Because Barou is fully self-centered, he brutally forces the universe to revolve around him whether they want it or not. Other self-centered people don’t see any benefits in Barou, because he always wants to be the main star, and if he gets the ball, he will become the main star which is what other self-centered player like Shidou wants to be. You’ll also realize that most extremely self-centered ego players don’t interact with each others as often unless they’re in the same team, which only leads to a rivalry
An example of 2 extremely self-centered players interacting: Rin and Shidou 3rd selection, Isagi and Barou on the same team. All of them aimed towards their own goals. Barou, being known as the most selfish, self-centered player here, doesn’t have interest for the opposing team whether he wins or lose, unless it’s the one person he wants to devour(Isagi)
You also need to remember that in the u20 game ,the team revolved around shidou and we see that shidou isn't much of a team player . So even if pxg revolved around him there wouldn't be much difference. For shidou it's 1 vs all .Shidou works properly only with a great passer whereas barou doesn't. Barou can work with any team and manage it to be the best like a king.
Keep in mind that Barou actually worked all his body for the goals meanwhile Shidou sold multiple goals while having Charles feed him lethal passes. And plus, Shidou stays in the field and when he does, it revolves around him as well.
Shidou only really gets goals from getting fed passes, and when there’s one guy on him he can’t do anything basically the whole game, also he kinda missed 10 shots in one game in the nel
I don’t think Barou beats Shidou in jumping height because the Kunigami Shidou was going against was the Kunigami who beat the wild card but Barou beat the less physical version. I also think this because of Shidou’s Big Bang Drive: when Gagamaru clears the ball telling the Blue lock Team to move up signifying a high pass Shidou jumps up in the air and lands a bicycle kick.
Yeah true but that was only when shidou was in the flow state. And he hasn’t been able to use it since. But barou’s predator eyes are much more reliable than shidou’s flow
@AlanUhiaraI don’t think flow state enhances physical abilities more so reaction time and skill. Also it was talking just about jump height, so predator eyes isn’t a factor
It is closer than people are willing to admit. Both are great who should not be underestimated. (As for they scored in every game they played that applies to Bachira and Kaiser too, not only Rin and Barou) Dont get me wrong, Barou still wins but people both overestimate him and underestimate Shidou
I was not talking in the NEL bro, Bachira had many games with no goals, as for Kaiser he aint from BL also i like Shidou a lot i didn't underestimate him in the slightest
@ACE_Lock the title does underestimate him Barou is superior because of his consistency and 1 on 1. But if you had a great playmaker behind them both Shidou is just a plain easier player to mass produce goals with.
Eh I don’t believe the playmaker part and Shidou being easier.Barou went made All of His 5 Shots on Target and Scored 2 of those shots.So Barou went up against the best NEL and went 5/5 Target wise and 2/5 Goals/Shot Attempts wise.Shidou against the worse NEL team in Barcha with the greatest NEL playmaker in Charles went 3/12 on Target and 2/12 Goals/Attempts Wise.And mind you,you could take Sendou,Niko and Lorenzo and average out their playmaking stats and they still wouldn’t exceed Charles Playmaking Stats.So Barou with a worse playmaker can put up better numbers than Shidou.
@zhavierbrown4422 do you even watch actual football or have knowledge of the actual game? Shidou's playstyle makes it incredibly easy to make plays for him while Barou's require a more specific team style. Barou is objectivelly better but his playstyle requires him to either have the entire team built around him or take on the "wildcard" role like he did in the u20 match, he is also less affected by a great playmaker, while that means he is more independent it also means he does not get the multiplier it gives. Shidou is just way easier to build around and will grow a ton in production with a great playmaker.
@zhavierbrown4422I wouldn't say that analysis is fair as we don't know where or how shidou was shooting, as isagi said "shidou is an otherworldly bad shot taker and maker) plus we also know that he's nor very composed and will other than the crazy shots he alr takes, will shoot when he has no chance to score just cuz he's annoyed such as the shot reo blocked that gagamaru caught Plus in lit every match we've actually seen, shidou has had good accuracy Plus from what we've seen of charle's temperment, we don't know how many of those shots came from his passes as before the BM match, although he would pass to rin and shidou he seeking them out On the other hand barou has niko and lorenzowhonhave been shown to be incredible passers and aiku who is also a really good passer. He's has multiple high level tho not world-class passers Not saying shidou is better, Ik he's not. Just that that's not quite a fair argument
16:29 can’t recall the bastard vs Ubers match entirely but can we really consider Barou beating pre wild card Kuni in a physical battle an anti feat for Shidou because he got locked up by a perfected Noel Noa copy Kunigami?
I’m taking Barou over Shidou btw but honestly I feel like Shidou would’ve done much better at a different club he stood no chance when being in the same club as Isagi’s greatest rival. Hopefully he claps back in the future
That's a good point, bur Rin pointed out that in the NEL everyone increased dramatically their physicality and technicalities and thus i'd say Brou too increased his power, i didn't say he is stronger than Kunigami but definitely would give him a run for his money physically speaking
@@ACE_Lockbut by that logic shidou would've also improved physically. And though barou beat kuni on occasion in that match, kuni was too, unlike against shidou when he couldn't budge him. Not saying shidou wins overall but I would say he's still stronger than barou And I would say that using kuni's manmarking as an antifeat isn't quite fair as the same would happen to anyone who cant outmuscle or outspeed him which only a few such as chigiri could do Manmarking in general basically neutralizes the attacker when both sides are around the same level physically, kaiser and shidou are examples of that. Again, not saying shidou is better, just that some of the arguments aren't quite fair
@ACE_Lock kunagami specifically increased his physicality more than every in the NEL. Where isagi and friends were inititialy struggling to keep up physically with the academy players and pros. While kunagami was keeping up easily from the beginning even before there NEL training after he came out of wild card. Kunagami clearly has physicality above everyone else
@OmegaLeonidas1610you forget barou held back two world class physical defenders to score a goal, not outrun them, literally held them back. Barou is definitely stronger, then when it comes to kunigami man marking barou, Barou is shown to be an amazing dribbler on multiple occasions so he’s still going to be able to get passes him regardless unlike shidou
One correction, Barou is considered one of the geniuses as well. Inchapter 281, when describing the relationship between prodigies and geniuses, Barou is clearly shown with Nagi and Meguru while the dialogue discusses the singularities geniuses are.
I mean At that point isagi considered Kaiser too to be Genius, the way Barou plays he is deff more of a prodigy to me, even what would make him a genius was something he worked for and not born with like Nagi Loki and Rin
If Kuni couldn't handle Shidou for half a match it clearly means Shidou has extreme endurance. Same you compare Kunigami 2nd selection to Kunigami in flow state in NEL. He got DESTROYED even physically by Shidou during 2nd selection...
He wasn't destroyed rather he was shocked at how a skinny looking dude packs quite the punch But i def see ur point however if Kunigami was able to lock Barou Noa would have used him as such, but no he knew he would give him a run for his money but never be able to stop the king
@@ACE_Lock question - after Isagi’s 3rd blocked shot on Barou, why would Noel Noa call timeout and tell Kunigami to mark Barou from now on? lol he never asked him to bc he didn’t need that at the time 🤷🏽♂️
Ummm did we see the panels?. Shidou was getting cooked in his own strength. Ariel plays. Every ariel ball kuni smoked shidou in. Shidou was just outclassed in physical stats. Since barou is also physically inferior to kuni in every way as well as shidou he would get cooked by shidou
I suggest that you put at the end of the video an evaluation of basic abilities such as passing, shooting, etc., and that the evaluation be in letters like A S S-
that's the sad part, the Hiori we are seeing in PXG is no where near the shadow of the one we saw at the end of Ubers, Niko and Lorenzo getting nerfed for that final play to make sense also sucked tbh that's the lowest point of all of BLUE LOCK to me, glad PXG game is fire man
I mean, for me, it's going to be Nagi, Reo, Bachira, Chigiri Shidou would be after them together with Kunigami I think it makes sense that the author will create Kunigami vs Shidou arc
@@skyrisetempest1452 with his physique range and the chop dribble you can slot barou anywhere across the attack. target man would limit the skillset he’s been honing since a child. he’s more technical and mobile than a brute who has to be a target guy is
A couple of comments/ questions in no particular order: - Barou is not confirmed as the top scorer in NEL. Rin has 6 and Barou has 5. It is more likely than not that he scored a goal against Manshine, but until confirmed we shouldn’t jump the gun. - In the question of physical strength we have a direct frame of reference in Kunigami. In the 3v3 Barou is outclassed in strength by Kunigami, this was team Reo’s whole strategy, using kuni to keep Barou out of his shooting range. This is further supported by the 1st Egoist Bible which names Kunigami as the strongest Blue Locker. In the 2v2 Kuni comments how he cannot budge Shidou, suggesting equal or greater strength. Post Wild Card, kuni gets a major buff which has resulted in him dominating Shidou. We don’t get a matchup between him and Barou, but I am certain it would look similar. - Good catch on the aerial battle, Barou doesn’t have many feats in air so it’s good to remember. That said, pre and post WC kuni have very different builds. The only two beating him in air currently are Aryu and maybe Aiku. - If you’re caught up with the manga, Yukimiya has also been revealed to possess PE. - On the topic of PE, it is not an unstoppable shot. Yukimiya, Barou, and Kaiser have all had their shots blocked. - Shidou likely has high endurance due to his ability outlast Kunigami in a battle of stamina. The same Kunigami who beat out Raichi (the stamina monster) in physical conditioning at the start of NEL. - On the topic of accuracy, Barou’s shots have historically been lacking, often striking the post. I think this has been rectified with the addition of PE to his arsenal, but he is on record as the only one of the top strikers to have been blocked by Blue Lock Man. - Regarding Shidou’s lack of accuracy, the only instance in the series supporting this idea is the comment made by Loki, which directly contradicts Shidou’s Penalty Perfection weapon. - Defensively, I think Shidou is severely underrated. In the PXG match we have seen him beaten numerous times by Kunigami, but in many of those instances, he was on the verge of creating a critical defensive opportunity. The two most notable of these being just prior to the Two Gun Volley goal and prior to Kaiser’s first Magnus attempt. That said, I do agree his actual marking technique is probably lacking and in a 1v1 would struggle with a physically superior opponent (whether Barou is physically superior… TBD). - In regards to unpredictability, I think these two are fairly matched, but I’d give the edge to Shidou. Barou’s takes shape in his general play and antagonistic synergy with his teammates. Shidou’s takes shape in his speed and shots, utilizing ambidexterity, shot angles/ styles, and positioning. - Barou does appear to have a greater level of adaptability. That said, we saw Shidou adapt in the U20 match. The PXG match would have been a perfect opportunity to see Shidou’s next growth spurt, but match focus has been pretty consistently geared towards the Isagi, Kaiser, and Rin deadlock.
The Egoist Bible is very unreliable.They have Tokimitsu as one of the physically strongest over Raichi but Raichi in the PXG match is able to overpower Toki easily,Despite in the last match struggling to stop Barou’s physicals whatsoever.And This would also means that WC Kuni is equal to Shidou in speed which makes no sense but it also means Shidou=Kaiser in Strength.But also Toki is able to physically weight Noa down.So strength scaling in bl can’t really be taken seriously cause it’s all over the place.Yuki despite keeping up with Chigiri’s almost top speed(Same with Kaiser) gets outspeed by Isagi later.
Also the whole thing about Kunigami outlasting Raichi is contradicted by the fact that Raichi hasn’t been Gassed out once during this current match while consistently defending the harder player in Rin.Also You say PE has been blocked..But only by Charles,Isagi and Kaiser who are top 3-5 MV users.Shidou isn’t that and for the most part his vision he would need to block PE sucks.Even then Barou’s accuracy in the NEL is better than Shidou’s.That Loki comment really hurt his overall consistency and finishing.
@zhavierbrown4422your wording is misleading. you’re saying the canonical thing published with the author’s approval is wrong. and your first point is that Toku is said to be stronger (obviously in reference to pre-NEL), but Raichi overpowers him 100 chapters later. that doesn’t make the egoist bible wrong, it’s just a different arc of the story.
actually although kuni was beating shidou if we are looking at each engagment they were relative with kuni having slight edge he was just clearing the ball in challenges which yes he did win but it wasnt like he was defenfisly stopping shidou per say and he ran out of stanima while shidou didnt
This video felt extremely biased Kunigami can never man mark Barou? So we’re forgetting the 2nd selection 3v3 (and nobody say old feats because this vid isn’t just NEL feats) Shidou can’t mark Barou? Who decided that he literally clamped Kuni and Reo while carrying igaguri and was the only person besides Aiku to even slow down destroyer Rin. Shidou’s defense isn’t the most elite but I doubt he’d be “helpless” against Barou
Where was Kuni in the Ubers game to mark barou ?? Did you even remember the performance of Kuni in the Ubers game ?? He is only notable feat was to block a barou shot was raichi and Yuki pressed barou
@@zerozero8540 was Kuni ordered by his master to man Mark Barou? Did Kuni have animosity towards Barou for eliminating him from blue lock? Stop the bias not the same situation at all
Why didn't Noa order him to stop Barou if he knew he can stop him? The answer is he didn't, Noa and Snuffy both were surprised by the level isagi and Barou achieved in that game and Noa knew Kunigami would really give Barou a hard time but he won't be able to stop him at the end of the day, unlike shidou whome he killed completely, you have to understand shidou is one of my favorites but the fact is he got shut down by Kunigami
I’d argue because Isagi was doing a damn good job stopping his attacks and Barou wasn’t viewed as big of a threat on goal. Remember, the Shidou x Charles chemical reaction was directly compared to the Isagi x Hiori chemical reaction at the end of Ubers which blew everyone away
@@ACE_Lockhe quite literally would seeing as he's better in every physical stat. I think he didn't tell kuni to bcuz isagi and kaiser were alr stopping almpst every opportunity barou had before he flipped the script
He was labled as self type Ego yes, and isagi said that geniuses are self type, but as the case was with Kaiser he was mistaken i guess, because looking at it, Barou's weapons stem from hard work and dedication and not really something he was born with Like Rin and Nagi I mean i could be wrong but we will see
@@jonasdrake211 Exactly my point, i think Isagi will discover another level to Ego types that will advance his understanding of prodigies and geniuses, because as i said he was wrong with Kaiser
1-Nah man i dont understand this barou glaze he has literal team working for him in which there is lorezo who is new gen 2-shidou has to sub in and out with rin after every 15 mins before the pxg vs bastard munchen match 3-Shidou is more faster bether in heading positioning composure finisher and the best in penalty box a true stiker 4-Dont forget shidou is the only character not get a backstory upgrade or plot armour 5-he is only player to score against the world five besides rin with a worst team he was immediately considered a threat by noel noa so he asked kunigami to keep him in check which he drained out kunigami whenever he touches the ball in the pxg match he has three players on him 6-that was my opinion but dont say he cannot be compared to barous dont forget when he had the whole team working for him he scoredtwo goals in 45 mins😊
1- Ubers failled to score the second goal until Barou lead them, it's a feat for him if u think about it 2- it just means Rin is better since he is giving better results 3- shidou is faster yeah i never said otherwise 4- plot armor is not my or our issue, we judge based of feats whether with plot armor or not 5- We are comparing them in the NEL which Barou has improved insanely from that game against the world 5 6- scored two goals vs Barcha man while having Charles the best passer we saw in blue lock Barou scored 3
Hell yeah it isn't, Shidou wins. He's been pulling Barou's numbers in the NEL with only 2 people (two and a half with Charles) feeding him rather than 10. And while competing with Blue Lock's number 1, Rin Itoshi. Don't let the artist fool you by never drawing him play, Shidou is just goated.
He isnt pulling Barou numbers, and while before the Bastard match he did have the entire team surrounding him, including one of the best passers Charles
@@Fawaz-e4kI'm not agreeing with them but he didn't really. He shared with rin in the 1st match and only jad his system for 15 minutes in the manshine match, that isn't really much of an opportunity
@@ACE_Lock You spent the video claiming Barou beats Kunigami in jumps while showing a 2nd selection panel 🤡 Even being beaten once by post-wild card Kunigami doesn't dispell the fact that Shidou has the best aerial feats in the series by far.
Bro stop glazing on barou as an unpredictable player tell me what is more un predictable than a guy who can score in any position in the penalty box Barou having predator eyes and shidou having awareness is very useful for any team centered arond them For me i rather have shidou in my penalty box finishing passes like actual strikers in real life football
That's not the unpredictability we are discussing, Shidou's plays are instinctive and can be countered like we sae Kunigami do, Barou's unpredictability is his ability to find a path that no one can think of when all paths are dead
Barou has no versatility or adaptability. In a real match, he is leagues below shido, cuz shido doesn’t wreck teams. Shido can make a chemical reaction with anyone whose ego he respects. Barou had to get held out of the U20 match until ego was desperate and willing to try anything
For me it is really closse, like almost a tie beacouse: 1 Barou peak is probably a lil better than Shidou peak but while Barou peak is in Ubers with a whole team for him, Shidou peak is being used helped only by Sae, and if you think the help is similar what could be debatable you have to compare Lorenzo, Niko, Aiku and Snuffy,s plans with Sae and the 3 defenders of the iron wall (that don,t play exactly for Shidou) and in this comparation I think Barou is helped more by far so it is difficult to say who is better in peak. 2 Maybe Barou has more gols in NEL but Shidou managed to do that scores with Rin in his team and Barou with Ubers, and while I can see Shidou making an incredible performance in Barou,s rol in Ubers I don,t see Barou doing much dealing with Rin, at least not more than one gol each match and that obviusly without crazy Rin. 3 The author consistely puts Barou under Shidou except in nel and by plot Shidou just seems better by ego and other characters way to talk about him 4 Thought I might seem in shidou,s side, I think we can,t give it to him cause Barou just seems better in so much senses like dribling, ofensive hability, physicality and even defense (Thought they both suck) maybe Shidou is just better in passing and speed but that si debatable (And they are bouth peak shooting) also we can,t ignore that shidou needs more help while playing 5 With all this facts I think is preatty debatable and almost a tie, Barou is my second favourite character (After Nagi) but If i had to bet I would even give it a little bit more to shidou just beacouse of plot, but I can understand every opinion. I haven,t even watched the vid yet cause I can,t be with audio right now but if something changes mi mind or I disagree I will put it in comentes, thanks for this kind of videos is great seeing more blue lock content in this plataform and sorry for my bad english.
I mean if you talk about physicality I see Shidou taking flexibility, agility by mile, Barou taking strenght and power, Shidou taking speed and acceleration
yo exe here i have commented on many of your vids,big FAN btw i would like to address one of shidous killing factors which was when he was man-marked by kunigami. ik ik the counter arguemenf would be "kunigami is striker not a defender" and yes you are indeed correct however many character (or the players seeking the striker position) have defended multiple times especially kaiser and isagi even rin and barou defended too so i think that one can be overlooked. finally the biggest one in my opinion is shidou is only good with good midfielders. although true howvever the same for isagi too. isagi doesn't really on the midfielder too much but in the ubers he needed hiori to win the game since kurona has no metavision and was injured who was also his insane support and the main reason for these insane supports was because isagi brain was too big for anyone and the same for shidou but in shiodus case he was too wild and actually shidou and isagi are pretty similar with having off the ball and insane ways of shooting (i am not saying shidou stacks to isagi because NO) but in short shidous supposed downgrade should be overlooked as in the situation he was in kunigami was his don lorenzo with him being physically mor dominant even with his high special awareness. (i am not a shidou fan but i just think its unfair and i apologize for the yap)
So actually Kunigami was discovered by Ego and Noa to fit better in the middle, as for shidou being good with good midfielders, that's a wrong way to put it, he is great with anyone really, but completely broken with the right midfielder, unfortunately the Current Barou is a leader which means he can have a shit team and still lead them to success and thus he is far more reliable than Shidou
Before watching the video: Barou: better overall playing ability (dribbling and defense), better physique, better steady growth Shidou: better scoring ability, doesnt hamper himself by refusing to pass, better "instinct" to find an ideal spot on the pitch Equal id say with different specialties After video: I forgot the sheer amount of anti-feats that shidou had in the NEL. I'd agree barou wins but its by no means "not even close" as the title suggests. He may not be as hype anymore but shidou is still insane.
Barou has better scoring ability than shidou Better instinct is overrated Even player like Kuni can shutdown him and isagi didn't even see shidou as a treath one time in this match if barou is on the S tier shidou is on the A tier
@@zerozero8540isagi didn't see him as a threat BECAUSE kuni was there. U forgetting noa assigned that task for kuni cuz he knew it would be over if some1 wasn't on his @ss 24/7? And u say even kuni like the exact same thing wouldn't happen to barou seeing as kuni is better in every physical stat
@OmegaLeonidas1610 exactly 😂 and bachira is a better dribbler than barou, yet kuni was able to frustrate him somewhat vs barcha. facts of the matter is barou would get locked up by kuni the same way shidou was. most of ubers kuni/noa left barou to Isagi, evident by the 4 blocked shots he had. in fact barou got a shot blocked by kuni when he wasn’t even his mark lol he just read the path
To me barou is the superior striker. If i had to bet between the two who would win the golden boot it would be barou however shidou would have the better highlight reel. Barou to me is probably the best centre forward in blue lock. Hes strong enough to use his physicality, is capable of working in prearanged systems but also hijacking them on the fly to create something new and is developing a charisma that allows his team mates to give their all on his behalf. Rin is probably the best overall player in blue lock but id probably keep him as the 10 or attacking midfielder
This feels so biased in favour of barou. You can't possibly compare 2nd selection kunigami performance against barou and make it comparable to post wild-card bloodlusted kunigami out for revenge against shidou. I would not be surprised if kunigami was in flow trying to shut down that devil who brought him to hell in 2nd selection. Hell shidou should also get extreme endurance who drained kunigami so much just trying to clamp him down (somebody who got physique comparable to noa).
Noa knew of Kunigami's specs yet he didn't put him on Barou knowing that even though he'll give him hell he can't stop him, infact if isagi didn't score he knew they can't stop Barou forever since they only did due to hiori's mv Surprise and Ubers will evolve to that That's totally different that Shidou whom got shut down by one player not a team just 1 player p
I think barou currently edges him out in individiual abillity but shidou has higher peaks with team play. Shidou can repplicate the instinctual plays that are the level Isagi needed to edge out barou that game and Rins pre destroyer mode level. Overall id rate them right next too eachother right under the ng11 tier
@@ACE_Lock for not even half a game?? and decimated how when Kuni barely edged Shidou in getting to the spot for ball clearances. Decimated is what Lorenzo was doing to Kaiser. Kuni had to get subbed bc he physically couldn’t mark him for the rest of the match and he didn’t start marking Shidou either.
Im not sayin barou is better or shidou is better but even tho barou scored more he has no one to compete with i mean honestly if barou had rin on his team and had to split the team like him yeah ion know if he gettin that many i mean he for sure ain't getting 7 but the fact shidou gotta compete with rin for goals legit just sets him up for failure
U can’t tho if u played football u would understand that strikers have different roles the word pure striker is a substitute word for the a “full 9” or a “9” it’s a bad misconception cuz ppl think bl fans made it up just for shidou
@@ACE_Lock no - when trying shots that Loki wanted him to try, opposite of his weapon he missed. and 3 of 12 being on target in match is great accuracy for strikers. 33% on SSS+ difficult athletic, probably aerial plays or heavily marked. be fr
Yo i had a question for you, do you think it would make sense for Isagi to also have predator eyes in the future? I am thinking when BL is up against the New Gen 11 GK would make the most sense
I don't see it, simply because he has no use for it, his plays consist of him freeing himself in the penalty box to have an almost 100% scoring chance, and there why would he need the Predator eyes?
I feel like there was so much more detail and effort put in to this video, which show how much you are improving 16:01 and the animation shows, which is amazing 😊 I always get excited seeing you post a new video, thanks
I base all of my videos on feats and if i include any speculation i state that, like Lorenzo and Karasu's Assassin's eye also i didn't include a weakness to Shidou which is him getting aggressive and potentially getting red cards because he seemed to have calmed down in the NEL due to the level of the games being exciting for him
Barou takes too many categories, he has one of the best field IQ feats during the Ubers match. Has two distinct play-styles which both yield incredible results. Has had world class tactics drilled into him. And has the best striker temperament in the u20 category worldwide, which includes Kaiser and Rin. This wasn’t fair.
can’t credit Barou’s IQ without giving Shidou his props. Shidou was able to make a read on a play that led to Charles’ first chemical reaction by outplaying Rin when it came to positioning. Then finished that play on a diving header 1v1 against Gagamaru. the calculations it took to link up with the contrarian himself from build up to goal while exceeding Rin Itoshi is a football marvel. And doing it in a true 1v1, not a cluttered penalty area like how PE Barou lurks for blindspots.
@@noaworldTM He admitted there was no calculations to that. He was just following his own instincts. Which are world class but Shidou doesn't care for that stuff (tactics or calculations). He's even surprised when the ball was where he wanted it to be.
There was definitely abit of Shido downplay in this match, considering while Barou beat Kunigami in the air that Kunigami was before his emo arc, that Kunigami was literally MANHANDLED in every physical aspect by shidou literally, shidou was much faster,much stronger just outright stronger than Kunigami in their first encounter, not to mention while Barou and shidou literally and probably jump about as high Shidou lost to a FAR superior version of Kunigami while Barou won against a week Kunigami that got dominated by Shidou + shidou has more feats and higher quality feats so in conclusion: Shidou gaps in jumping, gaps in flexibility shidou is probably the best at dealing with the ball in the air due to his insane acrobatic ability, shidou is also much faster idk if the Author outright just forgot this but Shidou is supposed to have insane acceleration, shidou is also far superior in Endurance and stamina, Physicality goes to shidou with Barou only taking physical strength and even that’s a contest considering shidou outright made Kunigami look like a child interms of physical strength. Shidou is a better striker than Barou due to the fact Shidou not only has to share Goals with arguably the best player in blue lock Rin Itoshi, but Barou also has an entire team backing him. When ALL these factors are actually taken into consideration which you didn’t, which is why I believe there is an insane amount of Barou glazing and shidou downplay in this video, shidou probably takes reliability considering without the WHOLE team sucking up to Barou he has shown he is just as big a problem as he is an asset his lack of cooperation is not good football is a sport of 11 people not. Shidous near guaranteed goal in the penalty Area is also far better than Barous golden zone which again is so easily countered by someone simply being in front of Barou literally just predict the line of the shot which nearly always follows the same path a curve to the top right corner. Shidou without having to share goals and glory with Rin, with an entire team backing him like Barou, would absolutely SMOCK Barou any day of the week interms of being a striker, also the goal hunger stuff no way you just gonna say Barou is the most hungry the most unreasonable doesnt mean most hungry, outright Rin and shidou himself who literally lives for scoring are at least as hungry., so in conclusion the Barou glazation has to stop 👽
When did shidou ever man handle Kunigami? If you reread their game he didn't beat him physically at all, even the goal shown Kunigami didn't jump cause he thought shidou can't shoot directly, there Shidou's agility beat him But shidou couldn't overpower Kunigami not out run him Don't say random shit for the sake of the argument
Okay I have a question about these two, have they ever even met or had an interaction together in the show or manga?? If they have, can someone tell me the episode/chapter??
they met, played against one another 2 times, but never really interacted, mainly because Barou is a player who keeps to himself, he only interacts with Isagi Rin and Nagi cause they annoy the shit out of him lmao
@ When were those 2 times that they’d played against each other and you’re telling me that in the entire series they’ve never had a 1 to 1 interaction/dialogue?
I feel like what shidou is lacking rn is his ability to score goals on his own at a certain point. Since the U-20 match, it seems he is too dependent on there being a really good midfielder or passer to feed him balls for him to get shots off. Without that, his playing style seems incomplete
16:29 we have to remember that Barou went against Kunigami BEFORE he was trained in the wild card and became a beast, which is why he could man mark shidou like that so I wouldn’t use it as a point for Barou. Also, you keep bringing up “unpredictability” but it really isn’t that great, sure Barou can score one goal from being unpredictable but after that, he’s then predictable, like in the third selection match between Isagi and rin’s team, after Barou devoured Isagi, rin admitted it got him by surprise but after that rin knew that it was an option, making Barou no longer unpredictable. Barou is unpredictable for one play, then whoever he’s up against, especially someone with good knowledge, wouldn’t be surprised by him.
One more question who's going to be the better Right Winger and who's going to be the better player based on FULL POTENTIAL REACHED between Barou and Nagi😁 I believe that they both will be new gen XI level after the U20 World Cup🔥💪🏼
He never shown anything remotely close to using them except the design and Loki saying that he needs to increase his accuracy means he 100% doesn't have them, well yet
You guys in the comments who do you think will be the better player in the future based on FULL POTENTIAL REACHED and who'll be the better striker/NO9 between Rin and Kaiser Give me your reasons for both points🔥👍🏻 Btw Kaiser is 20yrs old now(25 Dec) but he's still an insane talent and a crazy good player🔥😎 Even though isagi's my favourite player I have to say that Rin is amazing and he's a new gen XI level player now at only 16yrs🔥✨💪
Ace who do you think will be the better player in the future😉 Charles or Barou Charles🔥✨(Metavision IQ Dribbling+Skills Passing Crossing Shooting Free kicks Reflex and Technique mastered Scoring goals but having way more assists and a good defence) his probably going to be the 2nd best midfielder in the world/history🔥 Barou😎🔥⚽💪(Predator Eye Dribbling+Skills IQ Shooting and Technique mastered Speed and Strength plus scoring way more goals)
Using Kunigami as an opponent for physical battles is unfair since Barou only did those things to pre-wildcard Kunigami vs Shidou faced a Wildcard Kunigami and kept up, but dogwalked pre-wildcard kunigami in the 2nd selection, so I think thats a bit unfair, I'd say Shidou and Barou are equal in physical strength🤷♂️
Idk about physicality and jumping because shidou only got outcast by in those area by wildcard kunigami and barou only beat sage 2 kunigami and wildcard is much stronger so more jumping
@@alejandrorose9895 he doesn't, loki saying he needs to work on his accuracy confirms it, the design for his eyes is the same as Kurona just an artistc choice
Isagi will definitely be new gen XI level after the U20 World Cup but I wonder will my boy become a quality passer as well and Rin Will probably be world class just like Sae and still be a few levels infront of isagi🥲
Yo Ace here's a question for you who do u think will be closer to the title of best player in the world(EOS) and imagine them at their prime🔥👍🏻 Prime Sae⚽🧠🔥😎(Vision IQ Dribbling+Skills Passing Crossing Shooting Free kicks Reflex and Technique mastered plus his perfect kick accuracy scoring great goals and making way more assists plus a good defence)I believe that Sae will become the best midfielder in the world/history😎 Charles🧠✨ will be able to keep up with an awakened Sae but Sae will still be the best Or Prime Loki🔥😎⚽✨(his unbeatable speed stamina agility endurance Dribbling+Skills+Shooting+Passing+Reflex mastered Strength Scoring too much goals having tons of assists too and a great defence) Give me a few reasons for your pick please🔥👍🏻
I agree but the winged demon beats the king in aerial battle. Because that Kunigami who beat him was much stronger all aroud than the one against Barou.
i didn't mean for it to be that Barou would destroy Shidou in the Air but he'd give him a run for his money and def would have a great chance at stopping him
@@ACE_Lock I didn't infer that he would so that is just stupid. Like he could certainly pose a serious problem to Shidou but he would not win an aerial battle.
Something funny to think about is even if a team loses while shutting down Shidou. Him essentially getting blue balled could eventually make him crashout and get a red card or even banned from playing.
I actually recorded a portion on that but removed it because he is enjoying rhe high level in the NEL and won't get aggressive, but i can see em getting bored in the future flipping and ending his career
Barou is top 3, he outplayed snuffy and Noa, scored literally every single goal that ubers EVER scored except 1(By Sendou), Blocked shots as a defender in BM, outplayed Isagi, and hes overall much better
First off, the only reason why he scored every single goal for ubers was due to the whole team being made for him being the only striker. Also him outplayed stuffy, and Noa was due to stuffy actually encouraging him to shoot, so he really didn't outplay them. He just was helped by stuffy again.. he only outplayed isagi once, and that was one trick that he could pull off, and Isagi isn't falling for that no more..
So shidou is obviously a Genius and barou is hinted at being one too But looking at the fact he built himself through hard training i don't see em as a pure genius maybe in the future wime will get a new Ego category that explains things like this
the KING is better in ALMOST all aspects. Shidou got a better shooting style on air and he can jump real high thats that. while also having played with geniuses who gave him endless passes such as Sae and Charles. while keeping in mind he missed many chances as Loki mentioned. from the start Barou made it all by his own no matter who played with him (before U20 vs japan) while on this current Arc Barou got a team that tried to revolve around him (but dont get it twisted they were holding him back) as well. he could have scored even more as he proved to snuffy that he will make his own way of playstyle and won that battle against snuffy which is MAD. shoot range, mentality, movements, physicality, shoot power, personality inside the field, precision, killer instincts second to none. scoring half the chanes that Shidou got. NOW imagine Barou cooperating with someone like Sae or Charles.
First of all, we have never seen Barou jump bro. Also, author is always trying to fit Shidou with Rin and Isagi, he is trying to portray him as their equal(he is failing to do that), but Ig we will see. I would prefer to see Shidou in Barcha, he learnt nothing anything in PXG, so for now I agree that Barou is better.
@@ACE_Lock If it's just marking, Kunigami would be able to restrain almost any character, unless they specialize in off the ball. We have seen that Bachira and many other characters were not able to mark Shidou. Kunigami is just physically superior to Shidou and it makes sense that he is able to mark him. And, of course, Shidou is being sidelined for Rin right now since Rin is the main rival of this arc. Author is doing a poor job with Shidou right now, it's like he does not know what to do with the character.
Your point about jumping doesn’t make sense, barou beat second selection kunigami in jumping one time, kunigami in that same match scored a header on three people including barou, he then got stronger in the wildcard and that’s the kuni that beat shido. So saying barou jumps higher than shido Is baseless
After seeing these comments. Please yall reread Ubers Vs BM.They literally tell you why Kunigami can’t mark someone like Barou and yall are saying that he could’ve when the story litterally tells you otherwise.😭
I agree Barou wins but one issue everyone always has with the matchups is the deletion of every other player like it’s a DBZ fight. Shidou is never going to enter a game without an elite playmaker. Even if you take it to the worst one he could possible have it would be Isagi who In universe is already hyped up as a top MF. Obviously, that extends to Isagi and Kaiser vs Rin talks as well since deleting the team aspect from Football is just absurd even in a series about Ego and sports psychology. Yes Barou will always beat Shidou 1 v 1 and Rin will beat Kaiser or Isagi 1 v 1 but Shidou has a 50/50 shot of being the MOM vs Barou (since he’ll always have an amazing playmaker) and Isagi will beat Rin about 70% of the time with their current iterations.
I'm curious when Isagi in verse has ever been hyped as an MF. Is there a single instance? I can't remember one. He's only ever been hyped as a striker. Ex. Sae and Snuffy are the obvious instances that come to mind.
If you notice in the video I spoke of that as a plus, shidou can score regardless but he shines like a star with a midfielder which idk, i feel like it's the same case with isagi, having Hiori was what saved him and BM against Ubers and what allowed him to score, in fact if it wasnt for Kunigami Shodou wouldhave stopped him, which means Isagi too needs a team, which is the case for Barou as well I think where the difference lies is in the player's ability to lead said team like Barou and Isagi did
Maybe be before the NEL it was close As nowadays barou is on whole different category than shidou He is better scorer ,better QI ,better leader,has got the egocentrism. Isagi rin and barou are on different level compare to the others BL players
Sure they didn't but when I didn't work he lead them to a new path where they dominated and had it not for the surprise of Hiori having Meta-vision they would have won 100% even Isagi and Lorenzo said that, isagi straight up said i can visualize beating Barou so i'll just have to use Hiori to end the game before he scores, and ngl that was brilliant from isagi but more importantly proves how much of menace Barou is
I don't Think Shidou is in a different category, Shidou is on The same level as Rin, Loki used strategies using The 2 of them. Rin is better, but Shidou is still a monster. For me the top five strikers in Blue Lock are Rin, Shidou, Yukimia, Barou and Nagi. Isagi for me is a midfielder who can create openings for attack, as a Striker he is mediocre, he is Just like Sae for me (but waaaay worse). He can't be a Striker with The abillities he has now.
@@vinichacal shidou on the same lvl as rin 😭🤣🤣 Shidou glazers are amazing Ptddr Shidou exist there because loki took the decision to build a too system if it was a pure competition like in the bastard vs PXG Shidou wouldn't get 100 M bird
First & Nice Video Brother
Thank u Brother
NOOOOOO BRO IVE BEEN MAKING A WHY SHIDOU VS BAROU IS WAY CLOSER THAN YALL THINK NOW YOU DROP THIS HEAT 😭😭
RIP bro, i mean i made a post in my channel saying i'll be making this vid
Still sorry bro
Shidou Vs barou is NOT close
Barou clears imo, Shidou is a goal hanger
I agree with you
Barou has a team centered around him while shidou has actual competition on his team
Crazy to think barou and shidou have never even interacted
@@TheTrueStrongest they probably did in the 3rd selection.
I rhink Barou's mentality kept him from interacting with 70% of the players he would have other wise
Because Barou is fully self-centered, he brutally forces the universe to revolve around him whether they want it or not. Other self-centered people don’t see any benefits in Barou, because he always wants to be the main star, and if he gets the ball, he will become the main star which is what other self-centered player like Shidou wants to be. You’ll also realize that most extremely self-centered ego players don’t interact with each others as often unless they’re in the same team, which only leads to a rivalry
An example of 2 extremely self-centered players interacting: Rin and Shidou 3rd selection, Isagi and Barou on the same team. All of them aimed towards their own goals. Barou, being known as the most selfish, self-centered player here, doesn’t have interest for the opposing team whether he wins or lose, unless it’s the one person he wants to devour(Isagi)
Keep in mind, barou has a whole team playing around him, trying to give him goals. While shidou is sharing a team with rin, going goal for goal.
You also need to remember that in the u20 game ,the team revolved around shidou and we see that shidou isn't much of a team player . So even if pxg revolved around him there wouldn't be much difference. For shidou it's 1 vs all .Shidou works properly only with a great passer whereas barou doesn't. Barou can work with any team and manage it to be the best like a king.
Loki commented on the amount of times, he had goal attempts and failed them, without a world class passer he can't do much for himself
Keep in mind that Barou actually worked all his body for the goals meanwhile Shidou sold multiple goals while having Charles feed him lethal passes. And plus, Shidou stays in the field and when he does, it revolves around him as well.
In pxg shidou and rin were substituting with each other every 15 mins. Only in bastard match they played together.
Shidou only really gets goals from getting fed passes, and when there’s one guy on him he can’t do anything basically the whole game, also he kinda missed 10 shots in one game in the nel
I don’t think Barou beats Shidou in jumping height because the Kunigami Shidou was going against was the Kunigami who beat the wild card but Barou beat the less physical version. I also think this because of Shidou’s Big Bang Drive: when Gagamaru clears the ball telling the Blue lock Team to move up signifying a high pass Shidou jumps up in the air and lands a bicycle kick.
Maybe yeah, i don't mind this actually
Yeah true but that was only when shidou was in the flow state. And he hasn’t been able to use it since. But barou’s predator eyes are much more reliable than shidou’s flow
@AlanUhiaraI don’t think flow state enhances physical abilities more so reaction time and skill.
Also it was talking just about jump height, so predator eyes isn’t a factor
It is closer than people are willing to admit. Both are great who should not be underestimated.
(As for they scored in every game they played that applies to Bachira and Kaiser too, not only Rin and Barou)
Dont get me wrong, Barou still wins but people both overestimate him and underestimate Shidou
I was not talking in the NEL bro, Bachira had many games with no goals, as for Kaiser he aint from BL
also i like Shidou a lot i didn't underestimate him in the slightest
@ACE_Lock the title does underestimate him
Barou is superior because of his consistency and 1 on 1. But if you had a great playmaker behind them both Shidou is just a plain easier player to mass produce goals with.
Eh I don’t believe the playmaker part and Shidou being easier.Barou went made All of His 5 Shots on Target and Scored 2 of those shots.So Barou went up against the best NEL and went 5/5 Target wise and 2/5 Goals/Shot Attempts wise.Shidou against the worse NEL team in Barcha with the greatest NEL playmaker in Charles went 3/12 on Target and 2/12 Goals/Attempts Wise.And mind you,you could take Sendou,Niko and Lorenzo and average out their playmaking stats and they still wouldn’t exceed Charles Playmaking Stats.So Barou with a worse playmaker can put up better numbers than Shidou.
@zhavierbrown4422 do you even watch actual football or have knowledge of the actual game?
Shidou's playstyle makes it incredibly easy to make plays for him while Barou's require a more specific team style.
Barou is objectivelly better but his playstyle requires him to either have the entire team built around him or take on the "wildcard" role like he did in the u20 match, he is also less affected by a great playmaker, while that means he is more independent it also means he does not get the multiplier it gives. Shidou is just way easier to build around and will grow a ton in production with a great playmaker.
@zhavierbrown4422I wouldn't say that analysis is fair as we don't know where or how shidou was shooting, as isagi said "shidou is an otherworldly bad shot taker and maker) plus we also know that he's nor very composed and will other than the crazy shots he alr takes, will shoot when he has no chance to score just cuz he's annoyed such as the shot reo blocked that gagamaru caught
Plus in lit every match we've actually seen, shidou has had good accuracy
Plus from what we've seen of charle's temperment, we don't know how many of those shots came from his passes as before the BM match, although he would pass to rin and shidou he seeking them out
On the other hand barou has niko and lorenzowhonhave been shown to be incredible passers and aiku who is also a really good passer. He's has multiple high level tho not world-class passers
Not saying shidou is better, Ik he's not. Just that that's not quite a fair argument
16:29 can’t recall the bastard vs Ubers match entirely but can we really consider Barou beating pre wild card Kuni in a physical battle an anti feat for Shidou because he got locked up by a perfected Noel Noa copy Kunigami?
I’m taking Barou over Shidou btw but honestly I feel like Shidou would’ve done much better at a different club he stood no chance when being in the same club as Isagi’s greatest rival. Hopefully he claps back in the future
That's a good point, bur Rin pointed out that in the NEL everyone increased dramatically their physicality and technicalities and thus i'd say Brou too increased his power, i didn't say he is stronger than Kunigami but definitely would give him a run for his money physically speaking
@@ACE_Lockbut by that logic shidou would've also improved physically.
And though barou beat kuni on occasion in that match, kuni was too, unlike against shidou when he couldn't budge him.
Not saying shidou wins overall but I would say he's still stronger than barou
And I would say that using kuni's manmarking as an antifeat isn't quite fair as the same would happen to anyone who cant outmuscle or outspeed him which only a few such as chigiri could do
Manmarking in general basically neutralizes the attacker when both sides are around the same level physically, kaiser and shidou are examples of that.
Again, not saying shidou is better, just that some of the arguments aren't quite fair
@ACE_Lock kunagami specifically increased his physicality more than every in the NEL. Where isagi and friends were inititialy struggling to keep up physically with the academy players and pros. While kunagami was keeping up easily from the beginning even before there NEL training after he came out of wild card. Kunagami clearly has physicality above everyone else
@OmegaLeonidas1610you forget barou held back two world class physical defenders to score a goal, not outrun them, literally held them back. Barou is definitely stronger, then when it comes to kunigami man marking barou, Barou is shown to be an amazing dribbler on multiple occasions so he’s still going to be able to get passes him regardless unlike shidou
One correction, Barou is considered one of the geniuses as well. Inchapter 281, when describing the relationship between prodigies and geniuses, Barou is clearly shown with Nagi and Meguru while the dialogue discusses the singularities geniuses are.
I mean At that point isagi considered Kaiser too to be Genius, the way Barou plays he is deff more of a prodigy to me, even what would make him a genius was something he worked for and not born with like Nagi Loki and Rin
If Kuni couldn't handle Shidou for half a match it clearly means Shidou has extreme endurance.
Same you compare Kunigami 2nd selection to Kunigami in flow state in NEL. He got DESTROYED even physically by Shidou during 2nd selection...
He wasn't destroyed rather he was shocked at how a skinny looking dude packs quite the punch
But i def see ur point however if Kunigami was able to lock Barou Noa would have used him as such, but no he knew he would give him a run for his money but never be able to stop the king
@@ACE_Lock question - after Isagi’s 3rd blocked shot on Barou, why would Noel Noa call timeout and tell Kunigami to mark Barou from now on? lol he never asked him to bc he didn’t need that at the time 🤷🏽♂️
@@noaworldTMthat's what I've been SAYING😭
Ummm did we see the panels?. Shidou was getting cooked in his own strength. Ariel plays. Every ariel ball kuni smoked shidou in. Shidou was just outclassed in physical stats. Since barou is also physically inferior to kuni in every way as well as shidou he would get cooked by shidou
Kuni locked him up for 10 chapters bro🌚
I suggest that you put at the end of the video an evaluation of basic abilities such as passing, shooting, etc., and that the evaluation be in letters like A S S-
That's actually a great idea, maybe worth a video on it's own, comparing the main strikers in Blue Lock
only thing stopping Barou from winning vs bastard was the Plot
that's the sad part, the Hiori we are seeing in PXG is no where near the shadow of the one we saw at the end of Ubers, Niko and Lorenzo getting nerfed for that final play to make sense also sucked
tbh that's the lowest point of all of BLUE LOCK to me, glad PXG game is fire man
6:12 "speaking of being a predator we are going to talk about-" DRAKE
lmao bro, had me in tears
From what little I know about the manga I feel like Shidou and Nagi are gonna become a focus point again soon.
I hope man
I mean, for me, it's going to be Nagi, Reo, Bachira, Chigiri
Shidou would be after them together with Kunigami
I think it makes sense that the author will create Kunigami vs Shidou arc
Barou style is target man striker. He got the size, strength and height
could play wing too
@ but he is more ideal in striker. Waste of his tall height and strength and shooting power for winger.
@ bachira and chigiri are pure winger.
@@skyrisetempest1452 with his physique range and the chop dribble you can slot barou anywhere across the attack. target man would limit the skillset he’s been honing since a child. he’s more technical and mobile than a brute who has to be a target guy is
@ also bachira can and does play centrally like more of a CAM
A couple of comments/ questions in no particular order:
- Barou is not confirmed as the top scorer in NEL. Rin has 6 and Barou has 5. It is more likely than not that he scored a goal against Manshine, but until confirmed we shouldn’t jump the gun.
- In the question of physical strength we have a direct frame of reference in Kunigami. In the 3v3 Barou is outclassed in strength by Kunigami, this was team Reo’s whole strategy, using kuni to keep Barou out of his shooting range. This is further supported by the 1st Egoist Bible which names Kunigami as the strongest Blue Locker. In the 2v2 Kuni comments how he cannot budge Shidou, suggesting equal or greater strength. Post Wild Card, kuni gets a major buff which has resulted in him dominating Shidou. We don’t get a matchup between him and Barou, but I am certain it would look similar.
- Good catch on the aerial battle, Barou doesn’t have many feats in air so it’s good to remember. That said, pre and post WC kuni have very different builds. The only two beating him in air currently are Aryu and maybe Aiku.
- If you’re caught up with the manga, Yukimiya has also been revealed to possess PE.
- On the topic of PE, it is not an unstoppable shot. Yukimiya, Barou, and Kaiser have all had their shots blocked.
- Shidou likely has high endurance due to his ability outlast Kunigami in a battle of stamina. The same Kunigami who beat out Raichi (the stamina monster) in physical conditioning at the start of NEL.
- On the topic of accuracy, Barou’s shots have historically been lacking, often striking the post. I think this has been rectified with the addition of PE to his arsenal, but he is on record as the only one of the top strikers to have been blocked by Blue Lock Man.
- Regarding Shidou’s lack of accuracy, the only instance in the series supporting this idea is the comment made by Loki, which directly contradicts Shidou’s Penalty Perfection weapon.
- Defensively, I think Shidou is severely underrated. In the PXG match we have seen him beaten numerous times by Kunigami, but in many of those instances, he was on the verge of creating a critical defensive opportunity. The two most notable of these being just prior to the Two Gun Volley goal and prior to Kaiser’s first Magnus attempt. That said, I do agree his actual marking technique is probably lacking and in a 1v1 would struggle with a physically superior opponent (whether Barou is physically superior… TBD).
- In regards to unpredictability, I think these two are fairly matched, but I’d give the edge to Shidou. Barou’s takes shape in his general play and antagonistic synergy with his teammates. Shidou’s takes shape in his speed and shots, utilizing ambidexterity, shot angles/ styles, and positioning.
- Barou does appear to have a greater level of adaptability. That said, we saw Shidou adapt in the U20 match. The PXG match would have been a perfect opportunity to see Shidou’s next growth spurt, but match focus has been pretty consistently geared towards the Isagi, Kaiser, and Rin deadlock.
The Egoist Bible is very unreliable.They have Tokimitsu as one of the physically strongest over Raichi but Raichi in the PXG match is able to overpower Toki easily,Despite in the last match struggling to stop Barou’s physicals whatsoever.And This would also means that WC Kuni is equal to Shidou in speed which makes no sense but it also means Shidou=Kaiser in Strength.But also Toki is able to physically weight Noa down.So strength scaling in bl can’t really be taken seriously cause it’s all over the place.Yuki despite keeping up with Chigiri’s almost top speed(Same with Kaiser) gets outspeed by Isagi later.
Also the whole thing about Kunigami outlasting Raichi is contradicted by the fact that Raichi hasn’t been Gassed out once during this current match while consistently defending the harder player in Rin.Also You say PE has been blocked..But only by Charles,Isagi and Kaiser who are top 3-5 MV users.Shidou isn’t that and for the most part his vision he would need to block PE sucks.Even then Barou’s accuracy in the NEL is better than Shidou’s.That Loki comment really hurt his overall consistency and finishing.
@zhavierbrown4422your wording is misleading. you’re saying the canonical thing published with the author’s approval is wrong. and your first point is that Toku is said to be stronger (obviously in reference to pre-NEL), but Raichi overpowers him 100 chapters later. that doesn’t make the egoist bible wrong, it’s just a different arc of the story.
actually although kuni was beating shidou if we are looking at each engagment they were relative with kuni having slight edge he was just clearing the ball in challenges which yes he did win but it wasnt like he was defenfisly stopping shidou per say and he ran out of stanima while shidou didnt
i sorry you did mention the stanima battle but still shidou was going semi realtive with kuni having slight edge in the battles for loose balls
This video felt extremely biased
Kunigami can never man mark Barou? So we’re forgetting the 2nd selection 3v3 (and nobody say old feats because this vid isn’t just NEL feats)
Shidou can’t mark Barou? Who decided that he literally clamped Kuni and Reo while carrying igaguri and was the only person besides Aiku to even slow down destroyer Rin. Shidou’s defense isn’t the most elite but I doubt he’d be “helpless” against Barou
Where was Kuni in the Ubers game to mark barou ??
Did you even remember the performance of Kuni in the Ubers game ??
He is only notable feat was to block a barou shot was raichi and Yuki pressed barou
@@zerozero8540 was Kuni ordered by his master to man Mark Barou? Did Kuni have animosity towards Barou for eliminating him from blue lock? Stop the bias not the same situation at all
Why didn't Noa order him to stop Barou if he knew he can stop him? The answer is he didn't, Noa and Snuffy both were surprised by the level isagi and Barou achieved in that game and Noa knew Kunigami would really give Barou a hard time but he won't be able to stop him at the end of the day, unlike shidou whome he killed completely, you have to understand shidou is one of my favorites but the fact is he got shut down by Kunigami
I’d argue because Isagi was doing a damn good job stopping his attacks and Barou wasn’t viewed as big of a threat on goal. Remember, the Shidou x Charles chemical reaction was directly compared to the Isagi x Hiori chemical reaction at the end of Ubers which blew everyone away
@@ACE_Lockhe quite literally would seeing as he's better in every physical stat. I think he didn't tell kuni to bcuz isagi and kaiser were alr stopping almpst every opportunity barou had before he flipped the script
affter so long he came back!
Sorry for the wait
bro shidou is literally the goat barou isn't even close
Bruh
8:58 wasn’t Barou labeled as one of the geniuses?
He was labled as self type Ego yes, and isagi said that geniuses are self type, but as the case was with Kaiser he was mistaken i guess, because looking at it, Barou's weapons stem from hard work and dedication and not really something he was born with Like Rin and Nagi
I mean i could be wrong but we will see
His ego is his mentality and will power so he a prodigy@@ACE_Lock
@@jonasdrake211 Exactly my point, i think Isagi will discover another level to Ego types that will advance his understanding of prodigies and geniuses, because as i said he was wrong with Kaiser
Never forget Isagi has a goal contribution every game he's in. Solos fr
1-Nah man i dont understand this barou glaze he has literal team working for him in which there is lorezo who is new gen
2-shidou has to sub in and out with rin after every 15 mins before the pxg vs bastard munchen match
3-Shidou is more faster bether in heading positioning composure finisher and the best in penalty box a true stiker
4-Dont forget shidou is the only character not get a backstory upgrade or plot armour
5-he is only player to score against the world five besides rin with a worst team he was immediately considered a threat by noel noa so he asked kunigami to keep him in check which he drained out kunigami whenever he touches the ball in the pxg match he has three players on him
6-that was my opinion but dont say he cannot be compared to barous dont forget when he had the whole team working for him he scoredtwo goals in 45 mins😊
1- Ubers failled to score the second goal until Barou lead them, it's a feat for him if u think about it
2- it just means Rin is better since he is giving better results
3- shidou is faster yeah i never said otherwise
4- plot armor is not my or our issue, we judge based of feats whether with plot armor or not
5- We are comparing them in the NEL which Barou has improved insanely from that game against the world 5
6- scored two goals vs Barcha man while having Charles the best passer we saw in blue lock
Barou scored 3
Bro I actually liked the old style you made the intro in. This one looks more metal😢
It will be back for other match ups dw
Hell yeah it isn't, Shidou wins. He's been pulling Barou's numbers in the NEL with only 2 people (two and a half with Charles) feeding him rather than 10. And while competing with Blue Lock's number 1, Rin Itoshi. Don't let the artist fool you by never drawing him play, Shidou is just goated.
He isnt pulling Barou numbers, and while before the Bastard match he did have the entire team surrounding him, including one of the best passers Charles
Naahh bro
@@Fawaz-e4kI'm not agreeing with them but he didn't really. He shared with rin in the 1st match and only jad his system for 15 minutes in the manshine match, that isn't really much of an opportunity
@@ACE_Lock You spent the video claiming Barou beats Kunigami in jumps while showing a 2nd selection panel 🤡 Even being beaten once by post-wild card Kunigami doesn't dispell the fact that Shidou has the best aerial feats in the series by far.
right lol 15mins of zantetsu + karasu then switch to Rin. still a $100¥ man. cmon lol
Bro stop glazing on barou as an unpredictable player tell me what is more un predictable than a guy who can score in any position in the penalty box
Barou having predator eyes and shidou having awareness is very useful for any team centered arond them
For me i rather have shidou in my penalty box finishing passes like actual strikers in real life football
That's not the unpredictability we are discussing, Shidou's plays are instinctive and can be countered like we sae Kunigami do, Barou's unpredictability is his ability to find a path that no one can think of when all paths are dead
Ngl shido kinda like me he got that sleeper build
Barou has no versatility or adaptability. In a real match, he is leagues below shido, cuz shido doesn’t wreck teams. Shido can make a chemical reaction with anyone whose ego he respects. Barou had to get held out of the U20 match until ego was desperate and willing to try anything
Ego was gonna use Shidou the same way because he doesn't fit with Rin and the rest of the Blue Lockers
This is straight up incorrect reread bluelock
bro totally forgot shidou was locked up in a detention room of sorts cuz of his misconduct.
bro the monk has the biggest ego by far
love your videos
Love your Eyes on them
Shidou getting that kitkat treatment
For me it is really closse, like almost a tie beacouse:
1 Barou peak is probably a lil better than Shidou peak but while Barou peak is in Ubers with a whole team for him, Shidou peak is being used helped only by Sae, and if you think the help is similar what could be debatable you have to compare Lorenzo, Niko, Aiku and Snuffy,s plans with Sae and the 3 defenders of the iron wall (that don,t play exactly for Shidou) and in this comparation I think Barou is helped more by far so it is difficult to say who is better in peak.
2 Maybe Barou has more gols in NEL but Shidou managed to do that scores with Rin in his team and Barou with Ubers, and while I can see Shidou making an incredible performance in Barou,s rol in Ubers I don,t see Barou doing much dealing with Rin, at least not more than one gol each match and that obviusly without crazy Rin.
3 The author consistely puts Barou under Shidou except in nel and by plot Shidou just seems better by ego and other characters way to talk about him
4 Thought I might seem in shidou,s side, I think we can,t give it to him cause Barou just seems better in so much senses like dribling, ofensive hability, physicality and even defense (Thought they both suck) maybe Shidou is just better in passing and speed but that si debatable (And they are bouth peak shooting) also we can,t ignore that shidou needs more help while playing
5 With all this facts I think is preatty debatable and almost a tie, Barou is my second favourite character (After Nagi) but If i had to bet I would even give it a little bit more to shidou just beacouse of plot, but I can understand every opinion.
I haven,t even watched the vid yet cause I can,t be with audio right now but if something changes mi mind or I disagree I will put it in comentes, thanks for this kind of videos is great seeing more blue lock content in this plataform and sorry for my bad english.
The title is just for the UA-cam algorithm
it's close tbh
I mean if you talk about physicality I see Shidou taking flexibility, agility by mile, Barou taking strenght and power, Shidou taking speed and acceleration
yo exe here i have commented on many of your vids,big FAN btw
i would like to address one of shidous killing factors which was when he was man-marked by kunigami. ik ik the counter arguemenf would be "kunigami is striker not a defender" and yes you are indeed correct however many character (or the players seeking the striker position) have defended multiple times especially kaiser and isagi even rin and barou defended too so i think that one can be overlooked. finally the biggest one in my opinion is shidou is only good with good midfielders. although true howvever the same for isagi too. isagi doesn't really on the midfielder too much but in the ubers he needed hiori to win the game since kurona has no metavision and was injured who was also his insane support and the main reason for these insane supports was because isagi brain was too big for anyone and the same for shidou but in shiodus case he was too wild and actually shidou and isagi are pretty similar with having off the ball and insane ways of shooting (i am not saying shidou stacks to isagi because NO) but in short shidous supposed downgrade should be overlooked as in the situation he was in kunigami was his don lorenzo with him being physically mor dominant even with his high special awareness. (i am not a shidou fan but i just think its unfair and i apologize for the yap)
So actually Kunigami was discovered by Ego and Noa to fit better in the middle, as for shidou being good with good midfielders, that's a wrong way to put it, he is great with anyone really, but completely broken with the right midfielder, unfortunately the Current Barou is a leader which means he can have a shit team and still lead them to success and thus he is far more reliable than Shidou
Let's See What You Cooked Up Ace
Enjoy
Shidou is represented as stronger
And blue lick isn’t inconsistent like demon slayer
I have not watched the vid yet tho
Ayy nice video ngl
Glad you enjoyed it
Before watching the video:
Barou: better overall playing ability (dribbling and defense), better physique, better steady growth
Shidou: better scoring ability, doesnt hamper himself by refusing to pass, better "instinct" to find an ideal spot on the pitch
Equal id say with different specialties
After video: I forgot the sheer amount of anti-feats that shidou had in the NEL. I'd agree barou wins but its by no means "not even close" as the title suggests. He may not be as hype anymore but shidou is still insane.
Waitting...
Barou has better scoring ability than shidou
Better instinct is overrated
Even player like Kuni can shutdown him and isagi didn't even see shidou as a treath one time in this match if barou is on the S tier shidou is on the A tier
Can we really say physique? They seem very close in terms of physique ngl with both being highlighted for having good physiques
@@zerozero8540isagi didn't see him as a threat BECAUSE kuni was there. U forgetting noa assigned that task for kuni cuz he knew it would be over if some1 wasn't on his @ss 24/7?
And u say even kuni like the exact same thing wouldn't happen to barou seeing as kuni is better in every physical stat
@OmegaLeonidas1610 exactly 😂 and bachira is a better dribbler than barou, yet kuni was able to frustrate him somewhat vs barcha. facts of the matter is barou would get locked up by kuni the same way shidou was. most of ubers kuni/noa left barou to Isagi, evident by the 4 blocked shots he had. in fact barou got a shot blocked by kuni when he wasn’t even his mark lol he just read the path
Oooo this gonna be good
Enjoy
To me barou is the superior striker. If i had to bet between the two who would win the golden boot it would be barou however shidou would have the better highlight reel.
Barou to me is probably the best centre forward in blue lock. Hes strong enough to use his physicality, is capable of working in prearanged systems but also hijacking them on the fly to create something new and is developing a charisma that allows his team mates to give their all on his behalf. Rin is probably the best overall player in blue lock but id probably keep him as the 10 or attacking midfielder
This feels so biased in favour of barou. You can't possibly compare 2nd selection kunigami performance against barou and make it comparable to post wild-card bloodlusted kunigami out for revenge against shidou. I would not be surprised if kunigami was in flow trying to shut down that devil who brought him to hell in 2nd selection. Hell shidou should also get extreme endurance who drained kunigami so much just trying to clamp him down (somebody who got physique comparable to noa).
Noa knew of Kunigami's specs yet he didn't put him on Barou knowing that even though he'll give him hell he can't stop him, infact if isagi didn't score he knew they can't stop Barou forever since they only did due to hiori's mv Surprise and Ubers will evolve to that
That's totally different that Shidou whom got shut down by one player not a team just 1 player p
@@ACE_Lock that one player has noa fucking physics your underesmating Kunis defence he literally can lock up barou too.
I think barou currently edges him out in individiual abillity but shidou has higher peaks with team play. Shidou can repplicate the instinctual plays that are the level Isagi needed to edge out barou that game and Rins pre destroyer mode level.
Overall id rate them right next too eachother right under the ng11 tier
I'd say (Only Strikers)
Rin kaise and Isagi are tier 1
Barou tier 2
Shidou and Bachira in tier 3
The rest don't matter
@@ACE_Lock w Take w BAROU

@@-...dj...- like the author keeps reiterating this lmaoo
I wouldn't say that when Kunigami decimated Shidou
@@ACE_Lock for not even half a game?? and decimated how when Kuni barely edged Shidou in getting to the spot for ball clearances. Decimated is what Lorenzo was doing to Kaiser. Kuni had to get subbed bc he physically couldn’t mark him for the rest of the match and he didn’t start marking Shidou either.
Im not sayin barou is better or shidou is better but even tho barou scored more he has no one to compete with i mean honestly if barou had rin on his team and had to split the team like him yeah ion know if he gettin that many i mean he for sure ain't getting 7 but the fact shidou gotta compete with rin for goals legit just sets him up for failure
That was one aspect of comparison and not the whole conversation, Barou had far better feats than Shidou plane and simple
@ACE_Lock ye i should probably stop commenting before i watch the whole vid 😂

I mean i never intended to say Barou has better jumping but Shudou will not be free in the air if you think about because Barou's jumping is that good
Yo i had a question for you, do you think it would make sense for Isagi to also have predator eyes in the future? I am thinking when BL is up against the New Gen 11 GK would make the most sense
I don't see it, simply because he has no use for it, his plays consist of him freeing himself in the penalty box to have an almost 100% scoring chance, and there why would he need the Predator eyes?
@@ACE_Lock Yea makes sense thats what most of Isagis play have been and even if he has dfs marking him all the time he has his revolver shot
Brother please make a aiku vs sae video 🙏

Nice video ace, for some reason i feel like its a bit different in terms of discussing then what am use to but great video 😊
Can you elaborate more please
I feel like there was so much more detail and effort put in to this video, which show how much you are improving 16:01 and the animation shows, which is amazing 😊
I always get excited seeing you post a new video, thanks
I like how u didnt give shidou the predator eyes because he didnt show the feats for having them(the eye split design yes but not the predator eyes)
I base all of my videos on feats and if i include any speculation i state that, like Lorenzo and Karasu's Assassin's eye
also i didn't include a weakness to Shidou which is him getting aggressive and potentially getting red cards because he seemed to have calmed down in the NEL due to the level of the games being exciting for him
Barou takes too many categories, he has one of the best field IQ feats during the Ubers match. Has two distinct play-styles which both yield incredible results. Has had world class tactics drilled into him. And has the best striker temperament in the u20 category worldwide, which includes Kaiser and Rin.
This wasn’t fair.
can’t credit Barou’s IQ without giving Shidou his props. Shidou was able to make a read on a play that led to Charles’ first chemical reaction by outplaying Rin when it came to positioning. Then finished that play on a diving header 1v1 against Gagamaru. the calculations it took to link up with the contrarian himself from build up to goal while exceeding Rin Itoshi is a football marvel. And doing it in a true 1v1, not a cluttered penalty area like how PE Barou lurks for blindspots.
@@noaworldTM He admitted there was no calculations to that. He was just following his own instincts. Which are world class but Shidou doesn't care for that stuff (tactics or calculations). He's even surprised when the ball was where he wanted it to be.
@ without fixating on the word ‘calculations,’ his instinct then; whatever ignited his cells in that way is sports genius
whatever Shidou (or any striker atp in the series) does is replicable and that’s what matters. bc it’s his weapon x formula to get goals.
Glazer
I think Barou is Better but Shidou is still my favourite
lol bro Snuffy was really the best master! Also Shidou doesn’t really create his own plays, he needs a good midfielder
Yeah while Barou can lead a whole team on defense and offense
There was definitely abit of Shido downplay in this match, considering while Barou beat Kunigami in the air that Kunigami was before his emo arc, that Kunigami was literally MANHANDLED in every physical aspect by shidou literally, shidou was much faster,much stronger just outright stronger than Kunigami in their first encounter, not to mention while Barou and shidou literally and probably jump about as high Shidou lost to a FAR superior version of Kunigami while Barou won against a week Kunigami that got dominated by Shidou + shidou has more feats and higher quality feats so in conclusion:
Shidou gaps in jumping, gaps in flexibility shidou is probably the best at dealing with the ball in the air due to his insane acrobatic ability, shidou is also much faster idk if the Author outright just forgot this but Shidou is supposed to have insane acceleration, shidou is also far superior in Endurance and stamina,
Physicality goes to shidou with Barou only taking physical strength and even that’s a contest considering shidou outright made Kunigami look like a child interms of physical strength.
Shidou is a better striker than Barou due to the fact Shidou not only has to share Goals with arguably the best player in blue lock Rin Itoshi, but Barou also has an entire team backing him.
When ALL these factors are actually taken into consideration which you didn’t, which is why I believe there is an insane amount of Barou glazing and shidou downplay in this video, shidou probably takes reliability considering without the WHOLE team sucking up to Barou he has shown he is just as big a problem as he is an asset his lack of cooperation is not good football is a sport of 11 people not. Shidous near guaranteed goal in the penalty Area is also far better than Barous golden zone which again is so easily countered by someone simply being in front of Barou literally just predict the line of the shot which nearly always follows the same path a curve to the top right corner.
Shidou without having to share goals and glory with Rin, with an entire team backing him like Barou, would absolutely SMOCK Barou any day of the week interms of being a striker, also the goal hunger stuff no way you just gonna say Barou is the most hungry the most unreasonable doesnt mean most hungry, outright Rin and shidou himself who literally lives for scoring are at least as hungry., so in conclusion the Barou glazation has to stop 👽
When did shidou ever man handle Kunigami? If you reread their game he didn't beat him physically at all, even the goal shown Kunigami didn't jump cause he thought shidou can't shoot directly, there Shidou's agility beat him
But shidou couldn't overpower Kunigami not out run him
Don't say random shit for the sake of the argument
Barou is better.
But saying he was dominating in the anime is a false statement😭
Okay I have a question about these two, have they ever even met or had an interaction together in the show or manga?? If they have, can someone tell me the episode/chapter??
they met, played against one another 2 times, but never really interacted, mainly because Barou is a player who keeps to himself, he only interacts with Isagi Rin and Nagi cause they annoy the shit out of him lmao
@ When were those 2 times that they’d played against each other and you’re telling me that in the entire series they’ve never had a 1 to 1 interaction/dialogue?
@@SUPERNOVA_0360 They played in the sub20 match and the pxg vs ubers match
@ Did they ever talk to each other though?
@@SUPERNOVA_0360 I don't think so
I feel like what shidou is lacking rn is his ability to score goals on his own at a certain point. Since the U-20 match, it seems he is too dependent on there being a really good midfielder or passer to feed him balls for him to get shots off. Without that, his playing style seems incomplete
16:29 we have to remember that Barou went against Kunigami BEFORE he was trained in the wild card and became a beast, which is why he could man mark shidou like that so I wouldn’t use it as a point for Barou.
Also, you keep bringing up “unpredictability” but it really isn’t that great, sure Barou can score one goal from being unpredictable but after that, he’s then predictable, like in the third selection match between Isagi and rin’s team, after Barou devoured Isagi, rin admitted it got him by surprise but after that rin knew that it was an option, making Barou no longer unpredictable.
Barou is unpredictable for one play, then whoever he’s up against, especially someone with good knowledge, wouldn’t be surprised by him.
This was obvious. Should be more Hot Takey.
I mean ppl asked for it i delivered
@ yes sir!
Barou didn't score in the world 5 game 1:45
I never really counted that game due to the disparity in power
One more question who's going to be the better Right Winger and who's going to be the better player based on FULL POTENTIAL REACHED between Barou and Nagi😁
I believe that they both will be new gen XI level after the U20 World Cup🔥💪🏼
They're both strikers and nagi with full potential wins
Imo Barou vs Shidou is probably THE closest player comparison in Blue Lock EVER😂. Maybe Isagi vs Rin comes close

@ exactly
You guys in the comments who do you think will be the better player in the future based on FULL POTENTIAL REACHED and who'll be the better striker/NO9 between Rin and Kaiser
Give me your reasons for both points🔥👍🏻
Btw Kaiser is 20yrs old now(25 Dec) but he's still an insane talent and a crazy good player🔥😎
Even though isagi's my favourite player I have to say that Rin is amazing and he's a new gen XI level player now at only 16yrs🔥✨💪
Ace who do you think will be the better player in the future😉 Charles or Barou
Charles🔥✨(Metavision IQ Dribbling+Skills Passing Crossing Shooting Free kicks Reflex and Technique mastered Scoring goals but having way more assists and a good defence) his probably going to be the 2nd best midfielder in the world/history🔥
Barou😎🔥⚽💪(Predator Eye Dribbling+Skills IQ Shooting and Technique mastered Speed and Strength plus scoring way more goals)
If nagi gets predator eye it's game over with his abilities he'll hit the next tier of striker
Nagi needs dedication that's all, and he would be the best ever if he does
What do you mean Barou’s dribbling isn’t great?
It's not Bachira Lorenzo and Sae level that's what I mean
"pure striker" in 2025💔
Don't see what the issue is? Did u know in real football there are pure strikers?
you should do rin vs everyone or isagi and kaiser
Rin vs Isagi vs Kaiser is coming as soon as the writer moves the pxg game, Sae vs Berserker Rin is coming next
dashawn never did that move before 😭🙏
Using Kunigami as an opponent for physical battles is unfair since Barou only did those things to pre-wildcard Kunigami vs Shidou faced a Wildcard Kunigami and kept up, but dogwalked pre-wildcard kunigami in the 2nd selection, so I think thats a bit unfair, I'd say Shidou and Barou are equal in physical strength🤷♂️
Idk about physicality and jumping because shidou only got outcast by in those area by wildcard kunigami and barou only beat sage 2 kunigami and wildcard is much stronger so more jumping
i still don't know if shidou actually has pred eyes

Prime Sae⚽🧠🔥😎(Vision IQ Dribbling+Skills Passing Crossing Shooting Free kicks Reflex and Technique mastered plus his perfect kick accuracy scoring great goals and making way more assists plus a good defence)I believe that Sae will become the best midfielder in the world/history😎 Charles🧠✨ will be able to keep up with an awakened Sae but Sae will still be the best
Or
Prime Loki🔥😎⚽✨(his unbeatable speed stamina agility endurance
Dribbling+Skills+Shooting+Passing+Reflex mastered Strength Scoring too much goals having tons of assists too and a great defence)
Give me a few reasons for your pick please🔥👍🏻
I think Loki for sure
I agree but the winged demon beats the king in aerial battle.
Because that Kunigami who beat him was much stronger all aroud than the one against Barou.
i didn't mean for it to be that Barou would destroy Shidou in the Air but he'd give him a run for his money and def would have a great chance at stopping him
@@ACE_Lock I didn't infer that he would so that is just stupid. Like he could certainly pose a serious problem to Shidou but he would not win an aerial battle.
Something funny to think about is even if a team loses while shutting down Shidou. Him essentially getting blue balled could eventually make him crashout and get a red card or even banned from playing.
I actually recorded a portion on that but removed it because he is enjoying rhe high level in the NEL and won't get aggressive, but i can see em getting bored in the future flipping and ending his career
Barou is top 3, he outplayed snuffy and Noa, scored literally every single goal that ubers EVER scored except 1(By Sendou), Blocked shots as a defender in BM, outplayed Isagi, and hes overall much better
First off, the only reason why he scored every single goal for ubers was due to the whole team being made for him being the only striker. Also him outplayed stuffy, and Noa was due to stuffy actually encouraging him to shoot, so he really didn't outplay them. He just was helped by stuffy again.. he only outplayed isagi once, and that was one trick that he could pull off, and Isagi isn't falling for that no more..
Is he a Talented Learner or a Genius
Both are geniuses
So shidou is obviously a Genius and barou is hinted at being one too
But looking at the fact he built himself through hard training i don't see em as a pure genius maybe in the future wime will get a new Ego category that explains things like this
the KING is better in ALMOST all aspects.
Shidou got a better shooting style on air and he can jump real high thats that. while also having played with geniuses who gave him endless passes such as Sae and Charles. while keeping in mind he missed many chances as Loki mentioned.
from the start Barou made it all by his own no matter who played with him (before U20 vs japan)
while on this current Arc Barou got a team that tried to revolve around him (but dont get it twisted they were holding him back) as well. he could have scored even more as he proved to snuffy that he will make his own way of playstyle and won that battle against snuffy which is MAD.
shoot range, mentality, movements, physicality, shoot power, personality inside the field, precision, killer instincts second to none. scoring half the chanes that Shidou got.
NOW imagine Barou cooperating with someone like Sae or Charles.
Exactly, i would only say Shidou is better in movementd and he is as goal hungry as Barou but at the end the king clears
First of all, we have never seen Barou jump bro. Also, author is always trying to fit Shidou with Rin and Isagi, he is trying to portray him as their equal(he is failing to do that), but Ig we will see. I would prefer to see Shidou in Barcha, he learnt nothing anything in PXG, so for now I agree that Barou is better.
Portray him as equal yet have him being crushed by Kunigami is kinda sus ngl
@@ACE_Lock If it's just marking, Kunigami would be able to restrain almost any character, unless they specialize in off the ball. We have seen that Bachira and many other characters were not able to mark Shidou. Kunigami is just physically superior to Shidou and it makes sense that he is able to mark him.
And, of course, Shidou is being sidelined for Rin right now since Rin is the main rival of this arc. Author is doing a poor job with Shidou right now, it's like he does not know what to do with the character.
Shidou my goat top 3 fr🙏😈
Your point about jumping doesn’t make sense, barou beat second selection kunigami in jumping one time, kunigami in that same match scored a header on three people including barou, he then got stronger in the wildcard and that’s the kuni that beat shido. So saying barou jumps higher than shido Is baseless

BEAR-OU is great, but he's levels below the Jester King

Nahh
I agree Barou wins but one issue everyone always has with the matchups is the deletion of every other player like it’s a DBZ fight. Shidou is never going to enter a game without an elite playmaker. Even if you take it to the worst one he could possible have it would be Isagi who In universe is already hyped up as a top MF. Obviously, that extends to Isagi and Kaiser vs Rin talks as well since deleting the team aspect from Football is just absurd even in a series about Ego and sports psychology. Yes Barou will always beat Shidou 1 v 1 and Rin will beat Kaiser or Isagi 1 v 1 but Shidou has a 50/50 shot of being the MOM vs Barou (since he’ll always have an amazing playmaker) and Isagi will beat Rin about 70% of the time with their current iterations.
I'm curious when Isagi in verse has ever been hyped as an MF. Is there a single instance? I can't remember one. He's only ever been hyped as a striker. Ex. Sae and Snuffy are the obvious instances that come to mind.
If you notice in the video I spoke of that as a plus, shidou can score regardless but he shines like a star with a midfielder which idk, i feel like it's the same case with isagi, having Hiori was what saved him and BM against Ubers and what allowed him to score, in fact if it wasnt for Kunigami Shodou wouldhave stopped him, which means Isagi too needs a team, which is the case for Barou as well
I think where the difference lies is in the player's ability to lead said team like Barou and Isagi did
Maybe be before the NEL it was close
As nowadays barou is on whole different category than shidou
He is better scorer ,better QI ,better leader,has got the egocentrism. Isagi rin and barou are on different level compare to the others BL players
dont know about better leader when they laid everything for him at Ubers, but i agree on the other things
Sure they didn't but when I didn't work he lead them to a new path where they dominated and had it not for the surprise of Hiori having Meta-vision they would have won 100% even Isagi and Lorenzo said that, isagi straight up said i can visualize beating Barou so i'll just have to use Hiori to end the game before he scores, and ngl that was brilliant from isagi but more importantly proves how much of menace Barou is
I don't Think Shidou is in a different category, Shidou is on The same level as Rin, Loki used strategies using The 2 of them. Rin is better, but Shidou is still a monster. For me the top five strikers in Blue Lock are Rin, Shidou, Yukimia, Barou and Nagi. Isagi for me is a midfielder who can create openings for attack, as a Striker he is mediocre, he is Just like Sae for me (but waaaay worse). He can't be a Striker with The abillities he has now.
