This definitely felt like a more basic guide, but one advanced tip I can offer as a fellow Koa enthusiast is that his hook is particularly good at getting enemies off of high ground on maps like serpent and splitstone. Often times when you pull someone down off a ledge it’s much harder to escape and keeps you and your team much safer!
@@sazakrom106 Honestly, i don't understand what are you talking about. Even after all his nerfs and buffs he is still hell fun to play. I am already lvl 70 on him and will play more. I don't know why people keep complaining about nerfs. If you having so much fun of killing tons of enemies without single death, maybe you should switch to training matches with bots?
@@sergeylyzhin543 who hurt you lol? Can't a person express his opinion of how makoa changed. He really isn't what he used to be and i've played since beta, only came back to it recently. And before that stupid card thing came he was definitely better then he was now.
That was obviously a big brain play to scare the Buck. As you can see, he jumped away from me just at the mere sound of the hook, because he was so terrified. This was in no way me being bad at Paladins, no, it was clearly a cosmic brain mind game to psych the Buck out.
Makoa is my absolutely favorite character, and tho I'm a complete noob on multi-player games, it's nice to see I've been playing him right all those years. Great video BTW!
I recommend having the Damage Reduction card in a Pluck Loadout since you'll be hitting hooks more constantly. It will help you survive more if you hook an enemy and you're being shot at. Remeber, there's no way to counter Damage Reduction
Can u do either raum or fernando Bc I keep on seeing people using these character as a point tank and not fulfilling Thier dmg potential especially fernando players who uses aegis and just hold the shield when being attack

It is the only good talent he has, and can work as a maintank and offtank. If there isnt any other option, he can be a somewhat decent pick. He can still be aggressive with it and make space.

That tip about his hook coming from the left is super helpful to know, great video!
Yeah makoa is good and all but
Can he challenge makoa??
Normal Makoa can't challenge Dutchman Makoa
i was never really a fan of makoa's kit but this video is making me want to try and pick him up again, man looks fun
Yeah hes really fun... but unfortunately hes nothing like what he used to be... being a koa main these days is tough.

Makoa: You are my best friend.
Fernando: :D
Exactly andrew only If the shield gets destroyed -_- half shell makoa sometimes feels like begging for shield reset XDD
I finally found the paladins content.. there’s more than just Kami? Thank god.
Also adrix and syberbolt are other options if you want paladins
Rush Wars I forgot about him
And z1. The guy may sometimes feel like a douche but he's a good guy and definitely earns his GM
His hook doesn't feel very rewarding to me , i sometimes feel like in just dragging death twords me
Same
It’s amazing how he makes it look so easy to hook Up in a champ
Huh, I had no idea that the fact that he throws the anchor with his left arm actually mattered
15:20 nice hook btw........XD

I love Nando players. They’re always so chill 😂

How about % damage like skye or lex
Actually u can wait
I will try this tomorrow.
You can turn a ulted makoa into a chicken, just saying(I spent an entire game doing this and nearly passed myself laughing)
Another great vid from a great youtuber. Keep it up, man!
I love all the original content recently. Not just gameplay or complaining for once in this community. Keep it up andy.
“The maximum range of the hook is about this long.”
Still a better description than 50 units, or what ever it is. Still not sure what a unit is lol.
Someone in ranked called makoa trash and said ash was better is it true?
BUEN VIDEO CRACK, UN SALUDO PLIS! :)
Can u do a custom game with Tyra burn monster against 4 tanks and a healer pls
Can u do either raum or fernando
Bc I keep on seeing people using these character as a point tank and not fulfilling Thier dmg potential especially fernando players who uses aegis and just hold the shield when being attack
If you can stand 500 sec on the point with Aegis and win - why should you try to use your damage potential? Just chill out and ez win ))
Aegis can be used even as a flank nando. It overshadows any other playsyle tbh
Nice! Now I can use hook effectively
Shell spin should have some D.R
> 0:26 - you miss the hook
> a few seconds later you spray
Alright.
Well, what else are you supposed to do when Terminus has his siphon in your face and you failed to hook him out of it? :P
Cool beans
Why u are so toxic in this match ?
OK, you talked about Drogoz ultimate, here's a question: Did Pip or Yagorath works in Makoa ultimate?
thank you for that Video
step 1: you don't
Nice vid!
dantdm roblox
Thanks for the tips. I'm a makoa main and I was pretty much Lost of which is the best talent After the leviathan rework
Bruh? Bruh.
Bro u helped so much I was garbage at Mokoa and with ur loadouts I'm already way better
Yay now i know how to properly play pluck makoa against you in customs! Thanks for the tips andrew
Roadhog?
The real question is...
Pluck or leviathan ?
I want to try to make makos my main tank but I need to practice
Ok I hope that one day I'll be able to hook a flying Drogoz
Eh the hook doesn’t always go through Terminus’ siphon. Sometimes it bounces right off.
Bugadins :/
Best guide ever :)💕
Bruh!
Good guide!
TYYY even tho i learn makoa all ready
Could you please do a guid on ying
ty uwu
Ty my man this helped a lot
Can you do an inara guide?
I dont think inara needs one she is easy to play
@@yarn7733 idk I thought of doing such a thing because you barely see people use her full potential so many neat tricks like did you ever thought of countering koga ult by placing a wall below you? how and when to wall people in or out Id agree that she is the easiest to learn of the point tanks but hitting all three stones on all ranges requires some skill in the end, her ult is kinda tricky sometimes and her walls are definetly the hardest to master ability of all the point tanks in the game
also there is a lot to be said about when you should use what loadout like do I need selfhealing do I need/can make use of the warders field DR how to move when fighting any of the other point tanks you also are most reliant on your healer you cant just be like term who manages his siphon a bit and then can always just throw himself in reverse gear when he needs healing until he gets it you need to be aware of where your healer is at all times also I see far too few people buy nimble on inara imo its usually the second item you should get along with caut
Attack Helicopter it’s just I don’t know which is her best talent or what items to buy or loadouts
@@sIeet in 99.5% of cases you should go mothers grace
In your loadout a card that is must have to have on 5 is the cooldown reduction on earthenguard you divide the remaining points up between the Max HP the card that heals on earthenguard the card that gives DR when standing in warders field
I personally play the magazine size card on 1 as a filler in every single deck but other people prefer the card thar gives +2 ammo on activation of warders field
Now on the complete loadouts: I have one which has the DR card on max and which doesnt have the self heal card I take it when I exspect to get a lot of damage onto me whilst also getting a lot of heal onto me I also play the cooldown reduction on the field in this deck
I then have a loadout which is for when I have a support that cant focusheal me like a jenos or a grover in that I play the self heal card I have to accept that I cant attack when I dont have earthenguard up but with those supports you just have to eat that bit of downtime anyway so you should just make the best out of it and survive anyway
I then also have a loadout that is kinda in the middle with 10% DR 50 heal per second on the earthenguard and full max HP I cant really explain when I pick it tho or why xc
@@sIeet for items its 99% of the time correct to rush caut maybe buy a little nimble very early on if you have to walk out of aoes (or enemy los) a lot might happen that you go against a barik who has a ton of healing on his turrets or are shooting at luna a lot so you might want Bulldozer early on
If you want more tankiness Id definetly recommend chronos over haven and also over rejuvinate most of the times because it allows you to proc a better healing boost and Dr more often which also to the best of my knowledge doesnt stack well with the other DRs or healing boosts
Usually I end up with caut nimble chronos and rejuv in that order tho i often buy the first tier of rejuv earlier because I happen to spawn with about 150 credits left but when you get to buying those items you should usually have caut 3 already and at least nimble 2
I use makoa as flank xD
This is my main ^^
Wait 5 comments no-one?
First
2nd
We need a Fernando guide. I'm tired of seeing Aegis in ranked
Its probably his best talent after the buff
It is the only good talent he has, and can work as a maintank and offtank. If there isnt any other option, he can be a somewhat decent pick. He can still be aggressive with it and make space.
Is makoa ok with 999 ping?
No lol, you need low ping since both his hook and cannon are projectiles.
Why you bully drogoz?
He tried to punch me ;-;
Simple you hide behind your team so you don't die
As a main drogoz I was triggered
Who would win? The Dragon's Fury, or one jumpy turtle? ;)
@@AndrewChicken A jumpy turtle, definitely. Turtles are the best in any form.
Make a discord I’ll join it
i remember when i charged drogoz ulti with raum attack and kill him somehow.
