I am playing since the release of Lethal League, I have seen everything that LL was going trough. In the end, everything turned out worse than it could be.
Really enjoying the fact Sonata was given 3 jumps since everyone gets double jumps now. It still makes her really good for getting high balls and just dominating the air, as well as giving us the best show of Sonata mains.
Sir Pineapple The fact that you gain meter for doing it, it gains slightly more speed after the throw until it hits the wall, and it can be used to counter ball parries is no lie. Plus high level players can easily use it for mix ups.
The gameplay adjustments make this look like one of the best games ever made from a mechanical point of view. Like the quake 3 of 2D sports action games
Just to note that as well as the ball does more damage when at increased speed, when the health bar starts blinking, that indicates that you'll die regardless of how much health you have. Great game design if you ask me :)
I’ve been on the fence for this game for a while. Absolutely love jet grind radio and jet set radio future, hover and those stylistic type of games. I think I might just take the plunge and get this for the switch looks really fun and competitive.!
Man I was skeptical about everything; 3D models, throwing, HP bars... everything. I'm so sold now. I suppose I never should've doubted this team, but it's so rare to see a sequel for such a fresh competitive game like LL to keep the sharpness and spirit of the original. Good shit. Consider my $20 yours already.
Equally matched opponents. Fuckin amazing tricks, I bet that the feel of the ball, hitting and bunting is better. Something about that double jump makes things that much more easier.
Can you show off some of the new modes and features? Would be a good way to hype why this is worth playing over just playing the original. Also would be nice to see whats new in the game as well.
The dimension of the rectangle (aspect ration and total size) makes a big difference. Some characters ball angles will loop on individual stages or form faster/slower changing patterns on others. Some characters do better in a smaller/shorter stage some better in a larger/taller. If you want different game play you'll have to swap to strikers, lethal volley, turn on powerups or change the ball type.
An HP bar. Instead of being knocked out immediately when you touch a ball that isn't tagged with your color like in the previous game, the ball will take some of your health away instead. The amount of damage you take is based on the current speed of the ball. When the HP bar is flashing, it means you will be knocked out the next time you get hit. The ball still can be a one-hit KO regardless of how much health you have after surpassing a certain speed. I think I've seen around the 200 mark it does that from other videos, but I'm not entirely sure what is the precise number.
I'm getting megabyte punch vibes from this because of how it's the same company and there fighting style. Still kinda sad no one did a full series on megabyte
BixHD When the ball is in front of your character you can grab the ball and throw it. This only works when the ball is in front of you and in grab range. This is easier at lower speeds or when the ball is going straight up or down, and trickier at more higher speeds or when the ball is going at different angles When the ball is grabbed you can throw it either forward or downward and is meant to trick up the opponent. However, grabbing does not speed up the ball and is meant to have the ball move slightly faster than usual until it hits the wall. It does make for a good means of gaining early energy. Throwing can also be used to parry the blue burst affect around the ball which sends the opponent back when they try to hit it. However, when you grab when this is happening you hijack their ball and throw it back at them which can usually result in a KO at higher speeds. This means that Parries beat Swings, Swings beat Throws, Throws beat Parries.
Game is awesome but I'm really dissapointed because my friend can barely run it with his pc. I expected this, but not to the level of his pc making loud audible noise. Guess I'll have to play solo.
On the one side, I am extremely hyped for Blaze, on the other side, I am sad that one of the first gameplay I see is the playstyle that truly killed Lethal League.
@@ITSGOOD2BKING You know, you should probably keep it that way. That way LL is supposed to be played, and have the benefit of enjoying it like it was the release date of Dice, it's peek-time.
That play at 1:27 by the Latch made me lose my mind, holy moly
NO WEAK SHIT
EZ Prey
That isn't anything good. Things like that were the reason Lethal League died.

That throwing mechanic will be *chaos*

Lethal On: Oratorio Doombox
who needs battle royales when you have this
Exactly
Those latch juggles at 1:27 are INTENSE
Just to note that as well as the ball does more damage when at increased speed, when the health bar starts blinking, that indicates that you'll die regardless of how much health you have. Great game design if you ask me :)
THIS GAME HAS SUCH A NICE SOUNDTRACK GAAAWD
Such minor changes can make a big difference in combat.
god I hope this game will be on evo or at least any other major competitive tournaments
I just realized, the faster the ball goes the more life you lose if you get hit by it. ok this is epic
I always liked to bait impatient enemies to run into the ball when it's my turn to make an ace, but the life bars are probably a good idea, yes.
@@Samurook i mean you can disable hp anyways so you can play a classic game.
@@Slimecade In the original flash game prototype, there wasn't even a ball tagging feature. If the ball hit you at all, stock lost.
ok but... what does that have to do with the final product and blaze?
@@Slimecade well they improved the gameplay. It's not necessarily a one hit K.O. now (if you enable the HP system thing)
From 1 year to few days
*Ayyyy!!*
These guys are playing insane, I'd never find anyone online who's plays like this
I just can't get over how nice the game looks. The presentation and overall style is just too good!
Yeah this was hype. Can't really say much else
I was rooting for latch the whole match, but when he actually won it was amazing
The hype train is too close to handle
I’ve been on the fence for this game for a while. Absolutely love jet grind radio and jet set radio future, hover and those stylistic type of games. I think I might just take the plunge and get this for the switch looks really fun and competitive.!
That crazy music set up at 1:27 was great
That LATCH! nice match!

im still amazed and jealous that i cant do the Bunt Juggles
Same but imma try and atleast learn how to do it
I don't know what's happening but it looks interesting
Dude I hope this game gets the attention it deserves. I'm definitely getting it when it releases. Also I hope a good competitive can form too.
HARU MY BOOOY YOU'RE GOIN CRAZY!!
Oh my god is that a Niko
indeed it is! have had this particular boat-bound niko profile picture since like, 2013.
This looks like a fun as hell game mechanically.
man now my man latch can do some pretty awesome juggles that was sick! can't wait to play it! ♥
Definitely buying on release
As an aspiring Latch main, this video pleases me.
Holy crap this is nuts!!!! Can't wait!
Oh my goodness the tech skill spam. It will be righteous. I can't wait to get ahold of LLB!

*_Can't wait to get clapped on switch_*
Only 6 days!
@@RoboThunder its here!!! it only took 8 months but its here!!
just learned about this game this morning i wish i knew sooner
JAWBREAKERS SEASON 2 LETS GOOOO
Are you Guys gonna do more on Megabyte Punch? I love that game too
Toxic joins to the battle
Man this looks good.
This video seriously doubled my hype. omfg...
High level play in this game is fucking bananas.
Peak performance Lethal League
Can anyone tell me when the ports coming to ps4 its been sprng for a long ass time and weve heard absolutly nothing
Can you show off some of the new modes and features? Would be a good way to hype why this is worth playing over just playing the original. Also would be nice to see whats new in the game as well.
that one dislike was sonata
When its coming to ps4???????????????
So this is Extreme Pong?
latch and sonata same angles as before (good thing) seems like latch is a totally different chracter but sonata seems the same
Hope there are platforms or barriers at some point otherwise the gameplay won't be different despite playing in another stage

It's a shame that I can't play as either of these characters
I'd pay double for this game two days early. I'm dying to play it.
What's that yellow bar at the top of each character
An HP bar. Instead of being knocked out immediately when you touch a ball that isn't tagged with your color like in the previous game, the ball will take some of your health away instead. The amount of damage you take is based on the current speed of the ball. When the HP bar is flashing, it means you will be knocked out the next time you get hit.

Health bar
I hope they add more characters
So How To Play This Game.....
I'm getting megabyte punch vibes from this because of how it's the same company and there fighting style. Still kinda sad no one did a full series on megabyte
DAMN THIS INTENSE
Could you make lethal league on switch ?
6 days left
1:27 latch achieve demi god combos
>risa
SUSPICIONS CONFIRMED, I fucking knew that's what that skin was!
Croco boy for the win!
shit got so real at 1:29
How is it possible for latch to bunt so many times in a row in the air???
Double jumps
the cell shaded 3d models dont look great but neat
Does anyone know if you can play with local friends vs online?
Yes you can
Both infact, even 4 player free for all
God I’m SOOOOO ready
It's cool just watching it.
THESE JUGGLES THO
how does catching the ball work??
Press a button to catch, then you immediately throw either straight forward or straight down. It beats parry.
BixHD When the ball is in front of your character you can grab the ball and throw it. This only works when the ball is in front of you and in grab range. This is easier at lower speeds or when the ball is going straight up or down, and trickier at more higher speeds or when the ball is going at different angles
When the ball is grabbed you can throw it either forward or downward and is meant to trick up the opponent. However, grabbing does not speed up the ball and is meant to have the ball move slightly faster than usual until it hits the wall. It does make for a good means of gaining early energy.
Throwing can also be used to parry the blue burst affect around the ball which sends the opponent back when they try to hit it. However, when you grab when this is happening you hijack their ball and throw it back at them which can usually result in a KO at higher speeds. This means that Parries beat Swings, Swings beat Throws, Throws beat Parries.
there is dice without that hat right?
No, only tall hat boi dice and school uniform dice without the tall hat
because why HAT

@@redamber483 because hat characters are superior😂

Game is awesome but I'm really dissapointed because my friend can barely run it with his pc. I expected this, but not to the level of his pc making loud audible noise. Guess I'll have to play solo.

Anyone hype for ps4 release!?
J e e z.
Im waiting for console
spring 2019 is the release for xbox ps4 and switch.
THICCnata
Jeez
This is cool and all but not hearing people hype out while playing is jarring.
TEAM REPTILE, I GOT A GENIUS IDEA. MAKE AN EASY MODE FOR NEW PLAYERS IN THE STORY CAN HAVE AN EASIER TIME PLAYING. ok thanks byeeee
On the one side, I am extremely hyped for Blaze, on the other side, I am sad that one of the first gameplay I see is the playstyle that truly killed Lethal League.
Mind explaining? I'm curious. I assume you mean the build special meter by keeping the ball to yourself?
Are you new? Also, that existed since Day 1, so no, that thing is just basics.
I'm not. I just was never aware of tactics like in this video since I play exclusively with my friends.
@@ITSGOOD2BKING You know, you should probably keep it that way. That way LL is supposed to be played, and have the benefit of enjoying it like it was the release date of Dice, it's peek-time.
Out with it loser, why don't you like it?
