The point of this channel was never to be a glaze fest for my own gameplay since I feel that would be a little dishonest of me. I want this channel to be something for newer players that have less time to play these types of games to kind of see how someone who does play them a bit more often can think and work. After seeing the support from these types of videos I will be doing them more often and posting them here and there showing the hard games whether it be a loss or win if I am able to get any teachable moments out of it
This is so refreshing, I am a Magik one trick so Im glad to get some better insight into how thing can go an what to expect win or loss. Also Magik is super hot so thats why I main her
If I had a dollar for every time I miss the dash swirl and immediately get pinned down by a penny I might just be a millionaire. But super insightful video bro, currently learning to play adjacent to tanks better and not full diving into a 1v6 lol
same Peni has been the sole reason my rank progression has slowed down right now she’s in every match and I have had very timid tanks causing me to force plays that aren’t there and dying :/
Actually do appreciate this. Currently I have forced the Magik into Peni game, but only because I need the practice. That first round did make me realize I need to learn maybe moon knight? To break a team from that loss. Happy holidays see you on the next one.
Hats off to you for this video. I wish more content creators would make this sort of video. It's always good to see what people who are good with a certain character can do in a game but it's always through a winner's lense on top of being gameplay from someone who is clearly a capable player. Thanks again for this insight, it's also interesting to see how calm you are even during a loss. I think I would already lose my morale after the second death during the push attempt. Keep it up!
I play for vibes mostly! What I mean is that if I end up losing its not like ill stop playing the game so I can j earn that mmr back by doing better or getting more lucky in the next game. I like the game so I dont get mad unless somones toxic lmao Ty for the kind words :)
This is actually something refreshing! Everyone posts highlights and wins but not the “unlucky” games. Even tho These are the games u learn the most from actually! Enjoy ur vacation dude! Don’t stress
Beo ive been getting cooked in some of my games as Magik so its good to see from your perspective why that might be i.e. bad matchups and overall team comps. Loving the Magik vids!
Great video it was enjoyable to watch your struggles in your first difficult game. You nicely explained what to do and what not to do and where you went wrong. I hope they will fix the Magik hitbox on E because it is so unintuitive to hit someone.
I think videos like this are vital to learning any character. You can learn twice as much from losses and what went wrong. Thanks for the upload and keep it up!
I really love your honesty within the gameplay showing where you could have played better, definitely helps seeing both good and bad gameplay to learn magik
you’ve got a sub from me, glad to see the struggle I go thru with peni from someone at a higher elo lol. i definitely struggle switching mindsets sometimes when my tanks fail to be aggressive enough. have to remember that as magik unfortunately you can’t really set the pace unless the enemy team over extends
Easily one of the best videos iv seen! Nice to see some real content, all we see from everyone is people playing like gods. Sometimes the struggle is real and it's nice to see when it happens to top teir players.
It is good to see games like these. I've honestly been stuck at bronze 1 because I seem to only get a team that works together 1 out of 3 matches. The solo queue is awful for tank players. Seeing I'm not the only one who has these types of games really helps with the confidence issue I've been having.
@@OverhaulZero Not necessarily my fault how am I supposed to get past bronze if I'm playing groot and my team picks all dps and not one strategist? And if they do pick a strategist the dps whines if they die so instead of healing the tank they heal the dps? Vanguard is kind of reliant on teams and if your team is only worried about pumping out damage and refuses to heal or capture the objective it's kind of hard to move up. But you're right ill just swap to duelist. I made it all the way to Silver 1 last night playing punisher so I think it's a Vanguard is to reliant on teams in a game where the majority of the player base doesn't incorporate team work issue.
@ brother I’m seriously not trying to be mean but I was able to solo carry into plat and I am by no means good at the game your teammates should not matter at such a low level where the other teams teammates are just the same level as the teammates you’re complaining about man… if you can’t rank up? Guess what that’s your rank! And stop blaming anyone but yourself. If you believe you are as good as you say then Bronze players should not be stopping you regardless of shitty teammates lol it’s this way in every game man
@@OverhaulZero I do see what you mean. Maybe I'm just not meant to play Vanguard. I am quite pushy at times tanking because I'm used to Wow where I can just pull everything with no issue. I did make silver and nearly gold switching between a few duelists and strategists. So maybe the role was the issue for me and not necessarily the teammates.
@@Derpitz96 yeah see there you go! Honestly I figured this out too, I started to play other things and mess with people I thought I might like due to my play style and I did a lot better
Great video as always!! An issue I'm having with Magik is her combos after landing the dash. When I use the dash and hit my target up, I have a hard time following up the combo because I usually end up a little too forward and and missing the next hit. Any tips for keeping on my target? (I play on controller)
My biggest learning magik is the dives and knowing how to position myself to kill the healers quickly and get out safely, also killing the ones in the air since my teammates don't do it
I've been getting better at Magik but in quickplay. I recently had a game where I got absolutely diffed by another Magik, and I felt so helpless. Man it made me realise how much of a beginner I really am.
When Playing as magik and facing PENI PARKER when she does her landmine drones you can teleport to the object and place the demon on it, it takes one of the demons and maybe a punch to remove it. Something like a drive by just to clear it Also there seems like there were some situations where could your going to die or feel overwhelmed, example i noticed with "PUNISHERS ULT" you noticed the team was gathering there and you tried running but if you had ran back to punisher and just stayed on his back to avoid his ult and by more time while his team targets you. you may get a chance to escape but its slim youll most likely die if you use up all your teleports.
Yeah I definitely appreciate the choice to show harder games. Stomps are okay to showcase too, but I think showcasing more difficult games gives better opportunities to learn.
Magik absolutely sucks when your team is bad and won’t go in. I love her but for now I’m switching to Thor. They play similar & people actually like healing you lol
I'm diamond 3/2 with magik, it's really hard but it feels like you have to be playing way better then average to win because she's very team dependent, her optimal situation is when your team has Frontline pressure and that allows you to assist Frontline and pop off on their back line when given the opportunity, I think she's really tank dependent, there are bans in diamond so no hawk and hela is nice as well
@ Okay Great! I hate when people call him bad cause he’s really not. I hit a personal record of 46 KO’s in Comp with him which is quite high for a tank. People just need to learn how he works and how to use him cause he has a very unique style.
Im having trouble trying to figure out if magik IS a diver or not. Im hearing conflicting statements from different magik players, anyone here have any opinions?
nah, magik's a brawler, you wanna fight frontline with your tank. HOWEVER, if youre fighting in the front and have ur cooldowns and see someone important in the backline u can kill, go for them
You'll build ult charge and your passive HP way faster throwing demons out at the tanks. It might feel like a waste to use your abilities on the tanks but missing an ability means missing ult charge I like to play up front if we only have one tank, and if we have two tanks I'll try to dive more Also if you suspect the healers have their ult, try and bait out the ult, then go in with your ult after theirs wears off
Rather than malding over my rank I play to improve and get better. It's not like I don't wanna rank up but it's not the end goal if that makes sense play to have fun in the most competitive way possible
bro if you have any freetime please be willing to coach me on how to be a better magik player ill send you my matches and you can tell me what to do better 😭😭😭 i already am reviewing my games and seeing what i can do to play better

Dude thats awesome and wholesome, love the channel so far
This is so refreshing, I am a Magik one trick so Im glad to get some better insight into how thing can go an what to expect win or loss. Also Magik is super hot so thats why I main her
Do you think magik will still be good after season buff no longer being in effect?
A fun idea would be us to send you out clips and critique them, giving us advice on how to do better.
If I had a dollar for every time I miss the dash swirl and immediately get pinned down by a penny I might just be a millionaire. But super insightful video bro, currently learning to play adjacent to tanks better and not full diving into a 1v6 lol
Oh, so Im not the only one
I hate penny so much...
same Peni has been the sole reason my rank progression has slowed down right now she’s in every match and I have had very timid tanks causing me to force plays that aren’t there and dying :/
@@machinayrequiem8596Beat me to it dawg
As a struggling Magik main, this is genuinely comforting to watch. Appreciate the accountability and honesty in dealing with uphill matchups.
Actually do appreciate this. Currently I have forced the Magik into Peni game, but only because I need the practice. That first round did make me realize I need to learn maybe moon knight? To break a team from that loss.
Happy holidays see you on the next one.
My alt is Squirrel Girl especially if the matchup consists of anti-melees and CC characters.
Another great video. Win or lose, please keep posting your Majik matches as they are great case studies for us who main her.

Glad you enjoy it!

W content as always homie, enjoy the vacay!
THANKS(:
I think she is one the coolest characters in the game and its super satisfying when you managed to hit that combo but sadly I miss that way too often.
Love your videos! Hope you had a great Christmas!
Same to you(((:
This is good content. Big help for figuring out these situations on my own.
really glad I found your channel, I am learning a lot from ur commentary
I think these videos are what gonna take me from a diamond to gm player
absolutely insane game sense and game mechanics, hope u can climb higher to compete in one above all!!!!
Glad I found this channel. I want to learn magik as my second duellist 😊
You might be the best magik player I’ve seen so far W gameplay
Love the gameplay! I think you played penny pretty well as magik. Every time I see penny and I’m magik I die inside lol
She is a lit insta swap sometimes i fear
Keep the magik content coming ❤ you're a great player. Currently trying to assassin with sword projectile and dash to keep portals for exiting

Wow your channel is super blowing up. Good for you. 🎉
:))))
Great plays despite the loss
Great work opening that first match, you made it an actual contest rather than being trapped at spawn all game.
Sometimes ur team j needs a push
Nah ur team was actually throwing why can’t they just walk up after you get a 2k on back lines 😭
Dude I’m saying, why does nobody know how to play the game?
Your little avatar is so cute!!!
@@Tommy2Banks Thank you!!!

Use the projectile as a finisher when they're a Lil far or then just dash and place a demon down
Im glad im not the only one who gets bad luck games

J wait bro i have been battered by magiks as ive played ranked but im having lots of fun
There will always be someone better. Just remember that.
can i just say ur little png character is soooo so cute i love looking at it lol
Thank you!(:
Magik and Bucky my favorite duelists (with an honorable mention for moon knight)
I'm a lover of magik/black panther myself (:

Do you have any advice for 1v1ing tanks? I know how to ko squishies easily enough but I always lose to tanks.
Drop demon on top of them and fight inside the attack radius while hitting meles
being on Penny and hearing that comment about switching to hawkeye, yeah, i see why, it's so much better not being in her webs
main psylocke for these kinda of games
how do u have good random teammates? i always get really bad people which is no problem it’s a game but i wanna rank up 😅
Are you capping your fps at 120 or 145 I see it change between videos.
145 normally but I was rendering a vid during my last recording session so It was prob lower
I started playing last week and somehow have managed to solo que to gold I don’t see how people do that and get to masters
Lots of play time lots of struggle I hope to get there one day lmao
im the same rank as you and i still learn things from ur magik lol
When I get home and have time to finally play for more than 2 hrs a day I'll push for a higher rank 🫠
is it better to animation cancel every attack with a melee?
Only if ur in range to do so you get value outta the shield by doing damage and its faster than using a regular left click
Could you do a Cap video so people can finally understand Cap is actually pretty solid?
I plan to soon when I get home (:

Both, higher elo you have to be more flexible
what's this elo? it look like gold? bc this is my teammates a lot of times, afraid to take point
These games were in plat! Im currently in d2
22:34 what is an off angle?
Angle playing in an area that ppl wont normally check that can be used to take attention away from the team onto you
@@SillySphark thanks!
Have arthritis bad so I can’t keyboard and mouse. So I’m on controller on my PC and I wasn’t doing to good with her until I raised my sensitivity
Why will they not walk forward lol you're so modest about it every time you turn around and see them back there struggling.
Ong idk
what is "playing for vibes"
Rather than malding over my rank I play to improve and get better. It's not like I don't wanna rank up but it's not the end goal if that makes sense play to have fun in the most competitive way possible

Istg, scarlet witch players should be locked away. The amount of times that I hit a perfect combo on her and she just flies away is a joke.
Healers do way too much damage
magik is literally so much stronger in diamond and above because you can ban hela
Pin me please is crazyy
with the AI pfp too 💀💀🥶🐸🅱️🚴♂️
Man your team was garbage.
1st
Pin me pls ❤
AYO!?
@@SillySpharkthis is ranked? Where are the bans?
