I could listen to Soundsmith gush over all the eastereggs, how production went, and how talented and amazing all his friends are for an unreasonably long time. I don't think he knows how much power they really have. I can safely say for a considerable period of time all I saw were forceanature scunts, c&d trolling spies, and huntsman snipers you can track on soundsmith's uploads like a moon phase date chart.
i remember my first pin ever. i shot him twice more because i assumed i missed and he just jumped from surprise. then i saw him rage in chat and remembered it was the same engine in half life 2 and the crossbow does the same thing.
I accidentally killed a soldier, pinned him, thought he was alive, shot in his direction and I killed a random heavy... Oh! And I screenshot the two pinned ragdolls
I do love that everyone is so nice towards huntsman snipers. As was said, it’s absolutely because getting shot from mid to close range with a projectile just feels less bullshit than getting deleted from the other side of the map, and feels like the sniper had to manage positioning, moving, evading, and predicting instead of just Click On Head.
OH HEY THAT'S ME AT 24:48 For context, I had recently joined a competitive 6s team and was basically told "go play pubs and get better." So I hopped into Uncletopia because no crits, only to get completely rolled by unbalanced teams. Definitely a compounding of frustrations and tilt at my own lack of abilities mixed with the pub coinflip factor. The existential crisis I had at 10:00 because I've been in a depression zombie state just "going through the motions" for 3 years and have just now snapped out and started pursuing my goals and dreams again actually brought me to tears. Thanks AuralAcolyte :)
I’ve never been one for the whole “set up camp and wait” method of playing, but I’m also bad at quickscoping. The Huntsman is genuinely the most fun way to play Sniper, imo
People *heavily* underestimate power of melee weapons. There is so many games where if you shoot your primary all the time, the game punishes you or makes fun of you. Or, the games' primaries suck in comparison to melee's.
I really like the ongoing "classical painting but TF2" theme for the thumbnails, and I look forward to seeing what the other weapons get (for however many that is, I'm not sure)
"You will never be more than a Lucksman spammer." Was an amazing line, the whole lead up with the Gris music, God that was so good, i rewatch it frequently.
I don't know how, and I don't know when, but I aspire to one day referentially say "I beseech you, stop firing upon the arsonist" in a non-TF2-related conversation that it makes sense in.
10:10 Using the dispenser screen and pairing it with an actual heartbeat monitor sound. Those jokes usually don’t work on me, but that actually freaked me out. Nice job.
The whole jocat situation genuinely baffles me. Like there's actual pedophile youtubers who were harassed less than he was for doing literally nothing controversial
As someone who really likes the huntsman I still would've been perfectly fine with just the backburner vid. Really went above and beyond for this one and both of them are some of your best work.
this also proves that most ragers in games are new people who don't know how to play the game and take it out on other players when they get mad cuz they died.
I always appreciate your behind the scenes videos for these. There's always so much more work than I realize and it's cool to see how much actually went into these. Not to mention all of the stuff that didn't make it. Also, JoCat's "SMITE!" is pretty much iconic by this point. But it also makes me sad knowing what happened to the poor guy.
@@bootyman20 If you're talking about the "I Like Girls" animation, people being stupid about it bubbles up on regular cycle and he definitely didn't quit from it, he just uploaded something like 2 weeks ago.
@@DraconisLeonidas "I'm going to finish up and release a few projects, but then I'm taking an indefinite break from creating content." that sounds like quitting to me, paired with a google document that has the phrase "i quit" in it 23 times
The anount of effort put into these is apparent in the videos but I'm also so glad all the stuff I missed I can see here. I rewatch the Mann's guides a lot so appreciating them more is awesome
I love the different freeze frame faces in the video especially the angry one from the lack of stats or the laughing one from the funny ragdoll. The huntsman was probably my favorite one of the series so far
I always watch the actual Mann's Guide episode with monkey brain on and just enjoy the gags that are on the surface, but these behind the scenes videos are always a delight to watch, both because you manage to be hilarious while candid like this and it helps me learn what I missed! Mann's Guide is my favorite series on UA-cam right now, and I hope you keep making them, so long as you like doing so (unlike stereotypes).
Just wanted to get in to say that your thumbnails are incredibly appreciated, I never even noticed the sniper logo as part of the frame. Parody of fine art is one of my favourite types of artwork. Your references and easter eggs are also fantastic, even though I barely seen some of them. Now I can appreciate these videos even more! Your work just seems to be getting better and better! Keep it up but be sure to not tire yourself out!
Honestly the whole "art as the thumbnail" thing you guys have going is one of my favorite parts about the series, it's always really well done and creative
The extras for the Goku bit at the very end killed me. That was so damn funny. Really like the Easter eggs being pointed out like this. I never would have caught most of those.
_"You skip the ad because you don't like sponsors."_ _"I skip the ad because I'm easily convinced and already have all of these sponsors,"_ *_"We are not the same."_*
god I love your opera gx theme, every other one I've used has had terrible sounds for simply using the browser, yours is incredibly satisfying. You really live up to your channel name lmao. (AND I MEAN ETHANS MOD NOT THE MEME ONE)
I love the idea that behind the scenes and extra clips are separate videos, people who just want funny ragdolls go to extra clips but people who want to see and learn a little about video making watch behind the scenes. It’s fun, I like it.
10:57 - I like how the thumbnail looks a LOT! I think it's very stylish and the classy serif font over the white wall gives me DK's Eyewitness aesthetic vibes, which is a graphic designer high I've chased ever since I played their game adaptations as a kid.
@@sonnytapman DK is "Dorling Kindersley" a British company that published a series of educational books called the Eyewitness series. The books have a distinctive design that was kept when they were given a tv series adaptation and several video game adaptations. DK books are also a part of the "Utopian Scholastic" aesthetic.
Great video! Even though I might not have noticed or understood all the hidden references and details, it's cool to see there's so much love, care and attention put in the Mann's Guide videos. Also, man you could fill a whole museum with all those funny ragdolls haha
I honestly love these vids just as much as the actual Mann's Guides themselves. And not just the extra clips, I love hearing about all of the work and process done in the background, and great to see shout-outs to all the people that help out.
I love behind the scenes stuff so much. Loved them with lazy's stuff, and I love them here too. Also good touch on using Miitopia Greenhorne theme, one of my favorite vibe themes
I personally cannot wait for an hour-long huntsman montage from you. Even if it doesn't end up being that long, I'll always appreciate more huntsman content from you. Behind your trolldier stuff, it's easily my second favorite video style for you. Also, if you ever end up making another DRG video, I feel the need to point out that there IS technically a shovel pickaxe blade in the game: The back blade of the Reaper's Claw set, unlocked through assignments. You can also randomly find the Hole Digger back blade in lost packs, but I feel like Reaper's Claw is closer to what you want.
Stung a little to see JoCat, still cant get over how so many people just decided to swarm him for a silly little harmless video and actually force him off the platform. I hope he is doing better now.
Can't edit my previous comment, but I have now read Jocat's post. My god, people are such arseholes. "Somebody on internet is wrong - time to send death threats and doxx??" This is just sad
Yeah. Although, it really wasn't his video. It was pretty much just TERFs using the video as a thinly veiled excuse to attack another prominent person who supports trans rights. Hopefully, he'll be able to return someday and be able to continue to do the stuff that he loves.
God I fucking love the behind the scenes stuff, it really helps me appreciate the videos more, plus it’s just nice hearing you so genuinely passionate rock on smithman
ive rewatched the huntsman video many times, way more than any other manns guide, the backwards structure of it is pretty much exactly why i love it so much and im glad you went with it!
I legit did not realise how much effort went into these videos when it came to easter eggs. I loved seeing all the little details and gags in the sfm bits. You guys are amazing and extremely creative XD.
Favorite part about these behind the scenes videos is soundsmith just talking about and complimenting all of the cool stuff that his coworkers/friends did to help make the video come together. Great way to show off all the different parts and things that go into the videos.
I really enjoyed both the videos you talked about and also you talking about them. It's a nice novelty to get some insight into the production after seeing the final product.
The production behind these two episodes of man's guide is amazing; I love watching this as much as the episode itself, just seeing how these episodes are incredibly put together through the combined episodes of so many people is amazing.
I actually kinda like having all the sfm bits in at the end, with the extra footage being its own thing. Also, since the huntsman video, sniper is quickly rising in my most played class list, having a lot of fun with it!
Drawing thumbnails off of classic paintings is so cultured. Kudos! (and other references lol) And you shouting out all the friends that helped you make these is very admirable.
To be honest I love the behind the scenes more than I love Mann’s Guide! I love how you did the thumbnail for both videos and I love hearing everything that went into the video. Thank you Soundsmith and keep it up!
I love when you talk about the extra details you put into these, not only because theyre cool to notice but the pride and excitement in your voice when you talk about them shows the passion you have for making such high quality content.

The Huntsman video was so freaking great. At the same time, I have never felt a single bit of dissapointment with any of your Mann's guide videos, and I love them all. Keep up the good work, and shaking up the formula. Its funny! (:
I noticed something that might Surprise you: At 28:24 , you can see that the Heavy's eyes flash yellow as the peace symbol unusual floats in front of his face, as if Heavy's eyes are green screens.
For what it's worth, I really liked both the other thumbnails and the painting on a wall type thumbnail for the Huntsman. They are all super neat and classy.
I don't really have anything to say here. Other than your regular Opera GX mod has killer sound effects (Seriously I wold love more mods of just various sound designs of yours, its just so good I love it).

The only thing I can say about the thumbnails is they DON'T MISS, including the huntsman one, I genuinely find all of them really cool.
For what it's worth, I really liked both the other thumbnails and the painting on a wall type thumbnail for the Huntsman. They are all super neat and classy.

I don't really have anything to say here. Other than your regular Opera GX mod has killer sound effects (Seriously I wold love more mods of just various sound designs of yours, its just so good I love it).
