A Samurai Shodown tournament!? In 2018? Good matches! Let's hope that we'll see more in the future!

[@gravenwolf6535]

With the release of the new Samurai Showdown game in June. We'll be seeing more tournaments in the future.

[@poego6045]

I like the little detail of how Charlotte doesn't really get red (more a very lite pink) when she's in rage, which is a cool way of showing that even when she's angry, she maintains her poise.

[@mirko7587]

Better than SFV.

[@bugglemagnum6213]

@Dane Deandre it's 3 dollars until tomorrow at midnight if you havent yet

[@bugglemagnum6213]

on ps4 i mean

[@STLetsgetitonnow]

wtf?! Sam Sho tourney in the midwest 2k18? sure why not.

[@TeamSima]

8:20 it actually is 2-button heavy slash, C is kick and D is a function button for rolls, hops, meditating, etc

[@5TailFox]

Never thought I'd see a Samurai Shodown tournament here. Nice.

[@papounator8843]

tell me. how do you feel about the new SamSho game that was just announed? Personally, I was so hyped I almost fainted.

[@Sperium3000]

That commentator is most likely high off his rocker.

[@gez9145]

love seeing a samsho v tournament in 2018!

[@TevorTheThird]

Spooky shout-out for uploading this. Thanks sir. Does anyone know if there's an archive of the bigger tourney? I love seeing high level from older less popular games like this :D

[@sqzy__404]

TevorTheThird if you like to watch high level play from old fighting games, look up fightcade.

[@agschool708]

I like this game. I am glad it came out on the PS4.

[@yamiryuu]

This is a fun game , glad i got it when it was on sale

[@Uberwulf]

Does Enja's 2-rekka to fire column not work here? Confused why that wasn't used like, at all.

[@doublestarships646]

I literally started playing and Charlotte is my main. I love how much fun she is to play.

[@kirkcavenaugh758]

Nobody plays jubei :/

[@Bluzlbee]

cause if you press a button more than once he does slashes and gets free jumped on

[@Ali-fs7ze]

I came here for obvious reasons.

[@woogum10]

5 months later, I came here for obvious reasons.

[@thegreatdamiano8565]

3 hours later im just trying to learn how to play @@woogum10

[@thegreatdamiano8565]

foreal someone start linking manuals

[@superrobato4887]

The Great Damiano A week later and I’m just waiting for the new Samurai Showdown to come

[@sunthi9619]

The Great Damiano 1 year later try mizuumi wiki

[@BknMoonStudios]

That was an excellent run for Foo. Mad props.

[@Silversava2]

It seems like a though game to learn, ive tried samurai shodown before, always liked how the game looks, how it sounds but the gameplay man..it was hard to learn. And now that a new game comes i know im gonna play it even if im a total and complete noob at it.

[@Robstafarian]

Get yourself a copy of MAME, the NeoGeo BIOS, and some Samurai Shodown ROMs. I recommend II, V, and V Special. You may want to lower the difficulty level (which defaults to four, out of eight levels), and I will tell you how to do so if you are interested. If you can stand to wait, then look for the Samurai Shodown NeoGeo Collection on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and Steam this fall (from the developer of the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection, it will contain Samurai Shodown I, II, III, IV, V, and V Special with online play for each game).

[@LoveXKnife]

It's honestly surprisingly simple, there's basically no combos and most people play more than one character. Once you get a hang of the system you're good to go.

[@Metanitejoints]

The Rage Gawd Enja

[@nottobay6768]

So what does the wolf do?

[@vivalabello]

If I saw this Charlotte being jumped on one more time without dragon punch I will cry.

[@MrCageCat]

Is this game better than Samurai Shodown 2? I want to get either 2, this or 6 on PS4 and am leaning towards 2, but that I can always get and play on Fight cade, plus number 6 people say sucks, so don't want to waste money.

[@TyRiders2]

2 and V Special are both arguably the best

[@orlanzo2621]

SS2, SS4, and SS5SP are considered the "top tier" of SS games. Personally tho i love SS3 even tho it's clearly busted and broken. Don't touch SS6, it's trash.

[@juliansalamanca9989]

It's a good samsho but I think 2 or 4 are so much better... I'd like to see more tournaments of those games

[@papounator8843]

Dammit, Nintendo! Why didn't we get Samurai Shodown 5 Special instead? (I like the first one more personally but it's mostly nostalgia Bias since I only played the first one. you can bet your ass I'm gonna preorder SamSho 2019)

[@fadedsun303]

They just released SS5SP on the Switch.

[@xAkito]

@@fadedsun303 Yup

[@Agju]

huh.....Charlotte DOES look like Agrias. I never thought of that. Well, obviously Charlotte came first, but still.

[@benadrylthundercrotch7144]

Anyone know why samsho 6 isn't popular?

[@majortom331]

Benadryl Thundercrotch yeah, idk either. And Samsho 6 has some of my favorite characters. 🤔

[@malcovich_games]

Isn't it because it's arcade only? I don't recall a console version.

[@benadrylthundercrotch7144]

@@malcovich_games the samsho anthology on ps2 includes it but I don't know if it came out on anything more recent

[@ObeyDaFist]

SamSho 6 has all blood and gore removed, which is a shame since the big selling point of SamSho is being able to cut people in half

[@orlanzo2621]

Missing blood and gore, lame stages, lame music, none of the "soul" or atmosphere of the older games, and it's just a thrown together mess when it comes to the mechanics and gameplay. It just feels like a cheap knockoff of the SamSho series honestly.

[@agschool708]

Hopefully they will make a new one or a remake of SamSho 4.

[@carlosaugusto9821]

It's necessary to redesign the whole system... a mere SS4 (or any other) remake won't do it. The series had its appeal mainly because it was experimental and tried to do interesting things during the infancy of the fighting game development era. But now that's not enough.

[@agschool708]

Can't wait!!!!!!

[@wukong6853]

Yooooo, Good shit Foo.

[@DrunkensVision]

Why SSV>SSVI ? Someone knows?

[@Metanitejoints]

Drunken Vision samsho players are all different some prefer the bust and slash of iv even the combo system. 5sp is pretty good game with 50/50s

[@carlosaugusto9821]

I think only SSVSP is better, not regular SSV

[@Metanitejoints]

Carlos Augusto yeah vanilla is pretty busted

[@keyblade126]

Fluffy Coyote played a good Rera.

[@littletoncarey5770]

Why isn't anyone using their specials? And I would also like to add this game is awsome but there is no point to where your opponent is hurt and at a standstill for you to take advantage

[@dan_dai]

man I'm glad for FOO. In my humble opinion Charlotte seems to be a little bit cheesy. Respects to FOO about handling the situation and control the match!

[@fistoftheworldking3834]

28:41

[@Str8savage87]

Idk samurai showdown 2 and 4 are the best in my opinion especially 4 that game is top tier

[@vergilkilla1]

Enja is not a strong character so props to Foo

[@hunjseattle]

Is this Charlotte NOT that good?

[@frednapier3347]

She's good FOO is an amazing enja

[@KillaSmit20789]

39th

[@renegade_legend2583]

Charlotte sounds like King.

[@equineforecaster]

same voice actress

[@sebaken]

Charlotto

[@GodlikeOCD]

SS IV > SS V

[@TyRiders2]

Nah

[@orlanzo2621]

I definitely agree when it comes to Vanilla SS5, but i think 5 Special and 4 are about equal.

[@benjiroberts4434]

It's like comparing champion edition and super turbo IMO
