I wish I could get all MY stress out with a big glowy beam....
His boss fight in BotW would be way more interesting if he did that instead of getting buried in the ground. I guess he’s just not that good at pressing the ZR button in time.
@@turbo__unicorn3370
He doesn't know the Tantrum Cancel tech.
No. That would destroy the planet.
Just do it how I solve my problems spongebob... *S C R E E E A A M!!!*
Lol idk, I’d hate to see my big Glowy Blast, more like a big Glowy Nuke lol
You forgot to mention that Master Kohga has the unique ability to kill everyone... TO DEATH!! But seriously, great video.
Age of Calamity has some of the best and memorable jokes in the Zelda-series. XD
Some others are
- Patricia getting her own introductory-card (my favourite joke)
- Impa calling Terrako a tea-pot
- and Master Kohga in general
And revali calling link a pathetic knight after getting roasted
The true main character in age of calmitity
Very true
after unlocking him I pretty much only played as him for the last couple chapters for the sake of letting him avenge sooga
@@pandabanaan9208 If i recall correctly, killing enemies as him sometimes causes him to ask if Sooga is watching him.
@@anexplosion5436 oh god that's sad, even though they never showed sooga's implied death onscreen it had an immense impact on kohga
@@pandabanaan9208 Even moreso when you realise that, due to him not using it until your playing as him, his "stress" meter may have come from the death of Sooga.
HE"S SERVING UP A WHOLE LOT OF HURT!
When I first heard that line I thought he was saying "I'm serving up... A WHOLE LOT OF PERFECT" and that's been my headcanon ever since
And he's gonna kill everyone...
TO *DEATH*
YOUCH!!!
@@donutholebandit6212 that is so much better than the actual line
I really appreciate how you're starting with some of the more complicated characters, very cool.
When I got Kohga I used him in the great plateau map and I thought he was really weak but then I just remembered almost everyone's starting weapon sucks.
Kohga’s starting weapon is actually his best one
@@catalyst539 It's his good variant, but low in base damage
Yes
Even calamity ganon?
@@mega6662 I can't remember, but if Terrako did I imagine even he started with a bad weapon.
I just hope Sooga comes as the first DLC, he's the one character who seems like a huge exclusion from the cast
@Chip Wiseman Mipha's Dad.
Kass would be fun, and it doesn’t seem too ridiculous to think he might get in after the big role he played in the BOTW dlc
And the fact we got another musician known as Hestu
@@failure4452 He had a big role in the DLC?
@Peterson Byrd well he gives you the riddles for the monument things
Thank you for covering the most powerful character in Zelda canon, both in strength and sex appeal.
Also really great detail that he refers to Ganon as "Lord Ganon" when you switch to him.
"Now I'm even MORE charming!"
-Master Kohga
I love Kohga’s strong air attack. For one moment, his goofy exterior is stripped away and he legit looks like a badass.
ya behind what we know of a goofy semi crazy master of the yiga hes rightfully deserved to be respected, shure hes a goof but when he intends to (as in hyrule warrior) he can clean HOUSE with you and everyone near you. and if given access to a slate can have some funny with it. as derpy as the man is, hes got equal power too. thus is why i respect him
I instantly fell in love with Kohga when playing as him and was glad that on top of that he was actually good considering I really love the Yiga clan in general in BotW. I really appreciate characters that bring goofiness into battle.
I love how everyone thought the Champions would be top-tier, but ends up it’s basically every character other than the Champions being top-tier.
The instant I learned that Master Kohga would be playable, I knew he would be my guy. His personality, the flavor, everything about his kit I love to death.
It's so satisfying to build up a Big Glowy Blast and just destroy bosses with ease. Such a fun character 😂
Kohga is hilarious, and effective. One of my faves!
"There's just so much 'flavor' in everything he does"
I see that joke about the guy that eats bananas as part of his kit
No
I had no idea he could tantrum cancel. This changes everything and makes him a lot less tedious to play. Great video. 👍
if you play with prompts on it notifies you when you can tantrum cancel
I found it absolutely hilarious and amazing how they went from having Kohga in BOTW be nothing more than a joke of a boss battle, to a freaking divine beast with the big glowy blast in AOC 😭
He’s one of my favorite characters to play now, other than Teba and Urbosa.
As someone who played basically only zant in the first game, I fell in love with this character immediately. The tantrum cancel I figured out within just one battle with him on my own and the moment I discovered his power I knew I was playing his successor.
Zant was easily one of the most powerful characters in the first game when you had an I frame strong attack into a long range beam or spinning juggle and in this game the kit has been retooled to fit the lack of knockback and increase in weak point gauges by making the beam a weak point breaker instead.
One little bit of world building I find neat is the relation between Impa, Kohga, and Maz Koshia, Impa is able to make a ton of hard light duplicates of herself, but they all mirror her every move, Kohga is able to make a perfectly independant duplicate of himself, but only one, meanwhile Maz Koshia is able to make multiple independant duplicates of himself. It's a nice bit of worldbuilding on the experience and skill of all 3 as members (well, former in ones case) of the Shiekah
"Sooga! Where were you? I almost got pealed like a banana!" I enjoyed all the cutscenes with Master Koga in them 🤣
One of the post-game Terrako missions force you to play as Kohga and Impa, so I took him to both stages where you rescue the Champions to level him up and learn him, and as soon as I figured out that you could fire his lazor right as he starts staggering, he made incredibly quick work out of the Blights. He feels like they mixed Tingle and Zant and kept the best aspects of both. Heck, his dance almost looks like the Kooloo Limpah dance. Like, points left, points right, spins, finishing pose. He's quickly become one of my mains, and was a great help in a lot of post-game missions.
He is INCREDIBLY fun to play as, and Big Glowy Blast is just... Weak points can't withstand that thing. At all.
it's funny that everyone here loves kohga and loves playing kohga (who I just unlocked and am super excited to play now) but when I looked at a couple of tier lists they put my boy at the bottom. Tis shame, I'm gonna have a blast playing as kohga.
He’s Amazing and yes I also compared him to Zant the first I used him, He’s Just really fun and the Big Glowy blast is an Incredibly effective and funny Move
There are so many characters in this game that seem bad at first until you realize they can force weak point gauge lol and suddenly they’re great
You can normally destroy a whole weak point bar by
Using the full rolling ball combo, then using a blast cancel, then using his bomb ruin
And most enemies can't hit Kohga when the ball is the middle/biggest.
What's a blast cancel and bomb ruin?
I would argue about the importance of the Strong Attack banana input, because it depends on the situation where the move would work. Like timed missions where you don't have time to spare to do the Big Glowy Blast, the player isn't that great with the Big Glowy Blast just yet, or if the player wants to use a combo that'd normally add to the stress gauge, but don't want it to increase just yet.
I’ve found that the banana break is a little useful if you use stressful moves on weaker enemies and you don’t want to accidentally waste your big glowy beam on a few minor enemies. Granted you could just cancel out of your moves before your stress increases, but it’s a good failsafe in case you accidentally let a stressful move finish.
When I first got a "pathetic little tantrum" from him, I busted out laughing! His fighting style is so funny!
I love how master kogha gameplay is basically dealing with anxiety
I love the remakes of the themes to match the action packed style game instead of the exploring calm themes in the first game
Lol, this playstyle is absolutely perfect for kohga.
Honestly I had Kohga under-leveled and not fully upgraded when I did his and Impa's unique quest at Akala Citadel, and I managed to succeed with him without relying too much on Impa
I wish he had more screen time in cutscenes, it's been awhile since I've laughed that much at someone in a game.
His first line when he speaks to Sooga always makes me laugh. Just the silliness of what he says with his hysterical voice is the best combination.
One good thing about Kohga is that you can just attack empty air and build stress for the beam, trading a little damage for a lot of safety. One of my favourite characters, along with the King & Impa!
I find the bananas useful even as I've gotten a hang of him. Yes, I can always cancel out of a tantrum spiral with a Big Glowy Beam if I'm paying attention, but that can often get me firing a laser at flat nothing for five seconds. Many times I've tried to aim myself in freefall to avoid this and I take too long and wind up in the ground.
If you want to play Kohga as any other character, but sometimes a big laser happens, that's fine, but bananas can be very helpful for using it purposefully and reliably, imo.
I'm loving these guides so far, especially the ones that cover secret techniques or information I didn't know about, like Zelda's Slate. One question though; you aren't really going into anyone's Special attacks like you did for the old Hyrule Warriors. Any particular reason for this?
I will if there is something to say, like Zelda's. Impa will also require it. For almost everyone else it's just press a single button, and totally staightforward.
@@warriorsdojo6044 It will also be for Mipha, right? For its healing properties
@@ilovechocolate3217 I think he would cover it, but only briefly since its healing properties are pretty self explanatory
@@MrStonk-tx2mi it also heals the people around you. Many people don't seem to know that
@@celsius1359 tbh thats fair, Mipha's pretty underrated because of that and her geysers (which also heal)
Can't really think of anything to note about Kohga. But I'll shoehorn in a couple.
While likely coincidence, Kohga's Cryonis rune is notably similar to the main gimmick of Snowhead Temple in Majora's Mask. Again- Probably coincidence, but every time I use his Cryonis, I think about that.
In the move when Kohga is being carried by a couple Yiga Blademasters, Kohga is actually leading the Blademasters with a Mighty Banana on a stick. Neat little touch that is REALLY hard to notice.
I love how even the joke characters in this game are fun to play. I _dreaded_ playing any mission that forced Tingle on me in the original Hyrule Warriors. In this game, I can comfortably and enjoyably play anyone on the roster. Everyone has something that makes them fun and unique to play. It's a nice feeling.
I'm sure someone else has already mentioned this, but Kohga's ZR without a full meter actually gives you a lot of invincibility frames - to the point where if you're almost at maximum stress you can spam it to safely get the beam attack, or you can time it to get out of sticky situations.
I actually found Kohga's stasis to be very useful, since it lets him get out of a bad spot and reposition while building up his invincible beam. Cycling between the beam and stasis lets you take on multiple foes without worrying too much about being overrun, but it is admittedly a bit tedious.
God I hope he is playable in botw 2 or at least coming back for another boss battle
Ahh the Master himself, the joke is he looks like a meme but he's absolutely deadly. That laser is just broken if you know how to spam it.
200 hrs into the game, everybody is level 100, and I just knew that Kohga can eat banana multiple times... He's gonna kill me to death.
Seeing Kohga as a playable character in my playthrough, I was stoked and I already had the hang of his playstyle. Besides Daruk, Revali and Terrako: Kohga is without a doubt my favourite character. Plus his theme is awesome.
I'm realy happy with Kohga. Zant wad my main in HW1, and seeing that playstyle get spruced up made the top banana an instant main this time as well.
The banana DOES give you a bit more control over when you use your Big Glowy Blast, which might be useful if you're stressed for time or need to position the attack against multiple enemies. Both things that you can do without the help of the banana, but still an option that one might consider.
Right as I got done watching sgt frog, good timing
Dojo-sensei, we have Sooga too. The comic duo is finally reunited.
In my very limited experience with the character, I found the banana still useful for allowing you to _store_ a Big Glowy Blast so you can make sure it goes off in a useful direction.
Love these videos.
I appreciate how you take the time to explain how to best use characters and how to make the most of their combo strings. To much of those I ask on forums just say "×" character is terrible just use "y" instead.
The data on this game is still pretty scarce, so I really appreciate all these guys you and other creators pump out.
Doing great work 👍
Happy holidays!
One thing to note: A 2 second window is typically greater then the window you have to create a strong attack mid combo.
Also theoretically Attack Range makes his obsession with running on balls a great wave clearer and lets his unique action.
My only complaint is that you have to hit 100% to use the unique action, the fact there is visual cues well before you can use it is weird.
“It is my time!”
_”yOu BeTtEr NoT sLoW mE dOwN”_
This game turned kohga from a character I barely cared about to easily in my top 3
I'M YOUR BEST GUY!
-Master Kohga
I'm glad this video exists. I unlocked Koga yesterday and wrote him off as a terrible character to play as because I didn't know his mechanics, nor does the game explain them too well. I can now adapt my playstyle to play Koga effectively thanks to you.
"Oh, Ah, On the rocks!"
I think Kohga has got to be my favorite play-style! It’s all so funny! 😂
Brilliant work again. Can’t wait to see who you focus on next.
There's just something so funny about the phrase "tantrum cancel".
The banana move is also useful if you’re getting stressed but aren’t ready to use the Big Glowy Blast.
My favourite detail about playing as Kohga is his goofy ass voice lines, specifically how he shouts “On the rocks!” when using cryonis, and “I did it? Uh, I did it!” whenever defeating a strong enemy or taking an outpost
He's the leader of the bunch
You know him well
I was so excited to see you do a video on my main
Why did you have to quote the DK Rap..?
Because banana
oh, forgot about that
I feel like Kohga’s banana mechanic could have been better used as a way to increase his damage output. Perhaps for the short period of time after he’s eaten a banana, all damage he deals is boosted by like, 25%, which includes specials, WPS, rune damage, and his Big Glowy Blast damage to weak point gauges.
The main man is here! I've been waiting with much anticipation for this one!
‘I’m your best guy’
And he was right
I think you can just stay on top of the ice pillar and attack from there to launch the ice pieces, though chances are that he'll fall off during the attacks anyway.
The ice pillar stacks really remind me of that goron dungeon from Majora's Mask, with a similar tower that you knock pieces off of with Goron Link, if I remember correctly.
Yunobo's Cryonis rune also looks a heck of a lot like Snowhead Temple's tower ice blocks, and he's a Goron to boot...
@@sanityismadness
If I remember correctly, Yunobo's cryonis didn't have multiple segments like this guy has, but it launched him instead? Or was that Daruk..?
@@samufinland5765, no, it’s both
"I'm your Best Guy!"
After playing with Kohga i cant use another character now.
He's the leader of the clan
You know him well
And he’s finally back
To kick and flail
Oh. Oh yes. I didn’t know about the zr during the spin out. This makes him one of the best characters. I love this
Thanks for this analyse! I always look forward to your videos!
Master Kohga was high on my list of “characters I want warriors dojo to make a guide on soon. Your content is really well made and I’m excited to see what chapter you break down next!
Thanks for all the guides! Very comprehensive and proffessional-sounding. Seriously, nice job! I'd recommend this channel to any of my friends if i had any..
I love watching your tutorial videos so much, your tips and techniques make me enjoy age of calamity so much more, I am looking forward and excited for you new videos about different characters. SENSEI YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!
I love these videos, please keep them coming ❤️
thanks for doing all these guides, u really helped out with HW1, especially with Ghirahim, I had no idea just how useful it could be to do his lock on and spam that projectile, REALLY helpful with those quiz battles, even more so with the ones where it pairs a captain with a grunt that can die in just a few hits
This was a christmas gift I wasn’t expecting. Great vid!
Thank you! This guide is definitely helpful since I don’t dabble with Rage meter characters until I get some direction on how to handle them.
I so look forward to these guides. I feel like I get a new main after every one xD
Online all I've seen is pages saying he's really weak and bad other than his blast but I actually took the time to learn him. He's a lot of fun and I can take down an enemy pretty fast with him, the attack where he gets punched and then fights with one of his followers is really good to build the stress meter and it does have area attack value
No wonder I love Khoga, I'm naturally drawn to characters i accidentally learn their good techs
One of my favorites from the moment I unlocked him. That big beam is just so freaking fun!
A cherry on top!? Don’t you mean a banana on top?
...
I’ll see myself out
Good work keep it up
Oh boy this makes me need the game
Can't wait to see the tier list for this game ^^
Also, hoping Fate/Extella Link and OP: Pirate Warriors 4 will get one ^^
Kohga's Cryonis rune is priceless. HOO HA! ON THE ROCKS!
My favorite character in the Zelda series
The zant of age of calamity
He rocks
Got a stress releif ad at 5:00 LOL
Awesome guide! If he had the Big Glowy Blast in BotW, the boss fight would have been way more fun I think.
Also I hope you're planning to do Hestu next, he's the one other character whose mechanics I don't fully grasp yet, specifically the Koroks summoned by C1.
Oh hey Zant, love the new mask buddy!
As a koga main I appreciate this alot
He's been my highest level character for the whole time ive played, his xxxyyy combo is so good it stuns the enemy then charges your laser to destroy there weak point gauge
kohga is amazing 👏
"FROM MY HANDSOME ASHES WE SHALL RISE AGAIN!" Master Kogha death quote age of calamity
Reminds me a lot of Zant from the OG Hyrule Warriors
Which also makes him super fun to play for me
I figured him out right after i got him
Kohga is one of my favorite characters to play. I also really liked Zant, so that makes sense
When i got Kohga the first time while completing the story i upgraded him a little bit and immediately used him to defeat Calamity Ganon. And he was really useful, especially with the blights
I knew Koga was going to be next!
his Big Glowy Laser came as a complete surprise to me. my first reaction to it was roughly "SINCE WHEN CAN YOU PISS OUT A GUARDIAN LASER"
two take aways from that:
1. why didn't he do it when he was a boss
2. THANK FUCK HE DIDN'T DO IT WHEN HE WAS A BOSS
Yes kohga is best boi
He might be the best character in the game depending on how you look at things. He is the best in the game at handling multiple boss type enemies without the use of Stasis, all he has to do is spam his C4-Big Glowy Blast loop. His C4 can begin staggering bosses as soon as the first hit of the X button comes out and usually keep them staggered just enough to be able to always reach his Big Glowy Blast attack at the end. He’s insane with a decent weapon and his combos upgraded. I don’t even have ANY seals on his primary weapon, which is still a base 70 level 1 weapon
He’s not super good at racking up high KO’s of weak enemies, but nobody compares, not even Teba or Link imo at handling bosses
This makes him the best to me, because dealing with multiple bosses at once is arguably the hardest task to have to do in this game.
