By limiting your Vergil play to just his projectiles, it does present more of a challenge. Visually, however, it looks more like Vergil not willing to go all out with everything he has, which is probably the greatest insult he could give to his opponents.

I love how that chokehold hallway was such a problem that you had to regain your humanity and remember your ultimate move just to get through. Also, a nasty trick I noticed with V's move is that you can stab enemies through your own back, so it would have been rather tricky to pull off here.

@@drizzy5721 I feel like the usage of the Yamato in this sense is comparable to the sheathe taunt, it's still technically *using* the Yamato, AND the taunt can deal damage; but it's still allowed, because it's not a direct attack with the weapon and the challenge would be nightmarish without it. On those grounds, you could probably argue World of V can be an exception in the same vein, provided that you do not do damage with the Yamato slash/summon.

Great video! However, you could have kept using the three swords air taunt even in S rank by keeping beowulf on, and if you worry about the jump damage in Beowulf, you can just unequip the move in the shop.

Okay, So Malphus. The bird and the demon girl on top have different 'stagger health'. However, they count as one enemy, and the demon girl is much easier to stagger. My approach to this fight is only attacking the bird's limbs when using the portal attack moves, therefore racking up stagger on the bird, and only attempting to attack funny demon girl when bird is down. This prevents the bird from going bonkers. Very fun.

Vergil spent too much time being V that he forgot how to use weapons.
Vergils motivation is all one needs to get through a playthrough of vergil in any dmc 😎👌
I thought of a challenge run for Vergil that was somewhat similar to this. I called it the "unworthy" challenge, in reference to the line "you are not worthy as my opponent" The rules of the challenge were that you couldn't _directly_ attack enemies with Yamato, Beowulf, or Mirage Edge, but you could still use summoned swords like in this video as well as the Doppleganger fighting the enemies on your behalf while you basically taunt the whole time. You could probably use the Doppleganger to knock down the giant bird boss as it's charging toward you One idea I didn't think of when I originally made up the challenge was a small loophole that while you can't directly damage an enemy, you can still parry the attacks that can be parried both to build up the DT gauge and look stylish at the same time.
You actually can skip mission 12 with multiple ways like jump up teleport second air combo some JC and you are there for the upper ones you can air stinger with edge sword.
love the humor you sprinkle here

You played this run like I played DMC2. No melee. All ranged. But it was much easier in 2. Only time I HAD to melee in DMC2 was mission 15, I think it was? The one where you have to kill all the enemies within the time limit. Even maxed out in damage, Ebony and Ivory couldn't do enough damage.
I’m sure there are people who know this fact, but there is a move that Vergil can do where if you lock on to an opponent, preferably one that mainly uses projectiles as their attacks, Vergil can actually deflect it with any of his weapons. Though you need high concentration for it to work, but even then, it’s really funny.

And thank you and everyone else for pointing it out, literally not even while editing did I consider that world of v would have been helpful, it wasn't even a thought in my head
I'd argue Vergil stabbing himself with Yamato into V and his nightmares don't count as weapon usage. It's a lot damage, a lot healing, and the movie is not listed among weapon skills either, it's a core ability. Incredible how far you went to solve problems but the simplest solution eluded you.

A little tip for anyone who wants to do this challenge: doing the world of v move actually regenerates health
I haven't done higher difficulties so idk if it works here but the mirage blades, the regular attack, fire out with no cap on how fast you can mash X. So if you have a controller with a Turbo button, it's... Kinda nuts. Of course, hardware gating the difficulty of the challenge isn't cool, but to those at home with like a 20 dollar controller off Amazon with a Turbo button... Fun facts, you know?

I think I've used World of V once or twice ever in casual play, and the fact that it makes enemies drop more green orbs was lost to the void of my mind along with the move itself when I was in the mindset of the run. I do think it would have been a cool use considering I favored V in my original no weapons challenge as well.
