Great work matt I really enjoyed that. The story telling of the match is a totally new idea and I think it’s gonna make a huge difference in sharing and remember the whole experience. Keep crushing it

[@MattTheGymRat]

Thanks for the oppurtunity, Oliver. Continue to make the this sport great.

[@Check_Your_Hopper]

I think it shows how awesome Matt The Gym Rat is because he doesn’t try to hide the fact that he lost a lot of the games. Some people would definitely try to only show things that they do good in so they can keep their “cool kid reputation” up. Matt is the top paintball KZbinr 😎

[@MattTheGymRat]

The best paintballers in the world get shot, to hide that would be a disservice. We got to learn to roll with the punches. Thanks man 💪

[@bilbobaggins7075]

Ego is a real problem in paintball and one of the big reasons the sport is not as popular as it could be

love to see a extremely good paintball youtuber comment on another extremely good paintball youtuber 😎😎

COACHING NEEDS TO COME BACK! Love this!

[@roberthayden6578]

Todd Boyer and the KC sports complex run these for fun all of the time! The format is a blast along with the duel, and it’s been amazing for our local community to come together with.

[@MattTheGymRat]

There was so many smiles after this event because its purely for fun. Todd is a legend for bringing this to the field.

[@eckopoppin]

Bruh, awesome coverage! So cool to see the OG’s keeping the sport alive too!! Keep it up my dude!

[@MattTheGymRat]

Thank you for watching brother. I really appreciate it 🙏

[@favaphoto]

This format is the way. Great job Matt!!

[@MattTheGymRat]

Dis is dey wey. Thanks like always George!

[@themissouriallstars1142]

this is by far one of the best videos of paintball period.....

[@MattTheGymRat]

It was just as fun making it as it was to play it. So much fun to re-watch.

[@TheMemeMachineMatt]

Great video Matty. Love the format. Hope it goes worldwide. Legit good way to get people into competitive paintball.

[@MattTheGymRat]

I agree, i do hope more people get to play it. It's so accessible and easy to playm I really look forward to playing it more.

[@Austin_Stephens]

Dude yes! You make some of the best paintball content.

[@MattTheGymRat]

Thank you Austin! Appreciate you saying that 💪

[@moosehosmer3595]

I like how the people on the sidelines can talk

[@MattTheGymRat]

It gets crazy when everyone is yelling at once but it has so much energy

[@ThePlaceForThings]

favorite episode yet. you’re such a good editor

[@MattTheGymRat]

Thank you dude. You got no idea how much that means to me. I truly appreciate the support, Dylan 🙏

[@djonespaintball]

Wow. An intense battle of sharpshooters. Thouroughly enjoyed this montage. I plan on playing a 1v1 event locally in December. Looks like a fun time.

[@MattTheGymRat]

Its such a good time and you learn so much. Thanks like always D!

[@mercurysimple3850]

You should start getting ice cream as a tradition every time you win. that’s what bmp does every time he makes the cut, be cool if you did it for paintball. And btw watching your vids is reason why I’m getting back into paintball and I wanna say thank you. You’re the bmp of paintball. Keep slinging that paint young man.

[@MattTheGymRat]

I like that idea. Thank you 💪

[@Oliphant1231]

This video is amazing! Kc complex did a joust and duel weekend a few months back. It was the most fun I had in years of playing paintball!

[@MattTheGymRat]

Such a unique experience in paintball! An awesome way to play for sure.

[@0ccasionalmike]

love this video format man. i miss playing :( but happy to enjoy vicariously playing through you! keep it up bro

[@MattTheGymRat]

Thanks for that! I wish I would have performed better out there but there is always next time

[@GrillPiece63]

It is I, #grillpiece!! I was in the sleeveless shirt!! This was so cool that you came out to join the fray and I hope we can do an exhibition duel where we destroy each other for the love of this sport!

[@MattTheGymRat]

Awesome to meet you dude! It was a blast playing out there with you!

[@elicalvo3446]

Watching from a a cold portajohn in west tx.

[@MattTheGymRat]

You're the real goat 😂 Appreciate it bro 🙏

[@justjumpmusic]

Great name for the tourney, and has fun rules. This could definitely catch on. Its easy to run a tourney too as who ever signs up gets matched with other singles, as the biggest problem with small tourneys is having enough teams. This allows players to meet people and make new friends. Could grow the sport for sure.

[@MattTheGymRat]

The best part is we only used 6 cases of paint which makes it incredibly affordable as well. Oliver really nailed it with this format.

[@Jon94679]

6 cases per team??

[@MattTheGymRat]

@@Jon94679 yep. It was incredibly paint friendly because the most people used was a pod in a match

Oliver was without a doubt out there to shoot some people. It was a good time to get to watch everyone battle it out.

[@fusefire8200]

We also play Joust in New Zealand. US and NZ are the only 2 countries practicing this format.

[@MattTheGymRat]

That's really awesome to hear. I know they had one out there so it's cool to see it going to other countries.

[@iHasCaek]

this should be an amazing format for pump, mag fed and mech as well.

[@MattTheGymRat]

It would be incredible to watch the format with any of those types of markers

[@yesman7357]

Gotta bring this to KC at the KC sports complex Todd runs such a nice facility over there 🔥🔥🔥

[@MattTheGymRat]

Me and Todd has already started talks about this! I might be out there soon 👀

The cool part is any field can set it up and do it. They just have to download the Hormesis Elite app to start.

@@MattTheGymRat yesss sir. Quick question what do you think about the methodology of hopperball? I've seen a couple videos from the pbfit guys using it I normal practice not tournament weekends. Your thoughts on this one are greatly appreciated!!

[@elicalvo3446]

Pbfit. Has nightball, Wednesday and Friday nights. 50 bucks. No team required. Hoppers only.

Take the fun out to KC!!! KC Sports Complex will bring all the Midwest ballers out!!

Would love to see this here in AUS but our paintball community is kinda small

[@MattTheGymRat]

Any field can set it up and you dont need a ton of players to do it

[@Tampa_tom]

Can I buy a pallet of paint from a tournament for 30$ a case so I have paint for the year and avoid 80$ a case at my local fields?

[@MattTheGymRat]

You got to figure that out yourself dude

[@Tampa_tom]

@@MattTheGymRat that’s not a no

Anyone else notice 5:30 k on break and nobody catch it?

Oh he 100% got shot just no one called it 🤣

Imagine Greenspan and Margott against each other in this one

[@Darksector88]

Ryan was pretty epic back in the day... Margott too, yeah, that would be amazing.

[@Saibucket]

Hi bro I’m going paint balling on Sunday have any tips?

[@MattTheGymRat]

The most fun you will have is when you're trying to shoot the other team and spend less time worrying about getting shot.

Thanks man appreciate it fr

[@DonLapwig]

🔥 amazing video. Had a blast playing the joust. Hopefully we can host one at the kcsportscomplex.

[@adriansoto5018]

The fact that the sideline are giving out call outs 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@MattTheGymRat]

It was actuary pretty fun. I know its not normal but with just two people on the fiend and your entire team behind you is awesome.

[@theparaminuteman]

naaaah you called chis an "ems driver" bro that hurts......

[@lucaspritchard1018]

Coms from the sideline should not be allowed

[@TheWoeggil]

I don't like the screams from the sidelines. Gives you less chance to outmaneuver your opponent. Oliver likes to shoot a lot it seems.

[@Jarandjar]

I was thinking that it gives you more chances to outmaneuver. If you can keep moving and scrambling their comms it'll just confuse them.

[@themissouriallstars1142]

the joust is more fun type of vibe getting everyone involved is the point it keeps everyone hyped and makes it a really cool experience. the duel which is the same type of format is way more serious with no side line talking. so you get the best of both worlds. the joust is normally a Saturday deal and sunday is the duel

[@TheWoeggil]

@@themissouriallstars1142 makes sense. I did not know that.

[@TheWoeggil]

@@Jarandjar If you stay moving then maybe yes. But as soon as someone moves it tends to get louder i guess. So you end up knowing something is up. But as the guy below answered. It is more or less just for fun and to get everyone involved.

[@Jarandjar]

@@TheWoeggil Well if they're like "He's going right he's going right" And then I switch up the side I'm moving on it's gonna confuse tf outta him lol. That's kinda what I meant but you're right, it's very situational.

@@MattTheGymRat It's paintball without the flanking and maneuvering chess. I'm even dumber than you are, but I think that the wack-a-mole snapshooting dynamic oversimplifies the sport to the point of being boring to spectate. ...unless you're directing/editing it. Your content is gold.
