STG Weekly #18 - Battle Garegga

Post by Frenetic »

Hi guys,

The STG Weekly will be taking a break tomorrow, but will resume next week Saturday April 27 at 12 noon Central Standard Time. We will be focusing on Battle Garegga.

We're going to be featuring Eaglet's replay, but are fielding other expert commentators for the episode. Please PM either me or Aquas with your Skype ID.

We are working towards making this one of the most informative episodes!

Cheers,
F

I would have liked to have helped with this, but I'm at Stunfest this weekend. Good luck, hopefully whoever you guys get will be able to explain the complexities and subtleties of the game's system.

Eaglet was an outstanding commentator, and Medal (while annoying) had some valuable input as well.
Certainly learned a few things which might help my Garegga game if I ever seriously return to it.

Thanks man!
My main purpose with the commentary was to get rid of some of the misconceptions that have plagued Garegga's reputation on the internet and give some tips and lessons learned to future score board competitors. :)

edit: Hope my voice was audible enough. Had done some high intensity interval training before i commented so my airways were a lot more strained than they usually are...

5/5 commentary, 5/5 gameplay and 5/5 overall! Really awesome episode and quite possibly one of my favorite STG Weekly episodes so far :) This episode really got me pumped to get back into Garegga!

Episode is up. The alternative viewing method is to watch the archive or highlight that I make on the twitch page. You need to find the "more videos" button. http://www.twitch.tv/stgweekly/videos

Eaglet you did a great job! I'm pleased with the episode.

Enjoy!

I've only had time to watch up until the 1st boss of KAMUI's replay yet, but so far, the best episode for me. 8)

Thanks for another great episode, all! As someone who's just starting to learn the game, I learned a lot.

My only complaint about the episode is the obvious one.

Oh god this episode, I honestly couldn't stop laughing during the ending. "What do you mean you're not mexican?"


Pretty damn informative too.
