  • It was announced that Algol and Edge Master will be back in SC5.

  • Guess what,Chuck Norris just replaced Algol and now he is the king

  • Algol can actually seriously whoop some shit he is just a FUCKING HARD character to learn...

  • This Algol sucks for real. No combos at all.

  • The Apprentice's lightsaber style is an actual style in Star Wars. It's called "I Want to Bisect Myself Style".

  • HD my ass

  • only thing i hate about this game is the apprentice because he's can be so cheap and deadly its frustrating -.-

  • Algol was one of my first characters to unlock xD

  • I wish algols fighting style could be available...itd be the most badass thing ever.

  • Everyone asks why the lightsabers in this game don't cut anything. The answer is simple. Yoda, the Apprentice, and Darth Vader lost their lightsabers and they got new ones on loan from Xemnas, which we all know that Xemnas sabers can't cut anything.

  • the way that apprentice holds his lightsabre is just wrong...

  • @l0rdm3ph1st0 haha yeah xD

    Why would you hold ur weapon like that in the first place? 0_o

  • @l0rdm3ph1st0 It's actually a lightsaber fighting style. I really could go complete star wars nerd on you... but that would be kinda stupid considering the context. All I'll say is that it's pretty legit for the star wars universe... but in comparison to the fighters in Soul Calibur, you're right, it does look kind of stupid.

  • Why does no one use the 3A-A, 2A+B, 623A-B-K combo with algol?

  • My beef with sword fighting games

    is that both swords never come in contact with each other

    doesnt make for actual sword fighting at all

    Its basically hack and slash lol

  • voll der lahme kampf -.-

    habe schon bessere gesehn-.--.-.-.-

  • i hope I play these guys on=line at some point... easy wins.

  • whoever was playing algol lloked pretty new at it...

  • is algol the boss from soul calibur new here!

  • this video is not in HD quality

  • I wish they include Dante from Devil May Cry in the next soul series. I would like to see his gunslinging and sword combos in mid-air.

  • Its hard to get the hang of playing Algol, anybody that plays a lot of fighting games might know what i mean when i say, Algol feels slow but still fast his movement isn't to quick but his attacks are short and powerful... so basically what im trying to say is... once you master Algol you become like a god, he is a bit overpowered in ways...

  • @jayparrish1 Lol I'm actually one of the people to know everything there is to know about algol, and statistically hes underpowered. I fight edge masters every day with him and try to get to the point where defeating them are easy. Unfortunately, even though im experienced with him, hes my one and only. I've tried going online but my connection often screws me over lol. I plan on making a stradegy video in a couple of days.

  • ok the voice acting for the apprentice is terrible! seriously his death cry makes him sound like kermit the frog.

  • Comment removed

  • i was wondering how to do that sword thing at 0:29 on the ps3. I would appreciate it if someone told me

  • in reality it wouldnt be mutch of a contest the apprentice could either force choke Algol or slice him down with his lightsaber.

  • @jurassicraptor111 maybe, but who can tell how powerful those big, scary, purple bubbles wuld b in real life? O_O lol jk

  • I can own him, i KNOW how to use algol

  • Look, any character can be fast if you know how to use him/her... it's not luck either if you know what attack you're doing

  • can u unlock apprentice?

  • yes... defeat arcade mode with Darth Vader to unlock the apprentice.ps3 only i beleive.

  • @jurassicraptor111 nope Apprentice i on both, the 360 gets Yoda.

  • o i love to play with algol..

    his combos can be so powerful and i like his "arm cannon" attack:)

  • 3 words swagger than swag

  • Soul Calibur its Great i have it on Ps3. !!! : P

  • bua hhhahaha noobss

  • Wait...so, weapons materialize from is hands? that is AWESOME

    Whoever designed the new characters should get a medal

  • ye looks like he just pushes any buttons

  • im sorry for sounding like a dousche but the algol player is complete shit

  • u know the problem with apprentices is that he got only one good lower attack

  • wow this algol sucks a good way 2 play as em is 2 set up alot of bubbles and close in that way there locked down and be at your mercy the only thing that hinders algol is his slow side step

  • thats no way a good algol plays i am a algol player and when i dont use bubbles is wen i am best

  • think about it algols pretty slow when it comes 2 mobility thats why he has the bubbles and the flips to close the gap and go wild algols really powerful but its his mobility that hinders him if you dont close the gap then either your getting lucky or your not good at all

  • wow dude if you think hes slow then play my algol or the one on tower of lost souls. then after that you'll see that hes not all that slow . and you probably suck more than this algol in the vid .

  • ugh im not gonna start fighting with a lil kid like you v_v algol is slow when it comes to side stepping and walking his attacks r fast and good but compared to other charecters like voldo,hilde,taki,knightmare,st­arkiller hes slower when it comes to movement

  • must have been a good apprentice because this character match up actually favors Algol.

  • Two questions.

    1. What does Algol say during his intro before he says "It is my existence."?

    2. What is The Apprentice saying during his win pose?

  • 1. Algol says, "Fighting is my all. It is my existence!".

    And 2. The Apprentice says, "I don't care about your existence.".

  • he says idc about your situation.

  • Comment removed

  • mitsurugi is the hardest character to master

    add me on PSN

    THE_RICE_MAN

  • This algol guy sucks. I only practice with him for two days and i'll own this guy.

    (on PS3)

  • i really don't like the sound of this game but the rest is awsome

  • How do you get The Apprencite?

  • problem with SC4 is that it's well balanced, the fighters i mean. if you look at the top ranking you'll only see ivy, taki and astaroth. and all the noobs use either kilik or cervantes. fought tons of those. darth vader's practically useless since he's way too slow and still doesn't make much of an impact.really too bad

  • ur wrong... darth vader is good in this game if u know how to use him... it just comes with practice and i know how to guard impact with him dozens of times.

  • well i for one, never ever got beaten by someone using darth vader, not even close. i wish u luck online

  • Shows how little you know about Soul Calibur. You can beat any character with any other character. It's about skill, not the character you're using, nooblet. Noobs use Kilik cuz he's easy to pick up and get the feel for the game. He's much harder to truly master, like any of the characters.

  • how little i know? i'm level 57 in standard ranking, i KNOW what i'm talking about. for instance, kilik has an advantage over maxi, due to range. i have an advantage over taki with vader's moves. he's the only char with which i can beat a skilled taki user. but i won't have to try beating a well skilled maxi player with vader because he's just not fast enough, i wouldn't be able squeeze in an attack if maxi is played correctly.

  • Actually, you don't know what you're talking about. I was lvl 140, if that makes any difference, and it only seems that "Ivy, Taki, and Astaroth" are the top players because they spam things that are more difficult to block. Don't actually talk about who has an advantage over who until you study the actual frame data of the moves.

    Also, if you want to use level, add in the win %.. I've played lvl 200+ people who weren't that good. They just know more lag tactics.

  • actually it really doesnt matter what level you are at all, thats just for boasting. now you are kind of right with the spamming players because there is alot of them. but still the people that are skilled know the combos and moves, and utilize them to their full potential. i was a level 12 and i took down a level 178 easily during a awful lag match. its all about knowing the characters moves, and putting your timing, and judgment into a match precisely. vadar is the most balanced of the jedi's

  • to the people fucking arguing in this chain.

    Does it really matter?

    Yes some characters have advantages over others that makes Core right

    But it doesnt matter wiht advantages if your skilled enough with a character then you can defeat someone even with the disadvantages

    that makes hell right

    BUT TO GET THERE IN THE FIRST FUCKING PLACE THORNE IS RIGHT it takes practice and skills to master a character some longer then others

    YOUR ALL RIGHT NOW SHUT UP

  • well now your one of the people arguing in the chain. and no it doesnt matter, i also wouldnt consider this an argument just trying to get some people to understand a point of view thats all. was there any harm done by that? i think not.lol

  • meh i really dun wanna argue in it i just wnat the arguement to end because this poor guy is getting his acc spammed by the argumental chain if u look at it in a way they are all right and they are all wrong once the realize that its all good most of it looked like they we''re trying to brag. lol

  • no you shut up

  • Ya.. lets say, someone uses Raphael, not much of brute is he, pretty damn fast tho, if u were to use Night Terror against him, Raphael's speed wouldnt really help him, and his ability to easily ring out, wouldnt be effectice because night terror cant be ringed out, but if u combine ur skill with Raphael's speed, and truly master his moves, all i have to say is that Raphael would be one hardass opponent to defeat, but overall Night Terror is probably much better than Raphael

  • Hard to argue with that.

  • the algol sucked in this vid

  • You fu--kin faggots!!! learn how too play!! you disgust your father!! both of you look like CPU'S..better get a life you retard!

  • i agree to an extent. its really annoying when theres people out there who make us look bad

  • was it cpu vs cpu?

  • Its a game.

  • MKvs DC when it comes to "First day and its awesome", SC4 for length. You can beat MKvsDC in like a day and you can only unlock two people, who suck anyway.

  • Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

    OR

    Soul Calibur 4

    ?

  • i have both and u should prob get soul calibur 4, i dont really like mk vs dc as much

  • I piked Soul Calibur IV without exitation....

  • i was thinking that same thing but then i played them both and i,without a doubt,choose soul calibur,i now own it and have every character and have mastered the entire game in about 3 days,go soul calibur man,dc universe has hardly any characters and the finishers for the mortal combat characters are lame,their is no blood at all.soul calibur 4 has awesome finishers,sweet move,a little nakedness on chicks(mainly a girl names ivy)and you get to make your own character!

  • Ok, thanks for the responses ;)

    got 3 reactions and 3/3 say Soul Calibur 4

  • I've got both, definitely go with Soul Calibur. MK v DC is more like a filler game between mortal kombats imo.

  • SC4

  • How the hell do you unlock the apprientice?I know your supposed to beat in arcade with Vader but Vader sucks and I suck at this game!And theres no way to make it easy!So how in the hell do you beat him?

  • Just keep your distance and try not to attack before he does. Try to get him when he comes toward you. You might think this advice sounds stupid, but it helped a little in my case.

    Look I know how you feel. I lost to him like 8 times, but finally managed to come though. Just practice and keep trying man.

  • I have yet to see anyone that's actually good post a video. And that includes this one.

  • no one will stand in my way stand down and join me

  • although i like algol and everthing i would prefer lu bu can you imagine seeing his huge halberd and long hair kicking the tar outa everyone?!

  • this was a really gimp display i would destroy anyone with algol hes pretty much the equalvalent of vader the apprentice and yodas strength combined.the apprentice sucks in this game plain and simple.

  • depends on your skills with each character. the apprentice rules!

  • trust me the only person im absolutely terrible with is yoda i dont know any of his moves.the person i hate the most nightmare tira is hot btw.cell for president.

  • i totally understand and agree! its so painful to play with him. thats why it took so long to unlock the apprentice, 'cause i gave up on yoda!

  • man i cant wait to download darth vader!

  • good game, but not anything compared to the force unleashed amazing game tho.

  • Sounds like Lu Bu. Cool.

  • 0:10 The Hero king: Fighting is my it is my existence

    0:14 The Smartass: I DONT CARE ABOUT YOUR SITUATION. (BEST LINE EVER)

  • @dogfight001That's exactly what I was thinkin about what he said he was like I DONT CARE wow rude lol

  • pretty bad Algol player

  • I hate Soul Calibur 4. Even three was better. Two was the best.

  • 3 kinda sucked

  • why do you hate it?

  • Two Sith and a Jedi ruined the whole game permanently. And don't get me wrong I like Star Wars, I like Soul Calibur. I just don't think they should have ever been put together.

  • i like agolz stage SUPER EPIC datz where i do all my hardcore battles!!!

  • you seriously need to learn algols moves his awsum

  • how?

  • I agree with Cheezypoofizzles. Seriously man! How?!!!

  • in the beginning algol got owned

  • Does Xbox 360 and Ps3 have differen characters or the same.

  • Xbox got Yoda,

    PS3 got Darth vader

    Both got apprentice

  • Both can download DV and Yoda.Yay!

  • Dude you people gotta learn to play the apprentice. USE FORCE GRAB FOR ONCCE! DaMN! It's like one of his most useful moves!!!

  • i still find it wierd that Agol has like plasma busters as his set of moves...this is a cool battle and all dude, but the problem is that u guys kinda delay wit ur moves, when i play as the apprentice, i dont give the other player the chance to attack...but then again i suck with darth vader and mostly practise everyday with the apprentice everytime. ah well, cheers XD

  • THiS iS PRETTY G00D. ii CANT WAiT T0 GET THiS GAME. BY THE WAY ARE THE LiZARDS H0lDiN F0RKS?ii JUST N0TiCE iT. l0l

  • The Apprentice rox

  • now not to offencing enyone but i just need to know one thing... im thinking of switching soul calibur with my friend for battlefield bad company cuz i didnt found sc4 any good... but i just played one night so i dont know if its a stupid idea... is bf bc worth swiching with soul calibur ??

  • nah keep soul calibur trust me when u get into it youll notice how good it is!

    i was thinking to trade in soul calibur but then i played it once before i was gonna give it in and i started 2 get into it.

    plus battle field BC is cheap now u can buy it for low low price. Hope That Helped:D

  • ya sure man... thx. i belive il keep it then :) and il just wait with trading it.

  • Algol is better than The Apprentice, if you know when to guard. This noob as Algol has no idea what he's doing.

  • Meh, both players are pretty awful.

  • I don't play with The Apprentice, so I don't know what's good or bad by his standards. I play a lot with Algol, so I can safely say that Algol sucks in this. The Apprentice keeps sidestepping and he doesn't even punish.

  • Yeah. Like I said, both players are pretty bad. They don't do universal things that are basic by anyone's standards, but like you said. Starkiller doesn't punish on stepped attacks. Algol uses almost none of his pressure tools. Just to name a few.

  • Algol is officialy said that is the strongest character in all SC universe and defenetly not cheap like Inferno or Night Terror.

  • How was Inferno cheap?

  • first Inferno doesen't even let you move second he copies all the other characters moves wich is defenetly old for a boss and third it has unique moves that make the game really hard to beat.

  • ?? When did he not let you move? And Soul Master did the same thing. Nothing about any of that screams cheap.

  • no no no. . . Abyss was by for the cheapest. .. Algol and Inferno are not even a half of the pain Abyss was. . . just play it on Ultra or Extreme hard. . . Abyss will make u cuss at ur t.v. for awhile. . :|

  • How is Inferno cheap? He's mostly just a copy of another character.

    And I dont know how he's stronger than Night Terror. He's kinda broken.

  • man i can whoop anybodies ass with algol!

    im unstoppable!

  • algol is a piece of shit.

  • Ya.I was never good with Abyss in Soul Calibur 3,so all I did was spamming and playing around with his oh-wow-powers...

    He is best(and Algol as well) for for-fun-matches,but if the CPU gets Abyss or Algol(depending on a game)they are so FUCKING BEASTS WITH THEM!!!

  • when you create characters can you give them lightsabers?

  • no, I think that's past the borderline of an already copyright infringement game.

  • How is it copyright infringement? They were allowed to use the characters. Otherwise, that game wouldnt have come out and Namco and everyone involved with the game wouldve gotten sued for everything they have.

  • How come they dont call him by his real name?

    ITS GALEM MALEK, NOT THE APRENTICE

  • Soul Calibur IV came out before Force Unleashed. They didn't want to give away his name.

  • I know! Like some grabs too. Hilde stabs a freakin spear through her opponet! Tell me if u got stabed through ur chest with a spear u wouldn't get up and attack again!

  • you may discover some new algol combo in my video

  • That was predictable The Apprentice is practically the best charcter unless you can perfect Algol. MAN I wish they had theater mode so i can watch these two fight on edge master difficulty.

  • not to insult algol but that fighting stance makes him look like a tool. I like seigfried, voldo, kilik, and taki.

  • i disagree Algol is much better than necrid, his character and voice is more similar to LuBu from dynasty warriors. I agree with biohazard the guy playing algol should've at least done one of the combos as shown in videos u see on youtube.

    Good luck 2 all those playing online

  • algol fights like necrid of soul calibur 2 well i think so

  • does algol have all the weapons or something??

  • these new characters fight alot like the older ones. i cant pinpoint exactly who, but their basic moves look exactly the same as others.

  • ALgol is darn hard if you dont know his moves But if you do you can punish him easily.

  • can any of these players on here block? hhaa

  • Blocking is slightly riskier then before, but yeah, they could have blocked a bit more then they did.

  • the guy playing Algol sucks. when I have to fight a real algol fighter online, the battle gets really annoying, cause algol has those unpredicteble combos.

  • Naaa Voldo has unpredectable combos

  • fatmans right, if i would be the one using algol i wouldave won believe me. hes the best when you know his moves

  • Apprentice is best wen u know his moves 2...pretty much same w/ evry 1 i use ivy and voldo tho

  • algol is like the hardest character to control in this game

  • Is the Apprentice only on ps3 version ?

  • both versions

  • No you have to unlock him by beating Yoda's OR Darth Vader's story mode in both versions. So, no he is just a hidden character.

  • the person playing algol sucks.hes a beast when u no how to use him

  • Algol is a huge pimp.

  • lol lizardmen in astaroth's stage.

  • are those lizardmen with fork and knives looking like theyre ready to eat in the backround?

  • Wow Worst Angol ever..

    No joke, the apprentice is okay guess for off-line >->

    I'd Take Aragoth to own you rofl Or better yet Rock. D:

  • Astaroth <.<?

  • thats the worst Algol ive ever seen! Hit me up on playstation network for a real fight! -StuntmanJames

  • WOW there going all out

  • LoL true true.......

  • Algol: Fighting is my all, it is my existence

    Apprentice: I don't care about your situation

    nice dialogue

  • You know, in SC2s Weapon Master Mode, there was an area called Algol xD

  • yall suck

  • Get on LIVE with me dude I will murder you if you play like that man.

  • Dude calm down.

  • ok let me teach u sumthin wen u say calm down its lik a pussy on crack the awesome way to say to someon to calm down is calm ur nipples

    wen u say calm ur nipples everyone stops

  • algol looks cool...but apprentice looks COOLER!!!! he rocks!!!

  • MORE GUARDING, noobs.

  • dude yoda cant even be grab so thats why ppl like him

  • dude no offense but you really suck

  • learn how to use algol correctly

  • HAHA Abyss,"Let the power of hellfire sink into your soul" the most badass quote ever

  • what a bad algol player

  • i would own any starwars c haracter

  • ok heres some info on algol he was a great king cuz of his great fightin skills the reason why he has soul edge is cuz it was a normal blade like anyother but it killed so much that it grew evil and started 2 gain power and corrupt then it tryed 2 take over algol but he was able 2 control it to his will one day his jeolous son took souledge and was controled by it so algol had no choice but 2 kill em then with a couple of shards that he purified soul calibur was born

  • who ever is playin wit my dude algol needs to go back to training mode
