    i'm glad you were willing to play loxodont and act as one of the first insights in how that character works. as a ddd main in ult, even if he seems to take more from brawl/PM ddd, i'm glad he's up my alley.

    What I absolutely *love* about RoA, is that they give heavy weights the versatility they deserve in order to combat against zoners or getting juggled.
    As a Ganondorf main, I have to ask. Does Loxodont feel like once he's downloaded by the community, he loses his advantage?
    I say feel, because it's too early to obviously determine anything.

      In a lot of games heavy characters are slow and lack range.
      It seems like Rivals 2 gives mobility and range to their heavies instead of endless super armor.

    • @TuesdayTastic

      I wouldn't say so. There's so many ways you can approach a situation as him that even if you're downloaded you can still mix things up.

      @@bruno213 what does "downloaded" mean in this context?

    • @bruno213
      @bruno213 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      When a character and or player, essentially becomes predictable, either in obvious patterns or through conditioning your opponent into predictable choices. You "download" their playstyle, inorder to interpret the options they pick, given a situation.
      For example, will they roll forward or backward? With enough information and time, you're able to predict the option they take with higher accuracy, because of what you have digested through your time fighting them.
      Ganondorf for example, is a very easy character to download because most of his attacks don't leave him with many options after any of his initial moves. He's a hard hitter and super heavy weight but doesn't mean anything when your opponent "downloaded" how you and your character works.
      Ganondorf in the beginning of Smash Ultimate was consider actually decent. However, that was only because no one knew how avoid his attacks and his strengths came from punishing people's mistakes. Once the SU community grew to understand how all the characters worked, Ganondorf was pushed down all the way to the 2nd worst character in the game.

    When I got to try out Rivals 2 at Genesis I was totally expecting to stick to my Rivals 1 main in Kragg as I got used to the new mechanics, but somehow something about Loxodont just clicked with me immediately. His weight and attacks feel so satisfying to use, and his strategy of biding his time to build up power is not only super cool and perfect for a heavyweight, but is also extremely fitting for his character. Once again Aether Studios knocked it out of the park in regards to designing heavies for plat-fighters and I couldn't be happier.
    Clairen also felt super smooth to me compared to Rivals 1, so I'm honestly thinking about co-maining the duo in a bit of lore-related irony haha. Great video and gameplay, and can't wait to see and play more once the betas start rolling out!

    You described Loxodont exactly how I felt playing him in the Kickstarter beta. Though I didn't think of Ganondorf. But Dedede is one of my mains in Smash Bros, and having a fusion between him, Ike, and Ganondorf is just so fun.

      Yes all the mechanics you could expect to find in Rivals of Aether 1 are mostly carried over to this game. The main thing that stood out to me as being different was that you can't wall jump out of Up-Special anymore which nerfs a lot of recoveries but ledges make up for that.

      I understand that but I'm definitely biased considering Ultimate is my main game. I think Rivals fans still have a lot to look forward to and while the addition of shields and ledges does make scenarios play out a little more like smash, at the end of the day it's more rivals than smash.

    • @TuesdayTastic
      @TuesdayTastic  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think it fills a slightly different niche than Rivals 1. Rivals 1 is a very unique feeling game and Rivals 2 feels a lot closer to Smash. I imagine some players may stick with Rivals 1 because of that. But I do believe that it will become just as good if not better than Rivals 1. The engine is already there it just needs content and polish.
