@@Sepia1989 The step dodges are honestly the thing I find the coolest about this whole thing. He literally step dodges through the divine dragons last downward swing, the corrupted monks upward spinning swing which normally has an AOE blast type effect, and even stepped through Isshins spear sweep combat art and went directly into an umbrella deflect on the sword part of the CA. Like fuck, The deflects are cool and all but do you ever just feel like styling on a god so hard you step INTO their sword
thats what i like about this game. rather than full on builds like in dark souls it lets you express yourself through mastery, by creating your own style of taking bosses down
Something that went underappreciated in this game is the camera work during the executions, its always incredibly cinematic and compliments well with the awesome choreography and silky smooth animations.

Definitely, but Ghost of Tsushima is the 2nd on the list imho. Nioh 1-2 they are not even compare to Sekiro as realistic melee weapon sound. Odachi it sounds like a bamboo stick while parrying or clashing to another weapon lol.
''I don't fear a man who practices 10 000 different sword strokes once. I do fear a man that can use floating passage and actually make it work'' -Isshin probably
No joke, I feel like floating passage is great. Bosses will take small bits of vitality damage from it that add up really quickly, then their posture doesn't recover because their vitality is too low and you can finish them off with posture damage, especially with double ichimonji. Spiral cloud passage is better, but not when you need to conserve spirit emblems for a tricky phase of a boss fight.
I use the shit out of it and works great. It's really good for getting posture damage or getting a quick hit in before needing to block or parry. Most underrated skill in the game. Mainly because people don't know how to use it.
It and Spiral cloud passage are really good for enemies who can block, they fit a combo worth of 5 normal hits otherwise we can usually do only 2-3 hits before getting deflect.
@@saharudin3159 Isekai protagonists don't tend to have this much style, Though all I've seen are youtube compilation clips so maybe I'm wrong. This is more like the fight the protagonists mentor gets into at some point during the show after seasons of just being told they're powerful
I'm more impressed with the fact he decides to step dodge through several of these attacks, and actually fucking deflects the divine dragon several times This man literally looked at the divine dragon slamming a holy relic down into his head and went "Yeah but what if I just stepped forward at the exact moment it hits me?"
As a person who has never played sekiro, I feel 100% confident in myself after having watched this video, that I too, can complete the game very easily.
I am sure u can be consistent enought to finish but saying easily is hilarious bro I smell newbie delusion Boy it's gonna hit u hard and snap u into reality I can see trying so many times like Dr. Strange and Dormammu
@@alexmccolgan3723 Yea, I was 1 hit away from beating him (couldn't even see the red bar no more, literally 1 hp) and instead of jumping he just rushed me, happened twice. I gave up on it for now and started dark souls 2.
No matter how much I watch it, I still can't belive he chooses to pretty much only use thrust attacks against owl as much as possible, simply to flex his complete mastery of the combat. The one boss that can mikiri counter your thrust attacks to deal often one-shot levels of damage, and Ongbal goes out of his way to use thrust attacks whereever he can sneak them in. Absolute madlad...
I'd say this is the least impressive thing he did in that video. I learned pretty quickly the times you could thrust attack him, in fact I'd say you could even guess it from his recovery after his attacks without much trial and error.
@@fiso64 it’s just the extra layer of putting in the effort instead of normally attacking him, just because he can. Not only must he avoid every attack and learn his moves perfectly but if he mistimes even a single attack he will be instantly countered and killed as punishment
Parry / guard and counter system and even boss revenge counter attack had used in Kingdom hearts 2 final mix long time ago. Sekiro make it better in every aspect.
I don’t usually comment on TH-cam videos. Never, actually. I looked for a video like this because I desperately wanted to get good enough to appreciate the true work of art this underrated game is. What I found was possibly the most gangster shit I’ve ever seen. Pure poetry to watch. You can see the timing of the game’s song and dance perfectly and now I see what it’s really about. It’s one thing to beat a boss. It another thing to beat a boss without taking damage. It’s a completely different ball park to ooze pure steeze as you carve through 96 deflections with an inch long health bar. They styled the entire way. Truly unbelievable.
@@TheMrCHELL that much is true, given that Sekiro is quite ruthless & shows no mercy to his opponents. Shinobi such as him would actually know honour, but I supposed Genichiro was right when he said “A shinobi would know the difference between honour & victory.”
@@LaVitaNouva AND WHEN YOU HAVE NO HESITATION SLAUGTARING A LADY WHO SAVED YOUR LIFE AND A 90 YEAR OLD MAN WHO WAS SUFFERING FROM SERIOUS DECIESES ABD CONSIDER YOU YOUR SON THEN YOU BECOME A SHURA
For those who played Sekiro, know how difficult to deflect every strike. As someone who has a copy of this game and played it for a while now. I have learned the movements of the bosses, and can deflect their attacks. But watching this master playing this game and parrying every strike to perfection without never breaking his posture is amazing. Kudos.
This is the highest of quality Sekiro gameplay on TH-cam! Not just beating the bosses perfectly but also putting on a show, this is true mastery of the game!
Would look far better if there was more exchange during fights, that is, not just Sekiro spamming the most powerful skills repeatedly. Then again, that wouldn't exactly be "no hesitation".
@@ashikjaman1940 Player: walks into Gwyn's room Gwyn: full screen jump attack Player: accidentally hits R2 and parries the attack And that's how I beat DS1. And how I deal with Marty Logarius every Bloodborn run.
I retract all my previous statements about this game. Back 4 years ago I got stuck on GENICHIRO for MONTHS. Granted I was using opiates and my reaction time was GARBAGE, but until then since the mid 90s as a kid, I HAD NEVER LET A GAME BEAT ME. Until Sekiro. After quitting both Sekiro and later drugs, clean 2 years this coming April, I have beaten several difficult games like Hollow Knight, Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3 and have PLATINUMED Elden Ring with all endings so Ng+6. So I thought "Hey let's try Sekiro...again...", and this time some how, some way it clicked. Genichiro 3rd try, mikiri counters, perfect reflects on his floating passage while answering with my own, and I did his last phase first try, lightning counter after lightning counter, nailed him, NO HESITATION. I just put it down for a bit cuz my hands have been hurting, I'm old. I'm at the ancient Dragons tree and blew through bosses after Genichiro. The only ones to give me trouble were the Monkey and the true Monk. Thank Buddha for the Mortal Blade. This game is much more than a glorified rythm game.Thematically beautiful, striking environments. In depth story and characters. It's all I wanted in a sword fighting ninja game. I just didn't know it. Thankyou FROMSOFT.
@@caroline4945 np this part of the comment is here for the sake of clarity this guide contains no spoilers sekiro has 3 resurrections in one life, but you get the third after getting to a certain point in the game you can resurrect as many times as you want, but only three before you rest at a sculptor's idol or die if you use a resurrection, there will be a black line through the other(s). to be able to use the second one, you have to kill an enemy and have then drop resurrective power that power is a pink line that travels to sekiro the second resurrection also has to be full. to fill up a resurrection, you need to get more of that resurrective power until the circle is full. the same goes for the third one the first one is always full you can also use a specific item to fill a resurrection circle *tl;dr: you can resurrect infinitely, only a total of 3 in one life, but you have to do stuff to use more than one*
I was questioning myself wether I should play this game or Ghost of Tsushima, and this video helped to make up my mind. In an ocean of open-world more-of-the-same games, Sekiro offers something different, unique. It helps that I also never played a Soul game before.
@@FkTheUFC oh ell no, this is the most L take ever. Sekiro is mostly about combat (not discounting the story here for sekiro), Ghost of tsushima actually has one of the best story arcs ever, and honestly it trumps in the visuals too, as for the combat, its only second to sekiro.
as a huge fan of sekiro, im amazed and so happy that after 3 long years. sekiro is still very much relevant and talked about. cant deny the re-playability.
this is not even a fight, it''s massacre. "Attack Power 99" that's how he's boss fight this quick, if you playing sekiro like endless rounds, you can do this too...
its called new game+ after you finish you can go all the way to the start but with your endgame save, so that you can kick every boss's ass just for fun and make them pay for all the suffering you had
@@HunterPlayStream since you dont know what the fuck you are talking about let me help you. This is new game plus, he has abilities on the first boss that is impossible to have unless its new game plus . Is health is at base level the whole time and he perfectly parried everything. On ng+ with that health if he got hit once he would die.This is not "easier" this is the best you can be at this game. Now stfu.
This is the way of true Shinobi! No extra moves, every move calculated. Loved it. Sekiro is by far one of my top 5 games of all time and thank you for making me relive all those great memories with this video. Also the last stand off with Ishin Ashina is the best among all of them imho. You feel everything that is between them, all the emotions, adrenaline, rage, calm. Well done to developers and game director for making such a master craft. “Sekiro…Come!” ❤
@@dripkingwavelord987 NO BUT SCULPTOR DID NOT TEACH SEKIRO HOW TO FIGHT WHILE OWL TRAINED HIM TI KILL WITHOUT EMOTIONS AND ISSHIN REMOVED HIS HESITATION
@@sanjeevsharma4231 Wolf is at his weakest when the game begins, he has lost the will to fight, his sense of combat is all but gone. It is true that Owl taught him most of what he knows and Isshin taught him to not hesitate, but Sekijo, the Sculptor, taught him how to use the prosthetic hand in hand with Kusabimaru, he gives Wolf the Shinobi and Prosthetic esoteric texts, also he stands as one of Wolfs absolutely hardest trials when he becomes the Hatred. Sekiro has three mentors, three fathers if you wish, and he kills all of them.
@@dripkingwavelord987 YOU ARE RIGHT BOY I SEE MANY PEOPLE ARE RAGING KEYBOARD WARRIORS BUT WHAT YOU WRITE WAS CORRECT AND WAS SLIGHTLY BEAUTIFUL AND YES HOW I FORGOT ABOUT DEMON OF HATRED AND YES DENON OF HATRED OWL FATHER AND ISSHIN ARE THE TOUGHEST BOSSES IN SEKIRO THANKS SHALLOW WAVELORD
Out of all gameplays this one is actually fun to watch he doesn't just sit there waiting for parrys he makes them happen. He actually plays the game, this is quality gameplay.
That’s how you should play the game regardless. The game actually tells you to be both aggressive and defensive. It irks me seeing people wait for attacks.
This is what makes Sekiro so different than other souls game, hell, even Elden Ring. The satisfaction you get after slapping the shit out of the bosses who once clapped your ass so many time. Not only you feel satisfied but you still like a badass with those fluid movesets. Still the strongest entry FromSoft has ever made.
Nah no armor variety. No FUGS big ass swords. Combat is good though! Just didn’t lure me along like Elden souls with cool environments. Also I suck at it honestly. I soloed bloodborne and every souls game so maybe this game just bent me over personally. Need to replay on the ps5. Sometimes frame rate makes the difference. This game is made to ruin souls players with their years of developed muscle memory.
I am amazed how he managed to use perfectly combat arts that many consider completely useless. It makes me happy to see it is possible to pull off some sick plays with that
most ppl that say a certain thing is useless havent gotten deep enough into the combat to judge it correctly. the axe is one of the best weapons in the game because the jump attack is so freakin fast and u can pair it with other combat arts right after. thats just one way u can completely destroy an enemys posture system.
Had to leave a comment. I just beat the game yesterday for the first time by the skin of my teeth and I wanted to see what high level play looks like. This was just absolutely enthralling from start to finish.
Bro I was convinced Hirata estate was necessary for the progression of the game so I went there instead of fighting the blazing bull and spent weeks getting good at the game because I thought I sucked at it only to realize I hadn't given any gourd seeds or made any prayer necklaces AFTER I beat her and realized I DIDNT EVEN NEED TO FIGHT HER YET
Watching this video, as an Ashina style player reminds me of that Tengu's statement. "There are no hard, or fast rules, you just win your battles". Literally this man lives that line. Most amazing video I have ever seen.
@@danielrobles6503 The key to the ogre is to fight against him like a Dark Souls boss it's really dumb but then he becomes really easy unless his glitchy ass grab attack still somehow gets which happens too.
Daniel Robles install cheat engine. And download cheat tables. Also a tip to kill the ogre is first kill all other guys around him. Then run far away and when his healthbar disappears run back and do a stealth deathblow.
Had I not play Dark Souls I would have been in the same boat about uninstalling but I did that a lot at the toriel guide on Dark Souls so I've gotten used to timing and patience.im halfway through my sec time playing this 🎮.
before watching this, i had played sekiro, but i had gotten stuck on guardian ape. watching this video made me realize just how amazing the combat in this game was, and got me back into it. what a fuckin sick game, dude.
All I know is last night I beat lady butterfly and I howled bro, after I beat her I realized that she taught me how to actually play the game, how to parry correctly, how to be consistent, how to look out for deadly moves and jump, and how to keep calm even when I’m out of heals. I beat her with no heals left and half health, amazing game.
the combat in this game is pretty unparalleled, not many games come close to it's fluidity and even none of the souls games have combat as forcefully engaging as this game. Though honestly I feel like this game doesn't have nearly enough bosses, and when you're like me, you play the game so much that you need mods to make the game harder
@@Solbashio Dark Souls combat is pretty basic. Elden Ring improves on it with features like Guard Counter, weapon counter and powerstancing but IMO it still doesn’t come close to Sekiro. Sekiro’s combat is so intense and fluid, while a lot of the time in DS/ER I feel as if I’m just waiting for my turn to attack. It’s weird because in all these games we’re the ones initiating the fights all the time yet Sekiro is the only time we’re on the offensive rather than starting a fight to play defensively
@@noamias4897 Because Sekiro is the game that most fluidly switches between offense and defense thanks to how the posture and parry systems work. There's no long stagger windows, no need to back off and wait for an enemy to finish swinging. Almost every attack in this game can be parried or dodged, and then you can immediately launch your counterattack. This is, imo, the best combat in the game and I genuinely hope we get a sequel.
So yes there is a lot of skill here but honestly it looks like quite a lot of mechanical gameplay. It's more than just skill. It's game knowledge. One could say it is optimised gameplay. You don't necessarily need a whole lot of skill to do this compared to fighting a boss in a less optimised way. Not saying this is worse than fighting less optimised, I honeslty find this sort of gameplay more impressive, at least the first time I see it and I'd probably enjoy doing it for a playthrough. However you could learn these chains and timings and then never struggle with any of these bosses but the moment something new comes out you have very limited ways of dealing with that if all you know is optimised gameplay.
@@YachiruALEPH I didn't ever say I dislike the fact that you can optimise your gameplay. Only that you can't optimise unless you already know the mechanics. For example, the first dark souls game I played was DSPTDE and back then I wasn't that good at those sort of games, not even talking souls like. Just generally the type of combat it had. The closest to it I had played before was Spyro. Until then I had played a lot of strategy games and a few Sengoku Basara type games. Dark Souls is vastly different. I had no skill to apply in the game type and no information on which to optimiss my gameplay. I kinda quit because I've always been one to get 100% (or at least close to that) on my games and so I went on to games I could actually progress in. Fast forward a couple of years and I got a ps4, DS3 and BB. I still wasn't good at Souls-like because I had no experience in that sort of game, however I had played games more similar to them compared to before so I could actually make some progress. Especially after playing BB since it taught me that shields aren't useful. I could manage in both but still wasn't great. I later made a few friends who all had played DS3 for quite some time. Now I had information but not a lot of skill, this information allowed me to improve, slowly but surely. At this time I could have optimised how I play but then would I have improved? Not really, yes I would have gotten better at fighting any one boss but when the next comes around I haven't improved much in handling that. While yes all these games have patterns to them, optimised gameplay does not mean "There is my attack window" it means "the boss does that so I'll do this exact combo without deviation followed by this ability and then I back off". Optimised gameplay is in theory perfect. It is the absolute best way to defeat a boss or achieve an objective and until something in the game changes that won't change. Again, this doesn't detract from what was done here, in my opinion it adds to it as optimised gameplay takes a lot to pull off on a scale such as this. It's just not exclusively skill based gameplay.
it’s a real shame they didn’t incorporate more of sekiro’s mechanics in though I could see why they didn’t with how varied the gameplay can be due to its nature of being an rpg. At the very least do away with the rolling and give us a good dodge wtf, if you’re gonna give us blood borne/sekiro tier bosses we need the tools and means to counter them properly
@@umitatsuya2492 Sure is. NG+, base vitality/posture, no charm, demon bell. Though i think NG with base all+demon bel+no charm is much more challenging than this.
Personally, I’m most impressed by the fight against Great Shinobi Owl. It takes a lot of guts to straight up take the Anti-Heal-Orbs without a care and use thrusting attacks against the only opponent that can Mikiri-Counter them.
The anti-heal orbs mean absolutely nothing when you have base vitality and any attack whatsoever that you take from Owl will oneshot you. There is no healing.

You saw a boss?
No matter how much I watch it, I still can't belive he chooses to pretty much only use thrust attacks against owl as much as possible, simply to flex his complete mastery of the combat. The one boss that can mikiri counter your thrust attacks to deal often one-shot levels of damage, and Ongbal goes out of his way to use thrust attacks whereever he can sneak them in. Absolute madlad...
The ultimate flex is him parrying Shadow Rush instead of Mikiri Countering it. Mistime it and Owl one-shots you.
@@liampowell5014 yeah its crazy man but I guess on NG+7 Charmless and yasharikus sugar buff you pretty much get one shot killed by every boss attack
Tbh, thrusting vs any boss except Owl is better since u don't over-do attacking and get punished for it lol
I'd say this is the least impressive thing he did in that video. I learned pretty quickly the times you could thrust attack him, in fact I'd say you could even guess it from his recovery after his attacks without much trial and error.
@@fiso64 it’s just the extra layer of putting in the effort instead of normally attacking him, just because he can. Not only must he avoid every attack and learn his moves perfectly but if he mistimes even a single attack he will be instantly countered and killed as punishment
It's honestly criminal that this kind of combat hasnt been used in any other game.
Probably because the dark souls fanboys got rekt and refused to git gud.

For those who played Sekiro, know how difficult to deflect every strike. As someone who has a copy of this game and played it for a while now. I have learned the movements of the bosses, and can deflect their attacks. But watching this master playing this game and parrying every strike to perfection without never breaking his posture is amazing. Kudos.
This is the highest of quality Sekiro gameplay on TH-cam! Not just beating the bosses perfectly but also putting on a show, this is true mastery of the game!
The way of the true shinobi has arrived.

Would look far better if there was more exchange during fights, that is, not just Sekiro spamming the most powerful skills repeatedly. Then again, that wouldn't exactly be "no hesitation".

I retract all my previous statements about this game. Back 4 years ago I got stuck on GENICHIRO for MONTHS. Granted I was using opiates and my reaction time was GARBAGE, but until then since the mid 90s as a kid, I HAD NEVER LET A GAME BEAT ME. Until Sekiro. After quitting both Sekiro and later drugs, clean 2 years this coming April, I have beaten several difficult games like Hollow Knight, Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3 and have PLATINUMED Elden Ring with all endings so Ng+6. So I thought "Hey let's try Sekiro...again...", and this time some how, some way it clicked. Genichiro 3rd try, mikiri counters, perfect reflects on his floating passage while answering with my own, and I did his last phase first try, lightning counter after lightning counter, nailed him, NO HESITATION. I just put it down for a bit cuz my hands have been hurting, I'm old. I'm at the ancient Dragons tree and blew through bosses after Genichiro. The only ones to give me trouble were the Monkey and the true Monk. Thank Buddha for the Mortal Blade.
This game is much more than a glorified rythm game.Thematically beautiful, striking environments. In depth story and characters. It's all I wanted in a sword fighting ninja game. I just didn't know it.

this part of the comment is here for the sake of clarity
this guide contains no spoilers
sekiro has 3 resurrections in one life, but you get the third after getting to a certain point in the game
you can resurrect as many times as you want, but only three before you rest at a sculptor's idol or die
if you use a resurrection, there will be a black line through the other(s). to be able to use the second one, you have to kill an enemy and have then drop resurrective power
that power is a pink line that travels to sekiro
the second resurrection also has to be full. to fill up a resurrection, you need to get more of that resurrective power until the circle is full. the same goes for the third one
the first one is always full
you can also use a specific item to fill a resurrection circle
*tl;dr: you can resurrect infinitely, only a total of 3 in one life, but you have to do stuff to use more than one*

most ppl that say a certain thing is useless havent gotten deep enough into the combat to judge it correctly. the axe is one of the best weapons in the game because the jump attack is so freakin fast and u can pair it with other combat arts right after. thats just one way u can completely destroy an enemys posture system.

Though honestly I feel like this game doesn't have nearly enough bosses, and when you're like me, you play the game so much that you need mods to make the game harder
@@Solbashio Dark Souls combat is pretty basic. Elden Ring improves on it with features like Guard Counter, weapon counter and powerstancing but IMO it still doesn’t come close to Sekiro. Sekiro’s combat is so intense and fluid, while a lot of the time in DS/ER I feel as if I’m just waiting for my turn to attack. It’s weird because in all these games we’re the ones initiating the fights all the time yet Sekiro is the only time we’re on the offensive rather than starting a fight to play defensively
@@noamias4897 Because Sekiro is the game that most fluidly switches between offense and defense thanks to how the posture and parry systems work. There's no long stagger windows, no need to back off and wait for an enemy to finish swinging. Almost every attack in this game can be parried or dodged, and then you can immediately launch your counterattack. This is, imo, the best combat in the game and I genuinely hope we get a sequel.

This game has the best combat ina any game no doubt of that. This guy's skill is over the top. Wow!
now just realize how many times he had to die to get to this level of skill
So yes there is a lot of skill here but honestly it looks like quite a lot of mechanical gameplay. It's more than just skill. It's game knowledge. One could say it is optimised gameplay. You don't necessarily need a whole lot of skill to do this compared to fighting a boss in a less optimised way. Not saying this is worse than fighting less optimised, I honeslty find this sort of gameplay more impressive, at least the first time I see it and I'd probably enjoy doing it for a playthrough. However you could learn these chains and timings and then never struggle with any of these bosses but the moment something new comes out you have very limited ways of dealing with that if all you know is optimised gameplay.
@@YachiruALEPH I didn't ever say I dislike the fact that you can optimise your gameplay. Only that you can't optimise unless you already know the mechanics. For example, the first dark souls game I played was DSPTDE and back then I wasn't that good at those sort of games, not even talking souls like. Just generally the type of combat it had. The closest to it I had played before was Spyro. Until then I had played a lot of strategy games and a few Sengoku Basara type games. Dark Souls is vastly different. I had no skill to apply in the game type and no information on which to optimiss my gameplay. I kinda quit because I've always been one to get 100% (or at least close to that) on my games and so I went on to games I could actually progress in. Fast forward a couple of years and I got a ps4, DS3 and BB. I still wasn't good at Souls-like because I had no experience in that sort of game, however I had played games more similar to them compared to before so I could actually make some progress. Especially after playing BB since it taught me that shields aren't useful. I could manage in both but still wasn't great. I later made a few friends who all had played DS3 for quite some time. Now I had information but not a lot of skill, this information allowed me to improve, slowly but surely. At this time I could have optimised how I play but then would I have improved? Not really, yes I would have gotten better at fighting any one boss but when the next comes around I haven't improved much in handling that.
While yes all these games have patterns to them, optimised gameplay does not mean "There is my attack window" it means "the boss does that so I'll do this exact combo without deviation followed by this ability and then I back off". Optimised gameplay is in theory perfect. It is the absolute best way to defeat a boss or achieve an objective and until something in the game changes that won't change. Again, this doesn't detract from what was done here, in my opinion it adds to it as optimised gameplay takes a lot to pull off on a scale such as this. It's just not exclusively skill based gameplay.

The anti-heal orbs mean absolutely nothing when you have base vitality and any attack whatsoever that you take from Owl will oneshot you. There is no healing.
Its cause the long animation/recovery makes it safer
It’s really funny how he does the thrust attacks just to flex lol
I like how Owl throws and antiheal bomb.
"Old man, I'm not gonna get hit"
I love how you're using different prosthetics and techniques for each boss, it's really cool.
Nicelly done, as always.
