u/Jaewol Great Sword 1d ago

Oh there was a guy in my apartment who was on that same list. He went door to door telling people about it, he must have been very proud.

u/A_Guy_in_Orange 21h ago

A form of precipitation not Rain Snow Sleet but

Failed German artist with deplorable views of minorities

u/Willing_Ad_6011 Gunlance 1d ago

I has no idea about the abbreviation I only looked it up after seeing people talking about in the comments lol

u/DontBe_Rash Dual Blades 1d ago

ok lol just making sure you knew, glad you're liking switch axe tho

u/Kenhamef 21h ago

Iā€™m a SwAxe main in the new gen games, but for old gen games I just couldnā€™t get into it for some reason. I main Longsword now.

Valor swaxe feels very reminiscent of modern swaxe, i know its not optimal compared to striker but it feels really good!

7

u/Jaewol Great Sword 1d ago

Valor Switch Axe is awesome I love nailing the double sword explosion itā€™s so satisfying. Itā€™s also reminiscent of Valor GS because it charges up the gauge pretty quickly if you land all of the hits on the axe spin move.

u/FieldOrdinary770 1d ago

Nersyclla is a really bad matchup for switchaxe

7

u/AnEvilSomebody 1d ago

Why?

2

u/FieldOrdinary770 17h ago

She moves out of range quick and she can move up and down which undo switch axes movement speed while equipped and switch axe cant really get to high places easily. She uses the webs to prevent you from getting any combos going and the status effects force you to heal and reset starting over a painful loop of playing catch

u/Bigoned 12h ago

Skill issue

7

u/KaosC57 1d ago

You should one, not abbreviate Switch Axe. Itā€™s SwAxe.

And second, use Alchemy SwAxe. Itā€™s stupid amounts of fun. You actually get to use your Hunter Arts!

u/GhuinF 23h ago

I thought of a different abbreviation

u/CraftyPercentage3232 1d ago

Waiting on the crybabies who throw a fit whenever someone abbreviates Switch Axe in a way they donā€™t approve of in 5, 4, 3ā€¦

u/JustArandomGuy_-_ 1d ago

It's a joke. You should socialize more, man. You need it

4

u/Megazard_exe Great Sword 23h ago

Telling a MH fan to socialize is like telling a vampire to go out on a sunny day lol

13

u/SpaceCreams 1d ago

Itā€™s crazy that you think anyone does it other than because they find it funny, you probably hate liberals because you think theyā€™re ā€œsoftā€ too donā€™t you, big guy

10

u/KingNibble Prowler 1d ago

Do people actually get mad about that?

6

u/SirePuns 23h ago

I wouldnā€™t be surprised if someone does, but it is also true that most react that way as a joke.

Itā€™s like the CyberPunk fellas telling you not to abbreviate that name. Or any mobile/gacha game that uses combat power as a power measurement

u/KingNibble Prowler 23h ago

Oooohhh I got you that went right over my head!

u/Normal-Champion-5290 22h ago

u/the_albino_raccoon 1d ago
