If they're happy to have quite the bad repuation with their fake dog shit gameplay, good for them lol
Id be interested in watching Flats coach a bronze vs Emongg coaching a bronze Another idea: get 6 bronzes that complain their teammates are the problem, make them queue together in comp
First off, glad you're OK Flats. But Griefhardt is my favorite Rein skin, I peaked 3800 when I was a Rein main with it years ago, and it's a bit weird hearing fashion advice from a man who dresses like a traffic cone.
I'm new to your channel/streams and this type of content is singlehandedly reviving the spirit of Overwatch imo. Tough love/hilarious commentary on Bronze matches is both refreshing AND useful! I only play Support in comp because I don't feel confident as a main Tank... I'm gonna change that up after watching a few more of this series haha.
Just be ready to be the target of a lot of toxic, more so if you are a woman and need to lead coms. More or less lead coms, people expect it i have see .
@@SoulAtParadise I've been learning Ana and Baptiste in OW2, haven't explored tank much outside of QP. I also went with a gender neutral name and haven't experienced any sexism, even on the rare occasion I hop on comms. I hope you and your friend are having fun and that she's able to take the shitty comments and mentally delete them haha.
9:45 Stuff like this is why I think OW's hitboxes are an absolute joke No wonder I've been pinned even though I saw it coming and ran out of the way so many times
@cj No, you can clearly see this rein intentionally avoid walls on some of his pins. He even steers into a wall when he fails to get someone with his pin. 100% throwing.
I’m a gold tank, bronze dps/support. I was lowkey proud of myself for climbing to gold on tank, but watching games like these make me realize it really isn’t hard as long as you aren’t a complete idiot.
Please keep making these, they help me out with stress from school and life. It’s a good way to escape for twenty minutes. If anything, I reckon you should spectate two games instead of one. -thanks flats
Yup, 469 hours in competitive, and at that level? He was definitely higher in previous seasons but threw games to get a low sr so he could get Flats' attention.
i'm friends with the person in the video. they watch geezyclaps and they genuinely think charging someone off the map is always viable (hence why they are in bronze). i tried telling them numerous times but they won't listen.
I really miss Reinhardt's like this! I'm sure he's yelling at his team, too, about them not helping him when they're having to fight 5v6 most of the time because of him. I'll always remember the Rein on Hanamura when I was in silver who had nearly a 800 hours of Rein and blamed our team for losing when he somehow kept managing to charge off the map. Also, I think Flats make a good point that some people play Rein when they actually find his kit boring. I think that explains people who charge incessantly: they're bored, so they charge. They really ought to just play a different tank.
Plot twist! It’s the same skin but looked at through a special lens. He had the fire head on the whole time, thats why he had to constantly dunk himself in the water.
At this point I believe he's lowkey trolling for semi-content because he called the best hog skin the worst too, and that's way more objective than the rein ones. Either that or he has a really poor taste, which is ok I guess. A lot of people have dumb reasons to like skins, some go only with the appearance while the more complicated ones require design and sense behind it
Just friendly advice, if this series starts to be about people hard throwing or pretending to be toxic to get attention, it will lose a lot of it's charm. It's my personal opinion but at that point I'd rather see silver players trying than bronze players throwing for attention.
At 4:21 you can literally see how he is intentionally going for the edge of the map. He aims his charge as close as he can to the water, but cant reach it.
currently at college having a break down but watching this video anyways bc human noises make me feel more comfortable so thanks for a bro and comforting me even tho this is several months old i just cant stop the tears. they just keep coming, man and idk how to stop them but im still here watching youtube okay bye hop everyone has a good day/night
As soon as I see these videos it's always an instaclick partly for the hilarious content and partly for the wholesome start to every video, big love my man
Btw in the dropbear clip that you watched on stream, pretty sure the enemy hog on ilios lighthouse was more drunk when he walked straight into a mei blizzard
Flats I love these bronze vods and the reason they have popped off so hard is because your the only one that is doing them!! Best streamer, Rein king much love and congrats on the 100k! Road to 200k!🙏
Omgoodness, why was I so personally crushed when you made fun of the Greifhardt skin (;_;) I feel like a magical Tolkien Ent every time I wear it xD It's my go-to. But I love your insight Flats! Keep up the good work and I hope the home situation works out soon!!
To be fair, the more hp he loses to environmental damage, the less hp he loses from feeding into the enemy ults. So if they trade tank for tank in bronze by suiciding, they are giving their team a net positive in the end. By killing themselves. Of course, they'll never leave bronze if that is what they decide to keep doing instead of actually making meaningful contributions.
This is amazing. Also I see chat praising the Hanzo but I'm pretty sure the Hanzo is a smurf based on his level and getting 2 kills in quick succession before being pinned and making that maneuver to survive and then kill the Rein AND take the healthpack (something low elo players tend to forget exists). But yeah gotta wonder if this was purely a troll.
I've never seen a Rein actively try to pin off the map so many times in one game 😂😂😂 Fitting that his last play was charging off the map with no pin 🤣🤣
Speedy just watched Honor and Glory and said, "I'll be that Reinhardt" and so from that day onward, he decided to charge to his death every opportunity he has and just shields. But at least the Young Reinhardt's shield has an actual purpose.
step one: hard throw in bronze step two: say you couldnt of done more and other things that just make no sense step three: send it to flats step four: get in a video ez
This is literally what quick play is going to look like in OW2 because of the battle pass challenges. His challenge was to pin 10 people off the map as Reinhardt
i know I'm hella late but I suggest we see another game speedy sent in on Nepal on Aug 21st for roasting BRONZE because just the first round on nepal village he still kept trying to pin people off the map and he was a buffet of feeding. It was a hoot hopefully flats gets to see this game befor its gone
Can we also give some props to the soldier coming Warrior99's aide? Soon as he kills the Rein, you see him peek around see Warrior is good and is like "good shit" then leaves to do bronze soldier shit
@flats In settings there's a QoL keybind to scrub forward/backward 5/10/15/20 seconds, would make replaying stupid moments a ton easier. I have mine bound to "[" to go back and "]" to go forward. Just FYI You can also bind to slow down/speed up and switch player if you want to, but you don't use those too often

the fact that rein has played almost 500 hours of comp and nothing else is the scariest part
