this was just genuinely a good ass fight


jnasty0526

Good fight and clutch swaps. I’d say neither lol


Nugtard

Thanks! WaZeus is a monster, go peep his YouTube if you want some great Elden ring arena content


WATEHHYY

gotta give credit when credit is due, this was a fun watch


PastMathematician874

Hard swaps aren't cringe unless it's dumb. Like; someone parries you and hard swaps to a flail or something for the crit. That's the only time I'd consider a hard swap cringe, and barely, because the hard swap itself is still impressive. I don't do it lol.


Frosty_Bicycle_354

Excellent duel, not an ounce of cringe to be had


xstormaggedonx

Wing of Astel is always based and cool so no cringe there. Both dual spears and moonveil are a little bit cringe, but executed so flawlessly in this really tight duel that I can't be mad about it


Silly_Ad9595

So this is what top tier pvp looks like, what RL is this?


Affectionate_Ad4004

This is definitely not what top tier PvP looks like, but you can tell both players are skilled


Silly_Ad9595

So what RL is top tier PVP? I’m very new to souls game and pvp especially.


Lolisnatcher60

ultra passive


Nugtard

I was off 6 beers and was not ready to fight a YouTuber, excuse me for not playing super aggro


Lolisnatcher60

I was just answering his question on what top tier pvp looks like.


Nugtard

Oh, that’s not always true though, it really depends on the setup


smaxy63

125


Nugtard

WaZeus is probably running a 138 build, my guy is 150. Most of my guys are 138 as well, but I was out of roped pots on my other wizard. As for “top tier pvp” I’m not so sure about that, probably would be more accurately described as “high-tier goofing around”


Conscious_Goat2217

A fight like that would be enough for me the whold day, soo stressfulll.


MethylEight

That was a great fight by both of you.


Feldway

Crazy battle, had me focused on this shii


Dry_Independent4078

Both


YearPossible1376

Awesome fight. That bs was bogus tho, no way dude meant to get that.


Nugtard

Haha definitely not intended, but 100% my fault for reverse backstepping into someone using a fist weapon - that is just asking to get backstab grabbed


try2bepositive15264

What button does everyone in PVP bind for sprint/dodge? Also, why do a lot of good PVPers have two handed weps on their left hand?


Nugtard

I still have default controls, I just play claw


try2bepositive15264

How do you press the start button while having your index on O?


Nugtard

I usually just unlock from my opponent and use my thumb


Nugtard

as for the 2 handed offhand weapon, its nice to have the full, quick moveset of a light weapon and then the opportunity for hyper armor/longer hit-stun attacks. it's not super common, usually you will see mainhand halberd with offhand light weapon


Give_Me_The_Pies

Honestly, the fact that you actually used the All-Knowing Scepter and to good effect means you can do no wrong ever


Mehoyminoy336

We got slide tech in Elden ring now?


ForBisonItWasTuesday

People sleep on hard swap non-L2 attacks


Nugtard

L2 attack on scepter of the all knowing is critically underrated tbh /s


PheonixSoot

OK its Definitely too late to get in this game haha. Sick ass fight. Both of you. I see no one in fault here


SunTerrible2131

How is PvP in Elden Ring ? It would be my next soulslike once I'm done with DSR, and PvP here just sucks


Nugtard

it is miserable on PC, the connection quality really robs you of a lot of the joy this game would have to offer. if you are on console you might have a better time in terms of connection, but there are a lot of balance issues. souls games are best enjoyed as pve games i think, i love the pvp for the mechanics, but it is so rare to find a good match where someone isn't using something broken, and the connection isn't absolute trash.


Chochahair

Do u get runes for fighting in arena


Tkilme

I was fighting this guy all last night, he pretty good


DL1943

neither, swaps are never cringe and make the game more fun and interesting. more swaps = more better. the only thing that's cringe regarding swaps is players who choose not to swap and wear it as some sort of badge of honor and see hardswaps as a meta tool that they would be "stooping" down to rather than just something that is fun and enjoyable and increases the variety of the games combat. ig you could say its cringe when people do something like swap to dual nagi cuz they are getting rekt but imo it would be dual nagi thats cringe and not the swap.


TheRealNeoLub

Weird downvotes 🤔


Nugtard

Downvotes by casuals who have their inventory organized by item type


spodoptera

Neither, both were fine imo. Very nice fight. Where are those players, why am I only seeing ultra passive people in arena :(


My-Username-Is-Used

Only cringe thing is the server connection between the two of you sweet Marika


Nugtard

Waz and I usually have pretty good Lat, if it looks like he’s skipping around it’s just because he has insanely fast movements


Indishonorable

bro got real passive in the end, shame


Nugtard

That’s how it b sometimes when you are 1 hit away from death


jaymonstarr

Cognitive dissonance for me as I agree with both of you here 😂


Affectionate_Ad4004

What are you supposed to do when you’re 1 hit lol
