History Of Siegfried Soul Calibur 6

[@Xehanort10]

Siegfried's quite a tragic character. Kills his father unknowingly then when he realises what he did he can't handle it and his inability to accept it causes him to seek out Soul Edge and causes him to become the monster Nightmare.

[@master-of-many-fandoms2020]

Yes. But then, he conquered the darkness in him and accepted the truth

[@thetoondevil]

The hero gone bad stereo type is very common in fighting games, but I often felt Siegfried/Knightmare was possibly one of the most well written. It's not an evil power that's inherited, but one that was obtained through searching for a solution to ones cause. Siegfried had honorable goals, but he didn't realize the very tools he would use would actually do more harm then good. The hero acknowledges his mistakes, and tries to redeem himself, not after beating himself up about it though. And th is is why he's one of my more favorite characters in gaming.

[@unknowingreaper6556]

Silverware Warrior he was never hero, guy killed his own father for Christ sake due to being with a gang of degenerates. It wasn’t until after his release of soul edge did he try to atone for what he did.

[@jackkilburn1829]

@Unknowing Reaper Siegfried is what most people would call an antihero as he starts out young and naive, becomes a tool of evil and then finally fights for his redemption. Anti heroes are more realistic, because nobody is perfect. We can all feel more in common with an antihero because he or she makes mistakes like we humans do. He is not without his faults and many people want him dead, but that's what makes his story interesting.

[@finalfantasyfan0128]

I'm in!

[@jqthemadkid]

History Behind The Warrior I like taki

[@Mecha82]

History Behind The warrior I would love to see Taki get spotlight.

[@streetman88]

Taki for me. I always tend to go for the fast and flexible type of fighters in fighting games (which most of the time is women). Plus she just REALLY looks 🔥 in that super skin tight outfit 😍

[@HamanKarn567]

Taki is great Ivy sucks.

[@DEEDUBZ]

Heishiro Mitsurugi and Siegfried/Nightmare and Cervantes are my top 3 characters. Siegfried at the age of 16, 5ft 6 was carrying the heaviest weapon in soul blade as well as wearing heavy armour suit. Made that shit look easy. TRUE WARRIOR!!

[@daniellouisdollete3000]

mitsurugi is fav too!

[@destinycybermic6930]

Yupp

[@DEEDUBZ]

Yep! I remember the narrator describing Mitsurugi as a 'Skilled Swordsman'. Easily the best fighter in the game and even without his weapon he's extremely skilled. His movement, body positioning to launch attacvks and also predict his opponents moves; hsi overall switch from defence to attack is incredible.

[@DEEDUBZ]

Li Long had the best throws in the game though. That neck slit and brainbuster ddt. Deadly!!!

[@NidokingOtsutsuki]

@@DEEDUBZ Mitsurugi is a perfectly balanced fighter, this makes him solid mid tier, with essentially no good/bad matchups. Everyone should become good with Mitsurugi before they find their main. It'll mean slower progression in the short term, but its a valuable long term investment.

[@TheMan-je5xq]

Siegfried was always my favorite character in Soul Calibur and his fighting style is surprisingly easy to use despite the size of his enormous sword.

[@Thechezbailey]

He and Nightmare are both quite quick for such big guys

[@TheMan-je5xq]

@@Thechezbailey I always thought Nightmare was a bit sluggish compared to Siegfried, Siegfried was much more fluid in comparison

[@NidokingOtsutsuki]

@@TheMan-je5xq Nightmare is a stop/start kind of fighter, whereas siegfried is a very flowy fighter. In most matchups, sieg feels faster because of this, however in a Nightmare vs Siegfried scenario, Nightmare beats him to the punch with multiple of his attacks. Nightmare has better acceleration, Siegfried has a higher top speed, if you will.

[@TheMan-je5xq]

@@NidokingOtsutsuki so basically Nightmare is good at going from 0-100 but bad at every speed between that?

[@Historybehindthewarrior]

Vote - Ivy Valentine

[@OmnicidalClown1992]

Yes! Yes I want to see a video of Ivy!

[@WarbucksGaming]

History Behind The Warrior you should do Cassandra

[@shaquemoore9270]

The do Cervantes

[@Zenith8896]

Taxi

[@joeldean3865]

Ivy would be cool because her sowrd is cool

[@-Ryu]

Siegried, A Rising Hero who turns himself into the villain. Truly, this idea should prove to be something special, especially if used correctly.

[@EloquentTroll]

I started the series at Soulcalibur 2, and I have been a Seigfried main ever since. I grew to appreciate what I could glean of his story, but thank you for this video it connected a lot of pieces for me.

[@The13thElysium]

Siegfried is an excellent example of a character who seeks redemption and goes from villian to hero unlike Patroklos! You should do the history of Soul Edge (Inferno) and of Soul Calibur (Elysium) and also Hilde. :D

[@CountofBleck]

How is seigfried any different from patroklos? They were both young and dumb, both manipulated by evil swords, and both try to make things right.

[@000mjd]

@@CountofBleck the diference Is That Siegfried pay a unfair high price for His mistake and after that he dedicated Is whole life to amend His sins , patroklos was just antes arrogant whelp

[@SeventhheavenDK]

@@000mjd . The difference is that Patroklos has appeared just in ONE game. Siefgried needed 6 games to reach that point. Just saying.

[@lesteryaytrippy7282]

Siegfried is a Chonky Buff Cake

[@NidokingOtsutsuki]

Both dumb kids who did dumb shit. Siegfried did wayyyyyy dumber shit and became a better person in the end. Other than that, they are the same. Hence why Sieg trusted patroklos with the sword.

[@LuckyDT]

This is a great series, keep up the good work! Tough to find Soul Caliber info based on the character lore.

[@tommo21tm]

Really glad you're gonna be covering the Soul Blade/Soul Calibur series! I started with Soul Blade on the PS1 when I was about 5 and Siegfried's ending scared the ever living piss out of me! It still sends me funny thinking about it now; just the music and his screams as Soul Edge consumes him was terrifying to me.

[@1wngdngl]

Hey, I totally understand - it /is/ scary, especially if you weren't expecting it! His "good" ending was also more depressing than a lot of the "bad" endings...

[@faffytaffy18]

I HOPE they bring Zasalamel back.

[@heatblaze123]

You got your wish

[@joshuaolsen6509]

I got Siegfried and Zasalamel. But THAT wasn't enough. NOW Geralt of Rivia is appearing. #FanBoyFreakout

[@freddymegax4481]

I really need this. I started playing Soul Calibur at the 4th game and the lore REALLY confuses me.

[@bigloc3442]

Freddymega x 2 is the best one and 3 . Check them out if u haven't already

[@rockmanbeta8055]

Soul Calibur VI is a retelling of the story, and it actually has a lot of callbacks to the original plot points and such. Yous should check that out too

[@mareo187]

Siegfried/Nightmare the GOATS of Soul Calibur

[@tymiller2903]

WHY, is there not a soul calibur anime!?

[@sgtwolf7391]

Ty Miller because cartoons based off video games suck.

[@HeilerDerWelten]

Castlevania is great.

[@ryanmorfei6325]

Because there are so many characters with very separate stories. Some characters never even meet eachother

[@mareo187]

I don't know but it would make a very good anime aslong the project Soul team is involved. Tekken should definitely get a anime too.

[@mareo187]

ryan morfei the latest tales anime which focus on Zestiria and Beseria doesn't bring the characters together either for obvious reasons Beseria takes in 1000 years before Zestiria. A potential anime Soul Calibur will most likely have 5 main factions which are #1 Kilik, Xianghua, and Maxi. #2 Yung Soeng,Soeng-Mina, and Talim for the group with Cassandra, Taki, Misturugi, and other side main characters kinda involved with their story. #3 Nightmare, Tara, Astroth, Lizard Man, Ivy, Zalsamel, Voldo and even Cervantes will star in that faction/part. 4th will be possibly Groh and his gang. And finally #5 the main protagonist group while Kilik is indeed the 2nd main protagonist of the series this group will star Siegfried and Hilde.

[@vampskeldragon]

Taki has always been my favorite character, so my vote goes to her. :)

[@jamalsimmons619]

I played soul caliber 6. But its feel like more of a filler from soul caliber 1 to 2 instead of a reboot. True the whole story of all the characters. Also, i always respect seigfied story in this game with all the others. Hope soul caliber 7 live up the high.

[@DEEDUBZ]

'Ive never had such an easy victory' BADMAN!! His bad ending in soul blade was kinda sad

[@1wngdngl]

His /good/ ending in Soul Blade was pretty sad too :(

[@DEEDUBZ]

@@1wngdngl Yeh. I think he was born cursed.

[@musicbrush9231]

Some time ago I got a copy Broken Destiny for the PSP and after some time with that game Siegfried became my best character with Nightmare my favorite character. Now that I have Soul Calibur VI I've put so much time in Nightmare I'm afraid I lost my touch with him. It was to the point I'd give my nephews, who are better players than I, a VERY hard time if I played as Siegfried.

[@trombonekingdom]

Siegfried is my favorite soul calibur character. Really great vid man

[@mjolnirmilitia569]

You're In my way, STAND ASIDE!

[@LunarAce64]

Soul Calibur 5 was SO bad that Soul Calibur basically got rebooted.

[@SeventhheavenDK]

Gameplay wise was excellent.

[@shaolinsnake9650]

The story was crap, but the playstyle was my favorite of all the saga

[@jdoe27]

Ahh, I remember this game well, and of course .. being pitted against Ivy every god damn time my parents walked in the room.

[@stevencisneros9306]

Do a video on Taki!!

[@Howlingburd19]

My favorite fighting game character :)

[@bobsav76]

Thumbs up if you would like a new Soul caliber game!

[@Solbrave00]

Seigfried = Guts

[@CelestialReturner]

"Did that plan backfire..." Yeah...

[@TheGameRonin0619]

Hold on, what about Sigfried training Petrokalos, so that way he realizes the true form in which to use Soul Calibur

[@BurnTilDeath]

Just clearing up a few things to what my memory tells me about SC canon. I don't think any of the in-game profiles said that SC1 Nightmare lost to Xianghua, but it is said in Kilik's SC2 profile that he defeated Nightmare during SC1, but "couldn't destroy Soul Edge". This perhaps implies Kilik lost to Inferno afterwards, and Xianghua beats Inferno. Though it is likely both Kilik and Xianghua fought Nightmare together though, which makes sense considering the situation. I'm assuming SC6 will clear this up though. Also, I'm pretty sure you got the whole Abyss SC3 events wrong (even though I do like the idea of Siegfried and SC3 Nightmare teaming up to kick Abyss' butt). Tbh, SC4's profiles were never clear if Zasalamel even became Abyss in canon; it only mentions that Siegfried and Nightmare were both ripped apart by the maelstrom created by the swords' clash, and Zas saw the future and changed his mind about ending his own immortality. However, I'm hoping someone can prove me wrong on this because the idea of Siegfried and Nightmare teaming up to kick Abyss' butt before their big sword clash in SC3's finale sounds awesome.

[@SeventhheavenDK]

Well, Soul Calibur 6 cleared the events of the first SC. Kilik defeated Nightmare and Xianghua and Kilik indeed teamed up to defeat Inferno. About Zas and Abyss, yes, it is canon that Zas became Abyss and Siegfried and Nightmare together defeated him, reverting Abyss back to Zasalamel.

[@deathxul777]

Ivy. Her story is more compelling. Also great video. I love this series.

[@SeventhheavenDK]

Her story is boring.

[@rgh1132]

Fuck yeah to that Periphery outro.

[@justbigstepbro9167]

Thank you

[@warrioroflight8329]

Siegfried is one of my favorite characters in fiction, so thank you for this. Although your pronounciation of some names needs some work, for example its So-phi-ti-a not Sophit-a, but otherwise great video!

[@felipe180288]

Great video about my main in all Soul Blade/Calibur but i have one question about the part of Soul Calibur 3 where did you find the info about Siegfried and nightmare vs Abyss? i mean i always thought that Night terror would fit in all of that.... anyway great video

[@SeventhheavenDK]

Officially, I dont know where it is, but the wiki has it, too.

[@kirbymarchbarcena]

Well,knowing that he killed his father at the end will surely drive him mad and grieve.

[@richardofredemption]

@hbtw can you do an analysis on god of war? specifically the transition from greek to norse mythology. theirs a lot of information you can definitely find out with your skills.

[@TheKingtutt01]

Why would you say the plan to find patroklos backfire? He and Pyrrha got rid of Soul Edge, And ended all the madness and suffering it would bring. Sure he had to get rid of Soul Calibur as well to do it. But it would be surely worth it.

I know, right? Maybe he would've found some random unlucky bloke to blame it on, kill them, then go on with his life without ever realizing his error.

i waa hoping to see why Siegfried survived soul calibur 4, but ig not. i mean soul calibur was keeping him alive, so when he killed nightmare, he should have died to right?
