Johnaggro #1 haters hate

ya i no,its there mind set and no matter what video u do if its the best thing on aj,they will have shit to say about it asits all ready in there mind to hate

I wasn't hating, just as someone else pointed out there's no point trying to make tutorial videos when you're not the best (or anywhere near). I'm not saying you're any better or worse than me, but if I wanted to learn how to play a Paladin I'd look up better players than some random 2400 pala playing a melee cleave.

By all means create videos showing some cool games you had, but don't pretend that people should be learning something from you pressing your blind key, overlapping CC and having poor coordination with your team.

Also, in your video you 'teach' people to cast rep into someone and then HoJ them after. Surely it's always better to HoJ first and then Rep? That way your Rep cast can't get LoS'd / Kicked / Sacced by the Paladin. You've got poor coordination, communication and awareness, people shouldn't be learning from your bad habits.

Have to agree with Bieber here. What you're doing is a nice gesture if your true intentions are really to help people out, but unfortunately, if anyone actually takes your advice they'd be picking up on some pretty bad habits. There are a couple of great streams for Holy Paladins like Zilea/Flubbah, who are obviously better to learn from if just starting out. Like someone else said it's cool if you wanna make some vids showing your games, but being boosted by Braindeadly and then calling your vids "High rated Holy Paladin Tutorials" is bound to get you some hate.

Personally I think the AJ forums would prefer to see the numerous videos of you whining about that greek mage who kicked you out of a 2.2 5's team and then trolled you about it. He used to scream your name in a weird Irish/Scottish accent every time he solo'd a Holy Pala in 3's, was quite amusing.

thats not true, we dont really hate on good videos, you just posted a paladin "guide" wherein the content is not just paladin being played poorly but the game in general. less people would hate if you were saying "these are my first pvp clips plz give pointers" but instead you have posted "I am a 2400 paladin here to teach you how to play".

these are actually just terrible when used as a "guide", and its tough to even understand how you could watch these clips and decide that you should use them as an example of good play. you actually play so slow that you miss a ton of gcds for no reason which is absurd because that means your effective apm must be less than 40. the fact that you suggest that you need to backpedal in order to look at the screen is just retarded as well, and suggests that you dont even know how to control your character properly.

but hey take it in stride re watch your videos and use it as a chance to improve.

you are 2400 playing this bad imagine how high rated you will get playing properly!

Watching a Paladin heal is probably the most boring perspective in the game, and that's coming from somebody who heals as a Paladin.  I think healers in general just aren't as much fun to watch.

That said, I noticed some of the same things the others noticed...but I don't think it's that big of a deal.  Backpedaling randomly when you're healing someone doesn't really affect anything, and if you aren't comfortable using 3 different binds for everything you do then you shouldn't do it.

I tried for the longest time to get used to having 3 different buttons that do the same thing, only to different targets. I could never get used to it.  Would it be slightly faster to have 3 different binds?  Possibly, but it never was for me.

The truth is that this website is not friendly to people who create content for WoW.  It used to be that there were new written and video guides coming out weekly for different classes/specs, now somebody posts something like this and it's instantly critiqued by people who won't have access next season.

Like this guy above me.  Your third post after getting access was "SO BAD LOL" directed at somebody rated 400 points higher than you.
