The most common way for a bs escape is a double backstab where you pressed r1 slightly later than your opponent, in this case you can i frame the damage or even block it. It also works with attacks like here with the dagger - if you get damage in at the right moment you'll be able to escape
Is there a way to know when the backstabs are going to happen at the same time? From my understanding it happens when you press to bs after they do and it lets you roll to avoid the damage while they’re still in animation. Is there any control in how that works against a BS fisher if I try to counter bs?
It's not reliable but you can press r1 slightly later than you're used to and might be able to escape the backstab this way to punish it. Personally I don't plan to do it, still happens some times. With more latency between you and your opponent it will happen far more frequently tho
@@MrMashroom Awesome thanks! One last question. I have a lv92 chaos zwei build and I’m thinking to bring it to meta level once I get good enough. I’m thinking of bkga or potentially a great club. If I go the club route, do you recommend chaos or crystal? Most club builds I see seem to use crystal but I’m not quite sure how it works. From what I read crystal raises base damage and scales 88% with str. Is crystal just better at maxed weapons and base stats for them at higher level than chaos?
@@StoicScape219 yeah especially for the great club crystal (or even the normal +15 path) is better because it heavily relies on its scaling which would be gone with chaos. Chaos is only good if you plan to use great club one handed with 28 str or two handed with 19 str, but nobody does that, most of the time two handing with 28 str is the way to go, higher if you want to use it more effectively with 1 hand
@@MrMashroom Awesome thank you! Also crystal weapons break and they can’t be repaired it seems. Do you just keep a stack of a certain weapon or is there a workaround?
@@StoicScape219 people just keep stacks, I don't use crystal weapons very often, I'm too lazy to upgrade or duplicate like 20 of them so my main weapons are usually chaos infused or with the standard upgrade path
I have been encountering some players that have the straghtsword moveset on ultras/greatswords/halberds recently. Are they cheating or using some kind of exploit or mod or whats going on?
They aren't doing this on purpose, it's a visual glitch on your end, they don't even know it looks this way. It's annoying and disappears when they toggle. The weapon doesn't swing faster, it's just hard to read when the hit connects "thanks" to the different visuals
I was skiing last week and didn't play much until this weekend where I put some hours into the game again. And then I hardly play at "US times" because I either sleep, work out or work when guys like psycbn or banana are on. It's easier for me to catch some japanese players (or european of course). But yeah, we'll meet each other eventually 😁
Tons of great clips man. Personally, I can't stand runners. I can understand the hosts but an invader running through the entire level just to get a heal off? Get the hell out of here.
You're right of course, a gravelord can do whatever it takes to survive but random invaders? The opponent here however usually fights without running, don't know why he chose it this time, probably the demon spear which I can kinda understand
Getting a double bs that throws you off the cliff is a classic moment too
I even got a clip of it but I'll save it for later. There are many more "moments" in fact, I just threw clips of some together
@@MrMashroom for sure, just this unlucky double bs cliff death always pisses me off lol
12:49 That fight on number 9 😆 Too good 🤣
Lol 😂 I hope I never have to play that passive again
i pop a humanity and sippin da estus in that titanite tonka truck
all these broke boys tryna gank me well dat wog gon make em back up
I like the music you put in the video, it's more entertaining to watch, greetings
I'm glad you like it! I always have fun editing it this way
Gynamu not being clipped for the passive players segment is a war crime. He will backpedlal for eternity 😂
Some say he still backpedals
Haven't seen him in months, but yeah he would be the perfect example 😅 starclub will do tho 😂
666 sub, good luck man, what a number
Thanks man yeah lol
In moment 4, how did you escape from that backstab? Bro you are so good at bating backstab fishers teach me ur ways

And for the bating part: it's fun as hell, but I worked on it for years and still f up 😂 (different latencies, just bad timing,...)

Not really 10 moments, more like 10 situations with 1 or more clips attached to it, but oh well.
