P-Groove

Expecting a video for every groove now for no reason

agreed

[@jeyemangobravo]

a completely imperative reaction. we all SHOULD crave for them

[@HellecticMojo]

K groove videos is just Haorumaru oneshot compilations

[@hyliandoctor]

If I don't see Dictator painting some fences with A-Groove, I don't want it.

[@thefrozenshadowking]

I agree I want to know how each groove works

[@deepblue2]

Random P-Groove tidbit: A successful parry gives your next attack extra frame advantage. So, in situations where you parry up close, you're able to do certain links that are otherwise not normally possible.

[@Ramsey276one]

0:22 ...sometimes XD

[@OTHERMRBABCOCK]

But the parry pause isn’t the same as 3S, meaning your opponent can block or react as well as your not guaranteed a lot, if anything. Low attack timing is much harder than it needs to be and unless they major whiff or you have a total invincible startup move (like Vice’s 214+P) this groove is borderline worthless. EO isn’t even considered so this is not a point.

[@MS-ql8ek]

In this game for training mode to make videos, you can turn on auto parry

[@illstplaya84]

@@MS-ql8ek my thoughts exactly xD

[@silentscope88]

@@Ramsey276one So the reason for this is that when you parry a character there is a number of frames of frame stop for the parry animation. When you parry a projectile, only you are affected by the frame stop, the opponent is not. I actually go over this in my mechanics break down video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iofCoKGbj9qngtUsi=LDPr-MiIbFNfFAET&t=226

Cvs2, 3s, and mvc2 were peak capcom fighting games. An unbelievable run.

[@tykimikk8048]

Yes agreed

[@chiarosuburekeni9325]

All came out in a span of a couple years. Peak indeed

[@hiddenflowerto]

Can't wait for the arcsys remaster one day.

0:42 - How people picture themselves in P-Groove 0:28 - How things actually go in P-Groove.

[@Chadius]

Annoying P-Groove fighter? Just walk up and throw.

[@likky1]

i think the ultimate lesson is its not worth parrying fireball supers or supers that let the user move before the move finishes

[@ForeskinTim]

Good lord you butchered those timestamps lol

[@Sandberry]

Man I love Hidden and Message, two underrated fighting game characters.

[@kisaragireion]

Just when we thought 2023 doesn’t have enough time left for another surprise, here comes Desk with this gem

[@bubba-gumby]

2:57 ah yes, everyone's favorite boxer: -Balrog- -M. Bison- Dudley

[@BlazinTre]

The "Finest K.O." screen has to be the most hypest thing ever created in a fighting game.

[@esmooth919]

I prefer "Dramatic KO", myself.

[@supremeakuma]

[@WRILLI4M]

Even better than the Final Impact screen.

The morrigan section was crazy. Also the name changes were pretty great, especially the message at the end

[@yaasos5077]

0:59 LOOK THEY DID THE THING!

[@AnggoroArif]

A bit sad it's not Ken though..

[@tenkawa10]

the Finest KO screen is one of the most satisfying KO screens in a fighting game.

[@F.Hakeem89]

Kaiser Knuckle OST that's a deep cut Desk.

[@TheSeventhForce]

God damn, that Neo Deadly Rave parry was sick.

[@GlitchanBlack]

Parrying into the Misogi was just a complete flex, though.

[@squidee]

Parrying in this game is SO much harder than 3s Not only are there less freeze frames when you get a successful Parry but I'm pretty sure that the Parry recovery is not special cancelable

[@PizzamonkeyFGC]

Would love to see Desk take on more SNK fighters, especially Garou to see what kind of sauce he cooks up with just defends, the way counter hits work, and the usual choreographed shenanigans.

[@theobserver4214]

A video on the Art of Fighting games or Fatal Fury 2/Special would be interesting.

[@ShinigamiXZEROX]

"There is no hidden Dan here" uh? Absolutely love they way you match the characters!

[@0856401]

Great video! I miss CvS2 customization options. Even being able to change the character names was so awesome.

[@tykimikk8048]

Yes agreed did my whole community

Desk's music hits way harder when paired with gameplay of any kind.

[@MusicoftheDamned]

​@@LdarkkratosYeah, some of them don't really have rivals period, like Morrigan and her ancient sprite and poor, poor Kyosuke. Otherwise it mostly fits.

[@dougexists]

Parries are such an inherently cool mechanic. Sick video!

[@Capin91]

I think this is the most ‘Desk’ video in a while, and it’s not that the others were lacking XD Checks description for explanation; ‘I now know how to parry every super in the game’, also with stylish/funny punishes lol

[@salazar7223]

Another Classic. You hit it out of the park with this one Desk. Thank you for the video.

[@daegan_ftw]

The world needs to see what Desk could unleash via Custom Groove!

[@JetrinLee]

The fact you went through the process of learning how to parry every super shows how much dedication you put into your content 🙏

[@Rhiorrha]

This game is crazy in that any other game, where a block ends a ranbu/autocombo super after the dash impact, the super would also end when you parried the dash. In THIS...the super KEEPS GOING AND ALL HITS NEED TO BE PARRIED. Crazy AF...

[@C3lticlord]

love the character names like "hidden message" lol

[@GuntanksInSpace]

Gotta love that Global Champion/Kaiser Knuckle music choice (theme of BARTS)!

0:58 You aren't doing your due diligence if you don't. LETS GO JUSTIN!!

[@r1konTheAutomator]

I was huge into the FGC around this time, imo the golden age of fighting games. Nobody really ever used P groove, but man was I a huge fan of it. Just felt like it was underappreciated. My friend and I had a discussion around that time, why P groove didn't have EX moves, and if it did, it would probably be the best groove in the game. There was just WAY too much work involved in making ex moves for every character in the game - they'd have to do more than make them flash yellow, they'd have to give each move new properties. Would be cool if the mod community went after it like they do UMVC3 nowadays :D

[@curtissnellings1421]

Absolutely amazing!!! Happy new year 2024🎉❤

[@calcutlass]

Oh look, more proof as to why CVS2 was really the best game of the "Big 3" from that era of Capcom. No disrespect to 3S and MVC2, but this game is just the one. Really wish more people played this on Fightcade.

[@dragonlash]

The fucking P-Groove vid with Kaiser Knuckle music Absolutely GOATED

05:08 and 08:17 made me chuckle, especially since this seems like the most fun anyone has ever had in P-Groove. I was most surprised to see Hibiki's Lv. 3 needs to be parried twice though. Huh.
