Fire Mage PvP Guide MoP ft. Hansol [5.2-5.4.8]

[@creatinovic]

Fire Mage's golden era. i miss the MoP days so much

[@robertalexstorm]

Just wanted to come by and say hi on this video that I used in MOP. Thank you for making fire mage my favorite class in WoW. I didn't do a lot of PVP playing WoW until I got on my fire mage. Some of my funnest memories were in 2v2 PVP thanks to guides like this.

[@lennonmccartney4135]

Just got back into WoW since 4 yrs ago. Used to have a fire mage which I loved. Came back to find majority of mages are frost. So glad I can stay fire and be relevant. You showed me the way. Much gratitude!

[@hansolzy]

Sweet man! Glad you're doing good with Fire! My pleasure to help

[@amg_gts1239]

Playing private server coz i don't wanna move on to WoD... this guide helped me alot.. thanks :)

[@kasperag3289]

[@freedyhehe4952]

+kasper AG same here lol

[@amg_gts1239]

Freedy hehe Warmane server right? lol

[@freedyhehe4952]

mark alexis simondo no firestorm

[@hansolzy]

Np. Thanks! This was just a beginner's guide so I might come out with advanced tactics maybe..

[@creatinovic]

gosh, i miss these days Hansol!! brings back such nostalgia. such fun. watched this video a thousand times to get myself on another level. the music makes this so deep :.( especially mako - beam and humming bird lots of love ♥️

[@hansolzy]

Yes I did exclude that part because in high rated / fast paced situations, you sometimes don't have the time to re-apply your DoT when you're going for the last second kill with deep. I've learned the hard way when I re-apply instead of just deeping quick they can top themselves or just purge my proc. So 15% is minimum for GUARANTEED crit on frozen target at ALL times.

[@jonteguy]

I've been playing Frost my ENTIRE time when PvPing, I saw one of your videos earlier today and decided I was going to try it, what I did was read up on what talents etc, I figured a lot of it out since I'm actually quite experienced when it comes to PvP, but this deep freeze combo you showed me REALLY helped me out, with the alter time in it as well to get back one of your pyros. Awesome man, thanks I'll be practicing this now. Cheers !

[@blakepreston4437]

Hansol, I've spent about a week trying to find a fire Mage worth watching, and now I must say I have found the guy. Fire Mage is prolly the most interesting and dominate character. I watched you own luminante. I must say, I'm your biggest fan bro. Keep burning shit!

[@amerikaOnFire]

This is one of the best guides I have ever seen for just about any game. Clear, concise, entertaining, well made, decent music, great explanations and I learned a lot. If you don't do something like this for a living or at least make side cash on it then you really should look into it. Now if only there was a guide like this for Arcane.

[@jctrevis]

We CLAIM for a fire mage RBG guide :) Willing to switch from rogue to fire mage this season. You as a fire mage and Sensus as a rogue are the guys I enjoy watching the most. Reason? All videos are informative, constructive and fun to watch. You guys are humble and accessible and that's what we need. Knowledge should be shared and you two do that the best way possible. I really hate gank and/or bgs against low geared players videos. That means NOTHING. Keep up the AWESOME work!

[@gustavbjrk4177]

Watching this brings back the Best memories of the fire god

[@marcusviniciusebele5671]

better guide ever, we just need a hasnol druid, dk, shammy, wr, rogue, lock, pala and a monk! hansol, prepare yourself and show us this all guides like you now your mage! you can do this? should i hold your beer?

[@mateusy3896]

THIS IS THE MOST DETAILED GUIDE ON MAGE EVER!!! I DONT THING I EVER SAW ANY OTHER GUIDE AS DETAILED AS THIS...keep it coming thx :)

[@dany91307]

This video. Just saved my life. And clarified a lot. THANK. YOU. HANSOL. Got a few laughs out of it too so win win.

[@patricknielsen2362]

Nice too see some Fire mage guides. i used to play fire mage myself back in the vanilla days, and now i want to start playing again, and personly i think fire is way more fun to play! Cheers!

[@joshuahayes1485]

I just recently respected my mage from frost to fire for the same reason you made in the video. Thanks a ton for this informational video. Really helps and encourages me to stick with the spec I like most.

[@ChrisStoneish]

Thanks alot Hansol, I've been waiting a long time for a video like this, really helped me out alot, didn't know that scorch could break the ''heating up'' process, that's been buggering me alot for a long time... Really appreciate it!

[@mcskinnypimp21]

thank you so much this video changed my life. honestly that scorch trick with frost jaw... so priceless ty ty ty ty

[@lele634]

Hey Hansol, just wanted to let you know you are a huge ispiration to me

[@MertAkify]

Man i dont even play fire mage but ive been watching your guides since cata, they are amazing man. Love you brooo keep it up

[@sebib]

Really good guide man. Filled in a lot of gaps i was uncertain about. Keep up the good work, props from Sweden.

[@impostersnake4089]

this is really touching up on questions i was asking myself.

[@mp3leedo440]

"I mean, who doesn't like burning shit." -Hansol .......oh men i died XD

[@smartPils]

This is perfect and exactly what i need! Wanting to try fire, make more guides and keep it so you explain the very Basics first and then how to improve, like from the simple burst to stop time whatever. Thanks hansol :)

[@YangBalanceYin]

You were good when you first started on KZbin. Having watched you since you started, I can really see that you've gotten even better. Keep up the good stuff sir

[@hansolzy]

Yep, you have to be quick. Once you reach level cap, it gives you a bit more extra time because of the resil, but it's something you will need to become accustomed to in order to play Fire.

[@hansolzy]

Re-apply barriers, dot enemies (remember LB can go up to 3 targets at once), spellsteal enemy buffs, cc with polymorph / db when you're outnumbered. There's so much to do while you're fighting which is why the first method of gettting a Hot Streak is very capable of fluid combat.

[@Modica29435]

Nice guide man, loved the pictures to go along with what you were saying they were pretty hilarious. A bunch of nice information, only problem now is actually leveling my mage. Just feels so tedious leveling a mage, compared to my other 3 90s.

[@kappachan2129]

'if you play fire correctly it can be very deadly and very fun, I mean, who doesn't like to burn shit?' AHAHAHAH I LOST IT

[@AnstormGaming]

You are such a great help hansol. Every time I see your vids, I feel like a become a better fire Mage.

[@Azer34LP]

Your guides and videos have really helped me get better at playing fire in BG's and Arena's, Keep up the good work :D

[@kaizitsch]

Way harder then I expected, and this is only a beginners guide, but you encouraged me to level my mage, so I'm going to stick this shit through.

[@hansolzy]

Good luck man! It's a lot of fun. :)

[@ShakeDaVoodoo]

Thank you, Hansol! U r really the best fire mage I've ever seen. And only because of u, I've finally found my class! My little fire mage still growing (86 now) and makin' fried orcs with a crust (yumm!) on bg's. Hope to see ur new videos and best wishes from Russia!

[@rainingfire2092]

Thank you so much for sharing this video! I am playing a fire mage (Currently lvl 33) and I'm getting owned by EVERYTHING. Plz keep the video's going, cause you are a great teacher :)

[@markem1122]

this was by far the most helpful video on fire mages and it is by a fellow pyromaniac. thanks so much for this. once i get MoP (yes i am stuck in cata but i still hit hard) it is going to help even more. for the most part my skill tree is alot of getting the drop on the enemy and taking damage as well as building crit as much as possable. i never knew about the pres-frostjaw combo though

[@Mizzowolf]

I've watched your videos quite a long time ago, firstly because I love Fire builds on any kind of games! But also because you are good at playing it, plus your channel have nicely edited videos. Now I'm back to wow after 1 year and is just good to see that your channel and game play got mastered! ^_^ Keep burning friend! Cheers from Brazil.

[@outlawjerry]

Liked and waiting on more guides. I'm actually fire and leveling through BGs (just return to WOW) so by the time i'm 90 I'll be comfortable pvp with the spec. So, keep the vids coming Hansol and looking forward to the advance guides and your duel videos.

[@gsxrviking]

Hey Hansol! Just wanted to thank you for the guides and the other videos you make. I absolutely love playing my fire mage and a lot of your tips and what not have helped me out a lot. I recently got my girlfriend into playing a fire mage also. She watched this guide this morning and has improved in pvp x100. Keep up the great work! Thanks!

[@CrimsonxBlades]

Best part of the video "I mean who doesn't like burning shit" LOVE IT. Been a fire mage since BC here, so love these videos man. I'd like to also compliment you on your presentation skills. You didn't have looooooong pauses or say uhm every other word. Appreciate these videos, (subscribed!)

[@dragosanghel312]

It is :X, you're like my mentor, i started fire thanks to you, i was playing frost. And this vid, it is GOLD!

[@RalierMage]

Love the vid man, will be referencing it alot since I'm trying to learn how to play Fire in 5.2. Keep it up and you'll always have me coming back to look for more tips!

[@Redrabbit_studios]

Thanks man. I was a frost last season after seeming you play I tried it and never looked back!

[@digglebot]

hansol! you are a god man. Just switched from frost to fire, amazing tutorial man, keep up the amazing work

[@Quammis]

Great guide, loved how much information was given man good work.

[@hansolzy]

Haha. Glad to help! Also. yeah that definitely works well, especially versus healers, but also very risky because anyone else can come in and interrupt you which will shut you down. In 1v1 situations of course, it's nice.

[@hansolzy]

No, in between the cooldown you can cc healers, etc so by the time you get a proc the healer will be cced unable to dispel deep. Or you can spellsteal barriers and procs. There's so much to do. Watch my arena videos and see what I do in between the interval.

[@martijntjehuun]

I started playing frost, because my friends told me that frost is way better then fire. but after a while I saw your video about fire mages, i reforged everything to play as a fire mage but didn't really know how to play it, so i changed back to frost. But after i saw this video, I am really sure i want to play fire, and stay fire. thanks Hansol for your awesome videos, keep it up! :)

[@144unreal144]

this guide was recomended by a mage on wow he checkt the guide also said it was verry helpfull and this guide taught me alot about fire mage , especialy when i found out i played it ok but not as u can play it thx alot this is a great guide and evrything is clear

[@minisiku1]

YOU GENIUS! this help'd me a ton! i acctually found if you manage to get a counterspell for the lock out, then frost nova, throw in a scorch right before you deep, then you can build up pyro's abit quicker :) but you said, loads of diffarent ways to get the shatter combo

[@davejheath]

Really great guide...loved the extra polish that it had almost as much as the content! Thanks alot!

[@hansolzy]

Because it makes the cooldown much longer. In PvP you want to have it up as much as you can to get those extra pyros in deeps.

[@Kraneride]

Your videos are amazing, the only other thing i can ask for is for you to go over your key binds; I know many people would appreciate it Hansol!

[@Kronblom1338]

Just tried fire for the first time at 90. Been practicing on dummies and so far seems alot of fun!

[@danielmaxwell3047]

Amazing job dude! You just keep on making amazing videos! You made me start lvling a fire mage in Cata, and I'm loving it. I had a pause, and when i got back a couple of weeks ago, i had no idea on how to play fire anymore but you helped me out so much. Keep making those videos! We want advanced tactics, RBG guides, updated guides. Basically every possible guide we can get from you :) Keep burning shit! Your new subscriber :)

[@xSLAYtheWEAKx]

Awesome guide! Been a hardcore raider for a while and it's nice to see the little tips you have for situationally freezing people etc. I was being dumb and blowing my deep sometimes before having a pyro ready lol... n000000b.

[@hansolzy]

Yep. If this video gets good likes (letting me know I'm helping a lot of you guys), I might do an RBG guide for Fire :)

[@JacobDMN]

Dude I played arenas with you on your paladin in Cata, I was a fire mage you were a holy paladin and I was all OMG its hansol and we're doing 2s! Thanks for being such a cool dude back then. We were on stormrage and my name was Astrelios :). Keep up the good work.

[@MageyCake]

Nice video! I remember a time when I could only use fire for raiding - pvp was exclusively a frost domain.

[@StoicSunderer]

A few days ago I was a gladiator frost mage and everytime I changed to fire I felt that I was shit...but a few of your videos and now I do top dmg in rbgs and I feel im even better on fire now that I was on frost! But all it took was 5 to 7 of your videos :D!!! You are amazing Hansol

[@TonyVegas11]

YES!! ive been waiting for you to post a video for this patch

[@Vakalutukali]

MORE MORE MORE MORE pwizz :D The pop up pics were freaken hilarious! the guide itself was awesome. thanks man.

[@AnilSecer]

Simply brilliant guide

[@titanscam17]

Liked this video a lot man! I used to play mage a lot back in the BC days and have just recently gotten back into WoW. Still trying to figure out some specifics but this video has helped me A lot and I hope to see many more :)

[@hansolzy]

Thanks, glad I could help. Lets me know I'm doing my job :)

[@uwotmatedankkush4464]

Perfection Hansol! You deserve lots of more attention tbh, this guide was what every firemage is looking for :D keep going man

[@ubergnu8878]

Thanks for this series of videos mate, keep them coming!

[@lumiuqqo]

nice stuff! nice to see somebody still playing fire !

[@mikaelhelander3188]

fire mage since 2007

[@hansolzy]

No problem. Glad to help! :)

[@andresloubet]

Thank you Hansol, this was really helpful and refreshing

[@TheOniDaddy]

Nice bro.. Thanks alot.. I play Fire Mage since the beginning of WoW and even in TBC when Fire Mages were dead. Just got back from a 4 months WoW break. Which means I have to go PvP again cause I am pretty undergeared since I took my break :P This is a little start up to get back on my feet. I already knew alot but you surtenly confirmed it + proof. Keep up the good work fellow Mage!

[@LifelessSleepy]

@Lukas Krivanek that addon is called "ClassTimers" :) enjoy

[@MrUUGGNN]

All the pics at 10:56 got me pretty bad xD Really good guide! I usually play Frost and I've pretty much just ignored Fire since I love Frost. But I will test fire asap. You actually made it look fun too play. Thank you!

[@Kaaslolz]

This is actually one of the best guide videos I have seen, really good job Hansol! /Respect

[@sarahjanebaranet4649]

Started rolling Fire mage recently, this helps alot! :) Thanks man

[@hansolzy]

I spellsteal important buffs such as shields and HoTs, also CC by casting polymorph, breath, RoF, Frostjaw, etc. You just need to know how to manage your CCs and procs. If you want a few examples, check out my gameplay videos to see what I do situationally. Good luck!

[@Jabonix10293845]

grats on glad!!! can't wait for that 5.2 alter time POM video

[@wesleyregier408]

OMFG THAT YOU SIT THANK YOU THANK YOU IVE WANTED TO PLAY A FIRE MAGE FOR SO LONG

[@hansolzy]

In high rated arena, no good team will let you get a frost bomb coordinated with a deep with a pyroblast off. By the time you cast a frostbomb to deep, your pyro will be purged or frostbomb will be locked, etc. I'm sure it can work under 2.2k mmr in 3v3 or duels vs certain classes though. I'm not ignoring it. I've tried it already.

[@unchewable1]

amazing and you saved my butt i am coming back into and i haven't been on wow since cataclysm thanks so much

[@hansolzy]

Ya for sure man, it's just not as easy is all. My partner and I broke 2.2k in 2s last season as Fire / Spriest. Check out my 'Playing with Fire' arena series. I have a few 2v2 games displaying that comp. (also got one with commentary which might help).

[@mynameisgodbaby]

Nice video dude! I stopped playing my mages since MoP, because frost is so op imo, but you makes me wanna go back to my mage, as a fire. Keep it up, you've got a new sub from me!

[@chuckleberryfin8731]

your the most badass fire mage i've seen

[@RhymeFang93]

Hey man this is one of the best PVP How To's Ive ever seen. It was very clear, accurate, and it wasn't just a video of you killing people in Arenas with bad music...Hey can you do videos like this for other classes? healing Classes perhaps? If not maybe if you have an arena friend coerce him into doing it hah. Because I would love guides this in-depth for all my characters :)

[@philippealvarez8688]

Thumbs up if u noticed he is in the "hey im mvp" guild! Great guide, keep the vids up!

[@tribalgos12]

Best guide on youtube

[@JupitersCawkHD]

Love the video, it was nice to meet you yesterday :)

[@MrHotiq]

Awesome video again... thanks man. Cant wait for another ! Keep rocking...

[@Hoodiniist]

An RBG guide would be awesome. Great vid tho! Keep up the good work Hansol.

[@Oliyox]

Jesus Fire is super technical, still gotta get use to the feel of it.

[@joycharles1055]

More vids please I wanna get better, I just started playing fire mage! You're my HERO!!

[@B00nge]

Incredible guide, thank you for uploading this

[@psylosh]

I just discovered your vids, there are awesome ! Clear explanations, pro gameplay, etc : everything we need ! Keep up the great work !

[@yoursound6235]

That Guide helps me a lot men. Thank you Hansol. Also the pics are realy funny :D

[@Loopmootin]

i was thinking about lvling my mage.. but i really never liked frost ... then i saw this video and i am already logging on my mage now.. AWESOME video man please keep it up! :D

[@Warriorez]

My mage just dinged 90 and i'm finding that i'm more comfortable playing fire than i am playing frost. I had 318k health and was doing pretty decent in arena's for my cap but cus my gear is, atm, crafted dreadful, i'm using blazing speed alot to kite. Cold snap has saved my ass many times and i was partner with a demo lock >.< Looking forward to the more advance Fire mage guide and keep up the brilliant work man! Gz on Glad from Eng!

[@bowengabriel]

Thanks for the help love fire and this makes things way more clear. CHEERS

[@spooksmagee]

This video was great, thanks so much for doing this. Looking forward to future guides from you man!
