Never thought I’d be the first to be excited to see this series return. My tears of joy are falling in the first few seconds, and oh how I missed this show.
I remember how devastated I was when you announced that you were discontinuing this series 3 years ago which is why I am so happy you started it up again. Its also quite coincidental because me an a group of friends who have a wide variety of experience with MH are planning to start a world run in winter break. Even after about 1000+ hours in world you still manage to teach me something new about MHW.
Holy shit. Literally picked this game up again after like a year yesterday, and was watching the old monster matchup videos, and then this pops up outta nowhere. Let's fucking go
There's new videos!!!! I'm so fucking happy! I missed this series sooo much and was sad to see it just stop after Teostra. God... I can't believe I am tearing up about this.
-If you’re an actual gigachad, Lunastra is susceptible to interruption after the first blast of her nova. -The flame patches will detonate when Lunastra blasts them with wind. They scatter onto the ground, then once wind touches them, they burst and knock you down. Sort of like a backdraft. So try not to stand in those too often, because that’s actually her main source of interruption. -The tail swipe hits twice. Teostra’s does not. -Both Lunastra and Teostra have a “charge-up” animation where they will disengage and start to turn up the heat so they can go glowy and hot and painful and HELP- Flinching or clutch clawing them will interrupt this. -Fun fact: In the event of a Lunastra/Teostra bond, there’s a 50/50 chance they will switch novas. While bathing in the other’s scales, they may use their mate’s fire instead. This happens if Lunastra ends up in the air.
I am so happy to this, I’ve just gotten back into MH and I’ve got a couple of my friends into it. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect, you sure have made my Christmas/year. Thank you👌🏼
Thank you for coming baaaaackkkk!!!! I only found you a short time ago, and you helped me understand the monsters I was fighting soooo much! I have been struggling in iceborne without you, lol.
OMG Gabe!! I've missed you so much. I saw monster matchup and thought youtube glitched for a second. And thanks to you...I can't listen to Crawling without seeing angry Girros.
Ngl, i thought this series was dead. Not complaining though, i always enjoy these! Edit: i forgot you put the series on indefinite hold, and that was 2 years ago. Man time flies. Hopefully you will be able to enjoy making these and won't get burnt out!
Yes!!! Not only does this fantastic series return but also gives me tips on the monster I have the most trouble with! I never knew Luna had wind pressure?? 👀
Kushala set bonus is how I cleaned house with arch luna originally. Getting rid of her god awful wind pressure completely flips the fight. You’ll be surprised just how much she was locking you down with it.
This thing's been in my Steam library for a few years now, I've been meaning to get around to getting a device that can actually run it, and if you're resuming this series, that may be my cue to do so! Glad you're back.
I know these videos are a lot of work, and burn out is a real thing, but your presentation is amazing and I want to see all the monsters! Obviously do whats best for you, but I hope you will continue
Hey, welcome back Gabe! So glad to see an update here, was a surprise I was not expecting but am so happy to see. Christmas came early! Hope life's been treating you alright, and that the end of 2023 is a great one!
One thing that got left out, I had gotten confused with Lunastra initially due to its lack of water weakness, but apparently water weapons *can* help put out the puddles of fire everywhere. Of course they’ll just get reignited but could come in handy
I remember when I first saw this series, I was still fairly new to MH. I have since played 4U, 3U, GU, Rise:SB and have started playing frontier for about a week.
Ah! You returned! And for some strange reason, my computer suddenly decided to download MHW. Glad to have you back! I'm going to admit your videos were the reason I stuck with this game when I had some hard times, and now I'm at 1k hours. ... That doesn't mean I'm good at it yet.
Oh, how I've missed you. Wonderous return to you, sir. Hope you're feeling better all around, and are enjoying life! Looking forward to new videos! ☺️🫶🏿
A note you missed is that the wind pressure of her wings spreading fire or her nova isn’t blocked by the regular skill, but is a non issue if you have a hunting horn with “negate all wind pressure” song or kushala’s 3 piece set bonus
So dragon weapons with high elder seal are more useful than you think let me explain how the fight mechanically works as a veteran : So lunastra slowly charges up her heat as the fight progresses and when it reaches max she will do the nova and reset it the higher her heat the more puddles of fire, more heat damage and more fire related moves so when it's maxed out "aka when she glows bright blue" equip fire mantle and keep an eye for the nova animation to run away... Remember when the nova happens the fire puddles combust and deal heavy damage as well as knocking you back so don't go near them and go as far as you can... So where do dragon weapons come to play ? See dragon weapons reduce her heat level in other words a pro can actually remain aggressive and never allow her to even use her nova at all... The key in general is grabbing a dragon weapon and high fire resistance and just go nuts at her the more aggressive you are the more you will be able to reduce her heat which in turn will allow you to be more aggressive
Never thought I’d be the first to be excited to see this series return. My tears of joy are falling in the first few seconds, and oh how I missed this show.
Dude i almsot forgot about this and when i saw the panda picture and the title in my feed, it reawakened some very dusty memories, jesus CHRIST
i have been waiting forever
@@TotallyCreativeNameBtw
Me: *Causally hunts Rajang in Desert*
Lunastra in the distance: “So anyways, I started blasting.”
Causally hunting and rajang should not be in the same sentence
Its fine as long as it wasnt a furious rajang, those bois are bad news.
@@oriondye3212 The ketamine goku ape is scary either way
Lunastra jumped me while I was hunting tempered nightshade in the guiding lands. I ended up killing both.
@@notsogreatjagras4314one time rajang jumped onto a tempered Barroth I was fighting and killed it. It was scary af
The same time I return to this glorious game… the GOAT returns to preach
Same exact situation with me lol, so glad papa Gabe is back

"The show were you get to know your foe from head to toe" it felt so good to say that with again.
"EXCUSE ME, HE ASKED FOR NO PICKLES!" Is pure Lunastra Energy and I love it!
Followed by an immediate right hook
Holy shit. Literally picked this game up again after like a year yesterday, and was watching the old monster matchup videos, and then this pops up outta nowhere. Let's fucking go
To those saying "he's finally back", he posted a video a little over a week ago. Where yall at? Lol
HE LIVES EVERYBODY HE LIVES
When the world needed him most, he returned.
The MAN, MYTH, LEGEND! Papa Gabe is back to help us wee hunters!
There's new videos!!!! I'm so fucking happy! I missed this series sooo much and was sad to see it just stop after Teostra. God... I can't believe I am tearing up about this.
IM SO HAPPY TO HAVE THIS SERIES BACK ❤
Welcomeback Gabe 🎉 I really struggle a bit without these guides back on the day.
2:02 I often call that move. "Set my heart to blaze"
When the world needed him most, he returned. So glad to see you starting these again. I thought those days were long gone.
Welcome back, Gabe! Your series is my favourite on Monster Hunter: World bar none
Welcome Back Gabe, its refreshing to see MHW again and this series.
omg it's Gabe! Welcome back!
I've been back playing monster hunter world A LOT, and seeing this series back bring joy to my day.

Happy to see this channel is back and running again! Excited for more Monster Hunter “Monster Matchup” guides hopefully you’ll cover Iceborne as well!
I won't be ashamed to admit it but I full on squealed when I saw this video came out.... Totally made my day even BETTER!
I missed your videos so much!!! thank you so much for continuing the series!!!
I am so happy to this, I’ve just gotten back into MH and I’ve got a couple of my friends into it. The timing couldn’t have been more perfect, you sure have made my Christmas/year. Thank you👌🏼

PAPA RETURNS
Wow incredible new video about monsters.
Very happy to see this return. This is how I found your channel.
Whooooooooooooooooooooo! Glad to see you uploading more man! Even if it takes forever, we're all still gonna be here for the videos!
And look who's alive and kicking.
Welcome back, or not, idk just knowing you're still out there put's a smile on my face.
THE MONSTER MASHUP HAS RETURNED!!!!!
OMG Gabe!! I've missed you so much. I saw monster matchup and thought youtube glitched for a second. And thanks to you...I can't listen to Crawling without seeing angry Girros.
I was just rewatching the past videos for old times!
HOLY SHIT! I JUST REWATCHED THE WHOLE SERIES LIKE 2 DAYS AGO AND SUDDENLY THERE'S A NEW ONE! YESSSSS!
HE RETURNS!
So good to see these back :D Nice timing too, i was just considering getting back into world myself.
Damn. This series came back right as I got the urge to check up on this channel. Hell yeah
Ngl, i thought this series was dead. Not complaining though, i always enjoy these!
Edit: i forgot you put the series on indefinite hold, and that was 2 years ago. Man time flies. Hopefully you will be able to enjoy making these and won't get burnt out!
It has been 2,013 days since lunastra was added to monster hunter world.
Dude, I thought I was dreaming when I saw the title and "13 hours ago". So happy to see this back!!❤❤
It has been 84 years, but finally PAPA GABE IS BACK LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Yes!!! Not only does this fantastic series return but also gives me tips on the monster I have the most trouble with! I never knew Luna had wind pressure?? 👀
Kushala set bonus is how I cleaned house with arch luna originally. Getting rid of her god awful wind pressure completely flips the fight. You’ll be surprised just how much she was locking you down with it.
YES! I really missed this series! Another awesome episode! ❤
So happy you are back! Hope you still find happiness in doing these! Love your content!
Welcome back Gabe hope you feel better soon and can't wait to see your next episode
This thing's been in my Steam library for a few years now, I've been meaning to get around to getting a device that can actually run it, and if you're resuming this series, that may be my cue to do so! Glad you're back.
Been a while. I remember when I was playing through World that your Legiana video helped me prepare quite a bit for my fight with her.
I’m so glad to see this again, I really hope you do all the monster.
I know these videos are a lot of work, and burn out is a real thing, but your presentation is amazing and I want to see all the monsters! Obviously do whats best for you, but I hope you will continue
7:38 Lunastra would probably do that if she was humanized 😂😂😂
Even funnier, she’s saying it to a Deviljho
*Thank you for coming back!*
I had a double take when I saw the notification pop up, kept us waiting.
The legend is back~, love this series so much. I still hoped that I saw this series go through Rise/sunbreaks monsters to.
OMG I’ve waited for soo long for this series to continue TYSM GABE
Welcome back, dude! Glad to see you back after radio silence.
I am so happy to see you back bro!
the return of the king
I just started replaying mhw so i was rewatching old vids and super stoked to see this update!!
So long it is so good to see you back 😢
omg my fav series has returned , I'm so happy rn !
I never thought I’d see the day
Oh how i missed this, wellcome back mate, Happy to say you still gor it
Can it BE!?!? HE’S BACK!!!!! Glad to have you back gabe looking forward to the series finally getting finished
Hey, welcome back Gabe! So glad to see an update here, was a surprise I was not expecting but am so happy to see. Christmas came early! Hope life's been treating you alright, and that the end of 2023 is a great one!
Thank you for the new video Gabe, I've missed your content so its great to see it again !
One thing that got left out, I had gotten confused with Lunastra initially due to its lack of water weakness, but apparently water weapons *can* help put out the puddles of fire everywhere. Of course they’ll just get reignited but could come in handy
The legend returns…
I remember when I first saw this series, I was still fairly new to MH. I have since played 4U, 3U, GU, Rise:SB and have started playing frontier for about a week.
No cap, I was more excited to see this video than the GTA VI trailer 😅
My glorious king has returned good to see you back
Ah! You returned! And for some strange reason, my computer suddenly decided to download MHW. Glad to have you back! I'm going to admit your videos were the reason I stuck with this game when I had some hard times, and now I'm at 1k hours.
... That doesn't mean I'm good at it yet.
I don't care if its been a long time since the last video if you continue with this series I WILL WATCH
I'm so happy these are back!
I used this series to beat base monster hunter before iceborne but it is good to see Gabe back
I found that the shara ishvalda armor is a great help; gets rid of air pressure, flinching, and synergizes with the mantles.
You came back 😭😭😭
I really love these videos
Never expected to see this come back. Awesome
This is my favorite series and I still quote some of the vids to this day
This can’t be 3 years the legend returns im so fucking happy
Welcome back Gabe! hope you're doing better
The final verdict was AMAZING
GOSH I MISSED YOU SO MUCH
I never thought that this man would be back!
I'm glad you're back! I hope you'll be able to at least finish base world and maybe stick around for the next monster hunter game!
Welcome back~ now I will know the monster from head to toe, so I won't go, oh no!
And when we needed him most, he returned
GTA 6 trailer AND a Gabe video? This day is amazing!
Oh, how I've missed you.
Wonderous return to you, sir. Hope you're feeling better all around, and are enjoying life! Looking forward to new videos! ☺️🫶🏿
When the world needed him the most, HES BACK but you got a lot of catching up to do
Thx for continuing the series, I recently got back into mhw. ❤
Damn good to see ya back big panda
A note you missed is that the wind pressure of her wings spreading fire or her nova isn’t blocked by the regular skill, but is a non issue if you have a hunting horn with “negate all wind pressure” song or kushala’s 3 piece set bonus
it returns!!! so happy to see this again
He's back 🫡
papa gabe has returned with the elder dragon jam!
Dude holy apceros papa gabe posted a monster matchup get the popcorn.
So dragon weapons with high elder seal are more useful than you think let me explain how the fight mechanically works as a veteran :
So lunastra slowly charges up her heat as the fight progresses and when it reaches max she will do the nova and reset it the higher her heat the more puddles of fire, more heat damage and more fire related moves so when it's maxed out "aka when she glows bright blue" equip fire mantle and keep an eye for the nova animation to run away... Remember when the nova happens the fire puddles combust and deal heavy damage as well as knocking you back so don't go near them and go as far as you can... So where do dragon weapons come to play ? See dragon weapons reduce her heat level in other words a pro can actually remain aggressive and never allow her to even use her nova at all... The key in general is grabbing a dragon weapon and high fire resistance and just go nuts at her the more aggressive you are the more you will be able to reduce her heat which in turn will allow you to be more aggressive
Return of the king
My God it's been so long I forgot the monster mashup even existed
Damn was this a surprise to see pop up in my feed today. Hell yeah.
I WAS JUST TALKING YESTERDAY ABOUT HOW MUCH I MISS MONSTER HUNTER WORLD AAAAH ♥♥♥
