The bar on his head wasn't his health it was his patience

*Potemkin losing 70% of his health Now this is a fair fight

I like to imagine pot is like asleep and chipp is constantly throwing him around and pot just sleeps through it and he opens his eyes and says "ok you're starting to piss me off"

Considering the fact that he was AFO and the Chipp player immediately went in instead of waiting a bit in case the other player needed to plug in his controller or something he deserves it

Midway through my fight with a chaos player my controller's battery ran out, I was panicking first trying to find a cable to plug in. The chaos player had noticed and stopped attacking but I was still no where close to plugging in the cable, it took a while I'd say 1-2 mins and I kinda felt bad for letting the chaos player wait that long. Gave them the friendly crouching to signify my controller is back and they started blasting my ass as usual. Pretty wholesome moment

I don't play Strive, but I love how Chipp pulled every trick from the ninja book to achieve what Potemkin did with 2 hits.

Seeing chips jump arc made the potemkins neurons fire

Chipp: “Ah, subarashi! Free wins!” Also Chipp: “Huh... Why do I hear Bulgarian choir-chanting in the background?”

The fact he missed this 0:09, stood still for a moment, then started attacking again is hilarious.

*PERFECT* musical choice.

“You seem pretty confident for someone with full health”

I am no guilty gear player, but isn't jumping at Potemkin a death sentence?

Chipp: what are you doing? Potemkin: im making it fair

My favorite part is that this is probably how a canon Chipp/Potemkin fight would go down.

Low health Potemkin sitting on full meter. Chipp: Wow, a jump in would be like the worst idea. Certain death. And yet... THE LAST THING HE'S EXPECTING!!!

Potemkin will wait patiently for his combo, but only for 15 seconds. After that, he will begin his attack.

Literally a 1:1 of when you think a boss is bugged out on a wall

Pot after plugging in his controller: Is this too easy for you?

My mans wasn't AFK he was just hitting his pre game glue sniffing to unleash himself.

I dont even play the game and the image of pot walking is still terrifying

When your opponents sorely reminds you that your character has the HP of wet paper.

if you think about potemkin function like a boss. highest health in the game, unblockable moves, spammable attacks that leave you at disadvantage. it makes sense.

The meanacing walk is what sells the whole video lol

Forgive the Chipp, for they do not do this out of cowardice nor greed, merely they are following the ninja way. A fair fight is a mark of failure for a ninja.

Thought this was Vordt not Champion Gundyr. Mans just opened his eyes and kicked his ass.

To be fair, the Chipp player completely had it coming. The online fighting game rules of etiquette state that if you think your opponent is AFK you back up until they crouch or press a button to let you know they're online

You've been judged for your actions and punished for them

Potemkin: flies around as if he was weightless. Also Potemkin: *HEAVY HITS GO BRRRRRRRR!*

Vordt was a perfect choice.

Chipp: “he’s almost dead nows my cha-“ (Gets Gold bursted) Potemkin: “who the hell threw that piece of paper at me and what’s with the ticklish poking now? listen here you lil shit” Chipp: [screams in suki-suki] Potemkin: *looks at camera* “I’m bout to end this man’s career”

The ultimate bait

Chipp: developers he's afk right?? Developers: yes Chipp: so why do I hear boss music instead of my theme?? Developers: I'm sorry for you little one

Chipp: AYE AYE CHILL I WAS JOKING I WAS JUST JOKING

Chipp taking an age to wittle down Pot's health Pot: I'm sorry, am I boring you?

I had a Potemkin do this shit to me in a ranked match once. I realized after he didn’t block any of my attacks at all that the guy was probably AFK, so I backed off and did Giovanna’s taunt where she sits down and pets Rei, and this asshole IMMEDIATELY starts assaulting me! It was SUCH A dirty trick!

I got strive for my bday recently and I hopped into an online match after practicing a bit and I eventually find an opponent, they're playing Potemkin and I'm playing Testament. About a quarter of the way through the fight my controller disconnects and I think they noticed that, since they stopped attacking me until 10 seconds later when I gave them the signal that I had reconnected via furious crouching and strafing. They did the same, we continued, I got absolutely destroyed. They messaged me on steam and I told them my controller disconnected, and that is how I just happened to make friends with a Potemkin player.

This is what happens if you keep bugging that one person who just tries to keep to themselves and still remain friendly.

When the boss hits 2nd phase

0:31 His march has begun and no one will be able to stop him

He was not afk, he was giving the Chipp player a hesdstart

Full bar potemkin is the most terrifying video game character ever

Potemkin really is the perfect encapsulation of a Dark Souls boss, huh?

Potemkin standing straight is so menacing

The way pot just menacing walked like man was in jojos was perfect

There's comeback mechanics, and then there's paint-their-back mechanics.

Potemkin after losing most of his health bar: "tis but a scratch"

A painful reminder of all Chipp mains everywhere

My god... Look at the DMG! Even if the Potemkin player was really AFK he had nothing to fear XD

Pot: "I hope you're done. I just finished my breakfast"

The moment you jump while potem is in neutral. It doesn't matter whether they are afk or not. Your health bar is forfeit.

Never heard or played this game but still shit my pants after seeing this man's healthbar getting obliterates

0:26 the players name became visible here if you didn't realize. but this video was great, genuinely laughed out loud

The DS (you died) screen really gave me a panic attack every time it displayed, i relate to that video so much, as a DS player.. and as a chipp main as well 😢

Considering I’ve been playing through Dark Souls for the first time with a buddy who’s a veteran in the series and also a Pot main has made this one of my favorite videos😂

Man didn’t burst out of fear

this video is perfect with the intense music and the moment potemkin starts walking forward scary af lmao

0:26 the name is not censored

He just gave Chipp the chance to even out their HP

He is not afk... he is observing you...

This right here, this makes me happy

I mean he kinda deserves it for trying to get a free win, but that damage I feel it in my soul lol

More Potemkins should be like this, he let the Chipp get enough hits in so it could be a fair fight.

when the training dummy starts criticizing your abilities

Don't look at Chipp's health! DON'T LOOK AT IT!!

Chipp after missing his kick 0:09 was like: "Wait, I missed and I didn't get bustered?! Let's go!"

2 hit did 80% that is some SNK Boss Syndrome levels of damage

Imagine people let you chip 70% health and you still can't win

You merely accepted the damage, I was born in it, molded by it. -Angry nice big ass machine

That's really how it felt when Vordt went sicko mode though.

I love the thumbnail

The hpb skip shouldn't be allowed, but damn the sight of pot just nuking u is quite pleasant

Me: *Doesn't play or know about this game, doesn't know who Potemkin is* Also me after clicking on this video in my recommendations at 3am: "Damn, Potemkin go ham"

Potemkin player just went to the kitchen to grab a glue stick for a snack but felt the Chipp jump

bro knew he had enough time to graduate, get a masters degree, meet the love of his life, have a family of 4 in a 3 million dollar house. and be able to come back and whoop your ass 😭

Bro took all the time he needed for that long division ☠️☠️☠️

If he's gonna swing on someone who is clearly not there he could have at least done some proper combos.

he had that coming

Lmao I got an ad for a funeral service before this

chip: gets close pot: "so you have chosen... death"

This is exactly how it feels when you encounter Haval in Dark Souls for the first time. Get bonked once and it's game over 😂

when your game lags and then your internet kicks in and everything happens all at once.

Vordt theme is PERFECT coz they both are THICC

bro lured you in with a sense of over confidence in killing an afk.

Man I love this vid, shit like this got me into strive

If you play Chipp, you have to be ready to accept everyone can 100-0 you, its why I have inner peace despite being at like floor 4 xD

He really decided to role play as a Regigigas

The thumbnail for this video restored my humanity

You can SEE the hesitation and surprise once he noticed he made a mistake

As we all know, when boss hp below a certain level it will make him dangerous.

"Now it's a fair fight"

He gave a head start

That bait was so good.

This is every fighting game boss ever

I’m not even a guilty gear player I’m a smash player but my dedede brain cells combined with the voices in my head tell me this character needs to be my main now

serves you right for not waiting to see if it was a controller disconnect

The millia player in me was expecting him to get grabbed out the air

"now, he will try"

That Potemkin wasn't afk... he was analyzing, watching, observing for the perfect chance to strike.

“Are you finished?”

bro said "My turn"
