Notable and Memorable Arena Videos

[Dokurider]

I had a realization recently that many newcomers and returning contestants aren't up to date on the latest strategies that have been in development since the release of 138. All of the videos released so far are all scattered in the Arena Video Discussion topic, with 138's video being spread out over 40 pages as of this writing. Naturally, that's going to be difficult for some people to sort through of what's going on.

So I propose that we place what is felt to be the most notable and memorable videos of 138. Basically, any videos that you really liked or felt that were significant in highlighting significant/popular strategies in Arena. Videos that you'd feel that someone that is new or returning should watch. Doing this will help get them up to speed faster on how to proceed with their own teams or to better put strategies in upcoming videos into a better context.

Here's a list I put together quickly just to get things started:

FFT Arena 1.38b - Accidently (First video of 138. That seems pretty notable)
FFT Arena 1.38c - Dienasty (Second video of 138.)
FFT Arena 1.38c Mania 1
FFT Arena 1.38d - CT5Holy (Ele Break)
FFT Arena 1.38d Rivalries - CT5Holy vs Otabo
FFT Arena 1.38d Rivalries - DarkxFatal vs Malroth
FFT Arena 1.38d Trifecta Series - DomieV (Famous Knights)
FFT Arena 1.38d Mania 2
FFT Arena 1.38d Mania 3
CT5's Cruel Concoction vs Barren's High Risk, High Reward)

Also Video Recorders, please post your Arena Playlists if you have them. Or really, anyone can post a playlist as long as it's Arena, I suppose.

I recall back in early December/Late November and TheDamned was suffering from a pretty nasty string of bad luck with his team submissions.  So in order to cheer him up a little, I went and found three videos that featured some epic comebacks of his.  Only one of those is for 1.38D, but it's pretty epic.

Adding "Take Your Time vs I Like Books" because it shows a complete newcomer "Ecthel" taking on "Barren", a seasoned veteran, and pulling of a stunning victory.  Newcomers will know that you don't have to spend months to build a team that's good (although it's certainly took me a long to become a passable team builder).

Last Edit!  I'm adding Doku's most recent trifecta he did for me, "So You Think You Can Dance" to the list of notables because it involves taking a skill thought to be "useless" (Wiznaibus) and having real success with it.  Not necessarily against the most formidable teams known to 1.38D, but all of my opponents feature Autopotion or Saves and I was still able to win.

Oh how could I forget the Single Class Challenge we had during December?  The tournament the revealed how Broken Magic Guns are for 1.38?  Dokurider's team also clued us all in on how powerful Cursed Ring is but that took longer for us as a community to realize...

Single Class Challenge

My personal favorite match from the tourney was Dol vs Angelus: round 3 block C.

Arena Season 2 Finale.  Goin' down as an all-time great...

[Malroth]

it was pretty incredible

[Elmdork]

I was watching a lot of videos from season 2, and I just wanted to say that dokurider's ninja "double-negative" was my favourite character of all. When someone cast berserk on him, he was doing upwards of 700 damage 

Thinking of building salty rage ninjas...

[Barren]

You mean angelus' ninja. But yea air knife with twist headband/power sleeve/108 gems and two hands is pretty strong. Especially with oil coming into play

[CT5Holy]

Dokurider (Bomb Squad) vs LightningHax (Firmly Grasp It)

=P

[Otabo]

That was match of the year quality right there.

[TrueLight]

It's always nice to have rivalries in FFT Arena. Whether they be old or new ones. 

FFT Arena 1.38d Rivalry Series - Otabo vs Dokurider

FFT Arena 1.38d Rivalry Series - Fenire vs Zotis

FFT Arena 1.38d Rivalry Series - reinoe vs Rouroni Elmdor

[Reks]

It seems like shameless self advertising, but I'm rather fond of this old match

We have a new candidate.

Assassination Attempt vs Tonble.

[Zotis]

Really, you thought Assassination Attempt vs Tonble was memorable?  Hmm...

A playlist of most of my & Fenire's matches.  I've been keeping a tally on them this whole time, but I've missed a few.

Here's another memorable match for you guys. ESPECIALLY ROUND 3's ENDING

FFT Arena 1.38d - DomieV (Famous Knights: Last Stand) vs. Fenire (Tonble) [A MUST WATCH]

[Fenire]

Who could forget silentcaster (Kenny is dead) vs Fenire (Summon Arrows)rematch.
SO MUCH DAMAGE!

[Zotis]

I was just thinking about an old video of me and Fenire going at it with one of my older versions of Assassination Attempt.  Fenire's Benders was at an early stage and riddled with flaws, and it was one of the few matches I actually saw Solution going off.  Possibly the lowest damage Chiri ever occured for 54 damage from an innocence inflicted Samurai on a shelled Priest.
