@信心AURORA Hey man, cool Zed plays and all and great edits, it's obvious how much time you put into this, but there's no denying that it could use some work. It looks like you tried to experiment with a ton of styles in this video and it's not wrong per say, but when you combine all of that it becomes a bit of a mess. These are all my opinions so take them with a grain of salt if you want to. From the top the video starts off with a dark tone, what with vignettes and the music. Given that all LoL montage editors are limited by the camera tools aesthetics-wise, it's a good effort to set the mood. At 0:29, there's the text of "Zed, Master Of Shadows" which I feel is redundant since everyone knows what's going on. For @The Carry edits, he usually just puts a simple bottom left text stating the name of the player and the champion, which lasts for about 5 seconds, and that's in the first 10 seconds of the video. It's been 30 seconds and with 4 shots of the Zed model, it seems like you're just dragging it on for the aesthetic. I feel that you could have just used the shot of zed and the text with one more of the previous shots and it would've been sufficient. The last shot of zed recalling under the tower is also just filler. 0:52 . The unexpected Kevin Hart in the deadliest. Seriously, it killed the mood and I thought it was going to be a comedy. The same can be said at 1:50 when you put in the Chinese Commentators and your troll on the Zyra, ending with a "LOL". I don't condone troll plays, but again, ruined the mood, especially with that background music (Königsaura). The immediate transition back to the music and the next clip didn't help either. 0:57 jump cuts were sort of redundant but it synced to the music so why not? I liked it. 1:06 Slow Mo was brilliant. Loved that part. 1:34 Blood splatter was a nice touch, but I feel like it could have been used on a better clip. Since Thresh's KS was what showed on the kill feed, it seemed like he was given the spotlight and not Zed. I mean you had a ton of other solo single/double/triple kills, any of them could be better suited for the splatter effect. 2:30 Dude, we know you died. The quick fade to black doesn't cover it up well enough. I'm not calling you out on it, but there are some better ways to hide your death, if you want to. Personally, I'd just show the death and have a slow fade ti black to the next clip. But if you want to hide it you could slow-mo the shuriken that would kill Jhin and jump cut to black. Add in a "Quadra-Kill" sound effect if you want to. From then to 3:10, the edits follow the same pattern. No transition, a snap zoom/contrast in sync. It works, some other people say it disrupts them watching the play but I don't think it does. Again, matter of opinion. 3:10 I was so excited to see the text describing your combo. AFAIK The Carry doesn't do that. I'm pretty sure I watched all his videos but I could be wrong. But I was pretty disappointed at no slow mo as you went through with it. I mean, almost your entire audience can't comprehend what the hell's going on so if you put the "combo" text you should put a slow mo so that it's understandable and unique compared to the rest of the clips. We can't expect all montage makers to slow every clip down so we understand each step and ability use. This clip could have been the stand-out. (To those who say RUclips has a slow-mo button, yeah, I know, but editors have to do their part too in their product they put out. If not anyone can upload a RIP HEADPHONE USER - Volume level video and expect the viewer to change their volume.) 3:19 The "Living Shadow" point out was good, but not good in that clip. By pointing it out via the Icon and the text the viewer automatically focuses on it, but there's no need to since the clip's Janna kill was only 5 seconds long. Instead, putting it on a long teamfight clip where it's chaotic and you just throw that shadow out, pointing it out is good so we know how you managed to sneak a shuriken kill. 3:36 Was there a chat reaction? It would have been great there instead of cutting to the next clip. If there wasn't then your teammates and the enemy team are robots because I'm sure there would have been at least a "LOL" or a ? ping. 4:10 nice Thunderlord's proc jarr effect. I think that was great. 4:25 screen shrink seemed kind of lame. I mean it was just a troll juke malphite ult. Nothing that needed a focus for. From here on out, you gotta decide whether you want a saturation or not dude. Some clips have it, like the fiora solo kill clip, some don't like the Ashe and Alistar clip, which is followed by the Varus solo kill clip with saturation, then the Zoe solo kill clip with none. It's pretty disrupting. 5:10 Why the Camille voice line? "Your limitations will be your downfall". Doesn't seem like anyone's falling due to their limitations. What follows is the Zed v Zed kill and that quote just doesn't seem relevant. 5:31 What's "Huntseason"? Am I missing something? Randomly put, or someone explain it to me, I don't get it. 5:35 Speed up there was a nice pseudo-transition. 5:52 The cuts here were out-of-place. Since the music beats were slow, your cuts synced to it and were also slow, giving us time to see it and process the visual, which were a huge bunch of nothing. It worked in 0:57 since the beats were quick and we just shot through the 5 different clips that we just found cool. But this had a random dying Zoe, a Blood Moon Thresh, and then the next clip involved a Malphite and Shaco. No Thresh. Just, so random. 6:08 had a pause till 6:14. Why? That's way too long. Redundant. 6:15 shot of a dead Sona was nice. But…the next clip had no Sona! Why? :( 6:28 Why’d you slow-mo Zed literally just walking away? You could have slow-mo’ed the double kill that happened in a blink of an eye! 6:56 This clip would have worked so well with 3:19’s effect. This double screen you gave us is weird, like a "Shadow-Cam", and its appearance and disappearance was abrupt and threw me off. At the very least, put a black/white border around it. 7:23 Brilliant Slow-Mo. 7:45 Dude this Quadra-kill would have been epic with the blood splatter effect! It ended with a VLADIMIR kill. It would have fit so well. 8:03 That music fade set me up for something epic, and I didn’t get it. That clip just doesn’t suit the music. It took you another few seconds to get the kill which just made the silence awkward. If the Lux, or whoever, died maybe one or half a second as the music faded, it would be much better. 8:15 The music fits the shot of Championship Zed acting all king-like! Sets the tone to be like an epic battle. And then at 8:28…..the music just cuts to a super soft volume with a Lee awkwardly walking. I legit thought it was gonna be a funny/troll play, but nope, it was a cool sneak kill. Music was just…The volume cut did not work. Too Abrupt and killed the mood. 8:54 Nice sync to transition to next play. 9:50 I get what you were trying to do with the WW ult dodge, but it looks a little out of place. I myself aren’t sure what I would put. Maybe a white flash? I don’t know, but the sudden zoom onto WW’s epic fail seems just weird to me. Overall, I liked your plays and the edits. I know your put a lot of effort into this. I haven’t watched your other vids so maybe you did address these things and I just didn’t know. I also hope I didn’t sound too overbearing. I’m just trying to offer some helpful critique, so I’m not trying to sound like a backseat editor. I also definitely don’t have the skills like you and The Carry. And also ignore all the haters who say your editing sucks. I think it’s good, and you earned a sub on your channel! :D
Yeah I know about the youtube algorithm, forgot to mention that. But I think cutting out some of the filler parts and slow-moing others might just get past (EDIT: "The 10 min mark"), but you're the one with the channel and the software so I don't know any better than you. And I will check out your channel! EDIT: Oh and thx for clarifying the Huntseason thing.
As one, by far one of a fair comment out here. Atleast you explain your points or arguments, not bluntly say "thats bad, waste flash" or w/e they are saying lol.
this guy looks like the cleanest zed definetily. maybe too many flashes, but he doesnt take damage. he gets the execute cleanly. most of the kills most players could get, but not as cleanly. THIS GUYS I INSANE
Damn... exctratic montag, you really put your whole into this one, was really dream-like! Thank you for the absolutely insane time and work you put into this one. GG!!!
i love how all the comments are about wasted flashes, but most of the time he flashed to not let someone use an ability on em. f.e. he used his flash to dodge wukongs ult...But yeah there are some "stylish flashes"
The thing is these are clean, and I'm not saying this person is the same, but in NA every time I get players like LL stylish or other montage players in my games, they int 90% of times in order to make these plays.
He ulted lee over the wall at wolves and placed a shadow near the 2nd turret so when you ult back then W real quick you will appear where that shadow was. Same exact combo shows at 3:10
u throw you W then press R and before that W lands u have to press it again. This way its rly hard to notice that zed is throwing his W so u can kill enemy without giving them any chance to react.
Dude, why make the contrast so high? I get it in the beginning to get the dramatic effect but not during all the highlights like u can't appreciate the fkng plays
tbh, that's the whole comment section right here. Some people can't accept that we want to use flash in such a way. So yes, it is, all those commenters out there

Maybe WhiteLies should stop trying to edit every single play with a different filter/effect
And sync up a better music with them
Instagram just called, they want their shity filters and rapid zooming back

@信心AURORA Hey man, cool Zed plays and all and great edits, it's obvious how much time you put into this, but there's no denying that it could use some work.

The last shot of zed recalling under the tower is also just filler.
0:52 . The unexpected Kevin Hart in the deadliest. Seriously, it killed the mood and I thought it was going to be a comedy. The same can be said at 1:50 when you put in the Chinese Commentators and your troll on the Zyra, ending with a "LOL". I don't condone troll plays, but again, ruined the mood, especially with that background music (Königsaura). The immediate transition back to the music and the next clip didn't help either.

nice edit!
holy crap that's some fast mechanics
2:53 ?? Could anyone explain to me how he came back to the shadow at this distance ? Thanks
He ulted lee over the wall at wolves and placed a shadow near the 2nd turret so when you ult back then W real quick you will appear where that shadow was. Same exact combo shows at 3:10
u throw you W then press R and before that W lands u have to press it again. This way its rly hard to notice that zed is throwing his W so u can kill enemy without giving them any chance to react.

Dude, why make the contrast so high? I get it in the beginning to get the dramatic effect but not during all the highlights like u can't appreciate the fkng plays
"Flashy Montage".
He is fast, not exactly good, but fun to watch.
Good Montage...pretty nice!
Enjoy Guys 🙏
Those qss were kreygasm
those flashes ... YIKES!
"Flashes kept are weapons wasted"
And I like your Zed :)
Can u do a fiora montage?
Style points are ridiculously high; that I've got to admit.
Who is still playing this game?
Lit edits 👌👌💚💚
El mejor Montage de los tuyos :D Saludos desde Argentina
5:05 SO FCKİNG GOOD
(U can combine it w/ flash) R+E+W+R2+Q=W2 escape
Enter every filter known to man
He’s style is like Dopa
Best Sup Ming！！！
All Zed mains : "So many useless flashes" rofl
jealousy ?
tbh, that's the whole comment section right here. Some people can't accept that we want to use flash in such a way. So yes, it is, all those commenters out there
Waw this video is so good
This montage is literally a montage of shadow combos
