Ahh good times. My most awesome PvP experiences all came from cata. Had some in MoP too but cata still is my No. 1. I remember watching this with my friends 2 - 3 times a day. We played FMP with fire mage because of hansol.
I have got to say mate, even though i quit WoW due to lack of time. I still take time to watch your videos, absolutely amazing to see how you play the mage class, played a mage for 6 years here since vanilla. Taking the underdog spec and playing it like a pro makes the game so so SO much more fun, Thanks for your videos, can't wait for the next one. (Actually i can, since im all covered in work) Keep it up, thanks for your effort and time you've spent to keep me entertained. Big Hug.
for example. a warrior pops spell reflect. Drop an ice lance to get rid of spell reflect then continue pwning. Better to have him reflect ice lance that does 5k dmg than with a pyro blast that does 70k dmg
I was frost but I have always wanted to go fire and your tricks have made that possible so thank you Hansol. I was so impressed with those duels esp when u went down against him and didnt give up and won it
As a Fire mage your rotation is pretty much the following: Cone of Cold (Make sure you have the talent so that CoC also freezes your target for 4 seconds), then Scorch into a Fire Blast. They will both crit because of the Shatter talent. After two consecutive crits you'll proc Hot Streak (Instant Pyroblast). Then Freeze your target again with Frost Nova, and launch your Pyroblast for another guaranteed crit. After this, use Living Bomb and finally after all dots are applied Combustion and watch
I have watched alot of pvp videos on youtube, but this one is by far my favorite. The content is amazing, keeps you interested all the way to the ending + you have some skills! Reallyreallyreally great job editing the video aswell!
Oh you mean Art of Combustion from back in 4.1 or 4.2? Yeah I had to delete that one because of Copyright music purposes : ( I know that one was pretty epic and that was around the time people started taking Fire Mages for RBGs. Lol. I've actually had to delete like 10 videos from back in 4.1/4.2 because of that reason. No worries, better videos coming out soon!
Hansol... nice video again i have stalked you, 6months now(good way) enjoyed every video, so far i just passed 2k in 3s on my fire mage, still got much to learn keep it up SAN!
the addon that shows the target's cc as their portrait is called LoseControl. i was confused about this for the longest time so i figured now that i know i would just let those who dont know
I like the time and thought and I am sure there was alot of effort to make this for us. Thank you very much for the vid :). I am lookin' forward to the next one!
Finally a real fire mage that knows what he is doing. I love the intro.. looks like it took a long time to edit.. So ofc a like and subbed right away. Keep it up mate! More vids where you solo 3 people or more! :D
You've got enough spell penetration if you take either the spell penetration neck OR spell penetration cloak (Not both, just 1). And as a Fire mage, you can pretty much just stack critical strike rating. But after you reach enough crit to get guaranteed crits with shatter, you can also take some haste and not forgetting the hit cap of 4% (or 410 hit rating).
You can spread Combustion to all targets in about 10 yards with Impact procs. The Ice Lance can be used for a lockout of the fire tree and for a crit proc. Fire is a fast paced fun spec to play, but it is very crit heavy and the RNG system can be a bit unforgiving sometimes.
agreed cata was fucking liiiit for fire and bg's where the dream!! Even tho frost was still always "the pvp spec" hansol showed us how to make the world burn I LOVED playing this!
Everyone keybinds in their own different way. Do what you feel comfortable with. Just use shift/alt/ctrl modifiers to allow you get the most out of your keybinds and use keys easily accessible. like I use 1-5, QERTSFZXCV+ a shift modifier for each so I get double the binds. And unbind the backpedalling key, S and put something on it. I personally put a fakecast macro on S so I can fakecast scorch and juke those silences.
Hey, man. You're truly awesome. I've been watching your videos for the last couple of months, and i'm really impressed. Kudos to you, sir. And uhm... Could you please name the music in the video? Thanks :3
holy shhhit this was good. this is the kind videos i like and favorite. hansol is best FIRE MAGE that i seen so far try to make 1 video per week if is possible.
Hansol if you have the time, could you do a video on how fire mages should use the somewhat more 'obscure' abilities like spellsteal and decurse? I'd love to see that from you! It's something I struggle with incorporating into my play. Your videos have already helped me a lot though, they're both awesome and educational :D
I really miss these days as a fire mage.. Always loved this vid. Too bad fire mage is a complete different class now compared to cata when it was so fun to play it.
at 1:39 i was like haha no way he wont go in der he gonna die when he went it WTF THIS DUDE IS CRAZY then haha i knew u gonna die scrub then ice block or how its called i was NO WAYYYY I WAS LIKE :OOOOOOOOOOOOO with open mouth then he survive i was hmm i thing i am de noob here -_- EPIC PRO DUDE
I'm not 1005 sure, so don't hang me up on it. But I think it's the one called PowerAuras. I can see that he has that one, not sure if it's the same one showing when his abilities goes of CD though.
Hansol...once again very nice work. Are you in beta? If so would love to see any clips you may have from there...regardless of what people think they may or may not be worth. Also, more RBG vids if Dara allows would also be great. Thx...keep it up!

everything about this is so nostalgic lmao, especially the sound of someone joining vent, wow.
oh cata... you will forever be missed
did hear the opposite some year ago. when warlords gonna be here for some time we'll see Oh MOP we miss you. shit keeps on going :)
Sander Bijsterveld Wotlk was best for PvP imo
Komatsulawl yet during wotlk everyone complained, I remember the many complaints about how easy it was
Imo TBC had the best PvP... back then, not every single class had a heal, which was cool... in a way.
cata was shit imo... bc and wrath only two decent expansions blizz has done
It's an honor. :) Thank you! Really appreciate it. People like you are the ones that really support me :D TY for watching!!
No problem man! Thanks for taking the time to comment, and I really appreciate your feedback. Stay tuned for more P V P, saaan!
Fire mage in 4.3 was stronger than anything else WoW has ever seen.
Oh my god, I miss the good old Combustion! Hit so hard and u could spread it to the whole population of azeroth!
Memories of Cata and MOP is so fun. Loved MOP so much. Didn't play so much since WOD and beyond.
Ahh good times. My most awesome PvP experiences all came from cata. Had some in MoP too but cata still is my No. 1. I remember watching this with my friends 2 - 3 times a day. We played FMP with fire mage because of hansol.
That intro for Sifr gave me unbelievable - divine Stom Peaks - nostalgic shivers to the core of the bones man. Majestic.

Haha, glad I can be some sort of help! Good luck mate.
You're the reason I started a firemage, Hansol, and it's currently the character I enjoy the most - by far! Thanks :D
Thanks man! Unfortunately I haven't gotten in the beta, but definitely more RBGs will be coming soon! Stay tuned!
I was frost but I have always wanted to go fire and your tricks have made that possible so thank you Hansol. I was so impressed with those duels esp when u went down against him and didnt give up and won it
Highly entertaining! You know it was entertaining because I didn't even exit out of fullscreen to check Facebook. xD
2022 still the best content was the old days

"Fire mage PvP has always been a joke... Until this "Hansol" kid came around." Thanks for showing the world how powerful it really can be. :D
DAT jumping 180 dragon's breath --> sheep onto the Paly!
love that you have a bit of everything in your vids. bg, arena and duels. mad skills bro! keep up the good work :)
Again... the need to make another fire mage pvp video starts to rise... Love your videos!!!
Oh you mean Art of Combustion from back in 4.1 or 4.2? Yeah I had to delete that one because of Copyright music purposes : ( I know that one was pretty epic and that was around the time people started taking Fire Mages for RBGs. Lol.

Hansol we need good old PVP movie like this one plis :(
Hansol... nice video again i have stalked you, 6months now(good way) enjoyed every video, so far i just passed 2k in 3s on my fire mage, still got much to learn keep it up SAN!

loved, great movie mate, long time waiting but totally worth it!
Great vid as always mate. Really tempting me away from frost every time I watch one of your vids :-)
i swear i am your biggest fan i am left on a whim just waiting for your next vid you are a amazing don't ever stop being such a fantastic gamer
Very nice movie Hansol! Enjoyed watching it all the way through.
I like the time and thought and I am sure there was alot of effort to make this for us. Thank you very much for the vid :). I am lookin' forward to the next one!
Finally a real fire mage that knows what he is doing. I love the intro.. looks like it took a long time to edit.. So ofc a like and subbed right away. Keep it up mate! More vids where you solo 3 people or more! :D
Man you are the best Fire mage of WOW trust me on this one you have it all man style , skill everything , nice work!!
Actually excited for some cata!
hansol is turning into a legend
You sir are the reason fire mages shall inherit the earth.
Also, more tips and tricks! :D
IMBA! one of top fire mages i have ever seen. mad skills and poly-cone of cold and ring of frost shatter comps are great.
you know you Char well!
This is a pro video man. Your intro is phenominal
You've got enough spell penetration if you take either the spell penetration neck OR spell penetration cloak (Not both, just 1). And as a Fire mage, you can pretty much just stack critical strike rating. But after you reach enough crit to get guaranteed crits with shatter, you can also take some haste and not forgetting the hit cap of 4% (or 410 hit rating).
Dude i'm your fan! lol Playing as a fire mage because of you (was frost). Greetings from Brazil...
I love watching ur vids bro :D they help my game play alot :D Thanks bro!!!!

Wow! Sick video! I'm lvling my Mage right now as frost and ima have to try fire again at higher lvl! That was sick and the tips are great.
man this is sick. i always wanted a fire mage and you make it look badass man
Wish I could play this again... playing Fire in Cata was one of my fav gaming experiences
agreed cata was fucking liiiit for fire and bg's where the dream!! Even tho frost was still always "the pvp spec" hansol showed us how to make the world burn I LOVED playing this!

1.-Hansol
2.-Cartoonz
yo man your sick as hell! You got any vids coming with more in depth like maybe a sort of rotation? Also what should my crit and spell pen etc be at?
I think that might have been changed. At least the tooltip says "...spread any Fire damage over time effects to nearby enemy targets within 12 yards."
When fire blast procs, it spreads any dots to surrounding targets, so everyone will have your combustion combo etc
Nothing to say but "awesome." Just "awesome."
I dropped my fire mage for my ele shaman a lot more fun but watching you play makes me wanna start up again :P
Hahahah, loved the clip in the end where you kill that guy by using slow fall :)
BEST MAGE LEGEND EVER!!
Hey, man. You're truly awesome. I've been watching your videos for the last couple of months, and i'm really impressed. Kudos to you, sir.
And uhm... Could you please name the music in the video? Thanks :3
holy shhhit this was good. this is the kind videos i like and favorite. hansol is best FIRE MAGE that i seen so far try to make 1 video per week if is possible.
What has changed with fire mage since Cata? Is it too different? I remember I had alot of fun playing it how it was back then.
Cartoonz, and Klinda : HEY HANSOL, LETZZ BE FRIENDZZ! :3
Hansol if you have the time, could you do a video on how fire mages should use the somewhat more 'obscure' abilities like spellsteal and decurse? I'd love to see that from you! It's something I struggle with incorporating into my play.
Your videos have already helped me a lot though, they're both awesome and educational :D
your videos are amazing...honestly, truely awesome...but they're bittersweet because i reaalize ill never play that well,hahaha
Whats the addon wich shows you the cc 4 example dragons breath on the unit frames of the players?
finally a great new video well worth the wait
Cata fire = Prime time to play mage in wow history.. so much fun.!!!
I really miss these days as a fire mage.. Always loved this vid. Too bad fire mage is a complete different class now compared to cata when it was so fun to play it.
no dps as much as fire can provide but youre ripping the gameplay, dude. keep it up.
yaaaaaaaaas,nice vid,good to see you again man!!
at 1:39 i was like haha no way he wont go in der he gonna die when he went it WTF THIS DUDE IS CRAZY then haha i knew u gonna die scrub then ice block or how its called i was NO WAYYYY I WAS LIKE :OOOOOOOOOOOOO with open mouth then he survive i was hmm i thing i am de noob here -_- EPIC PRO DUDE

Keep it up :D
Amazing vid mate!! keep up the awesome work! looking forward to your next vid :)
Hansol, give us a rundown on your addons. especially the one that shows your cauterize and the one showing what CC's being used on you as a picture.
Very nice video man, as always great job!
Fire Mages are still good as hell dude jesus...
He's back!!!!!!
love your vids and your matchs against the frost mage, some nice tricks in those matchs i play frost so was going for the frost mage but gg son!
Hansol= FIRE GOD
This was really entertaining.
Woaw!! This is a really good video!!
GJ San, WTB more videos playing 2k fire mage, having big trouble with the last 200 rating, going up and down ;)
its impossible to dislike this :)
the people who disliked this vid never really played WoW! Thus is an epic video!!
FINALLY! Another video!
Hansol you sir are an amazing freaking mage. I love all of your videos c:
Can't wait for the next video :)
you are amazing at making videos
well duh.. he is Hansol ! :b
I'm not 1005 sure, so don't hang me up on it. But I think it's the one called PowerAuras. I can see that he has that one, not sure if it's the same one showing when his abilities goes of CD though.
THIS WAS AMAZING. so sick man keep it up!
Nice video man!
Great videos. Would love voice commentary for the dues
When you are on the Armory page, just simply switch the EU part to US in your URL. He will come up first.
Liked the video before even seeing it.
i really miss the good old times where fire mages takes some skill
im glad ive never played against a mage as good as you.........
Hansol...once again very nice work. Are you in beta? If so would love to see any clips you may have from there...regardless of what people think they may or may not be worth. Also, more RBG vids if Dara allows would also be great. Thx...keep it up!
So... Hansol cata pvp classic back? 👀
so, i sorta calculated Hansol's dps when he did his first "bursting!" in AV, he did 140k dps, 2.1mil damage total in around 14seconds.
Ice Block removes all debuffs from you. At 3:21 he Ice Blocks to remove the Cauterize debuff so he doesn't lose health.
the intro made me piss my pants cause of exitement
Thats a Brain freeze proc that he spell stole from the frost mage, it lets you fireball or frostfire bolt instantly.
