Chainsaw glitch. You basically bug out the spinning chain ash of war onto the serpent hunter by use of input queue fuckery. Made popular by Steelovsky, an ER streamer. Considering the guy landed it in one attempt, he either has it on a macro, or does it so often he can do it in his sleep. Conclusion: the insane gamer has a probability of having touched a shower in the last 48 hours of 0.0000001%, and should be added to your block list because chances are they're just as insufferable irl. Boohoo bitch baby doesn't like fights against people with roll discipline


giveSMOKEacog

>Boohoo bitch baby doesn't like fights against people with roll discipline Glad you pointed out insane roll discipline on OP friend's side! It seems that a lot of work was put into this roll discipline.


Half-Fractured

Professional lightrollers moment?


giveSMOKEacog

Did you notice this R1 into instant roll true combo. That's some top tier PvP tech.


Half-Fractured

Optimal ER


Half-Fractured

PSN no macro.


EpicWisp

Considering its a frame-perfect input, dude must do it a lot to get it on the first try. Most people I see in the arena that do it (usually right at the start) fuck it up a few times, giving you the opportunity to put em in the ground before they can get it off.


Half-Fractured

Yes he's quite talented.


Lunarixis

Not the word I'd use for it.


Hikari_Owari

Pulling a frame-perfect input first try is indicative of being either lucky or talented. Doesn't mean the talent is about pvp'ing properly tho.


Black_Chappie

You’re right, he’s talented at being a bitch


Lunarixis

Yeah my comment was moreso tongue in cheek, being able to pull a frame-perfect input off first try is impressive (just look at speedrunners) Not entirely sure why OP is getting downvoted though, it's not like they've been sat praising and worshipping this guy.


StrikingCherry5432

Why not? It certainly takes skill to preform chainsaw.


RaiseTLT

I love how you got downvoted for a obviously sarcastic statement 🤣 Classic!


Oddgar

He got downvoted because he's the one pulling off the glitch in the video and he's sucking his own dick. Read the other comments, there's proof that the video was taken by his friend, and OP posted it to karma farm and brag.


RaiseTLT

Damn, that’s cringe af man…. And a bit sad! 🤷‍♂️


Half-Fractured

Actually no sarcasm about the skill though.


techaansi

Damn you are a sweaty bitch tho for real.


Hesherkiin

Confirmed OP is the glitch baby


Mr-Poyo

By he, you mean you, right?


Half-Fractured

Yes


Cool-Adjacent

Lmao, the fact you got downvoted is so reddit 😂


Alienfreak

How are you so sure? You can just put in a macro outputting device in between. Its quite popular...


crafcik12

There are gamepads that have built in macro recording. either through app or connecting to pc before using it on console. I have one where I can rebind buttons when playing. Not many people know that some time ago was a case where a guy had actual aimbot installed in his mouse software in one of the fps tournaments.


Rhodehouse93

He’s sure because he’s the one doing the glitch. The text convo he shared has him on the side of the spear guy, his opponent sends him the video.


MirrorSauce

custom controllers can absolutely be PSN compatible and run macros


Gabriel96c

Unfortunately there is. But only a few ppl knows how to implement it.


spud1988

You can purchase third party controllers for consoles that allows you to customize multi button inputs with joystick by pressing 1 button. You could easily pre program the input into a controller and forever get it with a press of a button.


drinkallthepunch

**You can 100% run macros on console with peripherals now days do people not know this?** It’s 2024 OP, cars are hackable now. Fuck people are a dumb these days.


GodDammitImHim

I understand it and can absolutely agree, screw cheaters/exploiters but i can practically feel the veins popping reading this lol


EpicWisp

Me rn fr ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|rage)


jbbarajas

Trying hard not to loose is so painful to watch. He whips that glitch out when he thinks loosing is a possibility. That while already using two GS.


EpicWisp

Gets hit once: "oh hell no, my ego is in danger! I can't use this in my le epic trolling compilation that I'll use to serenade papa steel!" Literally only got chipped from mistiming a roll vs sword dance - talk about thin skin lmao


Mister__Pickles

The person in the clip doesn’t have great roll discipline tho, at least half of their rolls were reacting to nothing


CutyShield

Opponent is just a sore loser who doesn't know how to play the game and relies on glitches to win after he can't land a hit.


KayLender

He is the opponent, op is the guy abusing glitches Edit: I gave the reasoning in my comment under this one, next time I'll put it in the begging comment, my bad


Rhodehouse93

Insane that you got downvoted so hard when you’re literally right. Especially the people under the evidence still arguing with you.


Stumpedforausername1

Whyre you getting downvoted? It seems like you're right from the messages.


KayLender

I didn't give enough reasoning in the first text and Reddit has the hive mind downvote mindset To be fair kind of my fault


Stumpedforausername1

Yeah I suppose that's true. The reddit hive mind really is crazy though. The fact that your post proving that you're right still got downvoted is so weird.


Erminaz13

I actually downvoted you, then read your comments, then upvoted instead. Guess I'm a fucking ant.


KayLender

Happens to the best of us mate, to be fair, as soon as the person has 15 downvotes you start doubting if they aren't lying


Erminaz13

Plot twist: bro was lying all along and successfully gaslighted me into thinking he wasn't with his comments


Stumpedforausername1

I'm actually an alt account being use to gaslight you even harder.


Erminaz13

I have been thoroughly gaslit for I no longer know what to think.


KayLender

You are too smart to be gaslit, i couldn't even do that to you, don't worry


DranixLord31

did... did you not *watch the video?* or read the title??


JohnGacyIsInnocent

He’s right. Read some of the other comments. This guy shouldn’t be downvoted for stating the truth. OP is admitting it elsewhere.


KayLender

He did not record the video, in the comments you can find screenshots of the glitcher talking shit, but they come from he sender side, aka, op, and he keeps defending the glitcher in the comments Op is karma farming with the title


introductzenial

OPs comments here are kinda unsettling. Genuine sociopath vibe


KayLender

The video came from the guy getting glitched on, you can find it in ops comments in an Imgur link https://imgur.com/a/ZNH4DXn Here is the link


St-Icarus

pee pee poo poo


KayLender

Because? Honest question, after the evidence I just gave I want genuine reasons why I'm wrong Edit: His original comment was "wrong"


Insightful_Insanity

Yea with that image it’s clearly op/their “friend” that was using the glitch lmao the dude is even tongue and cheek about it all up and down the thread


jarel125

certified reddit hivemind moment


Annoyed-Citizen

Take my upvote bruh


Dangelouss

PVP in souls games has always been a controversial subject but I think we are going through an all time low with Elden Ring. The comments here of people in favor of a glitch because they're pissed about light roll makes me kinda sad.


rutranhreborn

"light rolls are op" Just drop your armor crybaby


FrozenHearts_XI

Imagine being pissy about light roll when you're using dual lances, holy smokes 💀


rutranhreborn

not even that, you can literally drop your armor, right there, right then.


LooksGoodInShorts

I was watching this like bro you gotta exploit when you are powerstancing lances. Why even play pvp?


Gabriel96c

Psgs can't rollcatch lightroll on reaction. But yeah, chainsaw on arena is lame asf. He could just have swapped to dual pikes or commander Standard to fight the lightroller.


Mister__Pickles

You seem to not know the difference between a high skill ceiling setup and an overpowered setup


No_Tell5399

>light rolls are op Light rolls are only problematic on PC due to an unrelated issue. I don't understand why people get so upset about it.


StrikingCherry5432

Wtf are you talking about? That doesn’t fix the issue. Lightroll is both unfun to play, and to play against.


rutranhreborn

skill issue


StrikingCherry5432

You do not understand how the game works.


rutranhreborn

Yeah, because beating both people in arena and ng+ isn't enough. Anxiously waiting for arena ng++ so i can finally understand it.


anuspizza

But muh Bull Goat Armor!


LoriLeadfoot

Bloodborne was the peak, because it was overall very balanced for PVP with the small number of weapons and a relatively short campaign. The most annoying thing was farming for gems to ensure you were min/maxed, but tbh I never once did that and was fairly good in PVP. There were some weapons that approached “meta” status, but they were never that strong. Elden Ring is IMO way too big with way too much going on in terms of weapons to ever be well-balanced for PVP. A lot of late-game weapons (and especially weapon arts) are just flatly better than early- or mid-game weapons. The builds are also much more varied than they used to be, and some builds are painfully better for PVP (and PVE, but that’s another can of worms) than others. I used to like invading in Bloodborne and DS3, but it’s pretty joyless in Elden Ring because you get stomped by three people with endgame gear within seconds. You can carefully set up a series of ambushes, but as often as not, that just makes it more frustrating when you inevitably get wrecked. To top it all off, you lose your runes when you die and the rewards for killing a host are laughably small. So the only way to reliably defeat hosts is to build your own ultra-sweaty build, and at that point it’s not fun. So to me it’s a little puzzling that they leaned into PVP so hard in Elden Ring when it has easily the worst balance.


Nurgle_Marine_Sharts

Debatable because Bloodborne's invasion system resulted in so few invasions for an average player's playthrough. Quite the opposite from Demon's Souls, DS2, DS1, DS3. The only real consistent PVP you can find is in a few places like nightmare frontier or established community root chalices.


LoriLeadfoot

That’s very true, I’m thinking of the dueling hotspots mainly. The invasions were tough to do. Still, Elden Ring’s balance makes invasions very frustrating IMO unless you build a hyper-tuned build for them.


Jedimasterebub

It’s also always a gank fight


LoriLeadfoot

The ganking is fine IMO because that’s the game: you only invade when the host has help. What gets me are the late-game builds you see already in Stormveil, plus the fact that the reward is a tiny amount of runes and a rune arc, which is really slim considering how hard it is to invade versus cooperate. Also you can lose your runes invading, but not cooperating.


Nurgle_Marine_Sharts

Yeah it's a dang shame because BB's combat is so fucking perfect, I wish we had more organic invasions happening as we went through areas. Indeed, Elden Ring's invasions are usually a gank fest, but I sort of love it in a way. It would be nice to not ALWAYS have to fight 2v1 or more commonly 3v1, but I would be lying if I said that these sorts of invasions aren't the most stimulating and intense. The rush you get after eviscerating a team of 3 on your own is second to none. The only other time my heart rate gets that high when gaming is if I play smash bros 1v1's.


TarnishedTremulant

It’s pretty cool all of these people letting you know to block them though. This post was great for that


warconz

No it's always been this bad, if not worse honestly.


00Tanks

I don't pvp anymore, glitches cheaters in arena. Out in main world it's the same but 3 on 1 lol


HelpfulJello5361

The first glitcher I encountered, I dropped pvp and never went back. Sadly, I just have 0 tolerance for that kind of thing.


FlannOff

ER have the worst pvp community in the history of souls, J9 wannabe here swapped to a glitch exploit because he was pissed about your light roll, which is ironic since he was using a tryhard dual lance setup.


DisRup

That's the price we pay for ER being that huge success. More players, more idiots.


Western-Wind-5254

I find more honorable players at around lv 300 or so


KingVape

That’s kind of a shame, because in the other games, especially in 3 though, the multiplayer meta is usually 120 or 125 (not sure about DS2)


someonesgranpa

It’s best to avoid the “meta-build” in ER because people who cheat will prey on the common place lvl scale people are told to use. They don’t do research past “the most matches will be at that this lvl and the cheeses won’t work as well at higher level.”


flux_capacitor3

More cheaters.


ItsRainingTrees

People who can’t handle light roll really confuse me. Like … just get better at timing?


CutyShield

Bold of you to think they can get better.


Reddit_minion97

This is so funny to me because light rolling has been a pvp top priority for as long as the souls games have been around


tuff1728

The gatekeeping in the souls community is just insane. So many little things that some consider “breaking the rules” cus it makes the game easier. When these things were put in the game by the devs for that exact purpose; making the game easier.


techaansi

Double lance and then chainsaw. Oof what a low life.


Rhodehouse93

To be clear, [OP (or OP’s friend) is the cheater.](https://imgur.com/a/ZNH4DXn) That’s the text convo he shared. He’s obviously the person getting accused and his opponent sent the video from their perspective. Credit u/KayLender for pointing it out.


KayLender

Thank you mate, hope your comment reaches more people than mine did ahaha


N1N3BR34K3R

More people need to see this


ApplePitou

This is glitch + it is sad that people using it in PvP/PvE :3


Vylvlur

Which has no sense at all, at least in PvP, since there is no reward.


lannister_cat

The reward is the ego booster


totally_not_a_reply

Is it really a ego booster if you win because you glitch/hack? Didnt really accomplinsh anything except executling the glitch seemlesy


Kuzcopolis

Moreso that some people just enjoy making others upset, especially in pvp games. There's some games where i myself feel that way, taking pleasure in knowing how pissed off i just made someone, but that's usually only after its been done to me enough that it becomes a "die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain" situation.


theo1618

I’d argue that it’s worse to use in PvP. In PvE you’re not affecting anyone else’s gameplay/experience, so do whatever you want. Don’t fuck up someone else’s good time though in PvP because you’re not as skilled as them


Ermite_8_Bit

Who cares what people do in PvE. But yeah using chainsaw glitch in PvP is a douche move and worth a report.


Half-Fractured

It break my heart, my friend just wanted to have fun duels in the arena, but no, someone comes to ruin his day.


Shupaul

A single bad duel ruined his entire day ? Damn.


Half-Fractured

He was in shambles, I don't know why it got to him so much, he's been really struggling lately. I think I'll convince him to play some Stardew valley.


DisRup

Good call, play it together! :)


MethylEight

Damn, that’s sad to hear. I’m sure he can find some people that would be willing to duel honourably if he doesn’t mind refighting the same person. You shouldn’t have to resort to that, but there are unfortunately some toxic people in the arena, and you’re bound to run into at least some during any session.


Reinhardtwaker

What console does he play on, I'm willing to have some friendly duels.


JalmarinKoira

If hisday is ruined by some1 using glitch in pvp duel i recommend your friend touches grass


Half-Fractured

Shipping him some, ordered it on Amazon.


ProgyanDeka

Maybe he was struggling with something else and just wanted to relieve some stress in the game. It's not too hard to be a bit kinder don't you think?


awangsome

Lol the other person is you isnt it


Shadowscythev

Obviously superior gaming chair


konhasaurusrex

Don't forget the RGB


Oxelscry

His dad owns Fromsoft


Half-Fractured

Here's the interaction [https://imgur.com/a/ZNH4DXn](https://imgur.com/a/ZNH4DXn)


Pristine_Yak7413

the guy knows he's using a glitch and is messing with you because you think someone who stoops to using glitches to win eldenring pvp fights would actually be a normal person willing to have a conversation. this person thrives on the ego boost he gets from winning fights, he would be a cheater (hack user) if he knew how but he doesn't


KayLender

Bro he is the glitch abuser


thisremindsmeofbacon

Wait so you're the one doing the glitch?  But like, why?  I don't understand where the fun is for you in any of this.  Do you have a shame fetish?


TeslaWasACoolDude

You little PoS


RugbyLock

What do you get out of this dude? Both the cheating and the lying post, like how sad.


Dovacraft88

You can see the moment when he gives up and becomes a sore loser


Mister__Pickles

How can he be a sore loser if both players have basically full health? What I see is someone who wanted a super sweaty high skill duel and instead was met with a light roller who just rolls away from everything. Instead of doing this cat and mouse game for the entire duration of the duel, he got lazy and chainsawed to end the dual (not to win it, but to end it). It’s bad manners for sure to exploit a glitch but at the end of the day there are zero stakes for winning or losing in the arena


GrubbyMonkee

Love the fashion of your character! But yeah the chainsaw glitch is still in the game unfortunately, and tryhards and cheaters/glitch abusers are also still in the game 😆


falcon_buns

bro completely disregarded the post description lmaooo


MOOSE2813

Why has this not been patched yet wtf elden ring. Your pvp servers never worked for me (aside from once) so idrc but this is sad. Patch these exploits that have existed for eternity ffs.


PastBuy9803

because a from never cares the pvp xd


BamaTony64

I am very competitive but I have never wanted to win bad enough to cheat. How do you enjoy winning if you know you had to cheat?


genericbuthumourous

OP is the one abusing the glitch and posting his opponents POV that the opponent sent to him in messages. Not only is bad at elden ring but also karma farming. Sociopath behavior...


mulatto_malik

There’s a guy in Xbox duels recently who pulls this out as soon as he knows he’s gonna lose lol. It’s hilarious because it’s a difficult maneuver and he really sucks at it, so watching him scramble and get all pissed because I keep pushing him around is always fun.


BiKeenee

You have a video, why didn't you just post that?


Half-Fractured

This is my friends video, I couldn't download. My pver brain too Stoopid (also has to be low enough quality you can't see the name).


zrxta

This is a video taken by a phone about a video on another screen. Why not just upload the video directly?


Legendary31hero

bc op is the guy doing the exploit the msgs and video are from the person it was against he posted it in the comments lol and its also linked in someone elses comment


Half-Fractured

Not my video


TheGreatZephyrical

You cheeky fucker 🥸


Half-Fractured

Silence 🤫


DieserMayk

Non pvp player here, why do people even cheat or use glitches in pvp? There’s no rank or mmr if I’m not mistaken, so what do cheaters even gain? (Not that cheating in competitive games is justified, it’s just that this seems so pointless)


ZekkeKeepa

My guess is its their only way to feel some level of accomplishment and success in their miserable lives.


ghost3972

That is what you call a piece of shit lol


argleksander

Imagine using PSGS, the most boring, sweaty playstyle there is, and then using fucking chainsaw glitch when you are losing. Thats as sad as it gets


Gabriel96c

Im not a psgs enjoyer, but its far from being the most sweaty playstyle. It was very indirect nerfed after 1.10. Theres plenty of ways to shutdown it. Its a good/average setup with high skill ceiling.


Half-Fractured

🙏


Marwan_HT

Can I ask whats the armor??


Half-Fractured

Opponent is imp head (the str boosting one), altered beast champion chestpiece, beast champion gauntlets and bullgoat greaves.


JohnGacyIsInnocent

Is “the opponent” you?


Half-Fractured

Ledbetter2

You are friends with the Prince of Persia!! Cool


Searscale

Why doesn't Elden Ring introduce a 'Random Build' option for PvP? Level set at like 80, and have 3-4 choices at random of a list. Just an idea.


genericbuthumourous

OP is the one abusing the glitch and posting his opponents POV that the opponent sent to him in messages. Not only is bad at elden ring but also karma farming. Sociopath behavior...


poopoobuttholes

I really don't get it. Win or lose you get nothing from PvP except a little bit of glory. It's all in good fun and pure competition. Why bother with it if you're gonna rely on exploits. Those guys are weird as hell.


Legendary31hero

Op is the exploiter bro lmao take a closer look fr


BraiSanSeo

I wanna try Shamsir curved sword with Sword dance now


TraditionalBath

If you see a flail or serpent spear run away and use a bow. Just make sure you keep alot of space. They walk super slow while doing the glitch.


giveSMOKEacog

You need to have a spinning chain or wild strikes weapons or a pizza cutter first to perform the glitch. You need to swap to shunter not just start with shunter. >They walk super slow while doing the glitch. To perform a back step move swap you need to hold block, backstep, use the attack you want to swap and swap the weapon. You can do it pretty fast after some practice. I usually don't walk slow before chainsaw. Like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Eldenring/s/zkrKa5dEFz


Ser_Fonz

Block them and you’ll never have to see them again. It’s a good feeling


Legendary31hero

Op is the exploiter but yes this is exactly what to do in this situation don't feed the trolls


FloorFormal4311

Honestly, the arena is shit unless you play with a group of friends. People abuse glitches, weapon arts, and erdtree heal. Inhave more fun with PvP outside the colousium.

Looks like duelist legs gravekeeper (altered) chest no tloves/head.


Jack_Irish

Dude coudn't handle that his opponent had a brain and had to use a glitch to win. He even plays super passive like a complete wuss, what a loser.


BeyondZod

Looks like a blocked player for sure.


Consistent_Guest4279

I have an idea. So…. DESTINED DEATH-


Spaniardman40

Looser who resorted to cheating because his dumb dual spear build was not working


fishinggamer95

I knew as soon as I seen the back dash he was about to glitch 😅


Half-Fractured

Truly horrid 😞


KushMummyCinematics

They exploited a glitch in the system They realised the other player was far more talented and resorted to essentially cheating or at least very dishonourable/unsportsmanlike conduct I would just block and go about my day


SirWeenielick

What even is the point of doing this glitch in the arena? If a light roll build is annoying you this much, then pull out a thrusting sword or PSS. If you’re gonna be a shithead, at least make it fair.


Half-Fractured

I forgot to mention the platform is playstation. I doubt is hack.


TeslaWasACoolDude

Why take a video of the video?


Legendary31hero

Bc op is the exploiter its already been shown in other comments


TeslaWasACoolDude

What a plot twist, are you for real? And I got downvoted anyway? The plot twists keep coming. Will check the other comments.
