I like Sajam's character development from "If you don't know the game, don't bet," to "'I don't know third strike I can't keep getting lucky' Just make the call."
Sajam in episode 1: I can't stress this enough, if you DON'T KNOW the game then DON'T BET. Sajam in episode 6: Why are you stressing, just make the bet!
I want everyone to look at the combo at 7:55 as the reason new people get into fighting games. It's not simplified mechanics. It's not autocombos. It's sentences like "I did a kick, wallbounced him 4 times, and then I pulled out a gun"
people were asking in chat when this was live, so: my cat's name is Sammy (named after the Metroid character) and she's 11 years old. not every clip I get is ambiguous enough for WIK but I'll try to load the dice and send in more next month
Caught it live, it's a damn riot! Let no one say Sajam is not one of the best entertainers on Twitch. Also, went from double my money, to close to zero, to double like twice over. He's not lying when he says bet low.
Showing the gasp on that Persona clip would've just shown everyone the "Fatal Counter" right behind the attack, would've been the most free bet that's ever been on this series
I think the best part about the potemkin clip in around 23:49 is that if he didn't super and just fucking breathed on him he would have gotten the wallbreak and it would have killed, this was literally the only option that would hit that wouldn't kill in that scenario.
Yeah, I honestly don't know when i've been as triggered as I was because of the heavenly buster choice. Didn't follow live but it was the only Guilty gear clip that i got wrong and when Nagoriyuki got stuck on the wall I was hyped like, yes got it right, damn i'm good. Then I see Heavenly potemkin buster : | It's not gonna kill is it... Great clip though
Hearing Sajam call my combo “out of control” is all I need tbh. I was trying to land that for hours and I was so happy I landed it. I-no was super dead but I’m so happy I got a bit of recognition. 💙💙💙💙
It’s a vampire thing-him and Slayer are so absurdly strong that they never take fights seriously, so when they lose they always just kind of sit down and shrug it off like nbd
The pot combo at 23 min is REALLY suboptimal, And there are a dozen ways pot could have killed. I saw the starter and immediately said "he SHOULD kill, my 10th floor pot could kill there," but then I panicked as he HPBed instead of HK. So I tested the exact situation at 41.5% on nago. If he had ended the combo with heat knuckle with wall break he would have killed instead of HPB for only the 50 meter (179 vs 172). HPB is usually worse than wall break in my experience. The other super as an ender would have killed too, even that high. Even just counter hit c.S 2H HPB would have killed (174 vs 172). I'm just watching the vod and I still feel a little robbed on that one. Love the show tho, keep it up Sajam.
Sajam i wanted to pop in and say that me and a friend have been doing Will It Kill together over discord, and keeping a full running total over all the episodes. its been a blast. weve actually tied multiple times after past episodes, and are currently tied as of Ep 5 at 47/86. Theres actually 87 will it kills in episode 1-5, buuut, me and my friend both know the infamous Ash KoF13 clip well so we decided to just not bet lmao. Imma report back in once we can hang to watch episode 6 to let ya know how ass we did
I think it's really great that you allow these filthy gambling addicts a place to gamble and get their fix in a way that doesn't cause them to lose their house or anything. Truly a champion of the people.
On that Potemkin vs Nago clip I was 100% confident on my vote until 23:36 happened. As soon as the Pot did HPB I went "wait, no, that's not gonna kill, you should have broken the wall instead aaaaaaaaaah"
With every episode of this I am increasingly surprised by the amount of comedic value there is in pausing after ONE hit in a fighting game and asking if the victim is going to be dead at the end of it
I saw moo playing playing shadow mitsuru and i was like "I remember this video. Yes every time.". And it's a very big kick. "guilty gear xrd is a """""""low damage game"""""""". pulls down webcam to reveal slayer's smug face.
I love this show. By the way, the Karnak clip: there's indeed a mechanic that breaks an opponent's accessory and causes stun by hitting them in a certain way (I think it's called weak point system).
In Double Dragon, there are 2 kinds of stun. The standing stun and the grounded stun. When a character is ground stunned, they can only be hit with a pursuit attack (universal to every character). And throws can stun, and they pretty much always cause ground stun. So, what Abobo did there was to cause a ground stun from his command grab, and then he did his Earthquake super. Normally, it's an earthquake kind of move, meaning you have to crouch or you'll get hit. But, in ground stun, it's the only super in the game, as far as I know, that also acts as an OTG. So, command grab stun into OTG super.
You know what's funny, I think there are more clips in Sajam's will it kill where Slayer does NOT kill than clips where he does kill. But it still feels like he always will. Might be somewhat influenced by personal experience playing against him in Xrd, though.
23:39 you know when I saw this, the first thing that came into my head was "Man what if pots super just got scaled into hell and it somehow didn't kill?" boy, look how that turned out huh?
I mean, what he did wasn’t optimal. There a simple heat knuckle would have crushed Nago’s guts 4 since it’s a multi hitting, AND it would have broke the wall.
I saw the Double Dragon Clip and went "Yep this kills" from what I remember Abobo get's more damage on the throw if you keep inputting 360's and since it stunned his Super connected from full screen
I'm honestly peeved at the second potemkin clip, it wasn't optimal since heat knuckle would've killed where HPB didnt because of the lack of wall break
I knew the pot player, I knew immediately that the second pot wouldnt kill the SECOND he went for HPB. The scaling is atrocious in that exact situation, found gotta do a wall splat there
In the vast majority of cases the best strategy, I've found, is to determine what Sajam is implicitly trying to convey. Then bet on the opposite of that. He can't help himself, he's always trying to implicitly mislead you, however lightly.
All I know about Double Dragon is that there's a beat em up crossover with Battletoads that I used to play as a kid on some sort of bootleg emulator disc for SNES games for PS2
Everyone forgot the two golden rules.
a. If it’s kusoge it’ll kill and
b. Every game is kusoge
This show made me realize I was a gambler in my past life. And a DAMN good one, 14-4 baby.
Hellllll yeah
Damn he's good
Johnny would be proud.

on the same token stuff like this is what turns me away from a lot of fighting games (generally anime, but also older SFs, etc)
Honestly Persona 4 Ultimax is my favorite fighting game.
@@Awkwerp yeah this went from crazy, to crazier to dude I don't even know. Doesn't even look like a real game lol.

never stop sending in sammy clips
Thank you very much, good sir
@@doedipus ruclips.net/video/XyNlqQId-nk/видео.html here I found you a cat compilation
I just wanna know what that combo was
Let's goooo I made it in! Thank you so much for including my clips in this month's episode. I'll submit some good stuff for the next one too :>
MOOPOKE VICTORY. THANK YOU BRUH,
I've got tons of arcade footage of Persona, I got your back
I saw that moopoke clip and was just "oh this is gonna kill"
Congrats Miwpy
Saw it was you and I thought "oh they dead lol"
25:03 the Zato player’s input history lmao
It's even better that they mashed during the super, mans just hoping in vain for Buddha to drop a golden thread for him
I was imagining the sweating speedrunner when I noticed that
man decided to practice through the fire and the flames whilst he was getting bodied. multitask god
your roboky is wack
@@SwansingerLJG banned
when sajam moved his camera to show crocs n socks, my resolve only got stronger.
I really need to catch this live one of these months
Caught it live, it's a damn riot! Let no one say Sajam is not one of the best entertainers on Twitch. Also, went from double my money, to close to zero, to double like twice over. He's not lying when he says bet low.
@@noahboddie3482 bro I went through so many highs and lows just to end up with just about as much as I started.
@@pl412 the house always fucking wins man never let anyone tell you otherwise
if you see any shadow characters in persona get any hit in just send it.
If I've learned anything watching Moopoke clips it's that shadow character = everything becomes a tod.
Will It Kill 5 had a shadow character not kill though... but I guess it's Grover, so that's why.
It's not kof if sajam doesn't pause after the first hit
Imagine looking at a Moopoke or Crocs'n'Socks clip and voting no lmao
XD
Especially if the character is a Shadow Character. the only thing you need to know is can they do Shadow Frenzy? If so,then yes it kills
@@alexrayne2875 You don’t even have to know shit about P4A, I don’t know shit and won every round cuz it’s a Moopoke clip, of course it’s killing
@@NeoBoneGirl Facts lol
@@alexrayne2875 I watch Moopoke

He could have also just used the other super I think
@@mrclean2224 Yeah and it would have broke the wall and killed
Yeah, I honestly don't know when i've been as triggered as I was because of the heavenly buster choice.

Wow, I didn’t know that. I don’t know anything about Guilty Gear so I assumed he had no health as Potemkin comboed into his Super.
@@zxadvent19 ye that's just how scaling is in this game
Hearing Sajam call my combo “out of control” is all I need tbh. I was trying to land that for hours and I was so happy I landed it. I-no was super dead but I’m so happy I got a bit of recognition. 💙💙💙💙
I've lost games fishing (heh) for that combo lol its so cool
"Can someone explain what happened?"
It's Persona. Fatal counters, baby.
He was cursed or whatever too I think. That's more damage
@@red6775 He was inflicted with Fear. Fear makes every hit on you a Fatal Counter. Also it prevents you from teching throws
Fear!
*semi incoherent screaming*
Judgement has come for you!
"4:41 I don't know what information you need" all I needed to know was it's Moopoke thanks bruv
That was a pretty good Will it Kill, but now I'm broke
Nago just chillin after having 99.99% of his life reduced to a memory by the most barbarous Pot combo i've ever seen is why he's the best character
It’s a vampire thing-him and Slayer are so absurdly strong that they never take fights seriously, so when they lose they always just kind of sit down and shrug it off like nbd
I'm shame and disappointed in myself for being a Potemkin main and getting HPB clip wrong.
positive bonus gives 10% damage reduction, only reason Ky lived
@@Wulfebane7 So that's what happened. As pot main i was 100% sure he's dead.
@@Wulfebane7 Thank you, I didn't notice the positive bonus and it troubled me that Ky lived.
As a Pot secondary I legit said “This should kill, but it won’t” and I was right
All he had to do was HEAT KNUCKLE FUUUUUU…
The pot combo at 23 min is REALLY suboptimal, And there are a dozen ways pot could have killed. I saw the starter and immediately said "he SHOULD kill, my 10th floor pot could kill there," but then I panicked as he HPBed instead of HK.

I'm just watching the vod and I still feel a little robbed on that one. Love the show tho, keep it up Sajam.
If they didn't want us to sub-optimally end our combos with HPB, they wouldn't have made the HPB animation so satisfying to watch
I lost all my points and it was fun :)
Everytime I see a kusoge I immediately vote yes and I'm never disappointed, even when it doesn't kill
Funny thing is that Heat Knuckle would have killed on that second Potemkin clip. HPB's minimum damage is rough.
Sajam i wanted to pop in and say that me and a friend have been doing Will It Kill together over discord, and keeping a full running total over all the episodes. its been a blast.
weve actually tied multiple times after past episodes, and are currently tied as of Ep 5 at 47/86. Theres actually 87 will it kills in episode 1-5, buuut, me and my friend both know the infamous Ash KoF13 clip well so we decided to just not bet lmao.
Imma report back in once we can hang to watch episode 6 to let ya know how ass we did
Good news: We finally got to hang out!
Bad news: I'm behind again!

Match report: A bold gambler who puts everything on the line
4:22 "Shadow Mitsuru is a fair and balanced character"
I think it's really great that you allow these filthy gambling addicts a place to gamble and get their fix in a way that doesn't cause them to lose their house or anything. Truly a champion of the people.
On that Potemkin vs Nago clip I was 100% confident on my vote until 23:36 happened. As soon as the Pot did HPB I went "wait, no, that's not gonna kill, you should have broken the wall instead aaaaaaaaaah"
Came here 2 years later to complain that I was scammed as fuck, he 100% would have killed if he HKed due to wallbreaks doing unscaled damage
Can I just say, this is likely among if not my most favorite series on RUclips.
Thank you so much for this!
always nice to see angel eyes clips. the reversed damage scaling does wonders
With every episode of this I am increasingly surprised by the amount of comedic value there is in pausing after ONE hit in a fighting game and asking if the victim is going to be dead at the end of it
I am gonna be real, I am just here for the Kyanta reaction. Really hope he plays it some day.
I saw moo playing playing shadow mitsuru and i was like "I remember this video. Yes every time.".
And it's a very big kick.
"guilty gear xrd is a """""""low damage game"""""""". pulls down webcam to reveal slayer's smug face.
First time watching it live and i gotta say i'm not even mad at losing all my points to a croc with a glock.
I went 14 and 4, this was my best will it kill yet. Thank you for not screwing me over chat.
I love this show.
By the way, the Karnak clip: there's indeed a mechanic that breaks an opponent's accessory and causes stun by hitting them in a certain way (I think it's called weak point system).
Sajam: "If you don't know the game, don't bet"
Also Sajam: 3:14
There should be a mugen edition so no one knows if it will kill
6:55
**Gasp** nothing. I thought that was an in-game sound effect.
P4AU is the wildest game I've seen in terms of the kind of damage you can do off of stray or max-range hits.
In Double Dragon, there are 2 kinds of stun. The standing stun and the grounded stun. When a character is ground stunned, they can only be hit with a pursuit attack (universal to every character). And throws can stun, and they pretty much always cause ground stun. So, what Abobo did there was to cause a ground stun from his command grab, and then he did his Earthquake super. Normally, it's an earthquake kind of move, meaning you have to crouch or you'll get hit. But, in ground stun, it's the only super in the game, as far as I know, that also acts as an OTG. So, command grab stun into OTG super.
I've now experienced what it's like hit rock bottom and making 5 times my starting amount through WiK
You know what's funny, I think there are more clips in Sajam's will it kill where Slayer does NOT kill than clips where he does kill. But it still feels like he always will.
Might be somewhat influenced by personal experience playing against him in Xrd, though.
Anyone who has watched Moopoke's P4AU videos would immediately know that Shadow Naoto is a fucked up character
23:39 you know when I saw this, the first thing that came into my head was "Man what if pots super just got scaled into hell and it somehow didn't kill?"
boy, look how that turned out huh?
Any Moopoke video that involves a shadow is a instakill
I have never been more pissed in my entire life than at 23:53.
I mean, what he did wasn’t optimal. There a simple heat knuckle would have crushed Nago’s guts 4 since it’s a multi hitting, AND it would have broke the wall.
@@leonardovavassori5556 Still the biggest robbery of all time
Heavenly pot buster did like 5 dmg.
I saw the Double Dragon Clip and went "Yep this kills" from what I remember Abobo get's more damage on the throw if you keep inputting 360's and since it stunned his Super connected from full screen
Actually, the damage on the command throw is determined by the strength of the button pressed during the command
Fuck yes, saw you were streaming this the other day at work, sad I missed the gambling :*(
I love the Slayer clip because the Zato is just mashing his little heart out while he's getting mauled
12-4 and up 7k, the other two clips were my submissions so I couldn't bet. Good WiK night for me, and thanks for including my submissions!
23:56 Nago chilling on 0.1 pixel of health.
For the record: If it's Koihime Enbu, the answer is ALWAYS YES
Top Tier Soundtrack, but don't EVER jump in this game
Also, if it's Abobo and he's got meter, you're DONE
That second Heavenly Pot Buster going off at the OHHHH part of Axl's theme was pretty cool not gonna lie.
Moment I saw the zoom iin I realized it was a moopoke clip and knew homie was done
Rip wear
was 9-1 at halftime, and 15-3 at end. I did good this episode. This series is so damn fun
yknow, i wouldnt say that knowing less about the game makes it more fun to bet, but it does make it ABSOLUTELY GODDAMN HILARIOUS
I wish I could’ve been live for this one, only could catch the vod and got a bunch correct. Kudos Sajam & Co.
4:23 Moopoke clip, so I can say with complete certainty "it killed".
good ol 140p fighting game footage from japan never gets old.
23:48- I would have lost all of my points. You’re absolutely evil, Sajam. 🤣
Dude, your lighting is on point. Love the new setup.
WOW NEW CAMERA? NEW CAMERA ANGLE? I like it!!!
“His name is ato=1 and you’re laughing”
Will it Kill is my new addiction
Play some saltybet to tide yourself over before the next one
The moment I saw Shadow Naoto was on the screen I shouted "I played that character! He's fucking dead!"
That was a fiddler crab Sajam, but you're right it has a funny walk. XD
P4AU shadow mode was like lvl 3 xfactor and the blue haired detective could tod off of anything 😂😂
Man if it weren't for sajam's streams being at like 6am in my timezone I would love to catch one of these live
21:27 as soon as I saw Sol I just knew it was gonna kill, didn't even need to see the clip to know it was gonna kill
I hate the potemkin clip cause he would have killed if he just broke the damn wall. I saw him end with super and felt salt
I'm honestly peeved at the second potemkin clip, it wasn't optimal since heat knuckle would've killed where HPB didnt because of the lack of wall break
Saw Moopoke, knew it was gonna kill in that Persona clip.
I wish I had been a part of this live. I watch a ton of Moopoke, I would have made fat shmoney on the persona clips.
I watched like 1 moopoke vid and guessed right on every persona clip
R.I.P in peace, Ato-1
He died before he could name 🙏
"I say this every time"
no you try to trick us every time
As soon as i saw shadow Naoto i KNEW there was no way she wasn't killing, that would've been the one I'd go all in on
For the third persona clip I knew immediately that they would be dead because it’s shadow naoto
All I needed to see was that Moopoke was the player in the P4 clip and I knew it was killing.
As soon as I saw Moopoke and Wear-Tear-Rust, INSTANT it Kills. Moopoke is a menace!
I knew the pot player, I knew immediately that the second pot wouldnt kill the SECOND he went for HPB. The scaling is atrocious in that exact situation, found gotta do a wall splat there
YO THE CAMERA UPGRADE I MISSED THAT
In the vast majority of cases the best strategy, I've found, is to determine what Sajam is implicitly trying to convey. Then bet on the opposite of that. He can't help himself, he's always trying to implicitly mislead you, however lightly.
idk if they need to hire new sound designers or keep the old ones but P4A sound design is fucking hilarious
You underestimate our gambling addiction
Naoto: Putting the kick chick of her game to shame.
When I saw the Dudley/Makoto first hit, I already knew it was over.😂
All that these will it kill segments has shown me is that all fighting games have too high of damage, and that shit is HILARIOUS
i dont think sajam could ever be mad and if he could no one would take him seriously
I prayed so fucking hard for El to not kill but I fucking knew whats gonna happen, I still pray that we dont see her back in strive
Getting out of work and seeing this is just perfect timing
All I know about Double Dragon is that there's a beat em up crossover with Battletoads that I used to play as a kid on some sort of bootleg emulator disc for SNES games for PS2
that zato was mashing for dear life in the xrd clip
when I saw the SF:TM:TG clip I legit just though "LET'S GO HARPERRRRR
I already know somebody in the chat said they would never financially recover from this
Fuck I missed it live it’s so much more fun live but thanks for making this sajam top tier fgc content
Yo no cap. Beard is lookin clean my guy.
