I understand your frustration Icy. Unfortunately, most players lack a true understanding of how to win a game of control. They only know that if they can get a kill, it is somehow helping their team win and it’s low key not. That’s why you run into weird secret man’s, odd 1v2s and players not capturing rings or staying in advantageous positions to win.
The breakdown was awesome, even after watching your videos for years it's still cool to see everything in replay like that where you can actually take the time to explain everything that's going on.
30:05, this entire scenario encapsulates the problem with playing with randoms in any mode. I rarely play PVP, but I do play lots of Escape and the same thing happens: Selfish, unthinking plays. Many layers aren't aware of their surroundings (they'll walk in front of you, blocking shots or getting you shot as they move) take unnecessary shots (alerting the enemies with a burst of fire in PVE instead of going for the silent kills, or, in your case, going for wrap shot instead of playing for damage in a 2v1 scenario in PVP) or rushing at the wrong time, not rushing when they should, getting obsessed with either ammo or weapons when they are no longer relevant to a win, etc. The point is, in any mode, there are a lot of players who play for themselves and not the team or the immediate goal.
When it comes to individual skill, teamplay, whatever, I don't know if you're the best, but you're definitely on Gear's Tier 1 level, but, when it comes to explaining the game, I can honestly say, you are the best I've seen on RUclips.
Thanks for still pushing out the content man. Even though I’m sure most of the time you don’t want to. The game is super stale and I’m just glad you’re still pushing out the content for us💯❤️
I hate when my team has the lead by a lot and then all of a sudden everyone just starts playing crazy and making dumb decisions that we end up losing. It reminds me of high school when kids start doing dumb shit right before graduation… smh 🤦♂️
As a die hard Gears player and fan myself Icy, I speak for everyone when I say, I literally cannot wait to never play Gears 5 again when E day comes out 😂
Also players think because they out number a players 2v1, they should automatically win so they dive into it shooting randomly, bouncing forward aggressively without much thought.
5:02 exact same range exact samne spread the only difference was you were hurt and he wasnt and people say there isnt 2 different chunk ranges in the game
It's not the same range although I understand what you're saying. If you play the video in .25 speed you'll see that I shot just before him allowing him to get half a step closer and chunk me. That half a step is the difference between a chunk and 84%
"Hmmm.... we need to get objective kills to take the objective... hmmm... let's lancer in their general direction from 40 feet away!!! Genius!" - the 3 randoms u get put with on ranked control
not to mention if this was a good gears of war game, the dude that slid at the end wouldnt of even had a chance to get a shot off because he would of just got pop shotted over cover once he slid..
lol he just states the obvious, there’s nothing surprising about what he said. If you’re a good player and you play ranked control often, then you already know these things, you can relate. You’re probably just a lil' puppy boy simp…
We do listen to u Ice, This time I would tell u, that you lost the game on Min 28 when u ran away from the hill and decided to fight 2 enemies. Did not need map control, all u needed was 5 points.
It’d kinda be a little better if people in this game had communication really, instead everyone including myself just go off on our own paths. Simply just saying small phrases in voice chat would make a major difference in win or loss.
Unfortunately you can’t, best course of action, pickup a power weapon that’s you’re good with to keep the enemy team at a disadvantage constantly and hold the hill, sometimes solo because mofos don’t always play for hill
@@RedIcy Basically after the last season regarding esports in gears they said that it would end there in 2020-2021 (I wanna know what your thoughts are on gears esports now and if you think they will go back on their word.)
Xylose, mate, ur a horrible player, seriously! Change or suffer the consequence of being looked at as a joke. You’re not allowed to wrap-shot for the next 6 months time you can use to think over your actions and improve for the better, and not worse. You probably got overexcited that Icy was on your team and wanted to show off your wrap-shot skills to him every single time, but in your demise you failed to impress him or us. Same as Cole. I’m very disappointed.
Nah This Video was actually super Good, coaching after the game legit helps mad people understand what's really going on.

Love the breakdown’s/coaching sessions. Please do more of them!
Great video as always and great breakdown of the control match Icy. Insane how long this game has been out and ppl still don't know how to play it.
feel like this is the kind of breakdown thats very much needed for the gears community💯. great vid bro👍

People refuse to think/ learn. In Gears, in life...
Yeah fr this a problem
Is bro a philosopher?!
Bro is a philosophizer

The end of this video is so good. Thanks for breaking it down.
Great video man fire. The last breakdown was so good.
Nick laughing when some bs happens is just the funniest thing😂
Love the instruction and direction at the end ICY, thanks for the coaching💯💪
more breakdowns needed! from that big brain
Also players think because they out number a players 2v1, they should automatically win so they dive into it shooting randomly, bouncing forward aggressively without much thought.
The way he got straight lined lol 11:48
27:42 nah i woulda called it wraps right there. that would be my last game fs
5:02 exact same range exact samne spread the only difference was you were hurt and he wasnt and people say there isnt 2 different chunk ranges in the game

This is my daily problems in Gears 5 play for team thinking helping but team never help theim self.
The movement is crazy
You can shotgun people from a mile away in this game it's crazy
"Hmmm.... we need to get objective kills to take the objective... hmmm... let's lancer in their general direction from 40 feet away!!! Genius!" - the 3 randoms u get put with on ranked control
sometimes i think this game is rng based
maybe why i liked gears 3 and 4 alot better
not to mention if this was a good gears of war game, the dude that slid at the end wouldnt of even had a chance to get a shot off because he would of just got pop shotted over cover once he slid..
Got damn coach icy got me feeling like I’m back in Highschool ball
😂😂 stg

coach icy ❄️ 🐐 solo kids play selfish and wonder why they lose, REALIZE WHO IS ON YOUR ROSTER
Not only that, realize you can do better, and do the right thing
It’d kinda be a little better if people in this game had communication really, instead everyone including myself just go off on our own paths. Simply just saying small phrases in voice chat would make a major difference in win or loss.
Nice video sad that nobody plays gears anymore
Nobody that’s actually good at the game plays anymore
That’s cap you have no idea
^@@Joedav2714
How dare you insinuate that people use their noggins. You’re right. Gears is a wall-bounce A-button mash freak show. I miss the old days.
Unfortunately you can’t, best course of action, pickup a power weapon that’s you’re good with to keep the enemy team at a disadvantage constantly and hold the hill, sometimes solo because mofos don’t always play for hill
the break down at the end was fire 🥶 you get the worse teammates of all time
He's playing battle field 😂😂😂😂
It makes sense, there’s a different way to play every shooter
yo icy, you ever think gears esports will make a return regardless of what tc said?
what did tc say
They didn’t say anything lol. Almost guaranteed they’ll have it if the game is good and balanced.

Thank god I was doing well against you
Ayo Nicholas what does it take to be your duo in mm’s
Control with bots means because they keep repawning and are shit and if other team are even just decent the game is impossible
Nice, a long icy video
Damn dawg 😭😂5 points
Brother when you are soloing ranked it's u vs 4 that's it if u slacking u ain't winning
Fields or Russ???
put them on COACH
Ye
Game is more boring on pc
first
