The Battle Cats - Attack Animation, Foreswing and Backswing.

I want to put Cosmo's entire animation in the thumbnail but then it would take the entire screen.
Been a while since I do a talk/discussion video, so here you go. The initial script was way longer and I even had to cut down an entire section lol, I am terrible at writing things in a compact way.
...also I forgot to say, the Momoco footage is from Yohane, check the dude out he make epic strats and stuff

5:41 Look at how high definition Time Traveller Cat is compared to the other cats. Come on, Ponos

[@superkonijn988]

Kid Will he comes from a future where Ponos updated the definition

[@maxfremax832]

But then you realise there is such thing as multiple definitions in a single unit

[@marcus23424]

Get it? Because he comes from the future?

[@Shabowdiadlo]

I really want to say something about the vid 1. The guide is neat for those that complains about certain units being bad while they are not (this is not true as well as always for all units but I feel that units like lasvoss has a good backup swing but a bad fore swing) 2. Lucas it do be like that in terms of mic quality 3. I want to point out that momocos animation is adorable

[@FrostTheDoctor]

I just got lasvoss while trying to get the legend rare in dynamites and hes pretty good.

[@Shabowdiadlo]

@@FrostTheDoctor hate to break it to you but he's not good he has good dmg and that's fine everything else is kinda bad plus he relies on his savage blows and beserk to be a big dmg dealer

The mic quality doesn't bother me much honestly, because the quality of the video itself is so good. You make such good informational videos on BC, thanks for all the great content!

2:14 OBS: If these units gets knockbacked they will instantly start rushing again, which proves that the stand still state is it's backswing, Awakened Bahamult Cat is also a "Sniper" Cat Unit.

12:33 HEY you forgot ME

[@Marik4295]

Me: chooses and favors cats based on looks Battle cats:

[@mariomario9907]

Just wanna add a bit on multi-hit units: For units with 1 attack per animation (ex: unevolved Bahamut), we notice that if they get knocked back before landing their attack, they'll immediately attack again once they get in range even if they have a very long attack cycle. For units with >1 attack per animation (ex: Kung fu X) we notice that if they get knocked back before they land their LAST hit, they'll immediately attack again once they get in range even if they have a very long attack cycle. So how is this information useful? Honestly I don't really know. However, this gives me an idea on how PONOS can make a cat/enemy unit with a pseudo rebound mechanic. So this units attack is somewhat similar to A.Bahamut; Lots of knockbacks, maybe short range? , a strong instantaneous first attack and an extra secondary attack. But here's the difference: the second attack will happen 5~10 seconds after the first attack, its attack animation ends ~1 second after the last attack and it has a long (ex: 30 second) attack cycle. This therefore creates an interesting suicide bomber unit. If this unit is a cat, you'd want that unit to actually get knocked back somewhere after it lands its first hit but before the second hit in order to prevent its long attack cycle and continue dealing massive dps. If this is an enemy unit, you'd want to avoid knocking it back before it finishes its 2nd attack, otherwise he'll become a much more dangerous version of mr.puffington.

[@bironbudokai742]

Pretty sad I was introduced to your explanation videos when i'm already so far into the game. These would've been so crucial months ago.

when you realize the only Nyandam variant with fast foreswing is also the only Enemy unit without a name reveal from PONOS in EN

[@ShaduIFPI]

*_6:27_*_ - Another advantage might be If a Unit is weakened, and It has long Foreswing, the Weaken ends before It lands Its attack._

[@RedstonePotion]

That's just complete RNG though. I counter your argument by saying 'what if the unit was gonna do a normal attack, but then got weakened during it's foreswing, which is so long.'

@@RedstonePotion _I would say the other way around Is also RNG based._

Do not listen to him: The ONLY useful units are the rare/super rare. He's basically telling you to try to get an Uber which sucks. Don't do it, not worth the cf.

[@ultimaterecoil1136]

OLD劉浩浚 I only got four star manic legs replacement sadly

[@yeepicowo3461]

No don't do guarantee, there's much better sets. The Sr/r are not guaranteed from the roll so it's a bad idea. The Ubers are pretty bad too.

1:57 snipers? I‘d rather say snipers to LD Units. What you mean are suicide units. They rush into the enemies, delivering a heavy blow and you don’t really expect them to survive, tho they can sometimes land multiple hits. That’s why they are suiciders

[@ToastyTheGamingToaster]

They are usually fast so can “accurately” land a hit. It’s been 3 years hopefully you get it now.
