[@gaminglakitu]

It's only been one month yet its felt like so long since we got to throw our rocks. Its good to be back

[@hteety]

That's because it's been two.

[@OriginalDad]

@@hteety Listen. Numbers are hard. Just like rocks.

[@juliangabriel]

Sajam tried to ignore it, but don't let him cover up "CLIMAX TIME!!"

[@mibeador]

So to somewhat explain the Jackson combo, Jackson has 6 bullets, by spending them he can do a Trigger Cancel which partially resets damage and hitstun scaling. By Trigger Canceling a super the rest of the combo is unburstable. So basically, he can combo as long as he has a bullets.

[@MUGENanaya]

seems to replace his burst bar though; can he not burst?

[@esn_64]

@@MUGENanayaburst uses bullets, 2-3 from what I remember

[@mibeador]

@@MUGENanaya he can burst by using two bullets. For the record he only gets bullets back at the start of a round, one for winning and two for losing. His damage is subpar without using a bullet so having all 6 at the start of a round is pretty rare

[@AndreaJensDemetrio]

Yeah, the consequence is that a defensive Johnson player can burst up to 3 times in one round. It's rare that it happens, but I think he is the only character that can do that, at the cost of completely sacrificing his offence!

[@zackswitch9656]

Youre such a nerd

[@Nooctae]

I'm always surprised how many new people there must be for 31% of people to vote no when a pink Makoto gets a command grab while cornered.

[@DragonaxFilms]

You never know when someone will submit a non-lethal Makoto just to mess with everyone. It's all mind games within mind games. Also I'm definitely not huffing copium for voting wrong on that one, haha :')

[@aclonymous]

@@DragonaxFilmscombos on this show are always optimal, and if Makoto lands command grab with more than half of the screen in front of her, she can ToD every character that people actually play.

[@DragonaxFilms]

@@aclonymousThat's just what Sajam wants you to think, I won't fall for his schemes.

[@jacobnguyen8372]

The long con of Sajam mentioning a pattern between 2 command grabs AND teaching the importance of Bravery Points only for the Ladiva command grab to not kill is insane. Do not let this man tell you that he is impartial or that this show is fair. You will lose your hard earned points.

[@NeoBoneGirl]

It was so obvious after everything had been said that there was no way in hell that command grab killed though, he was building a storyline with a message to improve future WiK players. And that message is you gotta have a feel for the flow of the show more than any knowledge can help you

[@Its_2BA]

For those who don’t know, Santa Fighter was made by the same person who made Flappy Fighter a few years ago. I’m super hyped to see this game return albeit as a different game.

[@grumpydoodle8455]

This was the first WIK I managed to catch live and I went a respectable 11-9 Even more importantly, the One Punch Man clip has been stuck in my head ever since. It's so good.

[@thedarksleeve]

I've submitted it a couple of times and was really happy to see it shown. He learned that loop from a random in matchmaking and the chat coined it 特売日ループ "Sale's Day Loop" since Saitama is shouting about missing sales day at the supermarket during the move.

[@BearTheGrudge]

It is so hilariously stupid looking I loved it

[@AndreaJensDemetrio]

Johnson and Evilobster are guests from another game called Schwarzerblitz, which features a bullet system similar to what seen in the clip. Evilobster is a skin for Baron Brightstar in Duels of Fortune. Instead, Johnson/Jackson (long story, the name change is story-related) is a full guest character and has a mechanic that allows him to reset hitstun/increase damage. The original system from his original game Schwarzerblitz allows him to spend bullets to make his attacks unblockable and deal additional hitstun OR to run after the opponent on a successful launcher. Bullet Counters cannot be recovered in any way except at round start (2 for losing, 1 for winning). His DoF variant has something similar in spirit - he doesn't have access to his unblockable Trigger Attacks, but he can use his Trigger Cancels in a more freeform way. Also, Shaz the sharkman is his best friend, in the post-epilogue material :D

[@foursix32]

Hold on a minute...that name...Andrea Demetrio... YOU made Schwarzerblitz! You think you can just waltz up in here and casually name drop your own game that's going for free on Steam?! Of course you can! I'll make sure to check it out!

[@AndreaJensDemetrio]

Eagle Spike. Eagle Spike. EA...GLE SPIKE. The sheer *menace* behind those words.

[@shmooters5599]

My favorite running joke w/ this show is when Sajam entertains chat's guess about the game or player as if they are right, cuts to something completely unrelated and does not acknowledge it at all.

[@Eggroll3s]

[@jonahcoffman3078]

One massive dump

[@pon3d120]

Good to know I’m not the only one.

[@BaronWarthog]

I love how Sajam was offended on behalf of Jackson's sharkman friend (Shaz), plus the people thinking Jackson was a Happy Chaos style character with the bullets. The Shaz throwing super is so funny. Anyway both Duels of Fortune and Schwarzerblitz, the 3d fighting game Jackson, Evilobster, and Shaz crossed over from, are free on Steam.

[@AndreaJensDemetrio]

Shaz being thrown like a ragdoll despite being Vince's best friend is one of things that makes me chuckle the most of his DoF version. I still remember when Ben, Kaleb and I brainstormed that super. It just felt right🤣

[@magicalgirl1296]

That Cagliostro combo was sick. I didn't notice the trap get set at first.

[@JohnnyG2429]

The Jerma cameo in the Cag clip killed me😂😂😂

[@Waffles2186]

I love these “will it kill” segments they would play these sometimes live at Evo just to fill time while they setup the next fight or if a technical difficulty arises they play these videos for us live in the audience. While commentators make small talk it’s a great system.

Gollum confirmed OP for breaking an entire team comp with few crumbs

[@chinesemassproduction]

23:42 "Why does he spawn in the extra barrels?" Sajam, his name is brawler. What do you think he was doing before starting the fight?

[@RougeMephilesClone]

Both of the Duels of Fortune clips had guest characters in them. Mystery Johnson and Evilobster are both from the _free_ 3D fighting game Schwarzerblitz, with Evilobster being a special Injustice 2-style skin for Baron (who was in past WIK clips). Johnson is pretty dripped out in his own game, though his fighting style is so Virtua Fighter-plain that his shark friend super is new for DoF. He could always do stuff with his hat, though. Johnson's bullet system is a mechanic ported from Schwarzerblitz, though it was meant to evoke an edgy 90's feel rather than represent gun ammunition. Ember was wearing an alt costume, and is one of the playable characters from the upcoming Paper Mario-like platformer Hyper Team Recon. She can copy moves from everyone like Kirby.

[@AlmondChocolate-b1j]

as someone who plays way too much kamen rider super climax heroes, that clip is SUPPOSED TO KILL, climax time fills your meter and makes some moves recover faster, he could have done a setup and do roman cancel super

[@koffydnf979]

if you ever think a move in your game is too active, in the DNF Duel clip at 22:55 Brawler's combo starter has 20 ACTIVE FRAMES and can meaty people even after youve hit the ground again

[@SyRose901]

Very different game, but I think in UMvC3, Amaterasu's super lasts so long for a damage super, that when done in a team hypercombo, someone like Doom can recover while it's still going. Opponent has to block the full-screen super for a solid second while Doom is free to move. But that's a 3v3 game. Idk about any 1v1 game that does that ngl. But 20 frames of invuln have been seen before(Potemkin backdash in +R)

[@KingDoesRage]

as someone who has been hit by the cag reset combo the moment I saw counterhit c.h I knew he was dead

“Are you ready for some Chun Li action?” Have a different meaning after learning she is the most searched character in R34.

32:00 You could say that mid is back on the menu. Went 11-9 this time, actually got better results in the first half than usual, maybe because I wasn't trying to meta-vote for once.

"so its on you to maintain your composure... so here we go, the BBTAG." composure broken. how dare you.

[@Mene0]

That Jackson combo was sick. He can pick the hat back what the hell?

[@AndreaJensDemetrio]

It's a thing that comes from his original game, Schwarzerblitz (Johnson/Jackson is the same character, he changes name during the story for reasons). Basically, he can randomly lose his hat if he is hit enough times, but can also wear it back with a special command. However, he has a secret move that can only be performed while standing near the fallen hat. This move, Hat of Doom, is present both in Schwarzerblitz and in his Duels of Fortune guest character version. It's usually a gimmick with very little usage in a real match, but it feels great when it connects 🤣

It's hard to catch everything for all games, especially when we watch 400 clips over the course of a few days. We're usually pretty good about it, but sometimes an unoptimal combo slips through.

[@MokoES]

@@Infil its okay its just a shame thar it was melty that has the least amount of representation in the show out of the modern relevant fgs.

[@Infil]

@@MokoES I mean, I don't think including a suboptimal combo by accident paints Melty in a bad light. If we knew the clip was suboptimal, we'd have not included it and there would be no Melty in this show at all. Instead, people got to enjoy seeing the game again.
