My PvP video will probably never come out for a few reasons.



 



1) I'm nowhere near the best rogue in my battlegroup.



2) My choice in music would probably upset the majority of the people who watched it.



3) I wouldn't get the type of feedback that I want.



 



Now that that's out of the way let me say that I'd love to make one, I really would, but I wouldn't be making it for the same reasons as Neilyo and everyone else. It wouldn't be a "Hey I'm 2600 rating look at me play" video. If I ever make a video it would be for one reason:



 



So that people could give me feedback on how I can become a better player.



 



I already know that my 32k honor kills is less than half of what high profile people normally have, and I already know that I haven't played nearly as many arena matches as I need to. However, even with all that when I enter a 2v2 match sometimes I find myself not knowing the best way to dispatch of the opposing team.



 



This season I have been doing 2v2 with Casus, a frost mage. He is used to doing 2v2 with a warlock named Tenko and they have so many games under their belt together that it makes it look like I haven't played any. I know the first step to getting better is to just play a **** ton of games with him, but even more than that if I were to release a movie then rogues who know what is going on would see things and say "Why did you do that?" or "Why did you try to kill X first?", and I feel that is what I need most to take my game to the next level.



 



I'm not gonna lie, I thought about just rolling a warrior, but I looked at that as the coward's way out. I want to play my rogue, and I want to succeed in arenas on my rogue. I'm not sure, maybe some good would come out of making a video, and maybe I would lose some respect, but I know when I need to ask for help, and this is that time. I can't take my game to the next level by myself.



 



That being said if you would still watch a video I made after reading this what would you like to see in it? What would you need to see in order to help tell me the little things I am doing incorrectly? I appreciate those who took the time to read this.

Rushdowns and control.  That's what makes rogue movies entertaining to hardcore rogue players.

Nah, technical play and perfection. That's what makes rogue movies entertaining to hardcore rogue players.

Technical play = boring cheesy restealthing all over.  Rushdowns are way more interesting.

Perfection is impossible in anything but math.  So I guess you're wrong on both counts, bummer man.  Better luck next post.

160,000 honor kills is not common at all.

No Virtua. 32k Is like Half of what the "average" good pvper has. Regardless, Honorable kills prove nothing. Alot of HK's means you usually play defense in AV, lewl.

85 games played is like the most I have on any of my teams so regardless I need more experience. I only mentioned HKs as a way to say I haven't PvP'd as much as most people.

If you're actually paying attention I was simply using it to state I haven't PvP'd as much as most people.

I learned that you should never make a pvp video for other people.

You should make for yourself first and foremost. Why? because even if it is good, there are always going to be people out there who will be unhappy with what you do.

I made a roaming 5v5 video back in the day before TBC came out (long before). It showed me locking down healers, draining their mana, and keeping them from getting any real heals off on their teammates. All things that hunters should do now in arenas. But because it didn't show any ZOMGBIGEFFINCRITS, people didn't like it.

That and I used to click my spells. But that's a period I've put behind me.


I say make it anyways dude. You obviously WANT to, the urge to do so will only build as time goes on.

Reroll warrior and you'll have a lot more fun in the bracket that matters SCRUB PVE ROGUE. You can 3v3 on your rogue with much more success and much more fun than a warrior though!
