Cheers! 🍻 Appreciate the love for the content

Arakune and faust are covered in a lot of detail in my item-thrower archetype archive actually! As for merkava, might be a while on that one, hes a hard dude to place in an archetype, air fireballs like his are rare.

So sorry! Arakune is discussed in the one-shot video! Its been a while, so forgive my memory.

On its way! Might be this weeks video, depending on some things. But should be coming soon!

Yeah I think its kinda interesting that Makoto can choose to be or not to be a one-shot, as it stands im more likely to just call her a true rushdown character, she just wants to get in and stay in after all, but I do love having the option of sinking all your meter into being the scariest character in the game temporarily.

From what I've seen other creators do, I think the 1-axis tier list does better for clickbait, but as far as understanding goes, it gives too many people the wrong Idea, I think theoretical vs practical is really really important, I got clowned on in the comments of the What Makes a Top Tier video for saying Ken is, and likely always will be better than Luke in street fighter 6, due to practicality being naturally ingrained into Kens moveset whereas Luke has to use more guesses per round to win. But even at the time, I stood by it, and I think results show it was pretty resoundingly true.

Its provocative, it gets the people going!

Wasnt on purpose, I was making a series on archetypes and thought "archetype overview" sounded way too stiff and brainstormed other possible ideas, pretty quickly you realise theres not a lot of other things to land on as a result.

Theyre difficult, the mental flowcharting thing is a really strange thing to get used to, but if you put the time in it can be really fun... although prepare to lose a few friends if you obliterate them as these guys. Not fun to be on the recieving end of.

@@DarumaFGC Well, I typically play zoners. Which isn't the most friendly archetype either ; D That might make a good video actually! "Tier list, Which archetype is the most friendly."

@@oronsnibben unfortunately I think that would be pretty inconclusive, theres a ton of characters like say, item-throwers, who vary wildly between ease of use and tier in any game they're present in. But I will be considering other possible tier lists and visual guides of that sort to like, ease you guys into other more fun and less strictly educational kinds of content

Gotta go fast

Honestly a really hard question, i think id maybe put her on the outskirts of a mixup character. Her neutral is just so unique though, its quite hard to point to other characters who play similarly, but she does, theoretically anyways - kinda analogue something like GGXRD Millia, more mobility than other characters, her kunai act as a pin to both stuff approaches and force mixups, her air to ground is astounding and her gap closing is quite good. The only thing shes missing is a proper version of disc to actually force mixups off any knockdown she gets, not that her knockdown pressure is bad, its just a little simple for a mixup character - but street fighter kinda needs that, if it was overly potent, it would be basically broken. So, i think maybe shes a true mixup character, even if largely by technicality.

Pixie gets used sometimes, but i try make things really obvious for beginners, and I think Pixie works much better for "Pixie grappler" than they do for these guys, not a lot of games have the low hp pool downside to swap for speed, and speed is actually officially used as a tag for chipp in GGST. So I went with that instead for simplicity and clarities sake.

Pixie characters tend to have more options or mix tho.

@@MILDMONSTER1234 ya? Dont know how that clashes with either comment but ya you are correct.

@@BlackHero20 The way I see it is that every pixie is a speed character but not every speed character is a pixie. I wouldn’t call Valk a pixie but he’s def speed but Taokaka is a pixie

Much appreciated! Cheers! 🍻

Yeah the guys a bit of a monster, most of the characters i play just fly swat him away though, thankfully

Definitely looking into it!

Pixie is only used in some circles and is also overlapped with "Pixie grappler" which i think is a far better and more obvious archetype than the regular pixie types. I use archetype titles based on beginners and speed i think is more self evident (low hp isnt necesarrily a requirement) and is used officially as a tag in both blazblue and guilty gear, a few other games too. Its an in-house title for the archetype that devs actually use, while pixies more of a fan-name.

@DarumaFGC OK, that makes sense. I get how the term isn't exactly intuitive. Thank you for the honest and detailed reply, I just assumed since most of the video shows Chipp, that low health, or at least limited defense (like Valkenhayn) were the most essential parts of a pixie.

Fingers crossed you win big but dont get the very top tier so you can at least tell your friends you play a mid tier!

Much appreciated! Maybe yu-gi-oh next time?

Character is evil, so i understand

Really tense but fun matchups to watch at least!

Only 2 that i know of, maybe more though

Hyokutomaru from Garou has a grounded shuriken projectile! Hes most likely returning for the upcoming Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves - so look forward to that!

Dual Souls appears to be a sequel/remake of an obscure GBA game I forgot the name of.

@@baalfgames5318 Its Dual Blades. Also, Dual Souls is the remake of a sequel made for mobile phones called Slashers the Power Battle, which is very much the middle ground between the two

Unfortunately its kinda between Blazblue and Guilty gear and i want the focus to be on the archetype and not the characters themselves, i might do an actual street fighter tier list at some point, but a lot of archetypes, like item throwers, summoners, puppet characters, etc are anime fighting game archetypes, and will never appear in street fighter, so, sorry, kinda infeasible until i actually make my own tier list maker, which i couldnt find a good tool for in a reasonable amount of time for this vid.

Hit and run are different! Think someone like Vega, he doesnt have strong mixup or block pressure at all and is solely focused on interception, and his moves often just send him back fullscreen on block or sometimes on hit.

Very much appreciated dude! Cheers! 🍻

Speed characters are more about blockstrings and resets, while demons are closer to setplay.

@@balintkristof8442 TBH Chipp can play a mad setplay game if you let him in

@@OccuredJakub12 Desu, that's Guilty Gear in general.

@@balintkristof8442 As an Axl main, no it isn't

Its definitely a bit of a spectrum for sure, technically you could umbrella all of these under rushdown and youd technically be right, but theres a lot of factors that i think make you more like one than the other, for example, i think restands are almost always useless for demon characters but basically necessary for speed characters, obviously none of these guys have a demon flip which adds to that. Simultaneously, demon characters have pretty mediocre blockstrings. Whereas speed characters probably have the best block pressure of any archetype. The reason i wouldnt call Valkenhayn a stance character is that theres 2 kinds of stance characters, wincon stances, where entering stance is hard and is your whole goal, or neutral stances, with different purposes that help you either mix the opponent up or pick different effective ranges. Valkenhayns stance is in a weird limbo where it doesnt really fit into either. Like youll see in the clips in the video, on the rare occassion it is used in neutral, its either used to get away from the opponent or at an insanely sharp angle that things like dps would not win out on. His stance adds to his momentum, his blockstrings are longer (but his mix is worse than in human form) and because he both cant block in wolf form and its tied to a resource unlike say, Leo from GG, so his goal isnt really getting wolf form and staying there. Its just an enhancer for when contacts already made with the opponent.

Bro said he is gonna cover it next, just wait till the end lmao

You got me 😩

Thank you very much for the support!

I heard i was needed and rushed to action

I appreciate the harsh but fair criticism 😩 Jokes aside, thanks for the support!

Thank you for the thoughts on the tutorials as well as the kind words! Based on the feedback ive recieved so far, it seems releasing both the reference document id be using as a script as well as individual videos for each chapter seems like what people most want to see, and then i can just compile the chapters into a single larger video after the series is done. Hopefully each individual video is interesting enough by itself and easy enough to follow that people get to grow with the series and by the time they need help to progress further, a new tutorial releases. Thats my goal anyhow

If you weren't there for it, Dark Knights Metal was one of DC's biggest marketing pushes ever, ads for it in every comic and full size in every comic store, it was inescapable, it was likely another way to get people to buy the comic series to feature him somewhere comic readers dont necessarily frequent

@@DarumaFGC Nope turns out for some reason The Batman Who Laughs was a prominent character in the DC X Fortnite comics for some reason

I think they're funny, its just silly to have batman say them

@@DarumaFGC Maybe its because I grew up with cartoon batman but I love when Batman makes a few jokes here and there

Was thinking of monarchs personally

Thank you very much for the kind words! Your support means a lot!

I'm not entirely sure what you're referring to with beast cannon, off the top of my head no characters move is called that, if its something like, things like blanka ball and psycho crusher, those are pretty interesting, Though in effect they're not a ton different to things like lariats or straights, since its just using your whole body as a weapon in a straight line, and yeah those kinds of moves are extremely powerful, but if you direct me to what you specifically mean, i'd have a better idea and know how to comment

@@DarumaFGC in Darkstalkers, Jon Talbain/Gallon has a move called Beast Cannon with which he has an omnidirectional dash attack that can cross up the opponent. Beowulf from Skull Girls and Zeta from Granblue both have a move in this style.

Thank you for the insight! I think with regards to this many people seem to digest things through videos better, while I do still have my old tutorials up I think the best way to do things would be to do chapter by chapter as videos and then upload the whole thing as one huge video once the tutorial series is finished, while thats a while away, it seems like the right thing to do

Feints would be cool. Deejay in SF6 is a notable recent example too.

It might be more relevant early next year - in Garou - Mark of the Wolves, Feints are a universal mechanic, every character has 2 moves they can feint in neutral and it does a lot for the game, and since City of the Wolves is due to release in April next year its pretty likely universal feints will be something worth a lot of discussion around then! Either way, know that its on my radar.

Thank you! I try my best, but I feel like even in the short length of these videos, they can generally be pretty comprehensive and exhaustive, its not like i'm dying to say more about divekicks at this time. But either way I will take it into consideration for sure.

Fingers crossed if CVS3 actually happens like it seems it might right now, that he gets to be just as scary as Geese and Rugal

it can be a good idea to mix and match playstyles even on characters who very firmly are designed a certain way, so, you're ahead of the pack in that regard
