Don't mean to burst your bubble, but as far as I know, they only had beta weekends planned up to August. I hope there's a September beta weekend, but lookup "Beta Roadmap and Upcoming Weekend Dates Announced"
Can you explain what he hit them with there? I watched it back like 5 times but just don’t understand the game enough I suppose. Was it related to counter being activated and that circle being out? Thanks!
@@AAZFortnite Clairen (the swordie) got a new move in this game with it's neutral B (special), in which she can charge her lightsaber into a powerful attack with great reach (the more she charges it, the longer the range is and the more knockback it does), she CAN'T aim it on the ground, but she can in the air, so in this clip you can already see her fishing for it moments earlier, so she ends up hitting him with a mid charged b in the air a moment before touching the ground so she's able to aim it down, it ends up getting through the platform as you see and hits with the tipper, which ultimately makes it super satisfying
Game looks a lot slower. Maybe the addition of ledges slows down the ply, maybe it’s just the moves themselves. It will be interesting to see how the game turns out. Looks like the more aggressive play will slow down.
Yeah... and now its just Smash with the serials filed off. We got shields, ledge climbs and throws. I liked that the original Rivals of Aether had its own identity and with the Parry mechanic you couldn't just turtle with shield like in Smash. I am happy people are hyped but I am really disappointed that they moved away from their identity into a Smash clone that hopefully is better balanced.
How good it is that only a small group can play and practice and go to tournaments for when the normal public plays it can't be one of the best, it's stupid but great I would have liked to have been able to play even if it's the beta but I hope it doesn't happen like rushdown
I'm very excited, however, i gotta say I'm not really feeling the flowy animation style, none of the hits feel super powerful cuz it's all so glidey and smooth, even with the hit freezing and extra flashes and effects going on. It's also kinda difficult to tell like where the actual hitboxes are on moves based on like their silhouettes which is the Hallmark of good fighting game animation in my opinion.
@@Calebanton that's a very funny choice if that's true, I still stand by what I said for the most part, I think the moves are not super clear sometimes. Maybe playing it myself it'll be clearer, what's going on mentally linking moves to inputs. But I think it's more visually confusing both than smash and rivals 1
@@samk2407 Interesting. I never really felt that way while playing the beta. You can sign up for the september beta. This time around, they’re accepting more people outside of the kick starter on steam via a lottery type system
Wouldn't it suck if it played the same way that the original does? What would be the point of making a second game? The first will always be around. That's kinda what I love about Smash. Each one has its own identity.
@@curse5697I haven't played so I can't say for sure but I'm not fully sold on shields and ledges. Not having those made it R1 unique and fast paced. Adding those mechanics seems like they are trying too hard to imitate melee.
This game is so fun. Can't wait for the full release
Yeah I want steam workshop support of it so we can make 3d fighters!
Is there any release date?
@@sulfonicpearJust announced. It's near the end of October.
@@RougeMephilesClone Nice!! Thank you!
This... is the future of the Platform Fighter genre
That ZeeBee Marlon match up was absolutely nuts
So many great moments, holy cow. And I see your L-cuts to make the commentary fluid, editor, and I appreciate you.
Cake losing in Grands 3-0 is absolutely bonkers GGs Marlon
Notice the lack of water characters?
And in riptide too! Ironic.
3:46 double grab, double clap
I expected some Orcane gameplay based on the thumbnail 😢
Soulrifle vs boiko was the greatest set of rivals 2 I’ve ever seen
LOVE THIS GAME RELEASE IT ALREADY AHHHHHHHHHHH
35:20 crazy pressure
16:46 Omar definitely had murderous intent, I would’ve done the wrong option and die for that😭
It would look so good cell shaded! Wonder how hard it'd be to mod in a shader
Really excited for this game. Just did the pledge so at least I get to play the beta this month.

@@PatOnTheBack321there is a September beta already announced sept 27-29
@@xguitarist_ Hell yeah! Thanks for the info. I've been checking for updates pretty frequently, but I must have missed that one.
17:58 a good Loxodont buff would be that magma burns the opponents just like Zetter's
not necessarily buffing the knockback tho
11:01 crazy angle

Man this game is so cool, can’t wait for the next beta
Ganon? Is that you?
Lox and Kragg have me so hyped for this game.
I need this game to come out AHHHH
Maybe be the best commentators I’ve heard.
Wrastor looks absolutely broken, nerf loxodont
31:22 INSANE COMBO WTH
the motion blur on this video is brutal ;O;
comentators did realy good i like these guys
29:24 dope
Bolko vs zetter Cake was the coolest match this side of the highlights! Both of em' looked so happy w/ that fistbump. nerf wrastor xd
Still, congrats to marlon! So many brought their best to this tournament its great to see

Shielding doesn’t allow you to turtle lol
Oo is this just gonna be a mainstay at smash tournaments? Exciting 🎉🎉🎉
I want to pllay so bad 😭😭
Orcane is on the thumbnail, but not in the video.
15:10 this whole sequence holy
this is exactly how plat fighters should play.
When did kusi change his tag?
He changed it because kusi is a swear in French so his name kept getting censored in twitch chat and it was winding him up LOL

@@okene think he's just from the US. iirc he didn't even know why it was getting censored at first LOL
So much coverage and content out but the game itself isnt. I think it might effect impact on release. Tough decision tho.

Wrong game bro 😭 (buff him n baiken tho)
As much as I've shown my dislike for this sequel cause it's very very different from R1, top level gameplay is still hype!!
what do you not like about the game?

Please make proper highlight reels, it's impossible to share this with others
how is it impossible
