  • In a previous video, we showed how far The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's combat can be pushed. Some of what was shown may have been confusing, so we breakdown exactly what happened behind the scenes during these intense battles.
    In this video we go over techniques such as Pivot Shield Jumping, Shield Block Resets, Keese Orbiting, and more, showing how it can be used in combat to gain the upper hand over your enemies.
