i absolutely LOVE how you play. instead of punishing people for mistakes, you punish them for playing how theyre meant to. you punish both aggression and cowardice, making for an extremely effective build.
Yeah thats the main reason I have set my permanent residence to A rank. S is for folk who wants to win, not experiment or innovate. Thats why if you want to play ranked more casually, I suggest that you avoid start of a season and end of a season when you are more likely encounter them.
It's AC that relies on overwhelming opponents in Ocellus range with high defense and firepower without relying that much on pilot skill. An easy example is the tank with gatling gun and cannon that people like to use in PvE content. Some people call it "autopilot" build because you don't need to play well to make it effective. Just AB > shoot > and win. Most of the top-tier builds in current meta are this kind of build. As you can see in this video, both of my opponents (especially the second one) try to get into Ocellus range to stagger me and finish me off with melee weapons.
Stat checking is a nice and polite way to put it, and this "stat check" builds push people to go heavier and heavier, more stat dense only to endure the harassment some weapons can inflict upon you. There is no individuality, no creativity, no build distinction. Everyone ends up looking and playing the same just because X part is best in slot. For context, if we take fighting games like Tekken for exampe, if i pick Kuma which is a bear and you pick Jin which is a japanese karate guy, we have equal chances of defeating each other because it will narrow down to who played their character/build better. In the context of armored core, if I pick Kuma which is a bear and you pick Jin who is just a guy from japan, you will most likely lose cause have you seen wtf a bear can do to a human? Its the same for stat dense/stat check builds. Some builds (like mine which i main LW) will always start with a disadvantage due to the logic i described above. Everyone ends up playing the bear cause it shreds humans. You could argue that speed is the armor of lightweights, but hard lock would like to have a word. Maximum depression if you start thinking about it 😞
@@FeelGood-AC I'm thinking about it replacing vvc. You still get to punish landings but you also get to use the normal shot The stagger punish is much larger too since you get 2 charges + an extension
yo fromsoft I know your still watching if someone is assault boosting at you and you kick them in response that should shut off their booster for like 4 seconds that is all.
Ah the feels when you reach S. Gratifying when you make it, but living in it is a whole different feel XD

I love how these videos are a show of skill and not just zimmer stagger then punish
Great video!
your videos are great pls keep making them
Great emblem Raven. Berlioz Lives on 😎
I hear AC4 music. I like. Im a simple Raven 😂
Panther went in my sci-fi gaming playlist. The 4-on-1 in Hard Mode is the highlight fight in AC4.
@@Schpoonman your a true Raven for remembering that fight. The hardest mission ever 😂 🐦⬛
Easily my most favorite AC pilot to watch. FeelGud
Some good matches! I got to A-rank and I'm already kind of feeling it. I'm not looking forward to S. I may need to revise my build.
Soon as a left c to b all I saw was light ducket builds like no other builds it’s a plague
No lies detected. I’m new to this game and seems some just want to mimic others. Nice gaming tho and the AC community is pretty chill.
For real man, literally go down from 1500 to 1268 by the time I reached S rank this season so i guess i'll wait for another reset
I'm also drop to 1400.
I just climb back up to 1500 a few days ago.
This patch meta isn't good for my build (T . T)
Another great video. Showcasing the adaptability of the pilot . But man dual ducketts and dual etsujins still trumps overs shield based builds

What does the term "stat checked" mean in terms of ac6 ranked?
Probably meta builds.
Like hmmer rats, zimms shield, etsujins, laser swap, lcb tanks and for this current patch duckets.
AC6 has a lot of design choices that lend Ws not to the better pilot but to the player who uses the heaviest parts and hardest-hitting guns.
It's AC that relies on overwhelming opponents in Ocellus range with high defense and firepower without relying that much on pilot skill. An easy example is the tank with gatling gun and cannon that people like to use in PvE content.

Spot on explanation. Dont show this to the ducketts abusers you mightnhet hate haha 😂@@Schpoonman
@@FeelGood-AC thanks for explaining that. I myself win a fair amount but don't play meta builds so I've never heard that term before

It looks like the new laser shotgun would fit well into what you're doing here
I had tested it before discoh-sama
LS damage output is around LRA level and bad at dealing with HW.
It playable but not that good

I shared it with my master Verde.C
We will test it when we free
I use a similar build except that i have lower health
