You have great thoughts about the strength and weaknesses of Fleet. You have a deep sense of platfighter game knowledge! Thanks for sharing a bit of it
This looks like everything I wish smash ultimate robin was: "zoning" moves that are instead best used as aggressive set ups or follow ups for a run-in, unique and strange combo. Great video.
God robin was done so dirty in smash. Love the flavor but why is one of the fastest characters in FE so slow. At least Incineroar makes sense as a grappler. Why is the sword mage slow!
I feel like Fleet most ressembles Ultimate Mega Man, a zoner but that needs to play mid ranged, that can combo using her projectiles, really good at edgegarding and taking stocks offstage (their down airs are pretty similar too, and the time based explosion reminds me of Mega Man's crash bomb) As I'm a Mega Man main myself I think I'll main Fleet in Rivals 2 Thanks for this video ! I didn't really get how the dice worked until now
please, if you can, do a video like this on every playable character!! You have NO idea how much I'm burning to know all the character's special pummels, special ledge attacks, special getups, and throws. I NEED TO KNOW!
I already wanted to play Fleet because of her being from the rouge like and after seeing this I'm just more hyped for this game. Thank you so much for breaking her down
One additional thing about her wing charge mechanic is that if you whiff a charged arrow it will stick into the ground or walls and you can actually go pick up the arrow to refund the wind charge
The more I've watched you talk about Fleet in streams and videos like this, the more I feel inclined to learn her alongside Maypul. She seems pretty awesome to move around and play, her strings don't seem too intensive for me, and her range does give me what I'd be lacking due to Sylvanos not being included in the base cast. Thank you for the overview!
Came to this video immediately once I tried her in the training room of the first beta just now. I was so confused, and this cleared up just about everything! Thanks!
I'm mostly trying to avoid spoilers for this game but ever since I first saw fleet I knew she was probably gonna be my main, mostly just because I love bows in video games, something about them is just so fun After watching the vid, yep, I love this moveset, kinda reminds me of Toon Link in smash ultimate, that's really the only character I've played in the few platform fighters I have played that she looks similar too
I am SO hyped for rivals 2. I backed as soon as Orcane accidentally leaked on that loading screen bug, cause he's my main, but I feel like I'd have bought it regardless seeing all of the cool stuff they have added.
I played the dungeons of aether demo once, here's what's up with the dice thing: The way the game works is that every turn several dice of different numbers and colors are rolled. You and the enemy take turns picking them to boost your stats for the turn, with the colors corresponding to attack, defense, speed, and technique (which unlocks more moves depending on the value). You have a resource called stamina, which is gained through using items and I believe can be bought between runs in story mode, which is why in Rivals Fleet recovers passive charges with apples. Stamina can typically be spent to add points to a stat for the turn so you can improve the outcome of a turn that otherwise wouldn't be good. There's also "stamina dice", which aren't directly related to the stamina stat and instead are like wild card dice that can give full value in any stat you want (normal dice that are 2 or higher can be placed in the wrong stat but will only give +1 to it). The idea behind Fleet's neutral special is that she's spending stamina to temporarily power up her bow, and they just use the stamina die as a visual representation of it. If they do end up changing the visuals for clarity, they'll probably just take more inspiration from Dungeons where stamina is always shown in yellow text, shortened to "STA", and is represented with a lightning bolt symbol. Maybe something like [⚡️6] would work best
I love Fleet already from her being voiced by Faye Mata (Voice of Petra from FE3H, Astolfo from Fate/Apocrypha, Aqua from Konosuba, Rin Hoshizora from Love live, etc.) so I'm really happy that she looks cool in this game
@@atWisely my requirement usually isn't a big bruiser. You just gotta hit hard enough to make the other person shit their pants... Or move stylishly enough to do the same. I need BAMF energy for the main. Lemme dabble with fleet tho
Yeah, I wanted to give more of a general overview and not just do a "Here's all the moves" video( I didn't go over all the strong attacks or throws either), but tried to hopefully showcase enough of them in the actual footage!
fun fact : she's also funny as hell in Dungeons (and definitely deserves to be the poster child for that game (although I love Artemis with all my gay heart))
the biggest problem with rivals 2 to me is the voice work... it just sounds like... cheap. they squeal and chirp and it sounds cringe. Like a bad anime dub of course, when the voices are the only thing i have issue with, the game is good
Not that I'm aware of right now, but mine felt fine playing in standard mode in the alpha. Notably I had issues with tilt deadzones in the Genesis test last year, so something must've changed since then
She can't apply her neutral special to ANY move that uses arrows. It seems to be any move that uses a "normal" arrow. For example, you CAN'T apply neutral special with Down Strong and Forward Throw, as these attacks appear to use their own unique arrows that are already enhanced in some way. Personally I think you can make a compelling argument for the die mechanic. The sides of a 6 sided die are clear and quickly communicate information without being arabic numbers - which is relevant when you have other numbers right next to it (damage%). Dice are often used for simple counting in tabletop games. And being concerned about spectators being confused is strange in a game where spectators are inevitably going to be confused - "what does puddle do" "what does seed mark do" "what does heat do" - Rivals is absolutely brimming with mechanics that require explanation. I think the actual issue with it is that the animation rolls the die, implying randomness. If the die simply spun down I think it would be less of an issue. Edit: Thanks for making all this rivals 2 content, by the way!!!
Yeah, there's only so much I could include in one video, but the "special" arrows is a really good point. Same with being able to pick up arrows off the ground. I like the spin down idea!
UPDATE: Pummel has been reworked. Special pummel now directly plants a wind mine, and regular pummel gives you a wind charge food to grab.
Food?
“…most like pit from project m” activated every neuron in my brain, def gonna try fleet out on launch
came down here to post this
She's like if pit and toon link got combined but then there's a bunch of other stuff and you're not really sure how it got there
She reminds me of like a mix of pm pitt and snake im a fan im ngl
Fav rivals content creator thx for making these vids
Thank you!
"I think the character she plays the most like is Project M Pit."
I'm buying this game immediately.
fleet fleet fleet fleet fleet fleet fleet yippee
You have great thoughts about the strength and weaknesses of Fleet. You have a deep sense of platfighter game knowledge! Thanks for sharing a bit of it
NEW RIVALS 2 WISELY VIDEO JUST DROPPED
TODAY IS GONNA BE A GOOD DAY
wizard of legend enjoyer?
This looks like everything I wish smash ultimate robin was: "zoning" moves that are instead best used as aggressive set ups or follow ups for a run-in, unique and strange combo. Great video.
play hewdraw remix robin you'll get EXACTLY what you're looking for- Float and all
God robin was done so dirty in smash. Love the flavor but why is one of the fastest characters in FE so slow. At least Incineroar makes sense as a grappler. Why is the sword mage slow!
of course the fox is top tier
I feel like Fleet most ressembles Ultimate Mega Man, a zoner but that needs to play mid ranged, that can combo using her projectiles, really good at edgegarding and taking stocks offstage (their down airs are pretty similar too, and the time based explosion reminds me of Mega Man's crash bomb)
As I'm a Mega Man main myself I think I'll main Fleet in Rivals 2
Thanks for this video ! I didn't really get how the dice worked until now
That looks like such a fun character! I look forward to seeing what unorthodox combos people come up with!
Nice wisely, putting this out just in time for genesis because Fleet is about to not be the newest rivals 2 character 😂
Oh the title is definitely changing in a week LOL
Just like my beloved, Marth Dair
please, if you can, do a video like this on every playable character!!
You have NO idea how much I'm burning to know all the character's special pummels, special ledge attacks, special getups, and throws.
I NEED TO KNOW!
Watch moveset monday :)
I woke up literally rn, awesome way to wake up!
Awesome, she looks great. Looking forward to learning her basics when we get that beta soon-ish.
I already wanted to play Fleet because of her being from the rouge like and after seeing this I'm just more hyped for this game. Thank you so much for breaking her down
She has such a fun energy aesthetically, too! I like her humming taunt
I am surprised of how powerfull she is in this game. In Dungeons, she looked like a common girl, with just a bow ready for action
One additional thing about her wing charge mechanic is that if you whiff a charged arrow it will stick into the ground or walls and you can actually go pick up the arrow to refund the wind charge
omg holy shit FR?
@RiahGreen Yeah, but if someone else goes over it, they'll get it instead, and if it's another Fleet, she _will_ loot the charge!
I appreciate the explaination for the character's move set. Thanks!
The more I've watched you talk about Fleet in streams and videos like this, the more I feel inclined to learn her alongside Maypul.

tbh pm dorf float is what i compared her float to from my first impressions of her. glad to hear it's more like that lol
IMPORTANT QUESTION can u b reverse the neutral b
UHHHHHH I'LL TRY NEXT WEEKEND
I am SO hyped for rivals 2. I backed as soon as Orcane accidentally leaked on that loading screen bug, cause he's my main, but I feel like I'd have bought it regardless seeing all of the cool stuff they have added.
2:22 I literally forgot that he was talking Abt fleet when he saw his dog. So cute!
Somebody REALLY likes fleet foxes
I can tell fleet's float is already under appreciated as a movement tool, im gonna go crazy with that shit
fun fact: Fleet is voiced by Faye Mata, the same voice actress as Aki in street fighter 6 and Lulu in league of legends
I'll get to play three characters with the same voice, nice
I'm so hyped to see the different styles top fleet players develop over time. I feel like she has a ton of room for individuality
Good 🅱️ideo
Thank you 🅱️alt
I don't even play rivals but I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video
I played the dungeons of aether demo once, here's what's up with the dice thing:

so many words to say "she doesn't"
Just you wait Zeeb
She definitely does :)
I love Fleet already from her being voiced by Faye Mata (Voice of Petra from FE3H, Astolfo from Fate/Apocrypha, Aqua from Konosuba, Rin Hoshizora from Love live, etc.) so I'm really happy that she looks cool in this game
!dice
LOL
As an ultimate Pit player and a ttrpg player, I cannot wait to get my hands on this character and the game in general
gotta say that beard is splendid sir
Yea the dice are a bad indicator. They should use the Stamina number from Dungeons of Aether. Still a callback but not ... bad design.
I felt like Samus is in a similar way, a zoner who also wants to go into the opponent sometimes.
Great video!
Her down air is like Mega Man’s dair on crack :)
Good thing I main Clairen. Her shield might come in handy against all those arrows.
the world if i could play rivals 2 already:
I'm so excited for this gaaaaame!!
Bro your stache is magnificent. It's so hard for me to keep it that long. I cant eat shit
i bet you can parry her side special tornado on reaction consistently. i wonder if it just reflects it or if it puts her into stun?
Probably a bit more difficult to set up with the initial fast arrow - wonder how tight a timing shielding the arrow and parrying the tornado will be
it reflects it and sends the tornado the full distance that it would move if launched from the start
Like Ganon's float huh?
Hmm.... 🤔
LOL (thank you for the sick footage)
Do you want a float, or do you want a big bruiser?
@@atWisely my requirement usually isn't a big bruiser. You just gotta hit hard enough to make the other person shit their pants... Or move stylishly enough to do the same.
I need BAMF energy for the main. Lemme dabble with fleet tho
Fleet to me seems the most like Yukari from Persona 4 arena max. They are incredibly similar lol
7:54
_phew_ alright
I just want to know where you got the shirt lmao.
AND I SAID HEEEYEEEEAHHHH HEEEEYYAAAAAHHHEEAH I SAID HEY, WHATS GOING ON
Fleet pics
It wasn’t the point of the video but you didn’t go over tilts
Yeah, I wanted to give more of a general overview and not just do a "Here's all the moves" video( I didn't go over all the strong attacks or throws either), but tried to hopefully showcase enough of them in the actual footage!
Dude I saw you at genesis.
You weren't clear enough with how the dice mechanic works imo. How do you get the dice to go up to you don't have to do the apple thing?
Yeah, you increase the counter by eating food, but I definitely talk about that in the video, haha. Glad to clarify either way
Fleet cute
So the name Fleet is a reference to Fleet Foxes, right?
It's gotta be, right?
Fleet is closest to hdr robin, those who know will know
This game will be better then smash ultimate besides the amount of characters
fun fact : she's also funny as hell in Dungeons (and definitely deserves to be the poster child for that game (although I love Artemis with all my gay heart))
the biggest problem with rivals 2 to me is the voice work... it just sounds like... cheap. they squeal and chirp and it sounds cringe. Like a bad anime dub
of course, when the voices are the only thing i have issue with, the game is good
Is there a box firmware with rivals 2 angles atm?
Not that I'm aware of right now, but mine felt fine playing in standard mode in the alpha. Notably I had issues with tilt deadzones in the Genesis test last year, so something must've changed since then
Why did they put in the obnoxious Fleet and not ... anyone else. She is full of Marvel Deviant Arts writing
fox girls rule the world
Marvel deviant art writing means nothing. People just be saying anything now. Shes just a happy character.
!dice
She can't apply her neutral special to ANY move that uses arrows. It seems to be any move that uses a "normal" arrow. For example, you CAN'T apply neutral special with Down Strong and Forward Throw, as these attacks appear to use their own unique arrows that are already enhanced in some way.

bro she is a guilty gear character with these mechanics
Fleet definitely seems the most interesting to me. Can’t wait to play the beta!
