Neilyo #10 released on WCM

That is one hell of a rogue thx For posting it m8 Keep it up Peace =))

 

walks backwards, and times his stealth-cheap shot perfectly without
getting a tick in stealth is more mind-blowing to me then
vanish-immuming a fear (which is something everyone can do with the
required practice)

Because counting to 3 is difficult.

Nice arena clips but I miss the world pvp.

 

Vanishing incoming attacks/spells is quite basic stuff. Get yourself a focus frame and you're set. Amazing that people thing that this is something special? This stuff is pretty much required for you to do decently as a rogue in arenas.

Also, opening with a CS on a rogue in the example you gave is actually quite retarded. The best thing any of the 2 rogues (yes, even when he had the stealth buff DoT up) would be to just ranged sap the other guy. Of course, this proves that the orc rogue he fought was bad (he didn't spam sap while having Neilyo targeted).

I'm not saying that Neilyo is bad, I'm just saying that all the stuff I saw in the video is quite basic stuff, that is required for any rogue to do decently in arenas.

Also, don't get me started on the vanish-sap's, it's so incredibly situational that including shots of it is just retarded(making it seem like it's something he does/successfully pull off often). Usually you will have to blow CloS before vanishing(and thereby "wasting" it), also knowing the high failure rate of vanish, "wasting" clos and vanish(which is a snare/root/spellcast breaker) is a high price to pay for a low success rate of getting the actual sap in. The only time I feel that it's worth trying, is if you know that getting that sap in will mean a win, and not getting it in will mean a loss.

Edit: I can agree that it looks very nice in a movie, and can be put in for entertainment purposes - but that isn't the idea you get from watching this movie, you feel like he is trying to portray this as his actual playstyle.

 

Well, maybe I gave the wrong impression in my post.
Personally I found the mounting thing something i'll use next time in such a situation, instead of restealthing aswell and hope i'll catch him first (with or without preception, as with 0/31/30 you've got a few stealth-improving talents).
Obviously it isn't hard to pull of, it's just something i'm going to adjust in my own playing style.

 

No, neilyo's proboably the best rogue around, viral was pretty awesome too and nitrana's won all the tournaments he's played in but... show us another video with rogues pulling off the same stunts.

also, vanish is fine, he did it at the right time, he won the game, what more do you want ?
Even if he's been putting on a show / more effort than usual, it was still him playing.

 

Woooooosh!

If you were wondering, that's the sound of you completely missing the point of my comment.

 

Sounds like Hid was biased before he wrote his article. If you've played against Nielyo or watched his other 9 vids, that is his playstyle. -,-
