i decided to give tca a try yesterday and it actually was a pretty nice experience, i really hope this game gets more recognition, it’s not a one shot combo simulator. i enjoyed the combat and how you can do any boss without being at the required level, it made the grinding for me personally since i was more careful when i attacked and when i needed to be defensive.
OMG, fighting Bird Guy after the story until max lvl is so fast. Seriously made me believe in the game's potential super quickly. That, and having the rank system instead of the prestige system is nice. Keeping your levels feels good, bc nobody wants to pointlessly lose all their levels and stats and have to grind it all again.
It’s a shame that people on Roblox only look at visuals when talking about how good a game can be. TCA, although still a bit janky in the animation department imo, is the proof that gameplay above all things is what really makes a good game. Thanks to the devs for making this game and giving the support it needs and thank you for sharing it
If they did do a visual update though I think they would gain players and actually be able to retain them unlike the games that have good visuals but not good gameplay
@@IsmaelQuinto732Nowadays yba's effects are so loud and in-your-face that you can barely even SEE them, let alone whoever is hitting you. Yba certainly has MORE animations and effects, but are they better? Idk.
As someone who followed a similar path as eclipse from YBA to AUT then to despise it, then stumble across TCA and enjoy it thoroughly, I’m extremely glad that Eclipse is making content on it. Not only will it further displace him from just being the “YBA guy”, it’ll also bring the very much deserved attention to TCA. And with Eclipse being on the team behind updates, it’ll just further improve the game. I’m truly excited to see the development of this game!
@@greeny4511 Well I can't agree or disagree with you. Everyone has a different point of view on something. But I haven't felt something so nostalgic since the old yba. But I would like to know as to why you don't agree? 👍🏾
Old YBA was absolute dogshit. The game was barely functioning and in my honest opinion the new YBA is infinitely better than the old YBA. The people that say "i miss old yba" are just the same kids trying to fit in with the rest of the crowd. As for this game the PVP is barely functioning. The m1's don't stun at all, The movement is extremely clunky And the PVP system is entirely just move spamming. The storyline is boring and the same as every other jojo game. Run around the map beating up NPC's. And there's absolutely nothing else to do except fight someone with the extremely bad PVP system and have a mental breakdown trying to PVP. Or just be absolutely bored trying to find something to do in that game.
@@greeny4511Gee, wonder what new Ybas pvp is like! Totally quite literally not just staring at eachother and using the SAME moves to land a combo! You know, TCA can make it big, the pvp is pretty functional, and by the way, old YBA had combat that needed skill, compared to trashy ass new yba. Highly suggested you play TCA, could fix your game taste as well.
The main grudge I hold against twoh is that it feels infuriating to play with, as you described. The lack of moves available and the occasions you get to land heavenly slam are next to none or it's often better to go for m1s that are much safer instead of the opponent dashing away and punishing, other than that, good video and analysis, just maybe if you could give us more info on the skill tree that would be cool.
TCA's visuals are amazing for a jojo game and i appreciate all the effort and time that they put into the game to actually make it good and actually listen to the community for feedback especially when it comes to the variety of game modes and how they go with balancing stands and specs and not making them extremely game breaking. Thank you for this amazing game TCA devs :)
TWOH is... certainly an interesting Stand in most games. You either get something incredibly and unbelievably overpowered that somehow never gets powercreeped with a convoluted obtainment method, or... relatively easy to get, and a very good Stand, but like, there's better options out there.
I watched the entire GE review the hour it came out. You’re the only UA-camr I know of who analyzes games in such a concise way, and I am a _complete_ sucker for analysis of any kind. I actually really look forward to these reviews. Also, I’m sorry about the tic-tac-toe.
watching this video 3 days late, and there are 2K COMMENTS. holy shit. glad to see that you're bringing back the old series for a game that you love and know has potential, your videos are always better when you're enjoying yourself, wether it's with friends or in TCA. keep up the good work, love your videos.
Whoa! I love watching your videos, I even watched the whole GE video lol, its very cool that you give back to your community! Even if its because you felt bad against something, it makes you more human than the robot channels, and you are also probably not an AI... I think. Eclipse AI?!?!😲
Even though TCA isnt doing so well in terms of player count right now, i still have hope that it'll get a spike in players, it just needs the right timing. Like how among us was a barren forgotten game for two whole years before it got a massive boost in playercount. It all depends on the games and events surrounding a game that determines how well it'll do. Have hope eclipse!
I used to be a big fan of YBA, but eventually quit due to the unfortunate downfall of the downwards spiral that the game went down upon. TCA is like everything I wanted YBA to be, so even though I don't have much time to play games anymore, I'm glad to see you make videos on TCA.
TCA needs to add more than just jojo content, its trying too much to be like yba, it's gonna prob fall off because its just another jojo game, those come out like clockwork. So the only way I see this staying alive is if it becomes main stream or they add other anime fighting styles.
@@LemoneManadding stuff from other anime isnt gonna do jack shit, theres alot of games atm that are more popular than tca that dont have stuff from other anime and arent mainstream, plus why would adding stuff from other anime even do shit💀
@@The_all_mighty_poweryou want to know why it'll "do shit"? Its because games get boring when there's only one thing in the game. Think of it like this. We're playing a gun game right? Well we only have assault rifles and no secondaries or any other weapon class, just assault rifles. Would you not get bored?
As someone who is absolute garbage at the game, the TWOH skin would benefit me greatly since we all know skins give you a competitive advantage. Jokes aside, great content as per usual. I’ve been watching since the KC review back when YBA had m1 stun, and your content has never failed to make my day. The TCA content is amazing, and it’s good to hear you enjoying yourself again when you play. P.S. sorry if I’ve ever run into you in game and been toxic. As I mentioned, I’m dogshit at this game and tilt easily. Hope you have a great day!
Since I can comment anything... How to Bake a Cake First you’ll have to choose a recipe. You can keep it simple with a yellow cake, or you can choose a slightly showier recipe, like a chocolate devil’s food cake or a vibrant red velvet cake. If you’re not a fan of the traditional frostings, try a German chocolate cake. We also have a few birthday cake recipes for celebratory occasions. The possibilities are almost endless, and these directions will help you make them all, but angel food, pound cakes, sponge cakes, and chiffon cakes require different methods, so read up on those separately. Step 1: Prepare Baking Pans No one wants a cake to stick to the pan, so it’s important to prep your pans before pouring in the batter. With the exception of angel food and chiffon cakes, most recipes call for greasing and flouring the pan or lining the pan with waxed or parchment paper. As for selecting the right type of baking pan to use, the best are shiny pans, which absorb less heat and produce a golden crust. Pans with a dark or dull finish absorb more heat and may burn your crust, so if you’re using one of these, reduce your oven temperature by 25°F and check on the cake 3-5 minutes earlier than the recipe suggests. Step 2: Allow Ingredients to Reach Room Temperature Many recipes require cake ingredients, such as eggs and butter, to stand at room temperature. This allows the butter to blend easily with other ingredients, and the eggs will yield a higher cake volume. (For food safety reasons, don’t leave the eggs at room temperature for more time than specified in the recipe.) Tip: Never use melted butter when softened butter is called for. It will ruin the cake’s texture. Step 3: Preheat the Oven When a cake bakes too quickly, it can develop tunnels and cracks; too slowly, and it can be coarse. Allow your oven to preheat for at least 10 minutes, and use an oven thermometer to be sure it’s reached the proper temperature. If you’re using dark cake pans, you’ll want to reduce the oven temperature called for in your recipe by 25°F. Step 4: Stir Together Dry Ingredients Dry ingredients usually include flour, baking powder and/or baking soda, and salt. Rather than adding each dry ingredient individually to the batter, whisk them together in a bowl beforehand. That way you’ll know the ingredients will be equally distributed throughout the batter. Step 5: Combine the Butter and Sugar Wondering how to make a cake with a light, airy crumb? Creaming butter and sugar is the most important step. Here’s how: Using an electric mixer on medium to high speed, beat the butter for 30 seconds. Generally, a stand mixer requires a medium speed for this step, but a hand mixer requires a higher speed. Add the sugar (and vanilla if the recipe calls for it) and beat the mixture on medium speed until it is combined and has a light, fluffy texture. This will take 3 to 5 minutes. (Do not cut this short.) Scrape the bowl occasionally while beating. Tiny bubbles will be created as the butter and sugar are combined, which will give your cake that light, fluffy texture. Step 6: Add Eggs One at a Time Add the eggs (or egg whites) one at a time, beating well after each. Their protein creates a structure around the air bubbles that will maintain the texture. Tip: Break the eggs individually into a custard cup or small bowl first. This way, if you get shell fragments, you can easily fish them out of the cup, rather than trying to get them out of the batter. Step 7: Alternate Adding Dry and Wet Ingredients Alternate between adding some of the dry mixture and some of the milk (or whatever liquid is specified in your recipe) to the butter-egg-sugar mixture, beating on low speed after each addition until everything is combined. Begin and end with the flour mixture, as when liquid is mixed into flour, gluten begins to form. Too much gluten makes for a tough cake, so be sure to start and finish with the flour, and be careful not to overmix once you’ve added liquid. Tip: Be careful not to overmix at this stage or you might get elongated, irregular holes in the finished cake. Step 8: Pour Batter into Pans and Bake Divide the batter evenly between the baking pans. Use an offset spatula to spread the batter in an even layer. Be sure to spread it to the pan’s edge. Bake your cake according to your recipe’s directions. Step 9: Check Cake for Doneness Overbaked cake equals dry cake, and no one wants that. Start checking the cake for doneness after the recipe’s stated minimum baking time, but avoid opening the oven door before then, so that the heat doesn’t escape. For creamed cakes, insert a wooden toothpick near the center of the cake. If the pick comes out clean (with only a crumb or two on it), the cake is done. If there is any wet batter on it, bake the cake for a few minutes more and test in a new spot with a new toothpick. Step 10: Cool the Cake Layers Let the cake layers cool in their pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes maximum. To remove the cakes from the pans, run a knife around the edges, which will loosen them from the sides of the pans. Place a wire rack over the top of each cake and flip the pan. Gently lift the pans off, being careful not to tear the edges of the cakes. If you used waxed or parchment paper, carefully peel the paper off the cake. Allow the cake to cool completely (about 1 hour). This is a key step to letting the cake firm up, making it less likely to break apart as you frost it. (And it keeps the frosting from melting as soon as you spread it!) Step 11: Assemble the Cake To avoid crumbs in your frosting, brush the cake layers with a pastry brush. Spread about a ½ cup of frosting over the first layer, then carefully top it with the next layer. Repeat until all the layers are stacked. Tip: It takes about 2½ to 3 cups of icing to generously fill and frost a two-layer, 9-inch cake. For a three-layer cake, plan on using 3½ to 4 cups. Step 12: Add the First Coat of Frosting The secret to knowing how to frost a layer cake is a crumb coat. To do this, spread a very thin layer of frosting over the sides and top of the cake. This initial coat doesn’t need to look perfect; it’s another way to keep the crumbs out of the frosting. Let the cake stand for 30 minutes so the frosting sets up. Tip: For a quick cleanup, tuck small pieces of waxed paper around and under the first layer, which should be on a cake pedestal or cake plate. Step 15: Frost and Decorate Using an offset spatula or table knife, generously spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake, swirling as you go. Once the cake is completely covered, go back and add more swirls as desired. Serve the cake within 2 hours or store in the refrigerator.. Now that you know how to make a cake from scratch, keep practicing your cake decorating skills at home with different colored frosting, piping techniques, and toppings. For more cake ideas, here are some easy and elegant cake recipes to inspire your next baking session.
Thanks very much eclipse for showing off TCA for have been playing it a lot recently after coming back to check up on your channel and I really hope tca works out for the channel.
I do agree with stands having a larger damage output so long as the requirement takes set up or effort since I love time-stop and its just very cool to finally use your ultimate move and deal a boatload of damage. It would be interesting if there could be more stands with that kind of playstyle but I wouldn't sacrifice the variety for it since it may end up just being YBA all over again with every stand having a way to erase your health bar in one combo.
After hearing so much about this game from you, I wanted to find a stand that fit my "high risk, high reward" playstyle and initially didn't know which one to pick, but now I think I gotta try out TWOH and the game in general from watching this video. Thanks Eclipse!
Been loving your content recently. It sucks that a lot of people will only watch if YBA is in the title, but it’s good to see despite lower view counts, you haven’t given up. Keep up the good work!!
these stand reviews are quite nice for understanding counters, really appreciate your efforts eclipse, been seeing you since years ago and i wish you the best. TCA supremacy!
I love the change, I remember discovering you and watching you have fun with all your friends in old YBA, I'm glad to see you having the same fun with TCA like you had with old YBA
I played TCA with my friends at 1 AM and I enjoyed the game a lot. Got max level with my friend in a couple hours and got MIH. I sucked at the combat but it was pretty fun to fight against my friends while we tried to learn the combat. Thanks for introducing this game that I otherwise wouldnt have found.
Hey, leaving comment, because you know. Played the game, it was mostly fun, when I didn't run into people who just throw off skills or brickbattle on my way to get TWOH, so good luck to Devs and you of course!
I used to play TCA but quitted. Now I'm going to play it again. I love the fact that the devs are actually listening to their players, unlike other games that doesn't Hopefully the playerbase of this game increases, it deserves more attention nice vid, and keep up the good work eclipse :D
I didn't really like TCA when i first saw it, but after seeing your review it seemed like a really good game and you got me interested in the game, I beat the story, got skins for it, the games really good I thank you eclipse.
I've played this game a few times and I can say this is defiantly the best Roblox game for me right now. I haven't played in a while but I've been trying different games that aren't Roblox yet I still go back to this one, if you are still thinking about playing the game even after watching this mans vids this may be your sign to play sold 8/10 and its still fairly new and with lots of updates to come.
I just gotta say, I think the move to tca was a fantastic choice. I think i first started watching your channel around the time you made the old yba beginners guide, and probably watched most if not all of your old yba vids, and even some of the non-roblox videos. I kinda fell off watching, and only recently started again, but one thing that ive really noticed about all your tca videos is that, compared to the more recent yba vids, you seem a whole lot happier to actually be making them, and I hope others take your advice like I did and actually give TCA a try, because it's really fun.
This is my first tca vid ive seen and im actually surprised on how good it is, ive been wanting to get into a jojo game after yba started to get boring
Pretty sad that you arent getting as many viewers anymore, but I'm fairly sure if you keep on this path, you will eventually get the audience you truly deserve. Do not give up.
I'm slowly coming around to TCA more and more, especially since I play both YBA and TCA, and I've had MUCH more fun playing the latter, though I'm not amazing at the combat juuuust yet 😂
I'm not sure as what to write. But I play tca alot, and I would in fact really like that skin. Oh and really like the battle field videos. They're really fun to watch, and the challenge videos like the magnum only one, was really entertaining
Just leaving a comment here to say that I love your videos, been watching you since old yba times, and I wanted to thank you for doing what you do, you're the reason I started to play yba (and now tca) and i've been enjoying myself very much so thanks bro. Obviously, it's not the ONLY reason, cuz, you know, i want the skin, too...
Eclipse is the king of foreheads and apparently roblox jojo games. Wish we could see more videos of underrated stands like the GE review. The Hand, Crazy Diamond post patch, Six Pistols, C-Moon, they could all see increased players if they just knew how to use it effectively.
I played tca with my friend we got jumped once we got to lvl 16 and we quit for a couple months and after i watched your video me and my friend gave it a another chance and we had fun so me and my friend played it again is fun the game is on xbox so i really like it
Yo eclipse i finally play tca with my friend and i can say its very fun and easy to lvl up and it was very funny,i found a random dude helping me with the last boss (the angry bird thing)
I tried this game with a friend like two days ago and I ended up playing for six hours straight, this game just feels like better YBA and felt like a good throwback. But I’m excited to see it grow out of YBA’s shadow
big thanks to you for showing us TCA, because I was already tired of yba, it just isn’t fun anymore, and then there is TCA, which it has gave me lots of funny moments, I hope one day it will become a more popular game
Thanks of course for the video. I never played this game and chance winning the giveaway is relatively low but still why not, maybe after winning I will start playing.
I can't count how many times I've ran into random TWOH users who think they're hot shit lmao. The stand's cool and all, but like, you're not God himself for having it lol. Anyway, banger video as always.

How to Bake a Cake
First you’ll have to choose a recipe. You can keep it simple with a yellow cake, or you can choose a slightly showier recipe, like a chocolate devil’s food cake or a vibrant red velvet cake. If you’re not a fan of the traditional frostings, try a German chocolate cake. We also have a few birthday cake recipes for celebratory occasions. The possibilities are almost endless, and these directions will help you make them all, but angel food, pound cakes, sponge cakes, and chiffon cakes require different methods, so read up on those separately.
Step 1: Prepare Baking Pans
No one wants a cake to stick to the pan, so it’s important to prep your pans before pouring in the batter. With the exception of angel food and chiffon cakes, most recipes call for greasing and flouring the pan or lining the pan with waxed or parchment paper.
As for selecting the right type of baking pan to use, the best are shiny pans, which absorb less heat and produce a golden crust. Pans with a dark or dull finish absorb more heat and may burn your crust, so if you’re using one of these, reduce your oven temperature by 25°F and check on the cake 3-5 minutes earlier than the recipe suggests.

(For food safety reasons, don’t leave the eggs at room temperature for more time than specified in the recipe.)
Tip: Never use melted butter when softened butter is called for. It will ruin the cake’s texture.

Too much gluten makes for a tough cake, so be sure to start and finish with the flour, and be careful not to overmix once you’ve added liquid.
Tip: Be careful not to overmix at this stage or you might get elongated, irregular holes in the finished cake.
Step 8: Pour Batter into Pans and Bake
Divide the batter evenly between the baking pans. Use an offset spatula to spread the batter in an even layer. Be sure to spread it to the pan’s edge. Bake your cake according to your recipe’s directions.
Step 9: Check Cake for Doneness
Overbaked cake equals dry cake, and no one wants that. Start checking the cake for doneness after the recipe’s stated minimum baking time, but avoid opening the oven door before then, so that the heat doesn’t escape. For creamed cakes, insert a wooden toothpick near the center of the cake. If the pick comes out clean (with only a crumb or two on it), the cake is done. If there is any wet batter on it, bake the cake for a few minutes more and test in a new spot with a new toothpick.
Step 10: Cool the Cake Layers
Let the cake layers cool in their pans on a wire rack for 10 minutes maximum. To remove the cakes from the pans, run a knife around the edges, which will loosen them from the sides of the pans. Place a wire rack over the top of each cake and flip the pan. Gently lift the pans off, being careful not to tear the edges of the cakes. If you used waxed or parchment paper, carefully peel the paper off the cake.
Allow the cake to cool completely (about 1 hour). This is a key step to letting the cake firm up, making it less likely to break apart as you frost it. (And it keeps the frosting from melting as soon as you spread it!)
Step 11: Assemble the Cake
To avoid crumbs in your frosting, brush the cake layers with a pastry brush. Spread about a ½ cup of frosting over the first layer, then carefully top it with the next layer. Repeat until all the layers are stacked.
Tip: It takes about 2½ to 3 cups of icing to generously fill and frost a two-layer, 9-inch cake. For a three-layer cake, plan on using 3½ to 4 cups.
Step 12: Add the First Coat of Frosting
The secret to knowing how to frost a layer cake is a crumb coat. To do this, spread a very thin layer of frosting over the sides and top of the cake. This initial coat doesn’t need to look perfect; it’s another way to keep the crumbs out of the frosting. Let the cake stand for 30 minutes so the frosting sets up.
Tip: For a quick cleanup, tuck small pieces of waxed paper around and under the first layer, which should be on a cake pedestal or cake plate.
Step 15: Frost and Decorate
Using an offset spatula or table knife, generously spread the remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake, swirling as you go. Once the cake is completely covered, go back and add more swirls as desired. Serve the cake within 2 hours or store in the refrigerator..
Now that you know how to make a cake from scratch, keep practicing your cake decorating skills at home with different colored frosting, piping techniques, and toppings. For more cake ideas, here are some easy and elegant cake recipes to inspire your next baking session.
Yes i liked my own comment
Edit: tank for 12 likez most i ever got
same
I think this is the most used comment on yt. Why it's trending still? Xd
Thanks very much eclipse for showing off TCA for have been playing it a lot recently after coming back to check up on your channel and I really hope tca works out for the channel.
I do agree with stands having a larger damage output so long as the requirement takes set up or effort since I love time-stop and its just very cool to finally use your ultimate move and deal a boatload of damage. It would be interesting if there could be more stands with that kind of playstyle but I wouldn't sacrifice the variety for it since it may end up just being YBA all over again with every stand having a way to erase your health bar in one combo.
After hearing so much about this game from you, I wanted to find a stand that fit my "high risk, high reward" playstyle and initially didn't know which one to pick, but now I think I gotta try out TWOH and the game in general from watching this video. Thanks Eclipse!
Thanks Eclipse for getting me into this game. Been playing for a couple of days now and I’ve had a ton of fun!
Been loving your content recently. It sucks that a lot of people will only watch if YBA is in the title, but it’s good to see despite lower view counts, you haven’t given up. Keep up the good work!!
these stand reviews are quite nice for understanding counters, really appreciate your efforts eclipse, been seeing you since years ago and i wish you the best. TCA supremacy!
I love the change, I remember discovering you and watching you have fun with all your friends in old YBA, I'm glad to see you having the same fun with TCA like you had with old YBA
I played TCA with my friends at 1 AM and I enjoyed the game a lot. Got max level with my friend in a couple hours and got MIH. I sucked at the combat but it was pretty fun to fight against my friends while we tried to learn the combat. Thanks for introducing this game that I otherwise wouldnt have found.
Hey, leaving comment, because you know.
Played the game, it was mostly fun, when I didn't run into people who just throw off skills or brickbattle on my way to get TWOH, so good luck to Devs and you of course!
Just wanna say, love your videos, you're prolly the funniest yt around rn
I like how eclipse explains basically everything you should know to use twoh or counter it or even obtain it
Hey! I really like your videos, I hope that TCA will be popular some day soon.
I had never even heard of TCA until you started making videos on it, and after watching a few I'm considering give the game a shot, looks pretty fun
It's enjoyable seeing you finally have fun with what you do
This video was pretty cool. Hope to see a similar one, but with weather report!
I love the stand reviews for TCA so far, keep up the good work 👍
Been playing tca for a fewndays now all thanks to you it is actually enjoyable. Thanks!
Even coming back to watching Eclipse he is still as good as when I watched him a little while ago keep going your one of my favorite youtubers.
I used to play TCA but quitted. Now I'm going to play it again.
I love the fact that the devs are actually listening to their players, unlike other games that doesn't
Hopefully the playerbase of this game increases, it deserves more attention
nice vid, and keep up the good work eclipse :D
I didn't really like TCA when i first saw it, but after seeing your review it seemed like a really good game and you got me interested in the game, I beat the story, got skins for it, the games really good I thank you eclipse.
I've played this game a few times and I can say this is defiantly the best Roblox game for me right now. I haven't played in a while but I've been trying different games that aren't Roblox yet I still go back to this one, if you are still thinking about playing the game even after watching this mans vids this may be your sign to play sold 8/10 and its still fairly new and with lots of updates to come.
Really hope to see this game Grow, it deserves it
finally one stayed and i can actually see it
Thats crazy ong, also this game is pretty fun i got a bit into it because of your videos
Great video, I like how TWOH's moves in this game seem to have more variety then that of YBA or other jojo games at that
Really excited hope I can get the skin
I just gotta say, I think the move to tca was a fantastic choice. I think i first started watching your channel around the time you made the old yba beginners guide, and probably watched most if not all of your old yba vids, and even some of the non-roblox videos. I kinda fell off watching, and only recently started again, but one thing that ive really noticed about all your tca videos is that, compared to the more recent yba vids, you seem a whole lot happier to actually be making them, and I hope others take your advice like I did and actually give TCA a try, because it's really fun.
This is my first tca vid ive seen and im actually surprised on how good it is, ive been wanting to get into a jojo game after yba started to get boring
Pretty sad that you arent getting as many viewers anymore, but I'm fairly sure if you keep on this path, you will eventually get the audience you truly deserve. Do not give up.
Damn who knew listening Eclipse while reading a book is somewhat surprisingly calming
GRAHHHHHHH Great vids as always eclipse
TCA is pretty good. You've inspired me to play it, which I have done. Thank you for introducing me to a good JoJo game.
I'm slowly coming around to TCA more and more, especially since I play both YBA and TCA, and I've had MUCH more fun playing the latter, though I'm not amazing at the combat juuuust yet 😂
I'm not sure as what to write. But I play tca alot, and I would in fact really like that skin. Oh and really like the battle field videos. They're really fun to watch, and the challenge videos like the magnum only one, was really entertaining
I really like that theese vids are doing well hope you do more content about it, great vid
Don't see anyone else mentioning it, but that KC in the background footage was actually pretty decent.
love this game, in such little time it's gotten more content than yba in years. it still needs a bit of polish, but I think it's an underrated gem.
I could barely focus on what you were saying during the kc fight because it was so engaging lmao
Youre not just the Christ of bad Jojo roblox games, your the HOLY TRINITY
Hey Eclipse, I just started playing the game today after watching this video and I really like it. I also like the video btw
the counterplay section really helped get around twoh since i see alot of twoh users in 1v1s
I liked, comment, and subscribed. I have the 100% win rate now
Tca videos go hard, good video eclipse!
Hello eclipse, you're awesome! Keep it going!!
Just leaving a comment here to say that I love your videos, been watching you since old yba times, and I wanted to thank you for doing what you do, you're the reason I started to play yba (and now tca) and i've been enjoying myself very much so thanks bro.
Obviously, it's not the ONLY reason, cuz, you know, i want the skin, too...
I hope TCA gets the same amount of players as YBA does also thank you Eclipse, Christ himself, sent from the heavens to smite bad Roblox Jojo games.
Eclipse is the king of foreheads and apparently roblox jojo games. Wish we could see more videos of underrated stands like the GE review. The Hand, Crazy Diamond post patch, Six Pistols, C-Moon, they could all see increased players if they just knew how to use it effectively.
after watching 3 tca videos from you, i might consider playing it one of these days . lol
3:06 Didn't even need to say it lmao. said it for me, cheers eclipse
A dev that actually give a flying thing about a game is honestly rare these days
I played tca with my friend we got jumped once we got to lvl 16 and we quit for a couple months and after i watched your video me and my friend gave it a another chance and we had fun so me and my friend played it again is fun the game is on xbox so i really like it
I think the statement "don't get block broken or you're gonna have a bad time" is true for just about any stand except KQ
i really hope this game blows up one day, im truly enjoying it
wsp eclipse keep up the good work i relly enjoy these reviews.
I haven't watched your videos in so long
I'll try out tca now thanks
I gave tca a try and now im hooked. thanks for showing me such a great jjba game
Yo eclipse i finally play tca with my friend and i can say its very fun and easy to lvl up and it was very funny,i found a random dude helping me with the last boss (the angry bird thing)
Thanks eclipse! Now i know what stand to get next time
I tried this game with a friend like two days ago and I ended up playing for six hours straight, this game just feels like better YBA and felt like a good throwback. But I’m excited to see it grow out of YBA’s shadow
Hey eclipse i love the work you put into your videos and tca has been a bunch of fun since ive played it, have a wonderful day.
I was really struggling against good twoh players, now i might have a chance of fighting it. Thx for the video
been slowly starting to get into this game, it actually seems pretty fun! Been liking the combat system so far
big thanks to you for showing us TCA, because I was already tired of yba, it just isn’t fun anymore, and then there is TCA, which it has gave me lots of funny moments, I hope one day it will become a more popular game
Thanks of course for the video. I never played this game and chance winning the giveaway is relatively low but still why not, maybe after winning I will start playing.
I played TCA when it had 30 players and no npcs worked. Pretty neat being at the very beggining of a new game
I can't count how many times I've ran into random TWOH users who think they're hot shit lmao. The stand's cool and all, but like, you're not God himself for having it lol. Anyway, banger video as always.
your my fav youtuber you make my day just by me watching your videos ty for doing this!
crazy to see how this game still only has 50 players...it should be so much bigger
Love U Eclipse, Keep Up The Good Stuff
Great video
Eclipse content hooray :D
Glad that eclipse finally found a game that he enjoys
