Yo Ive been doing this run and this guy is actually one of the most infuriating monsters, after about 100 resets I have not managed to get a hitless run, he is just too fast, and this run is in fact really fast for insect glaive
Sick run! When I did my 1st risen valstrax I couldn't do stuff half the fight because I'm used to i-framing attacks, but this guy has such big hitboxes... You gotta have big cahoons to deflect those hits.
fr, i had to use evade window for my first time, took me all night to beat him once. once you get use to his patterns tho, he becomes much more fun. and technically you can through alot of his hitboxes even without evasion boosting skills. this is not a speedrun of mine, but you may find this video interesting showcasing what i was talking about ruclips.net/video/DS10GE0h05Q/видео.htmlsi=1NjYqwywH-iNgrd1 thank you for watching btw!
I love how the helicopter makes you look like a pesky little mosquito. You really make this fight look trivial! Quick question! I've been trying to emulate some of your stuff, but the attack at 1:27 has been throwing me off. I can never tell when Valstrax is going to do a second wingslam or if he's going to do the wing thrust. I try to go by the sound cue, but the window is so tight that I sometimes can't start advancing roundslash in time to counter the thrust. How do you manage to get this so consistently?
indeed, helicopter is a fun time. and it's pretty much just reaction for me, im actually not sure how you can tell when he's gonna the uppercut during his wing slam combos. there's probably some cue that tells you when he's gonna do it before he throws it out, but im not exactly sure as of now sorry
thank you! Discount Dante lol and yeahhh, this is one of the only viable matchups where helicopter is useful since his wings have good damage zones and they're big enough. this is one my my more favorite matchups with ig. thank you for watching!
What kinsect was this? Also what was the reason for using this one over Monarch Alucanid? I’m an IG player who kinda swapped to the new kinsects when I got them unlocked and never really looked back at the older ones
2:54 scariest shit of my life

It's okay, I really appreciate the response!
The fact that you counter the uppercut by reaction makes this even more impressive to watch! @@Pragles
damn, are we playing the same game?
The moment i though you're playing dmc and maintain midair to dogde many attacks lol, sooooo coooool❤❤❤❤

i didnt know going back up into the air had s is that added recently or has it always been that way?
i don't think is has invincible frames going back up, i just think that move has very funny dead zone
Sooo cool, do all the risens end up in arena? Amazing fight, props!
thank you so much, i appreciate it! and yes, you can get all the risen elders in just the arenas.
@@Pragles Credit where credit is due my friend!
Ahh no way, that's awesome, I only just did risen teostra so a little way off yet..
How did you get that level 3 mail of hellfire Decor?
it's certain melding option you get once you progress enough through anomaly. its the talisman, not a deco
I had no idea the IG could deal that much damage
