[@Frif]

the inclusion of the tabs is awesome, the amount of work you do for these silly clone hero song covers is wild. thank you

[@HalfDuck]

Thanks :) The patreon support from CH players is good enough motivation to still be doing these 2 years later, I imagine I'd have moved on to different things otherwise

[@niclaswa5408]

Whenever I hear the song, I can still hear your “OH MY GOD” reaction when you FC’ed it.

[@meatballmeatpieborn5133]

It finally happened, i can rest easy now

[@HalfDuck]

Sleep well

[@deletiontrap]

It sounds like if you were to combine both Buckethead and Herman Li, you'd get this. Love it! Excellent cover!

[@xscythe2190]

I would love to hear the best of both worlds by jarvis on guitar. That song is so beautiful.

[@HalfDuck]

Jarvis is a king, I'll see what can be done

[@realjarvis9999]

what the hell man lmao

[@HalfDuck]

Whoops

[@Near_Void]

The half duck cover might just be one of the best playthroughs of this song

[@jacematez7931]

[@HalfDuck]

Haha awesome, thank you :)

[@Yhp420]

This is a perfect cover.

[@HalfDuck]

[@spoildmilk5249]

This song is a monster, and it always sounded amazing. Feels even better to hear such a great cover

[@Elbobburrito]

I'm glad it was you that came up first when I searched for this.

[@HalfDuck]

We will prevail

[@Imaproshaman7]

This is amazing.

[@randomviewer896]

[@HalfDuck]

Legends are tech fc'd, not made

[@RawFish2DChannel]

[@HalfDuck]

Insane is what I'm aiming for

[@ijustwannalearn9444]

[@Abyssive]

one of the most beautiful versions i've heard of prevail

[@ACESTNIIX]

amazing work dude !!!!!!!!! and an amazing cover !!

[@HalfDuck]

Thanks!

[@pineapplequeen13]

Holy shit i just came across this cover now while looking for the original song and you have some CRAZY talent

[@TheBeast94YT]

I love the fade-ins and outs at certain parts, they really help the cover feel like a cover rather than just a guitar sheet music “tutorial”

[@pndaMobby]

this is the best prevail tech fc ever

[@acidicterminal]

bro. yo. dawg. this song already gave me so much determination and confidence by itself, but with this cover it makes it even more impactful. you make these things AMAZING AND I LOVE THEM! fantastic job, ducky

[@DeftRose]

I fucking love this!!

[@the_coeur_coalescence]

I dunno how you do it, man, but all I can say is keep on rockin' (Also, very curious to hear your Savagent 2 solos when you release em)

[@celloj3703]

YOU'RE LITERALLY INSANE MAN

[@fanamatakecick97]

This absolutely wrecked my brain

[@HalfDuck]

Ouch

[@ventithedrunk9506]

This... This is exactly what I wanted to hear 🥲

[@alexavila9802]

Yooo he got the FC that's pretty Pog

[@thetrawlerman]

You are one of the coolest people to ever exist

[@HalfDuck]

That's good compliment

[@dokk7236]

i just realized i searched for a prevail guitar cover the day this video came out 🧐🧐🧐

[@HalfDuck]

Wowww that was luck

[@lunna_014]

wow that's wtf, genius

[@zv3zd525]

holy BALLS

[@SunnieD_]

What the fuck, that was amazing...

[@HalfDuck]

Woohoo

[@defcon4824]

You need to keep putting those tabs...ever since you released symmetry I've been wanting to play stuff like this

[@HalfDuck]

Yeah all future videos will have tabs going onwards

[@MirageLuna]

The original always gives me a feeling of nostalgia I can't explain. This one doesn't as much but I love it anyways. Keep it up!

[@Ewokean]

Damn. Insane FC. LMAO

[@tboneanimatetwoaccount2094]

Staggering A doesn't need teleporting to be FC'd.

[@SparkysAdventure]

actually true tho, Chandler has done it and a couple others I think

[@KUJOSREVENGE]

this alone may put you in my top 5 guitarists list holy fuck. you're a monster.

[@HalfDuck]

Thanks, that's a great compliment :D

[@reatard.8222]

k, now that's on the whole 'nother level...

[@HalfDuck]

We are now on level 8

[@callanmckeogh8058]

Bleep bloop

[@HalfDuck]

Bleeeeeeeep

[@zacharyedwards2849]

I love how the clone hero track had a miss at around 4:15 lol Edit: Also - absolutely face melting, thanks for the tabs!

[@imkedux]

That's what happens when you have the game locked at 60fps

[@generalguy26]

oh boy, another version of prevail that I can add AYAYA to

[@lynrith1789]

im pretty late to this but awesome!!!!! pog!!!!!!

[@HalfDuck]

Glad you like it!

[@defcon4824]

I wish my electric wasnt down so I could learn this

[@imens7223]

Me can barely play this on a plastic guitar HalfDuck: Hold my guitar pick

[@TheKNEE13]

funny prevail pattern go brrrr

[@logobot7572]

Had an idea, make a rock version, but either tormented or staggering solo is a Cliff-style shreddy bass solo >:3

[@logobot7572]

Also there were so many opportunities in the post-intro riff for pinch harmonics, but you were focusing more on keeping it true to the original

[@TCP_dizzy-kf6rx]

Hey halfduck, can you create an STL tone so our guitars can sound like yours??

[@swagmaster-vn2dx]

I shall request for destruction armagedon, if possible. Pretty please.

[@HalfDuck]

Destruction armageddon, destruction armagedon. The more I say it, the more likely I'll remember next time I'm starting a video

[@weeksinorlandoy2k424]

fury of the storm cover when

[@Momonga-s7o]

No freaking way it must be Christmas.

[@HalfDuck]

We're almost there

[@triciawaterbury5289]

Made it early boys

[@HalfDuck]

The early bird gets the FC

[@majormalfunction1313]

metallica doing a solo after saying 7 words:

[@yanxCH]

4:14 not an fc >:[

[@HalfDuck]

My apologies yankes

[@DanielTheUncoolio]

also I love how the Bot missed but you FCed You are better than the Bot lmao

[@HalfDuck]

It's cause I set the framerate rate too low, the game can only handle one input per frame

[@assman6249]

:)

[@DanielTheUncoolio]

I wonder how it would sound if you actually stuck with the 5 frets and played it as though it was clone hero

[@NotASavage]

​parvel jarvus song ?? ????????

[@Brent-jj6qi]

Can we get megalodon?

[@monitorscreenbroked]

hands hurt?

[@wikkrmusic]

not me stealing your techniques to write a really fuckin hard song lmao

[@niclaswa5408]

Amazing as always, but hear me out. *puts arm around your shoulder* I’m not saying that this has to be the next song, but the next “big boi” song should be *drum rolls* Marathon by schmutz06. *tsss* If there’s one song that (in my opinion) could need a guitar makeover, it would be that song. Yeah I know. I’ve requested different songs before, but I’ll take them all back. Pretend like they never happened, but let’s get back to the point. Let’s be honest here. The main instrument in Marathon sounds like an old Nokia phone, but with your guitar skills, *moves closer to your face* it would make quite the difference. *walks away while laughing manically* Edit: I don’t know what came on to me. I guess I had “manipulating villain” in my mind while I wrote this. I’m sorry for my behavior. I won’t type like this ever again. Edit again: but seriously though. A cover of Marathon would be dope.

[@HalfDuck]

That's a lot of words, I'll keep marathon in mind when I feel like pain

[@niclaswa5408]

@@HalfDuck I was just about to delete this comment and replace it with a better one, but since you're already here, then I guess I'll just keep it like it is then.

[@Perjas31]

funny how at 4:14 even the bot missed

[@chimp9465]

how come you dont release solo albums randomly like buckethead does?

[@HalfDuck]

Each of my songs also has a tab, video, and clone hero chart to go with it, so that slows me down a bit haha. And also the fact that I'm doing the production, mixing plus other instruments that Buckethead has other people to do for him

[@anemiapwns1]

Now play it on a real Guitar Hero guitar.

[@SnakeTV_]

What the hell this is great

[@HalfDuck]

Yeah boiiiiiiiiiii
