The Art of Switch Axe (MHW:I Switch Axe Montage)

[@harbyandrefrancofernandez3310]

“The art of evade window 5” is an alternative title

[@Saroku007]

Another switch axe main here. Didn’t even know you can combo like that. Still learning even after 600 hours. Thanks for the lesson!

[@JubJub958]

Beautiful, been playing since World and Swaxe has been one of my least played weapons until recently. Now I absolutely love it

[@tasin2776]

I completely forgot how good axe mode was good in world

[@Itzfreddo1]

Me to I feel Brainwashed

[@soulreaver6300]

Except Axe mode was wack in world. They buffed it.

[@roguesketch9189]

@@soulreaver6300 Yeah, but after all those years we don't really consider weapons without Iceborne additions anymore. Absolutely love what the did to Swax

[@soulreaver6300]

Oh I read it as World (before iceborne) I just forget that the game is referred to as World. Like rise or generations.

[@randomdude8877]

Wow you played that really well. Super measured and calculated the way i see it. Compared to other footage i have watched on the internet you just look super clean. I love it!

[@crushablepaper1570]

Those were some lovely morphers. Swaxe is so beautiful once you learn how to incorporate the morph moves into your repositioning.

[@RosietheOni]

As a Swaxe main, this is beautiful stuff here.

[@Gabzilla27]

Such a cool montage!!

[@MoLoToV740]

Because of you I will start playing Swtich Axe

[@asdo116]

Heavy inspiration bro. Just started using swaxe, I'll see if I can replicate some of this style into my gameplay. This needs more views!

[@ivanc4906]

It’s always nice to see that I’m not the only one that starts off a combo and misses everything but the last hit lol purposefully or not, I always feel silly doing it either way 😂

[@MiniWhiteDragon]

Badass dude!

[@andrewgunawan8580]

Why you gotta be so smooth😏

[@lokicatcoffee416]

Clean af

[@ivanpukhalevych238]

really cool montage! love it. I was IG main, now LS main and learning CB. Now I know what the next weapon after CB I ll learn

[@Gemini_Godhand]

cool moves bro!

[@Ken-zk5qr]

Who else heard valsatrax theme? also you are great at using switch axe

[@hush_puppy2560]

As an Swag Axe main, 100% approve 🤙 very fluid 👍

[@Mcbananers]

So clean

[@Itzfreddo1]

Amazing 🤩

[@xenoaez3374]

I love swaxe because I'm sitting here watching thinking about how other weapons have impressive looking moves but I never care for the and as I watched the way you play the skill expression just shines brighter than any other weapon I've seen.

[@Camilo316]

Quality Hunting and Quality work!!!

[@url4_4ve24]

Amazing montage, you reminded me to use more axe moves, cause i use axe only to move, morph atkk and power axe; for the alatreon i suggest you to zsd the head in escaton if never tried ;) and morph attk when he is casting linear thunders. And it was a pleasure to see all these moves 😊

[@url4_4ve24]

And finally a montage without zsd spam

[@ericjohnson5990]

Long live the switch axe!

[@alexandertam9271]

What is the ost on the second half?

[@gabrielmm8441]

that video hits different when i learned how the weapon really works

[@Solokid404]

This the video I should show to people to get them to play Switch axe. Super fun weapon.

[@dermarm6928]

beautiful, just beautiful. I did wonder, are you not a fan of the double overhead axe combo to increase the exhaust dmg? i love that move even against fatalis

[@tauntmaster5]

I tend to stay in sword form and primarily use axe for the mobility or small openings, so I normally focus more on building Amped state rather than using Power Axe.

[@d3c0yBoY]

Great montage! Now how about that build?

[@Lucky-GEN2]

Im so learning this weapon today

[@Skoll-Hati]

So smooth. What's a good RAW SA? havent unlocked Ruiner Nerg yet

[@Hydroxis45]

Gold Rathian or Raging Brachy are solid options👍🏾

[@Papiness]

Be honest.. behind every decent Swag axe vid (if not a mantle) is an Evade window

[@FantasyFlix777]

And it's 5 of course with 3 evade extender

[@tf1356]

I really need to finish iceborne. Rise has just been so addicting

[@Aberow]

Can you show build?

[@imgonnabuss]

it looks like the set has evade extender, and peak performance/quick sheath with the velkh greaves y+. i do wonder whats the whole set's skillset though...

[@grubbyarmadillo9863]

How special is Quick Sheath for Switch Axe?

[@imgonnabuss]

​@@grubbyarmadillo9863im not a switch axe user but i do know it has a slow sheath animation (like charge blade) and so you would want to have a faster sheath to quickly repos. (if the monster dashed far away) or quickly heal out of a fatal blow. so id say it is important

[@d3c0yBoY]

Agitator and Coalescence for sure. Damage reduction might be from Divine Blessing.

[@everythingwillbeease]

Bro playing switch axe like dancing. Beautiful. Btw, may I know what switch axe is that? I searched in the forge menu but didn't find it.

[@shuesha]

which sword axe is that?

[@TicoB88]

Def don’t use wild morph that often. Gotta take advantage saw a couple 500s in there

[@tauntmaster5]

It's a bit committal so it can be tough to use at first, but you should get it down with some practice. The 2nd hit of the morph sweep combo is switch axe's strongest move when it crits (stronger than the ZSD finisher, since that move can't crit) so definitely try to take advantage!

[@plex4107]

Evade window and evade extender detected, game play rejected

[@Vlad-tt7uz]

OMG what is this montage,making me wanna try SA

[@RedHoodFH]

So my first love will always be the CB but the SA definitely made its way into my top 5. I just with it had a guard or counter move like GS or LS

[@RahulJha-rc8dt]

Whats the gear at 2:11 like the weapon and the armor set does anyone know?

[@g0dnameD]

Not Sure on the weapon, but that is the Guild Palace Armor set

[@ret2156]

My favorite weapon. Apparently its number 9 in popularity.

[@DrsMaman]

Maybe because complicated? This weapon harder than CB

[@yobro6053]

@@DrsMaman agreed ,and does less damage with no block.

[@soulreaver6300]

​@@DrsMamanas someone who plays both CB and Swagaxe I would disagree. But I just find it easier and more engaging to use and so maybe that's why.

[@wha32423]

​​​@@DrsMaman I do agree on charge blade not being too complicated, but, switch axe is easier to manage and its easier for new players, in world and rise, comparated to charge blade

[@OnlyOriginalNinja]

⁠@@DrsMamanSwitch axe is wayyy simpler than charge blade what are you even saying?? You don’t know charge blade well enough if you believe this

[@jayrain1836]

What layered armour set is this?

[@Hydroxis45]

Royal Palace. You gotta do Arena quests

[@SpyroDraconem]

What switchaxe is that glam? Is it a modded design?

[@hsylvester34]

its in the game, you get it from the 50 shades of white event quest

[@heyimurchin6575]

2:00 ooofff that was god damn sexy

5:10 omfg I've never seen such a perfectly timed flip.

i wished my game would look so sharp mine is so blurry

[@tauntmaster5]

I recommend this guide if on PC: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2545798361 My game used to be pretty blurry.

No valtrax but still use the valtrax bgm...

A SA User... _without_ Evade Extender? What reality have i entered

[@janyozenith4331]

I don't have it either and don't feel the need to. I got a bunch of evade window and it's enough for me.
