EVE Solo PVP: Vargur vs 14 Brave Pilot Cruiser Gang

[@WeirdViking]

I can just imagine the rage about nobody having point in the end :D

[@emPtysp4ce]

Think they weren't expecting him to break siege

[@o7KnockSpeed-cb7de]

lol yeah I'm sure there was some "Strong Language" on comms about that. lol

[@spider0804]

We cant break you with our 14 man so we will drop cap. Classic.

[@HairyStuntWaffle]

this just feels like the answer that's always used in EVE.

[@kylewebster100]

Its actually really boring that corps do it, im i hate being in a fleet and then the corps decides to escalate.. ruins the content imo

[@OWazabi]

Exactly what I was coming to comment, how cringe. :D

[@strax190]

Beautiful escape !

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Thank you sir

[@g2avityhitz]

Such an incredible fight. Absolutely amazing even a year and a half later.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Thanks man. I make a ton of mistakes, but this one was fun as hell, I am glad I was able to get the fight, glad I was recording. Thank you for the kind words!

[@Avantgardist]

Thanks a lot for uploading these videos with explanations that also point out the mistakes you made. This really helps a lot! Very entertaining and great choice of music.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Thanks man, very glad you enjoyed the content. Hopefully I can provide more in the same vein in the future!

[@Avantgardist]

I really don't like those super-perfect videos. You can't learn from those. Could it be I fought you on the KBP7 gate once with you flying a Missile/Armor Scorpion?

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Lussy Lou has some pretty much perfect videos that I think I learned quite a bit from, but yeah, it's nice when you get a real behind the scenes look. I don't think I have ever flown an armor scorp, although I fly a lot of different things, so it's possible.

[@sjdave]

Ended up an experience/training exercise for those Brave pilots. Nice of you to provide them with the opportunity. Great vid.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Thank you very much, of my videos this one is one of my favorites. I am glad you enjoyed.

Mechwarrior 2, that brings meh back Good song choice

[@ericseguin8941]

Great Video - Love the Vargur!

[@emPtysp4ce]

Turning your shield booster off after every cycle is anxiety inducing to me, seeing how fast it melts

[@technikchaot]

Yeah but this is also a bit of tactic. The shield regens of it's own the fastest if you are around 30% if you maximise the time you are at 30% the less you need to boost. And if you overrep you waste charges even more. And he wants to fight if he would look like it might be close they would lose interest (or drop some caps) and at the and as they noticed they will not kill him they tried it with caps. But they hadn't pointed him.

[@Laodell]

Excellent choice of sound track !!!

[@Kavilor]

Браво! Это просто восхитительное PvP! Просто великолепно!

[@youssefakdim7695]

He moonwalked out of there...

[@CommunityGuidelinez]

That was a 2Mil repair job after that fight! Nice battle, really not looking good until you finally popped a logi. The gang was pretty observant and responsive if you ask me. They were quick to pull drones after the 1st SB went off, and they did a great job keeping reps where needed. I'd say you did a great job of bait tanking to keep them around, but I know better. 😉

[@Martin-oj1yz]

Mechwarrior 2 music, as epic as it gets... shivers

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Right?

[@黄辰旭]

I set the qwer for the shortcut of the first line and asdf for the shortcut of the second line equipment. And shift plus qwer & asdf for overheating.

Brave are awesome dudes, but their are a lot of cool places to go in eve.

Lovin the vids. What might be cool is if you could display how many kills you got and what the rough amount killed was versus lost, just so we can see how much you came out on top in the long run.

[@Luke..luke..luke..]

Any reason you never bothered to put neuts on their logi?

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Just did not think of it. This was one of my first Marauder fights, and I was spending all my mental cycles managing tank, because they have so much less buffer than dreads. Target management is a mess, I don't neut logi, I don't use the ec-300s on logi, etc. :) That said it was a fun fight and I learned a bunch, would play it very differently a second time around.

[@Luke..luke..luke..]

Lasker Emanuel fair dues. Good video thougj

[@SakkieGB]

Hahaha, I only thought about neuting the logi and dropping the ECM drones on another logi near the end... I know for sure the sound of my heart beating out of my ears would have overwritten those thoughts if it was me in the fight! Great Fight!

No idea how to evaluate what's happening but I suppose everyone involved had fun. And the music is nice, reminded me slightly of original Spyro soundtrack

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

I am glad you enjoyed, what makes it hard to evaluate? Are you newer to EVE PvP?

[@tappajaav]

I've never played it and probably never will. With some games I've stumbled upon I just occassionally watch videos/footage about but never try myself.

[@evangel1460]

Super late to this video, but noticing that this was done in 2017 before the Marauder buffs makes this even more impressive. I can't even imagine what this would look like now lol.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

I'm sure you can find videos of people flying them, they are (at the risk of stating the obvious) way stronger now, I hardly play and don't really undock the big stuff anymore, but I can make a Golem fit that does more DPS and reps harder then the Nag I used to fly... these 14 dudes would not engage a marauder, you would need a bigger gang, but then everything is the same I think.

[@kebman]

Oh dat sweet, sweet Vintel! :D

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

It was actually just reported in the Citadel, I don’t really PVE so I never setup Vintel

[@kebman]

Oh, how do you make ISK then? Anyway it's still a pretty sweet little software, and it's certainly not just for PVE.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Mix of station trading and plexing.

[@lanebucher]

I live near where you fought, I'm currently in S9X (Linknet space) but i think T-R is either linknet or GF

[@recobozzor628]

Pretty fuckin' awesome !

[@starcitizenaxion9956]

That gang's deaths could have been completely averted if their logi pilots didn't derp and maintained range. Good on you for taking advantage of their mistakes! Some of these null alliances are utter shitshows lol. The fact that they also commit a drop without someone spamming tackle waiting for that bastion to drop is a total fail on that gang's FC.

[@brainletmong6302]

hint: it's in the name, BRAVE newbies

[@FuaConsternation]

so if you could shoehorn an extra shield boost, would you drop that stasis webifier?

[@zzz78979]

why they dont have ecm & warp ?

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

When you have bastion up it makes you immune to ECM (including warp disruptors), but of course you can't move. When you take bastion down they have to reapply it.

[@CowboydanYT]

Nice tank management, poor target management. All around nice vid though!

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

You're absolutely right man, plenty of mistakes. I guess I would be a little bored if I did everything perfectly. Glad you enjoyed.

My childhood

[@MerlinMoorlo]

Man it was cool. Also i want to say u making good video. Can u explain how did u see 3 carriers that arrived?? I didnt see that.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Part of it is that I knew the group that I was fighting, knew who their allies were, and what the jump ranges were from their staging systems. Part was that caps always get dropped on marauders. Part was just gut feel.

[@MerlinMoorlo]

@@LaskerEmanuelEVE thanks! U fighing crazy good. Can u make video pvp lesson i mean with explanation what to do and what can i do. I just want to learn pvp. CAn u teach me?

Why did you leave the Thorax on grid? You got rid of the catalyst to clear some DPS off, but that Thorax to me is a gotta-go kinda thing. Just curious. Awesome job.

I believe only the armor ancillary repairer's are limited to one per ship.

[@ninakozlova2181]

Very nice and fast reaction to the cyno light up! You're very lucky though that they didn't have you scrambled. I'm wondering what kind of gang fleet goes out for gate camping without any warp disruptors or scramblers lol :P

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Thank you! It's a bit of a comedy of errors. I was keeping an eye on who was in scram range, and so I was pretty positive they could not scram me (since they were sitting outside web range). Of course they can use warp disruptions, but that is what the MJD is for. Bastion gives you eWar immunity, and so you can't be pointed while in bastion. I presume when I came out they would put long points on me, and I was eyeing the range to see if anyone was coming close to see if I had to neut off a scram. As it turned out, they did have warp disruptions, but they tried to use them while I was in bastion, the effect did not take, and they did not attempt to renew them when I came out. I did not notice they had not put them back up, so I MJDed anyway even though I could have just warped. Either way it was a fun fight and I was glad to have an opportunity to do it.

[@ninakozlova2181]

VERY nice!

[@alinasimeonescu7489]

That MechWarrior music though.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

It's a hell of a thing isn't it?

[@christiancuneo8005]

How many of these things do you loose trying to find a fight like that XD or how do you find fleets to engage.

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

The engagement is pretty simple, my best outcomes are just waiting for a roaming gang of the right size to be reported, and then go out to meet them (At the start of this one you can see me guess where they are going, and then use the JB network to get ahead of them and "get cuaght"), I have lost two Vargurs career-to-date (zkillboard.com/character/91415469/ship/28665/losses/), one before this fight, and then this one in a later fight which you can see in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnjKfKyZoMl9fs0

[@ChineseSweatShoppe]

What is the opening sequence saying?

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

What you give on to this empire, I shall give back, on to you.

[@ZaGrim]

why never focus the scythes ?

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Just bad decision making. I have a lot more experience in a HAW Dread than a Marauder and I did not expect the logi to be able to hold them. Of course when you have like 800 DPS instead of 3200 DPS it's a very different story. By the time I realized I needed to be on the logi, they had respositioned out of range. In retrospect a combination of neuts and jam drones might have done the trick. As it was my lucky break was when one of them made a piloting error and came to close, and by that time I realized I could not break them through 4x logi reps.

[@ZaGrim]

After, it's easier to see that on your video than during a fight ,). well done for your escape

[@Itgetsbetterofficial]

As a player who gets next to no good pvp practice (See: being ganked by an alteros in a venture) Watching your videos is really helpful for learning how to pvp things. Would you be willing to explain when/why I want to overload modules, and the effect it has?

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Overloading mods give you more of whatever that mod does. Weapons gives more damage, tank mods give more tank, web and point increase the range. Neuts cycle faster.

[@valgrimgaming6769]

why do people blur the names out it's all public anyways, names are on kill board

[@PerceusFinch]

Ok so im noob but why did you not kill the logi first bc wouldn't you be able to break everything else after that

[@LaskerEmanuelEVE]

Because when I had this fight I was a noob :) I got so focused on the tank management (First time doing double ancil) that I was struggling to track what was going on with targets until they got to range.
