Godly level of play aside, what I adore about your videos is that they showcase the incredible amount of strategic depth and variety possible in Sekiro, which (if on the surface not having as much variety as Souls) has a near limitless level of variety possible in play. absolutely brilliant work as always
@@swagiro824 So go play Sekiro? Who are you talking to, anyway? No one said anything about other souls games. Go flame Elden Ring somewhere else. No one cares about your hyperbolic hatred of a game that hasn't released yet.
I got all achievements for Sekiro and finished all Gauntlets, but only after I started watching you I got an appreciation with status effects. Coming from souls games, statuses you could inflict are almost always worse than direct damage you can deal, so you usually don't bother with them. But Sekiro is more defensive and more tactical, and every chip damage counts for dropping enemy from fast stamina regen to slow one. I gotta run through the game again, only this time using fire and poison tools more. Your usage of shinobi tools is so on point, it's like watching another game completely.
@@picklepickle922 Think he's talking about the subtle spear as Isshin is catching the lightning and Ongbal starts the Sakura dance at the last possible second lol insane
It’s always an amazing experience when a boss you’ve spent hundreds of hours to do a no-hit run w/ demon bell and charmless gets absolutely slapped around by Ongbal in less than 5 minutes.. wonderful work as always!
It's feel like i can't never do that, especially when using keyboard and mouse (my mouse sometimes double click too, making me missed deflect or mikiri or jump), and pc that can't stable at 60fps lol.
Had my not so good day, but seeing you upload it just makes my day, for real! At this point I don't have to say, amazing amazing video as always, and thank you Ongbal🙏
My biggest takeaway from this video is learning that you can use Sakura Dance to trigger Lightning Reversal, I had no idea. I swear I learn new things about this game constantly
And to get the Sakura Dance you need to beat Inner Genichiro... But understandably one is more worried about defeating him than about which move he uses to reverse lightning.
@@kadinwisniewski6928 the biggest difference between genichiro and inner is that inner can reverse lighting with sakura dance I guess you never tried to reverse it
Thank you Ongbal. Then i saw you video, I realize that if i practice more i can reach skill level like that and make some good moves (like deflecting Genetiro comco with big hat)
I may not execute these as well--I mean, I definitely don't--but I have learnt a lot about how to play these games by watching your videos. Well done, man.
You had one spirit emblem left at the end of the fight...........suboptimal ;) Happy New Year Ongbal, I hope to see more amazing showcases from you this year. I will skipping the first few Elden Ring videos since I doubt I will finish it before you :)
dude you have so many big brain moments with the sen throw, it surprises me every single time. I think we underestimated it for a long time. You also really make the spear shine as a chasedown weapon too.
This has to be the nastiest simple trick in all of sekiro 2:53 Standing in owl's firecracker combo just wrecks you. Getting mikiri'd by owl wrecks you even worse. But this man just stands still and thrusts, which carries him out of the firecrackers AND staggers owl out of his followup slash. I don't know how he even thought of trying that.
im just so dumbstruck... this is incredible. He took down Owl in a minute while I had to run around the arena like a moron waiting for him to throw Shurikens so I could get a hit in...
Ongbal u have opened my eyes to how i see this game. I never used to use prophetics like flaming axe in fights. From now on ill try make use of all tools like axe spear and sabimaru. Thank you
The amount of dissrespect *chef kiss*. Also, i'm convinced that Ongbal was holding in tacobells #2 untill he can clear this gauntlet. I can practically hear him yell DIE FASTER!!!
Hey, I found a quite stylish way to avoid Inner Isshin's 2° phase combo (the sweep attack+mid-air spear slash+thrust/charged wind attack): Just as Isshin has finished raising the sword, one instant before he starts charging towards you, jump and try to get on his side. Then, while being in air, jump again on his head for posture damage. Although, this has to be very precise as you'll jump just millimetres above Isshin's spear. Wolf will then land on the ground just in time to block either the thrust attack or the charged attack.
Also, the slow, charged wind+spear attack he does in 2° phase can be avoided by performing the Sakura dance. If you start the combo before the "air particles" have entered his body, you will interrupt the attack. If you do it immediately before or in the moment the particles have entered his body, the last of the 3 hits of the dance will hit him after his attack. It's quite cinematic.
the way you jumped right after owl and got past his sword by inches then slammed down on his head with the axe was just...... never seen a cooler move in this game
Amazing. at 2:14 during owl fight I tried to replicate what you did but with mortal blade and I fail. How exactly does one avoid taking damage from it?
Could someone explain what happens at 2:24 with getting the first deathblow off on Owl? From what I see, it looks like Sekiro parrying those shuriken is what gets Owl into the deathblow state, which doesn't make sense. Is something else going on?
I like how everyone says thats an extreme challenge and rediculously hard to do and then there is this guy like at the end of the fight "im all warmed up now when do we start with the bosses?" xD
2:14 How tf did you do that???? Before, I thought you needed the mid-air Mortal Blade. Either it is several prosthetics/combat arts allows Sekiro a specific body gesture, or it's the difference between the performance of PC vs. PS4
6:36 throws oil urn. sets his body on fire.
isshin: how my blood boils.

Seriously, it always bugs me when people say the weapon arts and prosthetic weapons are useless. They just don't know how to use 'em.
@@BaldorfBreakdowns ONGBAL teaches us about this
And humour too,like hitting the guardian apes arse constantly even though it can't take any damage.
Nah sekiro combat is infinitely more fun to me than any of the souls games and i hate how elden ring didn’t borrow more of sekiros mechanics
@@swagiro824 So go play Sekiro? Who are you talking to, anyway? No one said anything about other souls games. Go flame Elden Ring somewhere else. No one cares about your hyperbolic hatred of a game that hasn't released yet.
2:23
That parry on the shurikens makes absolutely no sense, but I love it 😂
It hurts Owl’s feelings.
Lmao as soon as I read this he did it lol I’m weak ts don’t make sense but it is nice ...like a lil teleport
@@Pharthrax "it hurts my heart, Wolf. To see that bs you just did"
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE

do you remember the times when bleed was so op in ds3 that it was literally easy mode. status effects are not always useless lol
I only need the last ending trophy the purification one
@@justvibin1448 Bleed now is broken again, but in another game
7:19 that lightning reverse combo though…
How he did that ?
@@FunkyKarim93 its the Sakura dance. You get it after completing the Divine heir gauntlet

what’s the demon bell do?
@@Rai.Rai22 I think it makes enemies more aggressive and are generally harder to fight
Basically buffs the enemy
If you spent hundreds of hours fighting them then you should be spanking them in 5mins too. Lol. Ongbal is definitely an artist with this game.

that first phase of Guardian Ape had me in awe
I died more times to the 1st phase of the ape than to ishin in the end
@@porcus123the first phase is always so hard the moves are unpredictable
Finally beat this one today, thanks for showing me how to deal with Isshin's sweep combo in second phase!
Most people will never understand how amazing this video is. The beauty, the art, it is mesmerizing
The fact that he can change tools and utilize them so quickly and also he can exploit any little delay from enemy attack to land some hit is amazing.
It's feel like i can't never do that, especially when using keyboard and mouse (my mouse sometimes double click too, making me missed deflect or mikiri or jump), and pc that can't stable at 60fps lol.
UA-cam didn't really need to hide dislikes
Coz no one would get disappointed by ongbal's god lvl skills
Had my not so good day, but seeing you upload it just makes my day, for real!

My biggest takeaway from this video is learning that you can use Sakura Dance to trigger Lightning Reversal, I had no idea. I swear I learn new things about this game constantly
if you played vs inner genichiro you would learn that sakura can reverse lighting
And to get the Sakura Dance you need to beat Inner Genichiro... But understandably one is more worried about defeating him than about which move he uses to reverse lightning.
@@xabubkrx2800 ??? You need to beat Inner Genichiro to get Sakura Dance in the first place so I don't know what you think you're trying to say
@@kadinwisniewski6928 the biggest difference between genichiro and inner is that inner can reverse lighting with sakura dance I guess you never tried to reverse it
@@xabubkrx2800 I never saw him do that 🤷♂️
I've read there's a restraint order being sent to ONGBAL right now, signed by all the bosses from Sekiro.
When I watch one of your videos I get mesmerized. Such an amazing display of skill!
Throughout your videos you make use of every shinobi tool and item this game offers in combat. Absolutely masterful.
Ape firecracker cheese is something I have never heard of. Thanks for the heads up.
Man that Isshin disrespect at the end, brutal
Thank you Ongbal. Then i saw you video, I realize that if i practice more i can reach skill level like that and make some good moves (like deflecting Genetiro comco with big hat)
I may not execute these as well--I mean, I definitely don't--but I have learnt a lot about how to play these games by watching your videos. Well done, man.
Again and again you impressed me.
You are Insane! This needs waay more views!
Watching you play is better than those "speed run"!
The spear to sakura dance: INSANE
Owl: "it's been a long time since we've done this"
After first phase: "you know we don't have to continue fighting."
I love the almost casual disdain when wolf tosses oil on the boss. Like ‘yep, get ready to burn again’
You had one spirit emblem left at the end of the fight...........suboptimal ;)
Happy New Year Ongbal, I hope to see more amazing showcases from you this year.
I will skipping the first few Elden Ring videos since I doubt I will finish it before you :)
I’m taking notes on your owl fight. That was beautiful
dude you have so many big brain moments with the sen throw, it surprises me every single time. I think we underestimated it for a long time. You also really make the spear shine as a chasedown weapon too.
Just when you think there is absolutely no new technique he can introduce…
This has to be the nastiest simple trick in all of sekiro 2:53
Standing in owl's firecracker combo just wrecks you. Getting mikiri'd by owl wrecks you even worse.
But this man just stands still and thrusts, which carries him out of the firecrackers AND staggers owl out of his followup slash.
I don't know how he even thought of trying that.
Any chance you're gonna do any DMC 5 stuff? It just feels like it's right up your alley. I would love to see you play that game.
That gun cancel at 6:45 was interesting! I never thought to use the spear like that!
im just so dumbstruck... this is incredible. He took down Owl in a minute while I had to run around the arena like a moron waiting for him to throw Shurikens so I could get a hit in...
That’s such a stylish Isshin kill.
That was just... I have no words. A total exhibition
When ongbal uploads we must stop & watch lord ongbal is love lord ongbal is life
It seems all that training really came in handy. :)
I've beaten this game FIVE TIMES and I had no idea that you could take out the Guardian Ape's first form with firecrackers alone. That's mind blowing.
I LOVE HOW HE IGNORES THE ENEMY ATTACKS LIKE THEY ARE NOT HAPPENING !!!
Every time I watch Ongbal's videos I learn something new
Damn From software MUST work on Sekiro 2 damn it. Seeing how Ongbal plays this game proofs that it is their best and most beautiful game !
Awesome great strategic use of prosthetic tool i didnt know the sakura dance could be used to redirect lightning.
Man I love those perfectly timed umbrellas
Ongbal u have opened my eyes to how i see this game. I never used to use prophetics like flaming axe in fights. From now on ill try make use of all tools like axe spear and sabimaru. Thank you

진짜 항상 놀라고갑니다... 옹발님
6:29 you literally made SS hesitate and you got the death blow. Probably the most badass thing i’ve seen.
I mean, I don´t know what to say, you always make an excellent job and is just EPIC
Parrying the monk as she came down was so completely unnecessary, but I guess that’s what makes Ongbal the goat
7:02 the most badass candy eating i have ever seen
"Local 15th century cyborg flexes on old man"
WHAT. IN. THE. WORLD!!
This is too good
It had never occurred to me to avoid the shouts of the guardian ape with the shield!
Me: about to skip the Guardian Ape fight as I consider myself capable in that fight
ONGBAL: hold my purple firecrackers.
well done mate
The thumbnail gave me the chills.

Another episode of "Ongbal bullying the Sekiro bosses".
Amazing, never in my life i thought you can use anything other than the sword again the lightning bolts
How did you do ittttttttt. I hinestly came across this video when i sat on the toilet seat and i am commenting still sitting on it. Unbeliavable
이분 한국사람같은데 그 스피드런 한다는 한국최고라는 양반보다 더한것같어. 내눈엔 님이 베스트오브베스트임 👍
감사합니다 :)
the way you jumped right after owl and got past his sword by inches then slammed down on his head with the axe was just...... never seen a cooler move in this game
He’s warming up for Elden Ring
That inner Isshin fight was insane
It really feels like watching a TAS bot playing. Very impressive gameplay, as always!
I've never seen these guys to utterly disrespected.
Dude, that guardian ape 1st phase cheese just made me like... bruh?
*perfection* 🤌
Flawless 💯
Amazing as always
2:28 You are the fool who dares to challenge ongobal the phionex's lailac umbrella saint
That’s crazy, I didn’t even get to see Isshins combos in phase 2😂
Teabagging a dead old man is not something one would expect from undying ninja guards.
it's 2022 and this man is still obliterating absolutely anyone on this game
This might be the highest level of sekiro gameply I have ever seen
I really love to see the hand cam while ONGBAL playing sekiro. I can tell that he so calm while playing. Or is he?
Amazing. at 2:14 during owl fight I tried to replicate what you did but with mortal blade and I fail. How exactly does one avoid taking damage from it?
That's an axe
@@poopunofficial4435 if you check ongbals speedrun of great shinobi owl you will see him using a mortal blade so it works either way
You should check distant and timing. It's hard to explain but you can feel it easily :)
Amazing skill
2:24.what just happened there. Someone explain to me what happened there
Could someone explain what happens at 2:24 with getting the first deathblow off on Owl? From what I see, it looks like Sekiro parrying those shuriken is what gets Owl into the deathblow state, which doesn't make sense. Is something else going on?
that's bug
if you can deathblow with next one parry and parry shuriken you can deathblow owl
I like how everyone says thats an extreme challenge and rediculously hard to do and then there is this guy like at the end of the fight "im all warmed up now when do we start with the bosses?" xD
Well, you didn’t hesitate for sure
How he didn't hit you on 2:14, when you both jumped and you used an axe? Didn't see you blocking it. He missed?
Owl's attack has short empty hit box at that moment.
@@_ONGBAL bro, you're a god, how do you even found this
Bro i wish i could deflect every single attack im good at it but im not god tier like ongbal but good video my guy😭💯👏🏾
Beautiful

Nah the oil splashes at the end were personal
You're still the best Shisho
What is a Saint
To Sword God Ongbal?
wait no fucking shot does taking out the axe midair on 2:13 make you dodge owl's overhead slam?
Owl's attack has short empty hitbox at that moment if you jump in close range.
@@_ONGBAL you always teach me new things, ongbal
2:25 so deflecting Owl's shuriken breaks his posture?
Damn awesome gameplay
Thanks
How did you deal so much posture damage with that umbrella while charging into him during that attack? 2:37

Wonderful
