Dual Blades DEFLECT vs EVERYTHING - THE FINALS Season 3

In this video we will try every single interaction that you can think of involving the Dual Blades’ deflect ability. Stick until the end to see how we used our new knowledge of the Dual Blades to push the game to its absolute limits!
Shoutout to Povich, ‪@THiiXY‬, Marshy, Retrospect, Molo, Dev, Fish and JumanCreative who all helped me record some interactions and the infinite deflect!
Shoutout to Provoxin for their awesome BO2 Tool Assisted Trickshot footage! I love them! (and the clips too)

[@Randen-Re1.]

only coviant, its a deflect not a parry so you'll take that 80% reduced damage.

[@Randen-Re1.]

thinking now embark should make it so regular melee attacks can block all damage.

[@kotaar8535]

@@Randen-Re1.they needa do some typa buff whether it be removing dash cooldown or extending the dash length or reducing deflect damage taken or something

[@ThatExplo]

Minor mistake: You CAN actually BLOCK the defib, although it doesn't get reflected. In your video the block failed because they were aiming at your feet instead of your body. Loved the Hydrogen collider at 6:20

[@Jinko_]

Pretty sure it's a discrepancy between FP and TP animations, but you could be right. Another explanation is what I talk about at the start of the video: deflect sometimes just don't work. And because of this, I should have tried the defib more than once... Thanks for the heads up!

That was sooooo fun to watch

[@mohammadalkhani6714]

As an average player im destroying in every match i play in with the dual blades. Literally 9/10 matches im winning. The last game i played i joined the match late with the other team seconds away from finishing power shift, but i ziplined to the platform and then killed everyone. Then for the entire match i completely carried my team who was seconds away from losing to victory. The dual blades are crack once you learn how to use them.

[@maymayman0]

*on power shift

[@Zlittlepenguin]

@@maymayman0 yeah I’m not really a fan of them on other modes lol I haven’t tried it on power shift, but it’s pretty difficult to get close to anyone in TA and cashout. Although I don’t think the Kyoto map is particularly suitable for melee in general 😅

[@mohammadalkhani6714]

@@maymayman0 i mainly play power shift and bank it which have simpler objectives so its easy to just run around racking up kills while still helping out your team, but i have done pretty decent in cashout as well. I do usually use a famas in cashout tho. TA idgaf i hate tht mode lol.

[@mohammadalkhani6714]

@@Zlittlepenguin kyoto for any mode other than power shift the dual blades are horrible. The map is too open for you to use any melee weapons in general unless ure really good. But every other map ive been doing pretty good w dual blade. You should use them on power shift tho. Any map including kyoto the dual blades are cracked. Im averaging like 10 kills nd 3 deaths all while focusing on the objective.

[@Zlittlepenguin]

@@mohammadalkhani6714 I don’t generally like power shift tbh unless I’ve got some challenges I have to do for it, and unfortunately with the ranked changes I’m kind of glued to world tour and TA at the moment 😅 but we have like 100 days left, I’m sure I’ll play it eventually

[@AmazingSeek]

I love the dual blades but it needs a buff

[@mohammadalkhani6714]

Hell no theyre absolutely cracked already. Just learn how to use them nd theyre op. Especially on power shift.

[@Jinko_]

@@Jinko_ im personally not tht good with the riot shield but w the dual blades ive been racking up kills and have a low death count as well

[@pepacrow6794]

@mohammadalkhani6714 Brother, they are super weak The deflect cone is very tragic, and the angle it has is laughable. Literally shooting at your feet deletes your blades and well the fact that you cant cancel an attack into a parry is very very bad Buffs can be done without tweaking numbers

[@mohammadalkhani6714]

@@pepacrow6794 ig most players are stupid lol cause ive killed too many ppl by deflecting their own bullets at them😂 maybe when the majority of the players get used to them they wont be as good, but for now im winning way too many games nd getting more kills than i usually do. Im a pretty average player to.

Glad you liked it! As for the bow, it’s quite straightforward so I don’t think I will be making a video dedicated to it anytime soon. But surely other people have posted guides on it!

[@ItsSylviiOnTwitch]

@Jinko_ Makes sense! I've been trying to get back into the game since I hadnt played since April so, just need to get used to everything again

[@Solcres_Joa]

Nice vid, very informative. As I understand it ( non interactions being considered) the deflect is more of a cone of probability type of thing, and the closer you are the more likely it is to work. The rest is just 80% dmg reduction. Which is nice but shouldn't to be abused without ample caution.

[@Jinko_]

Yes, a cone like other guns when not aiming down sight

[@ellisfleming9972]

I’m pretty sure the damage reflection is variable based on where your cross hair is. If you’re deflecting at the edge of its range you’ll deflect only about 40% damage

[@Jinko_]

Never heard of that, would be a good thing to test!

[@E-Patrik]

Very useful

[@Executioner_Sama]

best the finals youtuber is back! pls make a advanced video about the riot shield too

[@terminxd5785]

Hey there great video! Just wanted to point out that you forgot about the taser, from what i have experienced it can be deflected but actually deals damage when deflected for some reason it is rly weird at the moment. Got oneshot by my own taser a couple of days ago

[@Jinko_]

We did test it since I show stun has no effect, but I did leave out the part where I block as I get tased. Cqn't deflect it!

Great video, man, new sub, but I still don’t understand something, with the arrows you said that it won’t always reflect, so how did you do the infinite reflect?

[@Jinko_]

Thanks for the sub! It doesn't always deflect but it's a bug that I cannot explain. When it does deflect, then there is no problem and it can keep deflecting forever in this setup.

How big is the blocking hitbox? Can you take damage when getting shot in the feet while blocking for example?

[@Sweep7000]

OK I have follow up questions; at the start of the video you say that sometimes the deflections don't work? If sometimes the deflections do not work then surely infinite deflections would not be possible because eventually one of them would fail?

[@Jinko_]

I can't explain this bug either... But yeah sometimes you deflect and nothing is sent back. We did have more trouble in some private games than others due to it.

[@m.haikal8598]

Genji been real quiet since this shit dropped

[@de-ment]

but how loose can I be with my deflects or the angle I aim them in? is it like the riot shield where it blocks essentially nothing and covers like my forearm and not much else? Do I deflect when I'm supposed to be shot or is there a hitbox for it? ykno is it like a deflecto-gel smothered on the front of my character or is it like a parry like dark souls or tf2's airblast just without the timing aspect. hey talking about the timing aspect, this weapon could've had a lot more depth if it WERE based on timed-parries giving perfectly accurate counterattacks instead of how it is now

[@Jinko_]

I intended to talk about it, but because it's not a weapon guide and this kind of knowledge is not useful for the rest of the video, I just removed it from the script altogether! The angle is not very generous. It's way worse than the riot shield, and you don't give the riot shield a lot of credit. You deflect when you are supposed to get shot, but you can still get shot while deflecting if the angle from the damage source and your crosshair is too high. I guess the best is to get a feel for it in the training range by using the dummies that constantly shoot. And I do agree that no timing required and no stamina/cooldown + no mobility ability make the weapon bland. Like the riot shield. Except it's worse.

[@de-ment]

@@Jinko_ nah I'm exaggerating the riotshield comment, I like it myself, makes me feel like a one-handed build in elden ring, it just feels inconsistent at times. I do have your vids regarding it on my watch later though, I will give it another shot after I do proper research on it.

BOULETTTTTTTT BAGUETTE

[@Jadeblades_]

How many hours does it take you to film/edit one of these videos? Very entertaining video man 😂🎉🎉🎉

[@Jinko_]

I make a long list of tests, then try them all out with a person for about two hours. Then I trim everything, look back at the clips, get more ideas, make the thumbnails, then try more thing, get carried away, record things for another video or make a discovery… then I write the script, start editing, realize I forgot to record some interactions, go record them. Then I realize I’m missing even more and go record them. Every time, I need to ask someone to come start a private match with me and do what I ask them, else I could not make this content. Then I edit for hours, and finally post it! So, a few days each time, and many hours. I’m glad it’s paying off, been doing it for years only to get 600-1000 views
