Tyr, the God of War for millenia within the Norse Realm was a pivotal figure within the story of Kratos and Atreus; while the Tyr we grew to know during the events of Ragnarok was a farce, a cruel trick played by Odin, Tyr was still out there. After defeating Odin, Kratos and Freya made their way to Niflheim where they discovered that Tyr was still alive and had been imprisoned by his father as Odin could not take the shape of Tyr if the God of War was dead.
Being the son of Odin and the brother of Thor, Heimdall and Baldur, of course Tyr would be powerful. After all, each one of his brothers and his father could go toe to toe with the mighty Kratos; however, we never really got to see Tyr at his full strength. Despite being the God of War and seemingly the perfect candidate to battle the God of War of another Pantheon, Tyr was actually a pacifist who used his incredible power to broker peace between the realms instead of forcing them to bend the knee to Odin.

Same! Tyr is one of the most interesting characters in the entire series

[@shadowdan1177]

It makes sense even in their respective mythological roles. Ares was always more of a man child who lived under the shadow of his sister Athena and thus was pretty cruel, impulsive and even hated by most Greeks. Tyr on the other hand was always viewed as a more Nobel and Just God of war that was as good with his spear as he was with his words.

Tyr says he's not holding back but everytime Kratos beats him, Tyr blocks his punch. That is a good indicator he isn't going full out. I was under the assumption Kratos was pulling punches as well since he didn't see Tyr as an enemy.

[@davinator968]

Kratos had to be holding back during his fights with Tyr. He certainly didn’t want to actually hurt him.

[@deswood5760]

Then again tyr pushes him close to that edge of fighting when you see the back draft of kratos punch the same way he did thor but he knows when to stop himself

[@warallied]

He's not holding back when it comes to purpose. but you literally see him power up 4 times while using different powers that he didnt use prior. He is playing the part of a teacher after all. Its hard to say the extent of Kratos holding back or not (he obviously dont fight to kill per se) but since we're the PoV and we're mashing the same buttons - its fair to say that Tyr is far more stronger than he's letting on - specially considering his experience and prowess. while on the ground - he instantly stops a god breaker punch from Kratos when he's supposed to be beaten and disoriented. I think he should be equal to Kratos. Nothing more, nothing less.

[@ArmoredG]

[@commando414]

I honestly would not consider Tyr to be a pacifist. I would see him as a fighter for peace for he litteraly fought for peace and he mastered his mind, body, and soul to be that person Tyr was, and was willing to pass it on to Kratos since understandably, Tyr considered Kratos to be the perfect candidate to be the next God of War for Norse gods since despite Kratos' flaws, he has become a better person and has been needing some wisdom and guidance for so long, and though Mimir helped, Tyr will be able to truly make Kratos into the perfect successor as the god of Peace.

I always hate that modern pascifism is characterized as a refusal to fight. It should be a philosophy of violence only as a last resort. Tyr's reflective and meditative ways exemplify this trait. He is in complete control at all times. Only relentless force could stop him, yet if he can win a fight without drawing a weapon he would.

I'd really like to see how Tyr and Odin interacted. They're father and son, hell Odin even impersonates him most of the game, yet they feel so distant from each other. There could be a god-Tyr story of disillusionment and betrayal it they depicted what led up to Tyr's imprisonment, and how Tyr managed to maintain his moral character through all his suffering and being surrounded by sadistic narcissists. What positive influences did he have in Asgard? Was there a little part of him that still loved his father?

If Thor is a 10/10 in strength, Týr is 9,5 & Odin at 9,25 or 9. Edit: Thor HAS a varied moveset, it's just that the game does a bad job showing it. But he STILL only has one weapon that can only control one element. Also in his 2nd & last fight against Kratos he gets dealt with easily cause: 1) we was poisoned & 2) Kratos has a better arsenal (3 weapons > 1, logical) with the Blades of Chaos being more powerful than Mjolnir

Also, I still keep some restraints on the assumption of Freya being the equal of Kratos. I know there's some statement that would go that way but her actual feats in game are clearly not helping to prove that (but I still think she's very close to Kratos level, just not being equal to him like other norse gods are).

Two issue with the things you said 1) Thor wasnt anywhere near his peak since he was mentally depressed, defeated, doubted what he was doing and was passed out drunk a chapter ago so I doubt he was in his peak condition physically as well. Both mental and physical aspect play a part in how powerful a character is so the second fight between Kratos and Thor isnt as lopsided as you made it out to be. 2) Freya tried for 3 years straight to kill Kratos. If she was really his equal, she would have succeeded by now because Kratos was holding back and had no wish to harm her. Doesn't make sense for them to be equal.

[@KeyIssues]

1. I’m talking about the Thor we see in the games not some hypothetical version. 2. The writers and developers said it multiple times. Kratos was holding back not to kill her but wasn’t holding back to keep himself alive.

[@austinwinston1231]

@@KeyIssues 1) He wasn't as powerful as he was in the first fight in any case. He was dead drunk a chapter ago. 2) It takes a lot of effort to fight someone who is as powerful as you and to restrain and stop them but not hurt them. I don't know if you do any martial art or combat sport but when someone is coming to you with the intent to hurt, if you aren't much more skill or powerful than them, there isn't legit anyway to hold them back from hurting you without hurting them back. Kratos has to be more skill or more powerful to always beat Freya in every encounter and not put permanent harm on her. If Freya won even a single encounter, he would be dead. So Kratos won for 3 years straight. Can we really say they are equal?

The subtle shift in weight line actually has relevance to kratos first fight with thor when the 2 are pushing on mjolnir in opposing directions and when kratos appears to be overpowering thor he shift his weight that hes putting toward kratos quickly to catch him off balance and strike him all in the matter of a couple seconds

[@Sunsp0t_Lu]

Odin would have likely have had to send Thor, Baldur, and a crap ton of fodder aesir and monsters, and whichever Valkyrie were absolutely loyal to all father.

Tyr went toe to toe with Kratos while being out of shape too.

True!

[@thatonemf7081]

you said freya is an equal to kratos, any proof?@@KeyIssues

[@Chad-Kratos-jf8zy]

​ @thatonemf7081 she isn't they showed the statement from the artbook, which is a mis representation the statement only said they are "equal in relevant metrics" and god knows what those relevant metrics are, Kratos is more of a strength and skill build, Freya is more of witchcraft build. So what "relevant metrics" are they talking about experience? maybe, battle IQ maybe? Who knows.. But the rest aren't. We all fall into the trap of understanding the statements incorrectly and misrepresent them

[@MaiconDouglas-ik6qs]

The journey of Kratos comes full circle when it comes to his training. He learned a lot as a Spartan, and then From Ares. Now he learned from Tyr!

I asked you this when Ragnarok came out but in your previous God of war video you said that you would like to do the Greek gods vs the Norse gods was wondering if you’re still planning on doing that?

[@KeyIssues]

ummmm

[@vlad_47]

Greek Gods are clearly more powerful. Remind who and what Kratos is again? The OG series and its 2 Novels, depict the Olympians like in mythology but on steroids, while the norse soft reboot just isnt the same. What Thor + Jörmungandr did, suppossedly shaking the realms in the past, Ares alone did with his casual battle roars. While Zeus and Poseidon roars trembled the entire infinite creation.

This was a good video all tho I will say it is noteworthy in the cutscenes of the fights kratos is not using rage which we know significantly amps him so it gets weird we claim someone is his =

It would've been nice to see kratos and Tyr fighting alongside eachother in ragnarok

Maybe in the next one

[@dustedjotaro3078]

Find it funny how Kratos and Tyr use a bunch of different weapons as a whole kinda makes me think other God of Wars are geeks for weapons

[@astro_moss]

Awesome video! My worry is that they made Odin and Tyr a bit too powerful. If Kratos can beat them, then what god would be able to rival him in future games?

[@KeyIssues]

Can always weaken Kratos or give other gods crazy power. I personally think that the next game with focus on Atreus, not Kratos!

[@Blake2X4]

Odin was stronger than Kratos Kratos was rivaling Thor more than any other The hierarchy of the Norse saga is basically this: Ragnarok Odin Thor Heimdall Freya Tyr Faye Baldur Magni=Modi Honorable mention: Freyr, Surtr and Sinmara are featsless so we don’t know how powerful they are

[@ravenpapa27]

I think the point is that Kratos had to train harder, push himself further, take on help, anything to be able to beat them. Especially with Tyr, he really had to push himself to be what Tyr is to be able to come close to beating him.

[@Blake2X4]

@@ravenpapa27 totally, every Norse god excels in a fighting aspect and their is definitely no one as skilled in combat as Tyr Thor and Odin are just powerful in raw strength/power respectively while Gods like Heimdall or Baldur are unbeatable due to hax

[@vlad_47]

What are you on about? If we are keeping it real none of the norse gods reached the feats and devinity displayed by just Ares alone.

[@gurburgandr]

I’d like to bring up something relative to thors second fight and what gives tyr the edge above other Aesir And that’s his arsenal, against heimdall nothing could stun him except draupnir, and thor only fought with one weapon that had a faulty handle I think what makes tyr the strongest is he can fight in 4 different ways and switch up his approach really fast, against thor and heimdall kratos had to master his body and mind separately, however against tyr, he had to do both

[@nalanhazzard]

Happy we finally got tyr in action agree tyr is the 2nd strongest norse god in gow

I’m pretty sure that the spear and shield Tyr uses is his own, based on the statues of him in game

Tyr’s biggest power play is casual stopping Kratos’ haymaker casually and then being like “aight lil bro I give”😂 Like bro I’m not letting end the fade like that, run it back

[@joekekker1581]

Tyr summoning a centaur mid final fight was the ultimate pisstake

[@creeperman1295]

Something smaller in terms of Tyr's strength is that if you die earlier on in the journey and talk to Sigrun, she mentions how it's impressive how strong he is given his years in captivity. At least to me this implies that Tyr himself was getting stronger and back into his 'A-game' so to speak as he fought Kratos and he progressed through his Valhalla journey.

[@CarlosSanchez-ip1vs]

Overpowered as hell, the dude kicked my ass more times than I care to count, and yet he's so nice that I can't hate him 😅

[@krogymania4946]

To be fair in their second battle thor is drunk and most importantly was just done fighting the world serpent ! Before moving straight to Kratos

[@corujadeficiente2865]

I would like to share something interesting that i noticed about Tyr. First of all I'm Brazilian, and honestly I'm writing this from Google translate, so I'm not sure of the quality of my writing. It's about the meaning of Tyr's weapons, the first weapon he shows is a spear and a shield, this is Tyr conventional weapon's, due to the fact that it has his runic symbol. The tyr second weapon is a Macuahuitl,an Aztec weapon used mainly by the god of war and death Tezcatlipoca. Tyr third weapon is a pair of Khopesh, a characteristic weapon of the god Anubis, god of death and the underworld. And the tyr's last weapon is a katana,a weapon used mainly by Shinigami's in Japanese mythology. All three of the tyr weapons have to do with a God of death, the only one that breaks the line is his own weapon. But in fact, when you analyze the symbol that tyr uses on his shield you notice that one of the symbols it carries is that of sacrifice... I don't know what this could mean, but this is clearly no coincidence.

[@itsthatmusic4me]

Starting to think tyr was apart of getting kratos to the Norse realm he had help doing due to being inpriosned and being in prison is because he was caught doing it so he himself couldn't do it so he asked another person to carry it out

[@EKPB]

At this point I want a standalone game for Tyr

[@Nomad_theElder]

@KeyIssues do u know why the mcu nerfs there Asgardian gods like Odin Thor Loki and so on in the new what if ep I have the feeling they nerfed Odin pls tell me I am wrong I don't want to lose hope in the mcu Asgardian gods I only like godly characters pls I need your help

[@Kratos176]

Tyr is op almost managed to get him on mastery but he took me out the part when you are blind and gotta stay in the rings is just insane

[@KeyIssues]

You’ll get him

[@GraveEnd]

Tyr is pretty dope ngl

[@abhikergaming7783]

I personally believe (now that I mostly beaten valhalla dlc) that in my Opinion Tyr could beat Odin in a fight if the battle in question would be a 1v1

[@rigen97]

I don't think you can really scale Tyr against Odin's feat of slaying Ymir. Slaying Ymir was a metaphysically significant feat, but there wasn't anything indicating that Ymir itself wielded the sum of power that would later be transformed into the Yggdrasil and the nine realms. if you spontaneously convert a human body into energy, the explosion in accordance to E=mc^2 would be beyond anything that ever happened on Earth. but that doesn't mean that the human could wield all that power while alive.

[@Yumiiyumi-]

Do a video on Atreus I don’t think people realize how powerful he will be when he becomes an adult 😅

[@KeyIssues]

I should!

[@thecalamithy7497]

For now he just can turn into big animal that's all, he's powerful but not as powerful average god in god of war yet

[@DerangedIntellectual9]

I think Tyr’s natural pacifism makes him hide a lot of his true power, as in he’s showing a lot less than what he’s actually got goin on. In Valhalla after every spar with Kratos he singlehandedly and effortlessly catches Kratos’ punches without looking. He doesn’t keep fighting cuz he sees Kratos is ready, and obviously as his friend, it’s just a sparring match. A full on all out fight between Kratos and Tyr would shake the entire world for sure.

[@sametkeceli5642]

I think in terms of power and beating other Aesir Pantheons there are some significant facfors. Although Tyr wandered other realms and gain power and traits with charms and so, I have doubts about Tyr's main charachteristics of His godhood. What I mean is, Kratos has his Spartan Rage and it might be the most powerful feature a God could ever have probably. It is not like the Kratos' Spartan Rage but Odin's most distinctive trait is his hunger for knowledge and that is the reason for his endgame power in Ragnarok and that is the reason why He could take under all other pantheons in his command and prisoned Tyr and if we look at lore we can see that Odin didn't go toes to toe with Tyr and fight with him.instead he used manipulation and mind games just as I said it these might be thr Odin's "Spartan Rage". And when we look at the Tyr his "Spartan Rage" is his love and respect for realms, cultures and life of beings in general and his excessive demand for peace and prosperity. Or these things also could be just his some characteristics and what makes Tyr special is the ability to defy his nature as God of War and rejecting become a war and death hunger monster such as Ares once was. The last probability is all these things are not his special feature of godhood as well and We have not seen his "Spartan Rage" yet. This is not a strong possibilty but it is nice to think in my opinion. Tyr character in this franchise gave us so much surprise and I would like to see its some secret aspects or "I wouldn't want to harm you so I didn't show this." Or something like that.

[@tomhaas7078]

I wouldn't mind a prequel game starring Tyr and his journeys to other pantheons alluding to where Kratos will go in the future eventually ending with him being imprisoned by Odin.

[@thedarkknight727]

Tyr is a Final Fantasy: 14, player. Able to switch between weapons and classes on the fly. 😎

[@wukongisas9564]

The fact that Tyr faces a non holding back Kratos when a bloodlusted Thor got beat by him and this Kratos is stronger, yeah that's insane

[@person3405]

Will you do more god of war videos?

[@twistedvtuber9894]

I would actually put Týr and Thor as being on par with one another. It's important to note that the entire time he's in Valhalla, Kratos is having a mental nerf, after not having Atreus around to rally him to be his best (he did say he will keep Atreus in his heart, but I don't think he's fully gotten used to his absence yet), and his struggles being confronted by his past. With Atreus around, Kratos was largely able to suppress his demons from his past, as we see in the base game, when Atreus is in Asgard, Kratos starts to fall apart and regress somewhat, reaching borderline Ghost of Sparta levels when fighting Heimdall. Due to this mental nerf, I think he isn't fighting on the same level he was during Ragnarök during his first few fights, and is slowly working up to being on his Ragnarok level after working through his trauma. Kratos may have gotten moderately stronger and more skilled, but it was more about his mental stability rather than any real combat training
