Cannons Core A Rank Tips and Tricks! | Sonic Adventure 2

[@PrimeSonic]

I totally forgot about the score checkpoints. Good tip! And that de-spawning time-stop trick is brilliant.

[@genemelendez368]

The S’mores Pop-Tarts were always my favorite growing up

[@themenacingsloth]

They're the best ones, don't let nobody tell you otherwise

[@ak47dragunov]

The permanent time freeze trick in Sonic's section is crazy. Just when I thought I knew everything about this game, someone teaches me something new. Good stuff

[@EpicDuskk]

This game is full of surprises.

[@prod.learnnx]

The ending is so wholesome 😂🥺💓

[@EpicDuskk]

I love her very much ❤️

[@Accrovideogames]

@@EpicDuskk It reminds me of my cat. When you love someone, hearing them snore reminds you of how much you love them.

[@emanchi8403]

5:11 this part was the bane of my existence doing no-hit runs, I had no idea you could just run past them!

[@Talonflamez]

I really was about to give up with A ranking these. Thanks man

[@wanderlustwarrior]

I haven't had a pop tart in so long, but Toaster Strudels are amazing.

[@joeboosta6309]

I've been trying this, and failing, so thanks for the trick that if you manage to get behind those artifical chaos they won't attack you because 1 time I got to that part with a good amount of rings but lost the them by being attacked and got totally frustrated. I didn't think that there was any way to avoid being hit by those enemies and that you just had to be a really skilled player to avoid them from attacking you while destroying them from the front which has been completely impossible for me so-far. I just kept giving up on that mission and have been stuck with an E rank for the first mission. So thanks for the tips and tricks info, I hope that I can do better on any of these cannon's core missions the next time I try that.

[@cjetson]

Crazy timing, I just A-ranked the 100 ring mission earlier today. I took damage in Eggman's section with the two artificial Chaos, but I was able to make it up in Rouge's section with plenty of time. And cinnamon Pop-Tarts are undefeated.

[@qvcybe]

watching the video in style **web zips to vid**

[@EpicDuskk]

Lmfao the web slinging

[@qvcybe]

@@EpicDuskk glad you like it i shall enter all the streams from now on with web zips XD

[@AaronKyle1996]

Brown Sugar & Cinnamon Pop-Tarts toasted/microwaved are S-Tier.

[@EpicDuskk]

MICROWAVED?!

[@AaronKyle1996]

Sometimes you're when in a rush you've gotta make due. 😅 (Preferably toasted)

[@turboqueer666]

What an awesome video explaining stuff we didn't know! Thanks for these tips. Would you be willing to do one for Radical Highway? I've had issues with the time limit mission on that one since I was a kiddo.

[@EpicDuskk]

Ill do one for Radical Highway!

[@proceededspy1370]

I have been using the Magic hands for that Artifiical chaos for years because that jump killed me way too many times. Finally the Hands did SOMETHING! I also found out about the permanent times stop my accident, at first I thought i broke the game but when it happend a second time i thought it must be a feature.

[@EpicDuskk]

Magic hands are so useful, they are underappreciated for real

[@yousefslimani99]

As a kid I never managed to beat this stage cuz it’s stupidly hard and then 5 years later I revisit the game I finally managed to beat it! The hardest stage in the game NGL

[@BigRig97]

Definitely need to see an Epic Duskk speedrun of SA2.

[@EpicDuskk]

Maybe I will attempt one. Idk, I've never speedran a game, but it could be fun. I probably wanna finish all the mods and a rank guides first though. If I ever reach a point where I have no other content ideas, then perhaps ill get into speedrunning, and I can make content around that

[@UltraSTH]

One strat I came up with for the Artificial Chaos enemies is locking on to them, walking behind them, and shooting the moment they reveal their heads

[@UltraSTH]

Lmao never mind, you mentioned that for Eggman

[@SpiritBuddy]

That's crazy. I just raided you on twitch. Did not know you had a YT channel!

[@EpicDuskk]

I do! I make tons of Sonic Adventure videos. I dabble with some other games too. Thank you for the Twitch Raid!

[@ReginaldCosmic]

That time limit mission with Rouge, please. What was it? Security Hall? In my most recent (albeit yet incomplete) playthrough of the game, I actually got an A rank on that level unexpectedly, but I have no idea how to do Mission 2. I'll share this useless information about myself too (for anyone who cares) I never got Shadow's Mystic Melody or Shadow's Flame Ring as a child, and I never found the upgrade for the light speed attack. (I did get Sonic's Magic Hands and Knux's sunglasses and Rouge's Scouter.)

[@EpicDuskk]

I can cover Security Hall soon! That one is pretty tricky for alot of people.

[@TailsPrower07]

Also worth noting, rings can be *very* crucial if you didn't do so hot in the mech areas for the the point based missions Ended the level with 300 rings and had a score of 29,150, so 300 coming from the rings (and the ones I collected during the mech areas where I was getting smacked around, finished the hunters and Sonic without getting hit). The water slide at the end has a lot of rings you can pick up (just don't get stuck on the first drop on the slide like I did, but he'll eventually drown even if you do get stuck there) Also Cinnamon Roll Pop-Parts are superior

[@Theplushyshow69]

Thank you so much this is going to help me a lot. Thank you so much man.

[@ChikaJihyo]

AWWWW THE ENDING IS ADORABLE OMG

[@EpicDuskk]

The fact that I was able to time her snores lmao.

[@PrimeSonic]

@@EpicDuskkI'm just impressed that you managed to record your lines without waking her up!

[@Icedragon01234]

Pop tart flavors huh? Remember that goofy mystery flavored one? I swear it tasted like ravioli or some pasta

[@EpicDuskk]

I dont remember a mystery flavor, but that sounds awful lol

[@ZackeryThomasFilms]

I always think a out the wild Berry pop tarts but I love me the classic chocolate ship

[@That_Kasual_Gamer]

Can you do this but for sonic heroes? I struggle with getting A ranks as I don’t know how to get an A rank. Thanks

[@EpicDuskk]

Im not really as knowledgeable about heros tbh. Im not against getting into it though, but I wanna finish this series first before jumping into a new one at least

[@blueeyesmew]

I sadly don't have much experience with Pop Tarts. Also could you please do an A rank guide on Pyramid Cave?

[@EpicDuskk]

Im gonna try to do one for every stage!

[@JenSpinsSGP]

I really like the blueberry and the s’mores pop tarts

[@bobbob1876]

Can you do one for the debug test level? I don't think anyone has completed it without cheating!

[@alucardavathorn8930]

You should do a video where you find every instance of big the cat hidden in the levels.

[@buttermanofficial739]

great video, will you ever do a video on final rush

[@EpicDuskk]

Yeah im planning on doing one for every level.

[@buttermanofficial739]

Thank you 🙏

[@javiervasquez2942]

Can you do either Mission Street or Prison Lane?

[@dylanaruto20]

Important! If you die by falling to your death, it will restart the ENTIRE level!!

[@EpicDuskk]

Pretty sure thats only mission 4. I probably should have mentioned that

[@dylanaruto20]

@@EpicDuskk ok I thought so, I got so mad when it happened. Oh well, now I have all A’s in Cannon’s Core.

[@EpicDuskk]

@@dylanaruto20 yeah I should have mentioned it, I overlooked it because in every level Mission 4 has no checkpoints, you always restart when you die

[@dylanaruto20]

@@EpicDuskk you’d think the character change would mark a checkpoint

[@turboqueer666]

First! Like a TRUE fan!

[@EpicDuskk]

Real gamer hours 😎

[@BigRig97]

Funny to see you here

[@drinks_menu]

The Character checkpoints don't work for mission 4. If you die you start back at tails.

[@EpicDuskk]

@@drinks_menu Well checkpoints dont work in any mission 4 so I think thats obvious

OK on this bs level during the Knuckles segment do the clip through walls to save time. It helped me in every mission but do the consistent glitch through wall glitch. He mentioned it but you go on the wall by climbing slightly to the left of the black paint streak on the wall in the clip and climb down into it.

[@EpicDuskk]

I never thought to try climbing the wall to make it easier. Thats a good tip

​@@EpicDuskkit's the one speed runners do.

[@sonicriders.7]

I tried the banana pop tart flavor recently it’s not too had

[@twitch.tvnateiiig]

I remember 10 year old kid me having a mini stroke trying to beat the knuckles level with no air necklace it’s possible but took me a lifetime 20+ lives I was stubborn 😂

I did it with Amy before, imagine how difficult THAT is lmao

@@EpicDuskk yeah I’m glad I kno the game better than back then 😂 and I can only imagine how difficult 😱 but anyways love the vids been watching them for bout 6 months now I always get a chuckle at you trying to beat stages with all the different characters and how you try to tackle the obstacles faced with each of there different skill set !

[@Cainb23]

Why do people even need CC A rank tips, just recently fulfilled my all time gaming dream of unlocking green hill in SA2 and CC was the easiest of all to all A rank.. got to sonics part in hard mode and died I was so mad I was about to throw my controller but then I realized your points don’t go away in CC between characters… so that makes it the easiest level in the game by far to A rank.

[@Cainb23]

Though 100 ring wasn’t the easiest, still got it second try and was WAY easier than you would think. All the other ones are a breeze, if you’re reading this and don’t think you can do it, I promise you you DEFINITELY can. Unless you are absolute trash at the game you can definitely do it. And if you were that bad you wouldn’t even be considering trying it anyway.

[@EpicDuskk]

People have different skill levels and difficulty is subjective. Theres also alot of cool tricks to talk about. Humble yourself
