What is the Hardest Skill in VR?

what is the hardest skill in VR I don't want to alarm you but I think I found it I've said Rumble is a hard game but this is something else a move so hard it took me to my mental limits on a journey of Faith friendship and despair in pursuit of a prophecy day a chosen one will come that could change VR forever I don't want to be too bold but I think this skill is vr's rocket League moment what got you into the game I saw a video about it where people were flying and I was like well this game's got the rocket League effect I guess yeah wait were you in that video I I haven't seen the video but to prove to myself I wasn't overhyping it I went back through all the skills I've accumulated in my v i relived my childhood with motion control boxing mive M movement despite screaming children in gorilla I traded my luck for Faith by beating a road life on the hardest difficulty come on we claimed a world record from a worthy adversary thank you Cameron for pushing me sort of suceeded in a PVP shooter you want to see a flying dying man and I grinded back to exper plus difficulty after I abandoned beat sa for rumble a year ago easy first try but all of that the second Channel content compared to one move in Rumble simply known as flick there are three reasons why this move is so hard to learn the first is that it's pointless in Rumble all structures are summoned with a pose and modified with a pose every structure has a damage Value Plus One when it's grounded plus one when it's moving guys we've been over this in the last video eventually you get to red belt and unlock hold just like telekinesis you hold the structure then apply a force so it breaks the hold and flies away simple then you get to black belt and unlock flick not so simple you use both hands to control both the position and rotation of the object hey no Discord sounds I'm learning the visual difference are these poke bits mean it's flick but the functional difference is unlike hold no matter how much force you apply to flick it will never look up every fresh black belt has their first thought I like to have fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun and they go to use flick in a match he's using flick wait a minute oh kill myself to quote Benny flick is not your friend fck is not your friend but what does Benny know anyway oh number three you see Rumble is very unique as a fighting game it's projectile based there is no hand-to-hand damage and when you consider flick has a very limited range a Meely move doesn't make as much sense and you can use hold to jump then straight a structure across the map or just ye it out of your hands like only fjm can do take this example you start your heavily telegraphed flail with a wall your opponent summons a wall to defend net zero is the most likely scenario in the rare best case maybe your opponent screws up letting you get four damage worst case scenario you get a wall straight to the face for five damage the most damage you can do with a summon structure now I'm no probability expert huh but the math doesn't check out and that's when I'm being generous because if I'm being honest it looks even worse unless as the wise thorx said I didn't just say I love abusing white belts on camera did I no no well this one guy in the Discord you bully lower belts who don't have a wall to protect themselves but once a bully finds someone their own size it doesn't work so well probably why this user removed themselves from the Discord this isn't to say there W some early attempts to make flick useful in The Meta like this flick trap or SD's iconic tutorial Flick I'll go over some actually useful points so if someone was hiding behind that wall I could flail this around around and hit that wall and they'll both break the next thing is really awesome curve balls straight things around objects so if someone was there I could have hit them with the ball I've ruined their cover it's pretty pretty useful look at this Gap catch your disc with it put it on the ground and fling it through gaps where you normally can't fit a disc super super useful sday was my first sente and I'm still trying to impress him that man is a saint so don't have any chronological snobbery because back then flick was so pointless the devs considered removing it but the last minute like they always tend to do a miracle [Music] occurred remember in the last video how I showed you if a structure doesn't hit you at the right speed it won't break and he just push you around well cimbo thought what if they could push you but up now flight's going to need its own video but just know that it was a bug that became a feature flick and flight are inherently tied together but I want to focus mostly on the non-flight uses what am I even supposed to do with flick when it's not flight related oh you Foolish Boy you foolish child I'll show you I'm a child flight was enough to save flick but it didn't stop the second reason why flick is so hard to learn flick is hard to learn because it's dangerous to you and not your opponent you know how I said worst case scenarios that you take five damage well I lie it's nine damage five from your opponent and four from yourself that's almost half your health in one mistake devastating flick is so sensitive that one little bump in the wrong spot de will interrupt a move that happened unintentionally when I was recording demo clips for this video shout out to yeat Master sub to him it only gets worse in real matches when you're flinging rocks around you're going to hit yourself whether you just do it from poor positioning or because you get interrupted and the rubber band shoots right back into you oh oh [Music] oh yes that's the problem with flick it'll come back and get you but the biggest reason why flick is dangerous is because VR is in first person hear me out the rumble hit box is no different to any other fighting game but in first person when you flail things around you can't see where you hit yourself so it's just you alone in the dark over hours and hours of practice creating a mental model of where your avatar is in 3D space can't be taught can't be demonstrated it can only be felt flict dedication courage Only the strongest of Wills Prevail a true Master pick up you know what before we get to the inspiring part you need to know the third reason why flick is so hard to learn and this is what I found hardest to overcome when I started this journey flick is so hard to learn because if you decide to pursue learning it there will be no one there to believe in [Music] you yo I just unlocked flick someone explain this to me please sure Flick's awesome so all you got to do is to use flick wait it's so if you just listen to Hey I just got mountain is there any way to get rid of a rock from flick it just kind of glues to my hand yeah that's the point you don't want to let go flick unless you choose to ground how do you release flick I can't seem to figure it out how the [ __ ] does flick work I get rid of a hold on anyone tell me the point confused about figur out the purpose flick yet flick point of flick is so you can have control over the structure whilst you flail it around I see doesn't seem very practical TV you just listen to me for a second I don't have all the answers but we can figure this outes anybody know a good way to use flick a good way to use flick funny joke LOL please just give it a chance what the hell is flick for I don't use it at all found a great use for flick I don't understand I know there has to be a reason Tred to use flick in aerial combat hit myself with a big stone for five damage always the result that's just not true use flick for anything but hitting myself and sweeping the park is there anyone who finds flick fun like me I love hitting myself with flick I must love it because I do it almost every time get out of my head I always is kind of dangerous to my heal it hurts me more often than it hurts the other fighter usually low flick is straight up cursed it's okay no one gets the point of not sure where I'm going to is trust me you need everything in this game kind of drawing a blank here is super having a rubber band overlap with it actually meets their requirement being wor I don't think I've ever used flick in a serious match flick is so good it's just a very unique play style one of the hardest to do consistently it's best use an aerial comat balls I'll show you I'll show you all the world will know the glory of flick and VR will never be the [Music] same [Music] I have long said that one day a chosen one will come a chosen one will turn the meta on its head by truly figuring out the power of flick who are you perhaps the chosen one has already arrived that name I see great potential in you where have I seen that name but what does Benny know anyway this isn't to say there weren some early attempts to make flick useful in the [Music] Met Jack and hoffart the two best players in Europe maybe the world aspiring Partners they'd been refined by each other's skill but that also meant they had very similar and equal play Styles we ran this simulation a thousand times and not once if we learn anything as fate had it they would be pitted against each other in very first Rumble tournament one of them would have to bring something different to the fight if they wanted to win Hufford the scientist only cared for Pure functionality and combat flick bad he closed his mind to Fringe ideas but Jack got any good theories on how to use flick in actual combat yet he was curious and his reward was a breakthrough OMG I just got a great idea on how to use flick huh what this will counter one of your habits at Jack we'll see who will be laughing then somehow it'll work flick is the most OP move ever people just don't know it yet the prophet had seen the way but just not the when or how Hof's mind Palace remained impenetrable ultimately it would be up to their Earth bending to prove one of them right the match begins 3 2 it wasn't hard to predict what would happen next y everything work dead we were still working out the Kinks at the first tournament the format was as follows it's best of three rounds to a game and 12 games to a match just like in chess where white always moves first so to in Rumble is there an asymmetric element as a P2P game players take turns as host with no lag and client with the Ping disadvantage meaning whoever can overcome the odds first wins Jack is the first to win a client R but quickly Jack fumbles the bag when he speed discs pushing him back over a down wall causing him to skip out of the map I hate that mechanic skill issue then it's hopwood's [Applause] turn but Jack isn't interested in losing no don't even try no chist is 20 minutes and 12 matches in we're at the tiebreaker is it already the 66 mhm W that SS quick we've yet to see Flick be used once so it begs the question so when are you using your flick when you Le expect it that's when these days we've refined the rules so that tibre don't go on as long but back then it was first client not just to win a round but a full game this means it's very easy for matches to go on indefinitely you win you lose it's not until an hour in the Jack gets his next chance two more soundsets with a beautiful Boulder one two puff gets both hits knocking jack off the map he's still has one chance to close this off in an hour however something's missing flick has yet to make an appearance and so it was not destined to be was Jack bluffing exhaustion was setting in you need to remember Rumble is a physically and mentally exhausting game as the rounds piled up so did the amount of unforced errors Jack speed discs knocking himself off the map or stot a wall when he's too close to the edge it's been nearly 40 minutes since either of them has had a single client round but finally using an iconic chip damage style Jack finds his window but Huff isn't going to just roll over with expert movement Huff what Dodges Jack's signature ball Onslaught and all it takes is a single wall hold return to knock Jack out you yes that's how easy it is to lose when you're on fire this is best of three Jack still has a chance both Fighters are past the point of exhaustion it's been almost 2 hours now then out of nowhere in the third round of the 33rd game just the right time like it always does a miracle occurred I told you I told you I told you I was going to win and I told you I using flick flick is op was it a freak accident or a meta changing play it was hard to tell the only certain conclusion the one Jack the match Jack uses hold on the Fallen wall H tried to straighten then ground but it was out of range and instead of going straight for the kill Jack reinforced himself by flicking the wall and in the process broke through H's mental Powers but amazing as it was I'd argue that that wasn't the tournament match that changed the path flick yeah exactly it was this [Music] one Jack my very first tournament match against Jack well good Lu have fun and no it wasn't because he was winning so much he decided to use a flick trap on me I saw right through it and it only worked once it was my very first competitive match and I was decimated I had no defense against Jack's chip damage sty you're bad not being a short King I'm at a disadvantage should take balls or I should probably say boulders to the face I mean I could duck but when you're duck you're not in the right position to summon and I've just not that agile in fact in the name of transparency you should probably see the biggest bag fumble in Rumble history I was host I got Jack to one Health whilst I still had over half of mine then for the next 47 seconds Jack evaded everything I threw at him until this happened oh my go oh my gosh oh my holy [ __ ] six damage from the giant boulder which knocked me backwards into the second giant boulder oh my again I had the hostage that's not even close I got to tell you when that happens your half full health bar starts to look half empty I had lost the mental game CLI that did I oh no one HP comebacks this time 6 to them I'm down and out but they don't call me The Comeback Kid for nothing I'll never give point I immediately lost how do you spam Boulders so many times nice yeah that Boulder game I need to that's that's what I need to work on do you want to keep keep going 12 Jack was kind enough to see the last matches through if you want to be the best you got to be bested so I'm ready to keep getting my ass handed to me that's a good after that match I worked on increasing my movement reaction and Pace but that wasn't going to be enough I needed to find a gap in The Meta he has no weakness he has no weakness what Jack didn't know was that by absolutely destroying me he created a self-fulfilling prophecy flick is the most OP move ever because in my pursuit to find a way to beat him I had one unique advantage over everyone else and that's you can't find out that moves are useless if you have no one to play with Guess Who's laughing now me I'm [Music] laughing in the dark days of Rumble living in Australia no one was online so all I could do was practice and practice and practice yeah I saw the coin slot and I thought it was cool and yeah I might have done a flick trap or two but I wanted to develop a new move using flick who cares if it wasn't used by others in combat I was having fun like Copus I would make progress in training every day and then I'd take my training into an actual match but that's the thing about Copus one must imagine him happy oh I didn't get over it because if you have enough fun and the right inspiration you never know what it might lead [Music] to you save yourself I'll save myself this time around you save yourself I'll save you to next time around I'm not around yep that would kill someone get back down please let me down D it I'm trying to think of ways to counter it help train you didn't what I flicked it into you click everybody discounts it when I discovered the aloop in practice I had no idea it was actually combat effective but because it was it revealed to me two concepts number one the principle of the second just give me one second here hereit at high level play it can be very hard to hit your opponent reaction times are so good people can Parry almost anything oh my gosh I very surprised about that one or just cancel your structure with another structure or Worse return it right back at you so what if you were to just assume that your first hit would be blocked or parried Y could just hold that Cube for me for a second and instead focus on the second hit if you're lucky the base Cube will hit them but really it's just a distraction to let you go all in on the wall that is the scariest move I've ever seen but it's also about positioning which led to principle number two the dance dance for Combos and Rumble positioning is vital if you're too close you will fail to be Miner if you're too far and your flick will be out of reach the principle of the dance uses the push back of your hit on the cube to set you up in the exact position for the right dash jump to end enter into the convo and since you're catching the wall on the way down you can continue your swing through of the flick pose so it goes under your feet and back over your head to hit but before we go on I got to give you a disclaimer a lot can go wrong you can miss the flick and be completely punished nice try a good player can still use anti-air combos against you and as a bad player you'll keep trying the same thing expecting different results okay the stand it out you you've got a good breed on like I said before little tap in the wrong place and that rubber band flicks right into you or almost likely you will still hit yourself oh I hit myself oh oh no goodbye I began losing more matches but come on I was having fun oh no I can't get that one as you can clearly see from these clips the most important thing was I was learning how to use flick better I'm deteriorating the original aloop came from wanting better than awkwardly trying to combo up Fallen wall however this has become my least used version of the move there are so many variants that this unlocked you can set up your own ALU instead of swinging the wall under you you can do a 360 to keep the wall extended away from you this makes it safer but the disadvantage is you break line of sight but the more I use flick the more I got the sense the feel and I could flick it around my body while still facing forward I had ultimate control my destiny I am going to fulfill it I will fulfill it I okay look at this point yeah I still losing a lot and people still hated flick but in theory this move filled an important Gap in The Meta in theory you could rise above Boulder spam it's getting bullied out here turning a longrange slugfest into Close Quarters combat Landing with the advantage why because when landing on structures from above you can destroy your opponent's defenses with your feet without taking damage and then hit them with your wall I'm coming oh there we go oh no damage that's the secret to an aggressive aial style if they try and dash under you you can quickly 180 to still get them it's also pretty hard to track players in the air to summon anything in Rumble you need to be looking straight forward so if someone is looking up at you in the air they can't summon anything if you fall short of your target you can ground the wall which is the strongest defense you can have and it's faster than summoning a wall just follow through to get damage or you can extend your range with a flow Stone double jump but as much as I'm selling this to you damn it was still just a theory sorry to too soon that was too soon I was still a sideshow a freak of the game you fight really weird The Meta was unchanged and people would still rather use hold over flick I needed more the advantage of hold is it only connects to one hand that means you can move your hands freely to instigate any other poses while still holding the structure flick on the other hand is on the other hand as well it takes the average position of both hands allowing you to control the rotation which hold can't to that also means you can't easily instigate any new poses during flick especially a dash but then I thought what if you start your momentum before you flick but but you can't flick a grounded object but but but what if you use a cube launch on an existing Cube to unground it and jump still carrying the forward momentum then flick the structure midair to smash down and thus the ravoo technique was B done perfectly the rabo technique will let you jump over a wall and punish your opponent which is exactly what happened in this clip now some would argue incorrectly you could still do that with hold but why would I argue for flick one word control hold is great for a projectile aerial style but that's not the close range mely aerial style I was working on since hold isn't that sticky if you move too quickly you'll break your hold and believe it or not but centrifugal force is a thing in this game and for an effective rabo you better believe we're whipping that thing around you need to use the unique property of flick to rotate a wall over another wall quickly hey guys it's shoess with another Rumble move tier list today today we're looking at the rabo technique to do it right you're got to be completely open it's highly situational and the range is super limited so I'm going to put it in detail hang on a minute did he just do a 360 um well that kind of looks fun so wait I don't remember filming that I swear to myself I'd never do a tier list what's happening to me although this move was kind of a dead end it gave me an insight into the nature of flick as opposed to alyo fails ouch I damaged myself a lot less with rabbaru but why in Rumble a structure only breaks if it hits you at the right speed pause the video now and let me know in the comments what you think is going to happen of course he gets hit it's obvious but we'll come back to this example the aloop waits for the structure to fall so if you hit it while you're Rising it's falling you do the math genius perfect the raro has you matched the rising speed spe of your launch structure if you're going in the same direction as an object it's not going to have enough speed to break bet you didn't think that was going to happen turns out you also get the protection if you have the same rotational direction as the structure Ro you like Ro R yeah um interesting tech byac there but also expertly demonstrated by fjm with his Rocky ribbon dance and it also shows why you got to be careful on Landing keep up the good fight shus plus spinning just feels really cool so cool I wanted to do it more I wanted to do it on the ground nice [Music] yes Rumble like I said is mostly a projectile game this means most attacks go straight down the line at high level play when spawn pace is high the whole match can look like a bunch of net zeros until someone makes a mistake that's boring predictable but flick is unique it hits in an arc what seemed like a weakness before was actually a skill issue a lack of imagination and who says flick is useless because no other move can easily get behind structures that was useless then actually because when you flail just right you completely changed the game God holy [ __ ] you avoid net zeros you can do more damage oh you dodged it even if many of the attempts ended in a trade I'd still take that unbeneficial financial transaction any day of the week because I was having fun usually it's a situational move to use on full inst structures but I'd unground a wall just so I could do it and let me remind you flailing is faster than summoning and even when you do trade you usually have advantage on the followup damage since your opponent can't summon in a knockback state I'll Dash past it and then flick it like that that's insane Flick's awesome don't listen to anyone you just have to practice the sure you can hold bash's structure into someone it's expected predictable boring the opposite of flick however you got to know your limitations don't show them so if you miss ground straight away unless you don't feel like it because you have control over your own mind hey that's the magic flick word control control over Escape my jump didn't haveen control of your personal space Oh no just like Jack control over what structures you let your opponents use by pulling them out of range that's right or even into range so they knock themselves off the map [ __ ] I'll sacrif I got bed I got risky I wanted to spin and even though I was turning my back on my opponent giving them all the time in the world somehow it worked oh nice that was legit legitimately call me off G just be careful no one steals the flick from you because if someone flicks your flick then you get flucked then I thought what if instead of waiting for a a very situational flick I set my own up rather than going over a structure for an alud what if I go under it a reverse ALU you know what I'm going to cut this section short this was a really stupid and pointless move again so risky to turn your back and I was feeling Flick's limited range even though I was inventing stuff I was still getting worse at the game My plays were too risky and my goals of fulfilling Jack's prophecy and changing The Meta felt further away than ever I was doing more damage but it was just to myself you keep hitting yourself there you have such little health over oh you're killing yourself were you supposed to hurt yourself shouldn't have done that with so little Health oh it was you yeah it was too too dangerous this play [Music] style but what I discovered with the set of all my new moves was even more failure got me the and the tough part was when I reverted back to traditional gameplay I had more success began to doubt myself and as I showed my moves to more people third reason of why flickers so hard came back to haunt me I started to hear a collection of words an insult to my play style term so cutting and offensive I'm going to give a trigger war that was get out of here 50 pants I want to see your moves yeah I've been out of this game for a little bit but now I have to die to something so are you just like a [ __ ] what is that get lost in the sometimes fine I'll show you the uncensored cut L you guys make me make a patreon for bonus content or some crap like that pants Fancy Pants stylish flashy wizard get lost in the flare sometimes yeah you got to not be afraid to die to learn the new stuff to push boundaries even if I hurt myself more than anybody else does one day I won't you have to agree me from the past has a point I didn't want this fun to lead to flashy I wanted functionality not flashy failure and that's exactly what all my new moves were leading to but Rumble it's a science and in science failure is success in progress I just made that quote up credit me I'm the source looking at the data I had a common type of fair no when in the air flicking things around sometimes I would bump myself with the structure off the map careful we covered breaking speed but that was about stopping self- damage now I wanted to use the idea of bumping myself to create a movement option that's not a new idea because it's the mechanic that made flight possible but flight was always done with flick reinforced by hold to control it flick only flight was thought to be too wild and stretchy to control I said we're not talking about flight but I didn't want to fly I just wanted to see if I could use that bump to push me in the right direction instead of you know losing all my matches instantly what the hell this way this way I wanted a GTFO kind of move sorry about that eat myself way up with a cube and use that flick structure to bump myself towards the opponent but I just couldn't consistently replicate the bump sometimes it worked okay that was it that was it but I don't know what what the hell did I do different most of the time I just look like an idiot this is the next the next level of cube I've only just I'll probably die no no oh do you just use click or yeah I use flick for this one and I could not figure it out no it's too hard at the same time The devs Tweak the stickiness of hold leading to new tech that vvac showed me oh yeah I practiced that once before but is it more effective now that they've changed hold a bit I think what the oh holds on to that's cool it used to break wow and I could slide it with my hand SP directing cool you'll have to forgive me but with the discouragement of flick that's such a new move I religiously hunted the Puppet Master a hold base move and I got good at it that was practically a parallel park care how my health is I'm going to get the shot but I could only fight my calling for so long oh and despite my flick fails a funny thing started to happen I'll show you and then slide [Music] it okay do you sure L I missed your name when I I was recognized by my use of flick and I saw that the poor heathens of Rumble didn't even know the correct name of the Sacred move really interesting to see someone using twist at all the last guy I fought literally just said oh I haven't found use for sling yet could they be blamed and you can grab things in the air how can they use a move they don't believe in so that's what that useless move is used how can they believe in a move they have not heard and how can they hear without someone preaching to them oh sorry this is accidentally my Bible study no it's my bad as I used flick in more matches oh so too did my opponents oh I love to see it yes that was so good but I could give them the encouragement I never have God damn it it's the same time use my experience of failure to exploit Flick's weaknesses oh I hit myself punishing with antiair combos picking the right matchups Beats Pill didn't choose the right thing but pillar beats giant boulder with the right timing it's like sad how much that happens I had that perfectly planned out and ever so slowly the truth was becoming unable do you see the utility monkey see do oh nice dude oh Dam I love you trying I got to learn how to use flick until my opponents that's the way to use that failing anymore that was cool that if you miss you got to ground it straight away makes me hit myself a lot less when I started doing that for the second time I was beginning to believe see flick flick is useful so good I would stand firm when persecuted for my faith flick is not your friend number three the flick meta I'm going to be honest with you she I've never once used flick in a game I'm not surprised I don't see the practicality of it I have to be like right in someone's face and I don't really like that it's a whole school of thought you're going to have to teach me this school of thought real quick you flick once if you miss you ground it it's like an All or Nothing thing I I hit the flick or I don't hit the flick there's no Second Chances with this I mean how many hours do you have in almost 300 now okay once you get to 300 then you [ __ ] kidding me no no that's and then it takes about another 300 hours to master flip okay so so after the initial 3 was one Epiphany away from unlocking the whole Destiny of flick and it took a speeding fast Rock to knock the lies out of my head wait what you know in the last video and even in this video when I said these numbers are obviously all made up and I have no idea what I'm talking about turns out that was true because I did know nothing by pure luck or should I say fate in this one clip it clicked ironically because I was too cautious with flick I was pulling the structor into me too slow and I would hip as I was losing my upwards momentum but when I accidentally got a rock stuck in a tree and jumped freeing it I realized it doesn't matter how fast the structure hits you at all as long as you're going in a similar Direction it will not braak this was the Breakthrough I needed [Music] after just a little bit too much disc spam I went back to the high dive and this time I cracked it that's a new move I was too gentle before now I had my GTFO move but I Begg the question if you can bump yourself forward can you bump yourself to change direction because that would mean instead of fully exposing yourself while setting up a rabo you could Dash perpendicular to your opponent behind cover launch it then use that Cube to Bunny Hop back towards your opponent you just put it under you while you jump high you make it sound so easy just going to go here but if you're safe moving in the same direction don't you run for me and you don't even need the cube launch I'm practicing some new moves so probably going to hurt myself a lot oh no okay nice one the spiral staircase to Heaven would sometimes catch my twinkle toes and descend me so high I literally saw Jesus sitting at the right hand of the Father in heaven but when it worked when was this discovered I just made it up yesterday it worked yeah that's Innovative as [ __ ] ow didn't get out of the way F EX for the times it didn't work what oh the problem was I wasn't going big enough have you ever seen a cockroach get squished by a rock bro I haven't played in so long please chill where are you oh my God shoess it's pretty good that's not to say I hit every time yes yes but when flick showed its ugly weaknesses again come on ambulance somewhere along the line I'd learned to adapt not for me oh oh holy so now almost nothing could interrupt oh nothing could interrupt my flip oh that did not redirect the turret you the power of flick my friend I could feel it the control I didn't need the second jump when I could just roll the structure around my body to give a cork screw AR which protects my wall on both takeoff and Landing whilst bumping me forward fast something you could never do with the [Music] hole what was that pick off through the wall wait how are you doing that I can't believe the sorry I'm so trained on my hole exactly that's what it's for but then why even bring a structure to my opponent when I could Uno reverse theirs at this point watching this is like accepting my Al oops were feeling left behind but you remember the Pua Master right why not add one little extra hole to any aloop to strike from ground and air at the same time overshoot from above oh it f me all the way through that hit them from below and if they start to catch on I I always do that I'm like how do I escape this so I just jump and every so often everything aligns stop it that no okay look we're going pretty quick there you ready for something dumb that I'm been practicing the Puppet Master moves are like a whole journey of their own that I'm speed running now I don't want you to think that I'm grateful for the explosive growth but I do want you to know that you robbed me of the small channel experience where I grind away for years refining my voice your actions have consequences and because you didn't listen I shouldn't be making videos you shouldn't be watching them we should all be playing R now I'm going to need to make a second Channel where I can hyper focus on specific moves but this time I will make lesser quality content to discourage subscribers that is weird but it's funny that's why it's called shoe lesson all I want to do is play Rumble so yes I know I will regret this decision where were we oh yeah the era hasn't ended yet each Discovery unraveled even more thread compounding upon itself what was useless in the reverse ELO became vital practice for the timing of my movement onru leading to the thread the needle and all that practice meant I could even add juggling structure combos before launching into aerial attacks for mixups we're not even talking about flight the control I could feel it I was able to fly on anything from anywhere bumping around using only flick the moves started to combine mix it together let's make it more dangerous what the hell is that uppercut the launch structure so they move for their rising and create a more aggressive yet safer setup Immaculate but it wasn't enough I needed more more control it was all connected cross the map my failures my successes my fun it didn't matter it was all along the same path spinning spiraling moving to the center but never quite reaching it always getting closer to the truth but never finding it please I need more flick show me yourself and then it happened [Music] I felt it specifically in my left shoulder the sacred spiral wow I just managed to spiral around that's good round by bumping a structure to your side and spinning at that same time you can hunt your targets down from above that was some wow you redirected like three times in there now that we are found the sacred pattern only unlocked by the power of flick never again will Rumble be a straight line game no and combined with the Ford assault iterations of the Puppet Master what originally was the worst case scenario super super useful I'm still trying to impress her that man is a saint became my best case scenario I didn't think that would get you there was like a trailing Cube there but I the ball destroy it oh so fast how much health was that half it was a massive attack this is where the story takes a dark turn not not to spread the gospel of flick without being asked but I can show you I was teaching as much as I could one-onone is there anything flick is really useful for if you're going to be a world class athlete you need flick but going one at a time was too slow if you start using flick you will get worse before you get better cuz you'll probably like hurt yourself a lot like that I'd made one video to help the rumble community in fact that's where the prophecy came from and I thought I'd be content the first one to start is called a high dive what the heck seeing the hunger for knowledge I gave into temptation bro that you did it so easily although I thought I'd got out unscathed from anywhere I'm so impressed by that this game is nuts it blows my mind I was only able to believe that lie for 65 days [Music] wait are you shoess from YouTu uh I do have a YouTube channel yeah is it name shoess I thought you said shius shoess dude I watch your videos no way I was trying to copy one of your moves where it's like you go up with a wall loose you're like popping it up with like uppercut and then you held the block and then you jumped in the air with the flow stone and you held this too but like with a better hold jeweling Puppet Master yes without me even knowing flick was spreading yes like a virus did you teach me how to do that got to show me some cool moves okay I'll try no way I've never seen what people were talking about until now oh he's getting it he's getting it that's what you did in the video the Rumblers we're beginning to believe oh that oh my God can't even tell it's going on half the time ni I have no idea how to deal with it cuz I just haven't developed the counter skill yet all of the things you're doing have such a high skill floor that's a dick move you being able to set [ __ ] up like that and it's just clean I love it it's like watching a magician you can come around any structure from any angle usually it's a very punishable move I you're very good at keeping the object you're too good at that all of Flick's limitations now felt like a distant memory oh nice recovery not you're definitely the best player you win oh you just haven't played enough people a memory that was due to resurface yeah I got so much thing now definitely don't sleep on twit it's the hardest move it takes the longest to learn but shoess man I challenge you to a duel to the death well maybe not death anyway I challenge you want to see those fancy moves of yours put to use I hope that I too can unlock a fraction of the true power flick [Music] holds I haven't had any warmup so we'll see how this goes pretty quickly I realized this was unlike any of my other matches his pace and movement was like nothing I'd ever seen and even if I was pulling off my moves with perfect execution was just so slippery I knew the perfect way out of every trade the dark it did buy me some time actually I got to get serious now you loose and all too quickly I was reminded of the feeling of taking boulders to the face I needed to get up into the air you know what my only goal is to just get a hit on you and try and teach you the glory of flick of course but the pressure was getting to me in my first usumaki I pulled the structure too high and hit myself directly in the confidence but that was just the start of my troubles oh my gosh I'd get anti-air I'd get the timing wrong oh no get read like a book he knows to set up he knows what it looks like get punished on Landing I get disappointing looks from my parents when I told them I wanted to be a VI Sports professional no no no ah still too risky on this map you almost had me there if you hadn't fallen off the map you lose when it works it's good I just high risk High reward that is your play I hate to admit it but Panic took me to Grand level play I even reverted to a shameful projectile aerial style at points and sure I won a few rounds but I was missing the entire Point even though there was no score or leaderboard this wasn't a casual match long said that one day a chosen one will come I no longer cared about winning more games than Jack thank you chosen one will turn the meta on its head by truly figuring out the power of flick because this match would decide the fate of flick you win the chosen one has already arrived because if flick worked on one of the best players in the world it can work on anyone we both flick up and it wouldn't just be Jack and I that believed in is Jack learning the way of flick now Jack has his own flick style oo did you see what I said to that guy Marco Polo in the rumble Kai Discord yesterday what did you say I'm like you need to talk to the flick God shoeless but make sure you have the required 300 hours to train looks like Jack might be the next flip God here Annie was right turns out Jack wasn't waiting around for a flick Messiah he had some tricks of his own I started to doubt my place in all of this the flick FL until I took another Boulder to the face oh my gosh those it's still those Boulders you know you you made me invent my play style like I give the credit to you from our first VRE match where you just annihilated me with Boulders I was like I have to get off the ground oh this rematch I had one thing that Jack could never have more failure under my belt than anyone could possibly imagine so when he pulled out his flick Tech I knew how to give him an unprofitable financial transaction I like it Jack I like it what what come on you got to use those tricks against me I invented those trcks yeah I was so lucky that just just Out Of Reach coming back just Out Of Reach my head I saw the window I had time to think I couldn't give up I needed to focus I needed to have fun it didn't matter if he was the slipperiest player in the game literally sometimes slipping through through the atoms of the brck that that went through your body on my screen if I cleaned up my moves then I could at least get him with the followup and eventually I knew in theory flick would work so it it even works on Jack Jesus Christ oh [ __ ] he's just too strong I just oh that's this three okay it's going to land there and I'm waiting and I'm fting and I'm fting and you're just flying around above me got to watch where you going J I missed the pur master so double wall uppercut the First wall jump flick jump I get the theory but I'm G some practice before actually doing it trying to do what you did to Huff what in the tournament CH I try to do this again stupid oh Jesus Christ so you see if you flick something you can spiral around yeah it looks really good your play style is perfect for making montage videos because it's just so cool moments when you first hit your combos he's just a better player that's all there is to it know that the flame God this guy is the best in the game at using flick at maybe not for long though if I have a say about it oh please I'm going to need a lot of practice yes it begins so did I fulfill the prophecy that depends if if you asked me right after this match I would have said no but it's not really up to me to decide I guess we'll have to see how many Rumblers take up the new skill tree with all the flick moves speaking of which something Jack said in that match stuck with me but had that flick worked I mean howly sh it was such a perfect moment oh I saw my life flash before my eyes you tried to flick that back into me I'm trying what you said Jack to grab someone else's structure now that's part of the meta oh and something else to clear up if you had a Keen Eye you would have seen that not every clip was my own a curious and brave few have already taken up the challenge of the hardest skill in V the hardest skill yes but maybe not the hardest move and it's been a few months since then and there's a lot more Tech but to explain this move you'd need to understand flight dang it why do I need to make another whole video this one already took so long I swear if I go over 30k we're not doing this video the flick meta I'm going to be honest with I've never once used flick in a game I'm not [Music] surprised yeah you play like that yeah at Le at least you know is not your friend I've got an idea water bending now how do I do that what am I even supposed to do with s when it's not sight oh you Foolish Boy you foolish child I love to see this aerial flip style I'm getting back into it's pretty pretty useful oh nice straight off wait how are you do [Music] that like like I get that that works but it's all about control right [Music] so that [Music] mechanic I told you I was going to win I told you ick is [Music] op GG man GG you see how low I am there I'm not even in the comic Club I shouldn't be making videos you shouldn't be watching them we should all be playing R so it's not funny when you encourage me into a bad habit [Music] what are you even doing go play rumble or I guess you can watch a video about Rumble at least
