God I miss Elsword from back then. I've played a lot of games and been apart of a lot of communities,but I'll never forget the Elsword community from when Elsword was still a young game and people were just coming up with combos for the first time and getting used to spring stepping and such. Legit the most fun I've ever had in my 22 years of life.
No requirements per se, but the more attack speed the player has, the easier the timing becomes for ALL seen in this video. "Attack Speed" is actually a "how fast things happen to your character" attribute, reflecting on just about everything that happens to him/her. That's why with Airelinna some people can escape even enemy skill freezes!
Marvelous! Nice guide you got there, also compliments to the clear inputs like ''holding'' a button. And I must say absolutely genius of using Stepmania for the inputs! Thanks a lot for uploading this!
If I'm doing normal steps, then I usually do it with only the ring and the middle finger (for the right). I handle both up and down by sliding my middle finger along the keys, like you would for Eve, just in reverse motion (down-up instead of up-down). Then, if I have to do it with the left, I just use the index instead. Works pretty well for me.
A Japanese elsword player as the video said, and a very good one at that. it's basically and upside down V step but it gives much more opportunities to attack and to dodge as you're on the ground a lot more so you can change direction in an instant. But of course like all good things it's hard as hell to get it.
The command is >>vZ, >vZ~ First you dash, drop down thru the platform and Z attack once which brings u back up. Then, you press the direction key once left or right whichever way ur facing, then drop down and Z attack again, repeating. After you make that first drop, Raven is still technically dashing, hence why you don't have to double tap the direction key again to use his toe smack.
I was wondering when someone was going to make something like this with all the steps tricks going on. Its about time LOL I even learned a little from this.
Another thing you can do for spring stepping is to switch the up and down arrows in the settings and slide your finger top to bottom on the arrow keys.
Well, there's an easier way into spring stepping (not sure if it is but i find this method easier). Simultaneously press the left and down arrow key with your index finger. Middle finger ofc, is on up arrow. Well, if you can press two keys at the same time, then you should be able to spring step easily to the left.
I got 2 questions for you: How long have you been playing this game? How long did it take you to learn/master those stepping skillz? (It's hard ._.) Thanks in advance for any response^^
Kirby can you give some piratical uses for some of these steps? Like the circle step, what am I going to use that for? o-o And I have to thank you, some of these things I was really puzzled on how to pull off, thanks for explaining them in a simple yet flashy fashion. Some were a little disorientating though, like the Platform sweep...Anyway I think you really help me "Step Up" my Raven/Elsword game!
I was hoping for something I didn't already know about, still thanks for the video. Never seen anyone use DDR(or is this DWI or SM?) to reference the keystrokes. I was let down, still a good video.
Go in free-training and practice. You don't have to hold anything down, just be quick about it. My perfect springstep usually looks like >>^v^v^v^ and yes, I do press the ^v consciously every time. You gotta press down while in the air and up right before you touch the ground. It's simply a rhythm that you need practice to perfect.
Platform sweep is also known as Endless Pain, as the original video (or so i assume its the first on youtube) was entitled that, and also... NOOOOOO WAI U REVEAL THE SECRET OF IT?!?!? EVERYONE GONNA DO TOE SMACK NAO... i had the chance to be special for once... -cry-
Uh question does the fast fall front slash count for elsword and raven? Or only raven, Cause i'm kind of having trouble with the front slash. Back slash already got it done. Awesome vid by the way learnt a lot from it
+Kenji Tomika well I have desktop and laptop but not a mechanical keyboard I play this game from a loonnngg time and please don't think I am noob I am a pvp player but i can't step I tried everything keyboard problem?
That's awesome! I did something similar (but for only 3 steps) for our community, Pretty sad we can't share things that are not made by ourselves, or i'd share this for sure.
How do you do it so smooth and alternating it so quickly to the other side? I can only imagine you using 2 hands on the arrow keys to spring step so quickly back and forth. In PvP, people who does this erratic movements freaks me out. It makes me wonder how they spring step and at the same time attack with such ease.
sorry,sir l really like your video.the one thing l want to ask is how to get that stuff on your video,then i keep practice on it i want to know if i press correct
Ugh...I have to wonder if the game has changed or if my computer just won't allow me to do some of these things. The way it's explained just doesn't work for me at all.
Tbh, I can only do it going LEFT an average of 5 times atm, current record is 9 blargh. Going RIGHT? Which direction is dat? 0_0 Also, Elsword really does troll players by making dem combos harder to perform going in certain directions (ZZ Loop going Left = Troll + etc). Don't worry; as long as you're patient & diligent like Kirby is, you slowly get the hang of these steps, with extra emphasis on the patience.
Wow.. umm Props! some stuff i simply cant do no matter how much practice. I feel the keyboard is holding me back. Id love to know your specs, keyboard, PC, monitor and stuff. would be a huge help.
Wait for the highest point of the dash jump, then tap down and then up. They should be pressed at almost exactly the same time, with down being a tiny bit earlier. It might feel odd, but you need to push up well before reaching the ground and the game will still queue that as a jump command. If you do this v^ correctly, it'll bounce your character off the ground into another dash jump. Wait for the highest point of the arc and repeat.
nope with 1 hand is the goal ^^ you need to react fast enough in using abilities. yet you can trick a lot, for springstep e.g, you can place the fingertip of your middlefinger right between ↑↓ , that way you can do a "wave-like" motion with you finger and trigger an easy springstepping. yet you need a lot of practise to master all that moves, especially springstepping is harder than it looks like.
God I miss Elsword from back then. I've played a lot of games and been apart of a lot of communities,but I'll never forget the Elsword community from when Elsword was still a young game and people were just coming up with combos for the first time and getting used to spring stepping and such.
Legit the most fun I've ever had in my 22 years of life.
Time flies.....
11 years already !
Such a classic !
Man, do I feel old watching these. Those were the days, the agony trying to do these steps but worth it.
It's already been 10 years... The video that started it all for me
The memories....
I came here to revisit the glorious teaching of the past
After KoG mess it all up
I still remember this video. Thank you for this tutorial, Kirby-sensei!
2020 in few days and I’m here cause I randomly thought of KirbyBlader
2019 and still learning from you, boss-man.

Oh god I miss 2013-2014 elsword era
Marvelous!
Nice guide you got there, also compliments to the clear inputs like ''holding'' a button. And I must say absolutely genius of using Stepmania for the inputs!
Thanks a lot for uploading this!
Nice touch with the DDR arrows very creative on showing the rhythm thumbs up!
Man this still is a great video
I miss you, Elsword.. I miss you
man, the way this video is done is so unique...using DDR style, nice
Good job. The idea with the Step Mania thing is very nice. Must have costed a lot of time.

He's considered to be among the best. He's certainly the most famous BM.
Of course, you can tell that even he has trouble with that Hinoppo Step.

niiiice.
i was actually planning on doing something like this for the Aisha and Eve pilots. good too see i wasnt the only one who though of this...
love the ddr pad makes it interesting to see what you are doing without recording your fingers
This is the first time I've heard of u kirdy an thx for teaching me how to spring step it really helped with ranking
Happy new year Kirby
I like to see your videos
EPIC EPIC EPIC
Wow Kirbo, this is an awesome video D: You must've put a ton of effort into it, but it came out really well.
Ow man.. the memories
I was wondering when someone was going to make something like this with all the steps tricks going on. Its about time LOL I even learned a little from this.

Dat platform sweep makes wolverine's berserker barrage jelly
3 years later, still checking out the vid to master the steps
normal with an usb keyboard with no much keyrolling it's impossible
+shidono you need an ps/2 normal keyboard or a mechanical keyboard (razer is the best for elsword)
I have a Razer
wich one? deathstalker or Blackwidow?
Nice video, looks like you put alot of time into these
IF you're seirous about learning this: Click the settings gear on the video and put it at .5
I got 2 questions for you:
How long have you been playing this game?
How long did it take you to learn/master those stepping skillz? (It's hard ._.)
Thanks in advance for any response^^
Wow that's so creative! Great job Kirby :D
Thank you so much, it is very helpful and Happy New Year to all of you ! ♥
Hinpopo step is a strictly 2 handed step. In order to do it with 1 hand, you need to reconfigure your keyboard.
Kirby can you give some piratical uses for some of these steps? Like the circle step, what am I going to use that for? o-o And I have to thank you, some of these things I was really puzzled on how to pull off, thanks for explaining them in a simple yet flashy fashion. Some were a little disorientating though, like the Platform sweep...Anyway I think you really help me "Step Up" my Raven/Elsword game!
Cool!!. Very Epic!,and Happy New year!
Just wow O.O I didn't even know you could do that at 2:40. Looks like i still have a long way to go XD
Love your videos omg.
The glory days
i could never learn how to do that Spring Step....until now. Thxs! ^^
Haha wow, I have been using some of those movements subconsciously all the time and didn't even know they had names.
yep same lol
I was hoping for something I didn't already know about, still thanks for the video. Never seen anyone use DDR(or is this DWI or SM?) to reference the keystrokes. I was let down, still a good video.
oh, you should also consider putting a stepmania pack for those who want to accurately practice the speed of the steps...
Go in free-training and practice. You don't have to hold anything down, just be quick about it. My perfect springstep usually looks like >>^v^v^v^ and yes, I do press the ^v consciously every time. You gotta press down while in the air and up right before you touch the ground. It's simply a rhythm that you need practice to perfect.
this is awsome!! it makes me easier to understand and fun!
Platform sweep is also known as Endless Pain, as the original video (or so i assume its the first on youtube) was entitled that, and also... NOOOOOO WAI U REVEAL THE SECRET OF IT?!?!? EVERYONE GONNA DO TOE SMACK NAO... i had the chance to be special for once... -cry-
You know to do these moves you can macro record them, tweak the timing to get perfect moves, then compile them to be usable with any keyboard key.
Uh question does the fast fall front slash count for elsword and raven? Or only raven, Cause i'm kind of having trouble with the front slash. Back slash already got it done. Awesome vid by the way learnt a lot from it
The best video tutorial ever =O
I noes weres yuus live! .........or ok, maybe I don't 0_0. Thanks for stepping it up earlier today!
thanks. gotta practise hinpoppo step now.
Is this harder to perform on a laptop, or am i just really that bad?
+재 kirby use a laptop mechanical keyboard...
+Kenji Tomika it's impossible for my laptop 5years and I can't spring step I doo all the difficult tricks that normal people can't but I never step...
+Kenji Tomika well I have desktop and laptop but not a mechanical keyboard I play this game from a loonnngg time and please don't think I am noob I am a pvp player but i can't step I tried everything keyboard problem?
+Kenji Tomika for desktop I have cooler master DEVASTATOR and for laptop I have a crappy keyboard idk the name
That's awesome! I did something similar (but for only 3 steps) for our community, Pretty sad we can't share things that are not made by ourselves, or i'd share this for sure.
Look at the discription " BGM: Stage 5 & Stage 1 - Dodonpachi Saidaioujou OST " ................
This WHOLE TIME, i was thinking to do spring step >>^V^V^ and never at the same time...DUDE, YOUR THE BEST
best tutorial ever
Using stepmania to show this...
That's actually pretty smart.
That was amazing!
Awesome! This helped a lot thanks!
Yeah, He PMed me and explained, to which, I am grateful I might add~
platform sweeping still has me at a loss
T^T
What's your attack & move speed? Are there requirements for the attack/move speed to do like the "Toe Smack" or "Hinpoppo step"? (PS: bad-ass.. XD)
How do you do it so smooth and alternating it so quickly to the other side? I can only imagine you using 2 hands on the arrow keys to spring step so quickly back and forth. In PvP, people who does this erratic movements freaks me out. It makes me wonder how they spring step and at the same time attack with such ease.
epic dude this is epic
haha styleeee! nice work :)
wowzers this is weird
i havent seen somthing like this
wow, it helps me alot, thx man :D
A pretty smart way for you to teach the steps~
I don't ever think that there is a method like this~ xD
sorry,sir l really like your video.the one thing l want to ask is how to get that stuff on your
video,then i keep practice on it i want to know if i press correct
good times
Hello significantly stronger to give you a praise
Amazing video, Kirby. Too bad I'll never be able to do this. :D
There's no stat requirements for hinpoppo step and toe smack
A skilled elsword player. Look up his channel.
Wow nice i really like it O_O One of the best.
Do you only use your thumb for the down key? And do you use the arrow keys or the number pad?
This is great
you are freaking amazing !!
Ugh...I have to wonder if the game has changed or if my computer just won't allow me to do some of these things. The way it's explained just doesn't work for me at all.
hey kirbs~ its me ladypanda, DIS VIDEO ITS ......BEAUTIFUL
Tbh, I can only do it going LEFT an average of 5 times atm, current record is 9 blargh. Going RIGHT? Which direction is dat? 0_0
Also, Elsword really does troll players by making dem combos harder to perform going in certain directions (ZZ Loop going Left = Troll + etc).
Don't worry; as long as you're patient & diligent like Kirby is, you slowly get the hang of these steps, with extra emphasis on the patience.
SHIT the my internet crashed after watching the video cuz the pro-ness was too great.
Hey Kirby, when Toe Smacking can you hold >? or do you have to press it separately from >>Vz?
BGM: Stage 5 & Stage 1 - Dodonpachi Saidaioujou OST
Am I the only one that came here thinking this is showing a defunct elsword dancing minigame?
whoa! so,to do the hinpoppo step,do you boost your jump speed or movement speed?
Wow..
umm Props!
some stuff i simply cant do no matter how much practice. I feel the keyboard is holding me back. Id love to know your specs, keyboard, PC, monitor and stuff. would be a huge help.
Hey Kirby B. Are you suppose to hit Up + Down (same time) or on after another but really fast? Can't seem to get the spring step
Wait for the highest point of the dash jump, then tap down and then up. They should be pressed at almost exactly the same time, with down being a tiny bit earlier. It might feel odd, but you need to push up well before reaching the ground and the game will still queue that as a jump command. If you do this v^ correctly, it'll bounce your character off the ground into another dash jump. Wait for the highest point of the arc and repeat.
Spring step at least makes you a harder target and a bit faster
Toe smack is actually easier with no attack speed and the speed of toe smack is by how fast you press the buttons not attack speed
nope with 1 hand is the goal ^^
you need to react fast enough in using abilities.
yet you can trick a lot, for springstep e.g, you can place the fingertip of your middlefinger right between ↑↓ , that way you can do a "wave-like" motion with you finger and trigger an easy springstepping. yet you need a lot of practise to master all that moves, especially springstepping is harder than it looks like.
Yoh! Kirby how do you have your key's set up? ._. Its that i dont have a good set up....or i'm just to slow to do it with one hand D:
Hi Kirby Blader, so in Fast Fall Slash in Front Slash can the players spam it like doing it all over again and again?
that saidaioujou music son
Spring step i find the hardest (besides V step) am i susposed press ^+v at the same time or press down when im in the air or what.
excelent video
dance dance dance..... let's Dance Together!
