Tosan Arena - Rykinia 3 (Ruthless Gladiator Hunter)

Howdy!
Here is my latest Hunter Arena PvP video, footage from Season 10 and 11.

Human clips = Season 10
NE clips = Season 11

@xXxVa1zardxXx Harder to find teammates on rogue, mainly a good caster or "alpha class" teammate (i.e. lock/mage/hunter - CC/ranged support class). I'm always forced to play some sort of melee cleave on my rogue since I can never find really good "alpha" class teammates, it's always been easier for me to fill that role since competent melee players seem a bit more abundant/available. Thanks for watching!

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@mordiFm Ya always tough to choose the "opening fight". Some people don't like when I put clips of blowing stuff up in 5 seconds but it happens so often! So I went with a longer/harder opening fight this time. Thanks for watching and your feedback ^_^

[@noxyflex]

This video is pure mastermind. The music, editing, and gameplay are superb

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@whytesydev2 That's "conc shot". I guess the font I use makes it look like "long" to an extent :P Notice the first and last letter are identical "C", if it was L and G they'd look different, no? :P

[@TOMASjBARTON]

for the people confused, tosan race changed i think from nelf to human at the end of 4.2

[@myn0valife]

Awesome music (one of few recent PvP videos that isn't filled with WUB WUB WUB WUB), amazing skill, loved what little editing you did, also liked how you did the focused CC, roar, and readiness. 10/10, would definitely love to see more.

[@Dirtyclamjam]

YESSSS waited for this since rykinia 2, huge fan of these movies man!

[@Jokie1988]

The first Track fits that Gameplay soooo fuckn perfect.

[@Ricemachinex]

20 min of pure awesomeness even thou i dont play a hunter i always think i should just by watching these vids

[@havrebollen12]

Your seriously the only person who can make good videos without skype and just music, Awsome!

[@YndigoGaming]

Yet another brilliant movie. Keep it up Tosan.

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@Reliqx09 Haha, newgrounds! Omg I forgot about the Q&A or to notify a change, you are right. However until I have a sizable amount of followers on my stream I'll discontinue the live Q&A because last time only a handful of people showed up, which doesn't do much good even if I can clip the highlights and upload to youtube, it's too long/spread out. Thanks for remembering though :)

[@HealingRogue]

It was entertaining, really. Even though I haven't touched the World Of Warcraft icon for so long, I still enjoyed it. Good music, good effects & great content. :)

[@zhongjie]

sickest hunter I have ever seen. Cool under pressure does his job well. Doesn't hurt that his partners are pretty amazing players too :)

[@Reppiix]

You are probably the most underrated guy on youtube! kudos to you bro, keep on making these :)

[@Herogames2022]

One of the last realy Skilled Expansion i miss Cata Hunt PvP and Warrior played both and it was unreal FUN!!

[@Sebastianonbass]

TosanTribe - most underrated channel in wow :

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@Kakkizzz It's not an addon, I edit all that in so it's easier for the viewer to follow the action; I call it the "action guide" ^_^

[@DodgeThis0991]

I see you're rocking Tyrael's donkey in this video

[@pennerpilz305]

thx rykinia your videos helped me a lot with my hunter ;) i really enjoyed them you cutted the matches good together show amazning skills and the music is awesome to keep up the good work in mop

[@mynicwarner]

If I ever do come back to this game, it will be mainly because of your videos. I miss controlling kids so much.

[@WHYTESYDE]

@TosanTribe I think he means when you type Long Shot on unit frames a couple times during the movie.

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@JaankoGaming It's possible if you disengage->readiness->disengage immediately while mid-air. Takes practice to be accurate though.

[@weoad]

was just trying to say it is pretty useful since usually you blow all your focus on getting that final kill real fast before he gets defensives up etc so i just started using it as well seeing that it can help pull off some 1v2 sorta things.

[@twsx]

Congrats on Ruthless my man. Being successful with an unusual comp = cool.

[@Pyrokarsmash]

wtf is this coordination , and damage.. just subscribed , awesome skills and awesome muisc! big ups and keep that work... actually imma go level a hunter D:

[@LosingMemories]

#1 Editing imo, Simple, Clean & Informative, keep em coming tosan ! :)

[@supraxtrem]

I think it's your best video, loved it :) keep up the good work bro, hope you enter 2012 with the right foot and keep pwning like you did this soon-to-be past year!

[@jelloisbad]

Beast! Slick editing too

[@VTroskaJS2008]

My jaw dropped. Excelent video Tosan, you really earned your r1 title.

[@BigCrazytm]

I love the text of the cc over your focus target, you should do that with your rogue videos too when you focus ss/kick/blind ect.

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@Deadjokker Hpal/Disc both work, I just think shaman is the best fit because Warlocks have always been somewhat of a counter to Hunter's and Shamans handle locks the best (tremor/cleansing waters/wind shear). Also Strength of Earth totem + Windfury totem means our comp has every possible buff for melee except...kings/wild I think? Unless I'm forgetting something. It's nice synergy imo. Any healer works to a degree though, at the least, glad viable with Hpal/Disc.

[@984079]

Love your hunter vids with the nice music ALWAYS

[@St34khouse]

You make the hunter class enjoybale to watch, keep it up Tosan, big fan :)

[@lovedamoney09]

Nice video and great coordination of cc FTW, thank you.

[@ricarduz]

awesome video, tosan...rly enjoyed the gameplay ;)

[@DripsGaming]

The music was superb...Along with your ownage of course

[@keechpowns]

Superb video, keep making awesome videos, mate!

[@TheDeeDotMan]

great video as always bro. Really enjoyed it.

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@JaankoGaming Probably not, it's more of a show-off thing. Only time it'd be worth doing is if you've used your other important abilities and want to reset with Readiness anyway, but for that to occur, while being on the lower level of 1 specific map is pretty rare.

[@XjonteeX]

Yo man ! First of all Great video, allways a pleasure to watch high rated arena play from a hunter, even though a rogue is my main ;) Anyways i got a question for you! Do you use TargetArena123 and FocusArena123 macros when you play ? and if so what keybinds do you have them on ? Me myself i have problems to fit these into my keybinds but i guess its needed in high rated arena play or what do you think ? Do you even use tab targeting at all in arena ? Again thanks for an amazing video ! :)

[@noxyflex]

still dope years later

[@TheTripeak]

Hey Tosan, another really nice video. But first of all, happy new year. I have a question, do you use the razer naga? Because i looked at your keybinds and they are a little bit confused, for me ;-)

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

What are you referring to? Where my pet died? It was a long fight and didn't really have room for it.

[@Tooqwikman]

kfjdflkad That first game, your Shaman really should've shocked anything to get rid of grounding, really bugged me ;)

[@roland2005uk]

@TosanTribe would be an awesome addon. great vids man just subbed. do u do any hunter guides?

[@IIlidanStormrage]

OH MY GOD. Sweet jesus I've been waiting for this.

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@Gnomiliox Good players with a comp people aren't used to seeing played at that level can catch people off guard. Mine and ayumes old RMP play was extremely similar, we have good synergy and often get amazing openers. Even against top players it's possible to make the games look easy at times if played right. The RMP was 2400+, the Shadowplay was 2550-2600+, the Shadowcleave was 2400~ (multi r1 lock at least), the MLP/MLS were only 2200~, hope this helps clarify the rating range :)

[@kvachamp]

Tosan, is that an addon that shows what effect the focus is under, or are you adding that to the video just to show us? And if so, what addon?

[@xXxVa1zardxXx]

hey Tosan, just wanted to ask you why you choose to play your hunter instead of f. e. your rogue? I'm by no means saying that you are bad or anything like that, just asking out of curiosity. Nice vid as always. Enjoyed watching it :D

[@Kakkizzz]

Great vid! What's the addons name that shows all the CCs on your focus. roar on your party members etc? And is your UI downloadable anywhere? Would love to get one similar to it.

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@EivKar Both of them used to be NE then I made both Human, now 1 of each atm. So you're both right :)

[@Shookones91]

really nice awesome playstyle loved the music keep it up!

[@johnnyrlottes]

Your styles awesome. Great vid.

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@cozens2 I have a habit of using Trap Launcher a few seconds in advance, even before I scatter most of the time. It feels like if you do Trap Launcher -> Freeze Trap instantly that it bugs out and extends your scatter shot global cooldown or something, using launcher in advance like that seems to fix the problem ^_^

[@ddogboy]

@TosanTribe Very nice video, How long did it take you to get to the skill level you're at right now? Just curious because I've just started playing a hunter myself. If you got any additional tips you want to throw in I'd appreciate it :D.

[@OfficialYoushii]

I Love you and hate you so much. Love for the fact your such a good representation of High rated Hunter play, that doesnt QQ that Hunters are broken. Hate for the fact your videos always make me want to re sub!!!!!!! God damn your Tosen!

[@Rittalain]

Nice vid, nice skillz as well. Not comparable with Rykinia 1 but awesome. Thumps up!

[@tribeofthepacific]

Really nice video. Don't you play rogue also? What do you enjoy better mate? :)

[@zodiac167]

Hey mate, amazing video once again, I've got a question about your current setup. How come you went from PHD to play with a rogue instead of the DK, I know you're going with shaman because it's more anti lock (tremor, etc.). It's just that unknown combo with a rogue that makes me wonder, what you might gain something with the rogue instead of the DK?

[@g2boss]

love your hunter vids, music syncs so good with the vids as well.. makes me want to play with a hunter watching them you got no idea how much i've played em in background doing bgs, lfr n shit ;p respect, Carê-Outland EU

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@UnholyPurification Long shot? You mean Conc shot maybe?

[@Fadeaway1986]

omg Finally !!!! I have been waiting this:)

[@weoad]

it can be useful for getting off a last kill in 2s then 1v1ing the remaining player. 50 focus is enough to get a good opener on the remaining player making it easier in 1v2 situations when one player has hardly any defensives and low health.

[@IIlidanStormrage]

@XjonteeX He has said it before, he does not use these kinds of macros because he is not using any fancy mouse. He just doesn't have the keybinds for these macros so he doesn't use them at all.

[@ArtistGenjuros]

fu tosan you got the best pvp songs i am jealous:P

[@bgbg000]

wow.. man i wish i play my hunter like you do :D . well done and thank you for the video .

[@Vanfredrik]

Hi there, I am currently trying to work out some videos my self, but I really want to make an awesome intro that I can use in all my videos. What kind of software did you use to make yours?

[@ZeZoReX]

Love your videos :) Makes me like my hunter even more :D

[@zodiac167]

@TosanTribe Very good point mate :D Thanks for the answer.

[@kucirulz]

flawless

[@omgtititititi]

Hey Tosan, first of all it's a really great video! Great to see some high rated hunter arenas :) Can i ask you if you think Hunter/Ret/Shaman are gonna be viable again? And how good is PHD atm? Thanks for all your videos, i enjoy em all! :D

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@soxdakeep Controlling the healer is the key. Your damage is meaningless if the healer is not CC'd and easily heals through it. It's about WHEN you do damage, not how much necessarily. The proper time to deal dmg is when the healer cannot heal through it (target out of LoS, in a bomb, or healer CC'd). CC chains are the key. Healers will heal through your damage easily most of the time.

[@caillet14]

@TosanTribe Thanks for the reply! Hell, you could have your toon taking a poop and I'd watch and like that. Had to mention tdot goons since I'm in the guild... >_> Sincerely, Zorthi-Mannoroth

[@zweraladin]

im following you really quite some time and i know you were good, but what kept me watching your vids was your brilliant sense of humor tbh + good skills. but this vid showed me how fucking pro you really are :O for example you recognize when your shaman dispells UA while trying to get your fear and you instantly trinket it :O

[@Reppiix]

One question about this tho, who are Diziet and Talbadar that you play in some of these clips?

[@Hoxtem]

@TosanTribe Tosan what you think of the hunter 2 set? my hunters useing it atm and the amount of focus he gets back in insane, going for glad later in the season with this comp but with a priest, i like priest because the dispell leads to better mage smashing and the fear helps with the fact that sap shares dr with trap. as always great video dude :D PS what you think of the rogue 2 set? allowing me to get 6 ambushs off in a dance is amazing and resi will be ok when i get ter 2

[@UnholyPurification]

@TosanTribe Oops. I completely misread that about 6 times. Heh, thanks for clearing that up o.O

[@TomasDavmy]

Hello Tosas, Awesome video. I need help with aspect of the fox and hawk macroing into my abilities

[@Camjee]

Great vid, only thing I didn't like was the really long first game.

[@AddictionCheese]

@MyMmamm Make sure you have the masters call glyph so it lasts 8 sec.

[@soxdakeep]

How do you keep your focus up and still do amazing damage??? Ik the opener takes up almost all focus and kill shot finishes well, but what about that middle part where aimed shot doesn't affect well and steady/chimera shot don't do enough damage to out heal?

[@Ricemachinex]

where do u get these music from, they sync perfectly with ur nerd smashing

[@jarredhause9883]

Is that an add on youre using to show CC or just editing, if its an add on which one is it?

[@noobzorbs]

Great Video!

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@AziaWOW Not an addon, I edit that in.

[@75lak]

@whorebucks It is not an addon, Its tosan himself putting it there for his viewers to easly see what CC that is being used (and roar).

[@samotix2]

NAIS!!! Best youtuber ever!

[@Nilsson021]

You are the best hunter ive ever seen !!! cant you make an addon video ? and how can you remember all your binds , almost my entire keyboard is binded and i got a razor naga (17) buttons , im pressing wrong all the time =) awesome video !

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@Heimenn Hehe, just cause he left 2 seconds later and fight was over :P

[@anameisnotimportant]

I never see any post of you on forums about everything wrong about our class, so I have 1 question: do you feel like hunter has no problem or you just don´t care about it and get gladiator? Sometimes I feel so frustrated playing hunter but then I see some of your videos and play it again but its outrageous what blizz seems to not see, at least in my opinion.

[@TOMASjBARTON]

YAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY

[@ubermarine]

Hey, great movies. Especially like watching your huntermovies, thnx for the conc -> trap tip btw, wouldnt have thought of that myself :P anywho, was checking you on armory and saw that you ran with full pvp gear and almost 5k resilience.. what's your thoughts on that compared to running with 2 parts wyrmstalker.

[@BowlCutPat]

Such a beautiful art!! a warlock couldnt cast a single Fear the whole game

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@anameisnotimportant I think Hunter's have some problems, sure, but I think they're minor and mostly bugs (like pet swapping -> pet dies in 1 hit sometimes), snake traps having that annoying dot for no reason, etc.. But they're minor and although I wish they'd be changed, I won't complain about it much. I did make a thread for improvements a while ago though.

[@BLiiNKFAN182]

Hey Tosan. Great Video, looks nice on my Ipod. ;) Can you post your Master's Call & your Roar Macro ? Do you even have a macro for it ? greets from germany, keep rock'in ! (:

[@Flippyy1]

2 facts : he is really good at pet swiches, and it seems he really dis likes mages, imma count how many mages he's wrecked in his video, oh and good videos, keep it up, taught me alot, all the avove /thumbup + subscribe

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@zodiac167 I don't know any DK's that are as good as Ayume or as synergistic with me (we've played together since vanilla). Teamwork is really important, often equally or more important than comp strength. I think PHD is a stronger comp overall but this comp works well with great coordination.

[@tribeofthepacific]

which one of your chars do you have fun playing most? you make me wanna roll a hunter lol! i also have a mage and a rogue :)

[@TosanTribeOldAccount]

@omgtititititi I think those are both viable comps. PHD is viable for sure. Ret/Hunter/Sham probably isn't bad but it's not top tier I'm sure, but in the right players hands I can see it being really good still.
