New Video: "Slide"
Uhmm you are a really skilled mesmer I can tell. I do have one question though, I hope you don’t get offended. I watched every video you posted and it still surprises me how people don’t move around that much and eat a mirror blade burst to face.
I really struggle to land it in pvp especially against good thieves.

I only watched about 3 minutes, but 90% of them he engaged from stealth or with iSwap for immob for the burst. It’s not something that happens all the time, and is why you really only see incredibly heavily cherrypicked videos like this where he’s able to pop out just at the right moment and unload a burst from stealth.

Even with stealth, most people I face in pvp would either randomly dodge or use a skill that evades or invuln or stealth when they see me stealth. Again not to discredit the OP, but I just find it really surprising.

PvP and WvW are two completely different worlds. In WvW it is such a large battlefield that you can easily sneak up on people. Also, some people don’t know how to dodge :P
Regarding good thieves and good players in general, they know how to dodge and have experience fighting against shatter builds which is why it’s hard to hit them. In order to hit them with a burst one must be able to bait out their dodges and Invulns or hit them when they don’t expect it. Vashury has a great video detailing how to bait in addition to many other tips, I’ll post the link below:

Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

Hence my comment about heavily cherrypicking. For every perfect burst, there’s 10 that don’t work. Shatter montages are fun, but they’re not representative of normal gameplay.
