    4:10 Bushy probably has thousands of hours into this game. Him saying he has never seen an attack is baffling.
    I also haven't seen that particular attack ever. What the heck is that, Miyazaki?

    • @kenjyn76
      @kenjyn76 26 วันที่ผ่านมา +55

      It's the move that Margit does if you just stand in front of him while he does that entire input. Normally you'd be dead before he actually does that move

    • @whoreblender
      @whoreblender 26 วันที่ผ่านมา +53

      he only uses it as a follow-up after he breaks your guard.

      ​@@whoreblenderFunnily enough I saw that move on my first ever attempt of fighting Margit. Elden Ring was my first souls game and I had just found out that I can block while two handing a weapon so I opted to do that for moves I couldn't dodge at the time. Margit has a ton of moves that annihilate any block with weak guard boost, his hammer moves especially so I saw that move very often because I got scared and got my guard broken constantly.
      Fast forward to now and every time an experienced player sees that move they all have the same reaction of "I've never seen this move" for something I thought was part of his regular moveset. Shows how little players use blocking instead of rolling.

      I’ve seen other people get that move, but I haven’t gotten it myself.
      It seems to be a combo finisher that he only pulls out if he guard-breaks you.

      I like Bushy's new setup. Strangely though, I cannot unsee the background and lighting as some sort of steel mill/foundry. Idk why but that's what it looks like to me, I guess the yellow light reflecting off of everything looks like the glow of fire. Thus, I'm imagining a burning hot factory with a bunch of sweaty, soot-covered workers casting molten metal and then there's just Bushy sitting in a corner playing video games.

    @saevitor 25 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    This is actually the same type of gameplay I did during my first run of Elden Ring. Though that was back when guard counters used to cost FP (equal the square off L2), so I ran into the issue of not having enough FP to handle long fights as a result. The removal of FP cost on guard counters truly was a great change looking back.

    • @paladindaril

    dunno if bushy ever realizes it but moving cancels your guard counter window. That's why he was getting so befuddled by attacks with less shield stagger. It's actually very long if you stand still
