solid tip

Bless Up bro can you coach me?

I’m gonna disagree with this. Even in military tactics, it dictates you form a line and start to form an L shape to flank. The 3 triangles will always focus the solo. The one pushing. The 3 triangles can cross fire anyone moving forward. When someone gets cracked. That’s when the other 2 players have to focus one covering the weak player and that’s when the offensive happens.

do you think you can do more videos based on teamfighting? these are good educational content

Next step to explain this concept to all Octane spammers in ranked so they could live

how about we dont use our team mate as bait and peek the door with him?

This wuz ur best vid

that gameplay looks like its on 120 fov so its lil bit older or am i wrong

great content brooooo

Wattson on an open SP of all maps is crazy. She's great in those trenches, but that's pretty niche. I don't think you'll deter many pro teams with "scary fence", and indeed, bubble counters.

Great Vid! Thanks bro!

54:45 If you take such an extreme off angle, wouldn't the opposing team be smart enough to know that you're separated, and ape you?

Nice! Do Thuggets next please 😎

I haven't played competitively in a game in years but back in the day in TF2 and other shooters if I was trialing for a team that communicated like this team I would run a mile. Absolutely awful comms.

If zero had said he's going to swing right with bubble and allowed his team mates time to process that (before sending it), his team mates could have better timed their swings. Honestly TSM are amazing at this. Zap's micro calls in fights are outstanding, to include his communication (ability to know his team mate's understand his plan and are ready). I also heard Zero say the other day, he/they are not about to change their play style. The meta is the meta. Which sadly is to get to center of zone and survive. I also think the meta requires the IGL to micro a lot more in fights. Micro of abilities (bubble and Newcastle Shield) and swing/peak/push timing. Last season Bang could swing and survive a long time with bang passive and smoke, giving more time for team mates to help/react to the Bangs play.

thank you

IDK, Zero said, "I need help. I'm getting swung." Wxlter asked, "U good?" Zero:" No! No!" And then Hal play extremely passive. If Zero was the problem, he messed up before the video starts IMO. Hal should have been more aggressive, but I'm not sure where Wxlter even was from the video. Hal and Wxlter should have been more aggressive and aware of where the other was...Zero picked up Hal and Wxltzy because they can think for themselves. And saying 10 seconds was just hyperbole. It was 4 seconds. Which is ETERNITY in a fight. I think Hal was most at fault for not comming anything and playing too passive.

This is exactly why it was hard to respect the term "In-Gamer Leader" when I heard it in apex bc they so often just scream to be looked at instead of using/commanding their pieces

Could you do an opposite example with a Sweet clip?

Ty, will send this to my Pathy and hope she learns

I don’t understand the concepts explained, but I tried to apply them to the best of my ability. I didn’t really see much of a difference, to be honest. Maybe flow state isn’t something I can reach as easily as ParkourCat did…

first week on controller will update (12/6/24) tree- 33/45/55 mid close no strafes 43/60/70 close strafes 61/75/80 hipfire right stick no strafes 48/70/80 hitfire with strafes 54/90/90

Is flowstate still .4?

Ty for these, Im new to the game and shooters so Im grateful that there are lots that are willing to help us

i like the cat

Too bad R9 is totally useless and doesn't transfer to apex at all

I just had an headache watching your windows taskbar Balvarine holy sh1t but great video ty

What is the point of going offline?

More of this

This is amazing, thank you for sharing. Over the past week I have started to make an effort jumping on r5. So I will come back in a months time Tree no strafe 38.83/50/60 Midrange no strafe 42.45/65/80 Close strafe fast ADS only 64.2/90/90 Close hip fire only no strafe 46.55/80/80 Close hip fire with strafe 58.57/90/90

Lmao Sweet and Fuhhnq were both acting like fruitcakes. Sikezz was real patient with em.

Banger song

writing down for my own relationship lmao

4:37 me fr

If I were a teacher I would make this mandatory viewing in class.

We as a team decided to stop talking (about the game) between games and instead we save vods and discuss everything after the scrim/tournament block. Helped a lot with vibes and the feedback we can give when you've had the time to "cool down". Ive never felt that the post death flaming and arguing had helped at all.

Can you talk to my random teammates and get them to stop ADSing in a doorway for the entirety of every fight?

where do you learn all these art aspects

I agree with most of these points, After reading the latest chapters of Berserk, like something feels off, The art and storytelling seem less dynamic, more flat, almost two-dimensional and the flow while reading isn’t as smooth as it used to be in the older chapters

saving this to watch later <3

came for apex stayed for the vibesss

insanely good content, thanks for the valuable information

i always had linear, sometimes people say i play on controller when i see making so straight lines when they spectate me

I know we haven’t had to many conversations or anything like that but I just wanted you to know that your a pretty amazing person, you always do a great job teaching things/explaining concepts 🙂

I do this and I managed to get my first static VT diamond score, actually goated technique

Yo can you coach my team? Money can be sent if needed
