Congratulations on making this spectacular record, Alex! 👏 1:58 cracked me up so hard when Fatalis had enough of your counters and went all-in on its paw swipes. It looked like a pet throwing a bad tantrum-totally gif worthy. There was a similar tantrum moment at 5'30 and I was amazed when you connected that High Thrust I after the Charged Counter Thrust at 5:32. Your bold charges at 7:11 and 9:33 are also very impressive! With you initially being perpendicular to Fatalis, it looked like you wouldn't be able to adjust your direction in time. Then I realized that you were anticipating Fatalis to back up for the cone attack, and I thought to myself, _"why did I doubt Alex, he obviously knows what he's doing."_ I'm very happy for you and ZOne breaking some huge milestones this week. Looking forward to your next project!
Thanks! I like to call his slaps the 'baby rage' because it always reminds me of a toddler trying to hit something. I think the most I've gotten in a row is six. The high thrust to hit the head after the counter thrust is something that I figured out pretty recently. I don't know why it took me so long to do; all you have to do is just delay the attack a little bit. You can't delay it too much though or else you can't block the next attack in time. Charging at an angle at him when he moves away is a good idea for dodging the cone, but the primary purpose is actually to avoid getting hit by fireballs if he does them. If you don't run straight at him, they just miss, which is convenient.
@@doom8274i know idevaste and one other guy got busted for modding the monster AI. I don't know about this run tho, what makes you think this is tool assisted?
This run is so incredibly good, i've been trying to learn stuff to do. I can now do the clutch counter on the shotgun blast -> swoop thing, which is very cool. The other thing I notice is these head punishes are just unreal. i'm looking at 1:34, 2:15, 2:24 and how you turn 180 off of a power guard to hit the head. but your power guard happens so fast. i feel like no matter how hard i try, my animation for counter -> power guard feels slower. is there some trick here? is this a pc vs console thing?
Great run dude. at 1:39 how did u guard and counter claw right away ? every time i tried i always was pushed back really hard so counter claw motion was impossible
You have to be close to the chest. The wind from Fatalis' attack resets your guard and you are able to counter claw. It's tight but can be done very consistently once you get the hang of it.
@@doom8274 I think you’re confused between “ TAS “ or Tool assisted speedrun with “ TA “ or Time attack which is another Speedrun category for MHW with more restrictions, basically it’s you vs monster, no outside influence nor environmental resources like palicoes, mantle, slinger ammo, wallbangs etc. (though some resources are allowed, you really have to read the rules.)
Hello I know this is an old video but, I wanted to know how you did that move on 1:39, i ve been trying to recreate that block to counter claw but i get super flinched when trying to block that

Man I can’t figure out how to quickly do the clutch counter as fast as you, seems the fastest way is to do the “cancel block” and then aim the claw. I caught fati’s head a few times when he flies up after the blast but It just doesn’t seem as fast as yours, when you do it there is no wind up animation, you just get right into it. Is there a shortcut to do it right after blocking? Or are you just ridiculously fast? Help me out man.
@@madscientist3800 oh i practiced and nailed it, the trick is when to block, turns out theres a sweet spot for blocking that minimizes knockback regardless of guard skill. Cuz sometimes i get knocked hard and sometimes not, same block same attack.
@@HaythamAlshamlanMight be too late but you still get knocked back by the fire breath but if you are near enough you would get hit by wind when he flies which would cancel the knockback.
@ makes total sense, positioning and timing, and a little bit of luck i guess. Never too late to improve my game man, I’m still very active 3k hours into the game.
Lol, it was for a bit there. I revisited Fatalis in the first place because Z0ne was doing some good new strats and I knew we could push the time down. Now that we've improved the time, I think I'm good with leaving it alone.
On a Playstation controller, if you hold L2 and press R3, you'll switch to the claw and can shoot it with Circle. It's the same button placements on Xbox. I'm not sure what it would be on mouse and keyboard.
This is probably my favourite lance v fatalis video to watch
This vid got me into lance funnily enough
Me either, i watch this video at least 2 or 3 times per week 🤣🤣🤣
@@KucingObesitas are you doing some runs yourself?

This is the cleanest fatalis run of lance I ever saw. Love your reflexes man. So smooth. I wish I could play lance this GOOD!
its not his reflexes it's tool assisted lmao
@@doom8274 TA means Time Attack not Tool Assisted 💀
@@valtharen2168 nah he cheated look it up, all these old runners got exposed

You demonstrate true mastery of this matchup. A joy to watch from beginning to end!
This man can LANCE
its tool assisted, it's a cheat speedrun
Just found this run. GG Alex! Keep it up!
Ur reaction and technique really improved since your last run. Made me re-think the use of the guard dash. I wasn’t utilizing it enough apparently.

Watched many fatalis run. Why do players purposely get hit by the fist nova?
I do it to activate Coalescence using the fireblight
How do you chain the guard at 1:39 into the clutch guard?
I think he blocked using the LT/L2
Has this become the Fatalis channel?

Song? Also amazing run

@@xel7495 TYSM I was racking my brain apart I play scarlet nexus so I was like is it in there? I went thru all OST couldn't find you are a God-send.
Might I ask what your build is, it seems to be doing alot of dmg
3:23 how did you clutch claw without sheathing your weapon? This should not be possible.
On a Playstation controller, if you hold L2 and press R3, you'll switch to the claw and can shoot it with Circle. It's the same button placements on Xbox. I'm not sure what it would be on mouse and keyboard.
I reached fatalis not knowing that I can use the regular clutch claw without taking my weapon off. I feel so noob@@alex_3572
Fucking hell dude.
hello
Lance looks satisfying to use!
Indeed it is!
I'm maining lance XD
