Sorry the news is a couple hours late yall, had to sleep after putting up the Bison video lol. That said, hey, 2XKO news! We don't exactly get a lot of that around these parts too often so its welcome when we get it. That playable beta they talked about a long time ago? Well its finally actually around the corner in August. We got gameplay changes, talk of a new character, so dig in and have a watch to find out more!
I love that they added the autos as a groove, for experienced players and elitists, it requires you to give something up for easier execution, and for new players it takes those groove mechanics off of their plate while theyre learning
Putting the Easy Mode/Autocombo Mode on a Fuse is smart. Pick it to ease your execution at the cost of the other Fuses' effects; fair trade. I suspect most newbies will graduate from it quickly given the lack of command inputs, and most FG veterans won't ever pick it unless they're playing with a newbie partner.
I'm hoping that Vi shows up to the game eventually. I'm not sure if this has its shoto character already, but I can definitely see her being one. Plus Jinx and Vi should be the Kitana and Mileena of the game.
Considering Arcane I would be extremely surprised if they skipped her. Arcane is basically the only reason I'm keeping my eyes on this haha. I wasn't very impressed when they first showed the game and the characters available were generic axe-guy and generic anime lady with a "sexy" Halloween fox costume.
thats cause i panick made this video after i woke up from my nap making the bison vid and saw this was already live for hours and forgot to add the music
I've played fighting games throughout my life, the vast majority of Mortal Kombat games, a little bit of Killer Instinct, and mostly the anime 2D & 3D "arena" fighters like Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm games, and the PS2 & PSP Naruto games, I've played Injustice 1 & 2 as well. But, I've never played a Guilty Gear game, Melty Blood, Dragon Ball Fighterz, or things like that, nonetheless, I am interested in 2XKO (Project L) 🤙🏾💯.
I know Riot is huge so they want to do full releases confirmed on certain dates but an early access wouldn’t hurt this game if they can handle the masses
1/ Let us do 236+S1/S2 to do Super. Down+Down sucks. 2/ Release the game on Steam. 3/ Set PlayStation icons Prompt on PC when playing with our Dualsense Edge.
i hope this made for FGC do not mean 60 fps lock or similar "we still live in in 2k age" because this bs is killing fighting games for a lot of peoples i know
Also big ups to Justin Wong for the b-roll footage in the vid. Justin is actually just a really nice guy, I am sort of "apart" from the goings ons in the FGC in a lot of ways cause of my relative isolation where I live, and even though I only get to show up to events rarely Justin has always been a very welcoming and helpful person and I just wanna spread some love there because I don't feel that kinda stuff gets out enough.

Imagine the irony of having Annie in this game. In League proper she’s one of the easiest characters to pick up, but in fighting games, puppet characters tend to be hard as nails to learn.
@@tomix4694 ok udyr sounds like fun shit in a fighting game. Never liked to play the champion outside of being funny to make a combo and send "uga" to the dead guy, but a stance guy who alternate between modes in a tag team game? hell yeah!
annie being popular as she is will prob be a different kind of char, or an "easy puppet" like chang in CvS 2 where you really dont gotta think about it
I think its either Jinx, Akali, or Vi. Jinx or Vi cus Arcane, Akali because apparently one of the champion designers is a big fan of Akali and I think there was an Akali statue on her desk.
I'm 100% with you on gigantic combos. I'd rather have more unique interactions in fights than one giant combo that's long enough to go get food and come back during and some mega combo is the largest thing keeping new players away from a game.
The new champion name's first letters is between "Ah" ~ "C". In the character select screen there was a blank spot between Ahri and Darius, and it was alphabetically ordered.
@@shreeanshmahapatra2313oooh that’s a good one, but i feel like ekko and yasuo kinda fill the akali playstyle already, feel like it has to be someone with a style thats nit in the game yet. Just excited for whoever it is
@@yami-kay9099 There's an ammo mechanic on my main in Sf6, more or less. Lily. I hate it. Its an extra consideration that adds a layer of gameplay that doesn't add to the experience enough to justify its time and opportunity cost.
@Oscar97o yup, as I said some evidence. Though one person pointed out the seeming empty spot is alphabetically between Ahri and Darius. So, unlikely to be either.
4:07 "You don't want one of you most popular characters gated behind a complex mechanic..." Like what Capcom did with *Chun-Li* in SF6! The numbers bear this out: from Rookie to Master she drops from 9th to 15th... while *Cammy* drops from 2nd to 4th.
I’m surprised they haven’t made Jinx playable yet for their offline tests knowing that Ekko, Darius, Ahri, Yasuo, and Illaoi are in the current roster.
So if someone who plays Juri I kind of like having a resource to take care of because it usually means that the options with them are allowed to be stronger. But that's fair if you don't like them. But I 100% agree about the combo length thing, and it's funny that you bring up super broly as the example because he's my go-to example of "this combos are too long" and I don't feel like sitting through them. just take the damage you're going to do and be done with it... Even 15 to 20 seconds is kind of a long time to be essentially in a one player mode
ooh the orb comes back around I'm usually unlucky when it comes to getting in these but it'll be fun to see how people feel about it They have definitely been cooking with this game
Is there a chance that these characters will have their own music themes or they’ll focus more on stage soundtracks? I hope they’ll put the music soundtracks from the Arcane show.
I guess we don't know yet. I sincerely hope there's character themes. Character specific themes live throughout the ages. Generic music gets forgotten.
There are themes for the three stages they've shown so far, you can listen to them on their youtube channel. Being a tag fighter, I'm sure there will only be stage themes instead of character themes.
What I am affraid off is that Riot Will forcé us to install Vanguard, I don´t like that antivirus and thats the reason I unstalled LoL, cause even when I only played TFT they forced us to install that
The animation and movements look so fluid! It seems like this is going to have smooth gameplay which is awesome. So many games similar to this art style feel stiff and jerky ***cough cough ATLUS FIGHTERS cough cough***. I hope this is a winner and break from the norm.
my feedback would be they should be careful with noob stomping characters or cheap characters/mixups, because this game is going to attract lots of new players and lots of players coming from league, you dont want them to quit because they get stomped by some character theyll grow to hate, and itll be worse if those characters overlap with league characters that are also hated in that game, since league players will carry the frustration and wont bother with giving this game a fair try since its "the same bullshit as in league"
They have modern control too... This is so good because i can trick my girlfriend to play 2XKO like i did on SF6 now she is a Master Modern Juri niceee
I refuse to call it '2xko' due to the name being stupid. I will continue to use the placeholder until I either finally stop getting videos for it in my feed or riot makes a good decision for once in their damn lives (lol) and comes up with a less stupid name.
I wish they left arhi as she was. That change was to make the character easier. Leave a few complicated characters. I was looking forward to her. Now i guess im looking towards Illaoi.
No comprendo mucho por que la gente se sorprende de que se revele un supuesto "nuevo campeon", o que los creadores de contenido exageren con este tema. La verdad es que ya existe una lista fija de cuantos campeones tendra el juego, y cuales seran.
@rooflemonger yes BUT i don't think she was available for the public Not many characters draw as much attention as she does If they add a new unannounced i would bet a dollar on lee sin

I'm ready to blame someone else for my loss beside the opponent.
Really getting into the League player spirit
🙏🙏
The true embrace of the league player mindset
Of course, it's your god-given right to let your teammate know that he was not locked in
It's the chair
I love that they added the autos as a groove, for experienced players and elitists, it requires you to give something up for easier execution, and for new players it takes those groove mechanics off of their plate while theyre learning

I'm hoping that Vi shows up to the game eventually. I'm not sure if this has its shoto character already, but I can definitely see her being one. Plus Jinx and Vi should be the Kitana and Mileena of the game.
Vi would basically be Slayer, imo. I'm imaging Vault Breaker being her version of Mappa Hunch
Considering Arcane I would be extremely surprised if they skipped her. Arcane is basically the only reason I'm keeping my eyes on this haha. I wasn't very impressed when they first showed the game and the characters available were generic axe-guy and generic anime lady with a "sexy" Halloween fox costume.
There was a quick glimpse of Katarina during a loading sequence so my money is on her for the new character!
There's something disturbing watching a rooflemonger video without the classic FGC tracks or any music but I'm all for it 😂😂
thats cause i panick made this video after i woke up from my nap making the bison vid and saw this was already live for hours and forgot to add the music
I hope some of the Level 3 hypers have more hit impact especially Ahris level 3
I've played fighting games throughout my life, the vast majority of Mortal Kombat games, a little bit of Killer Instinct, and mostly the anime 2D & 3D "arena" fighters like Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm games, and the PS2 & PSP Naruto games, I've played Injustice 1 & 2 as well.

Been looking forward to this game!
Dear Riot,
Please add Elise to 2XKO as a stance character with spider rushdown and spell zoning.
That would be pretty sweet.
When's Jinx? I'm ready to zone! 😤
I know Riot is huge so they want to do full releases confirmed on certain dates but an early access wouldn’t hurt this game if they can handle the masses
Registered 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
1/ Let us do 236+S1/S2 to do Super. Down+Down sucks.
2/ Release the game on Steam.
3/ Set PlayStation icons Prompt on PC when playing with our Dualsense Edge.
I think that statue is Lee Sin. They do look similar
I wasn't making a joke, its very literally the MK1 liu kang collectors edition statue.
I'm preeeeety sure the character will be someone from Arcane. Probably Jinx or Vi.
it's so funny you keep referring to them as grooves... i keep thinking of them as isms despite me having played for more CvS 2 than alpha 3
I GOT THE EMAIL!
New character might just be Jinx? Wasn't she shown in multiple videos already?
I choose to think new means actually new. Jinx has been known of for about 2 years now even she wasnt in the playable builds
AAAAAHHH THERE ARE TOO MANY FIGHTING GAMES I CANT PLAY THEM ALL
They have not revealed how monetization will work?
game is confirmed to be F2P. So expect the usual riot style f2p monetization
there's no way they don't put Sett in this game...right?? That's my main in league and he is literally a pit fighter, like he's PERFECT for it.
I believe the new characters would be sett lu kang is dragon guy sett is dragon guy if it's sett I'll do a backwards front flip
My only complaint is that combo routes generally look boring and there doesn't seem to be much room for "combo movie" stuff
Pulse fuse is sounding more like ki combo assist than dbfz auto combos and i hope so.
I really hope it is the case
no oceania test? :C
im assuming(hoping) there will be a emea test somewhere further along the line
i hope this made for FGC do not mean 60 fps lock or similar "we still live in in 2k age" because this bs is killing fighting games for a lot of peoples i know
Oh, it'll be lee sin then. Since liu keng isn't a real option xD
new character is either gonna be lee sin or riven i bet.
Please do not add guest characters so early into the game. we have such a cool roster to pull from, maybe a year or 2 after the games out...
Liu lang lee sin same difference
I would be shocked if the new character isn't Jinx
Would be a bit weird since they showed her early gameplay a long time ago.
*playable alpha
Still not calling it 2XKO😅
I'm guessing that new character is maybe jinx? Lol im hopeful
I hope its a valorant character.
Combo Assist yay -__- smh
No europe.......... dissapointing.
hopefully one later down the road
@@rooflemonger i just created an USA account :P

I'd rather have someone like Udyr or Lee Sin, cause you know... They kinda fit. They could even make Udyr a grappler
Just add azir.
@@tomix4694 ok udyr sounds like fun shit in a fighting game. Never liked to play the champion outside of being funny to make a combo and send "uga" to the dead guy, but a stance guy who alternate between modes in a tag team game? hell yeah!

annie being popular as she is will prob be a different kind of char, or an "easy puppet" like chang in CvS 2 where you really dont gotta think about it
Finally they do the auto combo thing better then most. It exists, but you give up your grove. SO you can learn but eventually move off the autocombos
That is nice.
Can't wait for my favourite champion: Liu Kang to drop 🔥🔥🔥
S Broly is my bet.
Quite sure it's Lee Sin, since he's closest Liu Kang kind of character in LoL
Lukang is Lee Sin. I'm calling it now
I think its either Jinx, Akali, or Vi. Jinx or Vi cus Arcane, Akali because apparently one of the champion designers is a big fan of Akali and I think there was an Akali statue on her desk.
@@punkypony5165I think Jinx and Vi will be properly revealed around the premier of season 2.
Who'd be Mileena? SKARLET would 100% be Vladimir
statue thing is just a joke, i wouldnt put much stock in it lol

I don't like at ALL that they removed the ammo mechanic from Ahri. This is kind of upsetting.
No one cares at ALL about this opinion. Don’t play it then and go cry to yo momma about it!
I mean I'm very glad there's no ammo mechanic but no need to be a dick to people who wanted it.

Yeah I'm still waiting for Jinx myself, she's always been my fav.

I'm gonna need as many people voicing for Mordekaiser as possible. Help this Fighting Games lover dreams come true!
My only feedback will be to add Poppy.
I want to play that Fatal Fury demo you keep getting your hands on 😔
well i didn't "keep" getting hands on it it, I had about 2 hours and thats it. It will be playable at Evo though!
Rofflemonger dropping the news! Keep up the good work!

I'm glad I watched this because my survey ended up getting filtered. And I didn't read the message closely, I just saw it saying I was in the pool.
With Arcane having been announced for it's next upcoming season I could reasonably see Vi, or Warwick be the next character
Thanks for covering 2XKO. I'm looking forward to getting to try out Nekhali.
Is there a chance that these characters will have their own music themes or they’ll focus more on stage soundtracks?
I hope they’ll put the music soundtracks from the Arcane show.
I guess we don't know yet. I sincerely hope there's character themes. Character specific themes live throughout the ages. Generic music gets forgotten.

Champions in lol already have their musical theme, the only ones that don't are old af characters wo didn't get reworked

F tier: all other fighting games
Hmm, I wonder if ya saw a lee sin statue
Imagine Happy Chaos without an ammo mechanic
Those characters look like from soul calibur
:D
I'm just hoping I can play at evo 🙏
That name is still just horrendous
Come on, its obvious that its jinx
jinx is already revealed, theres been tons of footage of her already. They did stress new character.
@rooflemonger yes BUT i don't think she was available for the public
Not many characters draw as much attention as she does
