I love how Cammy just says the quiet part out loud. “Let me know in the comments how to pronounce this for audience retention or whatever.” One of a kind this guy. 😂
It's so impressive seeing you get comfortable with controller already, when you've been practicing for... I don't know, two weeks? It's criminal how efficient and simple you make things work, keep up the fantastic work Cam. :)
yeah, we can't forget that he was started on controller for over 3 years and then some, while the PC port didn't come out. the practice is important, but he isn't starting fresh
I personally pronounce it "Garfieldchin Holodook" Btw your controller gameplay/commentary was great, can't wait to see what you've got for us in the future. Your builds never ceqase to amaze.
It's pronounced ˈdʒɜːrˌfɔː(l)kən , like dj-e-r-falkon. But g-i-r pronounciation may also be valid considering the word's etymology - it may derive from the old Germanic or Greek languages
Damn Cam, Animorphs? Makes me wonder how much of your audience knows what that is. Also, the Rat King taketh lives, the Rat King giveth sweet life nectar and invis. Honestly can't ask for more.
The minute I turned my brain off of “slay to win” mode in control this season, I felt a complete 180 in my games. Playing to stay alive, teamshot, and hold map control made a huge difference, and I can already feel it the matchmaking composition. Multiple people friending me just to yell at me for “camping” after they lose, but I’ve been starting to see familiar names in matches, and it’s not those players, so SBMM is working to a degree.
Yeah I the feeling a lot of people are annoyed at SBMM because it’s matched them against players who are better than them because up until now they’ve mostly just played against scrubs which inflated their stats (and egos). As time goes on they’ll either get better or start getting matched against players who genuinely match their skill.
Great throwback for the thumbnail! I managed to get through 30+ of the books in the series as a kid... Rat King + snipe on controller is one of my favorites! I haven't used it for months though and tried yesterday and absolutely sucked. I main MnK for Destiny and controller for Apex and it's crazy how in either game, swapping to the other input makes me feel so incompetent.
Used to own the whole series, including the board game, the stand-alones, and the VHS of the TV series. 100% regret leaving it when I moved out of a toxic family member's house tho
Good video mate, much appreciated. Must be difficult in SBMM at your level to try new things such as inputs, loadouts etc to have a winning game whilst learning them, but I appreciate your positive take on this.
Regarding that line you had about things being "worth it" if you have some fun with something that takes a bit to get the ball rolling really stuck with me as someone who for an embarrassingly long time tried to force that build you had of being an info loop with Bottom Tree Nightstalker and Khepri's Sting. It was a unique enough way to view games on that subclass and felt rewarding when you could get eyes on people and plan your moves accordingly. Sucks how Combat Provision and Heart of Pack didn't transfer over to Void 3.0
I like that Cammy doesn't like SBMM, but he's willing to take it in stride for the overall health of the community. You did great, and I'm going to keep taking notes 👌
Cammy I know the hunter is best at invisibility, but you should really try this on shadebinder. The stasis rift + melee combined with invis is just so cheesy and if you use it with a disruption break gl you can get easy setups for the rat king. Would really love to see you use a build using rat king and shadebinder, truly the rat bastard build. I think invis on warlock/titan is just so unexpected for most players.
Yo Cam, definitely enjoy the more open commentary type videos. It’s always nice to get tips from a top tier player or what you’re thinking while playing, keep it up!
I was literally just running this exact build ! One thing I was messing around with is the frozen orbit I tried a truth teller instead and I’d say it’s a little better for getting kills with the rat king
We should start documenting, collaborating on the collection of discords that are dedicated to XYZ angles. I've already started one a while ago documenting all the texture, security cameras, pipes, rocks, ropes you can stand on to create unexpected angles. Having another discord dedicated to GL angles would be another amazing resource.
I feel the rank bump vs decay is accurate. Unfortunately I'm at the top of 1 and bottom of the next, and unless I absolutely full send then I'm constantly cycling between giga-chad and giga-chode.
Memes aside, I remember vaguely the Animorphs Books when I was a tiny child. I always thought the covers were so cool...don't remember a dang thing I read though. And thanks for the long video, Cam.
Loving the live commentaries Cam! Thanks for always putting out fantastic content! Would be curious to hear your thoughts about the viability of arcstrider and blink in the current meta.
I think it’s pronounced “please be a quick lost sector this rotation” I’d also accept “Herbur da gurgur… da falcon” I cannot recall a video that you didn’t do well in. But as an “in it for the pinnacle” player, I’d appreciate a more in depth explainer on radar manip. Might need a second camera angle though, TBH. That’d really help explain it intuitively IMO.
Curious how you feel about controller again. I remember your take on input usage being incredibly based, but like what sensitivity are you liking the most, and if you've tried the ADS modifier.
Got my Gyrfalcons Hauberk the other day, just infused a Ratking up to power, the stoke is high! That said, playing Shotgun x Lemon will be disgusting with the Gyrfalcons Perk! Unfortunately the stat roll i got wasn't the best but with a little tinkering I managed to get 100 Mobility, 60-70ish Strength & somewhere around 70 Recovery. The Season Pass Armour looks like it's gunna be a massive help for my Gyrfalcons Build though so I'm happy with that! Plus, with the right Shader? The Pirate Aesthetics are just SPOT on! No reasons why I'd be stoked with that lol.
Have you been using Fighting Lion as of recent? It feels pretty ok now that the nerf has been reworked, and now with infinite ammo, it's super fun in control.
Glad to see you playing rat king. I personally pair it with sixth coyote to have invisibility on maximum uptime. It allows a shitter like me to beat my friends who were good enough to do paid trials carries.
Cammy whats your dodge bind on controller? I got a controller w 4 paddles, each one mapped to one of the face buttons and my dodge is binded to double clicking the right stick. i wanna change it to circle but idk what id put my uncharged melee to
I dont know about your lobbys, but last night, i had a lot of fun running this loadout with a harmony bow, btw harmony+gyrfalcon deals 209(season of the lost bow)
i would love to see a crucible gamemode that doesn't end, has no Skmm, and acts like TF2's casual mode where everyone can duke it out silly or serious.
Re: Your thoughts on sbmm, I much prefer watching competitive matches. Watching Man City stomp Grindleford Rovers 11 in the FA cup fourth round might be entertaining every now and then, but the Champions League final is one of the most viewed events of every year because it’s the best of the best facing off. The fact that it’s close and every player has to play to the best of their abilities is precisely what makes it so enthralling.
In terms of the 1 2 punch shotty, what shotty did you use last season? Wastelander being a lightweight frame might do just little enough damage that you aren't getting the kills anymore
Not sure if you read these Cam, but what build is the easiest to master for end game trials and equally viable. I only really play hunter or warlock. Fairly average pvp player here. I’m going to guess it’s invis hunter build for survivability ?
I love how Cammy just says the quiet part out loud. “Let me know in the comments how to pronounce this for audience retention or whatever.” One of a kind this guy. 😂
"Ya know, Cammy is something of a scientist himself."
-Norman Osborn (probably)
Just wanna say the stat distribution on your armor is insanely satisfying
It's so impressive seeing you get comfortable with controller already, when you've been practicing for... I don't know, two weeks? It's criminal how efficient and simple you make things work, keep up the fantastic work Cam. :)
don't forget that he started on controller
all he has to do is warm up his muscle memory. Not to undermine his efforts mind you.
yeah, we can't forget that he was started on controller for over 3 years and then some, while the PC port didn't come out. the practice is important, but he isn't starting fresh
Diiiiirida
3 days. Completely new binds. New sens. New deadzones.
I personally pronounce it "Garfieldchin Holodook"
Btw your controller gameplay/commentary was great, can't wait to see what you've got for us in the future. Your builds never ceqase to amaze.
It's pronounced ˈdʒɜːrˌfɔː(l)kən , like dj-e-r-falkon. But g-i-r pronounciation may also be valid considering the word's etymology - it may derive from the old Germanic or Greek languages
Yes! Audience Retention!
Okay that’s great but how do I say it
@@tavianmelvin496 dj-e-r falcon. Soft g like Giant, with the ur sound from nurse.
I love seeing IPA in the wild! I'm also commenting for audience retention or whatever.
Also are you sure it's not /fæːlkən/ instead of /fɔːlkən/? Miɡht be dialectical differences but I've never heard it pronounced with an ɔ
Damn Cam, Animorphs? Makes me wonder how much of your audience knows what that is.
Also, the Rat King taketh lives, the Rat King giveth sweet life nectar and invis. Honestly can't ask for more.

bro it’s control. dont gotta be coming up with strategies to win, that shit is for losers
I saw rat kind and said “BROTHER!!!”
6 man rat swarm time
I’m late to this conversation but…
Squeak Squeak!
Great throwback for the thumbnail! I managed to get through 30+ of the books in the series as a kid...
Rat King + snipe on controller is one of my favorites! I haven't used it for months though and tried yesterday and absolutely sucked. I main MnK for Destiny and controller for Apex and it's crazy how in either game, swapping to the other input makes me feel so incompetent.
Used to own the whole series, including the board game, the stand-alones, and the VHS of the TV series. 100% regret leaving it when I moved out of a toxic family member's house tho
Already at this level of competency with controller?? Nice! Love seeing the Rat King in crucible.
rat king is actually my most used pvp weapon ever lol
This is a phenomenal video, one of the best D2 pvp videos I've seen. I'm excited to see more videos in this vein from you.
Good video mate, much appreciated. Must be difficult in SBMM at your level to try new things such as inputs, loadouts etc to have a winning game whilst learning them, but I appreciate your positive take on this.
God I love seeing rat king in pvp I need to get back to using it again
I used it last week and it was great, I was on titan without the chest armor too. Give it a try
Regarding that line you had about things being "worth it" if you have some fun with something that takes a bit to get the ball rolling really stuck with me as someone who for an embarrassingly long time tried to force that build you had of being an info loop with Bottom Tree Nightstalker and Khepri's Sting.

Sucks how Combat Provision and Heart of Pack didn't transfer over to Void 3.0
love ur resilience when it comes to playing these matches. lately pvp just been really jarring
That shot at 1:35 made me choke on my soup.
My goodness gracious me that was incredibly spicy and I ain't talkin' about the soup!
"You know....I'm something of a scientist myself" LOVE IT! 🤣
I like that Cammy doesn't like SBMM, but he's willing to take it in stride for the overall health of the community. You did great, and I'm going to keep taking notes 👌

As a controller player I am enjoying watching your decision making process and positioning
Wow that thumbnail was a memory unlock. Great video as always
That thumbnail sent me decades backwards in time.
I was literally just running this exact build ! One thing I was messing around with is the frozen orbit I tried a truth teller instead and I’d say it’s a little better for getting kills with the rat king
Animorphs in the thumbnail that's a throwback. I read all the books.
4:25 the tarrabah actually just shot you straight through the stairs for like the whole stream of bullets
the dude shooting through the stairs at 4:30 was both hilarious and sad
We should start documenting, collaborating on the collection of discords that are dedicated to XYZ angles. I've already started one a while ago documenting all the texture, security cameras, pipes, rocks, ropes you can stand on to create unexpected angles.

Cam how would you feel about using defience of Yasmin with firefly and chromatic fire as a makeshift cloudstrike freeing up the exotic slot
I feel the rank bump vs decay is accurate. Unfortunately I'm at the top of 1 and bottom of the next, and unless I absolutely full send then I'm constantly cycling between giga-chad and giga-chode.
What I took away from this video is to not panic when getting triple capped in close games. Take as much time as you can
Memes aside, I remember vaguely the Animorphs Books when I was a tiny child. I always thought the covers were so cool...don't remember a dang thing I read though.
And thanks for the long video, Cam.
Cammy out of context "enhanced hipfire grip"
Halloween sniper? Hell yeah, time for spooky snipes
The even stat distribution is so satisfying
Loving the live commentaries Cam! Thanks for always putting out fantastic content! Would be curious to hear your thoughts about the viability of arcstrider and blink in the current meta.
The Animorphs button got me😂
I think it’s pronounced “please be a quick lost sector this rotation”
I’d also accept
“Herbur da gurgur… da falcon”
I cannot recall a video that you didn’t do well in.
But as an “in it for the pinnacle” player, I’d appreciate a more in depth explainer on radar manip. Might need a second camera angle though, TBH. That’d really help explain it intuitively IMO.
cammy is that type of fella to say 'btw i am dogshit at controller' then topfrag all the games he is in
The throwback on the anamorph title
Just call them the “Garfunkels”
Nah that thumbnail describes hunters way too accurately 😂
Btw If you remember those books series you're a real 90s veteran
These types of videos help man ty
The Gyrfalcon ,with a G sound😋
They’re the largest falcon species and live in the arctic . Pretty bad ass raptor✨❄️
24:48 correct pronunciation right there
Curious how you feel about controller again. I remember your take on input usage being incredibly based, but like what sensitivity are you liking the most, and if you've tried the ADS modifier.
The animorph thumbnail is hilarious
4:26 Tarrabah shot through the stairs 😨
9:58 Cammy got bars
So cool to see controller play from you! Looking forward to learning cool stuff with you.
Got my Gyrfalcons Hauberk the other day, just infused a Ratking up to power, the stoke is high!
That said, playing Shotgun x Lemon will be disgusting with the Gyrfalcons Perk!

its pronounced Gyrfalcon👍
Would love a resource video that says the top 1-2 zones for each map for winning control. Some maps are obvious, but others are less so.
I have similar views of SBMM as a top 5% player on console. If it's healthier for the game overall, I accept SBMM.
I feel like if he missed that no-scope this wouldn't be put on youtube
Nice to see some rat king gameplay CammyCrimes
The salty spittoon Lmfao, yeah sounds about right
Have you been using Fighting Lion as of recent? It feels pretty ok now that the nerf has been reworked, and now with infinite ammo, it's super fun in control.
Whenever I watch a cammy cakes video, I pray for the enemy team
Not gonna lie love the Animorphs thumbnail
You know, I'm something of a scientist myself
Cammy what do you think abut the hype on Boudica c ? I think lonesome is better overall
“Xbox….Probly gonna have better connections,” 😂
was in the stream yesterday and that stat distribution is nutty
Daaaamn. Those stat splits though👀
I love these morning uploads
Glad ur back to your morning uploads
Glad to see you playing rat king. I personally pair it with sixth coyote to have invisibility on maximum uptime. It allows a shitter like me to beat my friends who were good enough to do paid trials carries.
My loadout tends to be crimson
at king and slug shotty/sniper
what made u decide to play some controller ? just for fun or a new thing ?
Cammy whats your dodge bind on controller? I got a controller w 4 paddles, each one mapped to one of the face buttons and my dodge is binded to double clicking the right stick. i wanna change it to circle but idk what id put my uncharged melee to
I dont know about your lobbys, but last night, i had a lot of fun running this loadout with a harmony bow, btw harmony+gyrfalcon deals 209(season of the lost bow)
If your aim is shit, what would mine be called? I guess non existent
gotta love 1 shot body shot
Controller gameplay slapping already. These vids making me grind control too, and goddamn is it a grind.
Thanks for the video glhf
Those are the most beautiful stats I've ever seen
i would love to see a crucible gamemode that doesn't end, has no Skmm, and acts like TF2's casual mode where everyone can duke it out silly or serious.
Re: Your thoughts on sbmm, I much prefer watching competitive matches.

all of this is true but grindleford rovers would absolutely stomp city
very well said in the end cammy!
Puppy dog ceiling flyer😊
thumbnail is gold
Cammy. EVERYONE sucks at controller which is why you're so good on m&k.
Damn with the throwback
Cammy’s armor stats are beautiful
The greatest thumbnail on RUclipsdotcom
would high impact reserves on sniper plus gyrfalcons be a one shot body
+1000 for animorphs thumbnail
A disruption break GL goes hard with rat king.
Guyrah-falcon Haul-berk, so ye, just have the phonetics
In terms of the 1 2 punch shotty, what shotty did you use last season? Wastelander being a lightweight frame might do just little enough damage that you aren't getting the kills anymore
I believe he was using the hakke Raghnild-D, and used it for mainpy shutting down bubbles
something, something, fuck the algorithm, give this man MONEY
i was watching this like…. wait oh fs this is controller with that slow 180 and the heaviest looking drag scope i’ve ever seen.
"jrr-fla-quon" fr fr
"He got me; he never peaked"
I kind of hate that this sentence is often relevant
Could you put up a guide on your controller settings, dead zones and such?
Is rift SBMM? I've heard some people saying that it's a decent play for "Social" fun stuff now.
Not sure if you read these Cam, but what build is the easiest to master for end game trials and equally viable. I only really play hunter or warlock. Fairly average pvp player here. I’m going to guess it’s invis hunter build for survivability ?
Watch his Meta at a glance video.
He correctly defines Meta as "Most Effective Tactic" and it's generally pretty easy. He goes over all 3 classes
Make a gameplay video on the pizzicato smg IT'S SO GOOD
happy to see your not have a low sens setting, like all other op controller players
