    This was actually really nice to see. A reaction video that isn't just someone smirking every 5 minutes but actually expanding on the content being shown as an analysis + compliment to a video to share more knowledge. If you can increase the video volume a bit next time that'd be nice. If you can do "reactions" (more analyses) like this, I'd be glad to see them!

      If possible I’d prefer it to encourage me to watch the original. With a bit more effort b4nny could have said practically everything he wanted to say, more concisely considering he’d have more time to sort out his thoughts, without having to play the video in it’s entirety, yes pausing and adding on his own knowledge, but ultimately consuming the entire video in his own.

    One of the most underrated elements of scout is flexibility. Too often do scouts limit themselves to their role as flank or pocket scout. Sometimes as a pocket scout you gotta go behind, backcap, push flanks, take 1v1s, and even cap to let your flank scout go forward if hes already in position. And sometimes as flank scout you just gotta take the beam, take the ubers, play with your combo and be the fragging class that you are.

      @tannietf2 2 года назад +7

      exactly what i wanted and always try to do. too bad so many people are so concrete in their roles like pre gunboats pocket and roamer type shit. often times my flank scout is already in position and/or healthier, so i told him to go forward with the combo when i stay back and cap.

    • @burkshomemadememes
      @burkshomemadememes 2 года назад +5

      Yeah I think that a lot of ppl (other than scouts) tie themselves down because of their role and avoid being creative.
      There’s times a risky or unorthodox play will pay off, just make sure you have a reasoning rather than running head in and hope for the best

    Amazing breakdown by you and Arekk, a lot of the things here you pick up and learn while playing the game and it's nice to have content that goes over things that would take a while to learn. It's important to point out that everything you can learn here, you can apply to any other game to instantly improve and stay above the competition.
    It's crazy how TF2 a game that hasn't really changed in ages can train you to pretty much dominate in any other pvp game, new and old. TF2 is probably the best game to learn, and practice game-sense.

      I guess it’s that arekk isn’t that flashy as a scout. I think it’s kinda similar to blaze that you look at his logs and you’re like “how tf, he went 8 and 18 on soldier with below 200dpm!”. Arekk dm is still good, but I think his main trait is that he really knows how the game works
