The thing about Grimnir is that he's a dork that likes to look cool, his powers are wind based, so Max probably didn't get what he was doing during his SSBA, the rose was just to add to the cool factor.
@@myuugi I mean yeah. Max has never really been secretive about his biases when it comes to games. This ain't an objective look at supers, it's "here's what guy thinks about supers", and it's obvious which ones he'll gravitate to. If you're not a fan just skip these videos, cause I doubt they're gonna change.
I agree with most of his takes but I do kinda wish he gave Cagli a little more credit for creativity, it was one of the few supers that showed any real character.
@@ELDENLORD89 Honestly I don't think he was as harsh as he was just detached and reasonable. I think people who like it obviously will rate it higher but doesnt mean he should. Half of his ratings I agreed with and I definitely like anime more than he does
Vira's 2nd ult is one of the coolest things I've ever seen Arc do , the wind up to the axe swing at the end is so good it's unfortunate we're not going to see Max's reaction to Nier's full ultimate but that stuff happens sometimes Narmaya's is great too, I'm just so happy granblue got its second chance chance
YES! Years ago my inspiration to get a PC and even to get more into fighting games was seeing the supers in the first Granblue fighting game and Max's videos on it from back in the day!
just the usual reminder of "the points are made up and the score doesn't matter" because chat was throwing out 10s left and right for all their waifus lmao
I know Narmaya gets high ratings for obvious reasons and I have a bias because its granblue but how cold and slick as fuck Narmaya's is, I have to give it a 10.
Me personally, I'd have dbfz in my top 2-3 but gyatt does the rising cinematics looks so god like. If it's specific supers from each series here's my list (not in order) 1. Sephiroth's super from smash bros 2. JP's CA super 3. Seth's super from under night 4. UI goku's super dbfz
Poor Grimnir, getting such a low score lol. If only he knew what kind of character he was. For Nier though, unfortunately he didn't know that the animation changes based on the remaining number of Love's Redemption. Animation for her are different when you have 9+ remaining, 4-8 remaining and then the full animation at 3 or lower. Tried to send a dono after he finished hers but he read it when he was ending the stream unfortunately lol
But man , you don't understand Max, he doesn't give a score based of lore or the motives of the character, he gives the score for the cinemactic and the "punch" of the super. But... he has his bias. Because if the character is blonde or has something red, and his super is a Ragnarok, Asura's wrath or a Demon type super, he will love it. But that's why we love Max man, he is a super talented dood and funny as hell
Not only does it look great, but the game also has a GREAT roster day-one. I know, it's a typical Arc-Sys sequel, but I really do feel like there's someone for everyone at launch, and that's great.
@@AstralMuffin105 The steam page just upright has a free edition that'll let you play online, albeit with a much more limited roster. Imagine the other platforms have the same.
3:02 I think a good special edition of Rate the Super would be gathering a lot of 10/10s you’ve given out in the past, and rank them from 1/10, while reaffirming at the start that they’re 10/10s in their respective games. Also, I really want you to do Demon Slayer. That game’s supers are on par visually with this one.
demon slayer supers are next level. A friend of mine talked to one of the devs when they came over to talk about game dev. They literally said they had to make their visuals WORSE so it wouldn't overshadow the anime.
@@twistyseult As much as everyone says that CC2 games ruined anime fighters (tbh it's more on Spike Chunsoft for making the actual cheap knock offs like Jump Force and OPM). They always delivered in the fanservice department, whether it's visuals or story. There's a reason why Storm is so beloved in the arena fighter community.
Nier's super has a bit more to it if you do it when she's almost out of hearts (she consumes hearts to summon her puppet), though it would have only moved the needle on the valuation a little I think.
Minor thing you missed! Nier's super actually changes based on the number of stacks of her ability she has. If you do it when she's around 3 or less she is visibly going insane during the super, which is just a nice touch of flavor added to the animation
FINALLY! Ever since I found out about this game i went to see ur last rate the super for the last game but I dont think u ever covered the dlc character so i was waiting for this when you saw everyone awesome vid.
Fun fact, because I'm a Classical Japanese literature nerd, it's very appropriate that Narmaya says "Ame no Uzume no mai" and her blouse comes undone because in the Kojiki, the goddess called "Ame no Uzume" does a silly dance where her breasts fall out of her kimono and make all the other gods hoot, holler and laugh in an attempt to get the sun goddess to come out of a cave. Maybe I'll get around to retelling those myths on my channel, but for now I'll leave Kojiki explanations to TH-cam comments.
The Nier super has a little extra if you do it on Gran btw. Edit: actually the extra little bit might be if you do the parry version instead of the combo version, on anyone. >_>
funny thing he mentions Anre/Uno as a Tarutaru, as Granblue Fantasy (the mobile game the fighter is based on) actually had an offical FFXI collab some time ago when FFXI turned 20.
I’m surprised that nobody let him know about how some SSBAs have unique interactions with every playable character in the game (eg Ladiva, Cagliostro, etc.). He did check out different reactions with other games like Guilty Gear and it did boost the ratings for a bunch of supers there, so it could’ve been the case here
Funny Max would liken Anre to a Tarutaru. Apparently the team behind GBF are huge fans of Final Fantasy XI and they drew a lot of inspiration from Vana'diel.
This was probably the fairest and most generous I've seen Max with these, so I'm not sure why anyone would've expected any higher. Could've always rated lower for plenty of them.
Missed the special Vira vs Katalina yandere finish and also Nier's super gets crazier the lower heart thingies she has. Also agree that the game looks amazing!
For Nier, you need to not only be lower stacks, but also do it against the MC's either Gran or Djeeta. Her whole stick is he a yandere for them, so the voice acting and animations change slightly for them.
5:31 - I feel like Perci should be given 1 or 2 more points because you can hold down the input and juggle people with the initial vortex. It does make a difference in how cool it is IMO...The dramatic finish where everything is engulfed in the flames is badass too.
Damn, chat didn't tell him about Nier's alternate cutscene where the doll's stacks or whatever are low. She gets more freaked out and the puppet does a lot more slashes. Wouldn't change the score too much, but worth noting. Overall though, the supers in this game are great and are a big part of why I loved the original GBVS and now Rising. I'm a casual, give me big flashy moves and I'm happy.
Max: Don't grab his nuts
Lore accurate Belial: He he
Max: Don't grab his nuts.
Belial: Don't make terrible covers.
Max: Don’t grab his nuts!
Belial: Oh yeah, now that’s a good idea
Makes even more sense when u realise the super is also a command grab 😂
The thing about Grimnir is that he's a dork that likes to look cool, his powers are wind based, so Max probably didn't get what he was doing during his SSBA, the rose was just to add to the cool factor.
I only know him from his Appearance in Dragalia Lost but he was definitely a wind guy
I only know him from shadowverse so fuck grimnir 😂
I thought he was being a Poor man's Lee Chaolan.
I thought he was just trying to be wind master, but never completed his training with fujin…
hes actually the god of wind and hes funny af
Max seems to hate any character that's full of themselves, Cagli turning your ass into a statue Of Herself and adding you to her collection is great.
Yeah the anime troupes don’t mix with Max. He’s basically an ironic weeb. I get it but I think he was kinda harsh on the supers.
@@myuugi I mean yeah. Max has never really been secretive about his biases when it comes to games.

ffs nobody told Max that Nier needs 3 stacks for the extended animation
Max accidentally went overtime playing Elphet, because shes fun
Plus, trying to get the special win screen takes a bit
Was watching live when he did this. Chat told him several times.
15:14
“my character got turned into the moon”
“That’s rough, buddy”
There's a few variations here with some Supers, like Vira's SSBA against Katalina, and the rare chance of Grimnir fumbling his lines in his SSBA.
Vira's 2nd ult is one of the coolest things I've ever seen Arc do , the wind up to the axe swing at the end is so good it's unfortunate we're not going to see Max's reaction to Nier's full ultimate but that stuff happens sometimes
Narmaya's is great too, I'm just so happy granblue got its second chance chance
Max you missed one, the death chick who’s a puppets character super changes the lower her stacks are so at 1 stack of puppets action it’s crazier
Yeah Vira also has a custom win screen against Katalina
Take a drink every time Max is being generous.
I can't, I'd die
*Falls down the stairs*
He's not wrong tho, they'll look good
Take a drink every time he rates a super a 7
Arc System Works did a lot of work but dont forget about Cygames's visual guidance (camera placements, particle effect shapes etc) is top notch
YES! Years ago my inspiration to get a PC and even to get more into fighting games was seeing the supers in the first Granblue fighting game and Max's videos on it from back in the day!
15:45
I hope more people notice that the flair that says Finish is different for this man's super.
Love this game.
ArcSys floors me with their hand-drawn-looking 3D animation! I love it so much! From Xrd to FighterZ to Granblue and beyond!
I know. i’m a fighting fan but newbie to this game and guilty gear and the graphics are jaw dropping amazing
Now if they could just bless us with a new blazblue that be amazing 🛎️🛎️🛎️🛎️
I really hope he does a Rate the Super for Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3/Infinite World
They also did DNF Duel graphics
@@slickestgamer Fr 🙏
just the usual reminder of "the points are made up and the score doesn't matter" because chat was throwing out 10s left and right for all their waifus lmao
That audible cleaning of the blade puts Narmaya's up a point though.
I know Narmaya gets high ratings for obvious reasons and I have a bias because its granblue but how cold and slick as fuck Narmaya's is, I have to give it a 10.
To be fair Max was throwing out 10s for his husbandos.😂
The absolute nerve to rate Grimnir a FOUR smh
but all in all this was even more fun than last time!
11:24 That ain't Buster Wolf. That's Buster Wool.
I don't know if Max would do this, but I'd like to see a Rate The Super comparing games to each other, just to see how they stack up.
Maybe get all the ten ratings and rank them against each other
Amen to that
Me personally, I'd have dbfz in my top 2-3 but gyatt does the rising cinematics looks so god like. If it's specific supers from each series here's my list (not in order)
1. Sephiroth's super from smash bros
2. JP's CA super
3. Seth's super from under night
4. UI goku's super dbfz
If u do Nier's ssba while at 2 stacks or lower but not 0 you get an extra of her crying with a crazy scared face.
Ptsd from her family years at work most likely.
It's a shame chat didn't tell him, I'd say it's my second favorite in the game
@@twholder we all told him. but chat already one guyed him earlier so it was ignored. cant blame him.
3 stacks or lower
Max is being REALLY generous with these 6 pointers lol
11:14 "Unless you're an armpit fan" right before showcasing Anila (Watame's alter ego). Meme magic moment.
Anila did nothing wrong~
"Editor's note: Yes, it's cuz she is hot"
Polearm pose don't lie here!
zeta is a god send
She is gorgeous bruh
Soriz's ult is why I main him lmao. His Japanese VA also makes it sooooo fuckin' epic
💯
SOIYYAAAA
Manliest Man
Never realized that Anila was actually a wolf in sheep's clothing...
Vaseraga I think is at least a nine. The shot of him sliding with his hand damn near on the ground while spinning the scythe behind him goes so crazy
It was pretty sick ngl
Poor Grimnir, getting such a low score lol. If only he knew what kind of character he was.
For Nier though, unfortunately he didn't know that the animation changes based on the remaining number of Love's Redemption.

But that's why we love Max man, he is a super talented dood and funny as hell
Was also hoping to see the ratings for lvl 1 supers but since we get the rating for win screens here so still good
These are amongst the BEST ultra moves I’ve ever seen in any fighting games. There are incredible!
He didn't do them all either. A lot have alternates. It really is a gorgeous game
Not only does it look great, but the game also has a GREAT roster day-one. I know, it's a typical Arc-Sys sequel, but I really do feel like there's someone for everyone at launch, and that's great.
11:24 Bust a Wool?
Bro I can't wait to play this game!
Nier's super changes the lower the stock she has for her puppet, so at 1 she gets a bit more flair to it.
Gotta like how Max gives all the hot chicks low scores but the naked man gets a 10
Don't sleep on this game guys. It's free to play for anyone wanting to try.
Free where? Lol
Where is it free?
@@AstralMuffin105 There's f2p versions on both Steam and PSN.

Its a beautiful looking fighting game
Day one buy for me
Granblue died on release so that we can have roll back as the standard for future fighting games 🙌 this game deserves a comeback story
@@GreatRaijin facts!
You can even play it free now
They were stuck on delay but now they're back on the stage, granblue getting the comeback they deserve brings me so much joy

Must be below 3 to make me wet my pants.

“Yes, it’s cuz she’s hot” based Zeta enjoyer lmao
Vira's first one, when not against Katarina, is a 10/10 to me. The stupid crazy laugh adds so much to the super to me.
Think we could ever get an old revisit and do a “Rate The Super” for Pokkén Tournament?
Nice to see Max rating the SSBA and not just SBA like he did in base Versus. And the dlc catch up is good too.
The Nier super has a little extra if you do it on Gran btw.
Edit: actually the extra little bit might be if you do the parry version instead of the combo version, on anyone. >_>
Beelzebub saying "Chaos Legion"? Just bringing up old ps2 games for me with that
Every time I hear the start of the jingle for the supers, I feel like someone is going to go "YOU WA SHOCK"
I really appreciate that most of the Skybound Arts are based on the ougis of the characters on the gacha game.
Arcsys never fails to amaze me in terms of their art. This game is arguably the prettiest fighter they have made and I absolutely love the game
These super look really cool.
Part of me is still hoping Max rates the supers for Tatsunoko vs Capcom.
Siegfried has that anime protagonist feel to it.That junk is inspirational.
funny thing he mentions Anre/Uno as a Tarutaru, as Granblue Fantasy (the mobile game the fighter is based on) actually had an offical FFXI collab some time ago when FFXI turned 20.

Oh I was looking forward to this, glad we got it already! The supers in GB look amazing
Edit: NOOOOO HE DIDNT SEE NIER's LOW STOCK ONE
You know ehen max said "non-lorr implications" doing persona? We should bring that back for this
I like how Ladivah's super is so simple but it's still so damn cool with the timer and the health bar
Perfect for a Duelist like her
Behold, the first .5 score started here!
Funny Max would liken Anre to a Tarutaru. Apparently the team behind GBF are huge fans of Final Fantasy XI and they drew a lot of inspiration from Vana'diel.
Imagine if Max rate the ultimate from Naruto Storm Connection. It would be crazy long
It'd be baller at tho
Praying for rate the super for Tatsunoko vs Capcom
Same here but also Street Fighter X Tekken.
This was probably the fairest and most generous I've seen Max with these, so I'm not sure why anyone would've expected any higher. Could've always rated lower for plenty of them.
Side note this game is.. beautiful
Max saying "you're dead" at katalina super gave me complicated feeling, especially after what happened in the mobage ver
“Unless you’re an armpit fan.” *next character is Watame*
It just writes itself
After watching these supers, I wish for a game that is like Granblue but with the characters from Ronin Warriors.
Of course I knew that Max would give Ladiva and Soriz the 10s.
ladivas ssba got more bass on each count which is a minor change but it has huge impact
will max rate the dlc character supers as they drop or as a whole collection?
Still holding out for a rate the finisher for Marvel Nemesis Rise of the Imperfects and Playstation all-starts. 😅
Missed the special Vira vs Katalina yandere finish and also Nier's super gets crazier the lower heart thingies she has. Also agree that the game looks amazing!
Nier had an special super interaction if done with less stacks. I thought someone on chat would point that out.
*Disclaimer: No masterpieces were actually ruined in the making of this video.
Fairly certain that the super at 17:19 had a dot hack reference in there
Missed the Vira Super finish with Katalina
Very gracious with that ten for Ladiva
17:01 That reaction is so funny LMAOOOO
After seeing a certain super: King dragon sends his regards :)
They really liked the camera angle of the character blowing someone up while standing in the bottom left corner of the screen, huh?
For Nier, you need to not only be lower stacks, but also do it against the MC's either Gran or Djeeta. Her whole stick is he a yandere for them, so the voice acting and animations change slightly for them.
i cant wait for this rpg
That 7 to Zeta is a blasphemy. I demand a review.
eh, her water version in mobile game is cooler than this. If they add that version as costume, i want her to use that version's super
everyone is hot in the game meanwhile mortal kombat characters
I mean there ARE good looking MK characters, but then there's also dudes like Baraka.
5:31 - I feel like Perci should be given 1 or 2 more points because you can hold down the input and juggle people with the initial vortex. It does make a difference in how cool it is IMO...The dramatic finish where everything is engulfed in the flames is badass too.
Straight up Arcsys’s best work, just look at it 😻
I wonder if Max is ever going to play grandblue fantasy relink?
I cannot wait to get the game tomorrow also random but this is my first time hearing the game in English lol.
Damn, chat didn't tell him about Nier's alternate cutscene where the doll's stacks or whatever are low. She gets more freaked out and the puppet does a lot more slashes.

Never played or seen any gameplay of this one before and I gotta say that all those supers are really pretty

Did someone else notice the similarities between Soris' Super and Pauls Rage Art in Tekken 8?
Max didn’t even do Nier’s full super. She gets an extra scene when she’s low on cards.
