I don't hate it personally IF done correctly. As much as I didnt love Mortal Kombat 1 I kinda liked the battlepass there and the idea of being able to unlock some costumes and colors. It was a nice way to reward playing outside just having a ranked icon to chase. On the flip side, I feel like most of SF6s battle pass stuff has been super throw away and hardly even worth grinding out so I guess really we'll have to see if Riot put some solid stuff in and how much $$

Yea it was wild when I first saw they were doing this with Ahri, they are willing to make some BIG changes based on feedback. I'm very curious how that is going to go after Alpha lab because this will be by far the most people finally getting hands-on, so a ton more user feedback is coming! And appreciate you as always Boss!

For sure, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Confirmed the video game does in fact exist! IT'S REAL GUYS, I SWEAR!

Im curious how the "Meta" of Alpha lab is going to shake out but so far both seem strong and are a ton of fun!

@@YoTerrako I’m trying boss! Haha Hopefully more to come in the future.

Thanks for watching, and hoping to bring much more info soon when Alpha lab starts up!

@@Aeroezz for sure! He was a ton of fun when i actually started getting games in later, definitely give him a shot if you get in Alpha Lab!

For sure man! Thanks as always and hope it proves useful for Alpha Lab.

I don't think it will surpass LoL but I definitely think it can bring in new people! Ive talked to plenty of people already who dont have much interest in LoL but are big on fighting games - or even got interested in the world by watching Arcane who are hyped for this game!

Glad to have done it, was a super cool experience! Appreciate you brother. As for the announcer I have not seen anything official about it being talked about. She does sound a bit familiar but I don't know if that's because she is supposed to be an existing character or maybe they just used an actor they have used before... hard to tell so far. But as for more announcers in the future that would be dope! For something like a sarcastic, League-of-Draven style commentator I would absolutely pay money for that. lol

Yea it's up there with most anticipated games ever for me at this point, stoked we are finally getting close after all this time!

@@BruiserMinion fr dawg, my body is ready

Personally, I don't think they would want to go so far as changing animations like character special moves! A huge part of high-level fighting games is learning moves, and move properties for pretty much everything in the game. legit drilling exact interactions and counterplay to all of them. Different animations could mess with the muscle memory you would be building, and add a huge level of additional stuff you would have to train to look out for. That being said! I think things like intro animations, Super move cutscenes and win poses could absolutely be changed with skins! That would be pretty cool to see and wouldn't change the balancing of the game.

I think it's pretty likely they will! Other fighting games like DBFZ and GG Strive have some pretty insane mods, I would like to see what the community would cook up here

It is a shame, I would have loved to have seen her in as well. Hopefully this means they are really pouring a lot into her design and making it excellent though, not just rushed out to meet launch type deal . i'll take it if it means a better design!

@@BruiserMinion hopefully thats what happens. She just has a lot of potential for a game like this.

Good day indeed! It's on Day 1, starts about 26 minutes in ruclips.net/video/zeAxT8oYkgc/видео.html

It is free to play! I only meant Kat won't be base roster, she will be added later - and Jinx should be there at launch. They haven't described exactly how it works yet but did say champs are earnable you don't have to spend money on them. so should still be all good even when Kat is added later!

Was wild for sure, and thanks man!

Yea I feel for you boss. Ive got a couple Oceania homies who are also super hyped for the game, feels bad not everyone gets to play this time around..... Fingers crossed you all get added on the next round soon!

Thanks man, it was a pretty dope experience.... still pretty wild to think back on already tbh. lol And indeed! Hope you get in and we can all finally get some real time in on the game!

Yea it's a bummer for sure, but I have to imagine she will be one of the first champs they add in after launch!

@@BruiserMinion yes inded...but Poor Darius. he s the only champion left without hometown partner (Piltover-Zaun:Ekko Jinx, Ionia: Yasuo Ahri, Fred-Bildge Braum Illaoi)

@@malfana07 Makes me curious if they will add another Noxian before launch! They definitely could... but who? Personally, my top pick if not Kat would be Samira

@@BruiserMinion I bet samira will came out to accompany Draven. both of these champ are FG-compatible.

@@malfana07 Good point! Draven would be a great choice too, even now actually! He is Darius's brother afterall so that would be a perfect fit.

You can keep Vanguard off, and then restart your pc to re-enable it.

@@grimdagoblinmain The drivers being installed is still a security vulnerability. Albeit, it would be harder if it was off, but the problem still remains. I shouldn't have to fuck around with drivers to play a game, other anti-cheats function just fine without having to restart my PC. Plus, judging from the matches I have played before I decided ultimately to abandon Vanguard was the fact that cheaters are still infecting lobbies just fine through traditional methods without relying on kernel level cheats, so the extra security is useless.

@@anOkLAN if i must have my PC bricked, just so i can play the game SO FUCKING BE IT

@@lukasvavra2473 I don't think you know what bricked means my guy lel, did you mean compromised or vulnerable? Bricked means the the thing wont start, you know like a brick

Why?

@@foxmx125 it barely prevents cheaters, causes major performance loss even when outside of the game, and has caused computers to break (eg.: disabling keyboard drivers or straight up preventing bootup) vanguard is garbage, its a worse piece of software than that hellish league client

@@luccabibar7033 damn I'm happy I haven't ran into any of those problems the couple years I've been playing val or my friends. Id imagine these problems are pretty rare.

@@luccabibar7033 if i must have my PC bricked, just so i can play the game SO FUCKING BE IT

Custom chromas would be WILD! I feel like a lot of games steer away from it these days though. People who try to make things as nude as they can in games like King of Fighters 13 ruin it for the rest of us, the Devs no longer trust! lol

@@BruiserMinion true, they could probably make a filter for too many of the same color being on a character even tho it would probably ruin my dreams of turning Bruam into colossus 🦸

@@Superspooks. That's true I'm sure they could find a way to make it work! And Colossus or Mecha Braum would go pretty hard ngl. lol

Thanks man! Yea I've gotta say it was pretty cool of them to do! I might seem biased in this particular circumstance of course but I've seen them be pretty cool with others around me too and I very much love that angle. They absolutely could have just gone for the Maximillians and Sajams of the world but it does seem like they are good even to us small fries.

From the way Shaun described it in that panel this first one will be part of a battlepass. So I imagine you buy like the 10-15 dollar pass and then progress the pass until the end to unlock her type deal. Then additionally can grind some way or another for a special color/ chroma too. that being said it's still going to be just an alpha so very much subject to change.

@@BruiserMinion ah fuck

I did not know that actual, that is a nice little detail for sure! Im genuinely very curious what regions this game is going to vibe with when it does eventually come out. Some new wave of Korean pro fighting game players outside of Tekken would be really cool to see.

​@@BruiserMinionAlso, remember that Ahri is the most popular champion in Asia.

Counting down the days, we are so close!

Same. 🥰

Yes but it's different version than the PC one

Where did you hear about that?

​@@popocraft4677Valorant for console has vanguard and it's REALLY GOOD at detecting arduino and xim mnk inputs

It's a great game, can confirm now after playing a few times! I know there is a lot of hesitation with Vangaurd but hopefully, they get it sorted as Riot starts pushing it into more and more games. People have been pretty vocal about disliking it so have to imagine Riot is listening

@@BruiserMinion yeah kernel level anticheat is really bad and it doesn't even work. Blizzard tried this shit and even then they still had cheaters. I'm not comfortable giving any games company level 0 access to my computer especially since anything they push to live could potentially brick it if it isn't tested well enough

@@Sarkhamy if i must have my PC bricked, just so i can play the game SO FUCKING BE IT

It kind of feels like power creep in League in a lot of ways! There are so many old characters that get borderline invalidated over the years by new champs that go absolutely wild, so they have to rework the old ones. This game has been in Dev for like 7+ years so I'm sure there has been numerous champs on top of Kat that have been fully restarted and we just dont know about them. But yea overall im sure even riot is kicking themselves for showing her so long ago but not being able to get her across the finish line for launch.

@@BruiserMinion Yea your right. I just hope the coolest characters besides Katarina like Zed, Viego, Irelia, Fiora,Kayne and exc.. don’t run into the same problem. I hope they have some of those characters locked in for launch roster.

Thanks boss, it was a ton of fun and I'm super thankful it happened! And yea even more EVO locations is a huge deal, hope all the EU homies have a blast. it's such a dope event to get to see in person and im sure the Nice one will have its own unique charms too.

Indeed! Would have loved to see her make base roster but i'll take this, put the time in and make her perfect Riot! And agreed, I would love to see character intros and unique interactions! I wont if there will be new voicelines, effects, and the whole nine yards like some of the LoL skins. They really go all out for some of the more expensive ones. But I guess that's the other question, waiting to see pricing on here too guess we shall see soon!

Yea it's still pretty surprising to me that it happened too ngl.... haha But for sure! GL getting in of course, but for those who don't make it in hopefully it'll still be a good time to catch some streams and get a ton of new footage!

Appreciate it! I do genuinely hope they spread the love to other regions soon. It'll be a great day once EVERYONE who has wanted to try the game finally has a shot and we can all play together.

@@BruiserMinion I think that'll be around when Arcane 2 comes out to ride the hype and stuff. So November/December

@@007meef6 Oh yea! Arcane 2, AND LoL 15 Year anniversary already this year. If they do anything close to 10-year stuff, it's gonna be a massive event for Riot as a whole and I imagine with how close this game is getting to full launch it would be heavily involved!

Thanks for watching! 🤝

Yea I feel like I have heard about a ton of pushback people have for Vangaurd, but to be honest im pretty ignorant as to fully why it's so disliked. Is the gist of it that people don't think it works as well as it should?

@@BruiserMinion in general people don't like it because they are scared of "chinese spyware" or it just affects performance of their PCs, but also it doesn't work that well as Riot says, you can research the problem with cheats in high elo in LoL for example, the just don't have answers for that. And they didn't release Valorant to other OS then Windows because they can't make Vanguard work there...

@@N5O1 Gotcha, thanks for the breakdown man. Historically I haven't had nearly the bad luck with cheaters on Fighting Games as I have with shooters. But as a long-time Counterstrike player, I will say it's not something you wanna wait to properly implement. If cheating gets to the level that CS GO had - its too late and legit game-killing to me. Fingers crossed it's not an issue here because that would be a massive bummer to say the least.

@@BruiserMinion From my understanding of technical knowledge with is almost kind of zero, Kernel software is very dangerous to the computers in the sense that Kernel runs a level down of your operative system, for instance, Windows runs later after Vanguard. This obviously gives ton of power to the anti-cheat which I will not explain to you bc it will take me hours. This raises up the question, how this will even come to fruition? Well, to get Vanguard approved Riot had to get technical compliance from governments around the World, especially important in Europe who has one of the most strict data security laws over the World. To wrap it up, Vanguard must be legit in order to just get it working taking into account technical compliance, and despite being as powerful, it should be safe in your computer. Last note, if Riot was not affiliated with Tencent, people would not be causing that commotion about it. But yeah.

@@elrubent Ahhhh okay gotcha, that makes a lot of sense. I do feel like I've seen a lot of people call it Maleware and not liking how much "control" they theoretically could have should things take a turn for the worse. Almost more worried what it COULD do over what it's actually doing as it stands. Appreciate the insight!

Indeed! I am VERY curious about what all is gonna be in Alpha lab. Tom using the term "Full game" in the announcement video makes me feel like it can't just be online matchmaking.... hoping for at least custom lobbies, Training mode, and maybe some combo trials? Would be dope!

Appreciate you brother, and I better see you up there next year! Counting the minutes to Alpha Lab already. haha

Yea I'm sorry to hear it, I know a lot of folks are being left out this time around and it's lousy to see. I'm really hoping they jump right into another test shortly after this first one, and they will almost definitely open it up to more regions for following tests. Hope you get to play soon and at least there will be a lot of footage to help hold ppl a bit as well!

Appreciate you. 😤

@@BruiserMinion np

Was such a wild but cool experience, I was hyped to be there! Thanks for watching and the support boss.

yeah right? Recognition to a small but passionate creator from Riot themselves is great to see!

Couldn't agree more! I think some sort of progression ouside just a straight-up ranked badge is HUGE. Just grinding ranked can be super daunting to a lot of people not to mention games like SF 6 right now even can feel like if you hit master, you're kinda done. This is great not only in the short term to help get people a little hooked, but also constantly have goals being added you can work at if you so choose is nice.
