I cannot understate how cool it is listening the music transition back and forth between the two characters versions of the themes. This game is AMAZING
@@P4r4k around 0:27 is the most noticable example, as it turns from Poms version of Paprikas stage into Tianhuo's for the rest of the round, but it goes back to Poms every so often. The music direction in this game was brilliant, and once you listen to the ost as a standalone piece of music it really becomes noticable in the gameplay
@@cademiksek6769 That's not Pom's version of the stage, it's the Neutral version of the stage. Pom's version is never actually heard here because she never gets a big enough lead/combo to make it activate. It transitions to Tian's version at 0:27 and then stays that way all the way to the very end of the match, right before Pom wins, where it transitions back to Neutral, followed by Pom's winning leitmotif for the stage, which is adorable. That's actually something I feel people tend to sleep on or perhaps not notice: The little musical leitmotifs that happen at the match intro, the outro, and the transitions _between_ rounds. Although hilariously, the transition from Round 1 to 2 got a little messed up because the Tian player continued comboing past the "KO!" popup. Normally the transition happens seamlessly with the black strokes screenwipe.
This is legitimately the first time I've seen mama dog make any difference in a match. Usually I just see her pose menacingly in the background while I wonder why my opponent even bothered.
I like how Tianhuo acts more like a mentor than just a battle obsessed character, every fight is a lesson and she may be even willing to help her opponent growing stronger if she sees potential
Basically: -Use the diggers to force the enemy to keep blocking after a block string so you can keep attacking -Use the flyer to extend combo from a launcher or try a surprise overhead after a block string, though comboing from that will not give you a ground bounce -The big dogs are terrifying when used for corner pressure ...I don't know how to use the growling pup, I know they can do a low but I keep whiffing it, I'm working on that
It's pretty funny if you pay close attention to how your opponents play style shifted in the last round once you got out of the corner. They stopped playing to win, and began playing to "not lose", holding block and leaving themselves open to more chip in between your pressure.
I absolutely love the way combos free flow in this game. And see how not every combo can be the same. Also that absolute clutch at the end G FUCKING G MATE
If anything else, them’s fightin’ herds is getting recognized for their fantastic online since that is how EVO is operating this year. Keep an eye out for Skullgirls and Killer Instinct too.
@@CereDulce37 I like how as soon as we finally hear from them about literally anything about updating skullgirls, its for the mobile version and will never make it to 2nd encore cause of the disgusting behind the scenes. Fun time for the fighter that supposedly was getting it's like 4th chance this year.
You shold have seen the livestreamn. They would spend hours showing off the mechanics. They showed how the mechanic was started, then tested and the final. This game was not rushed. Despite appearances, i honestly think it holds up with the best of them. The matches get crazy at times... Like this has certainly shown.
DraKaleel 18 wow that’s a crazy backstory. I only started getting into fighting games of last two years cause of dragon ball fighterz and it’s the only fighting game I’ve really played seriously. However I have started playing smash as well. It’s genuinely really fun playing and learning fighting games and I’ve wanted to actually play different fighting games. Dragon ball is fun but the online is so horrible. Maybe I shud try this game out. Is the online servers good in this game?
Honestly, this is one of the things that makes me hesitant to play Them's Fighting Herds. I swear everything is a long, perfectly exact combo string that needs to be memorized... =(
It's not nearly as complicated as it looks, you can do well with a simple A B C combo into a special move, the actual hard part is knowing when to block and when to attack, but the game's training mode and tutorial give you all the info you need Just dive in!
@@jojo95DK Maybe I'll give it a try. It definitely seems like all the videos I've seen have been nonstop giant combo strings, but if you say so, I can give it a go.
She has 3 attacks, if you always miss, I think it might be because you always try to use the counter move, she also has a direct attack and even an unblockable command grab you can combo off
Just bought this game and played it on stream-people from the community came and helped me get my feet on the ground. Can’t wait to keep digging into it! Hope to see you in matchmaking. 💪🏼
In addition to my last comment, I'd also like to say: It warms my heart and makes me chuckle that so many people got interested in this game, but so many don't know it's made by a brony dev team and was built on the ashes of Fighting is Magic.
Studying how these characters fight and im learning how to master them both, oh my god that was intense XD I wish you won not gonna lie! the way you kept bullying pom after she was down was LKE, DUDE STOP SHES DEAD ALREADY I SAUHDHAIOHDAISD
@@jojo95DK What I mean is that it didn't work the way it's supposed to. It didn't switch over to Pom's instruments when she was winning, and it didn't go up a half step for the final round.
@@dogman15 Pom didn't get a big enough lead/combo to steal the instruments away from Tian, and only was able to reset the music back to Neutral right before winning the match. The Final Round theme also DID kick in properly, it's just that Huacuya's FR theme sounds _very_ similar to the normal theme, and it still had Tian's instrumentals on it anyway. I find it funnier than the Tian player got cocky/stylish and kept comboing after the "KO!" in Round 1, which messed up the Tian transition into Round 2's music, which normally lines up with the black screenwipe.
The game that got DnC'd was literally a MLP fighting game lol, TFH is the answer to counter those claims TFH is an unique property owned by Mane6, Hasbro has nothing on that
I cannot understate how cool it is listening the music transition back and forth between the two characters versions of the themes. This game is AMAZING
And it's fun to play
I don't really notice that, when is the transition?
@@P4r4k when a character has a large lead

The way you brought it back was miraculous, and the combos were astounding!
Thanks, it really was a miracle !
@@jojo95DK ABSOLUTELY AMAZING...I didn't knew this game even exist...
*In LTG voice* YOU SAID THAT POM WAS MIRACULOUS!?!?!?! GET THAT ASS BANNED!

@@jojo95DK you're truly amazing at this game
I like how Tianhuo acts more like a mentor than just a battle obsessed character, every fight is a lesson and she may be even willing to help her opponent growing stronger if she sees potential
I haven't seen a lot of this game but Tianhuo's playstyle looks absolutely brutal
It is but so is poms sometimes
It's because her moves look brutal, I believe lol
"easy"
At 1:17 :"Stop *cries* Stop *cries* She's already dead!"
I was like “dude chill you already won the round.”
And im just eating chips
Hey, free meter is free meter.
@@tri_x3338 Dick move is dick move
I love how you hear the song difference when one character is winning! That sound/music design is what I live for
*Breaking news*
*local pom literally too scared to die*
Edit: omg tysm for the likes yall
It's a facade, she puts fear on everyone else, but Pom does not feel fear herself
@@jojo95DK I low-key feel like that's literally what pom does to win the match, the worst thing you can do is underestimate your opponent
They're just likes, you ruined your comment with such a pointless edit
@@ichiban9662 ah yes, how dare i show appreciation, my bad
@@averagewolfgirf Likes are cool
I'm trying to learn Pom and this is so inspiring. The way you used the dogs were amazing!
Basically:
-Use the diggers to force the enemy to keep blocking after a block string so you can keep attacking
-Use the flyer to extend combo from a launcher or try a surprise overhead after a block string, though comboing from that will not give you a ground bounce

Wow, never seen anyone pull out a victory like that with Pom. Certainly, i think she is one of the hardest fighters to master.
She absolutely is, but she's crazy strong once you know how to use her dogs
It's pretty funny if you pay close attention to how your opponents play style shifted in the last round once you got out of the corner. They stopped playing to win, and began playing to "not lose", holding block and leaving themselves open to more chip in between your pressure.
She was scared by Pom, and rightfully so
@@jojo95DK Never mess with the quiet ones
4:17 Bad puppies!! (I love you puppies...)
I think she say "good puppies"
Br
AndroidPS1 She does
That comeback at the end was fucking *godlike.* Massive props.
This one. This was the video that made me excited about this game, and I've bought it and now love it. So thank you, Jojo, for sharing this with us.
Eyy ! Glad to have you on board
I absolutely love the way combos free flow in this game. And see how not every combo can be the same. Also that absolute clutch at the end G FUCKING G MATE
how come this game ive never heard of got reccomended to me? and why is this so epic anyway?
It got INTO EVO!
@@jojo95DK no wayy!! will you be competing??
@@microwavetrash2501 No, lmao
If anything else, them’s fightin’ herds is getting recognized for their fantastic online since that is how EVO is operating this year. Keep an eye out for Skullgirls and Killer Instinct too.
@@jojo95DK clearly it was always destined to get there.
Announcer: that was close!
Very
Jo Jo You clutched it, man! Clutched hard!
I never seen a fighting game like this before in my life, in addition to that this game looks really fun what's it called.
Them fighting herds
If you liked it you should take a look to skullgirls too

Oof that final combo drop must've been brutally heartbreaking for Tianhou
*Carry Pom into a corner*
Pom: I'm not locked in here with you, YOU'RE LOCKED IN HERE WITH ME!
When JoJo gives you a headstart so you can feel like you won.
I never knew the pony fighter was this interesting damn!
Despite the small roster, TFH is a true fighting game that is just as good as other AAA games like Granblue
@@Parpeing Lol you're right, what I meant is that this game is not just a cheap fighting game with half assed mechanics
@@Parpeing Some fighting games were clearly not designed with competitive balance in mind.
TFH was.

Some of the best netcode for a fighting game
Very nice comeback! I've never seen combos with Pom like that besides CPUs tbh... (I need to play online more) 😅
Thank you, Pom is a very fun character to play
If this comes out for the switch that be fun
And with crossplay it would be amazing!
@@sketch-eee4165 it would be the switch might not be the most powerful system but it should be able to run this well

I loved how those big bears and animals protected Pom or helped her haha! mmm I think I should try this game someday
Those are her loyal dogs
Dude, she was stomping your f'ing yard in that first round!
That Tian is decent
@@jojo95DK I meant mostly in the moves she pulled on you after your KO. That was a bit much. XD
@@Igarappappa That Tian be FLEXING
In FGC terminology it is usually called "downloading data."
how did you hit with mama dog jesus i always miss
She has 3 attacks, if you always miss, I think it might be because you always try to use the counter move, she also has a direct attack and even an unblockable command grab you can combo off

... A sheep that herds dogs.
Ok.
Pom: Call an ambulance! Call an ambulance! *BUT NOT FOR ME*
Also Pom: (Actually wait, yeah, probably one for me too)
I remember this was mlp fighting is magic before hasbro sent out a cease and desist
You can tell the guy you were fighting was an infinite combo try hard the way you brought it back was amazing
omggg!!!! what a game !
I know right??
Thems Fightin' Herds lad... get it?
The style when i saw it i sair
m y l i t t l e p o n y
@@silviamarques2837 I mean, it is a rebranded MLP fan game lmao
Kingdom Hearts sure filled you with the power of darkness.
Indeed, join the dark side, we have cool matching outfits and cookies
The opponent became desperate and could not reason things out.
1:17 "Let her ALONE! She's already DEAD!"
BEST VIDEO BEST COMEBACK OF 2020
Watching this game is hypnotizing
I love iiiiittt and I agree with the music transitions, they're just wonderful to hear!

Good thing is might be an EVO game then.

@@mathunit1 hopefully next year it gets it's chance again

*Incoming Sky Bison*
MANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL THAT WAS INSANE!!! GOOD JOB
Thanks ! I really pulled this one out of my butt
THE COMEBACK KID!!! one of the best tfh vids I've seen thus far
Translation: Pom gets absolutely decimated, but wins with barely a sliver of consciousness left.
Holyyyyyy SHIT, my dude!
Very well-played from both fighters.
Something didn't seem right about the dynamic music system at the end of round two, and going into the final round.
I dunno, it gave me an "Underdog" vibe, I like how it went
@@jojo95DK What I mean is that it didn't work the way it's supposed to. It didn't switch over to Pom's instruments when she was winning, and it didn't go up a half step for the final round.

@@SmokeRulz Interesting analysis.
That one dislike must be the enemy Tian Huo!
Don't worry, I'll ask Pom to bark on them, that'll calm them down
Jesus I was worried for a second, that Tianhuo was relentless
That victory came in super clutch!
I've never heard of this game and this appeared on my recommended. I don't know what the fuck is going on but it looks awesome.
Bad puppy!
(whispers) Good puppy.
Bro made a bigger comeback than packgod.
Now THAT'S what you call an epic come back!
Holy shit, that was insane!
So this is what the dark side of MLP looks like
the animations look so smooth
Zarpado amigo, te luciste!
WTF did i just watched...?! O_o
gotta admit tianhuo looks dope with the colors
Tianhuo: Now, it's my turn!
You: Is it? Is it really?
Comeback is real.
So Pom is the Zato-1/Carl Clover if the game, I suppose.
This game looks like it feels like Melty Blood.
It does have a similar combo system, but you can block grounded normals in the air, so it's nowhere near as punishing
Невероятный камбэк Пом :3
@ The End...that was sick af
Mark my words, ill main pom
That clutch was INSANE
What systems can you get this game on or is it just for PC?
This feel like playing a WIP Rainbow Dash doing awesome combo.
Dang, you deserve more experience!
4:18 awe lol
Great match man!
I never knew this game came out in 2018, and I'm a brony. I guess real life kept me from fun.
That was a reference to Mulan about the ancestors dizzy
Wasnt this orginally a MLP fan game?
Yep, Hasbro C&Ded it so Lauren Faust and some of the VAs got on board with an original project.
*R E M A T C H ?*
0:02 That sounds like a Mulan reference Idk
It is one.
Oh I've never seen this game before
Though it looks amazing!
Can someone tell me what this game is?
Them's Fightin' Herds, it's on Steam
She talked so much shit to her in the intro knowing pom is scared as fuck!
She wasn't ready
That's a table flipper for your opponent
Fear the barking sheep
He started reading the overhead
Nice comeback!
That was sick!!
Oh wow, that recovery!
Sick ‘em lads 😍
ok but what is the music called? (on the first round)
czcams.com/video/uaj3a3rspdA/video.html
Might be this one
Opponent used to how easy her character is they were really mashing in the end lol
Why the fuck is this cutesy ass game such a lit fighting game?
Accurate reaction
Gosh, I would like to have stronger PC for this game :c
oh my god you fucking killed her dude
Fights like that give me hope
I think Pom its what you feel rn
Holy crap Flutteryshy Sheep got some moves!
Hell yeah
It's surprising that this game managed to get on console too! Especially after that whole cease and desist incident from Hasbro.
