Hey guys since some of you have recently asked me if I could do a series where I jump in a Solo Q and explain everything I do (where I move, what skills I use and why) I finally started the series! I will try to play all different classes but since Mesmer and Thief are my main ones I can only try my best with the others!

For me it is really hard to talk while focusing on the game but I got some great feedback on my first video so I will continue doing this for sure as long as I can help you guys (especially new players)!

Thanks for all your support guys, rating the video and leaving a comment is always appreciated! Also subscribe to my channel to join Sensotix’ Army!

I love your passion for the game and your desire to help the rest of us improve.

If you find it hard to comment while playing, I guess you could comment afterwards and add it as a separate soundtrack.
It would be a bit of extra work though.

it’s actually getting better and better so i think after some episodes it will be alright
it takes some time to getting used to speaking when nobody is in your room which is pretty strange haha

Hey Sensotix.4106, I tweeted the first video in the series, but there is nothing that links to the following episodes from that page (at least not that I can see). Maybe you could make it so that the videos are linked and people can navigate through all of the episodes starting with the first? Maybe add them to the video description?

Nice guides. I personally can’t concentrate on playing the game well enough if I’m commentating. Good job. Overall, I think the playerbase in EU has a lot better knowledge about rotating then the scene on NA does, that’s probably the hardest part for a beginner.

Thanks a lot

Yea but you get used to it quite fast the problem is to always provide useful info in a way that new players can understand
Puh hard to say but might be..have never played on NA servers

I just wanted to thank you for the video. While I didn’t learn much about game-play I did learn an important lesson about PvP matches.

And that it’s ok to run away. I always had this mentality that I should win every fight and attack every enemy….but that’s obviously not always true. Fighting an enemy isn’t always the best choice and then running for a different cap can be much better.

I’m also glad to see that it’s not just me who struggles with Necros (on a Thief).

Anyway, you helped me end by SoloQ lose streak with 3 consecutive wins. Let’s see how things continue.

yea when i first started playing the game i always fought till the end but after some time it is really important to realize fast if you can win a fight and if not just move to a different point where you can bring things forward
i will try to improve my live commentary to tell you guys more about positioning etc

I also really enjoyed the thief video – I hate s/d because of how useless the offhand skills are but you make it look a lot more fun. I wish s/p had a better dual skill I usually play d/p but I feel ningyou hit the nail on the head in your interview with him about how kitten it is right now in spvp.

S/d is a lot of fun to play but annoying to play against thats why i enjoy it in my videos(muwahaha :>) yea ningyou really nailed it but i think playing backstab can still be viable with the right team support

Very good gameplay and commentary, Sensotix. These are great for new players as you explain good rotation mechanics and in-fight awareness. Experienced players can even learn as you go explain important details that play a major role in improving your play.

zombify i understand that as being one of the best (if not the best necromancer NA) it is hard to accept that there are other good necromancers out there as well …we have been playing with ventari in our team for over a year now and we are in the top 40 in EU for quite some time now..he has shown his skill in duels, tournaments and scrims we did
he has a good tactical way of thinking and knows exactly how to react in difficult situations (deathshroud stomping someone while fearing someone that attempts to stomp me etc etc etc) also he has a huge knowledge about all the other classes as well and how to play against them
there are some great other necromancers out there in EU as well but i would still count ventari to the top and i am sure others will agree

Ok since i sound like i come off as an a**hole, ill try to explain my view. Let me start off first by saying leader boards don’t mean anything so i would not omit that as proof. They are too bugged with the way MMR/setup is to be a solid scale to judge skill. I know for a fact most “top teams/players” dont even care for them ( SYNC included). When i ask for proof, i mean tournament proof/team proof. I dont mean to come off as i view myself being the only necro in the world hahaha. My other problem with your post is it seems you just keep promoting a ton of videos. Comes off as self promotion instead of aiding the community since you have SO many threads. Idk, that’s just me. As you will notice i have a reputation when i really do no self promotion pretty much. I let my play/tournament attendance speak for me. I am sorry but just watching the videos i feel there could be better players being shown. I am 100% for helping the community though with guides. Anyway, best of luck and i realized my previous post seemed scumbaggish

Sounds a lot better now and no worries i get your point
I used the leaderboard as a “proof” (even tho i know it is buggy) because i don’t really have a gameplay of ventari in tournaments on my computer which is really a shame but since i respect your opinion and i also think we can help others i will try to convince him to record footage while he is playing with the team..the problem is that his fps drop hard while using fraps (mine do as well but my computer is a lot better so i can still play)
Hm i don’t really use my threads etc as a self advertisment – what do i get from it? money? – no recognition ingame – maybe, which is nice but that’s really not what i aim for
in this post i am just promoting my solo q videos in which i am trying my best to explain everything to new players especially while using slow motion (working on every single video for about 3-4 hours in total (no joke))

Cheers;

Heheh that one was pretty hilarious! The build you’re using is extremely different from meta builds but you made it work well. You’ll like playing around with engineers more, there are a ton of builds waiting to be discovered.

Will watch when I get home ^^ I was one of the persons who asked to play Engineer but I must say, I didn’t enjoy it very much. It’s probably because you aren’t fluid with him (yet) and you were playing a really tanky build with little damage. This is not meant to bash you, just constructive criticism.

I totally see your point
I will try to get better and try a more teamfight oriented build
Also other classes than thief and mesmer are not really my best classes so i am more or lessing trolling around with them

Good videos. I’m quite aware this is solo q but it would be nice to hear more about how the team moves, and how you think the losing team could do better.

Any other tips on team play in solo q for players trying to work their way up the ladder would be appreciated.

Hopefully in the future we will see closer matches and it won’t put me up against the players in the top 500 ¬.¬
