Frost Mage PvP Video – Ctl1
Typically I’m not interested in many PvP videos, especially frost mage pvp videos. These days good videos are a few and far between, so I rarely bother. However, a friend of mine on Smolderthorn just released his first video, so I had to at least check it out.

This video features a complication of world PvP, battlegrounds, and arena. The man at the helm is Ctl, an experienced arena mage and overall solid player. Generally speaking this video is well done. The opening scenes of World PvP and battlegrounds are quite refreshing from the accepted norm of 15-20 minutes of arena matches. It certainly showed his ability to handle multiple players at the same time and would be a great watch for aspiring frost mages still trying to master or improve upon their own control and kite game.
The only down side for me is the excessive graphical editing and close up shots on iceblock, unit frames, etc. This really is more of a personal preference, but this really gets on my nerves. Honestly, I have eyes… I can see you just blocked the deathcoil, good job! That is what you ARE SUPPOSED TO DO. I don’t need the Neilyo-esque close ups of every damn skill and ability to show me how “pro” you are.
Beyond that, it’s a great video. Solid editing throughout, exciting fights, a nice mix of arena, world pvp and battelgrounds. This is a great watch both for entertainment and tutorial vlue. 5 stars.

I don’t think you get, he evaded the CC like a champ it must be known! Haha, I don’t mind when people point this out, but I do agree the zoom-in effect isn’t necessary. What I think he should do is do an instant replay like thing. Rewind the iceblocked death coil to show emphasis, but don’t hit the viewer over the head with it.
if the viewer doesn’t realize it’s happening, is pointing it out a second time really going to matter though?
Honestly, what sort of reaction am I supposed to have…”OH HOLY SHIT HE JUST DID THE ICE THING! WOW!”…/no
