20:12 I had to confirm that I wasn't crazy about this being an edited Elesa design... Elesa sure as hell doesn't have her boobs out like that normally 💀And more, for damn sure lol
Been running 1.4 for the past few months, and it's crazy just how much this game has changed from 1.2, and not necessarily in a good way. It kinda feels like compared to Drayano's style of balancing, which is giving the player a bunch of strong tools to fight back against all the AI's BS, Aphex ended up removing any tools that are remotely strong like gems or choice items. Because of that, you get situations where you're fighting against Timid Life Orb Sheer Force Nidoking with perfect coverage, while your best Water move at that point is Bubble Beam. It ends up turning a lot of major fights in the game into box checks where you abuse glitches like ability storage, or use the few broken mons like Medicham and Volcarona that are allowed to be good and not nerfed into the ground like Mismagius or Infernape (seriously, it doesn't get Close Combat until Level 70 now).
Yea I’ve spoken about it a lot: the new changes really hurt the game. It’s just completely different balance wise nowadays and the drastic changes are uncalled for imo
Yeah I just started playing the game today I am running 1.4.1 and I was shock when I see youtubers fighting different teams I think on my version Cheren only has like 4 or 5 pokemon not 6. I thought I was running a verison out of date.
8:19 I got completely shocked and this video gained 200% of my attention when I suddenly heard Pokémon Reborn’s Champion Theme begin playing. Thanks for playing it :)
Yeah this rom is insane, you basically need a fire type (i play regular no nuzlock or challenge to have fun.) Or not pick Snivy and get some weak encounter for the double battle early on (because if you go in blind you don’t know what spawns there). So if you’re like me who just wants to always catch 6 pokemon for the game and has a specific team in mind, and picked snivy. Yeah you need servine before the first gym. I had Snivy and riolu, both get rolled by bug/poison types
Should note this is also the older version of the game which has a harder early game than the current one. Roxy is considerably nerfed since her Golbat gets replaced by qwilfish anf her koffing gets thunderbolt replaced by poison gas. The fight is still hard, but one Drxx played is very frustrating because some runs are instantly dead from getting bad encounters.
Gen 4 AI can also choose Trick Room over a kill👀There is a Rhyperior in Sterling Silver that consistently did it vs my Glaceon when I tested. For some reason it never did that to my other Pokemon though
The 🐐 has returned to bless us with a new video(while utilizing the Jan strat of uploading exactly at the end of the month). Typhlosion dying on the E4 was such a shame, what a great pokemon. Also, as someone has mentioned alredy in the comments, that Elesa sprite made me think I was experiencing some sort of mandela effect, because I was 100% sure that her boobs were not visible in the official artwork 😃. Gotta love Stephin for being a man of culture.
@@Drxxyt I know, a bunch of poor fundamental changes in my opinion. I discussed this with drayano and he said he wanted to do something unique with redux, and that is what he did I suppose. The game is very much unique and a great challange none the less.
Ngl, even playing the game normally, Blaze Black 2 Redux took me so long to finally beat the champion. The fight between Steven and Wallace in the post-game took me 5 tries.
It is a tad unfortunate when the optimal strat is just to pp stall something as it is quite boring even if it does take good prep to realize it is a safe option
I'm just playing blind through this game casually as bw2 was an amazing game not looking up sets or calcing just gaming ... and bro im STRUGGLING. I was wondering whether it was even feasible to nuzlock this resetting at Roxie (resetting fights unltil i find a deathless route) but turns out im playing without EVs .. so yeah. This game is peak pokemon though. What an amazing hack.
Question at 11:32 why is the team shown different from the team on the document during the Burgh fight? Like on the first one shown Yanmega does not have Tailwind Masquerain does but in the document during the fight Yanmega has Tailwind? Parts of both are correct like the first one shown has Yanmega learning detect and it used detect. Masquerain has Giga Drain but on the second one it does not. Vespiquen has Air slash in the first but in the second it has Acrobatics.
Been playing the non redux version and was really enjoying it but got annoyed by my servine/serperior not getting the dragon typing like it's supposed to.
I love how people say "it's easy to beat Normal Mode deathless", yet I had plenty of deaths trying not only to get to Cheren (the 2 trainers in his gym) but also beating him. His Munchlax has an Eviolite, Work Up and Flail. 😡 I still say it's impossible to beat Volt White 2 Redux as a hardcore nuzlocke deathless.
I've always wondered if drayano increased the enemy crit rate because my luck is as I've been crit 3 times in a row by a non supermarket mon multiple times in one run
Watched the edited stream vods like two years ago when I first found your channel, can’t wait to see the edited video! Here’s hoping you dodge that crit on Hydreigon…
It's insane to see how much this locke has changed from 1.2 to 1.4 Some fights are easier and Oshawott got giga buffed thanks to Razor Shell, but now you have so many strats like pre damage and gems that just don't work in 1.4 since you get pre healed before gym leaders (except Hoenn) and don't have access to gems
yeah its really upsetting to me how much the game changed in future patches. Obv im not gonna go back and redo just because theres a new patch. Just disapointed that theres extremely little consistency. No gems is like the biggest balance change of all time
@@slicklol I would argue early game is considerably easier but late game is way harder in 1.4 No Cobalion or Terrakion, and no gems is the biggest thing in regard to that Skyla's big threats are her lead in 1.2, which makes it easier, and Drayden being a double battle in 1.4 makes him significantly harder to plan for. Several pokemon getting noticeably nerfed didn't help as well, Venusaur being a huge sore thumb there.
@@Drxxyt ay man incredible to have you answer so quick. big fan of your work. but im looking for the track at around 56:15, it seems seems not "end of the line" but something else
13:48 if the next level cap is the same as the previous, are these Pokémon leveling up to level 30 during the previous level cap be against the rules? To be clear, you aren’t breaking BURGH’S level cap, but COLRESS’ level cap because your Pokémon are level 30 before fighting him. I guess it can be explained away as “the over leveled Pokémon are legal for the rest of the fight they over leveled for”
@@Drxxyt gotcha, just wanted to make sure because the level caps being the same (let alone this close) causes some weird stuff like this and I think it's something that is interesting to think about for other runs. For most roms this would be too lenient on accidentally overleveling, but for this it seems completely natural
How has Drew not broken his knuckles
nah, bro’s got hella iron hands
Iron fist ability
Drxx’s been avoiding Ferrothorn so much he’s got protective pads
I edged so hard making this
You cooked so hard with the editing

Yoooo watching this run was dope ,great gameplay man 🙌🏾🙌🏾
20:12 elesa lookin a bit different
Yeah looking kinda......
You set off my Reborn flashbacks a few too many times this run…
So now I wanna see how you tackle a Reborn nuzlocke
This is high key the best nuzlocke content ive seen in a while
2:45 duuude wheres this map from? Looks dope. Also so hyped for the rest of the vid, gonna be another banger.

Am I dumb or were level caps not followed(35:37 for example, cap is 58, mons are 63)

@@Drxxyt Its ok just asking why there were some differences.
4:25 I‘m confused by where he got the Audino? Magnemite covers the Complex encounter, and the city doesn’t have any grass to get one
in bb2 redux the virbank complex is divided, the part before entering that has some grass is another different route
We got the drxx redux video before gta 6
