[@Euphoglenn]

So you can see when Crunch has his passive up but it’s not super noticeable. The circuits on his back will glow red and some flames will come out of the holes on his back

[@justinfuller7889]

Yes the wires glow on first ability then he gets the flames from the thrusters on his back after the second ability.

[@Ghoster786]

How isnt it noticeable when his character model literally shows you with fire?

[@alancroda4097]

It is noticeable but mast has to talk and stuff to keep the video entertaining so he misses stuff like that, all good

[@steakwash8872]

I usually just count to 3 when using abilities

[@gmac9789]

Yes, since there's not a huge roster, you should definitely do a character for more than 1 video

[@MastYT]

I meant more like within a few days of each other

[@Zathren]

​@@MastYT Pretty sure we're all into it my good man. Go crazy.

[@fudgex453]

@@MastYTI don’t mind, maybe have a bit of a mixup (shinbi off lane, then shinbi jungle next) but even if not you keep the commentary fresh

[@theblaqknight]

@@MastYT Go for it. As long as you're mixing it up with the builds enough to make the games play different, it should be fine.

[@gmac9789]

I mean, I'll be completely honest. I just missed you mast. I missed your uploads. I love it so much that you're back.

[@gdoggy121]

Your “empowered” ability is every third ability used within 10 seconds. You can easily tell when you are about to use an “Empowered” ability because the wires and circuits on your arms and back will grow cherry hot. Your “jet” thrusters will also have flames coming out of them. You can tell that the 10 seconds is about to be up when the flames from your jets start sputtering.

[@jeremywhite8443]

Technically I found you through paragon. When severs went down I had to figure out how to play smite now I get to watch you play paragon full circle

[@BamirengVR]

Me too

[@narmer8431]

bro perfectly timed that intro jump 👌

[@timwhitman3207]

You should definitely make more than one video per character. Your mastery of the characters will increase which is fun to see, plus each character can very easily be played in multiple roles unlike Smite, so you can explore the same character in different roles. I'd definitely watch a countess mid game and a countess jungle game, for example.

[@Zathren]

The big green robo boy. Fun. Feel free to upload as much of any and all heros you enjoy. Hope to see you in the Mid Lane some day.

[@Thunderlord_Tozn]

Pretty sure you can tell when you have passive by looking at your body, you have these jets/rockets/boosters that are on your back and the more you stack the passive the bigger the flame/boost effect is. I’m assuming once they’re fully ignited that you have passive. At least that’s what it looks like as a viewer. Edit: I’m almost positive it’s the rocket booster effect on your back. It even backfires/flickers when the passive is about to wear off. And it makes sense since your enhanced abilities have a flame effect on them.

[@overwatchclone6125]

Dude looks right out of Real Steal

[@Tonaldo90]

Real Steal? Whats that. some heist movie? robbery movie?

[@gordonramzee9457]

​@Tonaldo90 can't tell if ur joking or not, but this comment made me laugh nonetheless 😂

[@thegodsea6003]

I haven't played Smite in years but when I did, you my my main source of videos and guides for sure! I just refound you through now playing Predecessor and your intro tune took me back lol.

[@savannahbazzelle7128]

@Mast if you pay attention to the fire coming out of crunch, it will indicate when the upgraded ability it ready to proc. Also cruches q does true damage when its enhanced.

[@Asheuin]

Dear Mast, Absolutely nailed the intro with the jump pad. Well played sir, well played

[@brenicillin]

you did it. you synced the jump to the drop. absolute madlad

[@danielschriever3448]

Started watching you when paragon went down and wanted to learn smite. Now I get to watch you play paragon. It’s awesome. PLUS crunch was one of my favorite characters. Love it!

[@Subtweeted]

Not only am I cool with multiple continuous videos of the same god, I would in fact love to see more Feng Mao.

[@church5033]

I’m a smite player and found you through predecessor. My friends and I have been having a lot more fun in predecessor after 9 years of smite. Since the game doesn’t let you jungle practice heroes that you don’t own, watching your videos is a great way to learn how they play. Still trying to work my way up to turning off auto-buy but learning all the items for another moba is daunting.

[@yamnbam4346]

You’ve been getting so much better at this game bro. Keep it up

[@pertle1130]

1.5k views with in the first hour we are eating this stuff of mast keep it coming!

[@chadstacy]

when u gank on crunch, u can prep ur empowred jab by using ur Q before u engage. then u do ur dash into empowered E and ur q should be back up

[@wingnuticus]

Keep it up! loving the pred gameplay.

[@Siisjoonperkele]

I am 100% positive that you will love Kwang. He has so many combos in his kit and it feels very intuitive playing him.

[@redbear5801]

I enjoy watching you get to know the game and seeing you play any character is cool, but I would love to see a Kallari match one day!

[@bishopwalrus8513]

One way to tell with Crunch passive is the thrusters on his back. Its harder to see when your fighting and auto canceling but, at full passive he'll like rocket boosters. And throughout different stages it'll get all orange and warmed up. Like an engine

[@weegeemitz9675]

With Crunch, I passively tell when big charge is up because his circuits gradually catch on fire. When his thrusters start flaring continuously, that’s the big boy crunch. Also the Forward Crunch dash shoves people when boosted, which is trippy as hell when you just want the stun, it’s bad.

[@chaosdarlings]

would love to see a video on all the characters but i’ll watch anything you make been watching the vids each day you upload love the pred content

[@Shiuwu0406]

Ah, yeah! I'm so hype to watch you play my main! I love jungling with him!

[@theblaqknight]

I was a Paragon (R.I.P 2016) player. Started playing Smite in 2019, started watching you, and you happened to pick up a game I've been playing off and on since closed beta launched (before that if you count playtests). Pred used to have major matchmaking issues, so I stopped playing awhile back because I got tired of it, and you made me interested in it again. I am learning that I was previously very good because the matchmaking was terrible and I have been losing way more games since Omeda Studios reworked the matchmaking and I now have to play against people as good as I am. It's been a learning curve because I can't get away with so much of the stuff I used to do, and undoing bad habits that only work when pubstomping is hard.

[@1366Erik]

Im so happy you're playing this. I played Paragon back in the day and im enjoying Predecessor a lot. EDIT: Sevarog is super tanky and fun to play as well. Nothing feels better than ulti an enemy back to your team.

[@The_Reverse777]

I have a question. I normally play rangers and mages in predecessor. I'm trying to transition to more of a fighter or a frontline characters. What's more important protections (physical and magical protection) or health (maximum health and health regeneration)?

[@theitaliangamer1514]

Definitely! Any reason for there to be more videos on pred.

[@mrjenchilada]

Been waiting to see crunch he definitely feels like your type of character

[@Twisted_Murse]

A pro tip is to prime your first move so they don’t see then dash and knock up works wonders

[@centurion7398]

Can't get enough of that Golden Crisp, it's got the crunch with the PUNCH!

[@L3jin]

I honestly expected you to play the same characters often. I always figured it was the easiest way to learn a MOBA lol

[@MRTREE841]

Hey, started watching when predecessor came out and love the content

[@themobfamily1268]

I’m loving the pred vids I been knew you from smite vids for a while

[@moizzy1587]

I love crunch's superman pose going off the ramps

[@theblaqknight]

Watching you try to figure out where people went after you push them with dash is really funny.

[@jsoto6279]

Hope youre good man love your vids

[@rafaelrugama4194]

The best way to know you have an empowered ability is Crunch's back When the thrusters are active your next ability is a big one

[@torymiddlebrooks]

You nailed the ring entrance on this one, bud.

[@Sanguinius876]

Don't know if you noticed this in the video (haven't watched it all yet) but you can see which stage your on for your ult passive by looking at the thrusters on Crunch's back. Stage 1 the flames start small, and stage 2 the flames get big signaling your next ability you use is empowered!

[@stryc9941]

I'm all for duplicate character videos Mast, do whatever you feel is best! I'm grateful every time you release a new video 🙏🏼 Hope you are having a better time since the weekend has passed 👊🏼

[@mrjenchilada]

I really recommend elafrost on crunch it’s so good giving him decent mana sustain while giving extra damage and cc

[@IamNich1727]

Watching you play Predecessor makes me want to go back even if it has been 20 minutes since my last match at this time

[@ImAhSumm]

Any chance you played this on og version? Aka paragon?

[@neruson7703]

Another dope vid Mast! Hope everything’s all good in life. Mental health is important so if u need time, take it. We won’t mind :) 💛

[@Shiuwu0406]

It's actually kinda funny watching you dray people around with his enhanced dash and lose track of them ^^;

[@matthewkadota1897]

Is there an equivalence to Bellona ADC?

[@aaronb4571]

Honestly, respect to them for now surrendering and taking it to the end

[@HeadShotxZeRo]

If you walk up to the back wall of 5 camp you can place a ward on his 5 to know if the jungle is clearing letting you know he might come for that lvl 2 gank.

[@at_georgio44]

Hey mast, have you tried gigantic now that it’s back??

[@FatalFlexnard]

I just left a comment on your last video saying I'd like to see what you thought about Crunch! You should definitely try Kwang next, he has a really interesting and unique kit!

[@WShoup9818]

Several crunch things to note. Crunch doesn't get empowered attacks until he unlocks his ult.When his back glows or wires it's his next ability will be empowered. His dash empowered drags enemy's with you unlike his regular dash, his Q/left hook empowered does true damage with 100% cleave. He's in a good spot right.

[@kallroststigen]

So are you going to stay with Pred or going back to Smite (2)? Hoping for pred!

[@spiritbirdgaming5627]

I hope whatever it is that affecting your mental is gonna work out just fine Mast

[@ytry5114]

Im loving this game bro

[@kailonxx3]

Ricktor actually has a postive match up into crunch because his passive makes short trades favorable for him and his q can stop crunch from using his kit. Steel is an offmeta jungler just because his ganks are good and steel is a just a good hero to have on a team. Also something I don't think is said anywhere in his kit is that his abilities are sped up by increasing his attack speed. This isn't that useful for crunch since there isn't a good attack speed item for him, but it does mean frost guard is strong verses him. And if you want try different items on him, void helm and elafrost work well with him if you need to be more tanky.

[@trevorconely422]

Prophecy gives him 65% att speed, with mind razor waves and camps vanish

[@blakep3183]

Great video dude, watching your gameplay has definitely made me a better player 🫡 I think I speak for a lot of people when I say play whatever characters u want when u want. We’ll still be here watching it

[@lonegamer4lifexd637]

Hell yeah brother! ❤

[@Wytsch]

Played a couple of crunch games jungle and these are my core items: - Mindrazor - Infernum - Augmentation - Berserker axe - Optional tank item the dmg is insane

[@hummels8393]

dups dont matter, keep the content flowing

[@mrchocobo3264]

you should level ur dash second for savety or being aggressive cus most players dont expect the stun dash

[@nickpenlnd5500]

@mast at 5 minutes you heard fangtooth spawning. I'm new to pred too and that noise still makes me think I'm getting ganked lmao

[@masonjames8825]

Crunch reminds me of King Arthur, with the ability spam

[@alvino098]

That analogy was stop on.. crunch is bumbas hammer the character

[@user-ov7kx6hp6j]

Duplicate videos isn't an issue! These videos are great!

[@bobbyburna5551]

Duplicate all you want brother. I’m sure it’ll be all good. We’re here for your content and character. Love seeing ya around on pred -SkeleToR

[@alancroda4097]

Hey Mast, you got confused a few times with the empowered lunge (normally right click but in your case R), just so you know in the future, empowered lunge no longer stops on enemy hit, but you actually drag them with you.

[@Mad_Peasant_King]

Played some Kira yesterday, and she seems quite fun, but she won't take the main spot that Sevarog has taken since Paragon. The only issue is that I have no idea how to build him exactly

[@TheBleachDemon]

MY FAVORITE BOI. CRUNCH GONNA PUNCH! Also, is it just me or does Crunch's ult notification sound a lot like SpongeBob?

[@connorplumley]

I find him more fun in the Jungle. Really fun to play with the double dash for ganks. I go Aug, Berserker, Muti, Stonewall, Crystalline. Personally, don't mind multiple vids on the same character.

[@trevorconely422]

Want a real different crunch,go mindrazor then prophecy, then armors

[@emptylance7340]

not sure if you noticed but you can turn on chat in the settings..

[@asmodus4744]

You may not have noticed but your empowered dash pushes enemies with you like herc 1. That's why you kept getting confused where people went and why they were next to you all of a sudden. Looked a bit delayed with latency there too so that didn't help.

[@KrotharSmash]

You don't get the altered attacks until you unlock your ult :)

[@taraskarakos8455]

Dont forget use skils for augmentation on towers brother.

[@aaronb4571]

My favorite hero crunch!

[@jermaineangeloarrogancia7339]

I live Crunch most of the Offlaners look so cool and fun to play

[@MrZ0r0]

All the times when we lose sight of people in fights, your empowered dash is pushing them and the character models get pushed weirdly (thats how it looks to me)

[@Jaje_Chromosomii]

Crunch is my main in this game, great content! Keep it up!

[@Shiuwu0406]

Oh, and do take note not to stand in the Orb Prime's shattered ground. It's a DoT

[@nickdavid1846]

Hoping for a mid game soon, Howitzer is very fun. It does feel like there's a decent amount of oonga boonga characters in this game but it's been really fun learning

[@taraskarakos8455]

Tainted blade is must have item vs that red head.

[@ambralemon]

yay, the intro timing with the jump pad was synched!

[@undefined7172]

Bro throwing hands

[@Twisted_Murse]

Always take dash at 2 for the stun

[@dmgclassic]

I don’t mind same hero’s back to back. Maybe different builds can help keep it spicy.

[@imphoenixx7539]

Crunch is fun in the jungle

[@mookie9642]

Also Mast you can change what region you're searching in the settings. That way you can try and not play the same players.

[@TheFagboy6969]

I’m loving these videos keep em coming as much as you like

[@SolaAesir]

Repeating characters isn't a big deal because there's so few and you're learning the game so quickly that it's likely to be a very different experience watching. I'd try to avoid having the same lane opponent(s), but other than that go nuts. I'm enjoying how much fun you're having with the game while you seem to be pretty bored with Smite for the last season (with good reason). Also, you're probably seeing the same people because the player population isn't incredibly high when you play.

[@shogun5589]

Yooooo im xiHiTa ik that was you we had some crazy kills!!

[@nathangraegin1850]

Save your dash. You are using it first. Use your combo and then ult. Then use your dash and go right into a 3 piece combo again. This prevents ppl from getting away.

[@markymark5359]

Crunch is one of the best characters in the game … even from paragon

[@shanecompton4579]

Can we see you play Riktor offlane next?

[@JetStreak202]

Requesting that you try out Gideon mid. Very good damage and Hades-like ultimate. Just started playing the game because of your vids, and it's a lot of fun.

[@jas3946]

I want some Sevarog gameplay please

[@MojoZeus]

btw you be standing in orb prime FG fire pools, watch you feet mi lord

[@honerablemention4550]

Bro the Augmented Q gets True Dmg lol, it does incomparable dmg compared to every other ability

[@Gorthnag]

HIS NAME IS CRUNCH! HE LIKES TO PUNCH!
