Agokims (Gedo/Amak) VS KoolRanch (Haoh/Sog) Casual Set | SSVSP
3I was given permission from Agokims (also known as AntLion) to upload this. This unranked, casual set in Samurai Shodown V Special took place on June 2nd, 2025, via Fightcade. I am KoolRanch, but sometimes go by KoolWranch or KR/KW. This footage was captured in 1080p60 and there are no smoothing filters.
This is one of the things I've had in mind. A few of my friends upload their Samurai Shodown games (shoutouts to @jian-the-wolf and @disorderunit1 ) and I had the means to do so for quite some time, but I just never felt comfortable doing so. That changes now.
This way, there's a steadier stream of videos on this channel and you keep tabs on what I've been doing. This also helps me get over the idea of people watching me play. However, those aren't the biggest reasons. Watching Jian's sets, in a weird sort of way, feel like a vlog or a time capsule. Seeing what Jian has been up to and their improvement but also meeting other players of the community.
People nowadays forget that fighting games have a human aspect to them - there is always another human on the other side. I want to keep record of that other person as you might never know there was a VSP player named Agokims or, if you're just meeting me and reading this, KoolRanch otherwise. That random player you got matched up with in your game, regardless of their skill level, might just have the same passion for the game as you or maybe even greater. They might have a worthwhile story to tell. Playing a game with a tight knit community and playing the same people both online and offline made me realize this.
Sorry for the essay. I hope you enjoy this video and the others to come.
