@je ne suis rien Not a fan of Adam Sandler (too much yelling), but is that supposed to be an insult towards Jacob? I mean, sure, why not insult someone who has different sense of humor, seems only logical :P But if that wasn't trying to be some childish insult, then alrighty, no worries.
This class guide series is a complete breath of fresh air from the usual content we see for World of Warcraft. Even though I know half the stuff I'm still excited because of how well you're infusing comedy into your videos. Great job, I can't wait for more from you.
Mage was my first and favorite class in WoW. I used to hang out in neutral cities with guards on the PVP server I leveled on. I would cast Detect Magic on Horde priests. They would usually dispel it off of themselves. If I timed it right, I would cast Detect Magic a second time right before the Horde priest would Dispel Magic. This would cause my mage to become their target and lose Arcane Intellect or Dampen Magic. If that happened, the guards would kill the priest. Many laughs were had when this happened.
That sounds like a lot of fun. Can't really decide if I should play a mage or a roque. I guess I would like the mage better gameplay-wise, but I also like funny world pvp, where roques tend to shine.
@@Preacher_. I played Rogue but it wasn't for me. I like Mage and Paladin the most. But i quitted Classic anyway. I don't want to pay 13€ a month for a lazy implementation of an 15 year old game. Private Servers are better scripted than Classic and are available for free. I play on Warmane - Icecrone which is the most populated private server. If you're not disturbed by the fact that you can pay money for good gear, you should give it a try as well.
@@dunkelwelpling I actually played on Ascension WoW (NOT blizzlike) for a while before Classic released. I don't mind the $15 a month for what I'm able to get out of Classic. From my experience, private server players were hardcore minmaxers, and while that still happens in classic, especially on the main Servers (Herod, Faerlina, ect), I noticed it's much more similar to my retail vanilla experience in terms of people's skill level. On Bigglesworth Horde I actually feel like an above average player, where as on Ascension(a different, accelerated version of WoW that was built for min maxing) I struggled to even keep up with the meta. As far as playing old games I can't really complain. My current lineup of games I play are AoE2 DE, OSRS, and WoW Classic.
@@Preacher_. The sub you pay for OSRS is what i'd be ready to pay for Classic. And even then i would have a bad aftertaste, because i don't think Blizzard has earned it. Maybe when TBC will come out, Blizzard will provide different subs that are cheaper if you only pick one game. I have zero interest in Retail. I heard a lot of good things about OSRS and i don't mind the graphics but the Gameplay looks so boring. Can you explain how this keeps up your interest? I'm gonna buy AoE2 too when i'm finished with StarCraft II.
When he got to the part with spamming frostbolts with Guitar Hero meme I lost it haha. Amazing fun and good video. Yeah I know this vid is about 5 months old but still +1 :D
@Username OoOoh, using Whirlwind and Bloodthirst as they come off CD with OP(-50) & HS(+50) fillers. How intricate and complex!?! 🙃 Man oh man, if that wasn't enough you guys have to spam execute durring the execute phase!?!?! You must have to be a Master Tactician to figure that one out! ....... Our PvE isn't complicated my dude... There's some skill when it comes to survivability and mitigating raid wiping fuck ups, but that's not intrinsic to any class.
an Ad came on while watching this video and the opening line was "Your first camper is easy to tow." Actually, thought that was a point to this vid but just mostly ironic...would've applied to a Hunter as well. On another note, loving these videos. I don't play Classic but I have been playing since Vanilla and reliving some of the earlier builds is fascinating. Thanks for putting the time in
This video is sooo much better than the typical Vanilla class guide on RUclips. 90% of them are just some dude talking with generic footage saying "oh yah know, mages, frost build, can't go wrong". High quality content.
Mages blow in Naxx40 when the AoE DOTs do more than your max Health, so watch out for that - I didn't enjoy those times even though I was in the top content for the game; constantly hopin Ice Block was off CD, so I could survive a Trash Mob pull was only but so fun.. lol Mages have high survivability due to Ice Block, Mana Shield, Frost Shield, Cold Snap, Cone of Cold, Frost Nova, Frost Bolt and Blink. So they do nice damage, along w/bein able to survive big fights in PvE and PvP. They also bring Portals to the table for extra money, if you charge. I only had issues w/highly geared Warlocks pre-BC, since they're the anti-Caster Casters w/pets that can Spell Lock and/or Seduce you, while they spam DOTs and regular casts. It's difficult to burn through their large Health pool, while also losin all of your Buffs, Seduced, Spell Locked and/or gettin Feared. If they're not highly geared, then just Counterspell their Shadowbolt and win.
I usually dislike guides that try to be all funny, but your humor is on point while you still give all the necessary information about the class. That tipsout voice got me rolling :*D Good job, keep it up :)
What i always asked myself: Why aren't Elemental-Mages going for Frost and Fireshield-Reflector in Talent trees? In Frost you could easily take the 20% dmg bonus and one out of frostbolt/frostbite to get the 2points there and take some in fire out and get the 2 there. It's a coinflip, but it's hella rewarding and much better in terms of defensives, since you dont have ice barrier. Reflecting an Immolate oder Fireblast often determines the outcome of the Duel. I always take those 2, combined with Engineering trinkets you are basically immortal
This is actually a good guide. Comming from some1 who has never touched wow in my life i can get a good understanding of what mages do. Also saw the warrior guide. Havent seen the others but from these 2 ill make a mage first then warrior
awesome video man. I hope people start making videos with skits like back then again and also making pvp vids and how to do's with 009 soundtrack and metal for pvp. btw make a hunter vanilla flavor vid!
Thanks for the shout out man, the video turned out great i just shared it on stream. Also told them to come sub to your channel ! Thanks bro good stuff!
Mage is a great beginner class due to it's simple gameplay and easy to understand concept. You'll also make decent money with portals and since you're a pure DPS class you won't have any issues farming for mats at end game. Highly recommended for any new players out there!
I am new to WoW, played it a little in BFA, got to level 80, but can not wait for classic, because there will be less spells and stuff like that, can not decide what to do either mage or a warrior, horde :D what would you recommend, thanks :D
Sooooooo.. Which class do you wanna see next, bros?
Platinum WoW Hunter next pls!
Hunter weapon!
Hunter
HArdly any rogue guides at all from anyone outside the levelling guide, go for Rogue
HUNTER MY BOY
The Tips voice over on the vending machine has me rolling omg
LMAO !!!! hey whatsup guyyyyys
KaO Gaming dito dude, i couldn’t stop laughing.
Same XD never laughed so much over a classic video
Same here roflmao
got me too
Lol that TipsOut shit got me..
Frost bolt leveling? No, no, no, let me introduce you to my friend- the Wand.
Dude! This is actually pretty entertaining/funny. Not many vanilla WoW youtubers have a sense of humour.
True, they always seem to have a sense of salt though

I don’t know why but I died laughing when the gnome said wow! At the fire spec two moves lmao
"Hey what's up guy-"
Was an absolute pleasure being on. Sub to platinum if you haven't. As you can tell, he is one talented fellow!
Loved the cameo :)
The russian " Vy khotite pichshu ili vodu" from the google translator on the wending machine absolutely killed me

JIMMY GOT GANKED OUTSIDE!!
You are my favorite vanilla youtuber I love you
I never comment on youtube videos, but the production quality and attention to detail in your videos is superb!
When he got to the part with spamming frostbolts with Guitar Hero meme I lost it haha. Amazing fun and good video. Yeah I know this vid is about 5 months old but still +1 :D
YEEES!
The Frostbolt spam reminded me of that Resto Druid PvP video that was all just Moonfire. 10/10
but well its the reality since frostmage literally has one dmg spell 😂
The intro felt like old school machinima, the tips part killed me. Sweet video dude.
It's honestly so easy to see that you put a lot of effort and love into these videos. Keep up the amazing job, it doesn't go unnoticed.
This community is so dope. You guys make me feel all warm inside 👉 ❤️
r u 12?
see how you feel 6 months from now
W..Warm? OwO??
@@S2KDAN101 hello, 4 years late but it's feeling great
I lost it when Jimmy got ganked outside 😂
0:50 i'm sold!
"Dozens upon dozens of abilities in their toolkit". Almost exclusively spams frostbolt for raiding.
Vaulkor raiding might just aswell be an npc handing out gear weekly though
That's pretty much every dps class my dude.
Mages have a ridiculous toolkit when it comes to pvp.
Their is more to the game than raiding though, and like others said, most classes raising rotations are pretty boring while raiding in Classic.
@Username OoOoh, using Whirlwind and Bloodthirst as they come off CD with OP(-50) & HS(+50) fillers. How intricate and complex!?! 🙃
Man oh man, if that wasn't enough you guys have to spam execute durring the execute phase!?!?! You must have to be a Master Tactician to figure that one out!

Our PvE isn't complicated my dude... There's some skill when it comes to survivability and mitigating raid wiping fuck ups, but that's not intrinsic to any class.
@2:45 "Lots of COMPITION" lmao
yeah saw that too...
Hahaha, the Fist of the North Star kung-fu noises at 0:27, amazing
Had a lot of fun wailing into the mic. 10/10 would voice act again. And yes the Tips part fucking floored me
The production valute of these guide is top notch Hahah
''That means having lots of pee bottles'' i fucking lost it, Mitch Jones the moda fukin law baby

I'm sure someone's mentioned it by now but there's a typo at the end for Ceiling*
Totally lost it on the entry montage, you earned another subscriber.
I leveled a rogue to 20 and then a mage to 35 on Light's Hope. I am really excited to main a mage in classic!
This video is sooo much better than the typical Vanilla class guide on RUclips. 90% of them are just some dude talking with generic footage saying "oh yah know, mages, frost build, can't go wrong". High quality content.
Oh boy! Who else can't wait to get their hands on the disgusting blood vine set?
Lol love the dragon force pop in music for frost bolt
Love it! I main a mage in retail which has definetly lost it's usefulness compaired to back then although frost is still a cc monster.
1:36 Lol xD
Very well made video, very interesting and funny.
When that gnome jumped out at 4:15 lmfaoo your videos are great
Used to play a mage for ten years (2006-2016) and the part with vending machine made me chuckle, really.
LMAO nice Jimmy got ganked outside reference
Hahah.. that guitarr hero scene is so funny. And your editing overall is damn great. 😊👍
0:27 JIMMY GOT GANKED OUTSIDE!
"KITTING ABILLTIES"
Amazon video man ! Just started a mage on a private server to prepare for Classic, it's fun as hell
I fucking hate any content from Tips at this point, but that vending machine blip had me fucking rolling.
Platinum, you are really funny! It always makes me want to see more of your videos.
great editing and love the humor!! LOVE IT!
5:50 had me laughing xD
I musta seen a hundred of these in anticipation but God damn, did this have me rolling over. keep up the golden work!
You're a legend Platinum, also loved your interview with Kargoz and Defcamp! Will you be streaming upon release by any chance?
You're going to make it big on RUclips if you keep this up 👌 actually funny and informative.
i fuckin died at the t1/t2 rogues fast punchin jimmy at brm
Not gonna lie, the bit at 3.20 absolutely killed me! xD
Haven't laughed so hard in a looong time.

Your vids are very well done dude keep up the amazing work. Not even that big of a WoW player but I remember Classic these videos are perfect.
Pom>pyro was just awesome for open world pvp. It was fun in BGs, but it really shined in hillsbrad
I usually dislike guides that try to be all funny, but your humor is on point while you still give all the necessary information about the class. That tipsout voice got me rolling :*D
Good job, keep it up :)
Dude, you are so funny x) bungie watching your class previews just because you make me laugh.. ty man!
8:55 high skill celling in pvp is great 👍🤭
Oh and lol fire much more fun 😁
Great guide as always you just forgot one little thing for PvP as palm pyro
You must be listening to big blue dress by Cranius while playing it.

I just stumbled by your channel and holy crap.... your videos are insanely high quality! and hilarious!

Reflecting an Immolate oder Fireblast often determines the outcome of the Duel.
I always take those 2, combined with Engineering trinkets you are basically immortal
I died at the Fist of the North Star sound effect
Such creative and extremely well executed informative vid. Ty!
Dude, you make such a amazing content. Why the hell do you have only ~3k subs? Well you'll surely get +1 from me ❤️
Anyone else noticed it was Baise's "Wooooooow"?
This is actually a good guide. Comming from some1 who has never touched wow in my life i can get a good understanding of what mages do. Also saw the warrior guide. Havent seen the others but from these 2 ill make a mage first then warrior
your videos are so well done bro
There is only 1 mage. The fire mage.
these are the best classic videos on youtube
For leveling up, what is the order for talents you would recommend? When to stop in Frost to quickly get the two in Arcane?
I remember binding my spell rotation to a single macro once. Was fun. For 2 minutes.
awesome video man. I hope people start making videos with skits like back then again and also making pvp vids and how to do's with 009 soundtrack and metal for pvp. btw make a hunter vanilla flavor vid!
i damn near passed out from laughter when he started on the how to do pve rotations for mages
Thanks for the shout out man, the video turned out great i just shared it on stream. Also told them to come sub to your channel ! Thanks bro good stuff!
Even more hilarious and I'm now subscribed! Quality shat roight here
Excellent video editing!!!
