This series of videos is some of the best coaching around.

[@Dahkeus3]

Definitely. I’ve learned so much. It’s a shame this kinda stuff is so rare from good PvP-focused KZbinrs/streamers.

[@catniptrip884]

One must commend you for regularly using different Classes/Specialisations/Weapons/Builds and doing so well with it. You're doing a good job on your gameplay. Commentary is very appreciated. :)

[@liiladeva9527]

Justo sentía que mi Mesmer requería jugarla de otra forma, y esta es justo la forma que buscaba. Muchas gracias, gran vídeo!!! 10/10

[@papabungle]

That opening was intense

[@xarmanhsh2981]

Yo i am just saying , right now those kind of video you are posting are by far my favourite content to watch.

[@DillonWinchell]

Thanks!

[@darkshiftergg]

The daily uploads of high level pvp gameplay is great. Thank you

[@wd0]

Im really enjoying this build and these videos. Keep it up!

[@flailmail7069]

Good video, great to see how you play and what your thinking as your making your moves.

[@KamiKaXi]

always learning from you, i love PvPeing a lot

[@dante19890]

hate it when u are 1v2 ing for forever and ur ur team is dying when they are outnumbering XD

[@volgtonnen318]

If you can 1v2, so can enemies.

[@dante19890]

@@volgtonnen318 sure, but that doesnt explain why they are dying while 2v1 ing lol

[@TheZerglot1]

Love those passive agresive "They gonna need more than me being in a 1v2" XD

[@Grixxis]

Great daily source of PvP Content! I hope Reaper Onlaught is next :)

[@Quinn2112]

Occasionally, I fall into the illusion that I might actually be able to pvp on my mesmer. But then I watch something like @1:15 and I realize I could never A) be the rev and know exactly when to blind (unless he was just lucky?); or B) Be the mesmer and realize I'd been blinded and react accordingly. It's all too fast for an old guy like me. It's a shame, as I do love the pvp!

[@RatnoonTV]

I feel you, but then I try to not think about it and just queue up :D And even tho I feel like my reactions has definitely slowed me down over the years, I am making progress. Slowly, but still - progress. You can do the same, no doubt.

[@tworadon]

Hey, I feel the same but I'm not old. Ultimately, I believe the difference here is that Vallun has played around 30k PvP matches over the decade since GW2 released. Imagine if you played the class you really like for just 5000 games, looking for challenges, going against struggles, reflecting on mistakes and opportunities here and there. I'd bet you'd end up learning and noticing things like specific blinds from other classes and from yourself on their critical attacks. You would need to learn more about every class but that's because you need to know your enemy. Vallun has done a great job fast-tracking that for us with his "how to counter" videos.

[@RatnoonTV]

@@tworadon Wise words from a wise man.

[@Quinn2112]

@@tworadon Excellent points. I still wonder, despite it being my favorite class, if mesmer is a class I could ever do well on in pvp, as it appears to be much less forgiving than others. But, it's also probably premature of me to decide it is without playing many more matches.

[@Quinn2112]

@@RatnoonTV Motivating words :) Thanks

[@lolax100hb]

Could you make a vid with tips and tricks, like targeting/untargeting maybe keybinds etc?

[@papabungle]

Gotta say seeing as much good play and still losing sums up mesmer pretty well right now. Is this the first one you've posted that you lost?

[@Vallun]

this week? yes, but ive had many matches i won as this build but they were either too easy or not showing the potential of the build

[@cenciqt6045]

he lost because his team was ass though. He was getting +2'd at one point and they still didn't have mid lol

[@siamak7147]

Mesmer is definitely playable and good, but it just requires more effort to achieve the same result as playing something like Necro or Guardian.

[@totallynotzackloll]

@@siamak7147 keywords use there are necro and guardian. That somes up pvp in a nutshell.

[@Sersimik]

you talk so calmly while kneading bodies on the screen, the film can be shot. Have you tried doing voice acting? You'd do great.

[@triveshbenny1240]

which build would you consider stronger, power block axe mirage or the build in the video? Great Video btw

[@Vallun]

one is a roamer the other is a duelist, depends on the current meta which is better but at the moment the roamer is better

[@DrKlenk-cx4hx]

Can you maybe try some kind of Condi Herald for pvp? Maybe (but doesnt have to) something beside the sidenode bunker

[@defleshed2]

Was this after the toughness change not effecting conditiona? Do you still go rabid?

[@codyestes6596]

Thanks for the videos, learning a lot! Is their any viability to scepter instead of sword? I like the idea of putting out a lot of confusion with scepter but it just doesn’t seem to get me results. Probably user error

[@Vallun]

yes but only with infinite horizon on a tankier build with other cleanses

[@codyestes6596]

@@Vallun funny you say that, over the last couple of days, I switched it up and have been playing with Carrion amulet and traveller runes with infinite horizon and chaotic interruption for the last few days. My thought was to not shatter unless its for f4 and instead utilize ambushes. Using scepter 2 and then its ambush after an interrupt has been working really well. Thanks for the tips 🙏🏻

[@DanielSilva-vv9ll]

you solo vs 2 or vs 3 you are monster very god gameplay

[@lisentia]

Can someone explain to me how a mesmer does a ranger leap, and does a revenant staff twirl? Because there were several times that Vallun did moves during this video that I swear had absolutely no utility or weapon activation.

[@Vallun]

they are ambush abilities that mirages can use after dodging

[@lisentia]

@@Vallun Yea but I watched you. You never pressed a button.

[@Vallun]

@@lisentia its the 1 button, gets replaced with a new skill a couple seconds after dodge

[@lisentia]

@@Vallun Okay. I tested it out. Thank you.

[@leshes_1563]

You'r beast

[@Yaeshi]

as a p/p deadeye enjoyer .... p/p thief when ?!?! xD

[@oliverdevega]

Can you use this with a scepter instead of sword?

[@Vallun]

no because you need infinite horizon to make scepter work, but then you wont have any cleanses, would require an entirely new build

[@oliverdevega]

@@Vallun Thanks! :D

Whered u get staff skin?

has this not been updated?

What are u gonna do against troublesome duelists like holo or weaver? U cant win so u roam i guess.

[@yonmata7955]

new player here, how do u jump sow far at 4:32 ?

[@guvgub5234]

Seems like it is the sword ambush skill

[@yonmata7955]

@@guvgub5234 idk, i dont see pressing any buton, all skills r on cd, or am i mising something?

[@yonmata7955]

but i think he is pressing skill nr. 1, is that it ?

[@rafaelplugge3214]

For Mirage every time they dodge (and other skills give them this effect) they "distort" which makes them invulnerable (for like 1s I think), while in this state their auto attack (weapon skill 1, the left most skill on the bar) turns into a "ambush" skill, the sword skill 1 ambush skill is that lunging leap you see being done (it also dazes if you hit a target).

[@yonmata7955]

@@rafaelplugge3214 yeah, i see that is the only skill that is not on cd, but works only on swords, not staff or scepter right?

[@brenobarbosa3489]

would this be good in wvw?

[@ArmySarge000]

how are you jumping like that? i dont understand.

mirage ambush on sword, dodge, then press 1
