BOTW's Most Anime Combat Of 2022 Explained
User Breneko obliterates a Guardian in Breath of the Wild, but how did he pull it off? We go behind the scenes and explain how each trick was done step by step.
At this point you’re probably wondering, “How did they pull this off? And what…
Thanks again to @bre_Neko for pulling this amazing clip off!
The explanation of all this feels even more anime than the attack itself.
Guardian: "Nani!? But how!? How did you coordinate such an attack!?"
Link: pushes up glasses "It was quite simple, you see. Precisely 2 minutes ago, ten miles south of this location, I fired 3 arrows into the sky, 2 degrees left of Orion's Belt. I knew that you would be standing still precisely at this location, at this time of day, at this moment in our battle. All I had to do was wait for you to get cocky and try to fire your blast at me. My acrobatics were merely a distraction from the incoming aerial attack that I fired precisely 2 minutes ago. Once the shots hit their target, I knew you'd be too dazed to react in time, in which I took advantage of your lowered defenses and came in for the for a rushing strike."
Guardian: "I was foolish to underestimate your cunning."
(This whole conversation occurs in slow-mo, during the 0.2 seconds after the attack in which the guardian is launching in the air, upside down).
rocket science
insane how they keep finding out new mechanisms
i just don't feel like doing combat anymore because it got so complicated
At this point I’m not even gonna try to understand what he’s doing
Nintendo has made the best combat style even tho 99.99% of it is unintentional
Link no kokyu, ichi no kata: Hekireki issen
Thats not anime like, thats godlike
When I saw this I was eager to try out that ATR that sent the Guardian flying, but I couldn't do it. So fast forward a few days and I was making a combat clip with a bunch of lizalfos and in one of the clips I thunderclap rushed to a Lizalfos even when there was a Lizalfos going in my rushes direction. What ended up happening was that the Lizalfos in the way of my rush was sent soaring.
Guys, the game released 5 years ago, let it go
this is effing insane!
Tbh i thought of actually doing this.
for one second
7:24 I about fell over. Using stars as iron sights? Gotta love mathematics, and/or the multitude of trial and error.
This is awesome 😂
Can your furry rush across the map?
"Dropped many jaws" bro how did he know my jaw dropped ????????? my bad I thought it was funny because my jaw dropped while watching this lol
These are wayyy too many steps for me to try. But I just appreciate watching. In fact, I appreciate how this game is STILL giving us these gems all these years later. IMHO, it's the games replayability which makes it the greatest game ever made.
Thunder breathing First form: Thunderclap and flash GODLIKE SPEED
Link: Omae wa mou Shindeiru
Guardian: NANI!?
