Identity V: How to Improve Your Game Sense!!

Hi everyone! Here is a great video of my gameplay during Legendary Rank with MyLeg. I've included some great kiting strategies against Dream Witch and Lizard. And I include fan art at the very end, like I always like to do, and it is amazing.
And please subscribe if you haven't done so already -- and share the video if you think someone else might benefit from kiting tips. I appreciate all of the support!
Again, thanks so much to all of you for watching! I wouldn't be here if it was not for you!!

My kiting just involves me screaming my vocals out, frantically swiping around on my screen and hoping I get lucky enough to escape 😂

[@nightowl__9892]

Astrid I laughed out loud when I read your comment!! That describes me too!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@rapnomnom]

NightOwl __ Hehe right! And honestly I amaze myself when I actually do manage to get the hunter to give up on me 😂 I love your username by the way, the Night Owl skin for the Seer is absolutely beautiful :D

[@anonimus7580]

Let's be serious... For a lot of us that's pretty much the description. 😂

istg that is so true

[@mariazacharov683]

My kiting is just basically "Ok, so I will get to that pallet, throw it down and then-" *gets hit before I even get to the pallet*

[@deguzmanacp.stem-1655]

Meow yes this is a exact definition of how I panic specially when I have low FPS I just can’t kite

“Touch me Doc”-Schmiddy 2019

[@booradley9857]

That first game was really awesome! Most people would just give up at that point and to turn around a match like that .. wow!

[@ivtronic2338]

If there's a lesson I've learned in this game it's to never give up even if it's a lost, it's always time you can improve to make sure it'll never happen again in both factions Hunters and Survivors lmao.

[@coltonkleins]

I did turned a rank match around, dumb teammates trying to rescue doctor when dream witch has detention, 3 go down at the chair, i was kiting 2 servants untill detention runs out and teammates self healed up, it was ended a tie but me with 36 turned it to a win!

[@Baca1016]

Finally a man of INTELLIGENCE.

[@ivtronic2338]

BIG BRAIN TIME.

[@KeiMidori_]

My kiting style is just trapping myself on the same side of the hunter because I threw the pallet too early then getting terror shocked after I try to vault over it

Kiting IQ: **im sorry, but there seems to be a error**

[@spamc25]

I always sacrifice myself for the person that’s about to die but then people never do the same and it’s so frustrating like please learn how to rescue before u play rank

[@pikpikkeripik7952]

And when you do sacrifice, the person you sacrificed for come back, and get hit again by the hunter like wtf

[@hennessy947]

I hate when ppl don’t recuse and when they do they go like 2 or 3. I played minds eye and decode about 4 ciphers, my team did 0 they were all recusing and all got knocked down so I had to go and help, this rank.

[@z_45velona51]

That depend on situation if the Hunter is close you may die quickly

[@chocolatebaby852]

Lina Ahmed or when they are face camping it’s a chance you won’t escape 😫they’ll hit you soon as someone rescues you

[@red_wine9773]

I also do this and if we are on 1 cipher I’d heal myself up then continue to body block. Perks of being a doc main infinite meat shield

[@minus6585]

Remember when this was a horror game? Yeah me too

[@anonimogameplayanimacoes70]

I dint even knew It when It was a horror gane

[@p.7489]

NAME Yo, I started playing a month before season 1 ended and when I first started I was so scared but that’s why I kept playing. It was truly fun playing back then now, it’s so competitive and all about what tier your in I don’t like this game as much as I used to anymore.

[@valentxx]

I keep screaming when first time i played this game 🤣 i played with my cousins and we Scream outloud 🤣 but its not scary anymore

[@neththeobnoxioussponge8929]

@Kein Herz アニ yeah even if IDV was as scary as DbD it will still eventually turn into a competetive game. How do I know you ask? Mainly because of two reasons 1. The uniqueness of each survivors makes it so fit for competetive gameplay similar to MOBA games 2. DBD still became a competetive game despite being a real horror slasher game

[@neththeobnoxioussponge8929]

Cheeky Cheeky Schmiddy, in any other instance it would've been a tie or even a win lmao. Trust me i'll win you with my Lizard one day :P lemme just rank up to evil dragon again ^^;. Also glad to hear even survivors are having a tuff time right now in ranks, I thought I was losing my touch as hunter as of late but it's hard for everyone in rank it seems hahaha. Keep up the good work you carrot 🧡 P.S - I thought Mercenary was behind me but never would I have thought it would have been you of all people, I need to be more careful in instances like that. You wouldn't believe how many times i've seen Mercenary players block my way to doors and such.

[@eye63]

priestess needs a buff. Not a decoding buff, not a vaulting buff but idk whenever I go to a wall the wheel shadow never appears and it always gets me killed and ik I can put a portal there because I've done it before but it just never appears and its annoying also whenever I place a portal it goes next to me ahhhh

[@notmyrealname6040]

I think it's because you're trying to make a portal on a basement. The basement changes places so maybe at a match you made a portal through a closed basement but on another game you tried to make a portal through an open basement which you can't do.

[@viix3388]

I’ve been saving people from he chair and getting them away from the hunter but like a second later they come back to save and that’s what the hunter wants. Ugh I can’t even get good coordinated teams nowadays

[@SongSong-em8yi]

Really good video with lots of great and quality content 😍 Thank you for showing us some mind game and thoughts going on when high tier survivor plays and of course also the tips on how to turn a game around and what to do in order to turn it around 🥰 It really helps a lot and gives a good insight of the IQ-game and the last match again showed why teamwork, coordination and communications are so important ❤️

[@nightowl__9892]

Song Song I agree. I’ve always loved the teamwork AO shows during gameplay!! They are so good at the game because if their ability to read each other! Can’t wait to see them in COA 3❤️❤️❤️

Finally the tutorial that I've been waiting for 😍😍😍

[@makky223]

12:18 she's just staring like 'meh'

[@TakeaSipBabes]

In the first match it would have been a tie or lose had you not been enchantress. That says a lot about her being broken lmao. Not to take anything from your skill, cuz you are among the best and the strategies you mentioned are true, but everyone could have pulled that with enchantress, it’s 101.

[@morgi5433]

Lol not me I can kite with mech but I’m a boosted enchantress and foward

[@ivtronic2338]

lmao on one hand you may be right but on another I did some mistakes as well like not preventing the cipher rushes, of all survivors finding mercenary first and destroying that second bot. Also watching my back, that too ahaha.

[@TakeaSipBabes]

I guess it depends on player, but high tiers know this is true. No other survivor has refillable space creation capacities besides enchantress or prospector, but prospector takes some skill at least and the refill is not as quick as enchantress’.

[@ivtronic2338]

@@TakeaSipBabes This is true, very true. However so far I haven't seen much high tier enchantresses (aside from Schmiddy and two other players I know) being played (I'm also jinxing myself by saying that, since now everyone will play her in high rank lmao). I guess high tiers know she's broken and would at least try to give the hunter a fighting chance. The good thing about her tho is her early game as hunter. You can down her fast if you find her first.

[@coltonkleins]

Any character is OP in good hands, i met enchantress with b badge in rank got down in 20s 🤷🏼‍♂️ and most of my rank matches with enchantress they're the first to got down in early game!

I need your skills as a coordinator main as well. THE BEST THING I CAN DO is 2 ciphers max

Since everyone is sharing how they kite, I will too. My kiting consists of jukes, panicking, and getting hit. :]

[@kazandraasaha5543]

Hi Schmiddy, I'm wondering whether body block on the 1st save is recommended? Also, can u make a vid about all the kiting routes?

[@Schmiddy]

Kazandra Asaha dont body block first save, you have to stay alive to cipher rush. The person you’d age will go down after you save so that’s two down instead of one. You need to decode. And soooon

[@friendlyneighborhoodhater]

hi dad!!! love your vids!!

6:25 or you can do a 360 which really helps sometimes tbh but there are a lot of people that don't know how to do that edit: just like at 7:00

[@tabby844]

A tip is, if you wanna kite, you must pay attention on the hunter. There are short range and longe range. If it is long range, you have to keep a Far distance. (I kinda forgot if it is short range TvT)

[@aelinxx7374]

You forgot to mention the first strategy in your first game, only works if you have have teammates who know how to decode, and not all run to save when the saver gets terror shocked

Ya pulled the IQ joke out... oh boy

dude yes i love your vids so much the fuckin banter KILLS me.. there are so many funny ass comments im crying the stuff about leg getting terror shocked "in my head i already think this is a loss" wasdjkhasdkj!?!? all the comments about geORGE.. "leg is carrying this match. dont tell him i told you that" bruhhh kdsjfhkdskjf on a more serious note though, if a merc DOES happen to get double hit during the first save i.e. already gonna go down, is it better for him to go die somewhere the hunter cant find him or keep bodyblocking for the person who was chaired?

[@agramont1397]

[@AnhTruong1XA]

Hey, I think you can (consider) making a video about ciphers chosing? Like, your ideal choices on each map (early game/mid game) so that it wont get easily camped end game. (=)) but maybe it’s hard cuz your opponent team is gonna know it... )

[@syafiradiah2035]

I once go against FinesseQuit and paublems and im screwed, Like i cant even touch paublems :'(, i played as wu chang btw

[@daimhinaubrey3194]

since it’s a year old video i doubt anyone will see my comment but i just wanted to point out that you don’t need to continuously stress the actions that aren’t important, like “the mechanic does do a bad kite here”, “the lizard does do well here”, it would suffice to just say “the mechanic does a bad kite here but the lizard plays really well”. by constantly stressing unimportant actions, it takes away from any points you actually want to make AND makes your speech clunky and overwhelming. it also makes you come off as if you don’t know what you’re going to say next.

[@uevankhell]

One time, i was kiting geisha for 4 minutes and in the end, I was the one who was sacrificed. Sad vibes man. It’s fine though, at least all three escaped and it was rank so I wasnt that angry.

The hunter have good mind set He already saw Merc and enchan but he still chase mechanic💪

[@shiabea]

How to kite as lucky guy: *you don’t*

[@Jhopemmaa]

When I kite, I try to find out whether the hunter is actually following me or he's trying to shortcut me. If he's trying to shortcut me, I run away. Basically be unpredictable
