Great videos man! Does anyone else watch videos and then when you are in game totally forget everything you learned?

[@marcussorensen5549]

Michael Phillips yup

[@Jibbs_actual]

Every. Damn. Time. haha

[@rebeccadalton7229]

I have always been really good at faceoffs mainly because i switch around my combos but this video really helped to teach me the counters to what I was using! It really was confusing at first because i needed to keep the videos open at all times but once I learned them I could handle alot of players! great vid!

[@mattroseen1991]

Heard "D-man piss missile", laughed my ass off, and smashed subscribe. Well done 😂😂😂

[@SleevelessGaming]

[@nathanh7925]

[@SleevelessGaming]

[@SleevelessGaming]

[@austinhallberg1736]

Sleeveless Gaming this was the only vid on YT that helped me... thank you so much

[@scottwright1436]

New subscriber here, been loving this series and looking forward to the HUT one. I'm one of the guys that doesn't spend any extra money on HUT so I'll be interested to see your take on it. Any plans to do a fighting strategy video? I know it's a very minor part of the game, I always tend to lose though so I rarely get into fights as a result. It seems like it's a similar rock-paper-scissors concept compared to faceoffs. Keep up the good content!

[@jordanhachey7476]

Amazing video this helped me so much love the series. Can you do a breakout video I've had trouble with doing breakouts if you have put this in any other vid please tell me which one would appreciate :)

[@CascadeScents]

Hey Cam! Great job breaking this down! I play Chel fairly casually but this is good to know. Keep it up, fam! Salute! Love the Rich Swann track as well! =]

[@SleevelessGaming]

haha thanks buddy! lol everyone should love rich swann

[@andrewm4951]

Hey! Thanks for the awesome tips! I just got the game, went online and got stomped out 4 in a row! Haha. Your tips have already helped with the comeback and got my first W. Question is there a way to speed up the gameplay with online play? Im finding it very slow! Thanks cam!

[@SleevelessGaming]

Dr. Drew nah unfortunately the game speed stuff is all set it stone by ea. I'm Glad my shit helped tho buddy!

[@brett1297]

Bro ur the best NHL KZbinr!!!! If u become more active you will become very popular

[@SleevelessGaming]

man i really appreciate that, i stream on twitch alot as well so im making sure i do atleast one youtube vid a week but i might have to ramp it up

[@Tomn8er]

Holy crap never realized it was literally like rocks paper scissors. Knew there were different ways to win a draw but thought it always went to the player who timed it better and figured I kept getting beat cuz of lag or random bullshit lol. Now I know!

[@SleevelessGaming]

haha glad it helps man!

[@BLANEGAME]

don't take any offense or whatever but like as a smaller KZbinr(you) do you have any advice on how to get started and just general tips and stuff if I am thinking about starting one?

[@SleevelessGaming]

Stussy Gaming for sure man, first thing is to write some vids. Every video I make I write out first that way it flows and doesn't come off as just talking. Second is when you make a vid get it out everywhere. Reddit, twitter, twitch, everywhere.

[@Namedyr]

Hey Sleeve, thanks for a great vid! I do have another weird problem tho.. Everytime when a game in NHL17 HUT goes to 3v3 overtime, my RW steps in to do the face offs, which is ridiculous since he only have like 60 in face off skill. Making me loose alot of face offs when i really need to win them. I cant seem to find any way to re-arrange this either, maybe it's really easy fix since i cant find anything on how to solve it? :O

[@SleevelessGaming]

yeah its a problem EA has, literally nothing can be done. good news is your opponent cant do anything either so usually its close. I use the Sharks in VS and since they have so many centers who play the wing (pavelski, marleau, hertl) they have great faceoffs for wingers so that might be something to look into bro!

[@Namedyr]

Allrite, so basically put a good C on the wing then! :p Thanks for clearing that out, that its actually a "bug" or something. Cus why on earth would you put someone who's aweful at face offs, on face offs? Makes no sense :'D

[@Boiler2k6]

Good shit man, good luck with Val'Dor -Dysfuncton07

[@SleevelessGaming]

rattled you go included in that deal buddy! nice meetin ya tho!

[@Boiler2k6]

I asked for it, I am a C and was just out of place at lw. Silky was good about it, he sent me to the Islanders so... lol. It is all good :)

[@washingtonrojas9873]

Cool thx a lot I'm going to try it out I'll let you know boss ... and the way you explain your videos 👍🏻 and 1 last thing I be missing open net goals or when there's a scramble around the net and the puck is loose what do I press on the Xbox 1 just to push the puck in I be pressing x am I pressing the correct button plz help me thx I appreciated

[@SleevelessGaming]

i think you wanna hit L1 on ps4 and LB on XBOX, thats the poke check button, that would help poke it into the net in those situations

[@A_Pancake]

You got a pretty sweet intro

[@washingtonrojas9873]

Thx a lot boss but I use the hybrid I don't use the stick so it won't be LB

[@btrainiscool]

pretty good tutorial, although you should have used visual aids with the controller and the movements. it's still less confusing than other videos

[@SleevelessGaming]

il be honest. usually i will not post a vid unless im completely happy with all the things i put in the vid and the quality is there. this vid took me almost 6 hours haha, the editing was brutal, i had to search through 40 gameplay footage for the clips and by the end i just wanted to get the vid out there with the best explanation possible to help with faceoffs. I agree i deff needed to do the controller image.

[@btrainiscool]

Sleeveless Gaming well, i for one appreciate the effort you're putting into these. it shows! and as someone (with a below average connection) whose taken over 2000 faceoffs in eashl this year, countering the other center is crucial to winning. i think career im right around 60%

[@SleevelessGaming]

thanks for the feedback!

[@washingtonrojas9873]

That's why I said the X button is to poke I want to be able to put it in the net there's lots of times that I do t score on those situations and I loose 2-1 90% of the time on open nets and the puck just laying there smh

[@jiml8801]

I keep losing face offs. Can you please add how to analyze / recognize the stance of the enemy so I know how to determine which variant I should apply? Also the camera angle of the game is very far that every face off looks the same to me. Hope you can help cause all other tutorial sick...

[@bryancassity4681]

Why do you use the rich swann theme?

[@SleevelessGaming]

cause its hilariously catchy and rich swan is A1 lol

[@bryancassity4681]

Sleeveless Gaming true lol

[@jakeluvshockey]

Outstanding video and your explanation of what you are saying is clear and CONCISE. Nice job. Thanks. My XBox 1 tag (if you have one is) JakeLuvsHockey2 (2 for my twin girls, eh.)

[@SleevelessGaming]

I really appreciate the feedback man, Iv been trying to make it super simple with my NHL content, unfortunetly I dont have NHL for my Xbox 1 il probably snag it in the summer so i can help out those xbox guys with some hut give aways! stop by my twitch sometime, I always stream saturday and sunday nights! www.twitch.tv/Nosleeves12 bang the follow button and youll get a notification when i hop on! thanks for watching buddy

[@derekurzads6277]
