Baiken Scores a Collateral

Baiken attempts a day-long challenge to land a ToD (Time of Death) combo, and while success remained elusive, this clip captures the highlight: a collateral hit that stood out enough to make the cut. The moment hinges on a 5D launcher into a parry conversion—a damage sequence the creator wanted to showcase but had to work around streaming stutters to preserve. What makes this funny is the contrast between the grind (day 4 of attempts) and the actual payoff, which lands more as a memorable accident than a clean execution of the original goal. For viewers familiar with the character, it's a quick look at some of the damage routing and defensive mechanics the character can leverage, even when the main objective doesn't pan out. The energy here is pure lab discovery—less about polished performance and more about the messy, entertaining reality of combo hunting.
