Bro if Switch Axe gets nerfed in Rise I’ll know who to come after! Set this slaughter to private video so Capcom doesn’t see 🙃

I find kind of unfortunate that the zero discharge is so powerful. We almost always see SA speedruns with full zero discharge, it's really too bad, because the zero discharge is only one attack of the SA. The other attacks, combined together, can deal a lot of damage, tho not as quite as the spam zero discharge with a great set, unfortunately. But that doesn't make your run less incredible, I admit seeing those damages proc is damn satisfying~ * w*

I agree, I wish ZSD wasnt so strong with SA, but its Temporal and Rocksteady that make it truly cheesy. TA runs are a lot of fun with SA because you dont rely on ZSD as much. I only use ZSD spam for my runs when I have to, when playing casually I never bring mantles with me, makes SA a lot more fun.

@@Vitrxst Yeah this is what I found when I swapped to SA. The issue is the mantles, not really the move. Without RS/T if you try this kind of thing on most monsters you get knocked off pretty quick unless you pick a good opening. It's the same for a lot of the more OP moves in World (perfect rush for example), the move can only be spammed when you have rocksteady on so nothing can interrupt you. Honestly mantles of that type were just not a very smart addition, hopefully if they bring specialized tools back in future games they focus more on things that aren't universally applicable player buffs.

Sub 1:45 on a T2 with such bad hitzones, congrats!
