With todays patch the ambusher receveived a new weapon (katars), a new perk which enables you to ALWAYS kill enemies in meele instead of knocking them down sometimes and a new special ability! The quiver was replaced with bandage kits, which makes you way more valuable for your team (and makes it much easier to top score now)! :)
TIp to Always 1 shot backstab, ( to add onto Tip # 3): The Sprint attack, is actually a keybind as well as the normal Stab. Meaning you can: go to Settings > Keybindings > Rebind " Sprint Attack - 'Q' " to anything else . Now You can reliably press Q while sprinting and always do the 1 shot stab without stopping.
Another tip: scavenge a ranged weapon to make more use of the resupply skill. I try to go for a crossbow or javalin ideally, the idea isn't to become a ranged character, but as an ambusher you frequently find yourself at really good sightlines that an ordinary archer would be too vulnerable to hold. It also lets you draw out lone enemies too, since people love nothing more than to rush toward someone with a ranged weapon.
Thanks for that. Let me return the favour by giving you a tip as well: Turn the ingame volume way lower as it was very hard to understand your words (on smartphone at least), which took a bit motivation to proceed with the video.
my favorite class, got 50+ kills two times already with this class, i suggest to use hatchet, it does very good damage and allows for fast/heavy mixups. Another one is don’t be ashamed running back, if you spotted multiple enemy incoming, just turn your head and run, wait till you can 1v1 and that’s when you excel. Pay attention to world hazards, you are designed to use them.
Ambusher is actually really good for Coxwell because of how many things you can knock onto the ground with your throwing knives just throwing your knives at those objects alone can get you 10+ kills a game
Love using Ambusher to duel, keeping the enemy on their toes with throwing knives and having a reliable shortsword makes ambusher a very aggressive duelist
I tried once but after a few kills nobody wanted to duel me until I changed my class 🤣 I mean fair enough but still, it's not as bad as fighting a skirmisher 😬😂
I would add in, utilise vertical parts of the map. This is a good idea for anyone, but especially for ambusher where you want those big one-hits. Some maps/parts of maps have no vertical options at all, but some (like Askandir, personal fav for ambusher next to darkforest) have fantastic vertical gameplay. Get an enemy in your sights, drop down like Ezio, and murder em'. You can even start the long Q animation mid-air for extra "what the fuck just killed me" points
Man, i feel like this is a very niche class that requires a lot of variables to play properly, like having teammates who can hold their own long enough for you to stab the enemy and for the enemy to not be smart enough to watch their back. Honestly, i found myself doing the exact same role as Ambusher just using devastator, engineer, etc. except this time I have more damage and the enemy has a harder time blocking me.
Yes that's definitely true and that's also the reason why the ambusher is so hard to play, at least If you want to perform really well. Thanks a lot for watching and for your comment!
how big is your vision that you can look at the HP of the opponent and target them at the same time? I can't. :( It's like I can only see one part of the screen at any given time.
The ambusher class needs a major rework. For starters, it should be the fastest class in game with near 0 sprint windup, you just hit the button and insta sprint basically. Also it obviously needs some element of stealth gameplay, like a smoke bomb or a throwable blinding agent to enable a fast getaway. Throwing Knives should also deal massive damage from behind to incentivize picking off enemies from the shadows and then running when discovered, like a, you know, ambusher. They should be pesky, elusive, somewhat weak in a 1v1, and hard to catch.
That might inspire an ambusher gank meta, that's the only thing I can see wrong with it really. Using everything you suggested, you could rush enemies and have everyone throw down the smoke and just move in rotation stabbing until enough people get the back stab crit, then just sprint off to heal
Very nice guides. There is 1 issue I face with sound. Battle sounds are sometimes as loud, if not loader as your voice so watching when making breakfast is almost impossible. I’m watching on IPad Air 2 so this should be balanced
Thank you! Yeah the ambusher Guide was one of my first videos and the ingame sound was definitely too loud. But by now i've figured it out. My newer videos have way better sound settings 👍

you will do a katar guide ? pls pls pls i hope you wil.
@@DeifMaxPower Yes I'm working on it :)

Problem is that now the ambusher lost the quiver for the med kit.

Thanks for watching and for your Tip! I have also noticed that the ingame sound was a bit loud and i have adjusted it in my newest Video 👍
@@xylar9630 very welcome. Hope to see u soon on the battlefield! :)

That's a really good point! The feeling when killing multiple enemies with a single "trap" like a chandelier is just priceless

Yeah duelling with the ambusher is a lot of fun! Although people get annoyed by you really fast haha :D

Block and then press the input.
This works for if you want to kick and not tackle for example. Block and then kick, or block and then special.

Xylar: "try to avoid 1vX"
Also Xylar: *immediately shows a clip of him throwing himself into a 1vX situation*
I did this on purpose to show how hard it is 😉
@@xylar9630 yeah I get that, but oh the irony 🤣
The amount of teammates I've backstabbed because they move in front of me just as I am about to hit.
3:10 lmao brutal

@@xylar9630 thanks mate, it was a great guide.
I use my secondary weapon, instead of dagger, for Face to Face combat, if i have to do it ofc, good video bro
I feel like ambusher fit's the same kind of role as Spy from tf2
But without any of the tools that lets spy do his job.
What, you're telling me I can play medieval TF2 this whole time!!!!

great video thanks
I love ambusher, but im a ps5 player and the throw button is so damn inconvenient, and for some reason they locked button mapping...

You should do this for every class
That's a good idea! I will definitely do this for a couple more classes soon 👍
Can you tell me why sometimes when you block it shows purple instead of yellow. I've gotten it before but is it just cause of timing
He successfully countered. That's why its blue.
Спасибо за советы, они и вправду рабочие.
I love ravioli but hate revioli
Pick up shield and have it on your back
