[@jeromebaumann9412]

He wasn't supposed to. He killed himself.

[@jeromebaumann9412]

@@ahhhsothisishowyouchangean162 I guess it was the straw that broke the camel's back. He surely had lots of other stuff to carry around. Though TB move was really lame, they are terrible at moderating their support. When they ban someone, it's often for the most idiotic reasons. The humor in the game doesn't show at all in their moderation team. It's like dealing with a bunch of retarded gov. workers.

[@natesturm448]

It's fitting that his last video lesson was his favorite class. Tragically poetic to a degree. I knew Dave through mutual friends and got to meet him a few times. We weren't close, but even with us being just acquaintances I have to say that it still hurts to hear that he's gone. Ever since Chivalry Medieval Warfare dropped I have lost several friends who played these games. With at least 3 of them taking their own lives. RIP Dave.

[@real2124]

Why did they take their life?

[@captaincs8440]

​@@real2124hey man that's not very nice to ask this...

[@natesturm448]

@@real2124 Two were people I served with in Afghanistan (was in the Army Infantry). When they got out we all played games with each other and got into Chivalry Medieval Warfare back in 2012. Both of them took their own lives from the mental turmoil. Something all too common with military troops nowadays. Both of them went in 2014 just months apart. Another was only 17. He took his life after his only living parent (his father) was killed in a robbery in southern Chicago. He was a good kid, but he just couldn't handle being alone. His mother passed away to drug use when he was around 12 (I think it's been a while). That happened back in 2015 Dave is the 4th one now. I don't believe we'll ever have an answer entirely.

[@natesturm448]

@@captaincs8440 Thank you for speaking up but I'm okay with answering that kind of question. We need to know why people take their own lives. It helps us understand struggle and strife.

[@1MSUBONLY1SHORT]

Why?

[@CubeInspector]

People say rest in peace but that comes from a prayer to help get someone out of Purgatory. Suicide is a mortal sin that leads to eternal damnation not Purgatory. People need to treat temporary problems as just that and not seek permanent solutions which will in actuality be far worse

I didn't know about the stamina negation of the shield... As much as I like the Man At Arms class for the sword, helping and healing, I found the shield to be a bit unessesary. And when it smashed it was as bad as being kicked with your guard up. I'd either pop it on my back or just throw it away -- I will make more use of it now. I think a previous video of yours pointed out that the one-handed spear's two main stab attacks can be countered with stab and I don't need to be able to tell the difference between a stab and an overhead -- this has made countering the stick-waving madmen out there a lot easier and a lot more fun.

[@ythandlename]

One underrated advantage this class has is that it has a lot of utility from the left hand alone. While you spawn and try to maintain your original shield, you can choose to use up most of it's health or conserve it for the main fights but putting your shield on your back or arm means you gain back your movement, it can still block stray arrows and ballistas plus you can utilize your free left hand for any pickable items. For example, find throwing axes, mallets and knives which takes up a hidden tertiary slot that allows you to use throwing weapons while still holding on to your shield. This is the best class to use for throwing torches at objectives for benefiting from the passive shield and movement bonus. You can even pick up burning chickens or food to have extra health or a burning jab while still being able to switch to your shield in a emergency. If you used up most of it's health, you can either throw it or put it on your back while benefiting from it until you find a new shield from the battlefield. Use your left hand to gain a advantage from your environment.

[@SoterDave]

Agreed! The best one handed class in the game.

[@CapybaraEnthusiast882]

i was heavily invested into the vanguard with highland sword but i can incredibly appreciate the speed of this subclass even with a shorter range it’s so much fun to bait polearms and larger weapons dodging them perfectly

[@Vlad_-_-_]

These type of guides are very good and fun to watch. Also very informative comming from a beast player like you. MAA is not the strongest class in TO or duels, but it is really potent if you know what you are doing. And its fun and rewarding to play. A fresh air from only playing two handed META weapons. Love being a team player and healing with MAA and I do love getting into close range chaotic melee.

[@SoterDave]

thanks for your input. But I do believe MAA is the best dueling class, if not one of the best.

[@Vlad_-_-_]

@@SoterDaveAgree with you, I saw you play in tournaments, you are a MAA duel specialist if I am not mistaken. It sure is really strong, but I don't know if weaker players can make it work as well as top tier players like you.
