This is really impressive. I especially liked the fast thinking with the wire bug movement. That back and forth air doge to avoid getting hit was really phenomenal.
Balls of steel. I am having panic attacks every 5 seconds while fighting him, which leads to many mistakes and eventually carting. %)). You, sir, are a legend.
Nice to see great Swaxe Players, the crab axe is such a good axe, it's a beast with PSB jewel, you could try a run with lucent armor and wire step, it's fun and DMG is decent
Bro, TA rules are like 10 times more fun to watch than Freestyle speed runs, the problem whit free style its that every monster turns into a punching bag because 2 dogs whit para + traps are extremely OP.
I thought I was seeing things with the thumbnail like am I on the right channel? 🤣 Great run. The way you stayed close to the wall at the beginning, was that intentional? I couldn't see a thing with those dark souls camera angles but you made it work somehow👏🏾👏🏾
Great run, always love watching your stuff! I'd like to ask, as someone still unfamiliar with all the strats for these, is there any reason you used the wyvern ride to take him to the pillar area of the castle instead just using the starburst bugs for extra damage?
Ty! I have not, I need the sharpness on crab and slot and affinity augment, so I can get this set with attack 4 mail of hellfire 2 chain crit 1 and still have 100% crit. I think this is the best set up atm
Hi :). I've noticed you use a lot of power phial switch axes in your speed runs, do these outperform elemental phials by a lot or is it persoanl preferance?
It is very important, however it is very high skill cost in a lot of situations so most of the time it's better to run razor sharp / master's touch rather than investing 3 handicraft 3 protective polish, and tbh protective polish is only good for ZSD spam or freestyle

1,000 hour grind for the run
9,000 hour grind for the thumbnail
Damn the on the fly thinking with the wirebug movement is incredible. Such an optimized run
and the topple with hellfire was phenomenal
Oh hell yeah you know it's good when the thumbnail is considerably worse
:(

I thought I was watching a Juzzi speedrun, lmao. Didn't expect a crossover between the kings of swax.
Love your content kage I'm glad your channel is growing you deserve it

Damn this opening is way better than the old ‘EBC on the charge’s first hit box’. Gonna go practice this now.

the issue with TA is that only a handful of matchups are fun, most matchups get reduced to blood rite ZSD
@@Kage02 did u consider using more weapons ? Like hammer or insect glaive ?
@@Ersb99 I could, but I enjoy swax the most and I only wanna optimize with this weapon
Very cool WR.(thanks for a archive.)
Thumbnail sponsored by Juzzi (not sure tbh but good run nonetheless)

It was intentional yes, so I can counter the dive and keep DPSing him
Switch Axe is the new Rise Longsword of Sunbreak!
Amazing!! 🔥🔥

I need the 3rd wirebug, and starburst is banned in TA
Great run 💪 happy hunting all ! ⚔️
I just recently got back into this game like a week ago. I just took this monster down. Man this thing is crazy!!
Kage is the closest swagaxe has to longsword's Peppo! He's that good!
nice run, gg
Inspirational.
Super GG 😍
Amazing run! How do you know when to use ZSD instead of burst counter or some other combo?
crazy run cage! ever thought of doing a 4p scorned?
Its too much cope
Nice job bro, you try thunder axes like zino/shredder?
Ty! I have not, I need the sharpness on crab and slot and affinity augment, so I can get this set with attack 4 mail of hellfire 2 chain crit 1 and still have 100% crit. I think this is the best set up atm
Phenomenal run! I assume you went with Mail of Hellfire because the health drain from Dereliction was too dangerous here?
Yeah and I only get like 5 more raw from dereliction
Nice to know if you’re close to his rights leg when he does the bite attack it won’t hit
Hi :). I've noticed you use a lot of power phial switch axes in your speed runs, do these outperform elemental phials by a lot or is it persoanl preferance?
They usually outperform ele phial
How important is purple sharpness?
It is very important, however it is very high skill cost in a lot of situations so most of the time it's better to run razor sharp / master's touch rather than investing 3 handicraft 3 protective polish, and tbh protective polish is only good for ZSD spam or freestyle
Why not go crit eye 7? Curious
Bloodlust + affinity augment
ele really better than grinder s raw??
Grinder s is a meme tbh
Switch skills?
