So here it is after a few months n weeks I've scraped up enough to what I think is a pretty damn good pvp vid. Before you watch though, here is some stuff to consider... I chose this music for me, so if you don't like it then please mute it or just don't watch it, there's not many BG scenes (if Any) because it's Fin boring, there's no arena clips (making a sep vid), and editing; this isn't a storyline vid for the most part (I threw in a tad) this is a pvp vid not a RP pvp vid, the editing in her eis ok, but you won't see anything too fancy.

At the beginning I start off clicking because my Fin fingers were hurting to GD bad from playing 2 days straight (Obsession?) Only about the 1st 4 clips though and then it picks up. So bear them and it's GG the rest of the way.

Please don't view me as 1 of the big names right now (Ming, Neilyo, & others). I am not them, I am Daghost. I don't compare myself to either 1 of them, but I do respect them don't get me wrong they are both well established. View me as Daghost. Thank You.

So here it is...

Just DL it for best quality. If you watch it streamed and say that the quality is terrible, I'll come to your house and beat your head against your computer and lash you w/ your mouse coord :P

Runtime is about 41mins.

Enjoy everybody and again...

FLAME ON!

If the intro wasnt 45 minutes long in itself I would have watched the rest of it.

I'm a real fan of PvP videos and I tend to love watching them, but this has got to be the most boring PvP video I ever watched. I even skipped through your entire little into, but I could only watch bits and pieces of the rest before I gave up. I'm sorry to say that this is the 2nd worst video I've seen. If you care to know, the worst video I've seen is a rogue showing off his PvE skills in scholo while using sinister strike with a dagger.

Now, let me point out what I didn't enjoy so that hopefully you can come back and make a good video next time. First of all, whatever UI you want is fine, but why have a hub if you have health bars, anyway? It's redundant and clutters your UI, making the video just that much more unpleasant to watch. You can barely even tell how much health/mana your opponent has with the hub you're using. There are actual real hubs with much better lines that can replace health bars, but what you use is purely aesthetic and serves no real function but to clutter the focal point of your UI.

Second, I don't want to see a paladin PvEing and then you ganking him. World PvP tends to be pretty bad as it is, since the vest majority of players are under geared amateurs with 1300 ratings; however, videos that do include world PvP tend to at least seek out quality opponents or show some 1v3 scenes. You on the other hand attacked this random paladin, who later got attacked by a mob, and then you waited for him to finish a mob, and then killed him. Who wants to see that, really? Out of all the world pvp you had, most of it bad, at the very least you could have cut out that one scene.

Third, as I alluded to slightly previously, do /inspect on your opponents and show us their gear and arena rating. If you're fighting a horde player, armory him and add a little footnote about his gear and rating. I know you hate doing that because then we'll be asking you why you're playing against 1300 rating players, but trust me, it's already painfully obvious that many of the people you dueled couldn't pvp their way out of a paper bag. Give the viewer some reference point so we know your fights aren't equivalently to a level 70 killing lowbies at Hillsbrad.

Hope that helps. Good luck on your next video! :D

This video really didn't impress.

You clicked in some parts. All the people you dueled (aside from that female human mage) were bad. You decided to cut out the ending of really close fights (with bad people) that you couldn't tell who won. Also, you'd make stupid comments in chat that would make me facepalm while I would watch.

4/10

I clicked at the beginning and I explained why. The cutouts weren't to show me losing or winning, it was the transitions, I played them too fast so it got cutout. If you're wondering I didn't lose. I showed the duels I lost. And my comments... eh... w/e that's me no denying there.

I'll improve next time around. That's a promise to all. Despite the fact you can careless.

Rofl I wasn't ganking that kid. It started off me ganking some hunter who wasn't flagged (I was) and I beat him to some herbs. He decides to flag up n trap me and I rock him for about an hr b4 he decides to call help. Well he called a warlock and the prot paladin you see there (hence why the horde lock you seen was there) to come help him. Well after about an hr of 3v2 they got bored and left their paladin there to die and wait to deflag b4 he rezzes. B4 I was leaving the paladin /dueled me. During the coarse of the duel he aggroed the mob. I let him kill it and then went on w/ the duel. I was kind of generous not to get him down to X% and let the mob kill him and let him take durab. That's how that scene went.

Thx for the comments though and sry if I just crit you w/ a wall of text.

That's just it, though. You included every scene you filmed, even if it was horrible. All the good PvP videos only include good PvP scenes.

The cutouts weren't to show me losing or winning, it was the transitions, I played them too fast so it got cutout.
This just shows that you didn't care enough about, what is in your opinion a great PvP video, to spend an extra two seconds editting it.

If you're wondering I didn't lose. I showed the duels I lost.
Then fight better people. No offense, but no one you fought was very good. You shouldn't have included 95% of your video.

I'll improve next time around. That's a promise to all.
I hope so.

Can't argue w/ you 1 bit. Hopefully in my next vid, my guild will have Illidan and I'll be able to go away from 19/42 for pvp and utilize 5/31/25 or maybe I'll entertain you w/ some Mutilate.

But as for the amount of competent players, idk how I will increase that w/o puttin in Shitty BGs scenes because i xfered to Thrall (PvE) 4 months ago because I thought being in a BT guild and killing Illidan would overcome my love for pvp (man that was RPish). I guess I'll fill my next 1 w/ all 1v2 arena n 1v3 arena and possibly find a way to encourage the people on thrall to take a crack at me 1v2 n 1v3.

Thx for the comments n Keep em comings. Going to bed though G*nite

P.S. Sry it wasn't enjoyable

You might have had better luck if you posted this on the general forum instead of here. Maybe they wouldn't notice how much your opponents suck.

Bad idea.

If you can 1v2/1v3, those 2/3 would not be competant.

Guess that's a reprucussion of being on a pve server. I shoulda stayed on CR. Maybe you would have appreciated the lvl of play there. Convince blizz to let me go back or hell go to tichondrius. Just because my opponents weren't great doesn't define me as bad; just my video lol

No.

You said that you were going to do 1v2/1v3s and put them in your video. My biggest complaint was lack of skilled players. If you were to actually win in a 1v2 or a 1v3, those players you fought would definitely be horrible.
