As someone pointed out in the reddit comments after a roll your fastest shortcut to TCS is Roll---Wide Swing----Slinger Burst----TCS and not the shoulder tackle to side blow combo. Although if you need the hyper armor from the tackle use that combo to chain into TCS
Haha I kinda lied in the end of the video there. I’m currently working on the scripts of swag steps part 2 that is gonna go over evasion on SA Axe mode. The key word is counter-repositioning. But I didn’t have enough footage so the video will have to wait until I play enough SA in the beta - Hry
To everyone playing on PC, you can change the direction of your slinger burst using wasd
Typical lmao, ty tho XD
Update: if u hold “w” than u can aim the slinger burst with mouse...
How do we change the direction of our Slinger Burst / Stance on console tho? I've fiddled with numerous settings and it always bursts in the direction I'm previously going...
@@toml7320 There´s a camera setting you can change called Reticle Direction. Change to Camera´s Direction, so when you aim the reticle will appear where the camera is pointing to instead of where the character is facing.
but how do i do slinger brust on pc?, i cant find the key binding
@@marchel1162 yeah this
It’s always the text guides that give the best advice.
true.
The ones with voiceovers are done by people more interested in promoting themselves than providing useful information.
It's the one thing I miss from the old monster hunter community... monster guides and weapon guides now it just min/max builds.
@@kersonetienne1535 They're still out there, I saw a rajang attack / timing guide with frame by frame breakdown a while ago :)
cons_oa is a great mh youtuber with only 15k subs
Jesus fk. I watched this and start to implement it into my gameplay. Never felt so mobile in MHW and never landed so many True Charge in one hunt while the monster is moving. You've shown me a whole new world for my GS experience.
Thank you so much for making this guide!!
GeneralEagleT I honestly dont get a lot of feedback from ppl who watched it and tried it out themselves. So glad that u find it useful cheers!
@@imaGiraffeMH I link your video as much as possible. I think its a video that every Greatsword user should watch.
I did tried it and now my playstyle is super aggresive and very mobile as well... usually i always ran out stamina coz the tackle thingy, now i have more reserved stamina ' 3')b
I've been really benefiting from these methods as well. You know de way, sir. I did have one question, does jumping wide swing carry over the hyper armor from tackle?
agreed, and another tip every monster have interval for every attack and they will be vulnerable at that time, thats when u start attacking it, only bitch slap them fully when they are down, stunned or tired
4 year later, and this video still slaps, thanks for the great techs bro! Feel like my 3rd eye opened after watching this.
This video was fairly tucked away in a slew of other "Monster Hunter World Greatsword" how to videos. But yours is so informative and filled with so many useful tips that I'm very surprised this doesn't have WAY more views. Very well done on this video. I wouldn't mind seeing more like this. 👍🏻
Sir Alfred damn thank you this made my day! If u look at my low effort editing and thumbnail i certainly isnt advertising it well haha. But this whole channel is a passion project so really i get my high from comments like yours
It might be on its way up? CZcams recommended this to me even though I haven't been looking for greatsword videos.
Of all the GS “guides”, this is the best one I’ve seen yet. Real unknown but incredibly game changing tips.
Thank you.
@Satou Tatsuhiro he sounds like a troll
He's literally called Josh Derp, read between the lines.
@Josh derp It looks like you are not even playing mhw XD
Lool, been playing monter hunter for ages as a GS and CB main... These tips are brilliant. They're moves I should be using but keep forgetting because of testing all the damn weapons 🤣. Oh and I just found out you can TCS from a ledge hop ffs!
4 years later. Still the best advanced comprehensive TCS guide out here on youtube.
A “Return to World” campaign also means “Return to Giraffe” for a refresher on those sweet GS mobility moves.
I'm a latecomer, but man thanks so much. I never knew GS could get this much technical, really learned a lot. Real gem of a vid
I felt i was missing something when i tried to play GS in Iceborne.
First, you are the kind of person who remind me why CZcams was awesome back in the day, when videos like this were far more popular than these wanna be MH "masters".
You simply KNOW this weapon and i would love for you to make other videos if you ever decide to play another weapon or you think you could give some tips.
Second, thanks for all the tips and tricks. They ACTUALLY show why GS is still on top.
Aymeric Dury wow ngl that really means a lot I appreciate it. The benefit of this being a small channel is that comments are coming in at a rate that i can still reply to most of them and I have fun doing so.
Ive been putting off my SA guide for a longg time because Ive hit kind of a writers block. A lot of tech I wanna cover but I’m having trouble organizing it and making it flow. I have most of the footage now so idk we’ll have to wait and see.
Im a Giraffe no worries ! At least we know you only put videos when you feel like it and what’s the most important :p
Funny you mention SA, my friend just asked to find a similar in depth guide without any bullshit about it because he mains SA and also feels he’s missing something.
Anyways just tried to change my combo with your playstyle, thank you SO much i feel WAY more powerful and less open to monsters attacks :0 !
Aymeric Dury having someone to look forward to your guides is always a good motivatior 🙏 thanks again and glad the guide helped!
@@imaGiraffeMH just saw this now. Been playing a lot of GS because of this guide but main SA and would love a guide. There isn't really a proper one on CZcams yet for IB. Anyway, thanks a ton :)
Never thought of using the side swipe as a dodge. To me it's always just been an underpowered attack. I feel like a whole new world has opened up to me.
I actually started to use the sideswipe when AT elders hit the scene in PC due the faster recovery which you REALLY needed. Iceborne made it even more useful, actually carries you more forward and you can steer yourself more to the side.
Plus all the shennigans shown in the video
Never use GS since it’s too slow for me, but I can tell that this dude is a true hidden master of this weapon. He knows exactly what each movement does, how he can play them off one another, and exactly when to use his techniques. I’ve never respected GS more than I have now
I feel like these subtitles served a much better job than those that just keep babbling about nonsense
HowieMatey yo puting subtitles is work im just lazy and dont wanna do more work than i have to lmao
@@imaGiraffeMH keep being lazy 'cuz it's working, amazing video
Isomorph Next video is gonna be done in sign language through the mic. Would you guys prefer voice over tho? Been getting a lot of feedback regarding that
@@imaGiraffeMH Honestly, videos with people talking would be better if they weren't longer than 5 minutes (notable example I can think of is Boomstick Gaming's Perfect Rush video). Hearing someone talking for 10 minutes somehow triggers a reaction in my brain that turns all spoken words into white noise and I have to keep rewatching to get something in my head.
mesuchang Short, concise, and sweet. Got it. I dont intend my video going over 20 minutes anyways cuz i myself get turned off having to grind through an 30 minute guide. Thanks for the feedback!
Wonderful guide! That * classic LS * made me laugh haha
xSkail thank you! Haha i try not to make my guide too boring
OMG what Power have you bestowed upon me!!! Bin doing laps around the training pole and i have seen the light!
You know, coming to world for the first time, and now in the midst of fighting Alatreon, I wish I had found this much sooner because this has got to be the most helpful greatsword guide I've seen yet. As someone who mained longsword for the entirety of the main game the comparison to fade slash made me ecstatic as well.
As a GS user for a long time, this vid is awesome, thank you ! It really shows the potential of that weapon !
Wow, can't believe this doesn't have more views. We all thought we knew GS, but it actually had this much depth and mobility. Absolutely nuts. Changes my whole perspective on the weapon.
I'm super late to this party but I just wanted to say something... Holy moly my eyes have been opened. This video (after going into a solo hunt and just messing around with the stuff you've shown here) has changed the game for me. I've never landed so many back-to-back TCS's ever and on my first attempt it all just... worked. I was enjoying the GS but you've just introduced me to a whole new layer of depth (and fun).
Also the editing on the TCS whiffs is great. Makes me want to make an "Unsatisfying Great Sword" montage where it's just TCS barely whiffing over and over again.
Thanks a million to this guide! among all the 10-20 mins + video, this one just short/clean/informative with actual descriptive gameplay. just started MHW a week ago, was indecisive which weapon to main and thanks to you, i might just go with great sword xD
My take away from this video:
after every roll continue to tackle;
after every tackle continue either side blow or side slash;
after every side blow or side slash continue to sling shot;
and after the sling shot continue to the TCS;
rinse and repeat!
Literally one of the best real aggressive greats word guides out there. I have a low-key passion for using GS, but maneuvering and speed always deterred me, but this guide definitely changes that
Great video, the way you use the slinger (the 180° turn) is game changing, thank you
Even a year later this guide is still better than any of the other guides I’ve watched, helped me finally beat alatreon
Quality over quantity always
Really well done. You opened my eyes to how aggressive greatsword can be.
By far the best Greatsword advanced guide I can ever find. Nobody on the CZcams platform has covered it to that extent!
Seeing this video has reignited my passion for the greatsword. I stuck with it throughout the main story (new player here), but dropped it as I moved into AT content and found the monsters to be too quick and find myself missing my hits all the time. Thank you for the helpful showcase!
So glad i clicked this rather than bloated over edited videos that dont really teach you about the inner workings of each weapon. SwAx main here and i have an intense appreciation for the spicy slinger movesets this is right up my alley.
This is brilliant, I wish youtube had put this higher up the page when looking for guides, better than any GS guide i have seen, all without the pointless chatter and intro. I'll admit to putting my greatsword down for a few hunts latley as I was starting to get tired of the hit > sheath > run > hit > sheath and wanted something more mobile with bit of a combo aspect. This video gave me all of that back with my main weapon. Well explained and demonstrated, Great job.
Best most informative video I have seen for this game! I spent 30min in the training area last night and then practiced on a jaguras and then went and did some tempered investigations. A whole new feeling for great sword and it's going to be hard to put it down now!
This video may be one of the best videos for Iceborne, straight to the point, all questions answered, thank you for helping me with dominating every hunt, you are incredible.
This was really helpful, I am just getting back into GS after maining HH for a large portion of my MHW career and this is EXACTLY what i was looking for in a tutorial. Well done.
damn.. this guide is so good that changed my view in GSword playstyle. i was searching for advance Gsword guide and this one hit me the most. great stuff mate!! 👍
dude this is a high quality video. im subscribing despite you saying not to. like this video alone is more useful than like 50% of the content on some of the other channels that put out useless videos one after the other.
Thanks a lot for making this guide!
I'm new to Monster Hunter and I had almost given up hope in finding a good guide for MHW. All of the (many) other "guides" I've seen pretty much say the same three things:
- To defeat X just use OP gear Y (which drops from either X or from an enemy harder than X).
- To avoid X's attacks just practice until you learn how to avoid its attacks.
- Weapon "guides" that recommend to always aim for the most damaging combo (which you'll never pull off because it requires the monster to stay still for 10+ seconds),
Honorary mention to the "EASY way to defeat X in 5 minutes" guides which explain that all you have to do is never get hit or miss TCS.
I just wanna say thank you from the bottom of my heart. This 10 minute video completely changed the way I use the GS which made me change a new out look on this game. Now I can contribute to teamfights much better and I love you for it.
Finally decided to pick up GS, and this is the best guide video I've seen so far! Really nails it in terms of what muscle memory to build for.
I’m not used to the Greatsword, so I came in to get a few tips (LS/IG/CB/Hammer user). This was very informative, and should help ease the pain of missing every. single. strike. with this thing.
I liked this and had to comment because of how unreal this is. This is how its meant to be played. Hands down.
I always thought the GS was a slow and boring weapon with like 3 usable moves. In just 10 minutes you completely changed my opinion. Tried picking it up and it's an absolute blast.
Thank you.
Really love how you explore the whole moveset and its uses. Not just the typical, "META META META." Great vid👍👍
Thanks dude I just recently found gs to be my favorite weapon :) This video was very helpful!
Even after many years I still thought that the side sweep was a useless move, granted I didn't play GS that much, still u opened my eyes
For once the youtube algorhythm hit the nail on the head.. which is exactly what I'll be doing in my next hours with the game while trying to get this stuff into my muscle memory. After almost 600 hours maining the GS you'd think I knew everything, but as it turns out, I don't. Thank you kind sir, this'll be fun and interesting to learn.
I just started playing GS in Iceborne. I've been enjoying a lot, and your guide makes it look like a different weapon then I've been using. I've got a lot of practicing to do. Thank you for the effort you put into making this.
I've been playing GS since MHW came out, loved every second and you fundamentally changed my play style with this. Incredible.
What a fantastic guide explaining GS mechanics! Thx a lot!
Damn, what a great video and to think about the things I've missed all this time playing great sword, I feel like an absolute noon now, basically only ever used overhead slash, strong charce and TCS, you have truly shown me the light, thanks a lot
This guide instantly made me want to learn GS! Thank you for the informative video!
Fantastic video! I’ve mained GS for a while, but having just started Iceborne about a week ago I’m still figuring out the new mechanics. This definitely opened my eyes
Hey man, wanted to say thanks. I've been a GS main since Freedom Unite, but have been struggling in World. These, to me, were so easy to incorporate it feels like I knew them all along. Thank you so much for the advice.
John ofc my man😁
This is the best guide that i've find so far for GS, love ya dude, cheers!
Thank you man,when i first played this game i was a IG main,i tried GS and loved,with some knowledge,was easy to take down the biggest monsters,when iceborne came out the GS felt slow against the new and quicker monsters,i was pushed back to my IG,your video,your job helped me find my way back to my loved wyvern ignition!! +1 sub!!!!
Watching this as a PC player makes me miss my rocket sword, but good tips none the less. One thing to never underestimate it the ability to go from a jumping charged attacked, into the slinger burst, and a true charge. Really good when you have to position on the fly off an edge.
This video just made me a GS main. Well done! You should a level of creativity I havent seen in other vids.
very good, excelent guide. Thank you very much for posting this... And btw your player skill is spetacular.
Umbra Noctis thank you!!
Man 4 years later and i find that you can be this mobile with the GS. Thanks, your guide was amazing.
I was just wondering about these movements today. So glad the algorithm showed me ur vid. Good stuff
Surprisingly in-depth, you deserve more recognition
Bro, This is really awesome you're using the slinger to make more moves as if it's like you broke the entire mechanism of MHW. This is great. Thanks for this guide!
I'm a new player in MHW:I and I've always loved the Great Sword. I Though I main the GS in this game, I've always felt like I was inefficient. I decided to look for some GS guides and I've stumbled across this one and this is by far the best guide I stumbled across. You are awesome man. Thank you for sharing the blessings that you have been blessed with. Hunting with my GS feels lighter than ever. God bless you man.
Best guide yet - didn't feel as if I wasted a second. Thank you!
I'm very happy that I found this video, I didn't know a lot of the tips in this video and with them in mind GS actually feels like a hit and run weapon again. Thank you very much :)
Thanks for this guide! Learned some really cool ways to utilise the slinger shots. Will have to give it a go when I'm next one. Will definitely make positioning a lot easier.
Wow man you have opened my eyes. I thought the slinger burst was a neat short cut and I failed to see just how impactful it is on GS life. Thanks for the video you rock
Great guide with a lot of stuff that i havent seen in any other GS tutorial. The video is also very well structured and not too long.
Your guide helped me so much, finally someone that shows how to play with examples from a real hunt and not just Training pole or speedrun footage. Thanks alot for this, made me enjoy the game much more.
i just love how iceborne made slinger and rock ammo so important xD
Feel like I may go more times with Slinger Capacity with Atk boost lvl 4 Deco's now, to have more options lol.
Right?
Me before iceborne: the monster dropped slinger ammo? don't care.
Me after iceborne: the monster dropped slinger ammo? gotta cancel my TCS and pick that up so I can yeet a fool
This video deserves millions of views...!!! Man that is some awesome info, I didn’t even know half of the stuff you mentioned, def gonna try it all out. Cheers!
Best video I've found so far on Great sword moves! This was exactly what i was looking for
This is the best GS guide. I watched It like 6 months ago and now I came back to thank you.
Italo Stanley thanks for making my day👌
That's sweet, I always used Side Blow and Jumping Wide Slash pre-Iceborne, really great news that they get extra utility through Slinger Burst, thanks for the information
Great guide, really taking GS to the next level. Congrats
Holy shit this video was just perfect. Decided to main GS in Iceborne now that it hit PC and I won't lie, it wasn't exactly the most enjoyable experience with the mobs being so fast and not being CC'd with flashpods/stuns. I did a few hours of hunting after your video and holy what a difference the slinger rotation made, so many what would be missed TCS finally connecting! Changes the whole gameplay and idea of GS being an immobile weapon.
AcKing1 glad this guide ended up being a game changer for you!👌👌
OMG! This is the most helpful guide on all new ways of GS! I didn’t realise I’m only using 1/2 of the moves shown. Thank you so much!! 🤩
Still the most educational mhw video to date. Come back every time I get back into mhw for some new update.
I’m a hammer main through and through with over 600 hunts on hammer and I wanted to try my big weapon brethren Greatsword but was having trouble with positioning because I was used to the higher mobility of hammer. This guide is super helpful and gives great tips unlike a lot of other guides out there. Nice work!
This is a very helpful video, thank you for your effort. I like to play every weapon but have never done very well with the great sword. This should improve my abilities along with some practice.
Gs main here and this guide rocks
I recently got the game and I’m using the GS and after seeing you play, I need to get on your level. Also I love that “YEET”
Best GS video I've seen yet. I knew there had to be more to GS and you just broke it wide open. "It's about to get spicy" is an understatement. 👍👍
This guide changed my life. Loved it.
Video idea.. what can you shoulder tackle.. vs, should/shouldn’t tackle. Any skills that play into it, etc..
Great video and Info! I actually manage to master almost all the weapon except Gunlance and Greatsword but this video is now convince to pick up again with new knowledge.
Dude, i've avoided the greatsword for how clunky it is. I saw your vid, applied it to my gameplay I'm loving this weapon! You opened a whole new world of gameplay that I'm loving. Thanks
Why am I finding this now this is amazing! As a GS main this is incredibly useful for all of us new and old. Keep up the great work Man, I got some work to do, peace.
Ylfar Oden good luck!!
Why is the best G's guide out all I've seen 👀 simple and to the point.. thank you sir
You've sold me on GS for Iceborne. Nice vid.
I'm going to have to watch this video so many times haha
Absolutely 10/10 this is the guide i was looking for!
ty so much! Coming back and playing the GS and love the little tech with the basic big slash.
This is really helpful, thank you so much. I'm always forget about the slinger burst, gotta try to use it more often.
man i've been a gs main for ages but i have NEVER used the jumping wide slash. that's absolutely brilliant. i'm gonna have to learn gs all over again
Thanks for this great guide sir ! Gives a good idea on what you can do with it and how/when to do it :)
This video helped me figure out how to properly utilize all the new Iceborne moves. Definitely earned a like and new sub. Keep up the great work. 👍🏽😤
Thank you! Next guide is going to take a while :P
Nice, watched some other guides and this one so far gives me alot of info. Thanks!
This is really quality content. I am very impressed.
I never thought you could actually chain attacks and close wide distances with combos using the side blow. I've been only using the unsheathed roll + tackle to charge and counter through attacks and roars but it was never so efficient and effective (I always run out of stamina) T__T
Thank you so much man. Still helpful even after years. I very much appreciate all of this. Like and sub very well-deserved.
Love this guide not crazy complicated and just explains it so easily. Plus its still great even after all these years
I'm probably late to the party as I stopped playing MHW last 2019 but I have descended to the pits of hell again after getting my PS5.
Been using DS and GS since MHP3rd and this is the first time I've seen someone explained each move on a granular level. Best GS guide for beginners and even advance levels. Can't wait to try them out after my shift. Thank you!
got recommended to me, the most informative guide I've seen. I ought to implement this in my gs style
This video made me rediscover GS which I havent played since MHGen or something. Holy cow it feels like an entirely different thing now, and way more badass. I was also surprised by how much faster my hunts went compared to a few weeks ago playing CB, LS and HH. I love GS again thanks to this great guide. Too often the how to videos just reiterate movesets and that's it, this is a more practical way to show how to play the weapon. I don't even comment on YT but I like this so much so thanks again.
pencilswordfish this means a ton to me thank you🙏
honestly this was pretty revolutionary and made me look at great sword completely differently. thank you
