Transcending [music] history and the world, a tale of dudes and souls eternally retold. [music] Yo, my god. Hi chat. Hello. It is early. It's very early. This is I didn't wake up that long ago, okay? [laughter] Listen. Um hi, we're back. It's a bit earlier uh for good reason. We talked about it last night. Marvel Rivals got all these new game modes and things that are being added to the game. Uh we're going to review them and check them out. They were cool to hit me up for a sponsored stream, which you know, was going to take place in the day. Wait a minute. Let me just Hold on a second. Let me just see. WHAT'S THIS? [groaning and screaming] ALL RIGHT, LET'S CLOSE THAT. WOW. WOW. That's very bright. Oh. Jesus, man. Uh let's get this thing started. Oh, [laughter] man. Not normal streaming hours. Uh hold on a second. Yeah, let's get let's get going. That's not Marvel Rivals. That's my Marvel thing. Uh it's so early. Chat, I'm going to be playing with you guys, too. So, uh you know, fire up the game if you're not at work. Might be at work. Fire up the game if you're not at work. Uh I just got things updated. And there's a ton Actually, you know what? Before we get started, there's a ton of stuff we have to review. Uh there's like new trailers. There's the Times Square event. There's the lobby feature stuff. Um I have not seen the new PvE mode in action yet. People talked about it last night. They said I might like it. Um and then I think we're going to be teaming up for the Path to Doomsday Avengers mode thing. Yeah. Making sure I get the what the name of it is. It's funny. All of this stuff is pretty much here because of the hype around the new movie, you know? It feels like it's a pretty good way to get people relatively excited for this. Either way, uh yeah, big shoutout to Marvel Rivals for sponsoring the stream, getting me up early, playing this stuff, jumping back in. Controller, please. Um chat, I'm playing the optimal way. Uh that's what I was told by professionals this is the optimal way to play on a busted Xbox Elite V2. Uh the optimal way. Okay. On a broken one with a lot of uh you know, with a whole bunch of uh stick drift. That's what I heard. The stick drift helps. It actually helps. This game just keeps going, dude. This is honestly like I think one of the only Marvel games that has gotten as much support as this in terms of like a long-running title next to like Contest of Champions, like something like that. It's been going strong for a couple years now. Um before we get started started, they have a couple of trailers. Here's the the first one. That was put up on Twitter. Make sure I got the right link. Um Yeah, here it is. So, I didn't see this one yet. Avengers take over Times Square and you're invited to the front row, iconic moments on the big screen. To earn the Avengers Gallery Card, complete your hero's journey by snapping a picture of the photo wall. Oh, do you recreate moments from the movie? You literally do. I like the flip damage. Cute. This one's [music] cool as [ __ ] Man, if they have all this like build up this hype and build up stuff leading up to Doomsday, that's going to be a pretty good call, right? It's going to be a pretty There wasn't even that many things that was leading up until um Avengers like Endgame. There was only so much, man. And to be honest like all I was kind of like MVCI that came out before that and it only really just had Thanos in it. Brother. Um that's a good call to hype up a movie, dude. Long right Yeah, like long hype rollout all the way till December. That's a good call. Cuz the whole point of like waiting for the movie is like waiting the full year, you know? Like here's the year. Uh here's the team lobby feature. Hold on a second. This is a new trailer as well. icons return, step into the iconic moments inspired by Marvel Studios Avengers prove the legends are truly timeless. In this team lobby experience, it's not about the powers, it's about the legacy. Customize your roster, synchronize your alts, and dominate the battlefield with the heroes who started it all. Chat, when did Avengers come out? When the hell did Was it 2012 or 2011? No, 2011 was when Captain America came out. And it was 2012, yeah. Yeah, I was inundated by Marvel stuff right around that time cuz that's when I was starting doing um right around the part where I was doing full-time YouTube for the first time in my life. And yeah. So, I remember going to the theater with uh Dude, that was even before I don't even know if we went with Kenny and Steve. I don't even think we did. Feels like so long ago. That was pretty much like right around the point in my life where everything like started changing. You remember that? I remember it because it's like where you know, I stopped having to go to the office all the time. I stopped working in that part of the industry all the time and I had to make content constantly, you know? So, that was even before me and before I knew Kenny very well outside of a couple interactions. But I knew Steve. I think me, Steve Simmons, and a few other friends went to go see the movie. Um but I remember being like this was very good. Reminds me of Firefly. Dang, you remember those feelings? Before KI, yeah, legit before KI. Remember those feelings? I was doing Ultimate Marvel 3 uh online warrior videos around this timeframe. Anyway. Kenny was at Mahalo, yep. This is neat. I think Capsule their [music] skins are so much better, though. Yes. 100% there. This is a This is a very good idea. This is a This is a good way to build hype for a movie. This might be some of the biggest marketing efforts that are going into this stuff. And then there's the new PvE mode, which we'll be checking out. Oh, is there a video on it? There is. Is it Blood Hunt? Watch the hold on. Is it going to freak out? It's going to freak out. Hold up. There we go. You call yourselves New York's What? Now is the time to prove it. Oh, it's just a straight-up zombie horde mode? Wow. Flesh and guts. Ancestral sword. You have to play Blade during this, right? Right? That's got to be like Do they lock you into Blade only? You have a stat character building part of the difficulties and loot. That's neat. It's all It's one player or group? Time to make the undead No, no, we're in a team. Okay, this will be fun. This will give me time to get reacclimated. Curse the vile creature. Doge cap. This probably has happened at some point in the books, right? Well done. Perhaps This is This cannot be a unique thing just to rivals. This has probably happened at some point. It's been going on for too long. It's like The Simpsons. Like they they correctly predict everything because they've just been around for too long. In the literature. You truly believe yourself my equal? Some in the '80s and '90s. And that's just Dracula as the last boss. You have my thanks, but your vigilante antics have violated the law. You're under arrest. Dracula, you big effing nerd, where's my money? I don't think that was real, right? Sadly. I don't I don't think that I don't think that quote from that old meme It is real? It's not real. No. It's real in my heart. It's real in our hearts. It was never Dude, don't do this to me. You're not going to get me to read a thousand books, chat, to eventually find it. I think it's real. Di- Didn't he say that in the show? Get Get down here, you big effing nerd. I want my money. It's not. It's a meme. Exactly. Come on. One Cyclops is next? What? No. Cyclops isn't in the game yet.

This one I don't have an extra one, sadly. Um by the way, chat, if any of you guys want to learn more about the game, um free to play. We're going to be jumping in and playing with each other today for Marvel Rivals. I'm sure you guys have heard of it. But uh all the new events and stuff like that are available now. Um {exclamation point} rivals on Twitch to learn more. Click the link and follow [music] it, and there's one on YouTube as well. Um you know what? I don't know if the YouTube one has the right um link. Let me post this. Grab this one. I grabbed that one. Sorry, a little bit of home- housework. Streaming this time frame. Marvel Rivals got me streaming early. They sponsored the stream, but everyone's got to stream it like like 2:00. So we out here. Very nice of them. There we go. And the link is on YouTube now. I had the wrong one. So we got to have it pinned. Cool. Um so uh the new event is Avengers Time Square. Let me go ahead and check that stuff out. I should just get this. Yeah. My mouse interrupting things. Let me just grab this one. [groaning] Token skins would be That'd be very cool. If they did eventually make everything like sort of cohesive within the Marvel verse type stuff, like the online Marvel verse. That would be very cool. I would like I would like that. Let's see. Did I need to use I need to use mouse on this menu. My brain is fried. Um I'm not going to use mouse in game, I swear. So there's Blood Hunt. Um where is the Time Square thing? Is that just in the general lobby itself? Gambit skin review? Are you telling me Gambit got more skins? Use controller for this game? I use controller for every shooting game. Go to play in Time Square. Hold on a second. Let me check the Gambit thing. I'm uh breaking schedule. Uh where's he at? Where's he at? Where's he at? Jesus. My god. This is new. Wow. Very sexy, brother. This is one we saw before. Okay, he doesn't have a ton of new skins. Not a ton. Damn. Oh, the wedding skin was limited time. I was about to say I've seen I have seen one that is not up here. I've seen one that's not up here. Um hold on a second. [screaming] Uh let's see. Where is from here the lobby? My brain. What the heck do they That's the limited time event. My brain My name is still must not play. It still is. That's it. That's right. Hidden. Music though. Gambit, where are you? Where be you? And for those that are curious, yeah, one of the big reasons that they they hit me up about this is because um I'm not super caught up on this, and the opportunity for all this new stuff that's in the game is pretty good for new players to jump in. So Granted, it's free to play, so it has the absolute best has the absolute best aspect that it takes for a game to get people just to try it. Where's this event at? Is it up here? Oh, boy. Hey, y'all. [snorts] Because of course. Yeah, this is uh this is scary. You got to be careful out here. Gambit is actually the strongest character in the game, and he's permabanned. Not for me. They said they saved him exclusively for me. Everybody else isn't going to play. That That was actually the goal when I said I the character's mine, that was the idea behind it. That it's just me that's able to play the character and not you. Um hold on a second. Let me check. We don't need DLSS. Do we? Ah. Lobby FPS FPS, let's do 60. Lobby 60 Show peeps, yeah. It helps. Look at the pims and which Got to figure out. I'm getting like I I either it's a shader comp thing happening or something. [snorts] I think it might be. Uh, where'd my peeps counter go? Or did I not apply it? Might not have applied it. I didn't think I locked it in, yeah. 16 Off. What is the Probably native. That'll be better cuz that'll be DLAA. Vsync and then apply. It's Cal's ready to play. I think it might I think that's the lobby, right chat? I think that thing happening like the the little the little micro stutter thing, I think that's the lobby kicking in.

Let me check this out. They gave us so many trailers. Oh, it's movie Loki. I don't think I ever tried him in this game. Did he end up being really good? He's like top-tier support. An Avengers Iron Man. I Is this one of the suits that I I Iron Man suits that I like? I can't remember. This is before he became like super sleek. Yeah, this one's great. It's really It's It's not that far away from the uh the the old Iron Man movies like Iron Man 1 and 2. Yeah, I think it was by the time we get to nanotech in like Avengers Infinity War they're too sleek. He loses his bulk, which is like I wasn't a big fan of it. Is that Is that a common criticism that people don't like the nanotech versions of uh the Iron Man costume? Is that like a normal criticism? Cuz I kind of agree.

That same joke was made on Marvel Marvel Rivals launch. Well, I'm very funny. Wow, okay. My aiming is affirmed. The closest one to be like Wanda, I guess. Is Wanda even a support? She's not. Yeah, she's deeps. Remember because she had that big old like AoE thing that insta-kills you? Damn. Mind control. Don't like that. Whoa. My [ __ ] ass. There we go. There is healing. God. Flight stopped working. Only hero is Cap, and he's not really a healer. How do Iron Man How do you go up and down? Hm. His alt heals. Okay. Yeah, I did left bumper and trigger, and it suddenly was like It's a bug when Loki mind controls you, he messes with your controls. I was about to say, as soon as he mind controlled me, I couldn't fly around anymore. Uh I'm down to try again. Is the mind control supposed to carry over, or is it just like it's a goofy thing? Oh, it's a it's a goofy thing. Okay, I'm like, why is my controller stopped working? Uh second. Yeah, he took over the character for 10 seconds. It was after uh he still did. And I was like, uh-oh.

Mighty warriors, answer the call to battle. Adventure forth to the mission area. Yeah, it's working now. I don't think that's the welcoming committee. There came a time when both sides fought for sacred head. Damn it. I lost CONTROL OF THE SUIT. LOST control of the suit. I hope Doom comes to the game soon. Jarvis, do everything for me. Oh boy. Cap, get up. We need you. POWERING UP. ANYONE SAY FIREWORKS? OKAY. JARVIS, I need more alcohol. Raise a toast in celebration. Enemies on approach. Can't fly. JARVIS, DRIVE ME TO THE HOSPITAL. I need a surgeon. Everybody ready? Yeah, this is the new PvE mode. Uh they hit us up for a sponsored stream because all this new Avengers stuff is halfway to victory. No. Iron Man is like slow in the air, so you have to be really careful. I feel like I have to be like hovering around Um I have to be like hovering around Everybody ready? the walls and things like that cuz you can't like get away particularly quick. He's not fast like Spider-Man. Like hitting him is not necessarily tough. I've spotted them. HERE'S HOW YOU SHOOT. WHERE'S THE REAL ONE? I SAW HULK SMASHING. CAP, get up. We need you. Damn it. Okay. Hulk was literally smashing his ass. It looks like you can Can I I don't think I have a cool down on dashing at all. Yeah, that is really slow to go down. Okay. Feeling good again. Pardon. Try harder. BOMBS AWAY. AVENGERS, ASSEMBLE. AH. [groaning] No cool down, but you have a fuel meter. Okay. Okay. I'm getting hang of it. Dang it, dude. This is tough. Holy heck. This is not easy. He's really good. This feels like when we were playing What was it? Battlefront? And you were trying to take down the AT-ST? Or what was it? The AT-AT? With like the the rebels and it was like, "Dude, WHAT ARE WE EVERYONE FIRE." LIKE EVERYONE HAS SOME mad focus. I want to beat him once. I want to beat him once. We're going to check out the other modes. Yeah, don't worry. That was the coolest thing, chat. That was like one of my favorite moments on stream where I was I was like, "Dude, streaming is amazing." We were literally playing the beta for Battlefront. And um we were the rebels, right? And the rebels were shockingly underpowered. So, in in in the in the beta, they were really underpowered over the empire. Um so, when the big old like AT-AT walker was like coming down, the only way you could take it down is if everybody hyper focused on it. So, because because the rebels were so weak. So, we literally were with the team as soon as the AT-AT showed up, it's like, "All right, guys. We're This is what we're doing. We're doing this. We're doing that." And then like Steve was playing over there or something. So, we're shockingly underpowered. And it was just like, "ALL RIGHT, FIRE." And like literally you saw like 30 players shooting the holy [ __ ] out of this thing. So many gosh darn lasers, dude. It was pretty cool. So, arguably one of my favorite stream moments ever. It looked hilarious. GET UP. THE THING WENT DOWN QUICK. SO, it was beatable, but everyone had to have like communication and we only had that from streaming. Is there a video of that? It's from literally like 2015. I'd have to go back and look it up. Battlefront 1, the first one. Yeah. The clips wouldn't be available anymore, but I I think I have it in a in a saved VOD. 2015 was 11 years ago. I don't want to talk about it. Chat, when Avengers 1 came out, that was 36 years ago. All the actors are in their 60s now. Uh yeah, the uh the the going up and down. You go Oh, if you don't That's good. I wanted the missiles. That goes where I wanted. Weird cap. Weird cap. He just You pissed off at me? No, don't be pissed off at me. Let's go. I'm work I'm doing Look at me. Look at me. I'm learning. Plant the flag, people. Target is captured. Wow, Hulk smash. How do we know they're shooting at the right one? Here's the thing, Adele. That's the neat part. Maximum pulse. Where the hell did he go? No, I'm surviving. Iron Man's really fun, but man, you need good aim, right? This character feels like he can't do like sloppy aim. You really got to hold target very well. Oh my god, mind control. Now I can't fly. Just spam laser, okay. I'm shooting my friends now. And I'm killing myself. No, no, I'm not, actually, [ __ ] I'd like some healing. I need this tree. Wait, so you guys are regular [ __ ] Doesn't have to be. They can pick anyone. Oh god, my chat's cheating. All right, here we go. Let's look at the Look at the mechanics. Um I can do an illusion bomb. I could bend the knee with royal presence, and then I'm going to do art of deception, back to royal presence, and then do a one frame link into the puppet strings. Got you. That's exactly what I'm doing. I can shoot. I can shoot. Okay, that's it. That's got That's it. What does that do? Okay, got Fine. Run in there and shoot the chat. Win this alone? Why is this guy shielding? Die, you. The Hulk's trying to kill me. THEY'RE KICKING MY ASS. OKAY, WHEN I GO INVISIBLE, I HEAL. Got it. This is the solo tank experience in this game. It's kind of neat. Look at this guy thinking he's going to distract me from my my uh my grand purpose. What the hell am I Why am I blade? Die, Hulk. WHO'S THIS LITTLE [ __ ] WHAT ARE ALL THESE TANKS? I'M TRYING out here, Chad. I'm pressing all these buttons. I'm trying out here. I'm pressing all these buttons. Be quiet. Hey, you. What's that cheese? DA DA DA DA. DA DA DA DA. DANG IT. TRIED, DUDE. Why do they have three tanks? Huh? What's with their three tanks? Um I got access to take over one of their [ __ ] at some point. And I That was fun. That was actually really fun. And I couldn't get it again. Uh I tried doing it. It's actually very fun. Let's go back and make sure my chat doesn't cheat. Cuz they cheated. Chat cheated. You press left on the D-pad. Damn it. Um back. Hold on. Harby mind controls them, they will attack allies, and then right D-pad to take their bodies if mind controlled. Ooh. All right. Let's make sure the chat can't cheat. Is it room settings? No. Where is this thing at, chat? Where they have to play Avengers only. They all want Avengers. I saw the thing. Not a movie Avenger. I saw the thing. Like this is [ __ ] And Blade. I took over Blade. And then Kobe Bryant jumped in there, yeah. Three tanks, three deeps, but no healers. The Blade was mine. I mean, you can only take over the dudes that Right? Your old summon non-Avengers. Whatever. How do I make it so the chat can't cheat anymore? What do I got to do? Are we already doing it? The map? This ain't it. Just ban everybody. Threaten them. They literally didn't cheat. They must have cheated. Uh all right. All right. It wasn't in room settings, no. Uh is that just a thing in custom games? Arcade 1v6 in the map. Okay. Oh my god. Wait, hold up, dude. Um 1v6 Have to do Hey, okay. Let's look Look at that. No more cheating. Look at that. No more cheating. Check it out. No more cheating. My biggest gripe in the game is that like the lobby does not work. The uh the all the lobby settings aren't particularly great on controller. I'm going into things and pressing up and down and I'm just like, "Where am I?" Yeah, you got to get used to it. Stick drift though. No stick drift. The character rotating like that is not stick drift. It is just dick's drift. It's dick's drift. So, when I RB That takes over and I press left on the D-pad. This is like a explosion. And this teleports around. Teleports back. Oh, you can. Your main body stays vulnerable when you take a body. Okay, Loki time. This with the music does a lot. You know? When the music was kicking it da da da da. I don't know if that's necessarily good. I don't know I don't know if that's necessarily good. I don't like the uh taking over some random A-hole I don't know how to play. I don't like it. Better just to like mind control them and let it rip. Okay. All right. All right. All right. Mind control them, make them jump off a map. That's a good idea. That's a really good idea. That's what happened before when I was running off the map and I I I was able to recover back. Hey, what the hell? STOP CHEATING. KISS MY ASS, GRIM. KISS MY ASS. AVENGERS Might Kneel before me. The monster Hulk approached. Do just fine. Loki's back in shape. He was halfway to the kingdom. I'm fine. Don't mind me. This [ __ ] IS HAPPY TO ME. Power shifting. And the heroes reclaimed the These god damn pesky Avengers. Greetings. What did I miss? No screen cheating. Victory was within reach. Only one final step remained before Loki Behold the monster Hulk approached. The heroes summoned a monster. Never miss. The children of the rainbow still answered. Thus the battle raged on. Who will be the lucky one? Just a little soldier after all. Catch the sniper. Rightfully mine. You will Oh, I wasn't in the zone. Crap. All right. All right. All right.

No, that's all path to Doomsday. It's not under competitive, is it? Is it under quick match? It's four player only. Oh. we have to kick people out. Um It's completely separate mode. So, you can't do it in a custom. Hold on. Uh-huh. Yes. See. Blood hunt. Let's see. Let's populate. invite. What the hell? I don't want to engage a formal conversation. Damn it. let's do this. I'm just selecting three. Prepare skill tree. Um hold up. We're just trying to get a party first. So, we need to do weird things? Prepare. Huh? Oh, wait a minute. Is it only so many characters? Is it just Jeff, Blade, Thor, etc.? Just these six. Okay. Let me try Blade then just so I can be canonical. Interesting. And that's all I got. They say X-Men are going to be in PVE in the future. Ooh, I hope I get to do that. Is this six characters from this mode? Blade has been bought since release and is still meh. Uh Steve plays him. Yeah, he's been been playing. Did I did I pick Blade? Yeah, he's locked in. Okay. Let's check. No, Psylocke isn't in this yet. I hope that'll happen eventually. Maybe around when X-Men '97 comes out again. Dracula wishes to reclaim my city. You call yourselves New York's guardians. You just may be only smart [music] choice. I think Blade showing up in um Wakanda is a pretty high unlikelihood at this point. He has a gun, too, right? Go to the rally point and prepare to fight the vamps. Switch. Okay, so you switch between gun mode and sword mode. This is pretty Okay, this is kind of neat. Well, this is crazy. What is this Left 4 Dead update? No kidding. Press the back button and choose cards. Okay. Cool. So, you get buffs in between each run? Like kind of like a rogue light? That's pretty sick. Do I have a heal? Just a raw ass heal. Steve would love this mode, dude. Hold on a second, guys. I got this. HOLD ON A SECOND, BROTHERS. I GOT THIS. COME ON, GUYS. DON'T WORRY. DON'T WORRY, BROTHERS.

He uh for the opponents say oh. Doesn't say in this mode. That's really disappointing. Wow, Blade is very fun. I like this whole switching in between like the two game modes. I'm sorry, the the two combat modes. That's very fun. That's really cool. Man, I wonder if they eventually ever do a campaign for this game. It honestly would be incredible. Where we going? Oh my god. Up up up up up. I can't run any faster, can I? The the movement speed is very much defined by like abilities and stuff or else it would be too good. Stop playing. Here we LB dash is mine? Yeah, it's this thing. Oh, here. Blade's pretty simple to use, too. Press RB with sword out. And that just switches weapons. This game mode is sick. Captain America's a dog. This is fun. This is fun. I like this mode a lot, dude. You level up and you get into higher difficulties. You spec into either sword or gun builds. I'm pretty much already specking into a sword build. Yeah, we want we need to get to the uh the harder modes. It's also interesting that it's only a few characters. It's like canonical characters. Um that's as far as the difficulty goes. Each one gets a bit longer. So, how do we how do we click the hard mode one? It's under prepare? It has 160 levels. Um I got five points now. You can equip items as well. This is really sick. I see Arcana. Dude, it's like a team rogue light thing. A a team horde rogue light. Ancestral sword attack speed. Yeah. 60% dude. Holy hell. Total output boost. Where am I from? The Netherlands.

Dracula wishes to reclaim my city. You call yourselves New York's guardians. Now is the time to prove it. You just may be only smart choice. Yeah, this is fun. Unlocking all this extra stuff. This will be incredible with like an X-Men mode. Bro, could you even imagine if this was an X-Men mode and you had to fight sentinels? Woah. Now my swords are mad mad powerful. Now you're thinking with power. Yeah, I'm pretty much inspect completely into this now. Holy crap, bit rate hell. I have a block. Never using that. This is hilarious. Oh, there's bats now.
