- See I told you I'd fix the audio.
When it comes to gacha games, units can be good in one set of circumstances, and horrible in others. Today I bring you a case of a unit whose utility has been long forgotten, and why I also think he's just neat.

"Twelve F*cking Yi sang."
"Holy sh*t."

That card
But one can ever hope to replicate the 12 entire seven yi sang meta back in the day
12 fucking yi sangs
“”

on the flipside BL sang went from bruh to yoooooooooooooo so it's all good
Uptie 4 for BL Yi Sang was a blessing. only becoming even more powerful with Kim and the BL gang. rollinga 20 on his S1 is nuts
Wait. 7 Yi Sang was meta?
I did make him my dps during RR2 and MD2H
Seven Yi Sang was definitely an up-and-coming unit; there was one guy in particular that talked a lot about how 7Yi could fuel Legerdemain very well, and with the skill cycling bug (shield to erase bottom skill), 7Yi was actually useful more than half the time (I.E. when he's not using skill 1).
As it stands, though:
1. His clash power is dogwater,
2. His skill intercept capabilities are outclassed by aggro mechanics (not that you'd want aggro on 7Yi because of how bad he is at long-term tanking compared to units like Hobocliff and K Corp Hong Lu),
3. Legerdemain isn't particularly meta anymore since most characters have HE/WAW EGO that target half the field now
4. Pierce teams aren't centralizing anymore (since there are ways to make a status effect team for all of the 7 debuff types now)
5. Sin affinities are arguably more relevant than damage relevance now (since stagger makes all damage types fatal, but sin weaknesses are kept the same).
6. Half of 7Yi's skills (I.E. all of his skill 1s) do no damage
There'll probably be some sort of future niche speedrun use for him on a pierce-specific stage, but especially given the poor XP scaling from Luxcavations vs. xp needed for next level, getting a max level 7Yi is becoming less and less worth it.
I like his skill 3 animation. It's kinda silly but I don't care.
Nah. He had bad clashing prowess and bad damage in a world where damage mattered the most(RR1) where you had BL Yi Sang. He was outclassed all the way until Uptie 4 where he FINALLY got good at clashing but by then you already had Spicebush and full power BL Sang, there were more better 00s from other sinners and he also didn't fit into any of the status teams.
@@Dunjunmstr Point #4 is quite literally just straight up wrong.
WAIT WAIT- the cafe?? Is that why Yi Sang got the Starbuck ID? Because Starbuck wanted to open a restaurant too??
Don’t worry, he’ll become viable after a 7 association focused event where we get the Dante ID, and now all members apply double the status effects and furthermore decrease the clash power of enemy atks (cope)
Let the Seven ID based off Dante be Don so the entire fandom calls her Donte I beg.
Double status effects? Not on my 7cliff!!!
@@allergyjelly you are evil and i think project moon should hire you
@@allergyjellyPlez blay Dee Em Cee 2 Donte is gud he shuut da gun!
my favorite limbus 00 is Liu Gregor, I know the accepted meta nowadays is to leave him off the Burn team, and I can't really argue hes a better option, but I believe in him. His Skill 1 can struggle to roll an 11 but that doesn't matter if the enemy simply rolls all tails despite the improbability. He simply wins despite the unlikelihood of it happening. Hopefully he'll get a 3+ Coin EGO someday
Carried me through Cantos 1-3, love em ❤
That's because he has +5 ofense lvl
Liu Gregor + Liu Meursault are my dads.
I HATE him cause ITS the only Gregor id I have after I did ALL the canto content
You know Door will have unfinished business with you, the combo of Door, Miss Radio, and Necrologist. I'll be waiting.
Legit the exact same comp I used except with a dps I don't rememer instead of radio.
It's so good
super nice to see takes on characters that are this in depth about their kits no matter how niche they are
seeing any sort of content that could be either "lol this unit is doody cheeks" or "this unit is actually pretty good" feels more interesting than a farmwatch meme but either way good content!!
Fun fact for those who don’t know: Ring Sang can actually work amazingly with rupture. I’m not joking. There’s a video analyzing rupture teams, skip to the graph part and learn about the graph then skip to both Warp Sang and Ring Sang parts to see what I mean. (Basically Ring Sang better cough cough.)
How to sum this up with one word why Ring Sang is good no matter what: Reuse
I swear if it wasn’t for the mess of all the statuses he applies, I wouldn’t have underestimated him as much as I did… (still got him… twice… once from sharding, the other from trying to pull ring outis, I did not get her)
Well, with an asterisk, that asterisk being "when you can start a battle with Dimension Shredder."
Seven Yi Sang wasn't meta, that's why he recruited eleven other identical versions of himself, transforming into Erkling Yi Sang, and leading his Seven Yi Sang army into battle.
The right storm can make any unit relevant.
Potential Man got his during Canto 6.
W Don was considered mediocre on game launch by the same reasons as 7Sang but longer fights and Telepole made her top Nuker.
Just the right buff or the right support can make any ID explode.
Cinq Association? Needs haste.
Do you know who the singular person that can force-feed his coworkers haste is? THAT’S RIGHT!
OUR LOCAL DEPRESSED KOREAN MAN!!
Also, 7 Association GOAT Sang carried me through Canto IV’s Dungeon.
Seven Yi Sang was the ID I loved over Blade lineage when the game first launched so I'm happy to see a video giving him some attention. Niches I found for him are that he's the fastest Yi Sang ID (5-8 Speed) currently without conditionals. This helps a lot when you want to speedrun MD by starting wave fights with Sunshower or even 4th Match Flame to set up Burn conditonals on the first turn.
Farmwatch Outis loss was the moment I realized oh. OK the big IDs are "bad ends", we already got Yi Sang bad end, so there's no reason to get farmwatch. Broke my fucking heart but it makes sense.
7 Yi Sang sounds like a good flexible support. Justice for my boy
i feel like the perfect target audience for these videos. just knowledgeable enough about PM to enjoy the jokes/references and to understand the mechanics of the games, while also just un-knowledgeable enough to really appreciate and get inevsted in these kinds of explanatory videos. also, i think you're really funny. keep it up 👍
I'm a big fan of Yi Sang in Limbus so I am very happy you explained the cultural background between Seven Yi Sang and his love of coffee, with the real life Yi Sang having his own cafe!
Since you gave us so many fun team builds, here's another quirky trick with 7 Yi Sang: Run him as the 6th unit in your Mirror Dungeon BURN TEAM! With a 5-8 speed range he's tied for the fastest (Turn 1) unit in the entire game, and 4th Match Flame is the fastest-animating EGO in the game. Putting him on a Burn team lets him slap down 4MM on the first turn in order to turn on all the conditionals on your other team members with consistent quick AoE burn application.
For a channel with only two videos so far the quality is fantastic and the videos are pretty entertaining.. I hope to see more in the future 👍👍
3:17 A lore reason on why the Seven Association Fixers id are scattershot is found in 7 Yi Sang's upite story.
He explained how they use techniques from other Association's like Zwei and Cinq.
The potential man video was already really good and I’m very excited to see your future with my ears intact
The chrono ark music in the background 👌
rupture is basically true damage
True! (damage)
honestly just curious about 7 yisang cuz i used him a lot😆
and yeah the audio is better now thank you, you have really nice voice😊
such a fun video! cant wait to see more. also holy shit Door mention!!!
Holy moly i had just finished watching the previous video and this one releases!!
He maybe a bench warmer to some. But he’s a coffee lover like me and that’s all that matters.
SHE POSTED AGAIN LETS GO
Don't forget the outlaw of the 7's: Ryoshu with her slash fragility... early days of Limbus seem fun and innocent
Lovely format, may vote for the "MasoShist" as the next underdogs (Democracy is a lie!!!)
11:29 First section of RR4, Ncorp without Meur / Clair, but instead Ringsang (What can I say... bleed?) and... lvl 24 base Ryoshu, cause "I need Glutony & Pride for later on, and when she dies N.clair will start rolling"
40 turns on that section, she helped to clear protraits, evade the boss and proc whistles early on, God bless that woman
Can't wait for your 1427th video to still explain what sinners are in the intro. Also god seven association is the most lackluster scatterbrained faction gameplay wise. Since uptie 4 already rolled and still no unifying change enrolled with 7 assoc upties, it's joever for them even more than farmwatch believers. Unless they roll uptie 5, cause there is NO way they add more 7s, what with more interesting syndicate factions and Ruins lore which both have much more potential being revealed through Dieci Meuersault's uptie story.
"A swing for an Ahn, a swing for an Ahn."
bro forgor 7 faust and 7 heathcliff exist.
Come on I gotta do it for the two guys in the back who aren't as brainrotted as I am! What if they're only here because they like my funny cat images???
@agzzradface3113 Well that's like saying only Ishmael and Rodion exists for Liu, or Yi Sang and Meuersault for BL. Like as dogwater the older 2 star and 3 star IDs are in their respective factions, they AT LEAST mantain synergies. While i look at 7 and ask "where rupture" cause you sure as hell ain't finding it without Talisman Sinc or Lure Don.
@@allergyjelly YOU HAVE CAT IMAGES?
megami tensei AND chrono ark music in a limbus video? mythical recommendation…
Someone else already mentioned it but holy shit Chrono Ark music. Ur so real for that
Gotta say this video was really good. I appreciate the fact that you went into the literary references, which I feel is an under represented aspect of this game. My personal favorite unit is BL Yi-Sang (I adore not having a single skill that does nothing) so hearing some support for the other season 1 Yi-Sang is nice.
Goated music choice and so far I'm 0-2 on watching your vids without the old UI jumpscaring me
PeakJelly uploaded, Today is a good day
I miss Dragalia Lost truly a fav of mine
Also great work I'm gonna miss the previous audio quality, it gave it a funny quality I liked throughout but understand it had to be fixed
All to say another banger video
What do you people want from me?!?!?
Great vid! Thanks for sharing a bit of Limbus history for us newer player that started in season 3.
Do i hear Chrono Ark music? Hell yeah
Two videos two ABSOLUTE BANGERS
7 is weird because they shifted from a vulnerability/clash focus to rupture. I mean the rupture was always there but it wasn't their focus or anything. As a result they don't mesh at all.
We never got a Blunt fragility 7 ID either
Base Ishmael skill 3 inflicts 1 same turn blunt fragile, but other than that nothing
Oh wait yeah 7 ID, but aside from ryoshus god awful “slash” skill and 7 Outis s3 there’s no good blunt to take advantage of if you’re running pure 7 association
WHAT THE FUCK DRAGALIA LOST MENTIONED
Btw, I am glad to have you in the limbus content creation community. New voices are always amazing!
As someone who experienced a variation of the 12 seven yi sang Glitch, I came upon one where the _only_ unit who was not changed was Kraust, which just made me imagine she was corned against all Eleven 7 (Heh) Yi Sang.
Just finished watching all 3 vids youve posted so far
Fantastic work, I'm really looking forward to what you cover next. Keep it up!
PotentialJelly posted!!! Truly was the peak of the heights today!
Haah... I tried a bit harder.
@@allergyjellyfor real though, really good content. Keep it up and don’t let the world bring you down.
You are potential woman!!!

Hey what’s the art source for 9:56?
Cause it doesn’t appear in the pastebin
Isn't that just the official art from in-game itself during Tingtang scene? Or one of the trailers?
@@nakoamechi Both, it was used as a still in a Canto II cutscene, but you can find an upload of it animated on PM's official UA-cam.
@@allergyjelly I’m guessing it’s from before Vellmori got the proportions down?
Funny thing about Dragalia Lost, at one point (when that gowing dragon vault challenge thing got released), one of the best support units was one of the free story units. Why? Because of her active skill which buffed all allies attack. It wasn't the biggest thing, but it can get 100% uptime. This brought to the public eye units who ultimately did shit damage AND couldn't heal, but gave amazing utility due to being able to always buff the party with good pacing and the proper load out. The unit was eventually outclassed and even then, it was always kept to this one niche, but don't overlook the free units(akak welfare units) as well!.
Seriously, Base Heath carries for a good chunk of the story fights in canto 3(blunt weak enemies, no slash attacks to hit his weakness).
THE AUDIO IS FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! also i love your videos so far, they're really really good and i haven't seen people really talk about such interesting limbus topics c:
0:05 LOOK PATRICK THATS ME
Okay but jokes aside another banger video. Very excited for the farmwatch vid that will totally come out
*puts on nerd emoji glasses
Ummm acktually Seven Yi Sang was used in RR3 world record runs for the entire 3rd section with corroded Dim Shredder and using the pierce fragility to make ahab more weak to pierce
Rolls dont matter since you are just spamming ego and the 5-8 speed range helps immensely too
I am now officially 7 Sang-pilled. Thank you for inviting me to the cult.
Actually, Ruina's Seven had the exact same gimmick as the majority of Limbus' Seven IDs. They specialized in inflicting Fragile, which used to work like Rupture sidegrade (+X damage modifier that doesn't go away on hit and instead is removed on turn end; it also was affected by other damage modifiers, like Limbus' Fragile, rather than being bonus damage) rather than Smoke downgrade that is Limbus Fragile. Dante, the named keypage, also had Weakness Analyzed or whatever, which is basically same as it is now. We don't talk about the other Dante passive.
Seven Yi sang would still be my id due to yurodivy ryoshu and hong lu having pierce s2 and s3, and qing sinclair too I guess
2.29k subs with 2 vids in 3 weeks, the PM sleeper agents do be going at it again.
Thanks for using my footage.
I still kinda don't get the existence of this video.
Literally, his only usage was being a fast Fragile applicator and ego usage, because cringe skill set design doesn't help him do anything other than that.
Now, with the existence of Ring, any other Yi Sang ID is pretty much dead except Spicebush.
I hoped for more analytical approach to his strengths and weaknesses and showing some more historic use cases(also to say if there arent any) considering the title and the thumbnail. Still an enjoyable video just not what i was expecting
Seven sang is a case that every ID has a place at least somewhere, doesnt matter how overshadowed or below standards they can be, you can always find a way to make people work somewhere.
My favorite example of this is how I’m mariachi sinclair’s strongest soldier despite how abhorrently bad he is, yet the moment he was given the aggro from blubberbubble and the max speed up from railway 4 my Jefe became the all star top dog for dodging scary hits from start to end
Use you who like, youll find a way ❤
7 Yi Sang is still my go-to setup/backup unit simply because of his consistently high speed range to pair with his E.G.O. choices.
I use him in burn teams to 4th match everything on turn 1 to get everyone's burn conditionals immediately.
He consistently outspeeds to use Base Ego, Wishing Cairn and Sunshower to trigger defensive buffs and debuffs.
9:10
But 7Sang Was used in the 27 turn clear even after the Ring came out. The only fight Ring was used in was spiral of contempt where he was benchwarming for base ish to heal sp on wingbeat.
I just finished making a paralyze team and ran it in MD and he was there. I had so much nostalgia because I ran him all the time (wasn’t a fan of BL) and had a blast!
This video taught Me the Pierce fragility from his skill 3 is next turn. I dont know why I mandala effected this but I thought his skill 3 inflicted same turn fragility
Don't worry to much, you are doing great.
Ngl the only thing I remembered about the older 7 assoc. IDs are their art, that and how debuff units became the hype of the town only for everyone to go back to damage IDs 💀
I didn't realize that your potential man vid had audio problems
I used him as my emergency bench unit for MD2H to throw out a fast Sunshower on the fifth floor. Speed range is actually a pretty interesting metric when thinking about IDs. Even now Base Ishmael is the fastest of her IDs; making her the best ID to throw out Blind Obsession every turn. "But Captain Ishmael's speed is only slightly below! She's just better!" If you're spamming Blind Obsession your actual kit doesn't matter at all!!
personally, i use zwei faust simply because she's the only id i can think of that has envy pierce skill 1 (i run an envy team and its 50/50 blunt pierce) with gloom and lust skill 2 &3 respectively. she's literally the perfect id for all of my ego resource needs and also allows me to use fluid sac. (this video would make me use seven sang if it weren't for starsang having relentless stabbing, let alone being part of the pequod.)
7 Sang was good because every other Sang was really bad
The Spicebush happened, and it turned out that 7 Sang is bad aswell
(Also that game went from fragile centered gameplay to more status, like sinking, poise, rapture or poise)
Speaking of rupture, can you make a video on Talisman Sinclair? I've yet to see an ID get so many people saying how terrible it is while at the same time be considered irreplaceable in the one comp it's actually good in.
I take great offense to you even alluding that Shi Don is worse than Cinq Don. I see a poise unit with better haste generation (and thus better speed), only a slightly worse s1, a slightly better s2, and an infinitely better s3 that can clash better unconditionally without needing 2+ skill slots and struggle for a conditional that needs a prior use of s3 to get without good luck.... anyways great vid! Love to see more limbus analysis content!
7 Yi Sang was meta!?
He was in my heart...
Bait used to be believa....Wait is that Seven Association Yi Sang?
seven yi sang is a must uptie 4 i think because i remember using him during the first refraction railway and i got upset that riposte rolled a nine (9) maximum and he couldnt win a clash like 90% of the time
9:13 the yi sang "kehmg" hell's chicken jumpscare
I mean to be fair it's not like every ID can be "meta" all at the same time
My brain had to stop and restart at 1:20 when I heard those familiar beats. Chrono Ark love ❤️
All old ID obvious problem are the fact they kit are outdated
If pm ACTUALLY try balance out the if and make them have a interesting mechanic to play,i think he would be viabltin some fight or team set up
That's kind of the problem with gacha games in general. Old units will get outclassed eventually, because it is not reasonably feasible to constantly upgrade the old units. That's a lot of work for no gain, when a new unit could easily rack in a good few bucks.
Project moon has yet to explore paralysis teams and let me tell you something
Next turn 3 paralysis, once ever three turns is massive. You know the next turn the boss is gonna do something funny, you paralysis, that's it, they now don't have a special attack. The only realistic competitor is B Kim salt's 7-10(?notsure) next turn aoe paralysis which is subjectively stronger albeit once every 6 turns, also having the flaw where you can't control it if the enemy only has one hail mary attack and you win every other clash before it.
I like that this video is about 14 minutes long, 2 times 7 is 14, and 7yi is a 2 star id
2 star 7 Yi Sang , 14 Yi Sang star.
Help
Well this comment is a fresh one. Oh well. I have to say watching your two videos is making me doenload Limbus company. Wish me luck
You'll need it, soldier. o7
Allergy upload hype!!!!
I love seven yi sang, I got him pretty early on and he’s just stuck around in my main team rn.
so real that yi sang gets paid for his tea shop
I just like.. 1-2 turn with a full Rupture team.. Battery and Thunderbranch does the job. If you can't wipe them first turn after landing Heath's S3, and or Faust's other S3 after all the rupture, turn 2 they're parts are probably broken (except for 3 bosses) then just murk them :€
For some reason your videos about Limbus have me disagreeing with every single point, or at the very least with that point's phrasing and structure until the very end, where I have to agree with the final message. I just find the structure and pacing quite difficult to watch as a deeply involved player from release, since a lot of things that feel like they need to be adressed, but aren't. But yeah, PM's deepstate definitely murdered my boy Seven Yi Sang with Ring Sang release, may he rest in 3 Paralysis next turn.
Genuinely don't understand where the explanation of Rupture was going, true, Seven Yi Sang is not great at rupture, true Rupture is a cryptid, K Lu and Dead Rabbits Meursalt are not that great for rupture either, it could have a point if it were to have more focus on how release IDs had a lot more access to Paralysis and Fragility, but had really low status apllications (aside from LCCB Ishmael), but that was not mentioned, although that would have been a nice point to make. Anyway as a rupture-interested individual I consider all points invalid, due to lack of spreadsheets when talking about Rupture. /j
I’m glad my primary critique is “AllergyJelly you aren’t getting autistic enough”.
Jokes aside I find it difficult to include every little detail while still trying to tell a story that’s understandable to new players or people who don’t play Limbus. Though I will admit I can definitely improve on making things more accurate. Glad you enjoyed it though :)
7 Yi Sang does have another upside that, while not a big one and does require some team building, is not nothing. With his passive active all of his skills essentially have a floor of 7 during a clash. Which is nice in early turns when everyone's sanity isn't at 45 and no one can rely on hitting heads. You do need to build a Gluttony res team to get that with any level of consistency, but I do enjoy making Gluttony res teams to make use of Legerdemain EGO passive so I do tend to put 7 Yi Sang in those teams
Can't wait for the Farmwatch and Erlking video
Thanks for the video. You gave me an idea to make a team to pierce the heavens. My fave 00 ID is LCCB Ryoshu due to being a Blunt Poise ID and for her funny S3, my fave 000 ID is still N Faust due to her Whistles Passive and dealing a variety of status effects.
Hey i am in the video!
You are in the video
7sang got me through his chapter and he will always have a special place in my heart for that (I was sleeping on BLsang annd wasn't aware how good he was forgive me I was a moron) (>_
Seven Yi Sang my beloved. Carried me for 5-6 months up until I got Spicebush Yi Sang.
My baby. Champion of Canto 4. Seven Yi Sang for the win!
I finded so funny using seven yisang when dimension released and having a jpg result screen because he actually was top damage
See, you probably already know this but the 7 sang support passive is hell to get cause its not owned, its a-resonance 8:38
Waiter waiter! More ring sang please!
Jokes aside I was very happy to help with the research :)
The prescripts tell you to make a farmwatch video next april fools
6:10 I didn't know they renamed damage up to fragile, why not just say ¨makes enemies take more damage¨
FARM WATCH NEXT LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Maybe this time... Maybe this time he'll be real... Please...
s2g if this carmen chick doesn't stop talking to me im gonna lose it
Technically sloshing Ishmael can have all of her skills be rupture count positive while applying rupture so she isn’t trash I promise please I can only cope so hard
Two videos of Ring Yi Sang and R corp Heathcliff back to back lol~
Some ID's may be garbage but that aint stopping me from usin em :D
I just want my farm's watch back...
