Coming back to this run for 20th time, here's hope we get something similar to double discharge in MH6, I'm a sucker for elemental discharges and ZSD completely threw it out of the window
@@caolanberg3837 Thankfully, ZSD is something we can now choose to do, not unlike the difference between AED and SAED for CB, and we get a new followup to Elemental Discharges! Makes you wonder why ZSD wasn't optional before.
Hunters Domain Thanks! I worked so hard to get a time like this with hammer but it was not meant to be sadly, sure enough one of my first attempts with SA gets it 😂
Caolan Berg hammer i think can only stand a chance if it’s a small zinogre, otherwise can’t hit his head half the time. always refreshing seeing you make use of the sa though so i don’t mind 😎👍
Hunters Domain Oh that makes sense, I was struggling way too much to hit his head with the lvl 3 charge. I think I’m the only person who still plays Switch Axe in this game 🤣🤣
Zero V Thanks, I’m not the best but I try! Sometimes I do get lucky and runs work out like this one though 😊. I wish more people played this game so it was easier to find runs. I legit look up SA runs and all I see are mine 😔 lol
Yesss!! No one uses it in this game I need some company lol! Just started using valor and it feels strong as hell. Now to find more good matchups for it 😊
@@caolanberg3837 I don’t blame them for not using it tbh! It’s clunky and it’s not as fluent as it is in Iceborne.... and yet I still use the damn thing lmao!
@@Sunkhrist I actually prefer the slow clunky weapons. I know when to go for hits and when to back off. When I play the smoother faster ones I get too agressive and get hit too much 😂
I've been trying Striker SA since that seems to be the meta pick, but I might have to try this too. I'm usually a GS main but I wanted to try something new.
Oh my goodness... What a wonderful show. I have an annoying time with good ol’ Zinny. Wouldn’t the Elderfrost SA do better? Zin’s weakness is Ice and the Elder has higher raw too
Wyatt Somers Elderfrost is stronger if you’re running absolute readiness (striker/alchemy) but it has bad sharpness so it won’t work for valor style/demon riot gimmick
Wyatt Somers Yeah that can work, I think Crystalbeard SA is better for bludgeoner. You lose the ice but you gain an extra skill from not having to invest in sharpness or razor sharp. I know Deaga used it in some of his runs a while back
Caolan Berg Yeah I saw that earlier this week. It impresses me. I’ve done a few attempts but I do not have the proper gear to do actual speedruns XD I used to main the IG but now I’ve started to see the divine rite of SA lol.
Wyatt Somers It’s pretty great against some monsters like this one where you can spam the explosions, but I tried some deviants with it and it didn’t go well at all when you mess up and they one shot you 😂. Charm farming sucks big time, be prepared to farm the Brachy quest 100+ times. That’s all you can do really 😖
Thanks! Sorry for the late response. Valor SA can definitely compete with LS on the early G rank stuff, it’s sooo good vs anything that trips easily. Sadly it kinda falls off at endgame, I don’t think I’ve even seen a good valor EX run with demon riot
Haha thanks. I wish I didn’t hit his tail so much tho, tail is less damage than back legs and breaking it wasn’t part of the plan. Actually have a better set now with crit eye+3 so maybe one day I’ll try this again
I think you can do the regular discharge whenever with just X+A but to do the double explosion discharge you have to start with a double sword slash in valor mode. I haven’t played this in forever though can’t quite remember
strife 12 Only tried it a little. It’s ok with valor or adept style I think but I don’t think it’s optimal against anything. It’s fun though if you don’t mind killing things a bit slower
Get to valor mode and do a double slash and then elemental discharge. To do a double slash you either have to dodge then press A, or valor sheathe and press A. Sorry for the late response
Get into valor mode, and you have to start the combo with a dash or a valor sheathe. It can’t be started from idle. Just A then X+A after starting with one of those
It's not broken. If you miss most of these attacks, you'll have to wait quite a long time and build up your Valor meter again. Also he's using the Final Boss' weapon. If this is Thunderlord Zinogre, he'll be more aggressive.
That last second save of Demon Riot. Nice.
Had to re-watch, holy shit didn’t realize it was that close. Haha damn! 😁
Coming back to this run for 20th time, here's hope we get something similar to double discharge in MH6, I'm a sucker for elemental discharges and ZSD completely threw it out of the window
I dunno if we will, next game being a non portable entry we might have to wait another game. Switch Axe was still pretty fun in Rise though!

this is so clutch. Valor Swaxe is dope.
Thanks! This matchup is so fun, something everyone should definitely try 😊
Awesome hunting Caolan and very cool finish with the SA explosion! :)

@@caolanberg3837 Don't worry i just picked SA and i was watching your runs to improve, at least we're two now! Love the gameplay

Man, this run was sexy as hell to watch! Maybe I oughta pick up SA next?
Yesss!! No one uses it in this game I need some company lol! Just started using valor and it feels strong as hell. Now to find more good matchups for it 😊
@@caolanberg3837 Well first I gotta complete my SnS quest, so it'll be a while 😝
Lumini Haha you’re nuts! I can’t even bring myself to fully upgrade my silversol armor 😂

Beautiful hunt!
Nice finish with the ZSD right in his face

I loved your run. a question. Do you recommend that specific set to face the most difficult monsters in the game?
that last blow to the face
NessT Thank God, right as demon riot went away 😁
Oh my goodness... What a wonderful show. I have an annoying time with good ol’ Zinny. Wouldn’t the Elderfrost SA do better? Zin’s weakness is Ice and the Elder has higher raw too
Wyatt Somers Elderfrost is stronger if you’re running absolute readiness (striker/alchemy) but it has bad sharpness so it won’t work for valor style/demon riot gimmick
Caolan Berg Ahh makes sense, so then try bludgeoner skill to add more damage when reaching green sharpness
Wyatt Somers Yeah that can work, I think Crystalbeard SA is better for bludgeoner. You lose the ice but you gain an extra skill from not having to invest in sharpness or razor sharp. I know Deaga used it in some of his runs a while back
Caolan Berg Yeah I saw that earlier this week. It impresses me. I’ve done a few attempts but I do not have the proper gear to do actual speedruns XD

I'm trying to put together a Double Discharge focused build. Do crit skills actually affect the explosions?
Damn, Valor SA looks kinda OP. Not as OP as LS or HBG ofc, but still, Demon Riot is insane. Anyway, brilliant run, that finish was orgasmic. lol
Thanks! Sorry for the late response. Valor SA can definitely compete with LS on the early G rank stuff, it’s sooo good vs anything that trips easily. Sadly it kinda falls off at endgame, I don’t think I’ve even seen a good valor EX run with demon riot
How do you get that dodge you have? I’m new to mhgu and I’ve seen it on a few weapons
Valor steps?

SUPER CLOSE TO WR!!
Actually for once lmao! One day your damn WR statement will actually be true 😂😂
Here after wild’s switch axe trailer
Dude….you fucking massacred him. I mean you didn’t even give him a chance to retaliate.
I feel bad for the poor guy
Haha thanks. I wish I didn’t hit his tail so much tho, tail is less damage than back legs and breaking it wasn’t part of the plan. Actually have a better set now with crit eye+3 so maybe one day I’ll try this again
@@caolanberg3837 rip zinogre, he enjoyed his life while he lived
How do you do the explosion without the full windup??
I think you can do the regular discharge whenever with just X+A but to do the double explosion discharge you have to start with a double sword slash in valor mode. I haven’t played this in forever though can’t quite remember
@@caolanberg3837 thank you
What decos was he running?
hy,
what is the set you have: armor and weapon. plz ;)🙏
I show it right after the fight at 3:50 ☺️
Very good very good
RokuMH Thank you legend 😊
I've never played mhgu what the hell happened i want to play it
Thank you!!!! This is goodd
Make another valor sa run please!
strife 12 Soon hopefully! Runs don’t usually come this easy for me, only tried him for an hour 😂😂😁
@@caolanberg3837 wow, that's great, btw, have you ever tried the tempest axe hunter art? Is it good?
strife 12 Only tried it a little. It’s ok with valor or adept style I think but I don’t think it’s optimal against anything. It’s fun though if you don’t mind killing things a bit slower
Is playing it possible without using second screen?
2nd screen? I play on the Switch. Are you on 3ds or pc?
how can I make my first attack as sword? I saw u pull up a sword in your first attack
Hold R (run button) and press X + A
@@caolanberg3837 thanks.
hokage chinito no problem 😊
Haz hecho alguna Licencia EX con SA??
No soy bueno en EX. 15-20 minutos generalmente 😢. Necesito practicar mas
Tienen mucha vida 😅
how can I do 2 explosions?
Get to valor mode and do a double slash and then elemental discharge. To do a double slash you either have to dodge then press A, or valor sheathe and press A. Sorry for the late response
@@caolanberg3837 thanks
how the fuck do you do that double slash into discharge combo. I can't figure it out.
Get into valor mode, and you have to start the combo with a dash or a valor sheathe. It can’t be started from idle. Just A then X+A after starting with one of those

"how broken do you want your game?"
"yes."
