Now that it's over, I can rank the top 8 strongest fighters: 8: Oran. Decent energy wielder, but Viridia beat him without much trouble. 7: Rosa. I admit Rosa was a good redemption arc for Sora, but I can't place her any higher than this. 6: Crimson. Totally deserved to be in this with his mobility and super strength, helped quite a bit in the 2v1. 5: Lavender. Pretty generic energy wielder, still lost to Static 4: Static. He totally deserved to win this, quite a bit above everyone else with his lightning ability. 3: Sear. Overwhelming theatrics and shouting aside, Sear has a higher power level than the other energy wielders. 2: Viridia. She's quite a bit above #3, with energy and timestop. She deserved her finals appearance. 1: Flash. Having super speed, energy wielding AND energy redirection (which he didn't even need to beat Viridia) puts him head and shoulders above everyone else.
@@saminates2002 Thanks. About my comment before, I never specifically intended for a 2v2, I just wanted to finish the arc with Flash, Sear, and Crimson.
galaxystudios 370 believe it or not.. Not finishing the arc gave me an idea for something else The Ultimate Pivot Tournament Epilogue.. but it’s not going to be your normal everyday epilogue. I’m not animating this anytime soon but let’s just say it’ll come down to a... 6v1 type situation
I honestly don't know how you do it, you're by FAR the best animator I've ever seen, and I hope you continue using the gift God has given you. Your animations are truly AMAZING!
i wasnt planning to watch this again today, yet even remember this video existed. watching this brings me nostalgia man.. great animation still to this day. (no wonder little me loved this)
Gezi5 Don’t worry man, it’s all good. I did say special thanks to Jesus at the very end of my video (*queue 7:46*) So, he wasn’t forcing anything down.
Ikr. So far. I watched other Animators and you might be one of em. Sadly, you're not first... But hey! Atleast you're not last! Here's my top 3 animators: Son Goku Anims Darkboy Animations SamAnimations! Edit: There were other animators in Son Goku's animated Final Move collab. So I might list those animators in the next edit.
YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!! This has just made my entire month better. Thank you so much for making this By the way did you make the electricity effects yourself? It looks incredible!
SamAnimations! Looks like I’ll have to start looking for them. I kinda want to make a fire vs lightening fight but I don’t have any good lightening stks
Holy shit dude, I've just recently got back into animating my pivot tournament so I went to look up some pivot tournaments for quick inspiration, and I'm glad I found yours. Definitely some of the best quality tournaments I've seen done on pivot.
Yea when I say the second tournament the characters and the battles where better and longer, i also feel like the final battle ended way to quickly, but I always love these kinds of animation so keep up the good work!
UPT2 Fights 20s 37s 26s 33s (29s w/o dialogue) 52s (46s without dialogue) 48s (45s w/o dialogue) 88s (1:28s) 138s (2:18s (Extra final fight)) UPT3 fights 27s 27s 21s (w/o dialogue) 29s 28s 32s 110s (1:50s) So yeah, the 2nd tournament is longer than the third. But personally I wanted this one to be shorter. I thought it was too long 😂😂 But clearly people liked the length
Bro, i absolutely LOVE your work. I want to do an Tournament like you. It will be not the same, but after so much long time of doing pivot animations, (wich where bad) i want to try doing something AWESOME. Something, that will make me proud of yourself. Keep up your work!
I rewatched that masterpiece again, but when i watched this scene: 7:03 So when rosa avoids the lightnings, so i think you should have added some flashy frames on the backround so it will look like a lightning, but yea. Really good animation
it seemed that most of the Stick figures flew like how static did falcon drop that was harder than Rosa's one when they even came the atmosphere of the earth but good thing static had enough energy to beat Rosa
Raph the muscle Tmnt Roblox Minecraft and more If I ever half ass my content you should not be running this channel anymore 😂😂😂 I want to make sure that what you’re all watching is quality stuff!
This is an incredible animation. Great job dude!! Some landings and run cycles could’ve been a little better but those are just little details :) I really like this animation man. So awesome!
I think i will go crazy for a minute............THIS ONE OF THE BEST PIVOT STICKMAN TOURNAMENT SERIES ! (btw me too i did a Stickman Tournament Series That Im Finishing xd) (and after im going to finish my Pivot Stickman Tournament too.)
The animation itself is just amazing, very smooth and you can tell what's happening there, but I have a feeling there's too much going on in firts fights. I feel like action and power level should slowly rise (well maybe not slowly but u know what i mean), so it's not too OP in the very beginning. I guess that's because of a lot of effects, which can be very useful in making animation interesting, but not if it's overused. And also characters seem to have too many abilities considering their power name. Love explosions and show of motion tho. You're great at what you're doing, keep it up! :D
Lunka I get what you’re saying! What I wanted to do here is utilize each and everyone’s power to the fullest extent within the time limit I had in each fight. So I would go all out from the start and just increase the bar higher. I just got some work to do that’s all
@@devandecker803 You know what I actually had a character like that in mind. It's not exactly like that but he has the ability to copy up to three abilities. It's not for a new tournament but it's going to wrap up the Ultimate Pivot Tournament Trilogy with an Epilogue
@@saminates2002 The characters who can copy abilities are good, but this guy can detach his limbs and his limbs can still move without the main body, his only weak spot is his head, which he keeps guarded, could you try that bro?
Devan Decker I’m not going to out right say yes, but I’ll probably do a test animation in the future to see how it’s like animating a character like that.
I've been trying to figure it out. In terms of effects how do you do the background thing where you have a bunch of lines to make it look like there's really fast movement?
3:15 - 3:17 for example? If that’s what you mean, I simply make 3 line sticks Short Medium Long I placed them all around the background and move it in the direction I want the characters to run/fly in Typically it’s a 5 frame loop
@@saminates2002 You make three lines of different lengths, copy them and place them iver the background and move them in the same direction as the character. For example you'd move them to the right if you wanted the character to move to the right? As each frame goes would you add more lines or keep the same number throughout?
Could you upload some of your animations(like your ultimate pivot tournaments and your battle in the forest) in the pivot format? I (and probably many others) would love to learn from you by looking at your amazing animations frame by frame.
Well i thought Rosa gonna win because he got the speed i say that because she Can fly And she good at adapting enemy attack well great animation thought
Currently, I have no plans to work on the Ultimate Pivot Tournament 4 but if I do plan to start on it, my idea would be for the two finalists of each tournament to fight one extremely powerful opponent. And that would conclude the series and probably be my last big Pivot Animation
@@saminates2002 OK, I really love your work. I hope you'll upload more animations. So your tournaments was my favorite part on your channel so i was just asking. Thanks for your comment :D
@@Violeto250 I have something planned! If you check the very first animation I posted on my channel, I'm working on that from the ground up, adding in a whole story and everything! I hope to finish it by next month :)
Excellent. The ONLY thing that was wrong with this was the effects. Not like the powering up us just that rosa flight looked more like floating. But other than that this is one of the best stick fights I ever seen in my life.
