I always knew right hand advantage was something to be aware, but I did not realize just how much top players covet it. I also learned that you never really roll in fights unless its to duck behind cover. If you do roll in a fight, it should be to the right side to utilize the other right side advantage. Great strategic breakdown overall. Thanks for the vids.
ArCtiC, thanks for sharing the knowledge! Your are one of the few Gears commentator that explain things in such a easy to understand way, keep up the good work!
@shakurlover2 I'm not sure if you mean a settin g that toggles it on and off for a button or just a switch. Playing all Left Hand wouldn't make a difference it would be essentially the same as it is now. Being about to swap on the fly is a much better approach so a button would serve a better purpose.
@IvanRG58 I believe it's still an exclusive character. Previously the only way to unlock it was via Pre-Order. I'm not sure when Epic will release the character.
Will you be making a video to show how to go against people who use right hand advantage, as you showed in the slow-motion clip, what if you were the enemy? What would the best thing to do in that situation?
arCTiC I just have to ask since I've been away from the game for a while, is MLG planning to do anything for this game? You know Pro Circuit wise? I'd really like to see you and your team go play.
@stuartfiasco yeah I actually asked about a cover swap button awhile ago and basically there aren't enough buttons on the controller is what I was told. Sounds like they looked into it for GoW3 and determined it wouldn't matter because it's been like this since the game's inception.
Hey perhaps we could get an avoiding weapon fire tutorial? Stuff from the basics like taking cover or using right hand advantage to dodging bullets with slides and ink grenades. Idk just a suggestion for the next video. :)
@arCtiCvBi hey i have a good question do you ever look at your shotgun to see if its in the right position or a certain body part? or do you just look at the enemy player the whole time? cause it seems your shotty is always in the right place. obviously your a pro lol but i would like to no what exactly your looking at for a reference point
@arCtiCvBi I hear you. I think every gears vid I watch half the people are asking for a wallbouncing tutorial. I think a progression of the tips is a good idea...look forward to the follow up vids. :)
@blackheartsk8 I've made a video on Alternate controls, but there's no tip to get better at the scheme. The best advice is to just continue to use it until it becomes second nature.
I know this is off topic but... Do you play on an HDTV? I got one a couple months back and I feel like it's messing up my game. At first I was playing like shit because I didn't realize HDTVs have high input lag if you don't tinker with the settings. Even after getting the lag as low as possibly I still feel like I'm off. For example; I had a 2.3 K/D and 1.5 W/L, now it's like 1.9 K/D and 1.0 W/L.
Hey arctic can you make a guide on alternate controls? I've been trying to use it since I love your vids and your wall bouncing but I just can't get it please try to make one thanks!
@arCtiCvBi I can't really remember any game which does it.. But I believe some have. The ability to go to the options menu and change "right side" to left side, i don't see a problem with this if there's no room/space for a togg-able button whilst playing ;)
Hey artic can you tell me how to get the Savage Granadier Elite cause i really want one his like the coolest locust or do you know if hes coming out in a new dlc like the savage kantus
@lxlZiLTOiDlxl I feel like too many players, not you specifically, are looking for Wallbouncing/Shotgun/Sniper etc tips/tricks right off of the bat. I'm more interested in expanding on basic fundamentals then jumping into more advanced tactics. I think if you go too far ahead, too fast you'll lose people in the process. I would rather someone say, "Hey I recognize X,Y,Z from his previous tips video," when everything is strung together. Short answer to your question...yes.
HEY ARCTIC!I NEED SERIOUS HELP OR ADVICE!! In my region,all the players in gears of war 3(95% of them) only think of POP SHOTTING when it comes to killing someone(typically when facing a situation of 1 vs 1),its like whoever who pop shot faster and more accurate wins(ridiculous).i'm watching alot of your videos,practicing hard on STRAFING you told us(left,right movement),but whenever i face them,it seems as though i can't out strafe them.PLEASE help me onto how to deal with these POP SHOTTERS!!
gears doesn't work i hit people 5-6 times an i either get 1 or 2 hited every time any distance am i nerfed or somin or am i just going up against cheaters all the time?
yeah but in a 1v1 shotty situation everyone always expects you to go to the right side for right side advantage so guess what, go the opposite way and they never expect it
@MrBMB316 Thanks I plan on doing more of the Tips and Tactics videos in this format style, so I'm glad you enjoyed it!
You're combining great tips and tactics with an opening scene worthy of your 'Go HAM series'. Amazing! Thanks. RHA really makes the difference.
@KingNefiiria Next video will be discussing Active Reloads but I'll have videos that go over similar topics in the future

+Underview no problem glad you enjoy :)

Good video, arctic. Best gears vids out there. Appreciate the tips but is there anything more advanced under your sleeve?
Keep em coming. Learning how to do quick grenades has made my amount of grenade kills skyrocket for sure.
Thanks for the video... I never new about the left hand swap and i used it today and won 9 times out of 10 because of it. Liked and subscribed.
I'm loving all of things you do for the Gears community. Hope you get your 1,000 likes.
A very simple concept that can improve people's gameplay a TON. Good video,
Nice vid, I've been playing since Gears 1 and NEVER knew about left-hand swap nice to know!

@sprycrab thanks glad you enjoyed!
nice vid arctic! Btw. where is that lancer skin from?
@Lucifar1990 Thanks, I believe that is team plasma from one of the DLCs
@IvanRG58 I believe it's still an exclusive character. Previously the only way to unlock it was via Pre-Order. I'm not sure when Epic will release the character.
@dmaxpr thanks man, really appreciate the feedback!

Thanks, I had no idea about that right hand advantage. Definitely applying this to my game :D
@Lucifar1990 It's chrome lancer you get from the "Don't hate the player" achievement in gears of war 1.
Arctic, do you have you middle fingers on triggers and index on bumpers when youre playing?

@KOPFG3LD no problem thanks for watching!
@DRXPrOtege yeah it has some very good uses in certain situations
@arCtiCvBi I hear you. I think every gears vid I watch half the people are asking for a wallbouncing tutorial. I think a progression of the tips is a good idea...look forward to the follow up vids. :)
best tactic videos iv ever seen thanks man
@blackheartsk8 I've made a video on Alternate controls, but there's no tip to get better at the scheme. The best advice is to just continue to use it until it becomes second nature.
@soccerkid143 uh what portion of the vid?
@bkthaking thanks, plenty more on the way!

love the tips and tactics bro
are you using left trigger when shooting with the right hand advantage with the gnasher or just shooting no LT?
@LordMahemium no problem!
Hey arctic can you make a guide on alternate controls? I've been trying to use it since I love your vids and your wall bouncing but I just can't get it please try to make one thanks!
@shakurlover2 Ghost Recon has a button for it other than that I'm not sure either
nice straight forward video man
@DefinitionzJ thank you good sir
thanks glad you found it useful and enjoyed it! :)
Plz do some strafing&wallbouncing tips video, those are what I'm good at but I want to be better so I could always win my duels
The opening clip was crazy.
@Peligrazo I use alternate control scheme
@TheExplosiveTiger I don't have lag and I play on an HDTV, do you use an HDMI cable by any chance?
@arCtiCvBi I can't really remember any game which does it.. But I believe some have. The ability to go to the options menu and change "right side" to left side, i don't see a problem with this if there's no room/space for a togg-able button whilst playing ;)
@twrs828 concept is the same, I'm simply generalizing.
@FormalSocks it's pretty awesome
strafing and king tips next!
@Buhz93 lol yeah I noticed that damn auto correct
Maybe it should be possible to change view in the menu / options instead of a button only made for that?
@Zoxxic sorry next will be active reloading
This video was really helpful!
always love the videos man.
nice vid, my like granted for your goal of 1000 :)
The new Razer controller, any news when is it being released?
What's the controller brand ? Could be could for my mortal kombat 9 .
Great video
@Thatonethatyouknew congrats!
@MortalGears gnasher/wallbouncing will come in time, as I explained in a separate comment, I'm more focused on basic fundamentals at the present time
Hey artic can you tell me how to get the Savage Granadier Elite cause i really want one his like the coolest locust or do you know if hes coming out in a new dlc like the savage kantus
LoL i know a lot of these tricks already, but i still watch just because I

@josegtx13 glad it helped out!
Also good to note that reloading your gun will also pull you out of the lefty flip.
wtf do you press Y to grab ammo / a new weapon?? .O what do you use X for? :O
@ericsayres I think anyone should tell newer players this, definitely doesn't take a pro. Just about helping out new players in the community.
@arCtiCvBi Yeah Red Dead Redemption as well, on the list for changing aim sight on the "go" :)
@PLKicen eventually
Left hand corner swap sounds hilarious it called the lefty flip of lefty glitch
@TrueMagway yeah most of the time
@AngelofDeath9071 thanks!

@arCtiCvBi aah excuse me I should have been more precise... I mean the lancer skin where you use griffin and show the lefty flip.
