His random appears at Spooky’s big two playing his Litchi and having SKD talk about how he should learn combos because he would dominate if he just learned litchi combos.
Hearing LK talk about how much hes struggled with confidence and being really affected by people calling him fraud and stuff is always really inspiring. Pros like to talk about having to always have this like zen attitude and not caring about that stuff but seeing someone that I reapect as much as LK actually say "yeah this is a real struggle and its difficult to deal with...but it *is* possible to deal with it and win" is a much more satisfying response to it. He'll forever be the GOAT to me for that. Thanks for getting him on this video.
No flame, i like the dude but are uou talking about due to his persona win? Because dude was in minazuki who was broken that patch, an 8 person tourney with no money, vs people who are no names. Literally not even listed on liquidpedia
In 2009-2010 Jiyuna's placings in tournaments would probably rank him a top 3 American MBAA player. He never got to play at Evo because he moved to Japan the year it was there. He qualified for SBO multiple times in BB as well.
@@warpticon there we are, i forgot that he was cracked at mbaa. Wasnt a stab at the dude saying hes not top level but ahh, he exaggerates the persona achievement a bit
dude fuck all that LK is an absolute legend in my eyes and honestly i would’ve had his back. That makes me mad as fuck that anyone would have ever been like that to him. He’s fucking cool and a good dude and helped so many people (me included) get into anime games. Love that guy
As someone who hasn't played any of the games mentioned in this video, I must say that it was pretty engaging watch. Felt like I just saw a man mature/evolve into a better version of himself through the lens of a fighting game and I loved every second of it. Thanks for the upload!
this was a really cool video, I just got into Strive this summer with evo, and I really liked the way that LK played Baiken, I still consider myself a beginner but I really like the attutude that he has and I find it inspiring, humble but not underestimating himself or his accomplishments and makes me want to get better and not letting my doubts or ego get in my way, just focusing on having fun and trying to improve as I go
Yooooo yall got LK?!?!?! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I’ve always felt like he hasn’t had the notoriety of a lot of pro players in the fgc for som reason….so seeing that u guys got him on is so dope!!!
Great video! You're not talking about it but I started FG thanks to your Blazblue CS Evo 2011 winner's final against Tokido. I've been on and off in your footsteps since I've played Noel in BB, then Mitsuru and finally Millia in Strive, really appreciating your content! I've had the chance to meet Tokido at Brussels Challenge this year, so I hope one day I'll also get to see you as you both had such a big impact on my FG journey! Stay strong LK
Watched since late xrd early dbfz but met LK at CEO this year and that helped me get back into playing competitively again. I placed 97th in strive and 17th in bbcf at the same event. Since then I’ve been on the grind and regularly go to locals and on/offline stuff.
nice interview! Lord Knight's mindset (doubting himself, then finding the will/inner strength to move on) and work ethic (playing all those different games, finding the wins against strong opponents) is truly something special.
My competitive goat and inspiration. This sounds funny after everything said in the video, but I think the mental and ideas Lordknight puts out are some of the best in all of the FGC and it has really motivated me to get good and have fun
Damn this was a good watch. I really respect how honest and vulnerable he was willing to be about how the criticisms he got affected his confidence as a player and how he managed to overcome it. Very inspiring!
Watching LK beat Gobou and Nage live was like watching him win Evo 2 games in a row. Gobou won Evo Japan the day before and he hates fighting Faust with Baiken with every breath in his body. And he cleared both of them back to back.
There's such a stench of racism in how people discredit LK in his early years, I'm glad he overcame that and kept playing the game, I always enjoy his analysis and thoughts on games, he's very rational and insightful, you can learn a lot just by aspiring to behave like this.
Met him when he came to Brazil for a tournament last year, he's not just an awesome fighting game player, he's also a really humble and nice guy. You'd never guess that this chill, friendly person could open you up with the nastiest, most unfair broken *ss Baiken 50/50s known to man 10 times in a round.
LK basically ignited my passion for anime fighters with his P4A Mitsuru. Always felt bad he got such hate back then. Youll snatch the evo crown in strive for sure LK!
American anime fans who have been following the genre for a while know, LK is legit. This was a great video, great insight from LK. Hearing LK talk about how people wanted him to throw his match against Banana Ken, it took me back. Throwing matches and match fixing was extremely common back in the day. It sucked. LK deserved better from the community, to be sure. Glad to see this has changed.
Alt title: The story of LK confronting his own shadow. lol For real though, it's an inspiring story. He's one of my favorite players to watch, both in content and tournaments. The FGC is better with him still around, glad he never gave up despite the haters.
I feel like LK has had one of the hardest fighting game careers out of anyone, it's super impressive how he has improved over the years and it's super motivating and reassuring that even with all that hardship and self-doubt LK had worked through it.
All top FG players are incredible. NOT all top FG players can explain games in a way that make fans realize just how amazing they are. LK is one of the rare ones.
Jiyuna. Living proof you don't need basic knowledge of game mechanics, skill, practice, etc. Just to pick a character with a DP and gay dive kick and generally play like shit.
LK has been my favorite player since dbfz, just bc his demeanor, idk how to describe it other than - the work shows itself Thanks for teaching me gotenks and truly getting deep into a genre ive grown love and hate🤌😚😈

What are some of your favorite Lordknight moments or matches?
"You lose to lows and throws, you can hold my nuts"
His random appears at Spooky’s big two playing his Litchi and having SKD talk about how he should learn combos because he would dominate if he just learned litchi combos.
Bonjour
The set vs Tiger Pop was definitely hype af he almost beat leffen too
I watched his 3 man run post Evo Japan live. It was every bit as good as he describes it.
Man LK looks 19 and 55 at the same time. My GOAT.
“Yeah, it’s not fun, you can hold that.”
God LK is a goat

He'll forever be the GOAT to me for that. Thanks for getting him on this video.
LK is so sick, so glad you guys got him on
I didn't know Jiyuna was cracked like that
PULL OUT THE SHORTS JIYUNA, AND SHOW THIS YOUNG BUCK
didn't what?

LK will always be one of my top 3 fgc goats. When he talks about how he can do it, it makes me want to work harder.
this whole thing shoulda just had one title card: LK vs LK
and the nice part is it looks like he won
dude fuck all that LK is an absolute legend in my eyes and honestly i would’ve had his back. That makes me mad as fuck that anyone would have ever been like that to him. He’s fucking cool and a good dude and helped so many people (me included) get into anime games. Love that guy
It takes a bad bad man to make a corny name like Lord Knight cool.
😂 now that you mention it, he actually pulled it off
Honestly great player aside, that probably really is LK's greatest feat
I always thought he got it from an MMORPG called Elsword. There’s a character class called Lord Knight.
@@susanoo8468 Fraudulent FE fan spotted
@@susanoo8468 that was my first thought until I realized the general history of the term.
LK is for sure goated. Remember meeting him when I first got into the fgc back in like 17’.
Also this was dope thank you for this.
I'm sure @animeilluminati loves the fact that he was your first "gods can bleed" arc.
LK is such a goated humble fella, real chill and very informative content creator
@18:08 Good you came to that conclusion. That was the era where everyone was called a fraud even when they won.
As someone who hasn't played any of the games mentioned in this video, I must say that it was pretty engaging watch. Felt like I just saw a man mature/evolve into a better version of himself through the lens of a fighting game and I loved every second of it.

As a lordknight fan, this is the best video from this channel for me. The editing and the pacing, it has such a fitting vibe.
finding the necessary confidence to accomplish my goals has been the story of my life, so hearing LK tell his story really fed my soul💕🙏🏾
The goat, god bless him, never understood all the ire he ever got, I'm glad to see him in a better state of mind.
Lordknight is goated. A thoughtful and mature voice in the FGC. It's clear he's gone through a lot of personal growth. You love to see it
Yooooo yall got LK?!?!?! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I’ve always felt like he hasn’t had the notoriety of a lot of pro players in the fgc for som reason….so seeing that u guys got him on is so dope!!!
Yume genuinely won me over with the way he consoled LK after that Grand Finals...You could tell that he felt for dude.
Class move.
Great video! You're not talking about it but I started FG thanks to your Blazblue CS Evo 2011 winner's final against Tokido. I've been on and off in your footsteps since I've played Noel in BB, then Mitsuru and finally Millia in Strive, really appreciating your content!

I feel smarter just by listening to him talk about his journey.
When i met LK in person at evo i had to fight back my instincts of saying "you look younger in person"
LK is pretty good for a content creator! :)
That's the joke...
@@LordHeishin it is. its also a twitter joke hes referencing i think lol
@@CHEYMIXyeah I was responding to somebody who didn't get it and has since deleted their comment
@ ah

Let's go Lordknight! Glad to see everyone vibing with this.
nice interview! Lord Knight's mindset (doubting himself, then finding the will/inner strength to move on) and work ethic (playing all those different games, finding the wins against strong opponents) is truly something special.
4:01 "LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO- yo what?"
It was a different time 🥹
My competitive goat and inspiration. This sounds funny after everything said in the video, but I think the mental and ideas Lordknight puts out are some of the best in all of the FGC and it has really motivated me to get good and have fun
Fantastic, insightful video into the first player to really bring me into anime fighters.
What a cool idea for a series. Also love LK. What a great guy.
Looking at all the characters LK's invested time into over the years, I really resonate with his picks
LKs success emergin from his commitment and effort is amazing. Keep on keeping on king!
Lmao he wasn’t kidding about the started in smash stuff I never saw a pic of him that old he’s got the smashfro and everything
In love with this series please do more!!
This was such a cool video, I wish he wouldve talked a little more about the online evo top8 with Millia tho
Damn this was a good watch. I really respect how honest and vulnerable he was willing to be about how the criticisms he got affected his confidence as a player and how he managed to overcome it. Very inspiring!
Watching LK beat Gobou and Nage live was like watching him win Evo 2 games in a row. Gobou won Evo Japan the day before and he hates fighting Faust with Baiken with every breath in his body. And he cleared both of them back to back.
LK my goat!
as someone who grew up in the xrd scene.... LordKnight will always be a legend to me
Amazing video..LK my GOAT fr
The persona days truly were some good times
🐐

Yo this content creator has made it to multiple grand finals? He might be goated
That's my goat, him and Jiyuna got me into blazblue, what a sick game
LK has always been a hard worker. Glad to see him being featured here.
Also, hey! I saw me in here! 😅
Godlike video. LK the 🐐.
Thank you for capturing footage of everything back then, it really elevated this video.
LK basically ignited my passion for anime fighters with his P4A Mitsuru. Always felt bad he got such hate back then.
Youll snatch the evo crown in strive for sure LK!
Now this is MY goat. He is the one
LK is truly the goat. Met him at BrookLAN during a GGST event. I want to get good enough at 2XKO to run sets with him when that drops.
I was one of those ppl back then who believed in LK and I still do
American anime fans who have been following the genre for a while know, LK is legit. This was a great video, great insight from LK.

My goat
I remeber that. The ah ah ah ah ahhh. Every combo.
Really cool video. I just wish there was a Blazblue match here.
Damn they really had to add in the battle of the hallway clip
You can see the graphics and technology change. Also our aging.
My goat 🐐
It’s nice to see Melty Blood’s history represented in content aimed at the mainstream fgc
My GOAT
Gotta respect LK.
My mans a great fighting game champion, but his real strength is the t-shirt game. Rewatch, literally all certified bangers
Damn. This guy looks older every time I see him!
Like one of those wise anime old people that could curb stomp you at your own game
All top FG players are incredible. NOT all top FG players can explain games in a way that make fans realize just how amazing they are. LK is one of the rare ones.
Lordknight, my goat, fuck the haters
LK seems like a chill dude, but man... you can see how much e-sports drain the soul of a man with him.
MY GOAT LK
My god the brain on hotashi.
LK is awesome. Consummate professional.
The yume section made my grown self cry
LK gotta bring back the shades
da goat
Jiyuna. Living proof you don't need basic knowledge of game mechanics, skill, practice, etc.
Just to pick a character with a DP and gay dive kick and generally play like shit.
22:00 wonder if he was talking about knowkami
goat knight tbh
Hotel hallways is a giant dorky sex meeting.
Lk my goat
LK my goat ❤
LK truly is the *GOAT*
LK :)
LK has been my favorite player since dbfz, just bc his demeanor, idk how to describe it other than - the work shows itself
Thanks for teaching me gotenks and truly getting deep into a genre ive grown love and hate🤌😚😈
he said melty gamers thought they not getting command grabbed
You kinda built, LK
Lk one of the nyc gods
NYC being one of the places that hated on him the hardest.
Ain’t he from Jersey?
@@personontheinternet2164 Yeap, thats exactly why.
They hated on Jersey players until they started to pull big ass results, especially in GG
LK is my goat, well other than Knowkami, but he’s been gone for a cool minute
