Glad they somehow managed to simulate the Dabi experience (being unable to chase anyone down while simultaneously having your alphas hit like a wet noodle) in a rapid character. Don't know how the devs managed to do that.
He isn't bad, he isn't great, his skill level requirement is too high, but he is hell of fun to play! His damage output isn't great, his cooldown are slow, but his mobility can be the coolest there is in the game so far. Only complains are his range. His alpha are supposed to be explosive bullets, if so the AOE done by the bullets should be bigger that way they hit more consistently, then there's his BETA, if you're a bit too high, the explosions will not hit anyone below, which kind of sucks, and defeat any purpose of this skill since you're supposed to be an aerial nightmare. Not to mention the damage and range of beta is low. His gamma can be good but it takes too long to cast and has no super armor, which kinda sucks since anyone can interrupt your gamma easily, since the explosion range is also pretty small. Then there's the beautiful HP of 250 since he's a rapid character, you gotta love it! Not META but more of a FUN character.
Not being able to drop the betas from very high altitudes is a balance move from the devs, i mean think of the characters that will suffer from that, give it time you'll get used to it Rapids have been designed in every game to do damage by combining their moves, do high damage and then be a sitting duck for a while But to be honest the design of his moves makes it hard to follow the rules of rapid/assassin characters
@@BominYarou that's not the same thing though, the cannons travel through a specific path and moving out of the way counters it How will others compete if he can move around consistently dropping bombs where others can't reach him, you can reach momo though, it's just like iida's beta, ochako beta, froppy beta, they're all in your face
Now when I see bakugo in rapid mode I always think of its either you try to run and he gets to you or he runs away and you can't get him or you fight him
Honestly i think you took the words right out of my mouth. Whats funny about him is that i feel like he's kinda similar to Twice in a way where even tho his mobility is good, its not designed to chase. He seem more designed for just creating confusion and messiness to support his team. Whereas the other rapids have great chase potential that can be used to help clean up weak opponents. He is very visually pleasing but i see what you mean when you say it feels like you gotta work hard with him. But also as you said, lets give it time to see if maybe we're missing something
To start man I have some MAD respect for you and how you play and show off all these characters for those of us who are learning and what not. Your actually the reason I know Tsu so well and am now on the fast track for my first time ever getting ace rank. As for the Bakugo I feel as if you’re not seeing him correctly try and abuse ALL his moves mobility wise, the Bakugo in the final game stayed in the air so long due to his Alphas and I believe with enough creative thought you can use those alphas in a ton of different ways same for the other moves
I think the almight in red you were chasing at the end along with the moutain lady team are the same people from your stream when you fought them for a majority of the match.
Question what would be the best teammates for the girl with green hair from class 1b because you know how she can't mive when she uses her moves and she is a open target what would be the best teammates to make her not a open target I was thinking of kendo and todoroki because of their moves that block attacks
There good if you want to build a comp solely around her but I think just aggressive teammates in general is good for her. That way they go on and keep the enemies attention while you can snipe freely
I'd say dabi and kendo, kendo cause her shield, and dabi because of his gamma and beta blocking projectiles and his alpha will keep the opponent rolling so they won't shoot back as much
how that bakugo was able to stay in the air for a while longer than normal was bc when rapid bakugo shoots his alpha in the air he gets knock backed but if you hold backwards as you're in the air he goes WAY farther so he held back while facing at the ground while spamming his alphas
Same thing Settano said, alot of flash for little damage but hey...that's rapid right? Except Iida and Froppy have hard betas, damage is spread across skills to combo
When you're out of other charges for mobility, turn around, jump, and shoot low at an angle closer too your feet to send yourself flying at a decent pace. Useful for escapes while facing the enemy or giving yourself something more to maintain a chase. Definitely agree with your sentiment on having to work more with him: you can get great damage, but pulling off Downs and KOs isn't easy. Weirdly, that's more evident than with any other Rapid since turbo-nerfed Froppy.
I don’t think Rapid bakugo is bad. I think most people were expecting big damage like Strike Bakugo. I think bakugo’s having to work for the kill is a good thing. I hope iida receives the same treatment highkey
inosuke from demon slayer class=assault speed and jump=midoriya hp and gp=midoriya melee=2 kicks followed by a single slash with both swords air melee=a drop kick alpha=palisade bite, lunge forward and grab an opponent with your swords, hold to continuously slice them for extra damage damage=80-100 full range= like a lida alpha ammo=2 beta=crazy cutting, tap to do 3 quick spins, doing multiple slashes in every direction damage=55-85 ammo=2 gamma=runs forward at 1.5 times speed, if you hit someone, lift them up with your swords and do his 3rd form, devour ammo=2 damage=95-110 special action= spatial awareness, pretty sure you know what it does. im honestly out of character ideas now, any ideas?
My other main from hinokami chronicles transferred over perfectly. Lets see you’ve done mha, jjk, dragon ball, Naruto, demon slayer, hmmm I’d say one piece but I’ve never seen it at all 😭 not sure tbh
tengen from demon slayer class=assault speed and jump=uraraka hp=300 gp=250 melee=3 hits ending with first form, a downwards slash creating a small shockwave air melee=a downwards slash alpha=throws 3 explosive beads which explode on impact/ if an opponent shoots them range=mr compress scoped damage= 65-95 ammo=6-8 beta=resounding slashes, do a series of slashes over a wide area in front of you range=bigger than aizawas level 9 gamma at level 1 damage= aizawa level 4 gamma at level 1 ammo=percentage based gamma= string performance, basically togas beta but with more cooldown and lasts longer but doesn't reset if you hit someone damage=85-115 ammo=2 special action, do an allmight high jump while using your hearing to identify enemies in a massive radius
That little knock back in air for Baku's Alpha feels like it was implemented as a quirky flashy thing from the devs, but it fundamentally makes things more difficult
Honestly when i first heard that bakugo was gonna be a rapid i was thinking that it was a joke but when i watch this i realized that its true but the thing that shocked me most is that he does less then 300 damage now he does 100 (yes i tested the damage of the strike bakugo) i think this bakugo is one of the fastest characters now
@@CharismaticDemon_I would do something like that little different tho I’d be a hero and my quirk would be AFO and ima take villains quirks when I find them
From my 1st day fighting him. He isn't as dangerous are base bakugo in a 1vs1 but he's WAY more annoying to chase down and in a team setting he's arguably more annoying because shots raining from above your head just confuses you
Few things I've noticed about rapid bakugo are reload cards or technical teammates for more consistent damage and movement are best with him and his alpha pushing you back is way more of a disadvantage than an advantage
Yeah certain match ups the alpha pushing back is nice but a lot of time when I’m chasing people down since your often airborne with him and just slows you down
I’ve been kinda having the exact opposite experience, I think he’s really really solid. I do think he’s gotta work a lot harder than the average character and I think his skill ceiling is insane, he might demand the most from you of any character… but I think when you actually use everything he has he is very powerful. One thing I’d like to add is I didn’t really see you utilizing what I consider his strongest thing, his alpha as a movement option. It’s personally the last thing I level after I get it to at least 4. I think his gamma especially and his beta are his sources of damage, his alpha is just to whittle people down but mostly it’s for movement and repositioning. The strongest thing is whenever you use the special action dash if you 180 and shoot behind you twice you FLY I’ve been catching and finishing togas froppys and even infinite recipro abusers with bakugo, I honestly think he might be the fastest character in the game. Between special, alpha alpha, special, alpha, alpha, and the two betas you have so many movement options it’s crazy. I think after your initial surprise gamma nuke opening combo you mostly want to reposition around with his various moves till you lose the opponent or they think you’re gone and you have a good position to beam them with alpha, or come back in for a second gamma if you see them try to heal/res/hide. You only want to jump shoot with him when fighting a melee character or kiting someone thirsty so you can keep up constant dps while flying back when THEY are chasing you so you’re always at a safe range, and the only third scenario id use alpha offensively if if you can position yourself with your movement directly above the person you’re chasing and beam directly down on them so you stay higher by shooting down to stay on them and track them easier. So you kinda want to use his insane movement to overtake the people you’re chasing and then fire, if you fire while still in the chasing part you’re just gonna go backwards and lose them so you gotta either stay above them and fire down or go so fast you cut them off and put a gamma where they’re running to
Yeah initially I was playing him like typical strike bakugo but as I kept going the muscle memory I had with him adapted to the more constant movement mentally. Been experimenting with a lot of level up pathings like alpha to 4, beta to 4 alpha to max then beta then gamma, as well as maxing beta and gamma first and honestly feel like he just has a lot of good routes depending on what you want. Movement for him is definitely crazy especially with the special action and alpha. With the other Bakugo I mainly saved the special for repositioning or running but this one with all the mobility he has and the buff it got I can use it more freely
@@CharismaticDemon_ I do think he still needs a LITTLE something though, I agree with you on hyper armor on the gamma he needs for sure, but if they really want him to be crazy and have an even higher skill ceiling I think he needs a way to choose when to push himself with alpha and when not to, I’d prefer if tapping it just shot bullets and holding propelled you backwards, or alternatively they could make aiming in push or not push vs free aiming
Funny enough, contrary to what people are saying about Rakugo, i think its easy to get high damage with him because of hit and run tactics. Whats not easy is committing to fights and getting KOs. But he can crowd control
From my experience with a team rapid Bakugo. He's like a predator or hunter. He can chase easier than the rest and escape easily at times. Had a froppy running running from center to mountain, got chased all the way and froppy got K.O'd. Was the funniest thing I saw.
I came across a bunch of rapid Bakugos using Kiri😭 I wasn't worried about the damage but it was a pain in the ass cause them mfs can zigzag in the air wtf
Nah after playing him for a bit I think he’s pretty solid with the movement. Not necessarily the star in a team fight but an annoyance that lets your team act more freely
Ok I’m glad I wasn’t the only one legit struggling to use this character. His chase potential is not bad, but it’s kinda pointless if it’s hard to hit whomever you’re chasing anyhow lmao, which mostly stems from being pushed back via firing your alphas in the air (you’re an easy target on the ground shooting em too). All that said, tho I lost a ton, I legit had a blast playin him (pun intended lol)
For me it is a cool thing they added recoil in the alpha because in the allmight fight vs deku and bakugo deku tries to use the gauntlet and breaks his arm using it has a impact and his body
I love Explody boi ! He looks so fun to play as i caught a little of your stream this morning at campus waitinfg for my class and i have to say i loved the chill vibes of your stream!
That was such a crazy dang match on the last one. Everyone was everywhere and you was just popping off like freck it I’m just clicking all buttons 😂. I’m like when does this end, it’s so in tense. Longest 4 team match!
If you turn backwards when your in the air and use your alpha you’ll go a bit farther have you noticed you go back a bit you jump and use your alpha you can use that for more movement if you turn and do it the opposite direction you want to go it’ll make you go farther as I said
What I really want is more melee oriented characters or melee quirk skill sets. They’re unique because almost every character has some sort of ranged ability.
I also think that the best upgrade path is alpha to 4, beta to 4, alpha to max, gamma to max, beta to max. His movement is balanced i think cos u need to balance your forward movement with your alpha
I played him last night a couple hours and I have to work REALLY hard to down and finish with him! His “combos” aren’t practical his damage is low and I feel like he’s the first underwhelming quirk skill, his alpha is really slow compared to striker Deku and twice. He’s probably the slowest rapid behind twice due to his 2 betas, I haven’t worked this hard since endeavor got nerfed
I got him from a single today and he’s hard to play at first so I practiced in un ranked because it kinda relies on his alpha more but that on my opinion
Can you also tell me why I'm not scared of any other skill set instead of shiggies like I don't even know he came out and when I was getting chased by one I got killed by him and he left fear in my heart thinking that there's no possible way to defeat him with any other character I play
Hes not the best. But for best mobility use special, turn around and use alpha , turn back around and use special, then turn back around and use alpba and then betas . You can get really far, damage is alright for rapid if you land full alpha and beta is just for low multi hit damage over many targets . Gamma honestly sucks and can combo good into beta though for modest damage but i do that and use special to get away and get a lucky shot while i fly away
@@CharismaticDemon_ oh yea it feels like he is more of a character for if you wanna have fun unless you have godly aim and tracking in the sky when you use special. but trust me your chase game won't be that annoying once you use the movement the way I said, the movement alone kept me alive while I was solo almost every time
His moves have a lot of potential, and he seems to be meant more for 3v3s. He can't chase well, but he can most certainly cause a lot of confusion in dense areas, especially with his insane ability to stay airborne is unparalleled to any other character. I see his damage potentially getting buffed, 120 for a level 9 alpha isnt terrible, but 99% of the time youre missing nearly half the shots anyway. I feel like auto aim negatively affects you, since you have to sort of lead your Alpha shots!
All of you are confused on how to play this character it’s like every rapid in the game use your moves to get close use your high damage move which is gamma use beta to get in close use alpha for chip
He's so bad, especially when you think about the fact strike bakugo can emulate a similar B-52 aerial playstyle because most of this rapid bakugo movement comes from his SA with his kit just maintaining altitude as opposed to gaining it like the base game rapids. Versus Fb deku who has a more close ranged playstyle (og deku being ranged) and C Shigi who has an aerial based playstyle (og shigi being ground based). Maybe this comes down to the idea strike bakugo kit is so balanced utility wise that any other kit just feels lacking. And it doesn't seem to be a pay out for him to require this much input on a player's part like twice who trades his movement and low dps for snowball potential with clones.
At the very least from what I can tell from further matches he’s really fun and feels great when you start flowing the moves together nicely. Still prefer the strike one as of now tho
Bro i just tried to spin for him but instead i got alpha ver todoroki i am grateful but lets hope i can get him because i wasted all my money im broke now but ima copy kids with toga that have him W video keep the work up W VIDEO
NO WAY I MISSED THE NOTIFICATION FOR THIS VIDEO NOOOOOO, W bakugo gameplay tho, i just unlocked him but ive gotten decent at dabi that im too scared to swap😭
@CharismaticDemon_ i have tried once, missed all my ap shots😭 but the mobility felt so good since I can't run away as dabi without being chased down like a deer 💀
Her beta is better then before but the gamma combos are the huge source of damage and I’ve noticed many of the dedicated uraraka mains upgrade that first.
I LOVE rapid Katsuki but I don't like his beta. Sometimes it doesn't hit and you can only hit them with one of the explosion. And it does so little damage so they gotta fix that.
Your commentary it's so good while playing, you got the multitasking figured it out
Thank you!
Glad they somehow managed to simulate the Dabi experience (being unable to chase anyone down while simultaneously having your alphas hit like a wet noodle) in a rapid character. Don't know how the devs managed to do that.
Their capable of some wild ideas it seems
I chased down an All Might as Dabi before
He isn't bad, he isn't great, his skill level requirement is too high, but he is hell of fun to play!
His damage output isn't great, his cooldown are slow, but his mobility can be the coolest there is in the game so far.
Only complains are his range. His alpha are supposed to be explosive bullets, if so the AOE done by the bullets should be bigger that way they hit more consistently, then there's his BETA, if you're a bit too high, the explosions will not hit anyone below, which kind of sucks, and defeat any purpose of this skill since you're supposed to be an aerial nightmare. Not to mention the damage and range of beta is low. His gamma can be good but it takes too long to cast and has no super armor, which kinda sucks since anyone can interrupt your gamma easily, since the explosion range is also pretty small.
Then there's the beautiful HP of 250 since he's a rapid character, you gotta love it!
Not META but more of a FUN character.
Yeah couldn’t have said it better myself. Definitely a really fun kit to play with but at least initially is a hard one to use for what it can do
Not being able to drop the betas from very high altitudes is a balance move from the devs, i mean think of the characters that will suffer from that, give it time you'll get used to it
Rapids have been designed in every game to do damage by combining their moves, do high damage and then be a sitting duck for a while
But to be honest the design of his moves makes it hard to follow the rules of rapid/assassin characters
@@Latentheatfussion So, Momo's cannons can hit all the way across the map, easily, no problem, perfectly balanced.
Nah he’s bad 😂
@@BominYarou that's not the same thing though, the cannons travel through a specific path and moving out of the way counters it
How will others compete if he can move around consistently dropping bombs where others can't reach him, you can reach momo though, it's just like iida's beta, ochako beta, froppy beta, they're all in your face
Remember bakugo gets pushed back using alpha so as hes aiming down hes also going up as well thats why he stayed up there for so long
True mans was prolly up there just blasting away

21:22 it looks like deku just placed cementoss down so unless they don't get i-frames then there's no reason it shouldn't of landed
Yeah I feel like I was sold 😭
(First) Rapid Bakugo is either a character who can do more DAMAGE or K.O your enemy quicker. (MY opinion)
At the very least when the combos get flowing he feels strong
I think the almight in red you were chasing at the end along with the moutain lady team are the same people from your stream when you fought them for a majority of the match.

Yeah just gotta be sporadic with the movement to mitigate the low hp
Funny enough, contrary to what people are saying about Rakugo, i think its easy to get high damage with him because of hit and run tactics. Whats not easy is committing to fights and getting KOs. But he can crowd control
Crowd control go crazy with the flashy explosions
@@CharismaticDemon_ FR
From my experience with a team rapid Bakugo. He's like a predator or hunter. He can chase easier than the rest and escape easily at times.
Had a froppy running running from center to mountain, got chased all the way and froppy got K.O'd. Was the funniest thing I saw.
Mans is the newest hunter
U can some faster when ur in the air, shooting ur alpha from behind so it pushes you faster
Yeah started doing that in tandem with the special action
I came across a bunch of rapid Bakugos using Kiri😭 I wasn't worried about the damage but it was a pain in the ass cause them mfs can zigzag in the air wtf
Yeah I feel rapid bakugo is good at keep away in that match up
he may not be great but this is the bakugo i wanted, simulates how he is in the show/manga (as best it could) to an amazing degree
Nah after playing him for a bit I think he’s pretty solid with the movement. Not necessarily the star in a team fight but an annoyance that lets your team act more freely
Ok I’m glad I wasn’t the only one legit struggling to use this character. His chase potential is not bad, but it’s kinda pointless if it’s hard to hit whomever you’re chasing anyhow lmao, which mostly stems from being pushed back via firing your alphas in the air (you’re an easy target on the ground shooting em too).
All that said, tho I lost a ton, I legit had a blast playin him (pun intended lol)
Yeah he’ll take some getting used to for sure
For me it is a cool thing they added recoil in the alpha because in the allmight fight vs deku and bakugo deku tries to use the gauntlet and breaks his arm using it has a impact and his body
Deku was going through it in that fight 😭
Grinding weeklys a second time to try and get him
Best of luck 🫡
I love Explody boi ! He looks so fun to play as i caught a little of your stream this morning at campus waitinfg for my class and i have to say i loved the chill vibes of your stream!
Thanks Branson! We do be vibing 😄
sorry this is so off topic but how do u like change back to toga when u use the secial action
Double tap crouch
@@CharismaticDemon_ TYSM
That was such a crazy dang match on the last one. Everyone was everywhere and you was just popping off like freck it I’m just clicking all buttons 😂. I’m like when does this end, it’s so in tense. Longest 4 team match!
I know! It was a never ending 4 way fight 😆
If you turn backwards when your in the air and use your alpha you’ll go a bit farther have you noticed you go back a bit you jump and use your alpha you can use that for more movement if you turn and do it the opposite direction you want to go it’ll make you go farther as I said
Yup started using the backward shot in tandem with the special action
@@CharismaticDemon_ nice
What I really want is more melee oriented characters or melee quirk skill sets. They’re unique because almost every character has some sort of ranged ability.
Yeah more melee combat characters could be cool
More Compress counters 😭
I feel like Lemillion will be exactly what you’re looking for he’s supposed to be coming to the game soon & I can only imagine so many moves for him.
Nah yall are wrong we need a mineta
@@bruhbros3552 Better hide the women
Pretty sure his alpha pushes him bk so common sense is telling me that he shoots downwards to get pushed up more. Is what im thinkin.
Yup exactly that
This video this good I watched it twice once on my TV and 2nd on my phone
Lmao glad it was entertaining to ya 😄
this guy is absolutely hilarious to play, and play against
Mans is flashy
by the way that Todoroki chase down with the beta was sic
Yeah chasing with this man feels so cinematic
Could u explain in a video wich attacks stops wich attacks or go thru. Etc.
Like invincible moves?
@@CharismaticDemon_ yeah
Sorry for my English
Rapid is only a name look at twice
This is very true
I also think that the best upgrade path is alpha to 4, beta to 4, alpha to max, gamma to max, beta to max. His movement is balanced i think cos u need to balance your forward movement with your alpha
I’ll give that pathing a go
I played him last night a couple hours and I have to work REALLY hard to down and finish with him! His “combos” aren’t practical his damage is low and I feel like he’s the first underwhelming quirk skill, his alpha is really slow compared to striker Deku and twice. He’s probably the slowest rapid behind twice due to his 2 betas, I haven’t worked this hard since endeavor got nerfed
Yeah he’s probably the character that has to work the hardest that we’ve gotten so far
How to dominate with machine gun ( rapid bakugo ) when?
We’ll see 👀
i did not get a chance to try him out but is will
When you do have time even if you don’t pull him mess around in training mode for the hell of it
Man I love the fact u read all yo comments
I do my best 😄
@@CharismaticDemon_ 👍
That second match felt like a movie
I know lmao 3rd match too with how long it kept going for
@CharismaticDemon_ oh wait my bad that's the one I meant 😭
I got him from a single today and he’s hard to play at first so I practiced in un ranked because it kinda relies on his alpha more but that on my opinion
Yeah he’s got a learning curve to him
im planning on saving my tickets for when Present Mic😁
Yeah heard he was coming today and I’m excited
Better mobility than floppy?
It’s up there for sure
Can you also tell me why I'm not scared of any other skill set instead of shiggies like I don't even know he came out and when I was getting chased by one I got killed by him and he left fear in my heart thinking that there's no possible way to defeat him with any other character I play
Yeah he’s a tough one
Hes not the best. But for best mobility use special, turn around and use alpha , turn back around and use special, then turn back around and use alpba and then betas . You can get really far, damage is alright for rapid if you land full alpha and beta is just for low multi hit damage over many targets . Gamma honestly sucks and can combo good into beta though for modest damage but i do that and use special to get away and get a lucky shot while i fly away
Yeah the movement he has is fun but the moves can be slightly underwhelming sometimes. Tho when they start flowing it feels great
@@CharismaticDemon_ oh yea it feels like he is more of a character for if you wanna have fun unless you have godly aim and tracking in the sky when you use special. but trust me your chase game won't be that annoying once you use the movement the way I said, the movement alone kept me alive while I was solo almost every time
@@CharismaticDemon_ if you wanna see a visual of what I mean then watch Strays video on rapid bakugo and youll see how fun it could be
His moves have a lot of potential, and he seems to be meant more for 3v3s. He can't chase well, but he can most certainly cause a lot of confusion in dense areas, especially with his insane ability to stay airborne is unparalleled to any other character. I see his damage potentially getting buffed, 120 for a level 9 alpha isnt terrible, but 99% of the time youre missing nearly half the shots anyway. I feel like auto aim negatively affects you, since you have to sort of lead your Alpha shots!
Yeah the chaos he creates is really nice
All of you are confused on how to play this character it’s like every rapid in the game use your moves to get close use your high damage move which is gamma use beta to get in close use alpha for chip
Yeah I noticed after some more matches his gamma has a quick cooldown so relying on that may be the way to go
IDK , i feel the old kit is more solid for fights , but the new kit is crazy fun to play
Flying around nonstop do be fun
For movement use the alpha to push back
Gonna be flying with this one
It's time...time for "what's the better Kacchan?"
The answer is dekus kacchan
The need to change that his alpha only pushes u back when ur shooting while pulling the stick back if that makes since.
Would make attacking in midair more reliable and have less drawbacks for sure
or only when unscoped. They gotta do something
I saw the future small zone 3 teams
They wanted it bad
You should use alpha as movement too
Aim the opposite direction where u wanna go
I think his charactsr is just to mess around, damage is not his thing
Yeah I realized after playing more
He's so bad, especially when you think about the fact strike bakugo can emulate a similar B-52 aerial playstyle because most of this rapid bakugo movement comes from his SA with his kit just maintaining altitude as opposed to gaining it like the base game rapids. Versus Fb deku who has a more close ranged playstyle (og deku being ranged) and C Shigi who has an aerial based playstyle (og shigi being ground based). Maybe this comes down to the idea strike bakugo kit is so balanced utility wise that any other kit just feels lacking. And it doesn't seem to be a pay out for him to require this much input on a player's part like twice who trades his movement and low dps for snowball potential with clones.
At the very least from what I can tell from further matches he’s really fun and feels great when you start flowing the moves together nicely. Still prefer the strike one as of now tho
Bro i just tried to spin for him but instead i got alpha ver todoroki i am grateful but lets hope i can get him because i wasted all my money im broke now but ima copy kids with toga that have him W video keep the work up W VIDEO
Using toga to trial new characters is the way
Probably won’t roll for this one. Got to choose to save for some of these and this one looks like it’s worth skipping.
Yeah if they’re giving 3 characters a season makes sense to save for the ones you truly want
I couldn't pull fighter jet bakugo but atleast i maxed aura day off all might costume
I need one more for max aura 😭
Which buff do you think rapid bakugo needs less reload time or a extra beta?
Extra beta would go crazy but I’m not really sure rn. Still want to play him and adjust to him since he’s still so new
Great gameplay! Do you mind telling me your camera settings?🔥
Thanks! 110 x and y sens and everything else default. Tho might increase to use this Bakugo more efficiently
@@CharismaticDemon_ thanks 💯
I wonder if I can roll another corset like machine gun you think I got the luck demon
Dunno I didnt this time around
I believe you can propel yourself higher or sustain your current altitude by using alpha at a certain angle. Don't quote me on that though.
Something to give a go in training mode for sure
I feel like he might need a few buffs because he feels kind of underwhelming. Mainly his Beta
Yeah like others said it sucks it doesn’t go all the way down if your high up so that’s why tweak they could make
@@CharismaticDemon_ exactly
NO WAY I MISSED THE NOTIFICATION FOR THIS VIDEO NOOOOOO, W bakugo gameplay tho, i just unlocked him but ive gotten decent at dabi that im too scared to swap😭
Give the mobility a try it might make you swap for good 😈
@CharismaticDemon_ i have tried once, missed all my ap shots😭 but the mobility felt so good since I can't run away as dabi without being chased down like a deer 💀
So I am learning how to play uraraka so I can turn my friend into a flying bomber plane. Any suggestions on which quirk I lvl first
Her beta is better then before but the gamma combos are the huge source of damage and I’ve noticed many of the dedicated uraraka mains upgrade that first.
Bro I forgot rapid bakugo came out today and you streamed man I missed so much i went on a field trip I can't wait to try out new bakugo
Hope you had fun on the trip
@@CharismaticDemon_ ya I did thank you hope you had a wonderful stream
twice: the sky is deadly. everything is ok
The true sad man
😂
Yeah I'm glad I wasted all my tickets on All for One. This new bakugo looks fun but lack luster in damage
Yeah all for one is the highlight of the season for me
if only you could use the cape skin for the "how to combo" video :( (imo the best skin)
Oh the parallel world one? One of my favorites too
i feel like bakugos gama is this meme missle in bound
Lmao. Explosives planted
Is he worth summoning in your opinion ? Some other videos say you have to do too much to create little damage ? I need to know, do i summon or no ?
I’d save as of right now for whatever comes next
@@CharismaticDemon_ I thought so too.
just aim backwards if u want to follow someone without using ur special action or the beta
True enough
I think the knock back is to stay more in the air
Yeah helps with that
Charismatic Now Bakugo Got His Movement Back i Gonna Try Him Out! & Btw Today I’m Feeling Sick. 👀💚❤️💥
Hope you feel better! Falling a bit sick myself 😭
WAHT SOUND YOUR GUN MAKE BRRRRR edit:combustion man from avatar
NO I THOUGHT OF DOING THAT AS ONE OF THE TIME STAMPS LMAOO I DIDNT THINK ANYONE WOULD GET IT THO
Bro cooked with this one🔥🔥
Thank you!
will you play sandland, if yes then will you stream it and if no, why not?
No clue what that is so no I guess
It's cool that Machine Gun Bakugo can bomb people while mobile but it just looks and feels off.
Yeah I get what you mean at least the feel of it sometimes
I LOVE rapid Katsuki but I don't like his beta. Sometimes it doesn't hit and you can only hit them with one of the explosion. And it does so little damage so they gotta fix that.
Yeah I thought it’d be a multi hitting attack too
sand land is the new akira toriyama game, its an action rpg with a focus on vehichular combat
Ohh I think I saw someone else make a video on it. I’ll give it a watch
