Needs to be shield stun. To me the biggest problem from day 1 of beta till now is the fact that no matter how low or late you do an aerial, the full attack will go out and have you hover above the ground. That and just the general flatness of once you initiate an aerial, it just makes you float relatively in space, and minimizes gravity and previous momentum

I would argue many of the games core issues are because of the lack of a universal block mechanic. The reason why characters like Morty or Shaggy are so frustrating to play against is because of a lack of good options against their kits. For example, when Shaggy is about to kick you, you have two options: A. Jump over him, or B. Try to dodge it. Well, in case A you will generally be too slow so most players would go for option B. In option B's case, even if you time the dodge properly you still are generally not going to have enough time to punish Shaggy due to the distance of the kick. Because you are unable to punish said kick, Shaggy will continue to spam it. Shields solves this by giving the player extra options to deal with annoying moves such as Shaggy's kick. Now instead of having to time a dodge against a predictable move, I am now able to block said option and punish with my own option. One of the biggest complaints about current Multiversus how frustrating it can be and a big reason for that is the lack of options the game has when you are against predictable, spammable options like Shaggy's kick (Morty's dirt and Taz tornado are also applicable). Giving the player more options in combat is a good thing.

I don't think shields will fix this game, but I do think it's a step in the right direction. Granted, they need about 30 more steps in order for this game to be actually good, but hey, a start is a start.

Gay ass game fr, switch to rivals 2

Yall so silly b, shields is 100% needed in this game

Biggest issue imo about adding shields is what makes Steven universe unique to play then? Why was it not a design from the start? I like MVS but the dev team is uncertain if it wants to be casual party game or comp platform fighter. Not willing to stick around to find out. Too many other actually well designed games to spend my time on. Best of luck to those of you who actually wanna stick it out.

I hope this game doesn’t die again It’s a really cool idea but the game design at its core is so awkward. Weird hitboxes the input delay they have in between moves make the game feel so slow. The game has so much potential but it’s being limited 🙏🏾

You also have to realize characters like Shaggy, Superman, Wonder Woman, etc have armor moves. Meaning if this gets added you have to deal with both their shield AND armor, effectively making them untouchable.

if they add shields i'm actually going to be so sad.

With the release of rivals 2, multiversus is officially dead.

Shields should 100 percent be added not even debatable

Listen I understand playing aggressively and I used to hate shields because of how aggressive I was. But in this game you need them sometimes because some characters are broken and defensive options would make that better to play against.

Wawawa just get good at the game bro 😂

Great video

I myself feel like the complaints about shield are overblown. It is not a "I use this and I win the game option". Staying in shield uses dodge meter, which is your defense and mobility. There is literally a universal shield break which comes out fast and will be implemented better since they've already shown off shorthopping and fastfalling making movement a lot faster and smoother. In the hour or 2 I played with Shields I always felt that when I got hit by a shield breaker it was my own fault and it was a mindgame. Not to mention some aerials are just inherintly less safe (IG Nair) and should be used more sparingly which shields definitely do allow for. There's enough counterplay, people are just not wanting to adapt (HardcoreFox I'm looking at you)

rivals 2 is out this game is cooked

Thank you! Ive been trying so hard to tell the devs and the people that play this game that shields are terrible and should not be added! Im relieved that at least some people arenet happy with them, and hopefully they just scrap the idea because its so controversial.

Good points. ❤ There’s still hit boxes and I hate the auto tech. Just gives us a button. I almost forgot about those problems, that you for addressing them.

Let's say shields like made multiversus better but that still doesn't solve the horrible match making,horrible balance,the fact that buying 3 legendary skins is enough for a triple A game or the stages being boring

I stop playing multiversus since they nerf t&j to the ground. Rn I’m at the rival 2 wagon

oh so all the talk about testing it and getting people's feedbacks aren't considered. I see

dudes looked at rivals and thought "damn this games amazing!! i wonder what made it good. is it the well designed characters? the speed? the accesibility? the lack of predatory marketing teqniques? the good netcode? the transparent roadmap? characters being free and unlocked? no no!! its the shields!!!"

good vid, just gotta get a new mic, it sounds alittle rough

We need more of this 😂

You know I still haven't beat yhe trials yet lmao

Destroy us all

Oooooooo

Awesome job! These are really cool! I personally main Luigi!

The sho special…? I like it I mean I already new the combo, but you’re the first the name, and I’m pretty sure that’s how it works

What a great montage. 💪 Ok skool El Fuerte music 🎵🎶

why you gotta do yoshi dirty like that

This was decently hilarious. I give it a 4/5 lol

Cool

what are the mods you have for on the seismic armor and what is different from the last build video

Thx man good work

I want to thank you Shogun. This video inspired me to become good in Melee and the other smash games. This is a childhood gem of mine

Thanks for the guide, i had to turn it down though cos of the music choice was really loud.

This is why I'm now a SEGA person

good video - brawler man

Awesome tips bro! Great info for doomfist players!

Nintendo isn't in the right, but the game is nearly twenty years old, full of exploits, and competitive matches are almost completely run on hacked versions of the game (UCF and Slippi). If you want a game like Melee to be online, why not do what Rivals did and create your own competitive platform fighter.

Great vid man

LONG LIVE MELEE!!!!!!

I don't think this could have been expressed better. Personally with project M, the day that Nintendo put an end to the project I felt like the company revealed its true colors. They saw the impressive, creative and competitive scene as an abrasive and oppressive atmosphere to their vision and goal as a game company. This terrible judgment call, for whatever reason, disillusioned so many hardcore fans. I wished they would have embraced, rewarded and cultured the community. After all project M was unbelievable technical achievement in my opinion, all fueled by one of nintendo's greatest prospects of all time. Melee.

This kind of information is super valuable. I'm going to have to check back regularly to see what kind of info I can get off your channel. You're channel looks very diverse. Do you plan to do more Overwatch soon? I subscribed to your channel and hope to catch more of your Overwatch content! I'd love if you stopped by my channel and checked it out too! Thanks a lot!

I knew maxi was toxic when I first saw this game

great guide, love it. Subbed!

A:6 is a god like move. Wish I could do it

I need this

awesome, thanks! always wanted to learn taki
