So throwing vertical works better with a 2 hander because you throw straight because your arms are not pulling to the left or right. one handed should start from a horizontal position and throw over the shoulder so hand, elbow then shoulder.

[@verihimthered2418]

Nice intro transition

[@stevene6482]

“This ax is sick” Well, that ax WAS sick until it lost a chunk of its blade.

Nah, that tree is a masochist. Chains, whips, twitted tipples. Loves it. Slut.

[@galenwolf]

I really want to see Shad's reaction when you return the axe.

[@ssegrub]

Me too

[@badgerpa9]

The problem is it needs to be heavier to sink into the wood when you throw it, but the weight will make it harder to get distance. If you hit the tree with the axe more standing up the rotation will also cause it to drop out, it needs to hit with the handle providing push not at a straight up and down position. Nice looking axe btw.

[@TheHatShallDie]

Someone else commented that the vertical throw worked better because the axe wedges itself between the fibers of wood. That might be true, but I believe a far bigger effect is that of gravity. With the vertical throw, the spinning of the axe is in direct alignment with gravitational force, as opposed to that of the 45-degree throw, where it only gets about half the effect. It also may have something to do with it being easier to put power into an overhead throw than the sort of sidearm toss.

[@coolz223rox]

From my experience with axe throwing I think they got it right on the money with the direction of the fibers. When I use a thinner axe it doesn’t like to go into the wood unless it’s up and down. If you use a round of wood though like at a lot of axe throwing places you can stick it at any angle because you’re going top down.

[@GaiusIncognitus]

Would love to hear you and Shad discuss the value of different axe shapes and stuff. You do so much with swords and others, but I feel axes get shafted. Like, is the bearded axe best? Why or why not? That handle looked boss because of the curve in it. How does that affect handling or shock absorption? So much I want to know.

[@badgerpa9]

axes get shafted, lol.

[@sebaredghost9068]

Since you break the tip of your axe Tyranth, you now have to make an new and more accurate Leviathan axe, for your next video.

Maybe throwing vertical works better because the blade wedges itself between the fibers of the wood.

[@xxxlonewolf49]

Spins better vertical as well, doesn't get thrown off balance.

[@jerrystott7780]

Most are targets are from end of a log. Easier to stick in. (Grew up in the woods many years ago and competed in logging festivals in the seventies) have a great day

[@dariuspatrick1385]

Axe throwing is actually really easy and doesn't really require training. I don't know about Australia but in the US there are places you can go to throw axes just for fun and for the most part it only takes 1 or 2 throws to get the hang of it and not even that a lot of the time. First time I went axe throwing I hit the target every time. It's really not hard

[@BVidwatcher]

I seen the shops/bar around my area, but never entered though.

[@BaithNa]

Axe throwing is easy, that's why people do it as a recreational activity like its an escape room or arts and crafts

[@ShiningDarknes]

It is very instinctual as long as the axe is balanced like an axe should be, unlike knife throwing where they are "balanced" as opposed to being asymmetrically weighted. With an axe you can let the axe do most of the work, just kinda toss it with what you think is enough power and it will stick 9/10 times even if you have never thrown one before. Throwing knives? Yeah, no as has been demonstrated on this and Shad's channel they take far more skill/finesse, there are techniques you need to use to get them to stick. TL;DR: There is a reason axes are strength weapons in many RPG systems, you really can just use strength to make them work for you. Technique helps but is not required.

[@PJDAltamirus0425]

@@ShiningDarknes Ehh.. if you want good accuracy with them like you are doing darts, their is a techinque you should practice and if you want to stick with a semi dull axe. The sharper the axe the easier to stick but you rely your axe being super sharp all the time.

[@ShiningDarknes]

[@asolanara]

I loved seeing you having so much with this one! I've curious with how much your proficiency with other weapons helped you with the handling of a brand new one to you.

[@Roland3ld]

Here's the usual full support for channel growth.

[@markfergerson2145]

Wild guess here, but possibly the game devs based his throw distance on some real-world observations or even testing. He is considerably taller than you are, but your axe is pretty much in scale to you compared to his axe to him. Hence your throw distance, ignoring him being a deity and all, should be roughly proportional, and it is. Breaking the blade tip is not surprising at all. It looks like a relatively thin-bladed fighting axe, and axe-throwing competitors use typical thicker-bladed chopping axes that are a lot harder to break. I’ll bet a cookie that the blade is through-hardened too, making it brittle. I’m glad that the video was fun to make because it sure was fun to watch!

[@cranberrylangers3095]

That noise when you threw the axe to the side was awesome! :D

[@TheBodo]

never given someone a like for asking that way, but oh well, first time for everything. You deserve it for that!

[@NolanOhBrien]

You really did make that look easy lol impressive as always

[@Grandwigg]

I nearly lost it when he did the game loading screen for the scene change between talking about the long throw distance and the field for the test itself. Brilliant. As for not making the long throw further in the game, it's possible they thought it was already at superhuman distance. Hopefully the broken to doesn't cost too much lol.

[@Greybeardstavern]

It’s grain of the wood problem with the two handed throws. That hardwood would make it really tough to stick one sideways. If you had cork or bails of hay you’d stick with those throws. Your rotations at different ranges were smack on! 👏😲

[@TheStrykerProject]

Axe throwing is a blast. A friend and I and our spouses went to an axe-throwing....studio? You walk in, rent a lane and an axe, they'll show you some techniques (yep, there is a technique for throwing), and then you drink and throw axes. Good times. Tyranth makes it look easy...perhaps from years of handling weapons and throwing them. I think that axe's shape may help, too...?

[@samfisher1024]

Nailed the distance! 85%of Ax throwing is being at the correct distance vs the rotation of the Ax. Usually at 3meters it should do 1 full rotation. Also the type of Ax head it was, "bites" into the target better when the top quater hits first. Looks like why a few of your throws ricochet. The blade landed flat so couldnt bite. Great video! And for second time throwing you did an amazing job. Oh pro tip for double hand throws should cup hands together instead of separate. Less chance of a finger lingering or one hand opening sooner.

[@mariestarlight]

Honestly amazed how well that works.

[@huntermccarraher8935]

I used to work at an Axe throwing place and throw when we didnt have any customers and I will be the 1st to say its really simple which doesnt make it any less of a blast. Getting good is pretty much about accuracy and trick shots

[@Wucc2caz]

Shoot a scene where Shad gets to see his axe returned.

[@Mepper.]

When you threw in the Kratos 2-handed style the axe rotated in 2 axes. That usually prevented the axe from sticking in the tree because the sideways torque twisted the blade out from the impact. For your other throws the axe almost always only rotated in 1 axis.

[@davetapper677]

My inner Viking/Dwarf absolutely freaking loves axes.

[@AaronBaker-g8g]

You just know shad is gonna have a field day with this

[@miguela7819]

Thank you tyranth, for giving the Kratos axe manipulations a fair chance, if I may add I have created a small scale replica of Kratos's leviathan axe from God of war, and from that scale replica throwing I have done, the curves of the handle seem to aid with the throwing, so I think that if you were make a prop with an exact replica handle, you might be surprised by it's performance, seriously if possible do consider it

[@lualdiz]

Kratos' throwing distance being shorter than a normal dude's just goes to show how inconsistent his strengh is in the games. The thing should rip through the air like a tank shell but it appears they wanted to make this a perk and not a base ability? I know his other limitations are for gameplay purposes but still, he can't even jump in the newer games, and he could in the classics, even jump in the air😂

[@davidwhidden9337]

His knees are bad! The dude is old.

[@NoTengoStand]

Isn't Ty throwing a bit downhill though? That should give him a bit of extra distance.

[@geoshark12]

Its not inconsistent hes holding back and theres multiple reasons to do that , for one accuracy, two unsure if this applies to him but preserving stamina, three not wanting to break the axe , four not wanting to damage his surroundings or people he doesn’t want to hurt.

[@PJDAltamirus0425]

Well, one he is old, two isn’t like a huge plot point that he is my trying to just wreck everything anymore and that he finds his younger self cringe? The gameplay is supposed to be more methodical. Also, interesting , there was a god of war before god of with a dude that used a shield on a chain. I hope a dev revives it

[@coolz223rox]

Kratos is 6’4” so “kratos steps” might be a bit farther. Ty was throwing downhill. Ty’s a pretty strong dude having fun. The devs probably didn’t want you to start the game beaming enemies with the axe from half a mile away. Also the jumping… idk man lol you kinda cooked me on that one. 😂

[@baeber]

lets go a new tyranth video

[@mrgoober6320]

I've never been a fan of throwing at living trees. It's easy enough to find a dried out cross-section that you can throw at without opening a tree that could live hundreds of years.

[@SPARTAN22294]

I hope one day the game God of War (2018) comes to the XBOX. Because it's not big of stretch since it's now on PC.

[@Dariobrazil]

[@SonOfPride5]

Did anyone else realize that the chipped axe tip made it look more like the fully upgraded Leviathan axe

[@heathmorris6100]

In my experience axe throwing actually gets easier the larger the axe. Hand axes and hatchets are considerably harder to throw and stick consistently than larger aces like the one in this video

[@AlexMartin-n9y]

I think Kratos can throw the axe and embed it in someone's skull at 20 to 40 kf ( Kratos feet) and that is where is divine strength helps. Saying this it would be so fun to see you throw the axe at these distances into a target.

[@keelsron634]

Hey totally enjoyed your video wanted to let you know I used work at Epicenter (family fun place in Cali) where you can throw axes & knifes indoors and what I've noticed is when you keep hitting the same spot the wood gets chipped up it's actually harder for the ax to land in that spot so chances are if you keep hitting the same spot repeatedly it doesn't matter how you throw the ax it simply won't stick when the wood gets incredibly chipped up perhaps the same thing happened to your tree I don't know but I did notice you started to throw further away it landed higher from The Sweet spot you were hitting. Yes the overhand throw is much better technique and how far you are definitely helped but what I was thrown with small hand axes would have loved to throw the kratos axe lol.

[@broute]

[@v2mrstevenofv259]

It makes it more nimble/wieldable. Lower on the handle makes for more power, higher up gives you more control. Hope that helps!

[@swordpanda7panda795]

well when you think about it throwing a object comes down to how much force you can apply to it as an example to the strenght of kratos (or any fictional character) first throw a wooden stick as refference then a twig logically you'd imagin that you'd throw the twig further than the stick since it is lighter however that isn't the case the twig will fly segnifficantly shorter the weight of an object and densety play a huge roll in it and also the zero to apex point of contact now i just quickly come up with this comparing it with my life expiriences i do believe there should be some nerd who actually made the correct calqulations and equasions on why this phenomenon happens in physics

When throwing an axe you want to be at six paces or a multiple of it to get ideal rotation to land blade first. Yay working at a boy scout camp when I was younger

[@h.1699]

Kratos could be too stacked to raise his arms high enough for the overhead throw or the perpendicular to the ground one... the 45° and off center throws could be the best his model can manage without weird glitching.
