" tools with RC, but Stun Dipper is significantly better in both regards.

    There's a character from Hisoutensoku called Tenshi, she is a pretty fast moving character that deal heavy damage, and has a 4 cost spell card that gave her 16 seconds of super armor, taking 25% less damage while remove the ability to block, it is probably some of the most broken super armor in the game beside Typhoon weather effect (weather game mechanics, give both player super armor, remove the ability to block, but she has a pretty cheap card that can disable this game mechanics on the opponent)

    There's also another type of Armor called Heavy Armor. Which gives the user Armor, but it can be broken if the move you're Armoring was a strong one. (A common thing in Smash, which also has Heavy Armor that depends on Knockback, not only Damage).

This absolute Behemoth of a man has a move with fricking 16 hits of Super Armor. The attack lasts for not even half a second.

    Pokken Tournament, with its rock-paper-scissors inspired gameplay, incorporated hyper armor into the core moveset of every single Pokemon in the game, color coded for the player's convenience with the color blue and called Counter Armor.
    Counter Armor negates all damage and knock back from any standard attack, and if the Counter Attack hits the attacker while they're in recovery the move gains some sort of bonus in the form of a Critical Hit, from increased damage to different forms of knockback, status effects, etc. Every Pokemon gets a basic chargeable, dash-cancelable Counter Attack by pressing X+A, but each one also has unique Counter moves in addition to that.
    In exchange for this wildly powerful option, however, Counter Attacks are vulnerable to grabs (Green, also get a critical hit for winning RPS) and special attacks called Counter Pierces, which are normal attacks that benefit from breaking Counter Armor.
    Good examples of Counters include Lucario's Extreme Speed, which functions fairly close to a traditional Shoryuken-esque DP, Machamp's Submission, which only gets Armor when used during Bulk Up but is actually also a grab, and Sceptile's Detect, which drops a giant hitbox with a defense debuff exclusively if you successfully Counter an attack. The variety is wild, and knowing what tools you have to beat them out is a huge part of the game.
    As a related bonus fact, some Pokemon also get a form of Super Armor on their normal attacks, which beats out throws and armors through normals, but the user still takes damage (and in Blaziken's case deal self-damage)

    My team in UMvC3 (one of them anyway) is designed to bypass super armor and later abuse super armor (and then I could make a joke team with Hsien Ko for the hyper armo assist and have the trifecta, lol).
    Spider-Man, dorm, sent.
    Spider-Man is able to do things like “air heavy web ball, downward web zip, air H” which sends 3 attacks towards the same direction and also negates push block and leaves the option to air dash and do it all again if they have god push block timing.
    Characters like hulk and sentinels super armor aren’t going to really matter in this situation because Spider-Man is throwing out so many attacks.
    Later in the match if you gain three or more meter you can combo into maximum spider, dhc into stalking flare, throw out a second stalking flare, and hard tag back to Spider-Man. And then you can apply extreme pressure on your opponent and their super armor doesn’t matter in the slightest.
    Then if Spider-Man and dorm die you’ve got sent. And cr. M is hilariously useful.

    I think one thing about armored moves is they are often wildly unsafe if blocked.
    There aren't too many armored moves that are safe unless you have to spend meter.
    My favorite armored move is Big Bands's brass knuckles. Imagine if hammerfall was a big fucking disjointed fullscreen punch that is armored and causes a hard knockdown on hit. This works together with Take the 'A' Train which is an armored anti air command grab which also has nearly fullscreen range, and his Giant Step which is an overhead within range, and a fullscreen unblockable that must be jumped. The downside is these moves are all very unsafe.

    There are many mechanics in all the different fighting games out there, so it can be hard to have good terms for all of these mechanics. “Armor” can mean multiple things. So I feel it’s important to be aware of that, and ideally use the full terms instead shorthand of just “Armor” (at least when talking to people who aren’t already in the know, like beginners or people who are unfamiliar with the terms/mechanics).
    Here’s a short breakdown of my understanding of the terms:
    *Armor:*
    Reduces damage taken from attacks.
    *Invulnerable:*
    Reduces damage taken to 0. Can also be called *Full Armor.* You can still suffer hit stun, so you’re not *unflinching.*
    *Unflinching:*
    Suffer no hit stun from suffered attacks. But still suffer hit lag/freeze frames. This means your attack won’t be stopped, but might get delayed.
    *Heavy Armor:*
    Remain *unflinching* for X amount of damage (or knockback) from suffered attacks.
    *Super Armor:*
    Remain *unflinching* for X amount of hits.
    *Hyper Armor:*
    Remain *unflinching* for a certain period time (or frames) of a move, sometimes the entire duration of a move.
    *Intangible:*
    When part or all of a fighter’s *hurt box* gets turned off, making them harder or impossible to land hits on.
    *Hurt Box:*
    The part of a fighter that detects if attacks hit them.
    *Invincibility:*
    Suffered attacks don’t affect you at all. Opponent’s will still suffer hit lag and freeze frames when their attacks hit you.
    *Sabaki/Trample:*
    Is like *invincibility*, but only on certain parts of a fighter’s hit or hurt boxes and/or during certain moves/attacks.

    Up B: beyblade spin recovery | multi hit rising attack but on land has Frame 5 super armor and can tank through almost any attack
    One Punch: THE strongest super armor in game I think, can tank any attack and has frame 4 super armor and is an instant punch
    Sometimes people like Ganon mains would use missinput a warlock punch and just to be a d!ck I'd run up to them with my charged Punch and let him hit me just as my punch goes out so instead of me dying he's the one getting launched

    Tekken 7/8's armored moves are definitely interesting. They add to the mind games a ton, but are balanced by frames to activate, range, and generally being unsafe on block. I think the games have been better for them, but I also can't imagine them without... so maybe I'm biased.

    Mechanically what I don't like about it is how your opponent might not always have some visual indication, and that can be especially frustrating for new players. My critique is armor and most of the moves where you spend a bar to be able to avoid fireballs, are simply band aids on a problem that goes back to the original Street Fighter: the purpose of the mechanic is to "have meaningful combat across the entire screen." I think the question we need to ask is, DOES the same fireball mechanic we've had all these years accomplish this goal? I would argue no.
    First, we have to talk about "meaningful combat" and what that means. Certain types of throws (especially command grabs) might be considered cheap by some, but the general consensus is that neutral and closer meets the criteria (it is a nebulous term but we can agree on that). I think this comes down to the rock, paper, scissors, nature of block, throw, and attack. Both you and your opponent have the same ability to counter and outplay each other because of it. Secondly, the three different speeds of the attacks is a risk vs. reward mechanic.. although other factors undermine this and that is acceptable. What matters is there are six distinct actions we can take with different properties, and which one is the right tool depends on the circumstance. I think if we boil it down, those are the secret herbs and spices. So how do fireballs stack up?
    if it is two fireball characters, they can just chuck fireballs which cancel each other out. They can just chuck them out at each other over and over; it's fun but I wouldn't say that is "meaningful combat." You can also block it, you can neutral jump, and you can jump forward which is a big risk reward situation. Typically the person throwing out the fireball is looking for the jump in to punish, and the person jumping in has no response to that except to bait things out and hope they make a mistake. For a character with no fireball... just take away the ability to throw a fireball... not many options, and keep in mind originally fireballs felt so good because block pushed people pretty far back, so even a block was impactful. Without more ways to respond, this also doesn't meet the rock, paper, scissors criteria.
    This is where we start to see non fireball characters start to get things like "spend resource to just ignore fireball and hit them anyway" and armor that is "just be able to ignore the fireball." With both of these, your opponent does not have something they can do to respond to it, and you don't have anything that would beat that if you think they are going for it. You see where I'm headed with this? Even in Super Turbo Ryu got a "super" fireball that would go through other fireballs because it was a way to counter someone "blocking" your fireball.
    So why not go back to the SFII archetype drawing board and look at the base mechanics again. The only notable thing was Sagat's high and low fireballs, which certainly made things more difficult for non fireball characters. What we need are rock, paper, scissor mechanics for fireball vs. fireball AND fireball vs. non fireball built into the game.
    Not "ignore the mechanic" fixes, but a fundamental change to how things are built from the ground up. We had "trip guard" mechanics added because there was no counterplay to punishing a jump in with a sweep... maybe that can be reverted but those different methods to deal with jump ins can be countered by the player jumping in, which you would have a rock, paper, scissors counter to, etc. Your different buttons for fireballs have different properties and a rock, paper, scissors relationship to those of your opponents, changing who has to respond. If the same type meets, then you have a "block" where the fireballs cancel each other out.
    Non fireball characters are given baseline tools to have "meaningful combat" at ranged as well. For instance, maybe they can input a command that allows them to knock the fireball back at the opponent (turning the tables and forcing THEM to respond), with the downside that doing it too close or too predictable means they get a free jump in on you. This could also double as a tool that allows them to push back an opponent going for a command throw... if they guess right they get some distance and frame advantage. If they guess wrong they leave themselves open to a jump in and eat the command grab anyway, PLUS the extra damage from the set up. This would also make for a more interesting matchup between the grappler and non grappler characters who don't have fireballs.
    But you get the point... a new foundation to then add non traditional characters and mechanics on top of. Making sure there are no "bad buttons" and that each normal has unique properties. With more options baseline it also means whatever "gimmicks" you come up with for non traditional characters will be more likely to have a way to be countered.

    Well that's incorrect. Super Armor is armor that pushes through attacks, but will slow down from hitstop and take damage along the way. Hyper Armor is one that will plow right through everything without any slowdown to it, acting as if nothing's going on at all. Focus attacks in SF are hyper armor, compared to the examples of super armor there.

    I've never considered armor as something unfair if it can be grabbed, or has low startup, or is easily whiff punish, or is super minus on block, since it can work as well as a reversal option just like Dragon punches since they share some properties like being punishable and stuff, also if you're 1 HP armor is not a resource you can count on since you can die. UNLESS you are Grappler from DNF which CANNOT DIE IF HE'S ARMORED (even if he's 1% HP, he cannot die). Armor that protects you from dying is completely insane and unfair imo.
