In the last game, one-hit KOs may have made for quick matches, but it also meant there was basically no room for error. It’s a very welcome change, as it makes every game feel like a proper match since everyone has more leeway for mistakes and comebacks.
Any hit from the ball just takes a bit off your health otherwise. In Blaze, those are only possible when the ball is moving at triple-digit speeds. In the original Lethal League, one-hit knock-outs were the name of the game. One new mechanic in Blaze is the addition of health bars. They’re easy to use and can regularly turn the match in your favor, but never by feeling unfair or overpowered. Candyman makes the ball pass through walls, Toxic throws down graffiti that redirects the ball when it comes into contact with them, and so on. Jet creates a bubble around the ball that protects it from being hit and gives it a speed boost once popped. Latch can catch the ball and hold onto it briefly, for example, allowing him to release it anywhere he wants. The game’s 11 characters also all have their own special skills. And blunting allows you to essentially reset the ball’s velocity temporarily, perfect for redirecting the ball’s trajectory. Throwing lets you counter parries and also serves as a good mix-up tool since it always throws the ball at high-speed regardless of what its current speed is. Parries let you keep the ball in your control if your opponent tries to hijack it right it as releases, thereby providing a brief period of invincibility where they can’t hit it. With each hit, the ball’s velocity increases, thus making it bounce around the arena faster and faster until it’s basically nigh impossible to keep up with, at which point one touch is all it takes to knock out an opponent.ĭefensive options come in the form of parries, throws, and blunting the ball. Whoever hits the ball is safe from it as long as it remains under their control. You can’t hit each other directly - you can only hit the ball and try to direct it toward your opponent.
Lethal League sees up to four players attempting to knock each other out of the arena by hitting a ball that bouncing around at increasingly high speeds.
#Lethal league blaze hi Pc#
That game already felt pretty close to perfect, but with it’s sequel, Lethal League Blaze, which was recently released on console after launching on PC last year, developer Team Reptile takes everything that it’s predecessor did so well and makes it even better. Lethal League was one of those games that immediately clicked with me because of how easy it was to learn. Mainly because they aren’t terribly complex and don’t have high execution barriers due to combo systems, making them easier for me to pick up and learn and stick with. When it comes to fighting games, I usually find myself drawn toward the more non-traditional sort (unless we’re talking about UNIST, anyway).
