Analyzing S rank top 100 fights | Armored Core 6 PvP

[@TheRoyalSkies]

MAJOR respect for sticking with your classic build in the middle of the Meta, loved the commentary, and looking forward to hearing more!!

[@Thryfe]

Thank you sir!

[@elmer4090]

Surprise! One of the best live commentators is an even better commentator when he can use both halves of his brain for it at the same time

[@Thryfe]

😁 you're too kind.

They need to have you host a tournament. You're charismatic enough while still knowledgeable enough

This was an amazing breakdown! Thank you Thryfe for all your positivity and contributions

You're welcome 😁. Thanks for watching and being pleasant bro.

[@viggen88]

Very informative! Would love to see more videos like this

[@Thryfe]

[@crestfallenhussar895]

Silver knight is so cool. It's what I aspire to make some day. It's not "meta' but it's not bad either. It's the perfect AC for its pilot and that's you.

[@Thryfe]

@@crestfallenhussar895 Yep! It's made for my exact playstyle 😁 I have the most fun on it.

[@fact_frenzy386]

Yo, I learned so much from this video. I know it was long but please do more like these. I never realized positioning was so important.

[@Thryfe]

I'm happy you were able to take away some stuff from this. Yeah, stuff like positioning we never give much thought to until we get realllly competitive lol. It makes a huge difference in gameplay once you start doing it though.

[@JohnTitor-K22]

Loving your AC videos man, your PVP skills are spicy.

[@Thryfe]

I'm stoked to hear it my guy. I appreciate you watching.

[@collinmanning8334]

We'll never probably get a cross play update which kills me. Monolith V.7 VS. Silver Knight would be a epic matchup. Excellent job sticking to your build and polishing your skill with it, I've done the same. Non meta FTW.

[@Thryfe]

Non meta ftw indeed!

[@another505]

I enjoyed this a lot more than your typical video, I love the analysis to show your thoughts and strategies. Those were really solid strategies and thinking.

[@Thryfe]

@@another505 I'll see if I can do more stuff like this video.

[@TGM-Videos]

I've thought about making vids like this. Explaining things calmly and what both players are doing right and wrong

[@Thryfe]

It's a nice change of pace.

[@rockblockstudio]

informational videos like these are always good, especially when we got players abusing a bugged part. Good job explaining your mindset and how you handle matches

[@Thryfe]

Thank you 😁

[@DrkTide7]

Great video! Would love more of this type of content.

[@andrenighthawk4431]

Very detailed explanation. Knowledge increased. The technique against those neo statue will be put to good use. See you on the battlefield!

[@Thryfe]

I'm happy to hear it!

[@shareefpeoples5317]

Ima sound salty but that Lame kite kill was tasty. I adored seeing you slaughter that build.

[@Thryfe]

😂 it's all good. It's a frustrating build to play againt.

[@krekkyboy5816]

Oh yooo the lamm kite info actually is very nice! I actually won against one right after i watched this and applied said strategy! Even when fighting in the space port it does help! These kinds of video is very nice hehe

[@Thryfe]

Dude nice! I'm wicked glad to hear that. I was hoping it would help.

[@guamtek]

Post fight commentary means even MORE access to the tactics and thought process of the Thryfe! Really enjoy understanding your how you go about your fights in full detail

[@Thryfe]

I'm stoked you like the format of this video. Post commentary is hit or miss for some people.

[@guamtek]

The fact that you focus on live reactions and can supplement post commentary is a win in my book. I'd say a good 80% live/20% post is a good balance to shoot for. Either way, your always killing it, dude

[@BorisBlyat]

100% listening to his breakdowns and actually applying it helps me so much to climb rank

[@decaffrican279]

"Give him that english special real quick, hold this kuh nife bruv." 😂😂😂😂

[@Thryfe]

🤣 had to give em the shiv.

[@CK1000997]

I love this format! With my favorite version of Silver Knight with the dagger and the assault armor, too. So stylish and agressive! I do understand why the build changed since, I would have probably done the same if I had to climb this S Rank ah ah The selection of matchup is a real plus in this kind of format. Good work as always.

[@Thryfe]

Yeah I climbed with the assault armor successfully but figured I'd give pulse armor a shot too 😄 Thank you!

[@HimiJendrix21]

So glad you uploaded this, loved hearing your breakdown!

[@Reaper-sails-to-mars]

Bro you’ve become one of my favorite KZbinrs in just a few days. I love the energy.

Thanks dude! That's such high praise, I appreciate it.

If you hosted a tournament I’d gladly join. Hopefully it’s a PlayStation tournament.

[@taylorcorker6069]

Me too!

[@Rho_dri]

Yo Thryfe! your vids are entertaining and fun to watch even as I don’t have armored core, nor played any previous games 😂

[@Thryfe]

That makes me smile 😁. I appreciate you watching my stuff even though it's Armored Core haha!

[@sorex-vagrant]

Coq/Gat combo is soooo FUN, you're defs right about it requiring discipline but once grasped its just a super fun and nasty combo! Thanks for sharing the strats, taking notes 📝🤓

[@Thryfe]

Yeah I love it dearly. It's my ideal playstyle. I'm happy you enjoy it too, and you're welcome!

[@mickeyspeer5670]

Haha same reason i use all melander. I just like the look. And your build acts a lot like mine when i was able to play. I used dual coquiletts and the back gatling though. Overall Same strategy. Dont just spam shots. Back gat mainly for a little rang and and keep up stagger between reloads. Though i swap the orbt back and forth a lot. I just love orbits and couldnt settle haha awesome vid man. Kind of like hearing you give a deep dive into your mind set in battles

[@Thryfe]

Using what you like makes the victories even better. Thanks! It's nice to change it up.

[@bartzhang391]

Very intuitive and engaging commentary, great watch thank you, happy holidays

[@Thryfe]

I'm glad you enjoyed ,😁 happy holidays.

[@user-nn5vg5ct5n]

my main ac runs curtis and coquillett and yeah ammo discipline really makes the build if it is played right the damage and stagger potential is mad (the coquillett is an amazing side arm to make some of the lesser guns get their potential unlocked for sure) super good video as usual i have taken notes lmao

[@Thryfe]

Yeah I constantly find myself using the pistol to compliment stuff 😄. Thanks bro.

[@drakonna6281]

exelent commentary my guy, some great tips here too 10/10 vid thanks for making it!

[@Thryfe]

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed!

[@Cleptomancer]

This build is definitely growing on me😂 I feel you on the recoil as well. I tried Firmeza arms, but then I had to switch Hu-Ben to Attache. Better at mid range pressure, but less effective on a punish.

[@Thryfe]

I actually really like the attache and I want to put together a build around it.

[@Cleptomancer]

@Thryfe I'd love to see what you'd come up with👍🏾 It feels like a rapid fire rifle more than a machine gun & it's Surprisingly good at Ground to Air engagement I've found.

[@stin4173]

Loved this in depth analysis Thryfe i learned a lot!

[@Thryfe]

That's what I was hoping for 😁

[@spiraljumper74]

Silver Knight is an iconic build for AC6 imo. I’ve seen plenty of copycats.

Really? That's pretty tight.

[@stubb3dto338]

Dude this is super helpful, I tried a super similar build after the first top-100 but with a Sampu for supply efficiency and an MLT-10 to make the kites get close, it's legit crazy what a gatling gun can do to people

[@Thryfe]

Yeah it's under utilized imo. I'm happy to have helped.

[@BadRussianRock]

Thanks for the breakdown! Hope to fight you in ranked :D

[@Thryfe]

Same!

[@ArmoredMaster]

Great video from Thryfe the wise, and I'm glad you're ranking up with such an unusual build! What do you think about Etsujin? Playing mostly during JP time, most battle are Etsujin-backpedalers trying to AP lead. I'm so fed up with this weapon which is sooo consistent in damage, reload speed, ACS strain... and so light :( I really feel like it's even more meta than Zims, even after its last nerf, and most people won't bother being creative because of it. Anyways, keep making these great vids and downing Lam kites 🤟

[@Thryfe]

Thanks! I don't think etsujin is tooooo bad, but it probably needs another very slight nerf to bring it in line imo. I personally feel like LRB 100% needs a nerf more than any other stuff. That weapon does everything, and it does it all way too well.

[@firstername]

26:26 i feel you dude i get a lil giddy when i see my main ac too lmfao

[@SeraphBlademaster]

Benn rocking almost part for part the same, just different head and arms and with a haldeman shotgun. Tried the pistol and while I think its better in the heavier matchups, I found the halde to be very VERY good into the lightweight/ kiting matchups.

[@Thryfe]

I tried out the haldeman a while ago and it's definitely a solid choice with the gatling for sure.

[@SICKSINCE]

After I got to A and then started over from jump just to be stuck at B. I gave up PvP and started just creating cosplay business for fun. Peace bro thanks for all your tips and insight.

[@Thryfe]

I can understand that. Cosplays and customs are a lot of fun. I appreciate you watching.

Shankin' a poor bloke in the skreets of London a bit churlish, innit?

[@ratchetandchank8648]

hey looking to get back into ac6 pvp. Is it possible to dodge everything the opponent throws at you given you havent exausted your boost meter? And how impactful has the patches since release been? I remember just being rolled my quadruped missile spam and dual mini gun tanks back then, which was the reason I stopped playing pvp.

[@Thryfe]

Yeah it's possible, as long as you learn the right ways for each weapon. The patches have changed a lot since release. Double gatling is very scarce, it's treated as a troll meme build. There is only one dedicated missile kite build now and you don't see it around too much. There are new meta builds of course, but all the old stuff is gone. The current metagame is the most diverse one we've had technically.

[@ratchetandchank8648]

@@Thryfe thanks for the help 🫡

[@KingAuz]

I just wanted to comment b4 I watched the video

[@Thryfe]

I appreciate it.

[@Plus_Escapee]

Unlike the dagger, the charged attack on the pulse blade is useful as a neutral attack. My favorite weapon, the dagger, although stronger as a combo-mixer for higher total punish damage, doesn't do as much punish damage on it's own without other stagger extending attacks (like punches or shotgun blasts) and isn't as useful in normal close-range situations outside of stagger, although the charged attack is decent. Thryfe knows what they are doing. I prefer the dagger but recommend the pulse blade for general use.

[@Thryfe]

Your right. They both have interesting roles they fill to the point where it could easily come down to preference. I love what the pulse blade offers.

[@roninsghost108]

Yoooo dagger plays less go

[@AutobotR-524]

You should try doing some FIST ONLY pvp fights

[@NOISYxNINJA]

Hey man! Love the content, you inspired me to give pvp a try and I'm doing ok but if you have any tips that would be greatly appreciated!

[@Thryfe]

Nice! Is there anything in particular you feel like you're having trouble with?

[@NOISYxNINJA]

I think my biggest issue is timing stun punishes right, I feel like I'm always just a second to slow to get a kick in or anything else really so i just end up rapid firing into them as a punish

[@Thryfe]

@NOISYxNINJA You could always keep a ranged punish on you until you get better at the timing. Javelin Alpha bazooka is a strong punish. It also has a lingering explosion afterwards so you could stun with it and still get punish damage off it at the same time. Beyond that I'd say if you're about to stagger someone you can start assault boosting at them that way you're already closing the distance and you gain the increased impact buildup assault boosting gives to your weapons.

[@NOISYxNINJA]

@@Thryfe i will try that! Thank you very much!

[@ravenseyeimage]

Coquillet on the shoulder? I suck at swapping so I'd botch this build lol incredible piloting though! Huxley is an interesting choice too!

[@Thryfe]

It doesn't have to be on the shoulder, I just like having the sword out for cool factor.

[@ravenseyeimage]

@ Nice, I dig how you use Huxleys too, I've never used them before. You inspired me. 😁

I need crossplay or you to get on PC (I'm a controller hater, MKB for life). I gotta play you someday, bro.

[@XChackasSX]

are you playing with controler or keyboard?

[@Thryfe]

Controller

[@XChackasSX]

@@Thryfe Ty for the answer, i was playing with controller and its better to track enemies, but keyboard are awesome to follow them and to aim where to move, but when i was using controller it was easy to land melee hits not like keyboard because when enemy is lock on when i move mouse it lose that lock. I discovered you few hour ago, im glad to follow you.
