Kratos isn't holding the chain and the sword, he holds the swords and the chains are wrapped around his arms extremely tightly (they even use to be physically attached and apart of him before) Edit: after looking at the design of them, it looks like the chains are attached to the armor on Kratos's forearm as well.

@holliswilliams8426 Год назад

yes but when he throws a sword and whips with it, some of the chain has to unravel and he has to pull it back without hitting himself

The chains are still part of him. He can never truly get rid of them as they always come back if he throws them away

@chrisbolt9717 Год назад

I love the Blades of Chaos but I never did fully understand how they worked, I mean ya obviously the chains are supposed to be attached to the blades but they just dont make sense to me sometimes because what they should be showing is the chains attached to the swords and yey every now and then you can clearly see that they aren't, for example when he puts them on his back you can see the chains aren't wrapped up in the handle and so on. So what's the deal there like how does that work or make sense and after they were taken off and he put them back on how does that work too because weren't the chains supposed to be like literally seared into his armes, hence the scars

Yall don't have proof to of the "gauging" thing, he was just getting out-paced by heimdall. His actual switch-up, apart from the spear, was forcing Heimdall into situations where even if Heimdall can tell what's going to happen, he physically can't avoid the hit

@wesleycolvin7158 Год назад

The Rope Dart MIGHT be a real world equivalent to the Blades of Chaos. When you play as Atreus, you might notice that his moves are much more inspired by existing martial arts. His bow works a lot like a staff or club since it's more of a bludgeoning attack. His combos seem to include something like a spin kick. He doesn't hit as hard as Kratos, but he's more nimble and a bit faster in his attacks.

@chakinabox Год назад

Another one I'm thinking of is the kusarigama, the sickle with a chain attached to the weight. If I remember correctly though it was more about swinging the weighted end to entangle your opponent before closing in to attack with the sickle. Still, I'd imagine the weighted end could do some hefty bludgeoning damage too and may be the equivalent to swinging heavy blades attached to a chain!

@SL4PSH0CK Год назад

"Blunt" lol bludgeoning, holy 5 word essay to describe how a teen uses his fully body to exert force.

@SwordTune Год назад

No, the best equivalent would be chains with no blades on them, since that's how Kratos uses them. In reality the blades would be nearly useless because it's impossible to control the edge alignment, so you'd just be smacking foe with the chains.

@Carson878 Год назад

@Shuyin128MK4 5 месяцев назад

The Blades of Chaos that Kratos was using in the 2nd half are bound with magic, so the chain retracts and extends when Kratos himself wants it to, allowing him to use a two handed style weapon (chain with one hand blade for the other) with just one hand/arm, and in turn allow him to dual wield two blade-chains.

@mageeaaron2624 Год назад

@DoktorWieg 6 месяцев назад

A bit of story about the blades that Kratos uses which are swung around like whips : they are called the Blades of Chaos and while it seems like Kratos is holding the chains, they were originally fused to his flesh in his younger days. As such, while the swings look smooth and controlled, they are literally an extension of Kratos to the point that it wouldn't be far-fetched to say he might actually be able to control their trajectory mid-swing given how accurate and deadly he was using them both in and out of combat. Though by the time of God of War : Ragnarok, those aren't fused to his body anymore, it's somewhat understood that they can still be used like they were while the chains pretty much keep themselves wrapped to his arms when he uses them.

If he was built like Chris Hemsworth he’d be dead. Fun fact, Roman Gladiators would put on weight in their chest and stomach areas so that fat acts as an extra layer of protection against blows that are landed in order to protect their vital organs, they’ll get hurt but they’ll still be alive to keep the fight going as the weapon would only penetrate the first few layers of fat, this would not be for through and through wounds.
