You uploaded an old version of Raven's team though.  Could tell right away from the Polka Polka and Disillusion

The team is supposed to have Polka Polka and Disillusion because in the time between Arena 1.30 and 1.38, DPS has received enough buffs that a team like Y U SO DERP can no longer outright ignore an offense and harass Speed without fights being literal coin tosses that are heavily out of its favor.  Breaking small amounts of Power and Magic let it take the edge off to survive and let the Slow Dance train begin.  The Dances should probably be redistributed to be a bit more efficient at that but it won't make a huge difference.

The fact that Y U SO DERP can now be defeated (though not always easily) by a wide number of teams is a good thing, though.  It's a team that was designed using a bunch of normally fair or acceptable skills that overlapped in a way to create something degenerate and abusive via taking advantage of the low-damage metagame of 1.30.  Basically, I designed it as a proof of concept to show a lot of problems in Arena's game balance at the time (from some JP costs to the damage potential of units and more) and once those problems were mostly fixed, the team became more like a measuring stick to rate whether your team is worth submitting than an actual metagame threat.

Which is exactly what it should be, as a team like this should not be allowed to be a dominating force in any healthy metagame.

Match requested by reinoe: Two Swords for everyone! (Dol vs TrueLight)

Next match will actually be my Cruel Concoction vs Doku's Mana Missile Matrix, probably during the weekend?

Two good ones here.

FFT Arena 1.38d - iamBQB (Forgot Team Name) vs. LightningHax (Stagnant Water)

FFT Arena 1.38d - TrueLight (Air Raid) vs. reinoe (House of Dead Ninjas)

Well that was pretty quick. Much appreciated Otabo. And yeah I forgot the name, only record I had of the team was from the Season 1 Tournament thread.

Matches requested by Ahong, more will be up at a later date

FFT Arena 1.38d - Ahong (Sword Art Online) vs The Damned (Katana Capable of Cutting Nothing)

FFT Arena 1.38d - Ahong (Bard & Dancer) vs DarkxFatal (Assassins Feature)

(Oh good, you're okay, Barren.)

So...while after finally dealing with motherfucking Camtasia repeatedly not producing videos for literally hours on end, I now have to deal with Youtube and its (usually) spurious attempts at copyright claims.

Sigh.

So now I have to ask if people in America/outside of Japan can see these two following videos or if I'll need to redo them like I do need to redo three four other ones:


1. FFT ARENA 1.38d - (with In-Game Audio) Angelus (Scholars R Us) vs. formerdeathcorps (Sniper) [21:38]

2. FFT ARENA 1.38d - (no In-Game Audio) Angelus (Scholars R Us) vs. formerdeathcorps (Sniper) [21:38]

3. FFT ARENA 1.38d - DomieV (Restless Sleep) vs. LightningHax (Arrow Hurts) [6:38]


I should have suspected that Squaresoft would be really picky about any of its music being used, even if it's more "obscure" pieces and the one song I tried to use being disputed because of meme (though not the memetic song I expected). Konami being one of claimants, however, is pretty damn surprising, especially given that one of the tracks is less than a minute and the other wasn't even ever released.

Ugh. Time to redo at least four videos and then re-upload at least seven more because that fucked up the order. Joy.


P.S. The first and second video are indeed the same, just differing in-game audio since no one answered what I asked more than a week ago with regards to the video. I just need people to check both.

I can see all three videos. I'm in the U.S.

RE: the videos, I was able to view them but I was having trouble with my router.  My housemate reset the router and now I'm not able to view the videos.

RE: THE P.S...I didn't see a question about in-game audio or commentary recently.  Sorry about missing it.

Thank's a lot for the video Barren





I'll re-edit my SAO. and quick edit on my B&D.
*Hey, sword art online opening and ending both season and english ver. Where you get it? (reply it in message)*

(Fucking finally. Camtasia can go get water-boarded.)

So, things are finally posted without need to redo them (again)...only I've still holding back on two videos because Camtasia literally won't let me open one of the videos with a copyright claim to re-edit it. So now I'm debating whether to re-post it & deal with the copyright right claim on "Path to Repentance" or, sigh, re-recording the damn thing.

Said "damn thing" is my own match vs. Vigilanti and my own match vs. Reks is being held up because of it presently, though I might go ahead and just post that as much as I loathe posting things out of order.

Anyway, in the meantime, here are the long delayed videos:


1. FFT ARENA 1.38d - [w/ In-Game Audio] Jumza (Down to Earth) vs. xyzqwv (All Four Bets) [22:25]

2. FFT ARENA 1.38d - [no In-Game Audio] Jumza (Down to Earth) vs. xyzqwv (All Four Bets) [22:25]

3. FFT ARENA 1.38d - [w/ In-Game Audio] Jumza (Reaction, Support, _) vs. Dokurider (Magic Shield Ms) [9:20]

4. FFT ARENA 1.38d - [no In-Game Audio] Jumza (Reaction, Support, _) vs. Dokurider (Magic Shield Ms) [9:20]

5. FFT ARENA 1.38d - [no In-Game Audio] Angelus (Scholars R Us) vs. formerdeathcorps (Sniper) Redone [21:38]

6. FFT ARENA 1.38d - Dragonblade (Hyperdrive) vs. Barren (Ragnarok) [15:24]

7. FFT ARENA 1.38d - Dragonblade (Hyperdrive) vs. Barren (Ragnarok) Bonus [9:20]

8. FFT ARENA 1.38d - reinoe (Machine Gunners) vs. DomieV (Famous Knights) Redone [10:10]

9. FFT ARENA 1.38d - reinoe (Machine Gunners) vs. DomieV (Famous Knights) Bonus [5:09]

10. FFT ARENA 1.38d - Barren (Edible Oils) vs. DarkxFatal (Shadow's Call) [6:18]

11. FFT ARENA 1.38d - Barren (Edible Oils) vs. DarkxFatal (Shadow's Call) Bonus [3:11]

12. FFT ARENA 1.38d - DomieV (Restless Sleep) vs. LightningHax (Arrow Hurts) Redone [6:38]

13. FFT ARENA 1.38d - DomieV (Restless Sleep) vs. LightningHax (Arrow Hurts) Bonus [2:22]

14. FFT ARENA 1.38d - Otabo (Spellstorm) vs. CT5Holy (Wizard Stuffs) Redone [10:41]

That would be because I deleted them last night around midnight after re-editing things. Sorry for the confusion, but I just didn't want to bother with "blocked countries", especially when it won't tell me WHAT countries are blocked (and why).

Meh. You're hardly the only one. At least you have the excuse of missing it; I'm not sure what other people's excuses were, Raven aside since he already said he doesn't really follow ARENA anymore.

I should probably stop using bold so much regardless.


P.S. GG Ahong.

Also, Cruel Concoction vs Doku's Mana Missile Matrix

13. FFT ARENA 1.38d - DomieV (Restless Sleep) vs. LightningHax (Arrow Hurts) Bonus [2:22]

You may not have realized it, but with the Bonus Video that makes RestlessSleep and ArrowHurts 2/2.  Now we need a tie-breaker.

(Nah. I realized it. I'm debating whether I should tie-breaker with the current versions of the team or updated versions if either one of them does.)

Oh, and since I forgot to ask last time: Barren, typically, how do you deal with copyright claims (since you're the only other person to use music in videos)?

Or has that just not come up for you?

Regardless, I'll probably post up the last two videos after I (actually) update my patch threads later today.
