Hope you enjoy the duels I had with the current highest rated Elemental Shaman. He ended up beating me more than I won, and in my opinion he is an amazing player. The two wins that you see are the best wins that I got out of them all, so please don't think that the duels went down like that all the time. Some of the footage I recorded got corrupted so I wasn't able to add everything but I will go more in depth in the guide version.
Como siempre en estos vídeos empleas la mejor habilidad, no solo como mago sino que editando estos duelos, es emocionante xD y eligiendo esa música tan pro xd. Buen trabajo bro.
I remember watching your videos when you first started playing fire, and were only just around 2000 rating, its crazy seeing how much you have improved, playing against some of the best in WoW...
Hey Hansol, I just wanted to say that I've played wow for a collective 3 or so weeks now and I started a fire mage a few days ago, at whom I'm absolutely wretched with, but your videos are extremely helpful. The one thing I would ask, though, if you could make a video where you explain all of the fire mage's abilities and when to use them, which ones to use, etc. I generally find myself not knowing what to do during the times that my abilities are on CD from your bursts. Regardless, thank you so much for providing such high quality material completely free. I can't describe how great it is that you've done all of this. Keep it up sir.
I don't know Hansol, I'm not sure if you're trying to make youtube a career or not. It kills me that people like Swifty have so many subs, and so much support, but put out shit compared to the content you create. It's fun, informative, and at a level no other mage is at...I don't even play a mage and I love Hansol vids...you should be in Swifty's places, youtube isn't fair :]
Haha, thanks man. I like to believe that I will get there one day as long as I continue to produce content :) Also, Swifty really worked hard in the past to get to where he is now. His current content may not be the best, but he definitely went ham. People need to give him a break though as he is getting older and is running lower on creative juices. It's bound to happen. Anyways, your comment means a lot to me ^.^ Thanks.
nice video hansol, look forward too the guide version, would've been cool to see you duel zeepeye on EU instead but obviously one of you would have had latency issues
that ele shaman im sure he made u go mad he is op and his reputation is so high any way i enjoyed the video and cant wait for the guide although i know how to beat ele ^^
post the videos of you fighting him in the arena I really wanna see how u guys managed to beat lsd and let alone jahmillis lsd running fire god comp I watched it from his point of view but still idk how u killed him I cant land shit for kills on my fire mage.
first game feels like you're doing literally everything just scatter XD ice block nova's frost jaws anyways man nice games seems proper intense! thought those 2X 75k lava bursts were crazy
Because Fire only has burst during deep. I try to reset so I can let the cool down on deep reset so I can burst again. If we are just battling without my deep, I am bound to die before he does.
Good shit man! I know you already said don't ask. But how on earth do you go about beating a hunter, they really destroy me... If not hunter, warrior tips? I'm not sure what to do if they survive the pom, alter time, deep combo.. Keep the videos coming!
Go look at at the arena ladders on the official website for living proof. Anyways, if you payed any attention to high rated arena, you would know who he is already haha..
Hansol I meant no disrespect to you but the ladder means nothing when I've seen better, then again I'm a low rated scrub and my opinion and experience of 10+ years doesn't matter. But i do apologize for the outburst but I stand by what I said. I also apologize for not having the ambition and want to achieve anything on the ladder I just don't care or have the time.
MrWrake it doesnt matter if u know how to play ur class. no matter what u will have trouble. if u can link me any video showing someone 1V1 a WW and doesnt drop to 50%, then u're correct.
good duels, i usually play fire or arcane my self but i have decided to gear my ele shaman for this season and really enjooying the style of play. so much so that im even contemplating leaving my mage for a while :(
Wow, those duels were amazing, although I think it would have been easier for you if you had dueled in an arena to get the full battle fatigue so he wouldn't have been able to heal himself as much.
Alter time a little bit earlier, generally you have great and intense duel. I found you just learned a new trick which is used in Chinese server long time ago. Stand close enough to cast sheep+nova, effect incapable+freeze
Hansol Well. I actually did not watch the add :D. Didnt know that you are getting something outof it. I swear next time I wont skip those adds :D. ps. Keep burnin' shit! (c) Hansol
YEEEEEEES IVE BEEN WAITING TO SEE THIS FROM UR POINT OF VIEW !!!when I watched u play jahmilli I was like omfg I cant believe u guys pulled it off and then I wasa like ok maybey that was luck but then u fucking beat him again lol when hes running lsd hansol bro u best mage to ever play trhis game hands down or up!
He does purge me a lot. He just couldn't do it in the duels where I had a lot of pressure on him. I'll be showing the duels where he purges my pom, alter, and pyros in the guide version. Coming soon!
Oh ok thx hansol i love ur vids and how u play but i think you should show more matches not only the ones where you win cause no ascendance neither purge makes it doubtful
if You Deep & instantly CS him he cannot shamanistic rage off the Deep, every player above 1.7k rating knows that, also if you're below 30% hp you can't focus on purging off all shit the opponent has...
I agree Jahmilli played that pretty bad. But then again, I don't think he had that many free globals to spend >_< Also, Jahmilli uses the Hex glyph instead of the Shamanistic Rage glyph, and I don't think he really wanted to change glyphs and talents just for a duel.
I understand the strategy of poly-spam but such a scumlord strat. "I'm going to not let you play your toon, while I build my burst. " One thing I'm enjoying is all of these Fire Mages popping up again. Then the next thing I'm loving is Alpha Notes... they are proving to be a worthy foe of mages.
That is how u have to play to kick ass it's also a good strategy to do if u are good enough to spam poly and not break it even when panicking. Plus, elementals have a crazy burst if u don't stop them.
Didn't you say you use the ratio of win loss of the actual duels in the vid? Like if you win only 30%, only 30% of duels in vid will be wins from your side? Son, i am disapoint...
I've decided to change that for entertainment purposes. I will always leave the information of the wins and losses in the description, so that way everyone can get an insight of the raw duels. I also always go more in depth on the commentary version. Also, I wasn't able to get too many interesting duels this time. We didn't duel for as long as I had hoped compared to all the other sessions I had. He was doing RBGs in between the duels so it was hard to get some good ones as well. A lot of the ones he won were long dragged out duels where he kept healing which I thought would not be too interesting to watch. Hope you understand! Thanks :)
Hansol Allright man, sounds understandable... Just wanted to point it out, still pretty nice duels... Anyways doesnt he have an upper hand dueling like this outside of arena ? No Battle fatigue in place etc. I think wargaming to duel is way better since its enviroment everyone knows, and it acts like competetive pvp enviroment.
KrasusDB battle fatigue really dosnt matter in a duel with a ele and fire mage, such a bursty comp, wont even get to it, and the shammy would have more of an advantage in arena since he can windwalk behind pillars to heal then
Actually, he beat me more than I won. The two wins I saw were the best wins I got. Hardly any of the duels actually went that way. I will go more in depth in my next video with how he counters me
Im pretty sure Zeepeye the shaman on eu thats 2920 + is most likely better than this shaman. Also compared to Zeepeyes rating this shaman isn't close to r1 but EU and US always have this problem.
1. Higher rating does not equal skill. EU has rating inflation. The bracket is more active in EU then it is in US. Not to mention by the end of this current season both US and EU had players at 3200 plus. Finally, I have nothing against Venruki but he is far from being the top mage on US. Samiyam for example, was able to get 3k on US as well as 3k on EU.
Hansol you dont know the joke hansolxD.....BTW sick video liek always...been around since cata and u improved so much.Keep it up^...expecting a video with thyraz soon :D
and ele didn't really attack most of the time.. he kept trying to heal.. i think he was mainly a backup healer to get that rating then... like running a boom/ele/healer comp so that the boom and ele can heal is tough spots
it is a duel.. it isn't top ranking arena.. and winning an arena without popping your cds or doing any dmg at all would be impossible.. he seemed to only attack when he got an instant which i understand... but even after he was silenced he continued healing...
Kian Leonard jahmilli backup healer? what u talking bout, he plays yolo style... and boom/ele/healer for R1? LSD mate lol, that's why his name is dampener, cause LSD is OP with dampening you know
Sadly I was watching the stream when this was happening a while ago and jah was just being a silly jah nearly just spamming heals the whole time :/.Wish he would actually take some stuff seriously.
Hope you enjoy the duels I had with the current highest rated Elemental Shaman. He ended up beating me more than I won, and in my opinion he is an amazing player. The two wins that you see are the best wins that I got out of them all, so please don't think that the duels went down like that all the time. Some of the footage I recorded got corrupted so I wasn't able to add everything but I will go more in depth in the guide version.
aRE yu AsIaN mi is asain
You make me afraid to play with Fire
dont worry sham huntards and wars is op
Props for admitting, shame we couldn't see :P
Tyrion Lannister not really, mage counters ele all around. Shaman has like 2! Yes 2 cc's. And mage... Well its mage. Absorbs...
Como siempre en estos vídeos empleas la mejor habilidad, no solo como mago sino que editando estos duelos, es emocionante xD y eligiendo esa música tan pro xd. Buen trabajo bro.
great duels man. I love this series! especially seeing jah too
Thanks! He was a hard one
I remember watching your videos when you first started playing fire, and were only just around 2000 rating, its crazy seeing how much you have improved, playing against some of the best in WoW...
Thanks man! My channel has always been about showing my progression of my Fire Mage. I will only start improving from here on out!
Hansol Why didn't you go against takenotezz?
Hey Hansol, I just wanted to say that I've played wow for a collective 3 or so weeks now and I started a fire mage a few days ago, at whom I'm absolutely wretched with, but your videos are extremely helpful.

Nice vid again Hansol! Was also wondering if Dampener put out a video on his point of view, it would be nice to see it from both sides.
Awesome, two of my favorite players dueling!
I don't know Hansol, I'm not sure if you're trying to make youtube a career or not. It kills me that people like Swifty have so many subs, and so much support, but put out shit compared to the content you create.

right

Anyways, your comment means a lot to me ^.^ Thanks.
hello,
I'd like to question about some web or chanel of the elemental shaman, 'cause i can found nothing about him.
Thanks U.
Awesome video as always, cannot wait for the guide, i'm struggling with shamans in general!
your sense of cds and burst strategy is pretty good though, I like your videos
just a question. Why not use mirror image around 3:41 ;)?. But I love this series of course!;)
ma boi Jah.
Hey hansol what is the name of your intro song? love it very much
What's in your opinion Hansol, the best thing in fire mage ?
Dragon's Breath and burst
Alter time still exist, it will just be a Talent
As always, great video! Damn interesting to watch you duel skillcapped players
Thanks! Tons more on it's way
what sound plays in the beginning? on the splash screen
Really nice series dude! the duels are entertaining and the guides are helpfull. I hope u do duel videos in WOD as soon as u figure out the class.
Excited to hear it :) Yeah, I will be doing them in WoD too so don't worry ;)
i rly enjoyed but toooo short for me bro :( i wanted more of these epic duels and epic music hope next time will be long !
Hansol! What's ur theme song?
nice video hansol, look forward too the guide version, would've been cool to see you duel zeepeye on EU instead but obviously one of you would have had latency issues
Nice duels man, Good work :D
that ele shaman im sure he made u go mad
he is op and his reputation is so high
any way i enjoyed the video and cant wait for the guide although i know how to beat ele ^^
very nice duels and fun to watch as always ♥
post the videos of you fighting him in the arena I really wanna see how u guys managed to beat lsd and let alone jahmillis lsd running fire god comp I watched it from his point of view but still idk how u killed him I cant land shit for kills on my fire mage.
when do you stream?
Bebepx don't play now (
What can u say about Livin ?
Will u duel fire Mage ?
I noticed you used Spellsteal to steal his insta Lava Bursts. Is that what you gotta focus on dueling a Ele Shaman?
first game feels like you're doing literally everything just scatter XD ice block nova's frost jaws anyways man nice games seems proper intense! thought those 2X 75k lava bursts were crazy
Really nice !!!
But 1 question why do you poly so often when you have some 1 at 50% hp ???
Because Fire only has burst during deep. I try to reset so I can let the cool down on deep reset so I can burst again. If we are just battling without my deep, I am bound to die before he does.
Loving these duel vids!
Good shit man! I know you already said don't ask. But how on earth do you go about beating a hunter, they really destroy me...
If not hunter, warrior tips?
I'm not sure what to do if they survive the pom, alter time, deep combo..
Keep the videos coming!
Hunters are extremely hard. Realistically you shouldn't beat one but I can give you some tips in a future video.
Hansol That'd be awesome
Hey hansol i would like to know what software are you using for recording your gameplay!?? Thank and keep doing those
Nice vid enjoying every vids
Bandicam
What is elem BURST ?(
3:20 - 3:52 I didn't breathe ! lol insanely close gg san
Haha, I tried so hard D:
Really loving this series, it's "fire"
that shaman is rank one? I HIGHLY Doubt it...
Go look at at the arena ladders on the official website for living proof. Anyways, if you payed any attention to high rated arena, you would know who he is already haha..
''That" shaman is probably the best overall pvper in the game.....
Jason Powers True
"He ended up beating me more than I won, and in my opinion he is an amazing player." - Hansol....
Think before commenting stuff like that :p
Hansol I meant no disrespect to you but the ladder means nothing when I've seen better, then again I'm a low rated scrub and my opinion and experience of 10+ years doesn't matter. But i do apologize for the outburst but I stand by what I said. I also apologize for not having the ambition and want to achieve anything on the ladder I just don't care or have the time.
Great duel vs a Resto shaman.
i don't play wow anymore but i really enjoy your vids man...subbed
Gratz on 50k subs! :D
Thank you! We've made it so far! ^.^
Hansol ^^ :D Np mate keep it up!
u need it to win 4:12 ? well, in all fairness ele shams are pretty hard for most casters, and if there are pillars to LOS forget about it!
Sethcurry you said it seth!
Waw Hansol you're so strong,i'm really impressed.
elem just dont got the tools to counter burst/cc vvhore classes, sadly
I mostly agree, ele is sick in 3s, because of its utility and sustained dmg...but 1v1 they feel very weak, against my monk and my hunter.
Dan Smoke monk and hunter... I'm pretty sure nearly all classes have trouble with those two classes this season.
Isshin Thao not if you can play your class
MrWrake
it doesnt matter if u know how to play ur class. no matter what u will have trouble. if u can link me any video showing someone 1V1 a WW and doesnt drop to 50%, then u're correct.
please do guide on rogue duel
It will come eventually. Please be patient :)
good duels, i usually play fire or arcane my self but i have decided to gear my ele shaman for this season and really enjooying the style of play. so much so that im even contemplating leaving my mage for a while :(
Thanks! Have fun!
... i dont know its such a hard choice, i love fire but ele is so fun.... first world problems hey Hansol
Wow, those duels were amazing, although I think it would have been easier for you if you had dueled in an arena to get the full battle fatigue so he wouldn't have been able to heal himself as much.
Thanks. I'm sure in duels there is no fatigue either
Dampener is actually Jahmilli. I think people know him as "Jahmillitko".
Best fire mage plays!
Thanks!
Alter time a little bit earlier, generally you have great and intense duel. I found you just learned a new trick which is used in Chinese server long time ago. Stand close enough to cast sheep+nova, effect incapable+freeze
Yo dude Nice job!! Btw wats you block Macro?
Just stopcasting then Ice Block
Anyone else see that conversation going on in the second duel?
Hey Hansol, do you get s/t from UA-cam if I dont skip add?
P.S Great video :)
Yup. Thank you!
Hansol Well. I actually did not watch the add :D. Didnt know that you are getting something outof it. I swear next time I wont skip those adds :D.
ps. Keep burnin' shit! (c) Hansol
Shaman couldn't spam enough of healing surge if he tried lol...
pls Hansol can you fight Ozz i heard he is rank 1 destro lock it would be epic!
surprising since ele actually has to cast and has no blanket silence or a million cc lol
My hero :) I love how u burn shit like an maniac :)
is this jah?
YEEEEEEES IVE BEEN WAITING TO SEE THIS FROM UR POINT OF VIEW !!!when I watched u play jahmilli I was like omfg I cant believe u guys pulled it off and then I wasa like ok maybey that was luck but then u fucking beat him again lol when hes running lsd hansol bro u best mage to ever play trhis game hands down or up!
You didnt let him play the game
Healing Surge,Healing Surge,Healing Surge-Healing Surge damn lets 1 Lava Burst shall we??? Ohh lets spam Healing Surge again that was hard ^^ {Gj r1 ele}
nice vid as always =) and fucking sick music
Dope bro )
Thanks! More to come.
I see you got that nova poly trick down
first duel, 8 pyro blasts in a row Waaow
What? Ele not purging you and neither using elemental fury or whatever its called to take off deeps dafuq eles in eu do it even at 1.7 rate
He does purge me a lot. He just couldn't do it in the duels where I had a lot of pressure on him. I'll be showing the duels where he purges my pom, alter, and pyros in the guide version. Coming soon!
Oh ok thx hansol i love ur vids and how u play but i think you should show more matches not only the ones where you win cause no ascendance neither purge makes it doubtful
Hansol Sounds awesome :D
if You Deep & instantly CS him he cannot shamanistic rage off the Deep, every player above 1.7k rating knows that, also if you're below 30% hp you can't focus on purging off all shit the opponent has...
I agree Jahmilli played that pretty bad. But then again, I don't think he had that many free globals to spend >_<
Also, Jahmilli uses the Hex glyph instead of the Shamanistic Rage glyph, and I don't think he really wanted to change glyphs and talents just for a duel.
Dampener didn't acsendance once through all those duels
i know what was up with that???
I understand the strategy of poly-spam but such a scumlord strat. "I'm going to not let you play your toon, while I build my burst. "
One thing I'm enjoying is all of these Fire Mages popping up again.
Then the next thing I'm loving is Alpha Notes... they are proving to be a worthy foe of mages.
and every other class...
That is how u have to play to kick ass it's also a good strategy to do if u are good enough to spam poly and not break it even when panicking. Plus, elementals have a crazy burst if u don't stop them.
Did he purge you once? Lol
Dampener is jahmilli for people that have not really heard of him before
Yup. It said in the intro, haha
my mistake, present of mind frost jaw, you don't have nova, ignore me
Hansol VS Thuganomicx (highest destruction lock)
Or hansol vs revolutio (highest unholy dk)
Yes. Will do
jahmilli jahmilli jahmilli

Btw The shaman is jahmili
Lol, looking at this you'd think fire mage was the hard counter to ele shaman.
Poor bugger..
Actually, he beat me more than I won. The two wins I saw were the best wins I got. Hardly any of the duels actually went that way. I will go more in depth in my next video with how he counters me
Im pretty sure Zeepeye the shaman on eu thats 2920 + is most likely better than this shaman. Also compared to Zeepeyes rating this shaman isn't close to r1 but EU and US always have this problem.
EU is trash compared to US plz go home ur drunk
1. Higher rating does not equal skill. EU has rating inflation. The bracket is more active in EU then it is in US. Not to mention by the end of this current season both US and EU had players at 3200 plus. Finally, I have nothing against Venruki but he is far from being the top mage on US. Samiyam for example, was able to get 3k on US as well as 3k on EU.
Leeroynumanuma Zeepeye is lightyears better than jahmilli on shaman. Not really a argument there.
+Twink Skill Capped (TSC) I agree wth you. I was responding to the person above me.
Leeroynumanuma ah right.
best intro
you waste the first of your present of mind pyro in your third duel
Well played
Thanks
so did u 2s with chanimal :p
Nope. Didn't even notice his whisper until after when I started editing, lol
1 shot Marco???:)
2 words : Dampener
word
Hansol you dont know the joke hansolxD.....BTW sick video liek always...been around since cata and u improved so much.Keep it up^...expecting a video with thyraz soon :D
I am looking forward for the keyboard give away i hope i have a good chance to win. Anyway good video as always,
Nice vid man and a like all the time.
Nice one sir.
mmmmm nice duels next time Hansol vs Xaryu ? :-D frost vs fire :-P gogo hansol i love you
Frost is very hard to beat as Fire but I will try to fight Venruki
Dampener = Jahmilli for those who didn't know
VS WARRIOR AND ROGUES HANSOL!
Crazy video very GOOD c)
well done!
Congrats :D
you double iceblock in a duel you lose as a mage
What do you mean?
1v1 Shamguard :D
Affi lock next :D
Good games Hansol sick ass CC, but Ja's mage would counter the shit out of you haha
Thanks. I would agree, I would prob get farmed haha. I got wrecked by his Shaman a lot too, so I wouldn't doubt it.
That Hansol is so hot right now
no ascendance tho
and ele didn't really attack most of the time.. he kept trying to heal.. i think he was mainly a backup healer to get that rating then... like running a boom/ele/healer comp so that the boom and ele can heal is tough spots
Kian Leonard hes the top ranked shammy i dont think they run around pop ham all the time
it is a duel.. it isn't top ranking arena.. and winning an arena without popping your cds or doing any dmg at all would be impossible.. he seemed to only attack when he got an instant which i understand... but even after he was silenced he continued healing...
Kian Leonard this is Jahmilli on an alt... he's no backup healer.
he's multi rank one on many classes
Kian Leonard jahmilli backup healer? what u talking bout, he plays yolo style... and boom/ele/healer for R1? LSD mate lol, that's why his name is dampener, cause LSD is OP with dampening you know
I love it!
Sadly I was watching the stream when this was happening a while ago and jah was just being a silly jah nearly just spamming heals the whole time :/.Wish he would actually take some stuff seriously.
No he was not. He was pwning me, lol. You'll see in the commentary version
you're a fucking boss! love it
Thank you!
no problem man :D!
nice duels, ggg
