0:45 I never get tired of Atreus' little additions to the combat. Tacks on an extra arrow for good measure along with a taunt, all in am instant while staying in the fight.
People give me shit for saying this, but I think this is far and away the best melee combat system ever in a game. Once you master Kratos, the possibilities are staggering
They really did something different with the stance changes. The Nioh series did it first, but Sucker Punch basing the stances on the opponents weapon was a pretty genius move. I completely agree that it's up there among the best melee systems
I'm definitely behind that aswell, the combat system of this game is sick, Axe/Blades everything is really satisfying and fun in fighting, and unique as opposed other games too. It's best imo too for sure.
I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching you play this game. The combat in this game is just so damn fluid and beautiful to watch, especially when played by a master
YESS!! Your back. & On GOW. Even though you've been mastering other games, still one of the best no damage, ultra instinct players on the scene. You give GBG a run for his combos. Thanks for the great content you provide.
SmvR hands down ur my favorite to watch playing GOW. It’s a lot player that can play Kratos no question about that but ur moves and combos are seemly smooth. They are no where near as clumsy and radical as some I have seen. The way u control the character in my opinion is just shy of genius. When I saw the alert in my time line my initial though was “Awe Hell who ass he finna slaughter now@? Point it I like way u play GOW. I’ve seen ur skills on other game and Man U got the gift of I hadn’t been told. Keep uploading and I’ll keep watching. 👍🏾
You sir and GBG are my favorite players... You both got such a different play style but its so fun to watch.. GBG is more of like flashy moves and almost to the point of breaking the game and you who is more sophisticated, intricate moves to the point like ur watching a professional gamer
Been playing this game for the third time now. And its my first time playing on GMGOW. Still i don't know how to reach the same speed as you. Kudos for mastering this game combat mechanics
How i hate the dark elf leader encounter,not only you need to fight one but two at the same time,at least the Zeus armor can make quick work of them,anyway great gameplay man!
That last second dodge realm shift enchantment is key. Ive found people never use it to its full potential. Here you are using it like a boss You can straight F some people up. And bro, your parry skills are on point. Bravo That secondary shield slam is one of my favorite moves
Bro, I missed you see play God of War. keep upload more God of War, Ghost of Tsushima! 🥰 I had love to see Assassin’s creed Valhalla no damage battles on PS4/ PS5😍
good level! I also love this game and specially uploaded a save for the new game + god of war with 0 assortment of items! it was difficult but fun. on UA-cam I did not work out my fights .... there, with one poke out, I went out with the impossibility of blocking anything with a shield at all!
1:45 Honestly when I first played the game on this part I thought you were supposed to Smash the Ice with the Ogres. Do y'all think that would be cool? I mean that's exactly what Magni did.
Big facts: So smooth. You can either go fast af or take you time and both playstyle valid and useful in their own ways. IE fast hits then staggers for Valkyries etc.
So weird. I randomly started playing this game again, and you're randomly playing it again, too. Your last video of this game was two friggin years ago! Simulation glitch?

Didn't think I'd see GoW again on your channel... Bravo my friend.
The only game should not quit is this :)
We need more of GOW
Speaking of which, any word on GOW 5? It’s been radio silence besides that teaser in November.
@@jamesmaysflyingwashingmach7459 Just dont expect it in 2021, its more than likely going to be delayed to 2022...
Same. He still got it just as much as GBG. But he's retired for now. He'll get better.
People give me shit for saying this, but I think this is far and away the best melee combat system ever in a game. Once you master Kratos, the possibilities are staggering
Ghost of tsushima's is simple but definitely up there as well
They really did something different with the stance changes. The Nioh series did it first, but Sucker Punch basing the stances on the opponents weapon was a pretty genius move. I completely agree that it's up there among the best melee systems

@@kingofblackout Indeed
@@Gortanckla ghost of tsushimas combat is more satisfying kinda. Then again God of war is also pretty satisfying
I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching you play this game. The combat in this game is just so damn fluid and beautiful to watch, especially when played by a master
Rage to cancel recovery. What a sick idea. Also, how did you get the heavy counter on the projectile? Truly the god of war
Projectile counter isn’t purchased :)
@@SmvR good idea, I’m about to do that on my next playthrough, I always sidestep projectiles for realm shift anyway
this guy is master GOW player
The heavy shield slam is from pressing R2 after a parry.
I use rage to save my life and cancel it so I can continue my combos which is a pretty neat trick I learned from pro players.
Well its not enough for smvr to conquer God of war in ps4. Now it's ps5.
Heck, on the ps5 it's just even easier for him, because the framerate is more consistent.
Kratos: Boi?
Atreus: Yes Father?
Kratos: I was wrong the Playstation gamers are the causes of War.
Me: The Dual Shock of Chaos!
One of the legendary God of war player of all time
Agreed,there is also another i forgot the name
It’s CBG
*GAME* *BREAKER* *GOD* IS THE BEST GOW PLAYER OF ALL TIME
@@randomdude1469 yeah but smvr is more pleasing to the eye
@@randomdude1469 GBG is indeed amazing, but he even admits that he got a ton of his tech from SMVR 🤷🏿♂️
Your gameplay is inspiring me even beyond just playing the game, keep up your great work man 👍
Good to see you back on GOW
YESS!! Your back. & On GOW. Even though you've been mastering other games, still one of the best no damage, ultra instinct players on the scene. You give GBG a run for his combos. Thanks for the great content you provide.
this is proper game design, not like those looter rpgs that pretend they’re hack n slash.
ua-cam.com/video/CTMHH3lJFmQ/v-deo.html
This game isn't hack n slash
This game is neither looter nor an RPG.
@@davidwood9718 Yes it is. It's not like hack n slash is a bad thing.
This dude using magic I've never seen before in the game. I'll never get tired of watching these videos.

He's back to his roots. Your GoW videos are what made me a subscriber. Hell yeah!
Feels good to see your gow videos after a long time mate!
By far the best GoW player! Thanks for uploading some more content.
Road to GoW: Ragnarok with god level gameplay from lord SmvR baby!
Holy sheet you play this game very good,very Satisfying to watch. I Can't wait to see you play the new GOW game in the future.
Me either but if these idiots keep saying 2021 is too soon we wont get it until 2023
@@pac-vy1nj IKR? I hope We get to play this game in 2021 early...
Your combos are by far my favourites on UA-cam... So fancy!
This is amazing. I didn't see who is the uploader at first, just watched the moves and recognized it is greatness
Smooth & Satisfied
Cant wait for GoW 5!!
"Float like a Butterfly, Stink like a Bee" has a whole new definition now. Thanks to this video.
This puts a smile on my face..! What a thrill! Great video bro!
Thanks. 😄🙌🏻
Two minutes in and I am completely amazed, good lord.
Great job my guy! I just bought this game for PS5, it’s an amazing experience!
It truly is, enjoy it!
@@SmvR thank you! Btw, what 2021 games do you have in mind for the channel? No pressure
Dude!!!! You've gotten a lot faster. I swear you and GBG are the best GoW youtubers
I can only dream to play like this. Kudos man
game developers would be so proud if they could see how you play the game
Both SmvR and GBG are the best in their own way.
My most favorite game ever. One love!
You have some amazingly crispy movement, truly sick.
He‘s *back* ❤️
Been playing this game for the third time now. And its my first time playing on GMGOW. Still i don't know how to reach the same speed as you. Kudos for mastering this game combat mechanics
I didn't even know some of these moves are existed and I platinumed the game.
Cant wait to see you play the next one
Wow this guy is so skilled, I love your gameplay,I feel so relaxed
Woah wasn't expecting this
oooooooh the best of smvr returns... so damn good
WOW! You're so good at this.
You've made me want to play this game again
Return of the king
Amazing as always dude!! LOVE U FROM INDONESIA! ❤
Can't wait to see your gameplay of gow Ragnarok!
Same
I hope its covers finale winter and doesn't do a timeskip
So we can have a 3rd game. Or they can end the Norse Pantheon in this Game and move to another Pantheon[I think Barlog Said Egyot would be next]
@@d.a.f. yeah,egypt would be great
Old times: we play game
Now : we play movie
Bro, I miss your GOW videos so much!
Bro i can't wait to see you play the new god of war i hope you do a full walkthrough👌🏼
Honestly really great gameplay can't wait for more c:
It all started with this game, you're gonna make me cry man! 😂
sick gameplay , runic canceling was a nice addition too 😱😍
This game will never stop being amazing in my eyes! Especially when your so epic at it. My favorite game ever played.👍
what an excellent command you got in this game
The serpent is so cute Lmao😂😂 8:15
I can hardly wait to see how you conquer the next GoW!
How i hate the dark elf leader encounter,not only you need to fight one but two at the same time,at least the Zeus armor can make quick work of them,anyway great gameplay man!
Finnaly you playing God of War again
Kratos is still badass
old but gold 👍👍👍
That last second dodge realm shift enchantment is key. Ive found people never use it to its full potential. Here you are using it like a boss
You can straight F some people up.
And bro, your parry skills are on point. Bravo
That secondary shield slam is one of my favorite moves
Atreus: Ogre and Troll at the same time. Sure, that's fair...
Me: Against two gods? I do see it very fair actually.
What a coincidence i'm actually re playing gow too.. so excited for ragnarok!
Dude watching you play makes me want to buy this game lol
Looked like Kratos was just playing with them in this!
The combination of frame rate and skill created a mesmerizing watch
Back to the Norse roots.
😂😂😂😂 2:24 you didn't have to do em like that
Bro, I missed you see play God of War.
keep upload more God of War, Ghost of Tsushima! 🥰
I had love to see Assassin’s creed Valhalla no damage battles on PS4/ PS5😍
Man that frame rate alone is worth getting the ps5. Great combos bro 🔥
Appreciate that! You’re insane at this game :D
@@SmvR thanks man, keep up the great content!
You are the GOAT on GoW. Holy crap. How am I supposed to stream this after watching you play?? 😭😄
Nothing but pure unadulterated quality game play
Sorry I missed this 5 months ago, your combat is insane.
That dope-ass shit wuz hella good.
6:42-6:47 Damn, that ogre was on steroids. Did you see that damage done to the Troll?
You’re countering skills are insane!!
this is how a god should be like
Incredible gameplay! Would love to see you post some Demon’s Souls
AAHHHHHHHHH OOMMGGGH HE PLAYING GOD OF WAR AGAIN 😍😍😍😍😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Straight out awesome 👌
BEAUTIFUL
Beautiful🔥❄️
2:11 HAHAHAHAH dude I can't handle this 😂😂😂
Imagine Atreus learning and using Sparta Rage with his dad and the next God of War 🥲
That could replace his runic summons
cool Kratos feels like using Thanos' power
Amazing as always 👍👍
What runic attack is that on min 1:33😱😱sicckk!!!
Damn, I think I might have to start a new gmgow game
Did they patch out that really cool heimdall weapon glitch you posted videos on? I'd love to see more
I thought to myself "Hmm, why is this popping up? SmvR hasn't played GOW in ages" I'm glad you're back to GOW. I cannot wait for Ragnarok.
Kratos vs Thor is gonna be a helluva thing.
@@CognizantCheddar he’s deffo dying.
@@FBClipsz Not w/o killing Thor first.
Ng+ tyr armor has better stats than the valkyrie set nice choice
good level! I also love this game and specially uploaded a save for the new game + god of war with 0 assortment of items! it was difficult but fun. on UA-cam I did not work out my fights .... there, with one poke out, I went out with the impossibility of blocking anything with a shield at all!
Imagine seeing Kratos use the Realm Shift in real time.. now that, I’d like to see
1:45 Honestly when I first played the game on this part I thought you were supposed to Smash the Ice with the Ogres. Do y'all think that would be cool? I mean that's exactly what Magni did.
God of War playing God of War.. noice
1:02 outstanding 😍
It's 2021 and there's still no games that have better combat than GOW.
Bug facts
Big facts: So smooth. You can either go fast af or take you time and both playstyle valid and useful in their own ways. IE fast hits then staggers for Valkyries etc.
I like the combat so much, i have 620 hours of playtime. It‘s really good.
The older GOW games have an amazing Combat and Doom Eternal and Hades has basically better combat than GOW in my opinion.
Can't wait to see you play Ragnarok buddy...
Since I got platinum I really didn't touch this game anymore. Looking at this I might pick it up again. Fantastic game
So weird. I randomly started playing this game again, and you're randomly playing it again, too. Your last video of this game was two friggin years ago!
Simulation glitch?
Still waiting for kratos's weapon to break after performing those move continously and vigorously
We want a remake to all boss fight
COMING AT YA BABY! 0:29
Man for how weird an bulking armor looks on kratos the tyr armor is so good for gmgow+ difficulty
