Hook swings with mouse is MUCH easier to do, but it requires more practice, because you need to approach very quickly and the mouse turn speed is so high that the swing happens faster then moving behind the back.
I’d say this is a fairly good technique but like literally just go to hero showdown and try ur best to 1v1 duel someone and just go for “only” hook swings and nothing else. I say hero showdown cause hvv is way harder when you’re getting mobbed by multiple enemies so yeah
yes totally this is a great way to practice too - and yes HVV is harder with all of the other players spamming attack and abilities - duels are the easiest live game practice environment
Just get a second controller and a mate to hold block and make sure u 1.jump 2. Turn 3. Swing And hopefully with enough practise you can hit them consistently! Nice vid man i post showdown clips and this was quite helpful for when I play ga/ cs
How do you turn right and hookswing? Turning left comes naturally because your thumb slides off the jump button straight to the right analogue stick, but turning right is just so damn awkward. Any tips?
Ah you silly hook swing users thinking it'll work. It's easy to counter because you leave yourself completely open to abilities, parries, and dodge + swing. I've encountered so many hook swing users and they never EVER work on me. Noobs can be taken down with them sure but so could being aggressive and unpredictable. But good luck people I'll see you the battlefield under my boot.
@@stevengull6703 I don’t hook. I patiently wait for you to grow impatient and then I parry you into another galaxy. Are you on Xbox? Let’s see what you’ve got.
@W4rd3NM855 so you turtle? All I have to do then is either out maneuver or parry your parry. I'm not nearly as good as Anarchyninja but I was able to make him get serious and have to focus. You stand no chance.
U do it wrong. U Strike before u Turned 180. And u Jump too high . Ill recommend doing ist in hvv and hs. This Way u might learn it but a real match is something different. Look the video from Kv Casti for a good tutorial
Actually you want to jump slightly different heights depending on where you take off from (and also sometimes depending on ground elevation -e.g. if you are jumping but your opponent is slightly uphill) - the tap jump only works when you are right next to your opponents shoulder when you jump. And yes Vinnie is a fantastic player and great guy - definitely watch his videos if you want to see a great player in action. The point of this video is to determine if you are able to jump and then hit your opponent's back in a practice environment, if I was striking before I turned it wouldn't 1 shot the troopers
@u Yes this is true although the second hit only does a little damage - it's more if you hit right on top of the opponent than if you hit before your turn
Step One: 100% Sensitivity
Step Two: Get Gud.
Or increase your sensitivity little by little

Are you on PC or Xbox/Playstation.

Yeah hero showdown, then make sure you get a low level noob to practice on. Might work pretty well
Turning off aim assist is just as important as high sensitivity
Why’s that?
@@cecure pretty sure it slows your aim down as a sabre hero making you less accurate in important situations, I still have to turn mine off.
Thank you I've been trying so hard in game modes n always end up swinging too early
Just get a second controller and a mate to hold block and make sure u
1.jump
2. Turn
3. Swing
And hopefully with enough practise you can hit them consistently!

yes if you have someone to practice with that is the better option for sure
@@xsaberx1125 if u want u can jus tape it down bro😂
I used rey, but mind trick them. They still move a little. And you can practice with a light side hero. 😊

Get a scuff controller
3:13 “so what you want to do is hit them from the back” kinda sus ngl
You do this with a mouse ? Or Console control ?
How can you play as villains in arcade? It doesn’t let me like it just doesn’t give me the option
There should be a button called change faction. For xbox, It's the X button and PS4 it's one of the side buttons but I don't own a PS4
But i use 30 sens when i okay whit a troopper and if i go higher i cant hit shit
good tips
whenever i jump turn and swing i’m only hitting them for 100 and it stops am i not going high enough or what
U have to jump through the enemy or over his shoulder, turn the camera and attack
Right as you are passing through their body jump, turn then swing in that order
@@dv9334 thanks

Should this be taken serious? I read this in the voice of a villain from a children story.
@W4rd3NM855 no please go use hook swings. Makes it easier for me.

@@stevengull6703 Bro, you’ve never dueled anyone who had a stick better than bacon. C’mon, bro. Let’s go.
Damn i play a 60 sensetivity 100 is really really fast
I played on 100 from the start
Once you get use it it feels normal.
@@uzicarries8582 yeah, now i play 100 aswell
After playing 100 for some time , it’s now starting to feel slow 😬
@@chaitanyakhokhar8341 same for me
U Jump too high just tap the button
It's slightly longer than just a tap
