as someone with all but the most batshit insane achievements in HK, becoming an ultrakill player, I can confirm my skill is nothing compared to these people
I think it stands to the absolute mechanical depth of this game that a move that most players won't even discover by themselves has so much nuance. I've yet to incorporate chargebacks into my gameplay since I find the precise setup is a bit too time consuming for my playstyle, especially because I like to let malicious faces vibe around for a bit and clean up some of the smaller enemies before I take them out. I don't personally have much reason to go out of my way to kill them quickly, even in the coolest method imaginable.
"Violence is not the question, violence is the answer. Violence is not the answer, violence is the quens- ques- question, and the answer is yes. Yes violence." ~G_Hyze 2022
It's worth mentioning that Maurice fires the laser twice, but only on Violent difficulty. It's easier to predict and track the second shot when timing a chargeback. Awesome editing, it makes me happy to see my favorite montage maker SaimizZ in other people's videos!
@@geoffreyprecht2410 that's fair If that's worth mentioning, i think they have a higher chance of firing the laser when enraged too, especially in a row
@@somethingsomethingsomethin6104 yeah that happened to me too yesterday, with two different maurices, i think i once even got it done 4 times in a row, i don't remember, bht they are indeed more likely to use it when enraged
Once I learned how mow to parry the beam, and especially after I figured out that a fully charged pump shotgun does insane damage to Maurice, malicious faces became easy for me. It's funny how many ways there are to easily kill this enemy, though the enemy seems very difficult to fight before you learn any of the techniques
Literally bought Ultrakill 24 hours ago. I didn't even start the second act yet but i feel like i'm gonna want that whiplash very soon... Amazing video! I will style on bloody corpses as soon as i have the skills thanks to you.
seeing cybergrind footage without music is like eating a biscuit by itself. It's not necessarily evil, it's just like... why? add some gravy or some chicken or something!
one small thing about the vertback, you don't need to stand still to land it, just have to make sure that you stop holding any movement keys after you jump :p
Man this is a really good video nice job man. Its funny how at a certain point no tutorials teach you game mechanics or tech you didnt know but every time I watch somebody else play this game I see them do some new crazy flash thing that I haven't before. Its really a testament to how good this game is.
Genuinely one of the best guides for anything I’ve ever seen on RUclips and one of my favourite videos ever. It makes my brain tingle every single time I watch it because your voice is just so satisfying to listen to.
Man, seeing you wait under Maurice for the punched coin to come down and intercept the beam made me wish this game had a taunt. It would totally fit with the character action elements and be so stylish for moments like that
From what I know vertback can be done at any time, any speed, you just have to throw straight down. I haven’t tested, but I have never missed a chargeback when I throw down, because from what I know the coin is always at your position, and that’s where Maurice aims
Fun fact about the vertback: You can actually hit it while moving horizontally, just don't change direction in which you're moving until you throw the coin after jumping. The timing is pretty much the same.
Lashbacks are absolutely sick and i didnt know dashbacks were that viable stealing a nuke is absolutely practical, especially on labyrinth in cg Also you didnt talk about how maurice targets the floor. I cant wait for sentries since they wont just aim down for no reason
I did initially have a section explaining the tracking, but decided a 15min+ vid was too long :( Maurice doesn't fire the beam at you, it shoots it where it predicts you to be, so in that moment of prediction before firing, if you're dashing/sliding/slamming towards them, they may 'flick' to that position. gl with yo chargebacks!
Quick tip if you want to do chargebacks while moving sideways: The most effective way I can see to do it is to look down, and slightly to the right. If your moving left, look to the left, and vice versa. Once you hear the little click of the chargback, throw the coin. A 360 is also really effective
With the new update allowing you to juggle coins with the grappling hook, you can chuck a coin at Maurice mid charge then right as he's about to shoot; grapple the coin so it bounces up right into his face. Sorry if the explanation sucks lol. Amazing video!
I found this out while playing with sandbox. I'd call this pierceback, you can do this with 2 sentries or up, though 4 is maximum amount to be practical. Let one of them sit down, if both of them sit down, it would be easier, before the sentry shoot, toss a coin above the sentry nearest to you and let it pass overhead, right after the "ding" sound, look down, toss a coin, and let it roll. The sentry's bullet will be chargebacked, but just like railcoin, the bullet will go to other coin, which conveniently positioned behind one of the sentry, so that sentry would be killed, the second coin then go to the other sentry. Killing two of them easily. Though it's impractical if there's other enemies, but in 5-1 in second and third room from the exit, there's 2 lone sentries. And might be practical in P-2.
eternal gratitude upon thee! i'm on my first playthrough and God Damn The Sun is the only level I can't manage to get anything more than a B rank on, mostly because of the excessive amounts of Maurice per square centimeter in this level. I'll go back to it and try this >:D
i'd recommend tossing the coin at your feet for anyone struggling with the positioning of this tech; maurice shoots at your feet, so if you just look down and toss a coin towards your "toes" i find it much more consistent than trying to arc it through the air and get a perfect line from maurice to coin to feet.
amazing video, and don't let this become an overly negative thing it doesn't really matter, but you can here a high static noise in the background of your recording. just thought i'd let you know :)
the shotgun nuke thing might be some wild shit but also probably easy to do compared to the first before it just charge and perform what you would normally call a chargeback despite being so fucking brutal in comparison
About the dashback, it's actually pretty easy! aim about halfway between the floor and maurice for mid/long range and raise your retical up towards the bridge of his nose the closer you get to him. The coin moves fast enough you can do it at the last beep of the rev-up and it'll always stay in the apex! Now for the original message I had while writing: The Dashback is the only one I can hit consistently (except the very first one where you walk forward and look slightly down), meanwhile, the ones that you said were consistent were ungodly inconsistent. Might just be me, definitely a skill issue I acknowledge (and have spent 3 hours in sandbox working on since watching this video)
I think it says a lot about the ways the player can approach the game that I was wondering where getting Maurice to shoot a core was until I saw the crackhead combos. It was the first enemy attack combo I ever realized I could do, and I employ it far more often than it deserves. This game is bananas.
I have another chargeback technique which I call the jumpback, where you whiplash a Maurice, get on top of it, jump, and throw a coin downwards, it’s super easy to land the chargeback but getting onto it is the hard part
was really worried that the whole guide was only about basic chargebacks, those 1st 10 seconds were reassuring. Did stay tho bc i found out there were more then just basic chargebacks. Great guide overall 9/10
hyze just a small tip deadcoining for me is most comfortably done tossing the coin after shooting the target coin. Basically shoot and then toss in a smal time frame
Damn, and here I was thinking I was finally getting good because I finally beat Minos Prime in 100 deaths. There is sooo friggin much I have to learn with this game's mechanics...

I was mindbroken in that Cruelty Squad clip in the end, Archon Grid is a fun level :)
Your calling me a nerd when your teaching chargeback
yeah, come on ghyze. shame on you!!!! you called bartsimpson1724 a nerd!!!
fun fact: the malicious face dosent float if u look closely it is actually standing using thin spider like legs that are transparent
Ahhh okay i thpugjt that was just a weird graphical glitch or something
oh THATS what they are, thought it was like some decor since the legs also appear in the thumbnail of the steam page
if you cant see it its most notable here : 6:08
Once I see it I can't unsee it
I thought it was part of the Halloween thing when they all got pumpkin heads
Man, "Can it be more STYLISH?" is this game's lifeblood and I love it
I be stylin on fools in the game
I dunno if the joke is supposed to be there because of "lifeblood" and v1 needing blood to live
@@auhertgaming7133 it’s more than just a joke. It is a requiem.
@@FrostRare ngl I agree
Just watching this video has made me realize that Ultrakill players are more batshit insane than Hollow Knight players
My man, anyone who has mastered the marksman and coin mechanics is a downright schizo by that point.
Ultrakill fans are a bunch of bisexual schizophrenics bruh
@@laggingjaeger1148 im not gonna sugar coat it rmb + f
coming from the Hollow Knight community and into the Ultrakill community, this is true

Man promised a chargeback guide, and DELIVERED in spades.
Nooooo😭😭😭i wanted to kill maurice not dig up some dirt😭😭😭
this is the gorbinos quest of ultrakill guides and i wont be convinced otherwise
500 hours of mind pumping information
Cruelty Squad🤝ULTRAKILL
This is just like gorbino's hell
Gorbino's hell of blood.
It’s frame rate dependent?

The chargeback target uses the same priority system as normal ricoshots, it's so much fun bouncing chargebacks into packs
counterpoint:
feels good to chargeback
Interesting cuz I always target Maurice first if I can
If you're just throwing coins for a big ass ULTRARICOSHOTx4 like I tend to do, they might hit the coin by accident, so, advice: throw coins
but its cool

It's worth mentioning that Maurice fires the laser twice, but only on Violent difficulty. It's easier to predict and track the second shot when timing a chargeback.
Awesome editing, it makes me happy to see my favorite montage maker SaimizZ in other people's videos!
They only do so when enraged btw
@@thelastmlg2699 Oh right, forgot to mention that! I have over 1k hours in Ultrakill but admittedly most of it isn't on Violent difficulty...
@@geoffreyprecht2410 that's fair
If that's worth mentioning, i think they have a higher chance of firing the laser when enraged too, especially in a row
@@thelastmlg2699 yeah it did the beam attack thrice in a row for me on rage once
@@somethingsomethingsomethin6104 yeah that happened to me too yesterday, with two different maurices, i think i once even got it done 4 times in a row, i don't remember, bht they are indeed more likely to use it when enraged
This instantly made maurice go from the most annoying enemy to one of the easier ones for me thx so much
with the new red revolver, he's laughably easy. just charge up and shoot when he fires a red orb, and he blows himself up in one shot.
Once I learned how mow to parry the beam, and especially after I figured out that a fully charged pump shotgun does insane damage to Maurice, malicious faces became easy for me. It's funny how many ways there are to easily kill this enemy, though the enemy seems very difficult to fight before you learn any of the techniques
I usually just parry followed by shotgun swap (normally 2 needed)
I recently practiced chargebacking and i am confident I can reach wave 35 on cybergrind
i didnt know that Ultrakill had chargeback but in 10 seconds i mastered it
Thank you kind sir
Seeing the fistful of chargeback made my jaw DROP and stay dropped for a solid minute
Literally bought Ultrakill 24 hours ago. I didn't even start the second act yet but i feel like i'm gonna want that whiplash very soon...
Amazing video! I will style on bloody corpses as soon as i have the skills thanks to you.
seeing cybergrind footage without music is like eating a biscuit by itself. It's not necessarily evil, it's just like... why? add some gravy or some chicken or something!
I can't even just shoot a coin, but I absolutely love that game and parrying system
This video is amazing and deserves way more attention. GOATed guide.
7:22 finding two seconds of peace sounds harder than the trick itself. Awesome video!
6:08 The maurice blast turning the railcannon into an orbital laser is insane
this is one of the most niche things I've seen in my life, great job I will have a blast dying 50 times trying these
Love the ammount of TECHS in this game.
Like, it purely shows that it's not just quake with DMC scoreboard, but a DMC as FPS game
one small thing about the vertback, you don't need to stand still to land it, just have to make sure that you stop holding any movement keys after you jump :p
Yep, this is correcto!
I just started learning how to do a chargeback but I couldn't get it right, this really helped me.
Man this is a really good video nice job man. Its funny how at a certain point no tutorials teach you game mechanics or tech you didnt know but every time I watch somebody else play this game I see them do some new crazy flash thing that I haven't before.

best ultrakill guide i ever watched, even that english is my second language, i still understand it, thank you :)
Genuinely one of the best guides for anything I’ve ever seen on RUclips and one of my favourite videos ever. It makes my brain tingle every single time I watch it because your voice is just so satisfying to listen to.
bro that first bit of editing is so cool. and the music fit perfect
good video as always! i absolutely love the editing for the intro sequence
Man, seeing you wait under Maurice for the punched coin to come down and intercept the beam made me wish this game had a taunt. It would totally fit with the character action elements and be so stylish for moments like that

I’m watching this with zero ultrakill experience
GodDAMN, such editing!
THAT ANIMATION AT 0:22-
Me watching this knowing that I'll never use half the things in this video:
I bought this video for 0 dollars and I don't even want a chargeback, great guide!
bro that transition at the start is amazing as hell
30 seconds in, im already obsessed with this channel
Lashbacks are absolutely sick and i didnt know dashbacks were that viable
stealing a nuke is absolutely practical, especially on labyrinth in cg
Also you didnt talk about how maurice targets the floor. I cant wait for sentries since they wont just aim down for no reason
I did initially have a section explaining the tracking, but decided a 15min+ vid was too long :(
Maurice doesn't fire the beam at you, it shoots it where it predicts you to be, so in that moment of prediction before firing, if you're dashing/sliding/slamming towards them, they may 'flick' to that position.

I literally just got done streaming ultrakill and now THIS shows up in my recommended
you were not kidding! got this mechanic in a few minutes
god you need more attention, I can't even imagine how long that intro must have took to make
With the new update allowing you to juggle coins with the grappling hook, you can chuck a coin at Maurice mid charge then right as he's about to shoot; grapple the coin so it bounces up right into his face. Sorry if the explanation sucks lol. Amazing video!
the editing is insane
very nicely made video!! i am new to ultrakill but i liked watching, even if half of the things were extreme for me
The best way to say “Keep the change”
As someone who just got into this game (I literally bought it today and am on gluttony) the amount of tech in this game is insane
Ultrakill is the one game where you know you're playing the game right when the game's audio is starting to fuck up heavily
Chargebacking is the most fun crap ever. It one shots, stylish, very tun to do.
I love how the blast launches the coin and the railcannon turns into an orbital laser.
I found this out while playing with sandbox. I'd call this pierceback, you can do this with 2 sentries or up, though 4 is maximum amount to be practical.

HOW HAS THIS NOT HAVE MORE VIEWS
Sick! Thanks for the mad guide.
The editing in this is fucking amazing, and this video actually helped me learn the chargeback.
god-tier editing
This is really high quality stuff!
nice work
i'd recommend tossing the coin at your feet for anyone struggling with the positioning of this tech; maurice shoots at your feet, so if you just look down and toss a coin towards your "toes" i find it much more consistent than trying to arc it through the air and get a perfect line from maurice to coin to feet.
holy shit now I know more about ULTRAKILL thanks
I had no idea you could even do that. This game is insane.
SUPER CLEAN EDITS
amazing video, and don't let this become an overly negative thing it doesn't really matter, but you can here a high static noise in the background of your recording. just thought i'd let you know :)
love on you
0:18 THIS IS SO GOOD
hakita needs to make the autonuke a style bonus and make it worth a LOT
Saying ur editing is good is a HUGE fuckin understatement
the shotgun nuke thing might be some wild shit but also probably easy to do compared to the first before it
just charge and perform what you would normally call a chargeback despite being so fucking brutal in comparison
Maurice is the most bullied enemy in the game and I love it
wicked sick editing
Awesome video hyzenberg
Every once in a while, my goddamn jaw drops at the fucking tech in this game
Best guide ever
About the dashback, it's actually pretty easy! aim about halfway between the floor and maurice for mid/long range and raise your retical up towards the bridge of his nose the closer you get to him. The coin moves fast enough you can do it at the last beep of the rev-up and it'll always stay in the apex! Now for the original message I had while writing:
The Dashback is the only one I can hit consistently (except the very first one where you walk forward and look slightly down), meanwhile, the ones that you said were consistent were ungodly inconsistent. Might just be me, definitely a skill issue I acknowledge (and have spent 3 hours in sandbox working on since watching this video)
I think it says a lot about the ways the player can approach the game that I was wondering where getting Maurice to shoot a core was until I saw the crackhead combos.

Okay, this opening was poggers
Thanks for the tutorial
Maurice fact: authentic Maurice is more fragile than fake Maurice.
I improved my skills thanks to you. Thank you very much. I be a pro in 3 days
Thanks this work is one-shot
i didnt know this existed, very cool!
You can also chargeback sentry beams, but thats pretty obvious after it being so long since layer 5 was released
Same with ferryman lightning
and to think this much information is only for one mechanic. the coin is maybe the most genius mechanic in all of gaming
hyze just a small tip deadcoining for me is most comfortably done tossing the coin after shooting the target coin. Basically shoot and then toss in a smal time frame
Very helpfull guide! I'll sure try everything the next time I launch Ultrakill
Dude, your editing is on the level of Fishtank's editing. (fishtank is super good at editing btw)
