Oh shit Seamless Co-Op has invasions now, that's neat
I like that you can choose to turn them on or off though, that's a cool feature for the people who don't care for pvp
That said, the thing I am most worried but also excited for though is that Seamless Co-op doesn't have any kind of anticheat at all as far as I know, so I'm really curious as to how the "Everyone can cheat as much as they want" thing is gonna affect the meta lol

You want a Ranged Job with whips? You want rope of leather with limited movement? You want a weapon with some kinda ehhhhhh ethics and history? NO. YOU WANT ROPE DART. Rope dart is part of a category of "soft weapons" in kung fu, but has since also been expanded upon by the Flow Arts community. There are numerous categories of soft weapons including "whips" like chain whip and 9-section whip (similar to what Victor Belmont uses) which function very differently from your traditional wrapped leather whip and are leagues cooler. The movement of these is far more fluid, and the attachment of a rope dart, meteor hammer, monkey paw, etc allows for not only the ability to stab your enemy while engaging in social distancing, but greater control of the weapon via the Science of Physics (tm). This allows for beautiful and fluid attack animations on par with DNC and SGE.
The Job with the most diverse weapons in game is MNK, featuring knuckles, fists, claws, tonfa, katar, deer-horn knives, and more. With a rope-dart ranged, there are equally endless possibilities for the stylization of both the tether (chain, rope, silks, sections, etc) and the attachment (ball, blade, point, claw, fire, a dead rat, idk whatever). Currently, the only MMO with a rope dart inspired class is Black Desert, with the gender-locked Lahn. DON'T SLEEP ON ROPE DART.

Did someone say COMPLETE DATA ANALYSIS OF ALL THE DEATHS IN THE LIFE SERIES? No? Well. I did it. Here are some neat graphs for you guys to look at so that you don’t have to deal with the gigantic spreadsheet I did!
Let’s start off with the big bad question: what gets people killed in this game, anyway?
Tumblr media
Note that a CAUSE OF DEATH is not the same as a KILL. Cause of death is what pops up in the chat when someone dies (ex. PearlescentMoon was slain by Smallishbeans, BdoubleO100 fell from a high place). The cause of death does not always account for player responsibility (ex. TNT traps). Generally, a player is only considered to be someone’s cause of death if the death occurs through direct PvP combat. HOWEVER, responsibility for an indirect kill such as a trap still goes toward a player’s total kill count—for example, Joel has 14 kills overall, 10 of which are direct enough for him to be considered the actual cause of death. After all, axes don’t kill people without being swung by someone.
A few other whacky things about kill counts:
Self-inflicted deaths do not count toward a player’s kill count (ex. Grian doesn’t get a kill for jumping off Monopoly Mountain at the end of 3rd Life, Scott doesn’t get a kill for blowing himself up at the end of Double Life).
When it comes to Double Life, soulmates are considered to share their three lives. No distinction is made between Soulmate A's life and Soulmate B's life, and each death only counts as one kill (ex. Joel gets one kill for killing Scott with fireworks, even though that also killed Pearl (however, Pearl’s cause of death is still Joel, as her life is considered the same as Scott’s)).
Using the /kill command does not count toward your kill count. Grian.
With that cleared up, let’s look at kill counts.
Tumblr media
By the skin of his teeth, Grian leads the pack in total kills. The top three you see on that graph are the only players who have a KDR (kill-to-death ratio) of more than 1—for you folks who are unfamiliar with those, a KDR of more than 1 means you kill other people more often than you die. Less than 1 means you die more often than you kill other people. Here are the highest and lowest KDRs in the series:
Tumblr media
“What’s this?” I hear you say. “Jimmy Wet-Paper-Bag-of-a-Man Solidarity DOESN’T have the lowest KDR in the series?”
No. No, he does not, and it’s actually really funny you should ask.
Because of Last Life’s mechanic of life transferring, even players that have been in all three installments of the Life Series don’t have the same death count. Eight players died more than three times in Last Life. Another eight died exactly three times. And one player only died twice.
By virtue of starting on yellow and never receiving any extra lives in Last Life, Jimmy holds the record for fewest deaths in an installment of the Life Series with just two deaths in Last Life. He is the only player to ever die less than three times in a game. This means that although he has just one kill, he has fewer total deaths than BigB (who has died a very standard nine times), the only other player with one kill, so his KDR is higher. Congrats, Jimmy, you’re not last in everything. But you are still the only player without a PvP kill.
Speaking of PvP, it’s time to look at how people do that! Here’s a graph of the top five weapons that tend to land PvP kills the most in the series:
Tumblr media
And now here’s weapon preferences by game:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[Double Life not depicted due to lack of PvP deaths—only 4 occurred, using a diamond axe, a diamond sword, fireworks, and an iron axe respectively.]
Despite 19 more deaths occurring in Last Life than 3rd Life, the two actually have the exact same amount of PvP kills (28). It’s interesting to note the strong preference for bows in 3rd Life, which was a much more warlike game and had several fairly formal battles where people fought from a distance. Last Life required an overall sneakier strategy, resulting in a higher use of traps. In combat, non-ranged weapons like swords and axes were generally preferred due to fights often starting in close proximity and without warning, courtesy of the Boogeyman curse. Comparatively, Double Life saw remarkably few PvP kills, likely due to each person being twice as accident-prone by virtue of being linked to another player—in fact, with a total of 12, accidents accounted for three times as many deaths as PvP in Double Life and overall for more than half (57%) of the deaths in the game.
As for individual player stats sheets, here’s an example of one of those:
Tumblr media
If you want to see one of those for ALL 17 PLAYERS, you can go to this slideshow! More details about the stats can be found in the presentation notes of each slide. And, if you have a really specific question and want to get into the nitty gritty, feel free to send me an ask! Hope you guys enjoyed the data!

I don't think we talk enough about Cleo. She's somehow fooled most of the server and the fandom that she's this badass pvp girlboss that'll eat your bones but as soon as you watch any of her videos she's like "hey guys :) gonna build some fun statues today, I sure hope nobody picks a fight with me because I'll lose and then cry *proceeds to miss an axe crit on an unmoving target at least three times*"

Hermitcraft Guide: Transcript/accessible version
Tumblr media
Hermitcraft is a vanilla style* multiplayer server that has been running in a season format since 2012. Each season, the players move to a new world and start anew, meaning now’s the perfect time to start watching!
The server is invite only, and new people can join only when the existing Hermits unanimously agree that they would be a good fit. The Hermits have regular meetings to discuss new ideas and any concerns.
I don’t recommend watching every episode by every Hermit. There’s shows like HermitCraft Recap to keep you up to date! Don’t feel obligated to watch everything, just have fun!
* the server is mostly unmodded, but in recent seasons, the Hermits have been implementing custom items and texture packs for the sake of storytelling
Individual hermit descriptions under the cut
Descriptions are all edited by myself, with some contributions from other people :)
Tumblr media
Hermit: BdoubleO100
Quote: “Axe wielding maniac, that’s me!”
Flags: USA
Description: Bdubs is a master at using unconventional blocks in his highly detailed builds.

Tumblr media
Hermit: Cubfan135
Quote: “There is redstone back there… Basically, it does stuff.”
Flags: USA
Description: Cub is really good at basically every aspect of Minecraft, and always goes big in his projects. With Scar, he created a capitalistic empire and then decided he didn’t care for industry afterward, since he had already won. Cub then became a freeloading basement dweller. He enjoys confusing other people with strange antics.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Docm77
Quote: “We will crush them with our redstone spaghetti”
Flags: Germany
Description: A bit of an intense guy, Doc is unafraid to play the scary villain. Don’t let that fool you – he’s a big softie. His Twitter is 50% “hey who wants to see the game-breaking death machine I built” and 50% about his adorable kid, nicknamed “Doccy”
His arm was canonically destroyed by the Minecraft dev Dinnerbone back in 2013.

Tumblr media
Hermit: FalseSymmetry
Quote: The Queen of Hearts, Heads and Body Parts
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Very approachable and friendly, but has a reputation for her confidence in PVP. False works on very large, thematically strong builds. She was the first Minecraft Championship participant to achieve multiple consecutive wins.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Geminitay
Quote: “How am I supposed to Live Laugh Love in these conditions!?”
Flags: Canada, Bisexual
Description: Gem is a talented builder with an appreciation of cute aesthetics that’s matched only by her thirst for blood. She’s truly earned the descriptor “Geminislay.”
She joined in season 8, and has effectively struck fear into the hearts of the other Hermits, particularly Etho, despite her wholesome personality.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Grian
Quote: “Not everything I do has to start a war, okay? Sometimes I just want to start a society of sewer mole people.”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Grian always builds big and pranks bigger. He delights in nothing less than being a public nuisance. This starts (good-natured) wars within the server repeatedly.
He’s very social, but is basically glued to Mumbo and Scar. Infamously never bothers with the backs of his builds.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Impulse SV
Quote: "I hate being bad at stuff!"
Flags: USA
Description: Impulse gets a reputation for being super nice all the time but he will hold a grudge forever.
He once moved his entire base up by one block because he thought it would make it look better (it did)
One season he ate crystals.
[Description provided by sudden-memory-loss]
Tumblr media
Hermit: Hypnotizd
Quote: “And then I found an enderchest here, it’s got a lot of good stuff in it!”
Flags: USA
Description: Hypno's one of the more reserved Hermits, sticking to himself (+ bothering xB and Jevin). He's extremely laid-back and has a little bit of a deadpan silly sense of humor. He’s a very observant guy who builds geometric and rustic creations. His post-annotated runs of the minigame Decked Out 2 are great if you want to see someone actively break down how they play!
[Description provided by anon]
Tumblr media
Hermit: Iskall85
Quote: “Let’s not end it on a goodbye, let’s end it on a Hallo”
Flags: Sweden
Description: A hardworking builder and redstone engineer. Loves making minigames, most of which revolve around gambling. Iskall is a dedicated hater of diorite blocks. Creator of the Vault Hunters modpack and server(s), which he has spent most his time playing recently.
Tumblr media
Hermit: JoeHills
Quote: “Sufficiently advanced bothering-each-other is indistinguishable from teamwork”
Flags: USA

Tumblr media
Hermit: iJevin
Quote: “It’s actually pretty straightforward and almost easy. Sometimes.”
Flags: USA
Description: Unashamed. Just in general. A real hard worker who’s willing to destroy a massive project and start over. This commitment carries over into prank wars, which escalate to truly ludicrous heights.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Keralis
Quote: “Let’s take the Black Death. I like the sound of that.”
Flags: Sweden, Poland
Description: Keralis favours modern, industrial-styled builds that carry the impression of wealth and prestige. His creations always have a strong sense of life to them. Keralis has a habit of referring to the others with silly nicknames such as “Shashwammy” and  “Bubbles”,
Tumblr media
Hermit: PearlescentMoon
Quote: “Yeah, I’m a little suspicious of myself to be honest.”
Flags: Australia
Description: Pearl is perhaps one of the best builders in all of MCYT. Her works are awe-inspiring in scale, but really shine in their details. A long-time friend of Grian, she joined HC in season 8 and fits right in, with a unique energy that’s full of fun. She is always up for a light bit of pranking or teasing, with unstoppable chaotic energy when she’s up at 5am for events.
[Description provided by cerealisafunbath and anon]
Tumblr media
Hermit: Mumbo Jumbo
Quote: “If I forget, slap me. With a cold, vegan fishcake”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Mumbo is best known for his eccentric redstone creations. He’s sometimes too ambitious for his own good – his ideas blow up in his face at the worst possible moments. He’s got a lovable awkward energy and strange, extremely British mannerisms.
Tumblr media
Hermit: GoodTimesWithScar
Quote: “A laugh is worth far more than a diamond.”
Flags: USA
Description: Scar’s building skills and storytelling will make believe in magic and want to see what he’ll do next. Scar can pull pranks and act the villain as good as anyone else on Hermitcraft, but no matter what role Scar is playing, you will have a good time. He’s banned from Canada, so he banned the nation of Canada from his theme park.
Scar IRL has a chronic disease that he’s very open about, and uses a wheelchair. Check out his day in the life videos!
[Description provided by anon]
Tumblr media
Hermit: Rendog
Quote: “Have a lovely day warmbloods, I’m off to sharpen my bones.”
Flags: United Kingdom, South Africa
Description: Ren is the hermit most likely to jump in to some over-the-top storytelling, mixing it with his regular content for some impressive arcs. He’s played a lot of roles, from mind-controlled business tycoon to time travelling hippie.
Tumblr media
Hermit: StressMonster101
Quote: “Come and chase me boys! I’m going to murder you!”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Stress is known for describing everything she loves as “gorgeous!” It’s definitely her catchphrase.
She uses a lot of pink and purple, and loves bright fantasy aesthetics. She’s closest with Iskall, who she will bother at every opportunity.
Tumblr media
Hermit: Tango Tek
Quote: “Would I put a tu-tu on my Fifi? Come on!”
Flags: USA
Description: Tango is the creator of the in-Minecraft minigame Decked-Out, which everyone on the server is obsessed with. He’s a lover of all things dramatic and explosive. Tango is hungry for feedback and improvement, and values honesty about his work. World's best minigame creator and world's worst minigame player. Master of making strange noises.
[Desciption provided by sudden-memory-loss]
Tumblr media
Hermit: VintageBeef
Quote: “I respectfully decline your creepy ways.”
Flags: Canada
Description: Beef is the most enthusiastic user of the mechanic that allows players to make massive builds into tiny map-based pixel art. He uses this for a lot of different purposes, from wallpaper to custom card games. It takes a lot of dedication, which he has in spades. He's oblivious in the best way possible. He’s walking in circles, he’s misplacing items, he’s having fun.
[Description provided by two anonymous contributors]
Tumblr media
Hermit: WelsKnight
Quote: “I’ve got a fever and the only prescription is trading card games.”

Tumblr media
Hermit: xBCrafted
Quote: “Awwww yeah!”
Flags: USA
Description: xB posts often, about two or three times a week. His videos always go over his thought process a lot more than anyone else. His builds have a strong focus on environmental storytelling.
Tumblr media
Hermit: XisumaVoid
Quote: “I’ve got derp on the mind”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Xisuma tends to pick a theme for his big projects and always wears a matching costume. He describes himself as a big derp, and no one agrees on how to pronounce his name.
He doesn’t reset his episode number each season, so he’ll be starting season 10 with episode #1128! Xisuma is the server’s admin, which is a big responsibility without the powertrip due to the Hermits’ commitment to group decision making.
Tumblr media
Hermit: ZombieCleo
Quote: "I'll break you legs"
Flags: United Kingdom, Bisexual. Cleo uses She/They pronouns, but I do not know if they identify as nonbinary.
Description: Cleo enjoys detail work, being the number-one user of the posable armour stand tweak, which she uses to make dioramas and statues. They have a rather dry, mature sense of humour. Formerly a schoolteacher. Cleo is close friends with Joe, and the two regularly stream activities such as crafting together
Tumblr media
Hermit: Zedaph Plays
Quote: “Is this a bad idea? Yes. Am I gonna do it anyway? Yes.”
Flags: United Kingdom
Description: Focuses more on making his own fun than on traditional builds. Zedaph is the human embodiment of an explosion happening in another room and hearing someone yell out "it's fine!". A very polite and confusing mad scientist. He does the wildest things just because he can. His editing style is fun and creative, featuring stop-motion montages.
[Description provided by sudden-memory-loss and anon]
New hermits:
Tumblr media

Tumblr media

_
Tumblr media
In Loving Memory of
Hermit: Tinfoil Chef
Flags: USA
Description:
A beloved member of Hermitcraft since season 2, TFC passed in 2022.
“Five blocks at a time…
Punctuated with a torch…
Five more once again…
TinfoilChef worked at his own
speed, in his own way…
May we all remember him
in our own ways by striving…
to live unhurried by unwarranted comparisons to those around
and bring joy to others
making the art we want to create.”
[Poem by an anonymous Hermit, likely Joe]

That ficlet of “How long can Helsknight and Wels go without wanting to maul each other to death” gives me the idea of like. Yknow that trope where two characters you assume have never met each other turn out in fact to be buddies who like play pool together or something. That’s Helsknight and XB. Wels gets shunted to Hels and finds XB just chillin in a bar with Hels and goes “WHAT THE FUCK BRO”
"Hels Kitchen, huh?" xB asked, looking up at the sign and raising a spined eyebrow. "This new?"
Helsknight shrugged, leading the way inside. "New enough."
xB sauntered behind him, taking in his surroundings with an easygoing smile. Hels was a little hot for his tastes, but he knew from experience he would get used to the heat after a few minutes. He watched Helsknight toss the bartender (who seemed to be just a very large, contained ghast) a handful of diamonds to cover their tab, and the two made their way to the pool table in the back of the little bar. xB swiped up a couple beers, snapped the cap off one with his teeth (those sharp guardian teeth were good for something after all) and set it down on the side of the table while Helsknight prepped the game.
"It's been a hot minute," xB observed, carefully checking over pool cues for one that wasn't bent. "Been busy busting heads in the Colosseum?"
Helsknight shrugged. "Nah. Mostly just caught up with life stuff. You know how it is."
xB, who had forgotten their meet up last month because he was busy digging a hole to bedrock, knew exactly how it was. "So you haven't been practicing pool while I've been gone?"
"I'll still beat you," Helsknight grinned challengingly. "Guests break."
xB snapped the cap off the second beer, took a drink, made a face that Helsknight laughed at, and then got to work aiming his shot. It was a good break, though the eight ball danced by one of the side pockets, a little too close for comfort. He got one of the striped balls in, and claimed the stripes for the rest of the game. He took his second shot, missed, and stepped aside for Helsknight.
Pool was such a weird game for them to settle on as their friendly competition. Helsknight was a pro at PvP, all things swords and axes and shields. But xB wasn't, and even if it was, swords was Helsknight's job, more or less, and xB could appreciate wanting to do something that wasn't your job, no matter how much you enjoyed it. It was for the same reason he was grateful Helsknight hadn't suggested they go build train cars when they hung out, or terraform movie scenes. He enjoyed it, but this was his off time. The first couple times they met up, they tried playing TCG, but Helsknight was a little too competitive, and xB got tired of debating rules minutiae (and being forced to stomp home and ask Beef a thousand questions). Then they played just normal cards, which lead to the discovery they both appreciated good beer, which lead to barhopping, because hels had bars. Hermitcraft didn't. And eventually, barhopping lead to playing pool, and pool was just the kind of low-stakes game they could both enjoy. Plus both Helsknight and xB were just prickly enough that most folks looking for a fight passed them over, and any who didn't, xB and Helsknight could solidly knock around. xB wasn't a PvPer, but he was big and thorny, and his sharp teeth were good for more than just popping bottle caps.
"You're up," Helsknight told him, leaning against the wall and chalking his pool cue.
"Does that really help?" xB asked, lining up his next shot. He cracked the cue ball into a bunch, breaking them apart. None of them sunk.
"No idea," Helsknight shrugged, putting the chalk back on the side of the pool table. "If it does, it's not in any way I can see."
"So why put it on?"
"That's all this game is good for. Knocking things around and getting chalk on your hands."
"It's also good for avoiding things," xB smirked. "Left the cue by the eight ball for you."
"Rude."
"Just keeping your life interesting."
Helsknight danced around the table, trying to find a good angle and making increasingly frustrated faces. xB smirked and took another sip of his beer, and then grimaced, because he forgot how bad it was. He needed to make sure he remembered this brand so they never got it again. Helsknight had just about lined up his shot when the lights in the already dimly lit bar space flickered ominously. xB raised a questioning eyebrow in the knight's direction.
"What was--"
"XB!" Welsknight came stumbling out of nowhere, all tin-can-armor-clatter. Stumbled into the pool table, shaking the eight ball into the side pocket.
"Hah! I win," xB grinned.
"You did not," Helsknight snapped, slamming his cue in the pool table. "That wasn't fair and you know it!"
"He's your other half dude. It counts."
Helsknight's eyes narrowed, and xB held up placating hands. (He forgot how much Hels and Wels hated each other sometimes. Really it was like watching brothers argue.)
"What in hels is going on?!" Welsknight demanded, re-injecting himself into the conversation. "xB, Hypno said you--"
"See, I told him not to tell you where I was," xB huffed, crossing his arms. "That was just rude of him."
"What are you even doing here?!"
"Playing pool," xB smiled, at about the same time Helsknight spat, "None of your damn business!"
The two knights glared at each other.
xB quietly wondered if he should interrupt their spat or egg them on.
The large ghast behind the bar counter hissed, grabbing all of their attention. It wafted a tentacle over to tap a sign, that said: Anyone caught fighting must buy a round for the bar, or be thrown out. xB looked back at Helsknight, watching him count first the other patrons in the bar, then the diamonds still left in his coin purse, do some mental math, and decide rather magnanimously that decking Welsknight wasn't worth it.
xB offered Welsknight a pool cue, "Care to join us?"
Welsknight eyed the pool cue like it was a snake, before begrudgingly taking it. xB went to get a new stick for himself while Helsknight begrudgingly reset the game.
It really was a good game when you wanted to avoid things.

anyway. rewatching ll finale and . you can hear joels keyboard and mouse when he panics. because obviously joel can actually pvp he usually fights in a controlled way (crits and using his shield and dodging), but near the end when hes 1v2ing ren and scott he just starts hitting almost blindly. like you can see the desperation in the way hes fighting and in the background you can hear his mouse and keyboard and you wouldn't in any other situation. and other people are scared of joel because he can pvp and is able to do axe crits and stuff but then as soon as he panics he just starts losing that and yeah idk hes kinda tragic to me.

"B-b-b-but Varré," you whimper. "Isn't the hand axe just a shitty starter weapon?"
Tumblr media
I've a riddle for you, my braindead strength enjoyer. What comes out faster than a straight sword, hits harder than an estoc, and is usable by virtually any build, with some of the lowest starting requirements in the Lands Between?
Tumblr media
When equipped in your off-hand, the hand axe's L1 delivers WICKEDLY fast. It does great poise damage for how quickly its strikes come out, and can be infused with NUMEROUS utilitarian ashes of war.
Odd weapon matchups can oft bamboozle your opponent, thus the Left-Handed Hatchet Meta was born. It's perfectly viable to main-hand a slow, large weapon, and use your offhand hand axe to squeeze in cheeky strikes when you don't have the spacing or timing to get your main hand off.
Where the hand axe is most effective, however, is adding pressure to a combo - landing a strike with, say, one of these:

-staggering your quarry - you won't have time to queue up another strike from a colossal sword before your slippery little tarnished dodges out of a second hit - but you DO have time to hack at them with your offhand axe!
So next time you think about dissing your poor little hand axe for being a "starter weapon"...
Consider the mountain of corpses it leaves behind in PVP <3

happy halloween!! have some fighting headcanons! (characters, obvs)
long-ish post
etoiles!! he is a warrior at heart, honest and loyal
I would think his fighting style is heavy on the footwork and agility + doing the most damage in as little strikes as possible
visually graceful, but almost impossible to follow?
matches pace w his opponents
very much on the offensive majority of the time
heavily trained (common style of fighting, but super fucking good at it so that it seems extremely unique)
soo so unserious tho
fights for the thrill!! the only time he actually got serious was the battle against the 3 codes (where he fought code!pomme… n where he died…)
incapcitates, then kills
honorable fighter! will not play dirty
tanks
large bladed weapons are his go to (swords, scythes, etc)
phil!!! survivalist extraordinaire
picks his fights! knows when he cant win
also very movement based,, uses his wings as a counterbalance more often than not (therefore making a lot of moves that are physically impossible to normal humans)
defensive fighter, fights to incapacitate?
more unique style, as he learned from mostly himself n he refined it
efficient but an honorable fighter as well
fast. like, scary fast
keeps his emotions in check (funnels his emotions into his swings)
doesnt like fighting much (lie)
will play dirty if desperate!
tanks!
best with scythes n axes
fit!!!!!!! 2b2t historian, did you know that 2b2t is the oldest-
also picks his fights (very carefully!)
hard hitter, more on the barrage type instead of the strike n wait
on the offensive, prone to switching to the defensive tho
generally unpredictable movements (hes batshit insane)
sporadic, hard to pin down style
not the most serious fighter. taunts a lot, goes quiet when focused (first i lol'd, but then i serioused >:0)
dirty fighter!! all those years of 2b2t taught him that :D
goes for the kill when stakes are high
will play honorably IF he respects his opponent/considers his opponent a good person, but even then he'll use every trick up his sleeve to win!
although,,, he will back out of a fight he knows he cant win (and even if he could win, he'd weigh the pros n cons)
kinda,, support,,,
he makes me think of a scavenger tbh
prefers smaller, more handy weapons (axes, explosives, knives, etc)
bad!!!! totally-not-a-demon demon
im gonna say it again (its that he picks his fights)
goes for the confusion tactics (feints n tricks n misleads n misdirects etc)
similar to fit in the taunts n unseriousness n the silent focus
enjoys the hunt
falls in step w his opponents when the stakes are low
refined fighting style (had a lot of time to work on it and boy did he)
when the stakes are high,,,, his fighting seems frantic yet somehow practiced, every move is deliberate
a shadowed blur on the battlefield
goes for the jugular lolz
when he has the upperhand.. he plays with his food tbh
bites off more than he can chew sometimes
prefers the defensive
also a barrage of attacks instead of wait n strike (death by a thousand cuts kinda)
plays SO dirty its not even funny (it is a little funny..)
avid scythe user!! (likes comically oversized weapons tho, like his warhammer)
roier! idk that much abt him but ive heard that hes a great fighter as well so im gonna throw in my guesses as to how he fights
gets underestimated a lot? works on his side tho bc he is a ruthless fighter
a very emotional fighter, but uses it to his advantage
on the defense a lot, brutal on the offense??
surprisingly graceful
incapacitates
not the most refined style, but very efficient
sword guy!! but like a perfectly weighted sword? (very particular about his weapons?)
jaiden!!! havent seen her pvp much but these are headcanons so-
learned from the best! (roier)
hard hitter, zones into an enemy and doesnt let up
stays in one location, pivoting is key (stands her ground)
uses her wings to gain extra speed if she had to change locations
not super experienced, but a quick learner
very defensive
channels emotions into swings (kinda wears her heart on her sleeves tho)
goes for the kill for opponents she has grudges against?
another scythe enjoyer!!
pac! also idk that much about him but he seems ergonomic
VERY graceful fighter
underestimates himself?
footwork is very particular and careful, almost like a dance
defensive fighter
either quiet, focused fighting or screaming, crying throwing up fighting, no in between LMAO
kinda a dirty fighter as well? not super on purpose but learned it from prison times
he seems like a rapier kinda guy (swords!!!)
feel free to add on!!! esp if u have disagreements w my hcs hehe

Okay so the hosts might never see this post but I need to share a GREAT invasion I had in Seamless Coop. I unfortunately didn't record it but I remember it vividly.
I load in, and they've just beaten Godrick. The host was named Shooty McShoot, and my first thought was "probably a bow character". Then when I saw all three of them, they were all carrying hand ballistas and all summoned wolf packs. Had to book it the fuck out to Liurnia because they were blocking the way into Stormveil. Ballista bolts just firing at me constantly as wolves chased me through an area I couldn't even attack in. Once I got to an area I could attack in I cleared all their wolves out with one Flame of Frenzy and went outside.
They used so many tactics to bait me into doing certain things so they could get clean shots. They were coordinating EXTREMELY well, and I couldn't get any space to hard swap to my own ranged weapons. I eventually head to the graveyard to force them to fight some skeletons while I used a warmth stone and swapped to using guerilla tactics. One of them ran out of ammo and I made them panic by firing a bow barrage at them from stealth, which made them roll off a cliff. I whittled the other two down with poison and scarlet rot arrows while they kept trying to keep me pinned in the graveyard. Eventually, one gets low enough and doesn't have any flasks left, so I finish them off with my jawbone axe and there's just one left. Out of ammo. He swaps to a greatsword and he puts up a damn good fight. Genuinely a great PvP player. I won in the end with no flasks and half my HP left. I was so damn stressed out and my heart was beating faster than it had for ANY invasion in ANY Soulsborne game. But after it was all over and I could let my character do the patches squat I felt the greatest sense of joy ever. Those people were probably having the time of their damn lives with a gimmicky run and I just happened to stumble into it and got the funniest fucking invasion I've ever been a part of. They didn't run, they put up a good fight and made me deal with a situation I hadn't ever been close to dealing with before.
This is what invasions should be like. This is why I love invasions. It's not to ruin other people's day or out of spite, I love fighting other people's characters and gimmicks they come up with. My OC versus you and your friends' OCs. This game fucking rocks.
