Started watching episode 5 and stopped watching after the first fight. You start the fight shooting hail at a corax and then an arty thrasher comes in and doesn't move. Instead of approaching him at an angle you retardedly decide to approach with 0 transversal and die. That's not a "you win some you lose some" that's a "you're ******* awful."


haha jesus, what a ****.

The fit was experimental. I ended up tossing it because it's not really viable for more intense PVP against skilled players.




Whilst it is nice to see someone posting videos without the usual dub step soundtrack over the top of an active diemos with links/pills soloing terrible cruiser pilots I have the following points for you.


  • I have to agree with others that been zoomed in that close ALL the time is a little vomit inducing.


  • All of the fights you show where against some terrible pilots. It was like watching a very "stylish" video of mission running.


  • The one semi-decent fight you had against a Corax and a Thrasher (the one where you died) showed some poor tactical decisions by yourself. Never approach a thrasher like that. At least attempt to spiral in, clicking approach and then orbit is not elite PvP.If you insist on using an AB on a brawling ship then use your small sig radius to your advantage. You may well have died anyhow but I guess you'll never know.


  • Prepare yourself for more criticism in the future as I know it feels like your being an ultimate badass, roaming low sec and killing people, but basically you are running on to the special bus and cracking as many skulls as you can with a baseball bat before the police arrive.....sometimes with friends.


Anyway, dont take it personally. You post stuff on the internet and people will comment. Sometimes it will be nice and sometimes not so much. As long as your having fun keep doing it. I wont be watching anymore though.

And I welcome the criticism. I learn from it. However, so far, most of it has been delivered based on assumption rather than actually knowing exactly what happened or being in my head at the time, or even without at least asking me what I was thinking, or what I have learned. A lot of it makes the assumption that I think I'm awesome, or elite. And a lot of it then proceeds to insult me rather than actually construct upon what I've learned so far.

I am aware that I cannot stop that kind of commentary. I can, however, choose to ignore it.

I am also seeing a lot of people who are happy to criticise, for example, how I lost a Jaguar, but few for giving kudos for instead of just putting up all my wins, including a loss here and there as well. And virtually no one comments on when I actually fly well.

And I may end up having to repeat this over and over, but the audience I post these videos for enjoy the close ups and angles that I fraps them in. If you don't enjoy them, then they're not for you anyway.

Are you using an off grid booster in these fights? I didn't notice anything specifying one way or the other.

Not when I'm alone, no. When I'm with others, such as when taking down the Tengu in the 3rd video, they may put a booster up, but we might not necessarily be in a fleet together, either.

The last fight in the 5th video, the guy I duelled specifically requested we fleet up together, so that we would know that no one was benefitting from boosts - just me vs him, ship vs ship. I felt it was actually a perfectly reasonable request, and agreed to it, and we fought in a fleet of just the two of us in squad member positions.
