00:00Welcome to another episode of Who Builds the Best Weapon.
00:03Today, we have a very special guest here, Vlad from Aria Secreta.
00:08Ta-da! By the way.
00:09I'm coming back to YouTube now. I was also away for a while.
00:11It had been a long time since I posted anything.
00:13Today, here's how it's going to work.
00:15Each of us, me versus Vlad, will have to build a weapon using junk from the scrapyard.
00:20And each of us will have the right to choose up to five objects to build a weapon from that.
00:25And remember, to put these objects together, you'll have to use a zip tie.
00:29We'll have a competition like this later.
00:32Correct, then we'll test it.
00:33To see which one is more efficient.
00:35That's right, the subscribers will decide here in the comments which weapon won.
00:39Okay, deal. So now let's go to the junkyard so we can start scavenging.
00:53I found an old scooter here.
00:55Let's see if I can even take this part off to get just the stick part.
00:59We can start our weapon from here.
01:01I found another piece here.
01:02This could be interesting for us.
01:04I don't know, maybe put a tip here.
01:06And it could even be used to poke things from a distance.
01:09Like this, it could work well.
01:10I found this. It's a bicycle chain, right?
01:12I think, yeah, look, it could make a good impact if we put it on the end of an iron
01:15bar or something like that.
01:16Let's test it.
01:17I think I found the right handle for my weapon to fit and hold well,
01:20which is great since I'm planning to make a one-handed weapon.
01:23I think making a shield here will help with containment,
01:26especially since I might be able to put some spikes in these holes here.
01:29And it's an excellent way to make sure you won't be attacked by a zombie.
01:33This is the backup handle. The other doesn't work.
01:35I can fit it here easily and will make the spikes with these small forks.
01:38I don't know if it'll be more efficient, but it'll look good on the shield.
01:41To finish up our scavenging here,
01:43I'm going to grab this metal cap to put on the front of the shield too.
01:46And here it is, guys.
01:47I didn't get much because I think that since it's something,
01:50let's say somewhat fragile, the fewer parts, the better it will work.
01:54So I'm going to make sure I have equipment that will last longer.
01:57Look what I found. This is going to be our destructive part.
02:00We have a bunch of pieces of iron joined together here. It's pretty heavy.
02:04The handle part is going to be this right here.
02:07Look, we have enough mobility to hit things that are farther away.
02:10And I also have some things here that I haven't exactly decided on yet.
02:14What I'm going to take, I'll take, look, one, two, three, and four.
02:18Maybe this one will be more useful.
02:20So instead of that, I'll take this one here.
02:22So these are my four items that I'm going to take to build my weapon.
02:25So Vlad, what do you plan to do?
02:27Man, it's simple. I'm going to put these together
02:29and we'll have a weapon here, relatively simple, with good range.
02:32It's not going to be the kind of weapon that breaks when I hit a zombie in the head.
02:36Since this is all made of steel, it's going to have excellent durability.
02:39So I'll be able to crush a lot of skulls.
02:41With this beauty here, I'm going to use this side right here.
02:44See if it comes through and goes past.
02:46It's perfect, man. Exactly what I wanted.
02:50Yeah, now it's really going to work out great.
02:52And the idea of having the shield we're going to make later
02:54is so I can defend myself and use the shield to push and set up the attack.
02:59And here I'll have a weapon that's good for repeated strikes.
03:01So I'll be able to defend myself really well from frontal attacks.
03:04And we can still, to a certain extent, right?
03:06Use this here to push like this too.
03:08It won't cause as much damage as the blunt force impact from a hit here,
03:11but it's a sturdy weapon that'll last a long time.
03:12I'm assembling my weapon now.
03:14I picked up the fifth part.
03:15I forgot to show it, but it's this one.
03:17I need to attach it here and make sure it's secure.
03:20And this will have a tip.
03:22So my weapon will work more or less like this.
03:24It will have a tip so we can stab with it or strike with this side.
03:28And at the same time, it'll have this club here.
03:30If this drops on your foot, you'll have a lifelong fifth metatarsal fracture.
03:35My idea with this tip here is for us to be able to slice things besides using the other part,
03:40which will break everything, right?
03:42So we'll have two very important functions here on our blade for any situation.
03:47I was trying to decide here which side I'm going to use for the front of the shield.
03:51So what I'm going to do first here is put a cover on this shield so we can attach our
03:55spikes,
03:56our forks right there, which honestly I think is more for looks than anything else
04:00because it's not really going to have the effect of totally incapacitating.
04:04Good zombie.
04:05Now I'm going to secure it here.
04:06I have to make this thing really sturdy with the perfect knife zombie.
04:10We can hold it like this as if it were a shotgun or we can also hold it like this.
04:15Look, it's true that this way you need a lot of strength to create a huge lever arm here, right?
04:20Hit, stick, it broke, everything turned.
04:23Let's cut, take my weapon.
04:24I think it's kind of ready.
04:26Well, I finished here.
04:27I couldn't leave the shield with a support point underneath,
04:30but it's fine since I get more reach and can stretch my arm well.
04:33Now let's test both the shield and our weapon.
04:36Simple thing, but I imagine it's efficient.
04:38It depends.
04:40Let's go.
04:41Which weapon do you think will be better?
04:42Look, yours, in terms of being scary, I think it's winning, man,
04:45because that's a respectable hunk of junk right there.
04:47I keep wondering, is it practical?
04:49Three, four zombies at once?
04:50Do you think you could handle it?
04:51Yeah, it's really heavy, so it doesn't have much mobility, but it is.
04:54That weapon gets the job done with a single blow.
04:57Mine, maybe if you hit the head or if you get it right in the middle,
04:59like in the ribs or something like that.
05:00But the advantage of mine is that I think it's quick to swing, right?
05:03Shall we start by testing your shield van?
05:05Let's do it.
05:06Let's block here.
05:06I grabbed an orange.
05:07I'm going to hit it right in that little hole there.
05:10One, two, three, and...
05:12I didn't even feel it.
05:14Throw it really hard.
05:15That's stronger than I expected.
05:16Go ahead.
05:18I didn't feel anything, man.
05:20It didn't dent and held up well.
05:21It resisted.
05:22Give it a little push.
05:23Be careful there.
05:24That's the idea.
05:25Wow, that's it.
05:25It worked, man.
05:26Vlad's defensive setup.
05:28I would say there could have been a little more support.
05:30Maybe for better stability.
05:31I'll rate it an eight.
05:32So now it's time for us to test the destruction part.
05:35Since we started by testing your shield,
05:37I'll give you the honor of starting by testing your weapon too.
05:39And the first target will be this pineapple right here, okay?
05:42Do two tests, because ideally you should hit kind of vertically, right?
05:45But I'm going to try hitting from the side here like this
05:47to really test its cutting ability.
05:48That's it, because I don't think that's the best way to test it.
05:50But let's go.
05:58And it turned out much better than I thought it would.
06:00We think that only this part here would cut, but no.
06:02It cut everything, right?
06:03It cut through all three wheels here on the gear.
06:05Yes, it did.
06:06Take a look at how much pineapple is left.
06:08See how it turned out?
06:09You can really see the path all three made here, right?
06:11Look, there's a little angle, right?
06:13Yeah.
06:13This other part here got ripped up.
06:15Now I'm going to hit it vertically.
06:16Let's see now how my weapon performs with the pineapple.
06:19Here we go.
06:20Ready?
06:20Two, three, and...
06:29Smooth cut.
06:29The weight of this weapon here is kind of awkward, but...
06:32That's what makes the cut, right?
06:33Even a small hit will cut because of its weight.
06:35Let's test it now.
06:36This leftover piece of the pineapple...
06:39It is basically pineapple puree.
06:41I cut the nubs in half here.
06:42That's how I finished it.
06:44Wow.
06:44The pineapple completely disintegrated.
06:47Both weapons definitely passed this first test and did really well.
06:51So, now let's go to a water bottle.
06:53Raising the level a bit.
06:54Here it is.
06:55Will it cut?
06:56No, man.
06:56Not sure if it'll cut, but it'll smash the bottle.
06:59Burst.
06:59So what matters is making it burst.
07:07Man, it cut, but it was a clean cut.
07:09Man, it really did.
07:10Look here, see?
07:10I didn't hit it with the middle.
07:11I hit it more with the tip.
07:13These tips might help a lot.
07:14They're pretty pointy, see?
07:16Yeah.
07:17You could even sand it here to make it sharp.
07:19Right, the cut is really sharp.
07:21It wasn't smooth, but it managed to tear.
07:23Here, look.
07:23There are several teeth here.
07:24These are exactly the teeth.
07:25This gear here.
07:26Amazing.
07:26I just discovered a new feature of my weapon.
07:29This part here.
07:30It's movable.
07:31In other words, we can turn it and use the blade part here, or we can turn it and use
07:36the blunt side.
07:37I just discovered this as a hidden feature that came with it.
07:41It's a tactical weapon.
07:42I'll use the blade to try cutting this.
07:46It didn't work well, mainly due to the mobility.
07:49I'm not sure where it hit or if it hit here.
07:51Let's try this spot.
07:52The blade part also didn't work well.
07:54Let's try this one.
07:58Pure.
08:01So, the last one?
08:02Can we agree the performance was lame?
08:04You're not doing well there.
08:05I...
08:05I think he hit the wrong side, Manfred.
08:07The knife is on the inside here.
08:09It's true.
08:09Because let me turn it here.
08:11Look, this used to be a saw, so the blade is here.
08:13Look, you can even see the machete.
08:15Stabbed?
08:15I hit here, and it hit here.
08:16That's why it didn't cut.
08:17If it had hit with this side, it would have cut.
08:19When you test it on the watermelon, hit with this side here, I think it'll split it in half.
08:22True.
08:22We had a bit of a misunderstanding with our weapon, but that's okay.
08:25The hitting part managed to do a little damage, but the performance wasn't very good so far.
08:31Vlad's is winning, huh?
08:32But on the other hand, it didn't burst.
08:35It didn't really cut the bottle much, right?
08:37But look at its condition.
08:38It basically turned into, I don't know, a boat shape.
08:41Here, this top part burst open, and here it got dented.
08:44Look at this, how it completely deformed the bottle.
08:47It's just that I think if it had been cut with a knife there, it would have needed to
08:50hit the middle.
08:51Still, the question remains, would it have cut or not?
08:53Now we're talking, I'm going to test it the way I want it.
08:55I'm going to hit vertically here on the zombie's head.
08:58Let's see if it works.
08:59Wow.
09:05Man, that's what I wanted.
09:06Defending with the shield.
09:07Let's move to the next one.
09:08Hey, Vlad.
09:09Are you ready to get completely dirty?
09:11The zombie will headbutt the shield here.
09:12Let's go.
09:13If we're doing this, we're going all in zombie headbutt one, two, three, and a lot.
09:17What's worse is I didn't even feel it.
09:19It held up just fine.
09:20I'm heavy, so I doubt a zombie could outshove me here.
09:22But it really seems pretty sturdy, because neither the orange hit nor the watermelon hit made an
09:27impact.
09:27No, the shield turned.
09:29There were also small forks here.
09:30I thought about attaching our skewer for better control, then striking here.
09:34This could be a good kit for a zombie apocalypse.
09:36Now, let's check out the gadgets.
09:38Now, let's try it the right way, really testing the sharp part of my blade, which I've already
09:43flipped.
09:43I've already set it with the blade facing the watermelon, and let's test it, right?
09:47Two, three, and...
09:50Yeah, maybe this is kind of soft, but didn't it cut?
09:53It fell here and cracked, right?
09:54It hit and cracked.
09:55It was more of a crack.
09:56Right?
09:56There's an impact here and another here.
09:59Maybe I'm using it wrong.
10:00The problem is the part behind the weapon, right?
10:03So, it could be that too.
10:04It's not ergonomic, right?
10:05It's much heavier than I expected.
10:07I figured you'd have to use this weapon like this.
10:09Look, no, it cut here.
10:10It cut well.
10:11Yeah, it cut well.
10:12But here it turns.
10:13It needed to be more stable.
10:14Okay, use your weapon to finish the watermelon with the zombie.
10:16Well then.
10:17I think to finish, I'll use the part that's really effective on my blade, which is the striking
10:20part.
10:21Because the cutting part here, sorry, but it was poorly made.
10:23So, let's go to finish it off.
10:27Okay, look how it's all wobbly, right?
10:29And really, this part here is very efficient.
10:31Yes, yes, because it has a lot of weight.
10:33Look at the damage it did to the watermelon.
10:35So, did you get it or not?
10:37This also works as a defensive weapon since you can use the tip to push the zombie, right?
10:41Hold here.
10:42And look, from a distance you push and then you can stab there.
10:45And now, who will decide who won will be you guys?
10:48The Master Invensoy's weapon versus Vlad's weapon.
10:50Although, honestly, we already know who won here, right?
10:53The tests speak for themselves.
10:55Man, I think it would be like this.
10:56It would be a team effort.
10:57You see, I would stay here and you would be by my side here.
10:59We would work as a team.
11:00You come from behind here, I protect, we hit together.
11:02Okay, and go.
11:03Work as a team.
11:04That's it.
11:04Boom.
11:05Check out Vlad's channel.
11:07He's finally back.
11:08That's it.
11:09We're in this together.
11:10Thanks for joining us, Vlad.
11:11I appreciate it.
11:12Thanks for the invite.
11:13Let's record more.
11:14It's been a while and I missed it.
11:15You see, man?
11:16Yeah, absolutely.
11:17Thanks.
11:17See you.
11:18We're good.
11:18Until next time.
11:19Bye.
11:19See you.
