hey guys, sorry I did not check the uploaded version properly, there are some footage in the video that are frozen, but u can hear the sound of the footage because they are supposed to be moving in the project, but my PC was having issues when rendering this project (its in the repair shop now), so it froze my clips without me knowing and I missed them. They happened here: 9:28 the clip froze when I'm showing the draw attack spirit blade 1 (no big deal) 19:28 the clip was supposed to show the hits spreading to unwanted spots when multiple body parts are within the striking path, but its frozen (this one is important, sry)
Not only are these the best MHW weapon guides, but they are also made for us forgotten mouse and keyboard players! Thank you so much for continuing these!
Na fr though this makes me so happy. I've never been a console fan despite playing ps3 and 4 for a lot of my childhood i always felt more comfortable with mouse and keyboard as i just felt like i had more precision and reacted faster but man a lot of games have god awful pc controls
Most players on PC are mkb. The controls are actually really good. I'm like the lone controller player in my group on PC because the souls series convinced me that action RPGs are bad with mkb. How wrong was I lol.
This is the best longsword video I have found by far!!! Amazing detail!!! You are the grandmaster here and I hope to see more content with MHWilds releases!
Amazing tutorial. Even I, as a LS main, learned something new. All info is relevant and good paced. I'll recommend you if somebody will search for a guide. It's a bit early, but I'll wait for the guides same quality for Wilds 😄
This video is a gem. Thank you so much Mister TorpedoSoup. I've been searching for a comprehensive video for so long regarding ANY weapon and this one is the best one by a long shot. You've managed to provide such in-depth info regarding the weapon mechanics without needing the listener to already know how the game works. I'm a brand new player (played for less than a week) and I've managed to gather so much useful information from this, it's honestly stunning. You, Sir, have made a long sword main out of me. Heading to the training area asap.
glad to hear that because my goal for these guides is to provide both the basics as well as some advanced tips so that new and old players can benefit, so this actually makes me happy.
I've watched a lot of guides for MH over the years and this one may be the best. I love all the little details that most people never talk about (like amount of spirit gauge generated from different attacks) Thanks for the great video, and the PC controls
My friends have gotten me to play MHW with them, a series I've never played before and they all have, and I recently picked up the long sword. Man, do I ever wish this tutorial was around when I did! Not only is it broken down nicely for noobs it also covered stuff I had to watch multiple videos for and I STILL learned new so things! I knew foresight slash was important (and I'm still bad at using it) but I didn't realize how important until now. Also the amount of times my helmbreaker missed because I was too far back or the monster flinched??? really wish I knew sooner that I could move forward with it! Fantastic tutorial! I'm definitely taking notes for our next play session
Glad you found the guide useful for you. Everyone knows foresight slash is useful but rarely have I seen people discuss or teach about how changing the direction and angle of foresight slash can really change your gameplay. And yea you can move a little during helmbreaker.
Just stated to play LS, and wanted to have a proper guide to learn every details about the weapon. That's the best guide I've ever seen, keep up the good work man, ty soooo much
Amazing Video. I've been playing this game for about 40h now and after watching this Video I just realized how ineffectively I've been using the longsword. This is going to improve my Gameplay by a ton. Thanks a lot !
This guide is incredible. Jam packed with useful information. I love how detailed and specific each move is explained. Goes over all the important stuff. Damn i was doing longsword all wrong!😂
I experiment with this weapon and see the accomplishment it is, in a simple resume is beatiful. I'm glad to see a guide about the Sword And Shield, because is my favorite weapon
Learning longsword for the first time and this tutorial is amazingly thorough. It's especially helpful being done in mouse & key. I agree with the comment of the AI voice putting me off at first as it almost made me leave before the video really started, but I'm glad I didn't. I will definitely be coming back if I ever want to learn another weapon. Cheers.
Absolute GOAT, you're the best for making these 🔥 I'm an IG main and Gunlance + ranged weapons are the only ones I'm totally uncomfortable with at this point... Can't wait to see one of those from you
Thank you so much! With my upcoming schedule, new guides are looking unlikely for now. New stuff happening irl. But always appreciate the support buddy!
LS is the only melee weapon I don't know how to play yet. It didn't really catch my interest but what does catch my interest is to learn every weapon and this video is the best oportunity ever, love ya!
Great guide as usual. Nice! Would like to add, overhead slash > fadeslash > spirit jumping slash > thrust > SB3 > roundslash is slightly faster than step slash > overhead > fade slash >spirit combo. The only downside to this is if you didn't hit a weakspot cause you will have insufficient gauge.
Man I really want to thank you for the work you are putting in this videos. Found out your channel with HH guide and it helped so much, then I picked up CB thanks to your guide and had great fun with it, and recently I hoped you would upload the LS, and boom, here we are, perfect timing. Hands down best weapon guides on yt, godspeed 🙏
Oh wow perfect timing then. Thanks for the kind words dude im glad you found the guides useful, thats the best thing to hear for someone who making guides
Great great guide mate, appreciated. I'm a returning hunter, after like 5 years of break. Heard about Wilds is gonna release soon so I wanted to get back into shape and clear that Iceborne dlc which I havent before. I loved Longsword and was decent with it but I'm so rusty, needed to remember what's up and this video explains everything perfectly, thank you.
Please do this with every class hehe. Not even capping these are the best tutorials. I main sns cuz it's fun and straight forward but I'd love to dive into either the ranged weapons or the heavy hitting ones
Wanted to say Thank You cause in a round a bout way you made 2 HH mains,my Master a small Streamer called Teco learned HH because of your HH Montage video and now i'm learning the basics and advanced techs with him. Ironically i'm an LS main that's why I was surprised to see this video especially since I learned about you 2 days ago because of my Master.
very glad to hear that! oh yes I do play all the weapons I just main HH and play it more. The reason the guides come so late is because of how long it takes to make each of them, pretty much impossible to release 1 weapon right after another.
Not only is this guide in depth, it also does not contain cringe words that say "Press X" or "Press Circle". One of these best guides i have seen. keep up the good work.
Damn, Azure Star heard me when I yelled at the clear blue sky asking for proper updated guides for MHW:I You are the best, my brother in Rathalos! Keep’em coming! Btw if you are reading this - please stay safe - we need you when Wilds will come out❤ I have watched your Swax, CB and now LS guides, trying to find my new main weapon (after 1st trying Barioth I understood that my Insect Glaive is too efficient in steamrolling the monster, so I’m attempting self imposed challenge). As I watch everything is so smooth and kinda simple - then I try it in the field to get my ass smacked. Props to you nether the less! You have a talent in writing, montaging and showcasing! Please more showcases in real battles btw lol
@@mohanmc1681 im glad you found these guides useful. Thanks a lot for the support bro, i hope i have more free time when wilds is out too as im currently busy with irl work. i will try nevertheless, cheers
HE HAS RETURNED, MONHUN-GUIDE-JESUS HAS RETURNED!! (i started playing maining swaxe and horn thanks to your videos, helped me solo even fatalis all thanks to you!! gonna ever do a guide for glaive?)
Thanks! Glad u liked them. To be completely honest with u, glaive is not currently in the timeline, i barely have time to edit cause of real life so i cant even say for sure what i will release next. I will do my best
Amazing, could you one day do a video on bows? i feel like even though I've progressed a lot there is a ton I don't know about bow usage. Especially on keyboard and mouse😅
I suck at doing damage with my weapons, I hope when I switch to longsword a new weapon that I will kill monsters more easily especially the shrieking Legiana I am still at (it fled) but the information quality of this video is pretty good so I'm looking into it tomorrow
Atlas best vid ever and very well explain,idk why but my pc the ctrl is the first button on mouse but now I know ctrl is that what I don't know is what space is so wasn't doing the counter hit
@@danielmaldonado6388 yea check the table i included in the intro. If u bought your game recently you have the new keys, ctrl will be mouse 5 for u. Spacebar is just the dodge button. If u dont own iceborne u cannot do the special sheathe
thanks so much for this! I have World and Iceborne on my steam but have yet to play them (Currently playing Rise on gamepass). But i want to ask, are the iai sheathe and clutch claw from the iceborne expansion can be used from the start of the base game? Because I really love Iai sheathe in Rise
amazing explaination,very good video... and i understand everything thank you.. you just got new subscriber💥👏👍 And for your information sheate slash only open when you have monster hunter iceborne DLC, the skill will still locked.. already search it on internet and try it its failed in MHW

@@humblehomunculus2722definitely not among the mh fanbase
Forgotten for just reasons....
I'm very new to Monster Hunter, and 20 hours in, I only realized, I have been playing longsword wrong the entire time after watching this video
Welcome to the hunt!
Best Longsword kit guide ever made with a SIMPLE RULE, SHOW NOT TELL, you show AND tell perfectly. HAT OFF to you
This is the best longsword video I have found by far!!! Amazing detail!!! You are the grandmaster here and I hope to see more content with MHWilds releases!
Very detailed guide. Even with 1.6k hours in IB, I still learned something from this. Keep it coming.
Amazing tutorial. Even I, as a LS main, learned something new. All info is relevant and good paced. I'll recommend you if somebody will search for a guide.
It's a bit early, but I'll wait for the guides same quality for Wilds 😄
about 800 hours with ls and still learned something new. such an well-made and informative guide!
This man made me the CB player I am today much respect . Can't wait to see your guides for Wilds
This video is a gem.

This is a fantastic guide, holy moly. Thanks, I was definitely suboptimally longswording.
Just picked up the game on discount. I played MH:Rise with DB. Time to play with Longsword now, this guide makes things easy!
The Hunting Horn Maestro himself doing an LS guide? Colour me impressed
I've watched a lot of guides for MH over the years and this one may be the best. I love all the little details that most people never talk about (like amount of spirit gauge generated from different attacks)
Thanks for the great video, and the PC controls
You have the best visual-aid in your tutorials, Soup ! Respect for all the effort u put into making these tutorials 🙏 Great job
Thanks cake! And you are excellent with funny ideas! Always finding a way to mix modern memes with MH, always found those amusing

I LOVE YOU BRO YOU SAVED ME AFTER 360 HOURS OF GAMEPLAY I FOUND A MAIN WEAPON THANKS TO YOU KEEP IT UP
The information quality and details in this video are just top notch.
very detailed tutorial, learnt something even after 1000+ longsword hunts.
I just started in monster hunter didn't know what I was doing but with this video I can practice
this guide is very informative without any bullcrap, thanks
Just stated to play LS, and wanted to have a proper guide to learn every details about the weapon. That's the best guide I've ever seen, keep up the good work man, ty soooo much

I was having so muc trouble with positioning and didn't even know most moves had directionals. Thank you!!
@@balloon3503 glad this helped! Adding directions to your moves will drastically change your gameplay, goodluck!
I will be coming back to this video routinely for the next two weeks. Hope both sides of your pillow stay cold! ❤

I've been maining long sword since release and still learned a few things. Great video!
Your charge blade guide was amazing, this one was just as good.
LS is the only melee weapon I don't know how to play yet. It didn't really catch my interest but what does catch my interest is to learn every weapon and this video is the best oportunity ever, love ya!
nice info especially about the slide and jump attacks.
Literally just picked up Longsword in mhw iceborne. This is perfect thank you.
level of depth in this video is insane. gj
Great guide as usual. Nice!
Would like to add, overhead slash > fadeslash > spirit jumping slash > thrust > SB3 > roundslash is slightly faster than step slash > overhead > fade slash >spirit combo. The only downside to this is if you didn't hit a weakspot cause you will have insufficient gauge.
seems to be the best long sword guide I've seen; especially given its pc. :D

“And you should never ever do this” almost took me out.
Made a new run wanting to try the Katana and damn this guide is literally perfect
This is one of the best guide videos to touch youtube. Great job! (He's getting his channel ready for MH Wilds) 😂🎉
Great great guide mate, appreciated. I'm a returning hunter, after like 5 years of break. Heard about Wilds is gonna release soon so I wanted to get back into shape and clear that Iceborne dlc which I havent before.

keenly waiting on a greatsword guide
FINALLY SOMEONE WITH PC TUTORIALS
Wanted to say Thank You cause in a round a bout way you made 2 HH mains,my Master a small Streamer called Teco learned HH because of your HH Montage video and now i'm learning the basics and advanced techs with him.

i feel enlightened
my first run was long sword, after this amazing vid surely ill try some katana style again
I always try new weapons with every MH game but find my way back to longsword everytime, IDK why people hate the weapon so much but it's my favourite.
Great video, very concise with whats being said also being shown .
very well spoken and informative. well done friend
it's incredible how many things i didnt know about the weapon what i use every day, thank you Torpedo😀😀
WE ARE SO BACK!!!!
A very detailed long sword guide i've every seen.
I liked the video more than anticipated, well done.
Not only is this guide in depth, it also does not contain cringe words that say "Press X" or "Press Circle". One of these best guides i have seen. keep up the good work.

Watch once in LR to learn the weapon. Watch again in MR to master it.
revision is good. especially after you have more personal experience
Waiting for ur lance guide XD
