Come on, you play a 19 hunter, which is about as OP as it gets, but you and I know that 24 mage isnt underpowered, just like 19s, and it gets so much better when u put a 24 in front of mage. Dont act like people need tips to hit arcane barrage every 3 seconds and throw in some focus sheeps/counters.

I have 5 19s only ONE is a hunter and 2 24s: Mage and priest. It's not my fault blizzard made hunters OP. I have been playing 24s from the start and it's fare to say every class can down a mage. Even f2p hunters with 900 health have no problem killing me. I'm trying to help people understand the mage more and the viability it carries . I don't know why your judging me on one twink I play in a completely different bracket.

I'm sorry, I can't say anything positive about gameplay in this video.

It really was the epitome of crutchin' on levels.



However....

I don't want to be a complete Negative Nancy so I'll conclude with... Good job throwing together a video.

Pardon, maybe I'm missing something here but.... I don't think mages are bad at all in this bracket (*cough*especiallyattwofour*cough*). Lots of cc and that silence is great for killing heals/rendering them ineffective.

I mean it's not like balance, or locks. Those really are underpowered.

Video: wasn't too bad, clips were weird, intro was too long, and I really would go for subtitle tips instead of giving each it's own screen, especially for imparting wisdom such as "blink is good for getting away from and catching up to stuff." :) Yay for flag caps/returns and some non-midfarming action.
 
Wasn't expecting these comments, from what i've played i've barely seen another mage. I have been taken down by all classes including balance druids and locks. Fire and frost are both a waste of time and are by far, more underpowered than locks and druids . Wanted to get some advice out there about arcane mages. Yes ''blinking to get away'' may sound stupid to you, but the fact of the matter is that people don't catch on to the simplest things. Well I tried, I don't know where your guys expectations lay=(

Ok, I take it all back.

I watched you kill Duo. I guess he couldn't keyboard/click his way outta that.

Also you got Deathstar. He didn't have his rogue buddy :(

Good video.

I wasn't attacking you for playing a hunter, but we both know 24 mages arent underpowered. I played a backpeddling one who 3 shot me with improved counter and all he had to do was have gear, hit a couple buttons and profit. Btw, Im BiS pre LFH. I have around 1100.
 
Scenario: someone releases a video of 24 twink.

Reaction: You're bad...you crutch on levels. Obviously this bracket is only for F2P's and you 24's are terribads, crutchers and just ruining it for us gimped level 20's who knew what we were signing up for when we came into this bracket.
 
Tip: Get Zerking
PvP Action: A Higher level character killing trial accounts
Trick: Make a 24

trials should go cry in their own forum, this is our bracket, YOU are the annoying presence.

for the video: any footage of someone that jumps/ strafes, especially if they can't do it in a strait line, so much that it's hindering your gameplay in a big way bugs me. there was lots of excellent opportunities for CC and damage being ignored while you were spinning around and strafing.

some unnecessary blinks and trinkets.

there's different things you could be doing with your priorities on casts to do more burst.

using lifeblood to use instant casts

just some little stuff, on a scale i'd rate it 7/10 not bad but it could defiantly be better.

a mage could make really good use of engineering in this bracket especially with "the big one" and it would be fun to watch if used right.
 
I guess when 20s make valid points we're qqing. 24 mages aren't underpowered, thats absurd to say so. But carry on that's really all I was trying to say.
 
I am not a mage but play one on...jk

Mages are neither OP or UP in of themselves. Skill or the lack of it determines how they are perceived. I have seen some of the best and how they move and time their attacks/abilities is everything. Played correctly as part of a team they can seriously stress out an opponent. Fun to see played but not against...

Yea I agree. I did this right off the bat, and didn't practise before hand. This really is just rusty gameplay. I don't know why I felt to the need to make this. I just wanted to have more people rolling mages I guess =0. But you have to agree duo made the vid lol. Thanks brother=)
 
Mages crit for 1k, slow , sheep. Blink fc. When we used to Premade we always bring a Mage to sacrifice himself while fc survived to get away . Mages are not under powered but a skillful Mage can be overpowered and a pest / game changing .
 
Spot on Honey Badger , not sure about US but EU has couple nasty 24 mages and barrel of F2P ones. Mages are far from the weakest class in the bracket,
