Mega Man 2 - Air Man Perfect Run

[Kingpin0072001uk]

You sound british..... But you're not though right? Like the accent though.

[EndlessNytemare]

we used to call those gremlins ''MOI MOI GUYS'' cause there mouths look like they are saying moi moi

[TitletownTeam]

are you british?

[tsukinoakuma]

I liked エアーマンが倒せない better.

[forteandblues]

I used to be able to defeat airman, then I took an arrow to the knee

[ShadowPirateX]

Damnit! Now i want to hear AirMan Ga Taosenai again. will i ever stop listening to it?

[hikarinoryu]

You might want to delete the link from your description, the video was taken down due to Toei complaining about it or something. At the very least, mention it.

[Predatoroid]

You, you, you defeated airman??? damn

[roronoa1243]

I forgot this in my comment but... Woodman mo taosenai.

[roronoa1243]

If you stand on the redcreature things on the plat forms after the first fan fiend, the pippi will drop its egg into the abyss. SWEET BIRDY REVENGE!!!

[levelmaster2]

Stupid copyrights since the person is the one singing the song.

[gamecomedy64]

What i really hated about airman was he would put in those tornados that had a VERY slim and tight passageway to actually dodge it. Is there a way to make it so he will never do that or is the fight purely based on if your lucky or not?

[ClassicGamesFTW]

I always get sad hearing Stickerbrush Symphony, especially the original ); Just had to go and play it, huh? Well great run none the less. Same goes with the previous perfect runs~

[JLohman711]

Just a heads up, in case you have trouble with this video for using the song:

The video of "I can't defeat Air Man" has been pulled and the user suspended due to copyright complaints

[legorulez49]

roahm at 2:20 that fan feind was supposed to be there, do to a glitch it dissapears almost every time, not for me anyways. i prefer the japanese version of airman will not die

[Kisoda9]

u defeated air man and u didnt even wake up O.o....

[lazerlinestudio]

ok... HOW IN WORLD DO U Go TrU tHE TORNaDos

[Redmage1987]

Hmm. I would actually say Quick Man's Stage is easier, assuming that you know how to get past the Force Beams. There aren't many enemies to deal with. You can trick the Returning Sniper Joes into only jumping and take them out no problem. The main problem in that stage is Quick Man himself. Good Job on Air Man.

-Old School Video Game King-

[Brawlkings93]

Wats the music at the end? I recognise it from somewhere.... Brawl?

[MasterofLaziness]

Battle Network 2 made Airman look like an idiot. Good job, but the song should be "I Can't Beat Quickman".

[Remeday]

crazyness! I didn't even know it was possible to beat him with no hits!

[Eenelover238]

BUGGA!

[domefort]

the bloopers were so funny xD - at first i thought "wow that was surprisingly easy"

[Sybawave]

Airman's tornado patterns have to do with where you are when he shoots the next set out or something like that.

I just figured out that you need to run towards him for the first 2 sets, just as the second set is disappearing, jump into the air and one of the easier to dodge patterns will come up. Dodge it and then just shoot him as he hops over to your side. Depending on your accuracy, you can kill him before he gets there or while he's there facing away from you.

[chud456]

Easiest fucking level...it would be hard not to get hit though

[Chickenator006]

5:20 theres a trick to get around such a situation. You can stand at the edge of the Airtiki without getting hit from the spikes, but that edge is just ridiculously small.

[migeme10]

You can defeat air man...

[mopbrothers]

I didnt think it was possible to beat Air Man without getting hit.

[pntztz]

BUGGER!

[MastermewtwoALPHA]

I didn't exactly get the "aim for the horns" joke. I know it had something to do with the Pokemon anime with what you said afterwards, but unfortunately my knowledge of that anime is spotty at best.

[RoahmMythril]

One of the most ridiculous moments of the anime involved Ash's Pikachu fighting a Rhydon. Ash ordered Pikachu to "aim for the horn" with his electric attacks. Given Pokemon type immunities, being a Ground type, Rhydon would be totally immune to it no matter what, but for the sake of the show, it worked.

[MastermewtwoALPHA]

@RoahmMythril Oh, wow. XD That is totally messed up. For some reason, it reminds me of a certain...odd experience I had while playing Pokemon Pearl the other day.

[RoahmMythril]

Oh yes?

[MastermewtwoALPHA]

@RoahmMythril Yeah. I was trying to catch Mesprit in Pearl and almost caught it in a Premiere Ball, but it got out right after the third shake. Of course, it wasn't so much what happened as to WHERE it happened, and my reaction. I was all "Grr, BUGGER!" The funniest thing: I was in the car with my family.

...Yeah, not funny, I know.

[Incathelizard]

@MastermewtwoALPHA

like can you imagine if you could tell your pokemon where to aim, you would have medichams sky uppercutting other croches

[Greener221]

@RoahmMythril And then there was the first gym battle against Brock with similar bullshit...

[KurtKokaine1]

There's an odd glitch regarding that disappearing Fan Fiend in your vid. I've notieced he seems to disappear alot in my runs of this game too. More often than not actually. Does anyone else notice this in their Mega Man 2 runs?

[beedolphin1]

@KurtKokaine1 I think it's a NES glitch. I mean I did notice it with the NES yet it's not in the Gamecube version. Thanks for your comment for earlier. Hope you have a nice day and hope this helps with your question

[beedolphin1]

the enemy that just vanished my have been scrolled off, either way, it helped you out.

Airman really didn't take that many hits, did he?

[RoahmMythril]

True, he isn't that durable, but getting those hits in without getting hit yourself, that's the tricky bit.

[KurtKokaine1]

@beedolphin1 no, he wasn't scrolled off. It happens with that one particular enemy all the time. I'm not sure what causes this glitch.

[neofrodo]

Air Man is harder for me than Quick Man. I hate those tornadoes. -_-

[ADOLFO6500]

Your:8/10

Mine:8/10

[linebro]

roahm...

 there is an easier way to perfect run airman boss battle ill show you in a response

[axlar1]

you know airman is harder in the japenese version. if there was ANY game you should have played in the japenese version, this is the one.

[RoahmMythril]

How was he harder?

[axlar1]

@RoahmMythril just more durable.

[cooljobsrule]

@RoahmMythril He wasn't... it's a rumour.

[GigaHands]

@cooljobsrule He was... the tornadoes move faster.

[cooljobsrule]

@GigaHands all a myth, there is zero difference

[GigaHands]

@cooljobsrule watch?v=2XU_2pV88Xk

Seemingly irrefutable proof that, yes, the tornadoes move faster.

[cooljobsrule]

@GigaHands the difference is negligible

[GigaHands]

@cooljobsrule But it's still there.

[cooljobsrule]

@GigaHands It doesn't make him harder...

[RoahmMythril]

Without seeing a side-by-side comparison, they look pretty much the same to me.

[GigaHands]

@RoahmMythril Do you have a stopwatch or something? If you have the means (and inclination of course) of timing them, I'm pretty sure the jap 'nadoes are slightly faster, unless my eyes are playing tricks on me.

[RoahmMythril]

I don't actually have a stopwatch, but to me, it just looks like the Japanese video was a bit lower quality, that is to say, less frames, a little jumpier in the animation. Not the game itself, just the recording of it.

[jwild611]

"BIIIIRRRRDS!!"

-RoahmMythril

[pieceofcakegaming]

i thought that song would be here

[MrNiconiconico]

2:20

Mega Man:?!?!?! WTF?!

[Shyster404]

2:18

megaman 2 is just full of those moments, huh?

[Toccaif331]

lighting lord! i see them as giant flying apes with bananas maybe its just me

[FabricaRhino]

Can you list the MM games in the main series from cheapest to fairest in difficulty?

MM&B included.

[RoahmMythril]

I really don't know. Really, the only games that really strike me as having much cheapness about them are 2 and IV. 2, it's mainly Air Man's shots, a particularly annoying area of Crash Man's stage involving Pipis, and of course the spasticness of Quick Man. With IV, it's the fact that, unlike the NES version, Bright Man does NOT have any secret with his Flash Stopper, and is indeed random in his use of it.

[MrNiconiconico]

@RoahmMythril Your Right About Wily Showing Up

[HyperSlug64]

FanFiend doesn't just want to be AirMan, he also wants to be MagicMan!

(Well I thought it was funny.)

[FatherOfGray]

YOU GOT:  REALLY LUCKY!

Curses to Air Man and 2 stupid undodgeable patterns! Here's a tip though. If you jump through the boss gate, it GUARANTEES that the first pattern of tornadoes that Air Man throws out will be avoidable. It works, try it! ^_^

[RoahmMythril]

Hmm, that's interesting, I didn't know about that.

[bubufubu]

All of his patterns are dodgeable.

[FatherOfGray]

@bubufubu

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA No, they're not. Not buster only anyways. With the items it is possible to get over them though.

In the case of 6:02, it is possible to VERY CAREFULLY jump over the first tornado without hitting the second, but by this time, the tornadoes will start moving and the wind will push you against the wall. Trying to jump over the 4th tornado from the left will get you a tornado in the face. At 6:17, the 2nd tornado cant be jumped without hitting the 4th.

[bubufubu]

/watch?v=6lGYwEdshvE

[boulayg1]

weird... I was playing along with you and I did a non-intentional perfect run of the stage... you're making me lucky XD

[RoahmMythril]

Haha, well, glad it helped then ;)

[ironballistics]

Great series so far RoahmMythril! I've watched all of the last ones and I plan to watch the later ones! I wonder if you've done the megaman x games on the SNES? I've played those so many times I think I have a shot of doing one of these no-hit buster only runs...also have you seen the glitch when you use item number one in airmans room?

[RoahmMythril]

I've heard of this glitch room, but I've never actually seen it. As for the X series, I've played X1 - 5 on my own when they originally came out, but admittedly, I'm just not a fan of the X series.

[ironballistics]

@RoahmMythril There are videos of it here on youtube...I first saw it in the game glitches episode of "The Angry Video Game Nerd"...aww, its to bad you didn't like the X series...well, we always have the original nes games! Have you heard of the rock band called "The Megas"? They did some songs using the music of Megaman 2...Check em out! (Oh and PS: Thanks for replying!)

[RoahmMythril]

Indeed yes, I've heard some music from the Megas.

[benjamin656564]

bah there's a song that they cant defeat airman and woodman.... try asking him/her to do perfect runs?

[legionofpie]

If I remember correctly, you can shoot his tornadoes to slow them down, making them much easier to dodge.

[linebro]

5:08 BIRDS ON STEROIDS

is that what you said ????

[RoahmMythril]

It does kind of run together, but what I was saying before I was hit with the egg was "Bird zone starts here."

[Voyd211]

Thunder Chariots. They're like Foot Holders, but less evil!

[ShadowAFAGGOT]

weird little glitch if he is last pipis show ithink the same is for clashman and woodman

[RoahmMythril]

The Pipis actually are a code. You can use it any time on any Robot Master. I believe it's that you hold.... it's either A or B when you select the Robot Master, just hold it down.

[levelmaster2]

5:05, did you just say your real life name?

[RoahmMythril]

No, I said "Be patient, will ya?" I'd never give my "real" name in videos because I hate my real life name and don't want anyone to know it for personal reasons.

[levelmaster2]

@RoahmMythril

It just sounded like you said "Be patient, William" so I thought you were telling yourself to be patient.

And surely your name can't be as bad as this one person I graduated with, Tekilla Sunrise (no joke either). Well, my mistake then.

[RoahmMythril]

It's not a "joke" type name like that, my problem is my father lied to me about who I was named after, and long, long after my father's death, I found out my namesake had comitted suicide for a very stupid reason, and I refuse to be named in "honor" of that. Thus to all my friends, I am simply Roahm ;)

[levelmaster2]

@RoahmMythril

I understand. Sorry about the "joke" name, my bad. I had no intention of bringing up bad memories.

[RoahmMythril]

Quite alright, just letting you know my reasoning ;)

[vortigaunt25]

I can't remember where I first saw it, but if you jump in just the right spot, you can hit the edge of the Gremlin and hop over the horn without worrying about the timing.

[RoahmMythril]

Indeed, I've seen that in a few videos, I know Pink managed it in her MM2 vids. Myself, I've never been able to pull off that pixel perfect landing. I always hit the horn and usually fall in the abyss.

[vortigaunt25]

@RoahmMythril Yeah, it takes a LOT of practice. I must of died thousands of times before I began to nail it. But it's definitely a good trick to pull in speed runs if you can do it right...The keyword being "if". o.O

[RoahmMythril]

Indeed, that is a big if XD

[glovestrong48]

wow Roahm, in a month you finished perfect runs of Mega Man 1 AND 2. You must've been pretty busy to start off your youtube videos like that.

[RoahmMythril]

Haha, with Quick Man in there, it didn't feel like it went by that fast XD

[PinkKittyRose]

5:14 SPLAT!

...and then Roahm found himself with egg on his face. I cannot help but grin as I see this one coming... XD

[RoahmMythril]

Agh, freaking birds, they are pure evil X)

[DriveInTake]

I always thought the flashing thing in the Air Tiki was health.

[DriveInTake]

Personally, I preferred Item 2 over Rush.

Rush was broken in 3.

[PokeMew1]

I pwned airman my first time fighting him. Took no damage, but got hit by one of those darn birds. -_-

[ballsacjac]

You have a point it took me a couple minutes to get used to it. To each his own!

[ballsacjac]

Nice skills man....you should get hip to jumping on the very edge of the tiki's

[RoahmMythril]

Eh, I'm not good at pixel-perfect landings like that. I know it's possible, I've seen others do it, including Pink, but I can never seem to get that landing right.

[ambis99]

Holy shit dude! How is this possible? I can never pass this stage without getting hit! Good job man!!!!

[luigiisawsome85]

Imagine Air man and Slash man as the stage bosses and you doing a perfect run XP (I'll leave you to think about that)

[TARINunit9]

If you think Airman in this game is hard to dodge, it's nothing compared to his MM3 incarnation!! It's the exact same pattern of tornadoes, but for some reason it's like 20 TIMES HARDER TO DODGE!!! I can blaze through MM2 Airman like nothing, but when I got to him in MM3, I realized whoever wrote "I Can't Defeat Airman" was obviously talking about MM3

[RoahmMythril]

Oddly, I thought MM3's was easier since you can at least slide in that one.

[WhiteTigerShiro]

@RoahmMythril

Actually, it is noted that you have a slightly bigger hit box in MM3. I suppose it balances with the ability to slide, but it makes jumping through clouds harder.

[Drako377]

@TARINunit9 no. it was clearly a reference to MM2, hence the reference to item #2 heat man's disappearing blocks and the leaf shield.and it says, even though i can get behind him. not at all like MM3 : \

[TARINunit9]

Well DUH!!! Did you really think I actually believed that? I was just making a hyperbole

[Drako377]

@TARINunit9 hyperbole? that's a new one, guessing that is some what in the same category as an oxymoron, seeing as how its similar in its meaning. my guess from what your statement said, and from your latest comment that hyperbole is quite similar to a rhetorical statement no?

[RoahmMythril]

Hyperbole means extreme exaggeration.

[Drako377]

@RoahmMythril o.o did you go to dragon school???

(i think you should do the megaman X games as X) buster only would be a challange ont hose :D ) lol

BTW, love your videos and commentary its funny :) very entertaining

[RoahmMythril]

I have no desire to do anything with the X series I'm afraid, I dislike that series, don't have all the games in the series, have no desire to collect the rest, or any desire to play them really.

[Drako377]

@RoahmMythril ah, i see, i liked X4 but the others were quite lame... the armors were over powered, and the super dashes made the game ridiculously easy... hmmm

yeah i dont even know lol, im more of an RPG player myself : \ so final fantasy is my game of choice

[CelesChere694]

I hate bosses that have attacks that are next to impossible to dodge. It's kinda cheap.

[Devilfish6666]

saw a vid now with mm3 quickman perfect.......fuck....lol insane work

[OmegaWeaponX25]

No offence Roahm but you got pretty lucky at Air Man didn't you? You got all easy waves on your run. Just as he was about to throw a tough one you took him out.

[OmegaWeaponX25]

Just forget that post. I didn't listen well enough to your analysis in which you clearly state that luck had a lot to say here.

Your video still proved helpful to an extent. I was just about to give up because that robot master kept spamming near-impossible waves - never done em' once. Then i see your video and go "Well, it seems that sometimes he will cooperate" and shortly thereafter take him out buster-only no damage. You deserve 5 stars for such limitless patience this must take.

[RoahmMythril]

Haha, well thank you ;) Indeed, Air Man is largely luck. Perhaps all the patterns can be dodged, but you probably need insane reflexes for some of them.

[OmegaWeaponX25]

Its probably more about timing.

[Devilfish6666]

too right, they CAN all be dodged but there is one combination that i only get through in about 1 of 5 times and only when staying SUPER focused.....frustrating lol but i managed to perfect run him once:P can u do quickman in mm3? this one is impossible for me

[mysterymastermind175]

This keep disapperaing, stuff flashing and it lags here and there, but a valient effort nonetheless. However i'd like to know where on the blue blazing net you got "I can't defeat airman" on digi format.

[RoahmMythril]

The lag and disappearances, that's part of the game hardware. I can't do anything about that. It's simply the limitations of the old hardware. As for the song, there's a link to it on the video where I got it from, just search for I Can't Defeat Air Man English, you should find it.

[chicasurfista011]

how did you put those birds at 0:08?

[RoahmMythril]

In MM2, if you hold.... it's either A or B.... anyway, you hold one of them down while you select the stage you want to go through, and it replaces the normal star background with Pipis.

[TheSecretEye]

Oh Gods. XD

[BipolarMoon]

I'm a fan of the pokemon games, I actually had to watch the video twice to catch that well placed joke. I liked your jokes on your mm3 runs out takes. 3 is my favorite, especially Snake Man's theme and stage.

[BipolarMoon]

I'll usher in the end, upon my thunder chariot, man I love airman's stage music. A pokemon reference in a megaman video, weird.

[RoahmMythril]

Well I do have interests beyond just Mega Man ^_^;

[BlackPlated]

There is a lot of people that says Airman is hard to beat, but, it`s not; yes, it`s difficult to do the perfect run, but beat him is very easy, you only have to sacrifice a little of your energy moving forward and shoot him, he is very weak.

[ZioIsPwnzor]

@BlackPlated

they are AirMan fanboys i bet they are gonna be butthurt if they see this vidya

[RedDragon1444]

Gotta love that Air Man song.

[BrunomasterX]

None of Airman's patterns are completely undodgable, just some of them will hit you 95% of the time even after you master the timing on them.

[tommson1991]

Pretty much everything rapes me on this stage. =/

[atza20]

so does my balls XD jk

[mollettman]

X3 some of the stuff you put in your vids is incredible =D.

[Kirbyisround]

Aiming for the horn. lol

[Knirt]

Wonderful! I've got my first contact with Megaman II these days, and recorded some videos of my play through the game. I've found that Leaf Shield is the weapon against him accidentally, but I'm lucky I did, cos' he can be very tricky.

My runs are not supposed to be perfect, but if you want some laughs (especially in my FAIL! collection of Heat Man), you can check my channel later!

See ya! And congrats again!

[AndriyFlooder]

Leaf shield helps there, you can use it agaisnt that guys with lighting and against that small birds that are best one, also, you can got lot of items with this.

[RoahmMythril]

This is indeed true, the Leaf Shield is wonderful against Pipis.

[Sebace0us]

The "hard to dodge ones" are infact impossible to dodge. And the pattern is randomly chosen.

[DigiDude22]

Ahhh... that might be why you hate Air Man just as much as Quick Man... I've always had trouble with his stage at times... but the boss fight at the end is the worst...

[RoahmMythril]

Yeah, since you can't slide, Air Man's Air Shooter is quite difficult to dodge in some patterns, if not impossible.

[jacobislucas]

wow you deafeated him so quickly O___O

[RoahmMythril]

Thankfully, Air Man is not one of the more durable Robot Masters, so if you're lucky and get dodgeable patterns for the first few, he's not that big a problem. However, that's a big if, there.

[AxelGodOfNitemares]

Well as you said in a previous video, you're new to the LP's, but you did a fantastic job. Definitely have my subscription.

[RoahmMythril]

Thank you very much, I hope you like my future videos then.

[RoahmMythril]

Indeed, I will be starting MM3 soon. I'm not sure how soon, as I do have various other personal projects I'll be working on off and on, but my first MM3 vid will hopefully be started up soon.
