There's so many fighting games out there.
Street fighter, Smash bros, Mortal Kombat, Tekken, Guilty Gear, Injustice. But my personal favourite fighting game is Rivals of Aether. And I'm clearly not alone, it's small in comparison to some of the giants I just mentioned, but it still has a bustling pro scene, even under the restrictions we've seen ourselves in over the last year or so.
Now I know why I like rivals so much, but nobody really cares about that, do they? I wanna know why THESE guys like rivals, the pro players. The top 1%.
I want to know Why These Pros Chose Rivals of Aether.

Ey thanks man, was a pleasure talking to you. There were some good points in there somewhere ;)
Not only is this a great video, but it has the best explanation of rollback I've ever heard

Thanks! I wont let you know how long it took to do those simple animations though, it makes me feel sick just thinking about it
I keep forgetting how small this channel is considering the quality of content and the frequent releases. It's really cool that the pros took the time to talk to someone with ~1k subscribers. Honestly, I was on the fence since your "Problem with Heavys" video, but since the community seems this cool you made me want to take the plunge into this game.

Yeah the community is awesome, and the game is a ton of fun. You'd be surprised how far you can get by just asking people though, the worst that can happen is they say no, lol. But thanks, hopefully I wont be a small channel for long :D

I'm a year late to this but yea, it's the community. I effectively am retired yet I enjoy the community so much that I still run the local scene, regionals and majors included.
Yessssss! Rivals content!

Great video! At some points I thought I was watching some of those big-channel big-quality video essays but then I saw that you have 1k subs. Holy shit, the quality is amazing. You've earned a new sub :)

this was really interesting to watch, thank you for making it, it would've been interesting to hear which characters they played in the respective smash games

Dos mentioned playing sheik and luigi, but I didn't actually ask them that. You're right, maybe I should have. You wanna write questions for me in the future? ;)

Been following the channel for a while, and I now you make a video about the Rivals competitive scene which is something I am involved in and love. Another great video tho, keep it up. You’re videos are always a high quality enjoyable watch.

@@xaro9542 Oh right, that's awesome! It's quite weird to me that my Heavies video is my most viewed video. Because in hindsight, it's pretty bad. But people seemed to like it so I guess it must have something to it right
Thank god more Rivals content!
Very nice video!

They all said some quite funny stuff that I wasn't able to use, I'm considering making a second video with just random assorted clips from the interviews to show em off
Nice, I love rivals :)
Absolutely adore RoA
let's go sparx
this video is a year old but as a plat fighter historian (weirdo online) I wanna point out that smash did not invent the plat fighter genre, the outerfoxies did and going by the development dates of smash 64 you can tell that sakurai just kinda meshed the idea of the outerfoxies w a bunch of KoF mechanics and a ring out system

Smash didn't invent platform fighters
Yo I hear Sisters of Battle in the first 10 seconds and I upvote Edit: and Risk of Rain 2? yo my guy. Sign me up. I'd love to see some of the history of some of the scenes, New York, Florida, Arizona.
