If we all have to be honest with ourselves, the greatsword knights are always the most badass type of knight in this series, they carry this unspoken but unshakeable confidence.
GS cathedral knights make up in aggression what they lack in stats when fighting Millwoods, the Greatmace Cathedral Knights are just too dang passive and dont know how to time their buffs
The shield knights are very, very passive. They have big shields and lots of stamina and only attack when you tire your self out on their shields on purpose, to teach you to try to work around their shield
@@franacha that assumes all his dex leveling knights converted to stength builds at some point, considering those pthumerian knights use GSs and mace/flails
That's because they are utterly stupid in how they use their shields. They just block until they run out of stamina and get hit for tons of sweet bonus damage. They'd be a lot stronger if they didn't have those shields and just spammed away with their maces.
As expected, the Greatsword variants carried the Cathedral Knights most of the way like in the Cathedral vs Lothric vid, but unfortunately lacked the durability or stagger potential to have a clean win against the Millwood Chieftain. Loved the little bonus at the end too, kinda poetic justice to see the Millwood Greatbow Archer fall to his death after spearing and blasting so many players off the tree section leading to Gravetender and Greatwolf.
The Greatsword Cathedral Knight played his first fight so incredibly well, holy shit. That ending was like watching someone make a 1hp comeback in streetfighter
@@gensaikuroki1793 yeah it breaks their poise (they already have quite low poise for an enemy so big) but they don't get knocked down like other enemies do
@@hecc7906 No I agree with you. I was just commenting that their kicks could break Millwood poise. I guess Harald Legion Knights are still the strongest knights in the game.
As the cathedral knight moved through the snowy forest to continue his lone wolf crusade, he encountered a native of the place, he saw no other way but to destroy his foe.
The Greatsword Knight winning that second bout with just a sliver of health remaining was freaking amazing. But Millwood Knights are the best, this is conclusive proof now.
The animations in this game are truly exceptional. I was impressed with COD MW 2019 animations, never knew a game from 2016 would be so good at it. Just look at his hand and body movement 2:00
Cathedral Knights (specifically the greatsword ones) are just really fucking aggressive. Doesn't help that the Millwood Knights have much longer windups.
@@cordyceps182 Also, they've got poise for days. I've never had a good way of dealing with them other than: 1. Cheese. 2. Tryhard. 3. Lots of armor and a really big stick. The only humanoid non-boss I hate fighting even more is the black knight.
I would love to see UGS Cathedral Knight paired againts some bosses. His poise and ceaseless onslaught make for an amazing spectacle. Make the crusader boi fight some bosses!
MW: Ok! Hit you once and now... GSK: **Sword attack** NO! MW: OK! I'll gonna charge my strong.. GSK: **Kick** NO! MW: OK! THEN I... GSK: **Headbutt** NO!!
I never understood why they didn't let Pontiff use his buff animation. It's the most intimidating (and elegant) non-combat move I've seen in the game. It looks like something straight out of Star Wars. I understand that at first glance it might seem that just having him effortlessly light them up as he slowly walks towards you would make him more menacing, but that animation adds a "badass" factor into the mix. It looks kinda like a ritual, and then that brief pause after he lights them up, it almost looks like he's saying "Like it? You won't." Man, I love Sulyvahn.

Poor mace knights are about to be destroyed. They always get carried by the UGS versions.
At least they drop one of the best great hammers in the game.

That’s cause they use shields

You mean they'd be better if they shield bashed more and had higher stability.
Also they uses axes and great hammers, no maces.

Never underestimate the bloody poise of a UGS Cathedral Knight. It has been my folly several times.
Hot goosebumps when you used the cut animation for pontiff. Awesome stuff, man.
So when are we getting four knights of gwyn vs gwyn lord of cinder and black nights?
That first segment wasn't a fight, it was a humiliation.
That last battle was quicker than I expected.
The GS Cathedral knight is so fun to watch. Just comes out of the gate swinging like an anime protagonist.
4:40 Forbidden hit "Nut grabber"
Also one of the annoying factors is that Pontiff Sulyvahn and others "Rich and Mighty" Bosses can't afford shoes
i never knew i wanted a dark souls NPC fight to the death tournament, but you've convinced me
Pontiff Sulyvahn: “Hey, kids! Wanna see a twenty-seven hit combo?”

These boys have never even HEARD of stamina. The notion of running out of steam is an alien concept.
The intros with orchestra music i love these.
I remember the other video and thinking those Cathedral Knights never get stunned, I was wrong. The Millwood Knights just destroy health bars

Really cool that you used Pontiff's hidden animation.
