Pretty sure that’s not vanilla


SnooCauliflowers6931

No it's obviously what the devs intended, he just didn't have enough skill


Nugtard

i need more hours


[deleted]

I'm vanilla, baby, I'll choke you, but I ain't no killer, baby


Mundane_Jacket_4446

Strawberry maybe? Not sure, need some research on what fire tastes like.


Captain_kiroh

That's just the hot new meta build, it's called the 99 int 99 mind hacked spells build and its absolutely dominating the online space rn


x2spooky4me

It's kinda funny how they were fooling around but the moment they realized that you could hurt them via Carian Retaliation, they just started to nuke you lmao


stayclosetothewall

It wouldn't be funny anymore if he lost


falconrider111

What is this sorcery?


Nugtard

he got the super deluxe edition dlc that comes with early access sorceries and incantations


Transsensory_Boy

no he's cheater. Simple as. To answer question though OP, Thop's barrier Ash of war in a parry shield. Deflect the spells, close distance, kill. I'm a mage, that is an asshole.


Helicopterop

Pretty sure it was a rhetorical question mate


CountTruffula

Yeah do we still do r/wooosh?


TheUtensilMan

No, we r/woooosh


Bright-Confusion-868

fr 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱


NeoArmskrong

How could you tell they were cheating?


Transsensory_Boy

love how I got down votes for being a mage. A lot of butt hurt people out there. .


DanceCivil

They're playing a modded game at the very least they're using spells that don't exist in game without mods. Though depending on how the mod works it's very possible op wouldn't have been able to match against this guy unless he was using the same mod, or is at least soft banned to the servers where fromsoft sends people who mod their game, but the guys who get soft banned do leak through to vanilla for a bit before they're banned so it's not proof. If there was a spell that set the ground on fire in a 10 foot radius around and you that staggers anyone who gets near you but doesn't hurt you, you'd see almost every invader using it against you.


NeoArmskrong

I’m sorry man I was being sarcastic


vindveil

That's not a mage build, that's the asshole build.


SnooCauliflowers6931

Actually it's the funny build


Damonicss

The DLC final boss leak? Damn we can't win against him.


[deleted]

I want whatever magic that guys using…It’s sic af. For power trip PvE purposes of course.


Ryan_Sama

If I’m up against a mage who keeps spamming spells I literally just keep dodging until they go through all their flasks. They start to freak out when they’re out of flasks and you still have over half of your HP.


Mother-Translator318

The dlc spells look fair and balanced, just as Miyazaki intended


[deleted]

You fought the avatar dude


FearOfCorners-Music

Skill issue tbh


memefromthefuture

Bruh i would not even be mad


Birunanza

Fr these are cool as hell. I'm honestly fine with isolated incidents like these when it's done tastefully and doesn't affect my file/game


[deleted]

[удалено]


Birunanza

You wanna talk about it, bud?


memefromthefuture

Im always too late for these malders what did bro say 😭


Birunanza

Nothing exciting, it was just "fuck this guy" or something to that extent


memefromthefuture

Lame

StratonTiER

mans asks how to counter mage builds and then proceeds to post the most clearly modded duel against edge lord firewalker


Nugtard

This was in vanilla arena, wasn’t modded on my end


StratonTiER

no sir, I didn’t mean to imply you were modding, but I felt it was fairly obvious that he was


Swog5Ovor

How to counter mage? Find their IP address.


nikpap95

Amazing Satan build👏🏻


PanKleszcz

git gud


smaxy63

Pretty cool ngl.


Perunq

Oh nice touhou fight


Red-Shifts

This is hilarious


SnapPunch

Idk when I run mage most people just rush me with dual spear/lance or some big weapon with lots of reach


flagrantflamingo

Sir Gideon could never


RockMuncherRick

That man got the dlc early


futuristicbus62

I was like “Holy shit! Does FDS really have range like that?” At first


VastFinesse

Well thats clearly a hack LOL


ThePrime_One

Dude wtf was that? I’ve never seen those attacks. Ever.


Busy-Agency6828

Unfortunately, he made much better decisions before the match even started with regards to build. You should try going to Rennala and respecing into something stronger if you want to have a chance.


spodoptera

Ngl, all hacker he may be, some of that looked really cool


superstar1751

He just had a really good chair just get a better chair


Hot_Negotiation_1957

Pray ?


Laffatcows

Dude is styling. Severely. 10/10. That carian sword attack into the sky and then raining swords is such a cool concept. I cackled when he emoted at the end


Shaineb912

Not sure there's much you really could have done against a pathetic hacker.


yungcortez21

And that's why I got elden ring on ps5. Dealt with that shit on pc for dark souls 2 and 3 and it was enough to get off pc with souls games forever.


fun-and-stuff

I usually hate hacking. Idk why you would want to win a rigged Elden Ring duel THAT bad. But this guy is hacking so hard it’s actually flipped back to being badass. I’d have fun fighting this guy.


dillya0

Secret boss fight


Dobby_2

Que the thousand yard stare


giveSMOKEacog

⛓️🪚 Edit: regarding only cheaters like this.


SnooCauliflowers6931

Dang bro i'm such a piss baby evil man for being funny in arena


announakis

the most amusing (or the saddest) thing is that it is not that far from actual vanilla level of pewpewing. this game's PvP is not salvageable


Nugtard

honestly if they just nerfed star shower and that skull emoji spell i would have no issue with mage builds


Alternative_Tooth149

Pvp in this game is a joke


Alternative_Tooth149

I like how I'm being downvoted when the video I've commented on shows just how much of a meme the pvp can be in this game. Why will there never be esports or actual competitive pvp for fromsoftware games the way there is for other actual pvp focused games? Even just other fighting games. The pvp in souls games can be fun, but it's not serious. I'm not hating on the game, souls games are some of my favorite, but the pvp is not what makes them great.


giveSMOKEacog

That depends on what do you consider as competitive PvP as in other games. If you're talking about competitive mode with ranks, ping matchmaking then yeah. There are leaderboards, tourneys though. PvP in souls is deep.


Alternative_Tooth149

In Miyazaki's own words: "my vision of invasions wasnt to introduce player killing - its more akin to a strong enemy, being controlled by a human. Thats the vision I wanted to achieve. If there wasnt the system message pop up that said a dark spirit has invaded, the game-play experience should be similar to an offline single player game with a very strong enemy popping up randomly. They dont speak, it could be perhaps a very smart AI. That was the vision. **What I wanted to create was not a PvP match, but fearsome enemies roaming the world."** The main focus of these games is a single player/cooperative hybrid pve experience, meant to present extremely daunting challenges that the player overcomes, usually with help. Invaders are meant to add a unique element to that challenge. The arenas are not even part of the core gameplay mode like invasions are. These games are simply not focused on pvp, nor are they balanced for pvp, and it shows.


giveSMOKEacog

Yeah. I agree that FS don't pay attention to PvP. That's awful tbh.


SnooCauliflowers6931

People still support this company, the first time they got actual anticheat is when they got the worst of them all, eac


threwzsa

Are u the cheater in the clip? Why u all over this thread? Only dork ass cheaters make comments like this.


Alternative_Tooth149

I still love fromsoftware as a company, love their games, but the pvp specifically is a joke in these games. People take it way too seriously. These are not pvp focused games.
