Ruining Rivals Again

[@Tarro57]

Love how Dan is using all the unavailable content just to flex.

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

Dan out here using the abyss skins showing them off while we get to drool over them. Also he seems so chill and just excited to play with jacob and show off cool stuff. I love when devs do these types of things.

[@Cle-o]

DAN FORNACE?! Now anytime Alpha invokes the name of Dan when the game gets a little glitchy, Dan can get personally insulted!

[@Reiven___]

Jacob has been doing that for almost a decade at this point.

[@nohlinthejay1246]

Alpha has known Dan since Rivals 1’s development, lol. Bro’s been insulting Dan since Sylvanos first dropped 😂

[@aggapuffin]

Dan coming out here with the skin only he can use at the moment, WOW. Can't believe him...

[@De_an]

"Well, Dan. It's time to move on to the afterlife. Do you have any regrets?" "Just one. I hate that stupid goat so much I hate her I hate her I hate her."

[@xraenon1664]

13:20 imagine hearing the creator of the game saying they regret adding your main to the roster lmao Edit: I should probably clarify that as a (current - I am very patiently awaiting the return of a certain funny shiny rock user) Clairen main I am fully aware there is a timeline where I am in this exact position

[@Getsugaru]

So much pain...

[@C_Kiri]

Me as a Zelda main in Smash, not having ever gotten the chance to play Rivals myself but always thinking it sounded cool that 'oh this game is like Melee players made their own game but they bothered adding a Zelda even though she's low tier, that's nice-- oh they hate the Zelda they made too huh. Okay I'll just crawl back in my little hole then. :('

[@KriskayART]

​@@C_KiriDan was just joking about hating Absa. Every character from rivals 1 (except the guest characters) will return to rivals 2 at some point in the future.

[@butter_0021]

Who’s your Rivals 1 main? I know there were 4 more characters added after workshop but I played on console so I didn’t get them.

[@xraenon1664]

@ My mains in Rivals 1 were Clairen and Olympia, one of those “Workshop 4” characters they added, picking some of the of the fan-made designs. The console release did get them as well, but I think it was a bit after the update dropped for PC.

[@likelyavirus]

"Is that a Dev icon" "I know a guy" MaybeDev/10 ❤

[@toriathan3082]

"I didn't order a Kragg!"

[@patroka]

OH MY GOODNESS I noticed the Orcane Noise (tm) myself! It’s pretty easy to notice since it is so out of place and sort of sounds like someone’s voice. I really don’t like it lmao, I thought I was going crazy because I couldn’t figure out what was causing it

[@yeast7244]

I love the dev saying he doesn't agree with an interaction

[@Zigzorark]

Spaghetti Lox, instead of saying “You don’t deserve power” should say, “You don’t deserve pasta”

[@Skynetbear]

Man I’m gonna miss the custom character stuff from the last game

[@bloge6991]

Its getting added back eventually

[@Skynetbear]

@@bloge6991Awesome, that all sounds like it’ll be WAY harder to implement though

[@bloge6991]

@Skynetbear the rivals 1 team was a collective like 6 people, now they have a whole team for every aspect of the game, and a really big budget, we already have our first dlc char coming out around Christmas

[@Hennns]

@@bloge6991 The devs did mention that workshop was 5-6 years into the timeline though.

[@lolazaurus]

@@bloge6991 The problem with workshop content for this game is that there is a MASSIVE difference between making character sprites and full 3D ones. I'm optimistic though, if we can get some workshop creativity and silliness anywhere close to Rivals 1 then this game will be peak. I'm excited for literally anything they add to this game at this point.

[@bonkai09]

0:34 12:37 17:34 Jacon will forever be the SICKEST Rivals player in existence

[@Nennecatgirl]

This is so cool!! I hope you play with Dan more, what an amazing position to be in, especially when looking at the history of this channel.

[@bluotopenc]

I think out of all of the characters that could return from rivals 1, I was most excited for Orcane because he's funny whale, but I'm also excited to see if Etalus or Hodan could come back.

[@Cool-Blob]

Okay, but the real question is when will excalibur make his return in rivals 2?

[@cardboardleaf7971]

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY

[@jaydenallen7587]

Holy crap Rivals 2!

[@zappypow]

8:22 I know the sound you're talking about, but to me it sounds more like the crazy frog "Bling" noise, and I like the noise

[@MrPickleEdits]

Orcane 2.

[@mishmash5576]

Order in the universe has been restored

[@curse5697]

8:32 that was SO good lmao

[@sqoosh636]

9:36 noticed right here when kragg gets lit on fire he kinda looks like janemba, am I the only one who sees it 😭

[@nimoes]

21:20 IS THAT KRAGG SKIN A BRAZIL REFERENCE??

[@_EthanStone]

DAN GIVE US THE ABYSS SKINS FROM ARCADE MODE THEY LOOK SO SICK

[@goldeklee]

Honestly, even if it's an unlock for something like "clear hard mode without using a continue", I'd try my best to get them

[@curse5697]

@@goldeklee fax

[@JackStache]

It's going to be like the first game and come from the single player mode, whenever we get that

[@Zukinilini]

This makes me happy

[@mr.noodle6931]

Hey Jacob Alpharad. Will we be getting a main channel video on this game at some point? That would be pretty cool i think.

[@Adamski-]

Dan just casually flexing the skin nobody else can get 😂

[@666blaziken]

Here's hoping we get another excalibur skin but with your voice clips.

[@LikesWafflez]

The only question is when is dan adding exalibur to the game.

[@zappypow]

HELL YAH RIVALS

[@TitanDraugen]

I kinda wonder if the Abyss skins is what happened to the main characters after falling into the Abyss. 💀

[@HoveringZero]

Bro Dan gets the cool abyssal zetter skin and we don't?!?! What is this oppression?!

[@Tiltigo]

It's jarring to see a roster this size after looking at the smash ultimate screen so many times

[@cardboardleaf7971]

so when's excalibre getting added

[@nanika3446]

DAN IS HERE!

[@RJsPsycho]

my first ever game on rivals was against alpha and i got destroyed

[@atruepanda1782]

I’ve seen server-side bots with more ping than Dan.

[@yuki_dawn]

Visually, I personally think Rivals 1 looks much better than this, especially my boy Orcane. But Fleet is real cute; she's new, right? I don't recognise her (but it's also been a hot minute since I last played RIvals). Mechanically though, this looks clean!

[@th3bear01]

Fleet is new to rivals 2, but is originally from one of their other games that released in between the two. I think it was a top down rogue-like(?) that was dice based.

[@VicViper]

For Fleet, look up Dungeons of Aether. She's only one of 4 protagonists in that game, and there's high chance of other reps from that game coming in Rivals 2.

[@yuki_dawn]

@@VicViper Thanks, I'll give it a look!

[@hotweebtrash2086]

Another fire upload

[@dmlgaming1783]

I’m extremely glad Dan hates Absa because I do too. I never want to see that monster ever again

[@quackkillerreal]

Hi Dan (Fornace btw)

[@MegaAlphaDog]

Mmmmmm Kragg mmmmmmmm

[@TheFunnySkeletonMan]

day 4 of asking alpharad to play Smack Studio

[@itscornstarch]

Play Robot 64

[@spencer7751]

Play more

[@plabcentral630]

Didn’t this guy play sonic 😥

[@Heywspbro]

Im here before 1 hour

[@HaloAddictedChild]

Damn am I early?

[@Florisch]

This 'Dev' guy is just flexing all video about his privileges. It makes me feel like he is this member of the group that doesn't contribute as much but boasts the most.

[@ScourJful]

Uh, you're joking right? Cause this "dev" guy is the creator of Rivals lmao.
