Do you take requests?
If so than could you cover yellow, the newest creation from muno
*Yes please do cover Yellow...*
hey just so you know the runes for this sonic are really cool
When are you going to do Knuckles?
I want anton
11:19 fun fact: when you use the chaos emeralds buddy on this sonic, he will have an animation that transitions him into his super form (which is the intro animation that you saw but in the air), and if you were wearing the super form alts already, the emeralds will put him in his hyper form
hecc yeah recognition for hyper sonic
There's actually a rune that turns the boost gauge into a ring gauge where once it's full you become Super Sonic without it being cosmetic. Although you lose access to the Super Sonic skins.
cool i didnt know that (and i am not being sarcastic i really dont knowed that thx)
@@quimegamer9530 Your welcome.
That's pretty awesome!
and when you have 50 rings either default special or taunt to go super
Someone made separate mod for the new sonic where you can get it easily using the chaos emerald buddies
I think the one after the spark reference was yet another refrence to another series based on sonic the hedgehog called freedom planet, which started life as a mod funnily enough. Haven't played it, but Im pretty sure i recognize the color scheme of the main character.
Yep that’s lilac
Funnily enough there's also a Lilac and a Spark in Rivals so they can all fight each other!
@@Aperson-62 And Lilac has a Sonic alt, which is pretty funny.
And if u didn't know "It's Him" is a reference to the SAGE 2019 Demo of Pizza Tower who has Snick The Porcupine, which is basically Pizza Tower Sonic, lol.
@@toonlinkthelegendaryheroof901 I wonder who added that...
there is a "hidden" freature, if activate the boost with the "fake chaos rage" costume, it will transform into dark super sonic!!
This Sonic was soo smooth to play with. Everything just felt right, like if he were to be reworked in Official Smash he HAS to be flashy and dynamic as this
For alts, I can definitely pick out quite a few references. There's the obvious ones, like #1 being an Eggman alt, #2, #3, and #4 being references to Tails, Knuckles, and Amy respectively, #5 being a really neat Chaos reference, as he mentioned in the video, #6 and #7 being references to Shadow and Silver, and #8 being a reference to Blaze. After that, it gets a little more obscure, but I'll do my best to get all of them. #9 feels really vague tbh, I'm mostly getting vibes of the waterfall glitch from Sonic 2 with the green and black, and blue eyes. #10 is a reference to Mario, and the name is a reference to the old Console War rivalry that had, which is a neat reference. #11 is another reference he pointed out in the video, this one being a Spark the Electric Jester callback. It's a fangame that takes a lot of notes from Sonic, just like the reference to the next alt. #12 seems to be a reference to Lilac from Freedom Planet, again, a little indie game that took some inspiration from Sonic's high speed platforming. #13 is the first alt I really can't suggest anything for. I'd say maybe the Werehog from Unleashed, but the eyes are wrong. #14 seems to be a reference to the GameBoy color scheme, though it does feel a bit awkward for Sonic to have one when the GameGear was out at the same time competing against it. #15 is one of my favorites, being a reference to the Fake Metal secret from Sonic Heroes for multiplayer. Though it does have a mouth, so that's odd, considering both the Heroes and Sonic Speed Simulator versions don't. #16 might just be a Christmas colored version of Sonic, with the snow white quills and red and green gloves and shoes, while the name is of course a reference to Ice Cap Zone originating in Sonic 3. #17 and #18 are some more I don’t really have anything for. But #19 is definitely a reference to the Flash, who people still have debates over who's faster today. #20 makes me think to the very beginning "stage" of Dark Sonic from the Sonic X anime, though we know nothing about it, so I'm not 100% sure. The name definitely seems to encourage my theory though. Um, #21 is a bit confusing, though my best thought would be Snick from Pizza Tower, a parody to Sonic in that game. My second guess? Coldsteel. For the last five, they mostly feel like extremely niche references, so I'm not gonna get them.
I also like how (almost) all of his aerials are all references to different moves, with F-Air being his Forward Air trick from Sonic Advance 2 and 3 when he's paired up with Tails, D-Air being his Air attack from Sonic Battle, B-Air just being his Smash B-Air since Brawl, and N-Air being the Insta-Shield, though specifically the one from Sonic Advance 3 when you pair Sonic up with Knuckles. Up Air doesn't really have a specific reference. Maybe a part of his jab combo from Frontiers, other than that, it's just Sonic using his legs to attack as always.
This is a really cool mod, and I love seeing all the little references sprinkled throughout Sonic’s moveset and alts. You can tell that there's been a lot of care put into this, and as a Sonic fan, I appreciate that.
Edit: I'd like to thank the comments below for the extra help. #9 is definitely Scourge, I honestly just forgot about him, but the name for the alt helps the reference make more sense. @omegusblue5623 helped out a lot with the other references, which I thank them for that, since I don't normally play RoA. Same with @ThamyRose19 with alt 16 and how it's a seasonal skin. That'd make the alt list look like this:
Alt 0: Just Sonic
Alt 1: Eggman
Alt 2: Tails
Alt 3: Knuckles
Alt 4: Amy
Alt 5: Chaos
Alt 6: Shadow
Alt 7: Silver
Alt 8: Blaze
Alt 9: Scourge
Alt 10: Mario
Alt 11: Spark the Electric Jester
Alt 12: Lilac (Freedom Planet)
Alt 13: Abyss
Alt 14: Early Access
Alt 15: Fake Metal
Alt 16: Seasonal
Alt 17: Infamous
Alt 18: Gold skin
Alt 19: The Flash
Alt 20: Dark Sonic (Sonic X)
Alt 21: Snick (Pizza Tower)
Alt 22-27: Just based on a handful of characters from RoA.
Again, thanks to all the comments for a big helping hand.
16 is all about seasons. Winter = Ice Cap, Spring = Forgot, Summer = Forgot & Automn = Lord X.
The green and black one is a reference to scourge, an evil sonic, from the archie comics
One I hoped you'd get is #9, which is Scourge from the archie comics. An evil version of Sonic who aims that one bad day means he'll end up like Scourge
I think 21 is supposed to be purple guy from fnaf
#13 looks to be based on the Abyss skins that the main characters of Rivals of Aether already have, while #14 is based on the Early Access skins. #17 is based on the Infamous skin set, and #18 on the Gold skins .#21 seems to be based on Snick from Pizza Tower, given the meme for it. #22-26 seem to be based on various characters from RoA, seeing as Maypul's title is the Sylvan Watcher (costume name for 22) and Driving Thunder looks like it may be based on Absa?
A small easter egg you might have missed, but when you fought Eggman he actually had a voice line acknowledging that he was fighting Sonic (17:29)
the side B is from heroes, it's the rocket accel, you hold the b button and charge a little dash, but if you just press it, it does the kick
The ITS HIM made me happy
I didn’t expect a snick the porcupine from pizza tower reference
I think eggman made a device that breaks fourth walls
glad you liked playing as him! the youtube algorithm jumpscared me with this video so i gave it a watch
it was a nice watch
Can you add the spin charge for down special on the ground please
Me: seeing eggman in the match
Also me exept this time in my mind: "3 YEARS, I'VE BEEN IN HERE FOR 3 YEARS!!!"
Sonic being one of my favorite characters of all time and seeing him this good makes me smile, also check the alts for super sonic next vid
The side-by is “Rocket Accel” from Sonic Heroes. Tapping the button would have you get kicked forward and slide, while holding it would have your teammates kick you forward in a spin dash with much greater speed than the slide kick.
as an eggman main i cannot wait for you to cover him
I love the details of this Sonic, it’s really amazing. The ranking system really surprised me the first time I tried it out.
i expected an Animation Vs. Rivals of Aether showcase.
I can't believe the "big drip" Chaos Sonic costume I did sooo long ago got referenced here! This is pretty nice!
Each super form also has an alt costume, but the darker sonic skin does go dark when he reaches boos mode, there is also a reference to lord x, the exe character
I think lord x was removed sadly, i can’t find him in alts anymore
@@timotheravetier9442 hi there , the lord X alt is actually a seasonal alt, in the video it would have been alt 16
that alt is on rotation and changes once every 3 months
hope that clears things up!
@@Bar-Kun it definitely does, that explains a lot, i wish all the seasonals were Perm tho.
Oh
Well thanks for the info
we need you to look at Yellow (it is a stickman named yellow) it's a great character
You should do the Alan Becker stickman there is also a boss
Hey I found out a couple days ago that there was a Animation vs Minecraft coming either in development or already out now because I saw a video testing yellow I also think you're doing animator vs animation cuz I think I saw the chosen one in that animation test plus a new map taking place in King oranges castle in the nether with a King orange boss fight p.s i also am a big fan of Sonic the Hedgehog so I'm glad you're doing this
6:05 snick.
If you get the Chaos Emeralds (Buddy) from the workshop Sonic can transform. Super Sonic for Base Sonic. Hyper for his Super Form, The “False Chaos and Rage” costume will turn into Dark Super Form. You should definitely check it out. If you get the final smash buddy he will also use a entirely new final smash skill. These little secrets are definitely the coolest, i reccomend you experience it yourself
did ya know this sonic has a final smash!?
A costume is actually a sonic.exe reference and it has a different win screen and start game
"It's Him" was a reference to Pizza Tower. Specifically the SAGE 2019 demo. It had a parody of sonic, named Snick the porcupine, and he was purple.
What i love about this character is that it takes a lot of inspiration from sonic battle!
Yellow stickman just dropped
6:05 for people who have not played the sage demo for pizza tower this character is based of snick the porcupine a parody of sonic
Babe wake up new linklight too video is up!
Also Here are all the specials are So...
Netrual: S Homing Attack
Side S: Rocket Acel (or however it's called.)
Up S: Rainbow ring and lastly
Down S: Bounce Bracelet
Great vid had to subscribe man keep up the great content
Max accolade on SA2 is PERFECT, which shows up in bright pink bold font that rewards 2000pts
13:10 knuckles really just did a true input ken shoryuken
That sonic v knuckles battle was accurate AF
0:53 this part is so amazing They use Marina Madness form knuckles choatix

I thought that 21 would be the infamous Sonic OC Coldsteel the Hedgehog and also 23 is probably Tikal
Okay we NEED a video on Dr. Eggman like goddamn he's nuts
Also his Super Form has there own alt skins and one of them is really good ;)
The fact that nintendo never thought to use the insta shield as a neutral air...
Ngl, this mod looks so clean it actually got me interested in Rivals of Aether. Just saying, amazing work.
The spinning air kick is actually the Sideways Trick in Sonic Advance 2 !
That's a neat detail !
The purple hedgehog before the slaughter... I LOST MY CHILD FROM THIS HEDGEHOG! SOMEBODY HELP HELP!!
That’s pretty cool 💙
I think the "It's him" costume is a reference to purple guy as Sonic in that costume is completely purple.
When I heard Scarlet speedster my brain: run sonic run!
I hope the creator of that sonic makes a shadow that has voice lines if they face each other
Using Robotnik tracks from KFAD is highly appreciated
Finally the king of rivals posted
a reference I saw is from pizza tower in the sonic skins it was snick the porqupine.
the sonic advance 2 kick is awesome!
Side-B is Rocket Accel from Sonic Heroes.
THAT instashield is based of the sonic advance games
As a Sonic myself, i see this as an absolute win
If only they put sonic eagle in his move set
Finally hes back
3:49 THAT'S THE WINDMILL MOVE (if you get bounced on a spring, press the R + Right/Left Button to do a trick) FROM SONIC ADVANCE 2!!!!!!
As a Sonic fan myself I do not know some of the references but I do know who big drip is it is chaos from Sonic adventure 2
It’s him… PURPLE GUY!
I got most of them:
Sonic, eggman, tails, knuckles, amy, chaos, shadow, silver, blaze, scourge, mario, spark, lilac, werehog, gameboy, mecha sonic, snowman, no idea, gold, flash, modern sonic, purple guy, no idea, familiar but don't remember, genshin impact, touhou, don't know
If you didn't get the reference one bad day is a reference to scourge from the Archie comics he's basically Sonic but he had one bad day
This mod is incredible!!!
Good vid! 👍
Would like to see vids on Eggman and Knuckles too.
A cool thing about this sonic is if you use the "False chaos and rage" with the chaos emeralds buddy that gives you the emeralds and turns you op then you get dark sonic
edit1: And also using the super sonic skins with the chaos emeralds buddy gets you hyper sonic.
Nahhh this sonic hits hard as saitamas punch
The purple it’s him that was a reference to snick in pizza tower
Ayeee you did it
special down into the up special ring to gain more height
I love this sonic
The "it's him" costume is a reference to snick the porcupine from sage 2019 pizza tower mod.
I wonder if you can use the down special to bounce higher from the ring
they have faker sonic AND chaos as costumes, so clean
On the It’s Him costume, I’m thinking that’s a reference to FNAF. Because, I mean he turns purple, and the costume is It’s Him, like the It’s Me quote.
Imma say it here for the sake of cool combos. You can jump cancel side b if you dont full charge it. Have fun.
Cool mod ngl I'm a actually a sonic fan my favorite character is scourge
Fun fact if you have the chaos emeralds buddies you can go super sonic
Aww ya
might be unrelated but does anyone know why Sai's characters are blacklisted from the workshop? i can get to the characters thru links but when i try to go to the creators workshop page it just says there is nothing there
Uhh no
Vary fun character
What is that song that plays in the bg of the video that plays when Linklight is testing the specials for sonic ?
It’s from Scrap Brain Zone - Sonic 1 Game Gear
@@givinhecks5950 thanks I think its an remix of some sorts but I cannot find it still its good to know that masterpiece.
i think the boost is like pizza tower, keeping up the boost by attacking ur opponent will give u a higher rank if the battle is over
Finally a new video
I think some of the attacks are from sonic battle
Wait where's the ok but can he beat Goku? Segment that's what I was waiting for 😭😭
can you review yellow from animation vs animator next? it has to be one of the best characters i've ever seen, its special gives the character an entire new moveset
i just want to ask you, do you play persona, because you use the persona ost a lot
I like that new sonic skin
OMG! a new sponsor
Yeah just followed Bar-kun and he did release the recent sonic its kinda cool I like how it's different from the Smash version of him its really unique in its own way I bet my ten bucks he makes doomguy next I mean it is the end at his trailer so hopefully we get more content soon
I do know that "her highness" is a reference to blaze and "faker" is shadow
literally rivals of aether doing our boy sonic justice better than smash bros could.
what game is this is seems awesome. also does it cost money
It takes one day costume damn
I think that Super sonic should be the "Boss mode" of this sonic where he gets the same buffs he does in SSB64 with the increased combo potential and also being harder to launch
Rivals modders are built different
bro be transfurred in the thumbnail bruh
ayo can you make a video about Omega Tiger Woods in Rivals?
