So we are finally here and its a long one, timestamps on everything (use vid description if the chapters don't show up on the video) and well... skip around to whatever sounds good! Roshi is a complex character compared to most and he plays by a pretty different ruleset, but the Old dude has still got it!
Now the tips guide is done, expect some videos showcasing specific changes in depth coming up for certain characters, also Jiren or blugeta is next up in line for redone combos/guides
Here are some things I found. 1. After crossing up on a blocking opponent with a back kick you can back flip to land infront of them again. 2. After the last hit of the auto combo on a blocking opponent you can masterful leap while holding back to cross up the opponent in the corner with back kick. Edit: the second thing was said in the video at 31:50.
DeKu Skrub something similar to the second thing I found was said in the video at 32:20 but that was with sparking blast and cancelling the last hit into a jump and then airdashing behind the opponent and doing a jump medium.
It wasnt until i started playing roshi that i realized i have been super jump installing all of my IADs. So the great turtle hermit has taught me even more things.
I've been waiting for Roshi since day 1, I had plans to play him no matter what and this video will be a huge help in learning him. He looks so much more fun than I expected
Your tips and tricks are the best content on your channel. No one else in the world makes hour long character guides this good, let alone for as many different characters and games as you do. Hail the king of KONTENT!
I noticed that holding the last direction you used before with left or right superdash helps give the correct input. Like say a down heavy with smash, if you keep holding down and push right I think, you'll get the right follow up, or if you do 3h,you hold down 3 and get it. Im not sure about the others, but yall should try and see and post it here so I know that this is actually useful.
"What sort of creature are you?" "I man! Like you!" "I have never seen man fly..." "I no fly! Jump good!" Roshi then proceeds to begin his solo touch of death (which I hope does not exist but then again this is Roshi)
Thanks man, I'm trying to learn Master Roshi and you have the most in depth video of the character and the most beginner friendly, I'll be rewatching this video a lot when practicing him
Roshi wasn't necessarily jacked when he was younger as that was never insinuated. That's just his "full power" form like Freeza. Very informative video otherwise. 👍👍
Roshis level 2 doesn't just give baseku his spirit bomb. What's even more rare, (by that I think literally only Gotenks also does this), is that it allows basekus kaioken to get the Heavy grab anywhere on screen with zero extra setup. Meaning it allows Baseku to get the maximum possible damage out of kaioken that is straight up impossible to get by himself even in the corner, and especially even with kaioken x1. And considering gotenk's very low damage level 1 is the only other option to do this, Baseku + Roshi can do ridiculous damage together.
To followup this comment, roshis level 2 has this side switching factor with DHCs. Even though Roshi himself keeps the same side at the end of the super, if you DHC somewhat as the beam is starting then they'll appear on the other side. This is perfect for Baseku kaioken x1 because the max damage route is side switching. Meaning not only can Roshi grant him max damage kaioken, something that was already rare, but he can also let him pick which side he ends up on. Its almost as if these characters were designed with each other in mind.
I'm putting him as an anchor. He has sooo much solo mix up potencial as well great assists and damage. Hell, the guy doesn't even need sparking to cross you up mid blockstring. Sure, he benefits having teammates backing him up, but really... Who doesn't? When looking at an anchor you must consider what they are capable solo. And boy, he has plenty of tools at his disposal. Crossups, fake crossups, a plus on block move, grabs, excellent mobility, dominance in neutral, more than one defensive move and even a plus on block superdash (Which I think will get nerfed but thats for another day). I don't know, for me it seems that he has a very complete kit for the job, sure he is difficult to use, but hey... Practice makes the master am I right😎🐢?
i'd say for any rookie a pretty neat combo is like if you get the chance you use Ur evil containment wave + when the new charterer pops in you can use thunder shock surprise into his other special and you can use that second bar of key in general this combo is OP
Since it wasn't mentioned here, I guess his shades are purely cosmetic then and really don't ward off Solar Flare... Oh well. On a sidenote, I can at least encourage you to use the Shock on GT Gokus with impunity. Kid Goku was his first target since debuting after all.
32:50 I still have a lot of trouble pulling off this re-jump. I’ve tried it a lot and it’s a little annoying seeing so many people do this with what seems like very little effort, but I can’t string it all together without dropping it. Mostly the first super jump and ki attack to the standing 5M, I keep whiffing
Ssj gokus B assist has 45 frames of blockstun so it’s only 1 less then mr roshis and it’s multi hitting plus it got buffed so it comes out super fast. So if you’re running a team with them both either one could use their b assist or beam assist
A bit of a strange request, but do you have any tips for doing IADs with Roshi? I sadly use jump + forward + superdash shortcut to do them with other characters, but won't work as well with Roshi because he instead does his aerial Kamehameha. Also, I find that his flip is very useful for baiting people into his Thundershock Surprise. Blockstring, flip, and if they try to chicken block or do a DP, they get caught. Assuming it's an actual DP than a grounded reversal.
If you have the bar for it and they don't delay coming in, you can immediately hit the surprise beam and go directly into level 3 off of that Do it all the time
ok well dp is just dp, "dragon punch", an invincible reversal as made famous by ryu. Generally anything thats a "get off me" move can be labeled a DP and while maybe its not accurate to the original move it invokes the idea of a defensive special. Armour is armour, you just tank stuff, you get hit, you keep going. Guard point is similar to armour, but its less that you tanked the move, but more that you actually blocked it, the "guard point" is when the move hits, it effectively counts as you blocking the move and you keep going, rather than taking the damage like actual armour.
I was washing my dog watching this video. Roof? Did you cover his after image technique. I’ve only seen that done in the debut live stream and preview trailers and I never seen someone explain how to do that move
@@BoParaPara Oh, okay. Thanks for that. Knowing that [ahh I agree it's very cool looing] it would be his perfect C assist . I want more of this move in the game
It seems the 6S into hop into LL doesn't work against Gotenks (and maybe others, haven't tested for every character). The first L in the air connects, but you're too close to the ground to connect the second L. It's weird since it works against the other usual rats (GT, kid buu). Let me know if there's something I got wrong here.
Anyone got any tips to help with the Super Jump in his combos (I’m on PS4 pad and I accidentally QCF instead of SJ9 and end up doing his aerial special instead). And does anyone have the annotations for his corner loop that I could’ve sworn he had?
We saw young roshi in dragonball n he was a normal size guy lol tho I suppose he's like 300+ years old so he might have got hench after. Goku did seem to make him take marshal arts seriously lol I like how it's rare for a character to have a lv1 to lv1 broly like don't look at me with his LV3 to lv3 can even add on a lv1 if you got the bar aha
wont happen cause they'd either have to re-animate everything, or give everything new hitboxes. Gold frieza gets away with it cause its just a colour change but that's about it
@@rooflemonger yea its alot more work sure but if your gonna do a job may aswell do it the right way and i mean cmon who dosnt want more installs we all know you want the ape install most of all.

You forgot to mention one command normal, j. 2m to get sliding knockdown, also that 2s is air ok
there's nothing like a "hello and weeeelcommme" to brighten my day
Agreed, it's like wrapping myself up in a warm blanket
@@philipbrackett443 Especially when it's an hour long video. Feels good every single time
Same
Best intro greeting ever.
Love how Goku has Roshi’s stance
its the reason why he's in the vid!
rooflemonger respect.
I only just noticed that lol
As expected, it’s the turtle school stance since Dragon Ball!
Now the tips guide is done, expect some videos showcasing specific changes in depth coming up for certain characters, also Jiren or blugeta is next up in line for redone combos/guides
I want to see some 16 tech with the OTG hell flash. I tried to mess around in lab with him but my controller was broken.
@@diobrando5896 thats probably gonna be one of the showcase vids in the next few days
@@rooflemonger please do, I wanna know what u think of his new B assist and OTG
Me: “I’m not gonna waste any time this year”
Also me: *Watches a near full hour of roshi tutorial without having any money to buy him
I even have the game or the console, and I watched the full video hahah
I'm super far behind financially and still had to spring for Roshi 😍 #GetInTheJar
It's not wasted time if you enjoyed it.
Did you manage to buy Roshi yet?
Here are some things I found.
1. After crossing up on a blocking opponent with a back kick you can back flip to land infront of them again.
2. After the last hit of the auto combo on a blocking opponent you can masterful leap while holding back to cross up the opponent in the corner with back kick.
Edit: the second thing was said in the video at 31:50.
I think the second one was brought up in the video

@@coolj0sh118 he does it around 31:50
Even though I stopped playing the game after I got Janemba, these vids are therapeutic. Fantastic work
It wasnt until i started playing roshi that i realized i have been super jump installing all of my IADs. So the great turtle hermit has taught me even more things.
I've been waiting for Roshi since day 1, I had plans to play him no matter what and this video will be a huge help in learning him. He looks so much more fun than I expected
Master Roshis tricks have helped him get out of tough situations😀.

I'm insanely confused about how this man doesnt have a huge subscriber count with these FLAWLESS guides
This video is one of the better Dragonball movies, at least in the top half.
I noticed that holding the last direction you used before with left or right superdash helps give the correct input.

The crossup kick works the same way its 2m into down hop
“ he is not the best, but he has a lot to give” that’s Roshi alright
"What sort of creature are you?"
"I man! Like you!"
"I have never seen man fly..."
"I no fly! Jump good!"
Roshi then proceeds to begin his solo touch of death (which I hope does not exist but then again this is Roshi)
Thanks man, I'm trying to learn Master Roshi and you have the most in depth video of the character and the most beginner friendly, I'll be rewatching this video a lot when practicing him
I was literally thinking that Roshi/Piccolo/Base Goku would be a sick "early dbz" team and then you mention how their DHCs synergize super well!
Roshi wasn't necessarily jacked when he was younger as that was never insinuated. That's just his "full power" form like Freeza. Very informative video otherwise. 👍👍
"Notable Normals" that should really be a Jeopardy category 😀
Been waiting for this vid like a kid at comic con...thanks a lot!!!!
A one hour vid with only 2 ads? Damn roofle god bless you bro.
His combo challenge was crazy but I got it! Thanks to your video I actually kinda know how to use him. Fun, but not in the team main.
Very helpful video, Roof. I could use more videos like this to help my game out!
awesome, very helpful. although i still haven't got use to roshi's control

Youre are incredibleee!!
Pls bring one of gotenkss!! I need it
Krillin/Roshi/Tien. Team Chromedome FTW
Thx, now I can stop pressing random buttons and getting washed by mashers online
9:22 You can combo after it just by pressing 3H, not the assist
Important question: Do you prefer Roshi with or without glasses?
split the difference and give him a monocle
@@rooflemonger THIS is the only time centrism is valid. Truly, you are a genius
RooflemonGOAT!
I find the concept behind roshi pretty interesting. Since he can't really play the game like everyone else, he forces his opponent to play his game.
But.... Super dash go brrr.... 😥
You can also input his back ki twice to do a double flip
32:50 I still have a lot of trouble pulling off this re-jump. I’ve tried it a lot and it’s a little annoying seeing so many people do this with what seems like very little effort, but I can’t string it all together without dropping it. Mostly the first super jump and ki attack to the standing 5M, I keep whiffing
5:48 there is some assist that can help with that like gogeta A

The only way to IAD with Roshi is to use directional input so no real tips apart training
Man I love Roshi
637 views and the likes under 100 .come on yall show sensei rooflemonger some love smh
I love you rooflemonger
Yeah that raw tag is fing fierce
Lowkey Roshi might have really good situational OKI during 1v1's using his Evil Containment Wave.
If you have the bar for it and they don't delay coming in, you can immediately hit the surprise beam and go directly into level 3 off of that
Do it all the time
I wanna know what is the difference between DP, armor and gaurd point
ok well dp is just dp, "dragon punch", an invincible reversal as made famous by ryu. Generally anything thats a "get off me" move can be labeled a DP and while maybe its not accurate to the original move it invokes the idea of a defensive special.

i hope any of that made sense
@@rooflemonger you are really good at explaining. It's clear as day now
its not about the movement, its not about the specials or flashy combos, its about proving mutenroshi is the ultimate fighter
I was washing my dog watching this video. Roof? Did you cover his after image technique. I’ve only seen that done in the debut live stream and preview trailers and I never seen someone explain how to do that move
That is built into his light auto combo. It's one of my favourite visual auto combos in the game
@@BoParaPara Oh, okay. Thanks for that. Knowing that [ahh I agree it's very cool looing] it would be his perfect C assist . I want more of this move in the game

Someone please say the counter play to Roshi’s snapback into lightning besides vanish
I'll keep asking this but can get a broly community highlight real lol and I'm really feeling this video and looking forward to using more roshi.
I wouldn't be a highlight reel kinda guy I don't really pour through other peoples footage for vids, tons of chanels that do that already
@@rooflemonger I'll send a bunch of my own lol if you want to do that. Or maybe a broly discord you have?

How do you choose which character to snap back in? I know how to snap back but every time I’m not the one choosing who comes back in
Hold the assist button corresponding to whichever of your opponents characters you want to bring in
DeKu Skrub so if I’m on the left side then it’s r1 or r2 and if I’m on the right side then it’s L1 and L2?
DeKu Skrub and thanks!
But... thats not a guard point. That's just armor 🤨
Roshi is the men but hard to control
He too hard... TOOOOOOOO HAAARRRRD bro
Kamedasheha
Why does Roshi’s run have him fly (2:17)?
Everyone in DB can glide across the floor

Yeah, but Roshi can’t fly
Why not give him a running animation?
@@zombieguy4444 visual consistency, and also because it would look pretty bad
