[@sloth6962]

Thanks for highlighting the just frame stuff. Even though I know there are legit folks making this game, it's still reassuring to see how they're baking depth into these characters

[@doogies]

It's hard to explain, but basically the first hit of the rekka ACTIVATES the tentacle, so you have to manually time/delay the second hit to hit it. Hard timing to describe without technical knowledge

[@brianbonn5733]

Damn, M.O got covid to show us Illoa tech. Props big dawg

[@HipH0pSamurai]

They are doing such a great job translating the ingame abilities into fighting game form. Really hope they put my mains in there (diana, thresh, jhin, asol)

[@doogies]

yeah thats whats gonna be fun about seeing the new chars- how they implement the kits

Anyone know what all of Illaoi's Special inputs are, or where to find an image or explanation of them?

[@NurseLee]

Awesome! Thanks for the cool breakdown! take care!

[@doogies]

Thanks for watching!

[@eduardoserpa1682]

06:59 It seems you were right, judging by the gameplay showcase. It looks like she has some kind of command grab for opponents turtling on top of a tentacle. I have no intention of playing neutral with her, but everything else seems a lot of fun if I can fit her into a team.

[@doogies]

its the tentacle grab

[@yupjuliansje]

Awesome to see illaoi, i was curious about how she plays since she looks like a heavy with some zoning bullshit. Keep up the good work !

[@Ketsuekisan]

She looks so cool. I'd love to see what she can do with Darius, who's the other character I'm really interested in. The chip damage is probably crazy when you get his debuff going.

[@BlahNetworkBro]

Is that an Acevane reference?! Seaman?! I ain’t playin this fuckass riot game but I had to click for that

[@doogies]

i wanted to put black manta too lol

[@missing_score]

that jumping C reminds me of hulk's jumping S aesthetically at least

[@doogies]

i wish it had the armor on full charge!

"Playing longterm"? Sure Obama, whatever you say Obama

[@doogies]

weird comment

[@AuntBibby]

the guy with the space marine shoulders looks simpler than illaoi so i might use him instead. but they both look cool

[@niwona_]

Do they have dedicated French Bread players on the team? Outside of the obvious team game comparisons, there's a lot of UNI-inspired feel to things the more gameplay I see imo

[@ZzigZaG00NIN]

What a great choice for character She looks amazing

[@JusticeAngel]

Does she have the grip?

[@doogies]

gorilla grip

[@rinkujoka232]

So uncle obama... We wait for thomas (tahm kench) to do stupid big body combos? Also did they changed the meter system? It used to be slower to gain meters from previous clips.. Now its kinda abit faster

[@doogies]

tahm....come home

[@evilded2]

It's like this character was made for me.

[@garethcf1016]

Can someone translate what aquaman said in the thumbnail? All i saw were gurgles

[@justinsanchez8918]

Wow on paper this character scares me. But I can't to wait to lab the shit out of this game to beat some of this stuff

[@brokenwing51]

you know, I think she should have her soul steal move, I think it would be sick to grab your opponents soul and kinda just start whacking at it while your opponent tries to stop it from hitting them, either as a super or something because it is one of her more iconic moves and you should try to incorporate iconic moves somehow in games like these

[@Ketsuekisan]

If you watch the new trailer that just dropped, they show her ult, and she drags their soul down to meet Nagakabouros.

[@quickie17]

Well she don't this kit is fine

[@Jay-mx5ky]

The game designer for her said she really wanted to put that in, but it probably wouldn't be fun for the opponent.

[@evilded2]

Do the tentacles only effect grounded opponents?

[@doogies]

Tentacle grab is only grounded obviously, but no, the attacks can hit aerial opponents. If it's on wakeup and they are holding up they cleared it though, so you need an assist or buttons to lock them down

it feels good seeing devs putting some respect on your passion. it’s not charity, they know you have what it takes to make a game better

[@doogies]

appreciate ya

[@Ketsuekisan]

You might not say it, but I will: she needs armor AND a command grab. They would really fit her whole "always keep moving forward/never stand still" thing to be able to keep swinging through a hit and/or punish opponents for standing there and blocking.

[@doogies]

....how do you know lmao. Dont be so heavy handed with your opinion on a game or char you have NOT played....

[@Ketsuekisan]

I just want to watch the world burn, tbh. I am surprised they didn't give her either of those because of how they tie in to her personality, but she still seems like a lot of fun, and I'm really looking forward to trying her out at some point. Not at Evo Japan, sadly, because I can't afford the trip right now.

[@Jay-mx5ky]

One of her tentacle attacks seem to have a command grab attached. Check the rooflemonger video on the blockstring against Yasuo.

[@thejunkmanlives]

0:56 i know the number notation was invented to try to simplify things but ive always hated it. when you say 3C it assumes 1p side, but when you say down forward C im good regardless of orientation. but i guess were stuck with 123 whatever now.

[@doogies]

...its not that hard man

[@nahuel3433]

but... it's the same thing? 3 is down forward. And pretty much all of combo notation assumed you were on p1 since forever. From the arrows to the ones that show the stick doing a quarter circle or something.

[@thejunkmanlives]

@@nahuel3433 do you think all of these new lol players know that p1 has been the default since 92? when you instruct you need to be as clear as possible. forward back up and down are clear directions in regards to you and your opponent. 123456 assumes knowledge that brand new people most likely wont have. plus, writing DF>Jab or QCF>Punch is not many more characters but its way more descriptive.

[@nahuel3433]

@@thejunkmanlives These new lol players can learn something that even early players of the genre could grasp quickly. There are a billion more things a tag fighter like this one has that are way harder to learn. QCF both also does not cross language barriers and requires you to know exactly what it means, which is more of a problem with unconventional stuff like tiger knees. It's also not as intuitive as you think. What does "forward" mean. Where my character is facing? My forward aka up? I started on right side my forward was going left, then does it remain that way? New players will have difficulty with all of these things, they'll have to learn regardless of what method they use. And your "descriptive method" invites some unneded messiness. DF Jab? What if the animation of my character isn't a jab? WTF do I press?

[@thejunkmanlives]

@@nahuel3433 directions and buttons arent difficult. and if you cant figure out forward in relation to a fighting game we have bigger problems. why would a language barrier matter? really. the joke is, in sf4 it was directions and a button all over srk.

[@TehShooterx]

Riot really doesn't fuck around with their games. Got good hopes for this game

[@libertarianvoter]

It's so nice to see a fighting game dev decide not to stink up the genre with yet another game where the characters are animated at 8 or 12 fps. Hopefully this opens the door for others to realize that that choppy trash doesn't need to be in EVERY anime game and instead use this style of smooth fluid animation.

[@kosiskarki8742]

But this isnt an anime game

[@BlackMageLozi]

It's stupid that people know the name of the character more than the name of the game. You have to make us listen to Obama, make them change the shitty name, let them know every time they invite you haha.
