Here's another duel session for you guys. This is a "longer" video compared to my usual uploads, so don't feel obligated to watch the whole video. Added my webcam this time; It will help you see and understand my finger and combo movements as well which some of you guys requested. Let me know what you think!
Dang i miss these days. Loved watching you play fire mage. I remember i being soo proud when i got 1600 in twos during MOP i totally credited it to you. lol.
The commentated duels are some of my favorite vids you put out. Having you call out what your doing and your thought process behind it has bumped my fire game play up quite a bit thanks again.
Yeah, because in those videos you're very close to your community and you seem to be pretty chill and relax, having a good time with random dudes making some jokes etc.. 20mins is also a perfect timing, not too long, not to short.. Regards :)
Great video, Hansol! I don't normally comment or say anything but I'm a long time subscriber and a big fan. I think the first video of yours that I saw was when you first hit 2.2k back in cata. I'd just like to say that I've watched every one of your latest videos and have loved them all. I check my UA-cam subscriptions most days and seeing a new video makes my day! Keep up the good work and the webcam idea is great :)
Thanks SuperSpable! I recognize your name a lot around here as well! Love that you've been around for so long. This is the first comment you left me ever, haha: SuperSpable has made a comment on Fire Mage Battlegrounds - Chat about upcoming videos: You're very good at fighting 1vn effectively.
It's always nice to see you play Hansol and I love listening to your thought process, I think it is very helpful and it shows you know very well what you are doing and why you are doing it. Props men, no doubt
Hey Hansol Whats your losecontrol version? My timer is not at the centre of the icon. Also, how do you set the dot timer that shows below the target plate? Thanks!
Hi, Hansol. I am from China. Your videos have inspired me to play as a fire mage, though I play frost in 3s as my friends ask. I really like these duel videos, they help me understand other classes better.
I have a question Hansol The Pyromaniac When you poly any character with a pet then inferno blast the pet how does the inferno blast no catch the owner of the pet in the blast radius bringing say the dk, lock, or hunter out of poly because it seemed like the inferno blast would hit them at a close range. and i seem to have a problem where i Dragons Breath into poly then get proc from the pet but the inferno blast pops the owner out of poly...
Hi man I was just wondering wich are the best partners for fire mage in 2v2 if you wanted the highest rating possible. I was thinking about holy priest or is double dps better?
Hansol during the duel vs the combat rouge he was running burst of speed so he doesn't have shadow step. His burst ability killing spree causes him to teleport behind with you and deal 7 attacks. Even if you waited for him to appear in front of you he is immune to cc during these few seconds
In just 2 years, you went from being 1700 when 1700 was easier to get to being a 2600 rated rank one player. Very impressive and it gives me hope that I can also become good soon.
You seem like a really cool laid back humble dude, subscribed. Plus you made me want to roll a fire mage(he's like lvl 50 :/), I may not be as good as you I'm still learning how to counter other classes and I main a rogue so going from rogue to mage is a huge transition. I also subscribed because you're constantly putting out videos which is awesome.
Haha, really great vid man, btw that combat rogue was running burst of speed so he wasn't shadow stepping your breath, I think he was just lagging or using that offensive CD for combat that you teleport behind people with.
Hansol, how do you fight a hunter if you don't open with dragon's breath? Without that, I find that I am absolutely fucked. By the time I can even manage a poly I've been quickly worn down to at least half health and sometimes being forced to ice block. And I find that if I do open on hunters with dragon's breath, they all get into some frantic rage where they insist they get an opener on the "OP fire mage".
Hansol dude u did a video in which u showed the tactics and the preperation between tsg and fire play in which tsg won with an very funny preperation...u know what i mean please tell me the name
By the way i love the duel videos with commentary helps me understand first person on how to duel specific classes better. I noticed you didn't find a higher ranked hunter to duel though. So i was curious if you could maybe make a guide for 1v1 hunter? because i don't think i even saw stampede in that hunter duel or deterrence. anyways love the videos you make and as you say to your viewers keep burning shit.
Damnit Hansol, you force me to gear my mge it looks soooo fun! Will you be playing mage when WoD comes out? In the beta they have been nerfed to the ground!
Combat's killing spree makes 7 swift assaults within 2.5 sec. During the time, he's immune to CC (You didn't 'miss' DB he immuned it). If you can preblock the KS it's all good. The reason though why he pressured you so much is because you blocked right AFTER the KS giving him 30 sec of Hypothermia to use his Blades + Adrush on you. You'll be surprised at how awful combat's damage is outside CDs :> Overall amazing vid, props for the webcam aaand have a good day!
Hey hansol, first time i watched your videos was at the start of 4.3, i wanted to roll a mage and looked for a fire mage tutorial on youtube. Anyways i remember you had alot of videos that i can't find on your channel anymore, some even from early 2011 if i'm not mistaken, what happened to those videos man? Would be really cool if you could upload them for old times sake :D
Alright so I have a question for everyone. As a Fire Mage, my crit chance is about 50% with Critical Mass, so I crit all the time. The problem is, these pyroblasts do little to no damage. Anything I can do to remedy this?
The webcam is totally cool, bro. Lol. I knew you were Asian! Korean, if I recall correctly. Didn't you have a guild called, "Not pro, just Korean"? Anyway both the combat rogue in this vid and Nahj were both using bust of speed instead of shadow step. At least from what I saw. I wonder if they went BOS because they saw you running blazing speed? Awesome video as always, bro. I really enjoy the ones you commentate. Keep up the great work! Btw, lots of people think the female humans look better for a castor. I agree. My wife even gave me her nelf rogue(all her toons are female) who I play alll the time. I wish I had gone female on my human lock main sometimes, but not enough to pay any money. Lol.
I always do, but there are priorities such as applying barriers, or setting up for damage. Otherwise you may have to wait another 8 seconds but have run out of cc which will put you on the defensive side. There are always priorities that you must remember.
Hansol, you really should use the webcam more on your videos, really gives it more vibe when watching your videos, not on montages ofc but when your talking to viewers, if that makes any sense =)

You are korean ? :D
game back here for that old intro.... so nostalgic.... you were such an idol for me in mop
Hey, just to ask, do u start at WASD keys? or ESDF or other? That used for moving but give more space for more key binds, did u use different?
Dang i miss these days. Loved watching you play fire mage. I remember i being soo proud when i got 1600 in twos during MOP i totally credited it to you. lol.
The commentated duels are some of my favorite vids you put out. Having you call out what your doing and your thought process behind it has bumped my fire game play up quite a bit thanks again.
Actually i think that's the best type of video you've made from now so post some more man !
Haha srsly? wow, ok :)
Yeah, because in those videos you're very close to your community and you seem to be pretty chill and relax, having a good time with random dudes making some jokes etc.. 20mins is also a perfect timing, not too long, not to short.. Regards :)

SuperSpable has made a comment on Fire Mage Battlegrounds - Chat about upcoming videos:
You're very good at fighting 1vn effectively.
I miss old days MOP+gaming this is big nostalgia
Hansol i love you ❤❤
The camera idea is great ! Keep up the communication with your viewers.
Ok cool :)
I don't play mages but I like watching these videos to figure out what I should and shouldn't do versing a good mage.
Haha, that works
vs Mages you need to stay focused and always 1 step ahead. CC and Spellsteal management is important.
It's always nice to see you play Hansol and I love listening to your thought process, I think it is very helpful and it shows you know very well what you are doing and why you are doing it. Props men, no doubt
I like that you chose to use cam for this video. It felt appropriate and it was overall a very good video. Thanks!
I must say im impressed that you are able to make decisions in close situations very quickly and even comment them comprehensivly, good job!
Thanks! I'm still working on my live commentary while dueling. It is hard, but I will improve :)
Hey Hansol Whats your losecontrol version? My timer is not at the centre of the icon. Also, how do you set the dot timer that shows below the target plate? Thanks!
I like the camera thing it feels like watching your stream live right now and it feels more idk man it feels like youre closer to the community
I know this video is old; but how long did it take you to get full Season 15 PvP Gear?
Hi, Hansol. I am from China. Your videos have inspired me to play as a fire mage, though I play frost in 3s as my friends ask. I really like these duel videos, they help me understand other classes better.
Good shit! Happy to help
You are my favorite pvper to watch on UA-cam. I check your channel everyday.. And you inspire me to play fire! keep up the good work and videos!
Means a lot to me :*)
Epic video was always man.
Its not weird with the cam for a commentary it make the video better imo.
I have a question Hansol The Pyromaniac When you poly any character with a pet then inferno blast the pet how does the inferno blast no catch the owner of the pet in the blast radius bringing say the dk, lock, or hunter out of poly because it seemed like the inferno blast would hit them at a close range. and i seem to have a problem where i Dragons Breath into poly then get proc from the pet but the inferno blast pops the owner out of poly...
Hi man I was just wondering wich are the best partners for fire mage in 2v2 if you wanted the highest rating possible. I was thinking about holy priest or is double dps better?
To get high rating, playing with a healer is ideal. It's just boring sometimes. Play with a Rdruid, because Holy DRs your breath with chastise.
Good video Hansol! I really enjoyed it. The webcam is cool. I watch your live stream and keep up the good work!
Hansol good to see u showing your self in the video man
please always do that so we can feel the communication ^^
Thanks for this I enjoyed it. That little insight on hunters will help me out a ton!
Hansol during the duel vs the combat rouge he was running burst of speed so he doesn't have shadow step. His burst ability killing spree causes him to teleport behind with you and deal 7 attacks. Even if you waited for him to appear in front of you he is immune to cc during these few seconds
Keep up the good work man! I think the webcam for duels is a nice touch.
Thanks! I will continue it!
I remember when i first watched your videos. You were a badass looking human male with the cataclysmic Elite red gear it looked epic
I want to see Hansol vs Sodapoppin. Would be pretty cool to see.
Why..? Hansol already dueled the highest ranked Feral druid..
@Cristian Alijah This is some next level bot shit. Too bad I don't use instagram
In just 2 years, you went from being 1700 when 1700 was easier to get to being a 2600 rated rank one player. Very impressive and it gives me hope that I can also become good soon.
Thanks man! Hard work pays off for sure :)
how is the name of the song in the intro?
You seem like a really cool laid back humble dude, subscribed. Plus you made me want to roll a fire mage(he's like lvl 50 :/), I may not be as good as you I'm still learning how to counter other classes and I main a rogue so going from rogue to mage is a huge transition. I also subscribed because you're constantly putting out videos which is awesome.
Hansol on wich server are you palyin on PTR ? Wanna duel you ^^
Haha, really great vid man, btw that combat rogue was running burst of speed so he wasn't shadow stepping your breath, I think he was just lagging or using that offensive CD for combat that you teleport behind people with.
I've been following you for about year now but haven't had an account to sub you with. You're awesome and here is a sub and a like. Keep burning shit!
Hansol, how do you fight a hunter if you don't open with dragon's breath? Without that, I find that I am absolutely fucked. By the time I can even manage a poly I've been quickly worn down to at least half health and sometimes being forced to ice block. And I find that if I do open on hunters with dragon's breath, they all get into some frantic rage where they insist they get an opener on the "OP fire mage".
If you don't get a DB opener, you will lose if the hunter is half decent.
why do u never pop mirror images?
Hansol dude u did a video in which u showed the tactics and the preperation between tsg and fire play in which tsg won with an very funny preperation...u know what i mean please tell me the name
Yo! Could you please do a guide how to go against Frost Mages? My friend who's a frost mage has always been dueling me and kicking my butt. Thanks!
Love the cam man. Keep up the gd work
nice vid and thx for the cam its cool to see you once in a while :)
No this was perfect video, want at least Once a Week !!!

Yeah, I gotchu. Don't worry :)
Very interesting vid because you're telling us what you're doing. A lot of WoW youtubers should do that. THX a lot great vid

By the way i love the duel videos with commentary helps me understand first person on how to duel specific classes better. I noticed you didn't find a higher ranked hunter to duel though. So i was curious if you could maybe make a guide for 1v1 hunter? because i don't think i even saw stampede in that hunter duel or deterrence.
anyways love the videos you make and as you say to your viewers keep burning shit.
Loving your channel ! keep up these amazing videos!!!!!!
Damnit Hansol, you force me to gear my mge it looks soooo fun! Will you be playing mage when WoD comes out? In the beta they have been nerfed to the ground!

Happy to hear it. Thanks! :) More to come!

Combat's killing spree makes 7 swift assaults within 2.5 sec. During the time, he's immune to CC (You didn't 'miss' DB he immuned it). If you can preblock the KS it's all good.

You'll be surprised at how awful combat's damage is outside CDs :> Overall amazing vid, props for the webcam aaand have a good day!
Okay, I had no idea. Thank you for your input! :)
another great vid. You're my favorite wow youtuber. You are great at explaining things . I like the web cam thing too
Awesome skill, another great vid!!!
Hey hansol, first time i watched your videos was at the start of 4.3, i wanted to roll a mage and looked for a fire mage tutorial on youtube. Anyways i remember you had alot of videos that i can't find on your channel anymore, some even from early 2011 if i'm not mistaken, what happened to those videos man? Would be really cool if you could upload them for old times sake :D
Had to delete them when I got partnered due to copyright issues :*( A sad day it was.
Alright so I have a question for everyone. As a Fire Mage, my crit chance is about 50% with Critical Mass, so I crit all the time. The problem is, these pyroblasts do little to no damage. Anything I can do to remedy this?
Keep your crit around 23-25% and with those crit gems gone go int haste
Will do. Thanks so much.
Your welcome and no problem. Good luck
Why do you put your UI at that size?
Because it's comfortable for me. How about you?
Dude,it is cool to have webcam in ur video!
u really have to do vids like this one..i really enjoyed it :) keep it up !!
i like the webcam for the duel sessions.
i enjoy it a lot even the chat conversation between u an other player , make more vid with cam it's nice
Thanks. I will :)
Do you play on EU or US?
The webcam is totally cool, bro. Lol. I knew you were Asian! Korean, if I recall correctly. Didn't you have a guild called, "Not pro, just Korean"? Anyway both the combat rogue in this vid and Nahj were both using bust of speed instead of shadow step. At least from what I saw. I wonder if they went BOS because they saw you running blazing speed? Awesome video as always, bro. I really enjoy the ones you commentate. Keep up the great work! Btw, lots of people think the female humans look better for a castor. I agree. My wife even gave me her nelf rogue(all her toons are female) who I play alll the time. I wish I had gone female on my human lock main sometimes, but not enough to pay any money. Lol.
How come its only in 360p for me?
UA-cam is still processing HD. Please be patient! It's taking longer than usual because the video is quite longer than usual I think :s
"Casting animation wise" suuure Hansol
lol! Looks much better than the male animations imo. It's a big part of it :)
I wonder why dont u spellsteal in other classes during the poly.
I always do, but there are priorities such as applying barriers, or setting up for damage. Otherwise you may have to wait another 8 seconds but have run out of cc which will put you on the defensive side. There are always priorities that you must remember.
Hansol, you really should use the webcam more on your videos, really gives it more vibe when watching your videos, not on montages ofc but when your talking to viewers, if that makes any sense =)
Okay! I will use it for just duel sessions :) I guess it's fitting.
by the way can you please do another 1vs2 arenas i really love to watch you owning noobs and it's been a very long time since you made one .
Ty very much hansol your plays inspire me
Np
Also, you should always use webcam. I hate when vids don't have cam
Nice video hansoul btw can u duel Thyraz the boomkin druid will be awsome if u did wana see who gona win keep gd work up
Love the vid like the webcam idea for dules.
which program do u record with?
Bandicam and Xsplit
When you were fighting that combat rogue he was actually using killing spree not shadow step on you and it makes him immune for a few seconds :)
You're awesome.. Simply
Nice video Hansol, I'm following you and trying to learn pvp as fire mage, also, I would like to see how to beat a frost mage! if it's possible!
Frost is extremely hard to beat as Fire, but I will try my best!
you should do a couple more with webcam is shows people your personality how the way you act with your character
i laughed so hard at some reaction and comments of those rdm people :)
when will see how to beat frost as fire mage ?
Cool video man, more like this! :)
