Great commentary on the fight. I always enjoy seeing the thought process in pvp since for me I just tend to fight and cap without too much strategy; something I'm trying to get better at overall.
I love your videos man. You are the reason I'm started to spam Vindicator. I've always been an Herald diehard and I really never got invested into Vindicator. But I have fun by winning and outplaying the enemy, be in PvP or WvW, and for that Herald simply doesn't hold against Necromancers, Willbenders or anything that spams conditions or CC. Vindicator on the other hand is the Class.
Awesome, thanks very much for the nice comment. Herald will always have a spot in my heart. It was THE rev build for so long and has such cool animations and skills. But vindi is just a bit stronger though. The built in condi cleanse and a +35% damage modifier is too strong to pass up. I will still jump on herald for fun though!
@@homage3 yeah 🤣 I was like "if they lose that I'm gonna be maaaad AF!" Because I've been in the same tight situation where the whole game collapsed on my team although we had a huge advantage most of the game and still managed to throw the win to the trash 🤣
nice commentary, cool to see the US perspective on pvp too! Decent macro, pretty good teamwork too! Individual skill not amazing from all players and builds don't seem very viable but very cool to see! Looking forward to more
Thanks very much. I assume you play on the EU servers? EU games I've watched definitely seem to be more tryhard. More people on meta builds, good teamwork. The NA scene is a bit of a mixed bag for what you get. That's kinda ok with me though I don't really take the game all that serious
Why didn't you use the "Rally the crowd" buff at all during the game ? Is there something I don't know because I usually use it as soon as I get it without thinking about it.
@@nautilaz I play a bunch of classes, but Rev is by far my favourite. I'm unsure of anyone currently doing Ele commentary on UA-cam. I know Grimjack streams on twitch and often time talks thru his gameplay and rotations as he's playing. Not enough people are uploading this style of video IMO!
@homage3 i had a bit of a breakthrough on core rev on wvw if u run diviner with leadership Runes, shiro and jalis stance, staff and s/s worked better for me, damage trinkets to get above 200% crit damage, holds up fairly well.
@@maxu4615 that's awesome. There was a guy named Za Shaloc that used to upload CRAZY core rev montages on youtube. You should check him out. I always liked core rev until they took the F2 and gave it to vindi :(
I like both! Dual swords was the ONLY option for Rev for many years before the greatsword came out so I've got a good amount of time with them and they feel comfortable to me. I should do a video on Rev weapons soon.
To be honest with you it depends on how good the thief is haha. But here's a couple tips. - use terrain and jump onto places where they cant teleport onto you - keep attacking when they enter stealth because you can still damage them while they're invisible - pray that they're bad lol
Can I make a request? Would it be too much trouble to add a commentary on one of these videos about the skills you activate, in which order and why? At least to cover some basic scenarios? Even at .25 speed, it is hard to figure out what is going on since the feedback on the UI is clumsy and barely noticeable. I keep watching the videos and all of sudden your opponent drops to 25% life left and it is not clear what attacks did that (specially since many on the hammer have a delay).
This is an excellent request. I'm going to use this exact idea for a video and I'll give you a shout out for the suggestion. Any ideas on what to title it?
@@homage3 I was thinking this is pretty basic stuff. But after a bit of reflection, it think it is not. Basic would be explaining each individual skill or a few ready-made combinations. But applying them in combat on each specific circumstance is a lot more complex. I think something titled "bringing it all together" would be appropriate.
@@homage3 ahh ok you knew that from looking at the leaderboards beforehand I’m assuming. We’ll, good on you for marching with them and holding your own!
It's an interesting match up. Vindi can get overwhelmed by conditions pretty quickly because they have limited cleanse. Necros can get caught out of position and shut down by vindi because of the high mobility and damage. So it can come down to the skill and positioning of the individual players. In this vid the enemy necro is on core, which is a little more tanky and a tougher nut to crack than reaper - generally speaking.
@@homage3 ahh i see...i mostly try to keep my distance from them but they can tp to me and burst me...well by watching ur vdos atleast i can learn what vindis do and how to avoid them 😂... great content
That was really fun to watch, don't usually like commentaries but you did a great job there addressing everything.
Thanks very much!

Thanks man I appreciate it! I'm a fan of your channel, if you ever need a duo or just some tips please hit me up! homage2783 on discord :)
haha if you are anything higher than 1350 rating, you're at risk of queueing into top 10 players. GW2 PvP in a nutshell.
Very true. We need more players!!!

I was so invested watching this till the very end 😂 great job explaining everything, it helps a lot reflecting on our dumb mistakes too 😊
Awesome, I'm glad you enjoyed. Definitely a nail biter down to the last second haha

Please do more videos with commentary, they are great for learning😉
I'm glad to hear it's helpful for ya. I'll be sure to do some more in the future :)

Good job mate, mistakes aside you carried hard that game, having clown on his alt solo queuing also helped. DE in coli is good rng.
Youle! You're the man! Thanks for the nice comment. Definitely had a great team to back me up and a little luck on my side haha.
Really good video and commentary.
Thanks for the continued support my friend!
Why didn't you use the "Rally the crowd" buff at all during the game ? Is there something I don't know because I usually use it as soon as I get it without thinking about it.
Haha I'm pretty sure I just forgot about it. Too worried about the game! But you're right I should have used it for the nice stat boost.
very nice video c:
Thank you! :)
good match. commentary is great
Thanks very much!
This is real content, love it
Hey thanks Lorina I appreciate it :)
P.S. pls stop farming me on your DH LOL
@@homage3 its been a while I dont play dh dw, but might get back at It soon! Hehe
😂 The man delivers
Liking your calm commentary on how you actually fight. Do you only play Rev? I've been searching for a similar commentary on an ele fight.
@@nautilaz I play a bunch of classes, but Rev is by far my favourite. I'm unsure of anyone currently doing Ele commentary on UA-cam. I know Grimjack streams on twitch and often time talks thru his gameplay and rotations as he's playing.
Not enough people are uploading this style of video IMO!
@@homage3 Very true. Usually queue obnoxious music, cut reel, and insert memes.
Sick gameplay 😎🤜🤛😎
Now do it again in core rev😈
I can hardly keep up with these guys on vindi hahaha I'd get rekt on core Rev. Gotta check out Shao Zapomni he's she core Rev GOAT

Good Work Im 2 months late tho lol, you did well homageee
nice! do you like swords more than gs?

@@homage3 that'd be great! i play vindi with shortbow in spvp
@@homage3 dual swords are more fun to play imo, i like that they´re still a thing
how do you deal with theives, they have more s heals and damage than vindi does

- use terrain and jump onto places where they cant teleport onto you

What is the “this” that you were referring to when you said “this is the very last thing you want to see at the start of your game?”
@@nathanzorndorf8214 The enemy necro and Rev are the 1st and 2nd highest ranked players on NA.

Doesn't vindi counter necros? Coz everytimr i try to 1v1 a vindi i get smashed by them 🙂 i play condi reaper
