Add one tip as ageislash player pls don't use your unite in any small fight and if you can save for Objecetive secure move his unite one of the most underrated secure move.
It depends on the situation, if ur team or enemy team is ripping then you might save your unite otherwise its best to use it in most of the fights cause it comes really fast
The damage got capped against wild pokemon & I disagree because of that. It's really hard to find situations where you would want to use it due to the thin hitbox, but if you can execute someone in a teamfight with it, you get momentum to continue picking off others (and due to all the bonuses you get from it). If you just save it for the execute on Rayquaza, not only is there a delay on it (so you'll end up missing the secure), but i don't find the damage all that impressive myself. Would be better to just use a series of boosted attacks after Sacred Sword to get the last hit on Ray from my experiences. And, you're down a tool for a teamfight if you do this. Maybe this would work as a last resort to steal Ray where it's otherwise unsafe and there's no other option to win the game, if anything.
came upon your channel through someone who recommended you on reddit! your explanations of actual gameplay and decision making are very helpful, and imo are much more valuable than just discussing the same old item and emblem setups over and over, the way most other content creators do.
As an Aegislash main this video is really great! Covers nearly everything I think a good sword player would need. That being said I noticed that you tend to use your Unite move on high HP targets which makes it less effective. Regardless, keep up the good work
@@UniteClimbing I don't blame you for this at all, Aegislash's unite is one of the hardest to use IMO because of its conditional effects and thin hitbox. Sometimes it's fine to just use it even if it doesn't kill someone just to get the Unite move benefits (shield and attack bonuses really) & it mitigates a whiff pretty well if you use it not just to execute a target
Since your first eagislash video (and consequentially, your first ever as well) i've been challenging myself to play some harder pokemon Like greninja and Espeed lucario. The payoff has been HUGE, not only my winrate of 60% went up to almost 70%! But by far i've picked up Aegislash again, just like Dodrio i've been having a blast with the game again. Aegislash for me hits that sweet spot of high risk high reward, these video with tips are incredile dude, keep it up! quick edit; I've been tryng Aegislash with Drain crown, seems a bit overkill on healing but it feels quite not not having the pressure of stacking
Wow!!! Great playing now I'm understanding how to play with slash!!! At first I really didn't understand because I'm a brave heart, I tend to take the fight to opponents a Lil too much. This video is the reassurance I need thank u bro Peace. 👑⚔️💪🏾💯
I know that you probably don't take video requests, but could you possibly do a Mew guide? There aren't any up to date ones or guides that talk about which moves to use in which situations.
as a tip for aegislash, you want to run scope+razor over attack weight. You already have really high base attack, and your moves don't scale well with the weight. You want to be critting as often as you can in order to do the most damage. Also you can use your boosted as a mobility option to hit farm for escape
Disagree bro. I've done the maths. Weight also encourages early lvl with score exp and pressuring enemies early. You do more damage even with 2-3 stacks on aegi (because of his 7% damage). Crit is also inconsistent damage as his crit rate is pretty low compared to the cinders and dragapults etc
Hi man, I really love your videos. They are sufficiently elaborate, and it helps me understand the small things that needs to be kept right. I currently run aegislash as my main go to and indeed learned from you. Keep it up! Will always be waiting for your next videos Would love to see a video about absol please :))
@@UniteClimbing Glad to hear that. Regardless, keep pumping up the good juice. I'm also quite keen to know about good team compositions. I feel that many rookies including myself, fail to form good complementary duos on each lane. This would be a fun one too
Very informational, before the last nerf to Aegislash I have been playing with him too aggressively, being greedy and not having shield form up at all times, and so I didn't do very well with him. I guess it's worth trying again.
@@UniteClimbing Yes, shield form is still amazing. Blocks a lot of damage and heals a lot, and also prevents CC on activation iirc. It is just that his offensive power with Sacred Sword is noticeably weaker now.
Thanks a lot for the tips and guidance in this vid. I'm a beginner at Aegislash and am practicing it a lot in Standard matches..and still need more practice but hopefully in time will bring it into Ranked
I feel it's more to do with decision making in the current meta with Aegislash.. initially I used to jump in but now being more cautious and thoughtful in making the calls.. but yeah it's not as easy but I understand why it's an expert level of competence.. it needs practice, practice and more. Thanks for your wishes!!
Still been trying to learn extreme speed Lucario but god dam maybe its not the meta for him, CC + full heal nerf has made it hard to keep chaining if the enemy has enough CC. Maybe I shoulda tried Aegislash instead haha, looks OP even with the few misplays you did.
Thanks bro i just started pokemon unite as bought the switch for zelda :D I played league of legends a lot and so far glacion is my 1st pokemon i got and am happy as i got a good attacker and was looking for some fun all rounder and aegislash is just so fun to play thank you for the guide it helped a lot
@@xinlou6707 Lapras is great! I really like Slowbro with Surf/Amnesia - great unite move and sustain. I also really like supporters though. They heal and tank decently. Clefable and Blissey are amazing
Honestly after watching some of your aegis and gren videos I've been doing fantastic in solo q ranked!one request tho,can you make a guide on urshifu please?alot of people just straight up don't realise what kind of insane secure they have of on there wicked blow and don't realise how bad they are at using the boosted you get per skill,I just need good random urshifus and pikachus,but you already made one on oikachu
Thanks bro! I'm glad to here. I'm working on Urshifu, but I currently kinda suck with him. I'm working on my positioning and limit testing, the guide will come 🙌
I don't think rapid fire is needed because his basics dash, and are very quick as is. Scope lens is a decent item, bit you'd get much more value from a muscle band (refer to point 5, and scale this with the muscle band passive)
I haven't looked at the new pokemon yet - but assuming shell armour negates crits. Aegislash doesn't do a big chunk of critting. The pure shred on the 7% damage of their Max hp makes him amazing against any defender, ever!
Is sacred sword better than shadow claw personally i find that sacred sword takes more time to connect while shadow claw gives u less casting time and and stun quicker
100% yes. The dive is great, area of effect is big. It also debuffs defence by 25% and increases your attack stat by 50 for 3 seconds (so the boosted autos rip heaps of damage).
A lot of people say yes but I have always done just fine with either. Both have their good qualities. But both need to be built differently as far as items.
You can replace with muscle band, as this compliments his extra 7% damage on basics. You can safely stack though with the x speed and shadow sneak (in my opinion). If you press b with a boosted auto, you can dash towards the farm (as an escape route)
Don't ever use aeos cookie on aegislash. The way aegislash works, the higher your attack power the more you're gonna heal yourself in shield form. Using any sort of defensive item is actually kind of hindering your overall character. Build damage. Attack power. You'll have better survival that way
Hmm, yes but no. I think focus band is essential (for early phasing, but also general tanking end game). The aeos cookie gives a big hp buff, and being fully stack at lvl 7, you are insanely huge. But it dies off late game as the other stat's scale and your hp cookie is fixed. There are better items, but it isn't bad. Just learn to play in the correct form (sword or shield) and you won't need an item to help out
Aegislash does have the worst early game. He’s paper thin and dies way too fast. I had a game where I had all my stacks on sword extremely early and still got one shot consistently by a stun. This character is just trash. No amount of mastery can change that he just gets outclassed by every character in the game. Just play a defender or a different all rounder useless fucking character.
Add one tip as ageislash player pls don't use your unite in any small fight and if you can save for Objecetive secure move his unite one of the most underrated secure move.
I kinda agree and disagree to this. It's a good general rule for 95% of people!!

I do recommend that using Aegislash's unite in Rayquaza to killsteal this is one of the best things I learned using Aegislash

Even the non aegislash specific advice is brilliant. Late game patience is vital.

That is so awesome 😍 thanks for letting me know! Drain Crown, I've actually never considered it. I'll have a look tonight and see how I like it!
THIS IS THE QUALITY. WE NEEDED. WELL DONE.

I still think Aegi is very powerful right now! (Unlike Tsareena)
@@UniteClimbing Yes, shield form is still amazing. Blocks a lot of damage and heals a lot, and also prevents CC on activation iirc. It is just that his offensive power with Sacred Sword is noticeably weaker now.

Awesome! Good luck mate. The current meta makes it very rough to use Aegislash. But is still a very strong pick

Aegislash is my preferred pick. But a well played Lucario into a few squishy pokemon is undefeatable
I love your videos. Amazing bro. Keep it up❤️
Thank you so much 😀

Awesome and welcome!! Happy to help along the way
@@UniteClimbing i'd love if u could recommend me a tank cuz i was thinking about Lapras
@@xinlou6707 Lapras is great! I really like Slowbro with Surf/Amnesia - great unite move and sustain.
I also really like supporters though. They heal and tank decently. Clefable and Blissey are amazing
Bro noice explanation egislash is my favourite pokemon
Same here
Should I buy Aegislash or save up for other Pokemons
Buy and learn!
amazing video, thanks for the guide
No worries 😍I hope it is helpful!
Underrated tuber

How you change form? looks like im always in def mode
Your skills (after level 7)
I need to watch this video like 100 times. I want to start using the sword ⚔️ ❤️❤️❤️
I even hyped myself up to play Aegislash after reviewing this!
Would drain crown work with him? If his boosted basic are his way of making damage maybe the chunk of life steal is better?
I think you will get more value using other items, and playing mostly in your shield form if you're in a big fight
Would a rapid fire scarf be advisable? Furthermore, Aegislash does crit a lot so wouldn’t a scope lens also contribute to its kit?
I don't think rapid fire is needed because his basics dash, and are very quick as is. Scope lens is a decent item, bit you'd get much more value from a muscle band (refer to point 5, and scale this with the muscle band passive)
Thanks for the guide
My pleasure 😍
What do you think about Lapras coming to the game? I think it's a tank that counters aegislash hardly cuz it's ability shell armor
I haven't looked at the new pokemon yet - but assuming shell armour negates crits. Aegislash doesn't do a big chunk of critting. The pure shred on the 7% damage of their Max hp makes him amazing against any defender, ever!
@@UniteClimbing actually it's ability reduce the percentage damage that is inflicted to him

A lot of people say yes but I have always done just fine with either. Both have their good qualities. But both need to be built differently as far as items.
I don’t like atk weight on sword. Better to play early safe untill you get 7 and focus on farm. Once you’re aegislash you are already powerful enough.
You can replace with muscle band, as this compliments his extra 7% damage on basics. You can safely stack though with the x speed and shadow sneak (in my opinion).
If you press b with a boosted auto, you can dash towards the farm (as an escape route)
Can you make a video on how to team fight at the endgame ray fight?
Keep your eyes on this space - it is coming!
Zoroark Or sableye tuto pls btw nice tips
Coming soon!!
Time for some shing shing shing 🗡️
We love Aegislash here. One of the best
Don't ever use aeos cookie on aegislash. The way aegislash works, the higher your attack power the more you're gonna heal yourself in shield form. Using any sort of defensive item is actually kind of hindering your overall character. Build damage. Attack power. You'll have better survival that way

Can you do Sableye?
Eventually... it is on my to do list but not for a little while
Aegislash does have the worst early game. He’s paper thin and dies way too fast. I had a game where I had all my stacks on sword extremely early and still got one shot consistently by a stun. This character is just trash. No amount of mastery can change that he just gets outclassed by every character in the game. Just play a defender or a different all rounder useless fucking character.
Welcome rage tv! It takes a while to learn the early game, gotta be patient but I don't think it's 'bad'
Hope you get out of expert soon timmy!
