The WORST item in the game is actually good now?

[@DisputedOrigin]

Thank you guys for the feedback on this one! I agree with a lot of the things you guys are saying; again this was a more experimental video, I'll be taking this into account for future uploads!

[@cyinor]

thanks gramps

[@NexGenration99]

was fun being a part of this stream in the comments section. im glad you included the part about the pots because i keep seeing a bunch of people saying "its much better now, you can push pots much easier now" and its nice to have something to slap in their face and say "oh realy, is it now?"

Stone flux has always been goon on mulT but you need a large amount of attack speed with double nail gun and spam click your m1 and m2 cause its your only movement

[@lieljensen]

I feel like the editing style is alright on its own, but the frequent sound / visual effects that would normally go well with a more dynamic video just feel kind of odd for what essentially is an edited VOD from a stream. Personally I prefer the older plain "cut it up and post" approach since I think it's chill and fits the DO channel. But I might be biased because I just got so used to how VODs were previously edited and I love the simplicity of it.

[@sorriiez]

this ^^ i would prefer less sound effects, but the music fits pretty great

[@Zephyr8564]

Gotta agree with this one, no hate to your new editor though I'm sure he's a lovely guy 👍

[@ShiroIsNotKuro]

Yeah I totally agree with you! I personally feel like a short edit could work every once in a while if it's in an extremely funny/silly situation (like a real wtf moment)

[@luigiluigi543212345]

yeah! either more or less would be good, it's a bit in-between right now but good effort!

[@Colelauritsen]

I like the edits and they are generally funny, but it kinda feels like they’re having a separate dialogue with the viewer. I think because disputed’s stream is generally chill and the edits by their nature or more high energy

[@balec6515]

The cat edit onto the survivor and the entire pot rolling bit was good but a lot of the edits were a bit much for my taste. The background track was fine but I would also be fine without it as well. The entire video felt like something I would watch on dangerouslyfunny but part of what makes this type of editing work for him so well is his deadpan delivery and dry humor which isn't really the kind of humor on your channel.

[@McMuster]

The gags and sound effects are a bit much currently, but the editors notes ("this goes on for some time," "he gets quite mad") and more unobtrusive memes (stages of grief fadein) are a good bit

[@acidule445]

Editing was good, but I feel like the only times where the funny little sounds and stuff should happen is when something Disputed himself notes or makes fun of. Otherwise pretty funny, I loved the fade in "What is the 3rd stage of grief" pot rolling bit.

[@6karnex9]

The editing seems like a little too much for me. I kinda liked it, I usually don't have trouble with editing like this but in this video it seems like too many effects were added or something, i need a breather in between funnies man

[@ZeRancher]

I love false son. I’m happy that other people in the community feel the same.

[@MrTil8]

This editing is more fast-paced and I don't know if I like it. There's so much adhd inducing editing in shorts and sometimes it's better (I like them more) to have the slower/less edited videos, like your old ones. Maybe I'm wrong (No hate to the editor himself). And the brainrot sfx are not exactly the thing I want to hear in ROR runs

[@osteohiveporosis6882]

If I had some advice for the editor, just toning down the sound effects for what is a more chill video would probably be better. I think he's got a lot of talent and he's good as an editor, but for specifically Dio's videos, less usually ends up being more.

[@jepppppp]

hi so far as for the feedback for the editor i love the editing style but the sound effects can be too much sometimes other than that it’s good :)

[@VictoryMan-cj1ry]

for the m2, having charges unused gives armor and attack speed, and used ones give move speed and hp regen, the move speed gained by using all the spikes seems to generally (tho not completely) cancel out the move speed lost of stone flux

[@Kizen.]

Yeah, but it has diminishing returns. The first stoneflux gives a noticeable boost in movespeed so long as you used at least 12+ stacks iirc. the 2nd requires a whole lot more if you dont have other movespeed items.

[@garfieldreal66]

“Stop harassing me child I will destroy you😡” that broke me

[@Juexis5]

first of all good job to the editor! some of the jokes don’t fit the disputed origin brand of humor but some of the edits are actually pretty funny. I think if the jokes were just more infrequent they would land better, quality > quantity. overall, very glad to see you (and editor) experiment with new stuff. 12:46 aaaa thats me :DD

[@BeeCygNus]

waiting for modders to actually tweak False Son's animations so he can look really cool instead of being a walking stiff golem

[@kashifraja8451]

to clarify, growth means scales off of max hp BONUS. so hp from lvling up, for an example will not contribute

[@andrewsantos4801]

Disputed hired the Johnny Test editor

[@ensei_alice]

i don't mind small edits that add a bit of flair but stuff like 2:30 really feels out of touch with the usual content. repetitive audio cues also can be funny and add something but DO's vibe is usually a lot more chill so the spongebob audio spam was kinda out of place

[@RojoDawg31]

false son actually seems dope i like the character alot i wish the animation for the rock throw was him taking them off himself or something

[@ProjectMyDude]

Disputed if you didn’t know atifecer has been buffed, just get one attack speed and you’ll see, get a lot of attack speed and itle be broken

[@ragatonkermit2707]

I think the cuts and general editing is really great! But the extra visual and sound effects are a bit much for what we're used to.

[@TacocatGames22]

I really liked the jokes and editing, thought it enhanced the joke in a lot of situations

[@Tom_Foolery-y8j]

[@doffus5496]

Wdym worst item in the game? Stoneflux is the best lunar for looping, you get double health (--->free shaped glass) AND it makes your character controllable without having to scrap your movement items, it's a win-win.

[@yakone1163]

i mean if you're looping at that point you probably one shot everything in the game and nothing you pick up pretty much matters lol

[@ironbear7589]

I never considered I could use stoneflux to stop my loop 3 match 5 speed. Thanks for the amazing tip!

[@willydonka1041]

in a game where hunters harpoon exists I cant believe we saying shaped glass but for health is bad like its gen just free health and a speed fixer without staring at a scrapper for 50 minutes, hunters harpoon is just the sprinting glitch in minecraft multiplayer

[@nugget0928]

I like Lars' editing style, it's very fun, but I think that it lends itself better to more high energy content than this video in particular, and it would fit better with something like the Miner or multiplayer video.

[@thatkiddejonte4684]

Hey man haven't seen you in a bit, hope you're doing alright

[@glitchtabby]

the way False Son works is your M2 or L2 (aka left trigger) ability gives you armor and attack speed the more you have stacked up but if you use them it exchanges armor and attack speed for speed and health regen (I think its 2.5 per second per used stack) Laser of the father and the alternate version gives you back stacks when you hit with it and is affected by growth (laser of the father extends the duration and the laser burst gives you more stacks of it like your M2 ability). you're supposed to play on a loop where you go in beat the hell out of the enemy and dip out using all your spikes to regen health and utilizing the speed buff to dodge.

[@Tulip9518]

[@g0_0fster]

I just got a trump ad with AI using YOUR voice

[@renewalacumen1770]

False Son works off the Growth Stat, meaning it isn't directly tied to your health, but rather health items (bison steak, infusion, stone flux, growth nectar). So even if you glass 70% of your health on e8, with a bison streak it will always be 5 spikes. False Son with stone flux is honestly very great at any stacks as his movement is tied to his secondary. The spikes do three things: when they're stocked up gain dr and attack damage, but when you use them gain movement speed and healing speed. They also apply a debuff to enemies by lowering movement speed and damage reduction. So with stone flux you can still move very fast and havs the massive amount of health!

Hey disputed! Personally, I think the editing style is great! My only request is the sound effects are turned down, you are my break from all of the high speed stuff, since you’re so chill! Last thing, I think the parts where you just don’t talk and you just fight don’t have to be edited over, it’s fun to watch. Thanks!

[@dennisnguyen3122]

How has no one noticed this guy sounds exactly like SenyaiGrubs. Love the videos keep up the good work!

[@MatoMeatball]

Yea, the mechanics of how False Son's spike amounts work can be a bit confusing but basically: you gain more spikes for HP *BONUSES* afaic, so leveling up doesn't give you more. That's why also taking shaped glass doesn't affect it at first, but it does diminish the value you get from stone flux pauldrons. Other than that, it's worth mentioning that the bonuses you get are based on the amount of spikes that you have or the amount of spikes that you're *missing*. So the more max spike stocks you have, the easier it will be to strike the equilibrum that suits you regarding attack speed+armor vs movement speed+regen. OR the more powerful it will be to go all in for either. Another good tool for balancing the amount of spikes you've got is picking the alternate special. It's worse when it comes to dealing damage on its own, but it allows you to regain spikes more consistently and with a better sense of control. If the wiki doesn't lie about the proc coefficient of the spikes being 3 (aka ridiculously high enough that I kind of don't believe it to be true), it ironically makes for a much better proc build.

[@sakira8482]

i rly love the new editing style !!

[@imjay2118]

[@Tommy-P-100]

I think the content was good, and the editing was a fine reach into something new. I think in this case it felt more like I was watching a kids channel or a tumblr-users fan edit more so, but I think putting effort into editing can never hurt. For example, something like when you say something that contradicts yourself, then it shows a clip/flashback of you saying the opposite. Or When you say something about an item then it shows a wiki page where you're just incorrect. Editing that focuses on complimenting what happens in your game/what you say, rather than "hehe derp funny"

[@PROGAMING24-pe2ye]

STONE FLUX PAULDRON MY BELOVED LETS FLUXING GOOOOOOOOOO

[@Eddiember]

The False Son is my favorite character. I agree that the animations are, lack luster at best, but but the combination of the Spike's Lunar Ruin and the Laser's massive damage just melts bosses. Coupled with the Stone Flux Pauldron and its a bit of a power trip. One of the first characters I beat Monsoon False Son with.

[@josephsullivan9804]

Awesome video, on the editing, I personally don’t prefer that kind of background music. I hear it in so much gameplay-based content. And by ‘it’ I mean the real uppity stuff, it reminds me of sneaky snitch. Just not my preference. I really enjoy the music Disputed plays during his streams, I fuck with that. Other than that, love it.

[@RycoonGalloy]

the new lunar is easily the worst item in the game

[@AdosFolz]

I can't believe disputed gave the channel to Lars and is now a Lars ror2 channel, so generous

[@Unknown_Source]

To be clear, the edits arent bad, it just doesn’t mesh super well; the chill VOD combined with the ADHD edits. BOTH are good, you guys can probably improve it with time but for now its like, figuring out how to mesh it best together

[@smudgeypankcakes7020]

love the new editing broski

[@SuperZelda1712]

Loved the more involved edit

[@daviddragonheart6798]

Longstanding Solitude isnt a BAD lunar, but late game / looping, it falls off due to XP requirements for leveling up. Getting MORE of them offsets this, as the chests you can open scale with stacks! 2 Longstanding Solitude lets you open 2 chests every levelup, for example.

[@minti1702]

To Lars: You improved since the last video, but here are some things to consider: Less sound effects, slightly lower volume music, less text, less memes that are squares on screen. Find a couple good moments (ie the Grovetender exploding, the ton of wisps, the red item) and spread them out quite a bit to give it impact (think like a long rollercoaster. The drops are only intense because there are only a few in contrast to the slower sections). Don't fast forward through footage unless it is extremely boring. Otherwise, I think you're doing great.

[@brandongeske139]

I suffer so hard with false sons laser esp phase 3 with no movement abilities since he disables everything. It’s long duration, perfect accuracy,and does a ridiculous amount of dps.

[@enlightenedblade171]

Love the editing so much

[@Kizen.]

Yeah, I discovered Stone Flux Pauldron at just 1 stack of it is pretty busted on him. I wasn't expecting it, but I was massively impressed. Not only is it super easy to get fairly reliably in most runs (i mean its one of VERY few lunar items.) but you can even get it stage 1 if lucky enough. And that's a massive boost to damage, movement speed, regen, attack speed, and gives you plenty of ranged damage. It also scales with your level and buffs all other HP items too, which makes it one of the best pickups overall. The later you go the more viable getting more of them becomes too. I don't recommend glass shard with it though, that actually hurts a good bit. You nerf your movespeed too much because you gain less total stacks of growth and don't get nearly as long of a laser due to it.

[@BrilliantBouncingBall]

I much prefer the simplistic editing style from before but at least the meme edits weren’t too in your face (until the mithrix fight that is). interesting run though

[@Vo_fu]

new disputed origin video this is peak

[@abra_escaped]

Not sure how "broken" pauldron is on him but being able to get the extra tankiness while also mitigating most of, if not all the speed downside if you also have more hp items is cool, plus having more shards makes fighting at range easier (now that the laser bug is fixed lol). The issue is that you can't really use the armor/attspd part of the shards because you end up with so little speed if they aren't spent

[@otamatonefan8996]

Stone Flux Pauldron never felt like the absolute worst item to me, as there are some tricks for it, and of course: excessive movement speed can be fixed by taking it, and a Stone Flux Pauldron also negates Shaped Glass' penalty for trading speed.

[@killer_bug8600]

ignore the haters the editing made me laff

[@alejandrocortinas4805]

Growth Nectar is pretty busted if you can actually set it up because 20% more stats each stack is kinda busted although there’s not many that are easy to keep up but a few are: safer spaces, warped echoes, bands, war horn or any other on kill/crit buff effect
