It's going good I don't have much time to play but I've made it to almost bronze 1 after starting in bronze 3. It goes very well if I get good healers, and people that low of rank don't usually insta lock support so I've been playing more cloak and dagger, when I want to be playing Groot or peni
Putting aside the game, I think it’s super cool how you interact and reply to all the comments and you’re not some ego dude!! I really respect that and I’ve been trying to find good content of groot mains and I finally found the one!!❤
I started playing groot at the start of season 1 and your videos have been a great help at learning what to look out for or how/when to use my walls. I’m gonna attempt to play ranked… eventually.
Got to Diamond in season 0 maining Thor, but knew I should pick up one of the stronger tanks if I wanted to go further than that. Decided to dedicate some time to Groot and he’s been a blast. Your videos have helped a good bit in learning, and it’s nice to have some regular Groot content since there’s not a lot out there. Keep it up!
Hey happy to hear your having fun with groot! ive been having a blast with him aswell honestly. The videos will keep on coming! thanks for supporting them :)
5 : 06 yes, it was woman invish shield that made you that slow : you're getting slow each time you're crossing it, or the borders of her ult. But most people don't know about the shield slow because you rarely cross it
These videos help my confidence in playing groot tbh seeing how you use the ironwall offensively really helps cause I normally thought it's better to only have it for the overhealth haha
Yeah that's something a lot of groot players have been saying recently! So don't worry you aren't alone, the overhealth is nice but the value you get from it being on the field is far nicer.
a few days ago i decided to try every single character and from ALL the characters groot was just an obvious winner, i genuinly don't understand how people think his bad
I don't think people think he's bad personally. i think some of the other tanks are just far to overtuned at the moment but same here. I think he's one of the most fun tanks by far.
that was actually an amazing play when you walled the healers from venom. Not only were you able to pick him off. You were able to focus on them after. Sheeesh 🔥
Also when playing groot instead of breaking the rockets ult, Just place a wall inside the middle of it and none of the beams will come out of it. Almost as your putting it into Penni nest to break it
Love the steady Groot content. Could you also include the post-game scoreboard at the end of the video? I'm curious to see how your damage and blocking compares to your team at your rank
Yeah ill do that from know now if i remember! This game i had 22k damage with 44k damage blocked. my dps and i all had 35-40 kills with bucky having mvp.
invisible women is a legit groot counter lmao her normal bubble is good enough to keep the team alive if you ult and her ult is for sure strong enough to straight make ur ult useless
Yeah shes really strong in general honestly, its annoying she pretty good against groot, but id rather play against her than a luna or CnD honestly lol
@nesmonTV I'd play him more but I find it hard to get as much value in a game compared to when I play other Vanguards. Just a skill issue I believe lol.
you said at 6:44 that you should have destroyd wall manually for shorter cooldown, but the cooldown is actually based of the walls hp, if you destroy it manually at full hp cooldown is 4 seconds but as the hp gets lower (eg at like 30hp) its basically max cooldown so if you did take it back right before it died it wouldnt have made a diffrence on its cooldown, also love your content keep it up :)
Yeah it does indeed, i recently learned if you don't damage the spawner before breaking it with wall, it will be an instant cooldown so its better to damage at least a little first
Love the videos! What’s your best advice for dealing with Dr Strange? He just blocks my attacks so I’ve been trying to wall him off and deal damage with my melee but I’m struggling since I have to get really close to hit him
Oh thats a good question, Strange can be pretty rough in general in the match up, i like to try force his flight ability early on so i trap him next engage and make some pressure. Other than that i feel likes its a fight for who can control the space the most. So try play close to corners and play aggressive when he pushes you. Do keep in mind though Strange is the best tnak in game so he is pretty hard to play against in a 1v1!
I wanna learn all the Vanguards but Groot takes a while to click for me. QM is a nightmare to try to practice him and Im not confident enough vs the ex-GMs in Gold 1+. Solo queue tanking is hard sometimes.
hey bro thanks for enjoying the videos it means alot! Im pretty tired at the moment so my heads a bit foggy but a unique tip i don't see people using a lot is having flanking high ground with your ult, usually if you time it correctly it can lead to some huge 4-6 man ults and its very satisfying. I hope this helps
groot red wall actually give you extra hp to you up to 1100 (and ur ally as well) if u placed it in safe space and hit enemy while you / your teammate near the wall, if you place it in front of enemy it lost its value but working only as a wall
That is incorrect, your teammates dont gain extra HP, only groot and even then you lose A LOT more value if you hide the wall for extra hp compared to using it to cut off line of sight from healers for easy kills
@@nesmonTV noooo but "How To Play Groot & Advance Groot Tutorial That Get Me to Diamond / GM in 1 Week This is How You Should Play Groot in High Elo" told me so 😣
Whenever you go up with the two small groot walls, you shouldn’t have to look up but instead use ur camera to look down onto the one wall and it places two under you. I think it’s faster then, instead of taking the time to look up
Its great honestly, just make sure you damage it before because if you just wall it with it being damage the peni gets the spider nest back instantly. :)
100% better for grouping them up for moonknight, namor, bucky, iron man etc etc because you can actually kill through alot of the support ults that way. Its just im soloQ alot of the time so i don't have someone to combo with
i usually like to ask for an invis woman or a rocket raccoon, rockets super jump is a get out of jail free card, and invis woman completely ocutners him with all of her slows, pulls/pushes when im not able to have either on my team ill play very passive and try bait his passive out before making any plays. Congrats on the Gm2 man! :)
Yeah its the same for alot of groot players so you arent alone! but my advice would be to ask for a invis woman, so she can push/pull him off of you at ease. She completely counters him as a hero right now and the rocket raccoon super jump from his revive does a great job at getting away from him. If your teammates arent wanting to swap, the only advice i can give that's worked for me, is play pretty patient and close to your team and try bait out his passive as that puts him out the game for a while
How is ranked this season for everyone? good or bad?
It's going good I don't have much time to play but I've made it to almost bronze 1 after starting in bronze 3. It goes very well if I get good healers, and people that low of rank don't usually insta lock support so I've been playing more cloak and dagger, when I want to be playing Groot or peni
@ ah im happy to hear its going good but i understand on the killing part, that can be pretty annoying :/
My friend installed Rivals just yesterday, and he has already declared himself a Groot main 😂 Love your content!
Thats so cool, Groot mains on top! Im happy youre loving the content
Putting aside the game, I think it’s super cool how you interact and reply to all the comments and you’re not some ego dude!! I really respect that and I’ve been trying to find good content of groot mains and I finally found the one!!❤
Ay of course man, i think everyone deserves a reply and ill try to make that happen, happy you enjoyed the content man :)
i love playing against penny as groot since they're always like wtf when you instantly take out their nest by putting a wall under it lmao
Yesss its so funny watching them looked surprised at the dead spawner LOL
Wait you can do that 🤦🏽♂️
I started playing groot at the start of season 1 and your videos have been a great help at learning what to look out for or how/when to use my walls. I’m gonna attempt to play ranked… eventually.
Hey thats really cool man, im happy to hear the videos have help you see success in learning Groot. Good luck with ranked when you try it! :)
Samr I was a peni main in season 0, but I decided to become a Groot main in season 1
@ ay those are 2 pretty fun tanks, peni players are cool from my experience (2 of my friends main her)
Got to Diamond in season 0 maining Thor, but knew I should pick up one of the stronger tanks if I wanted to go further than that. Decided to dedicate some time to Groot and he’s been a blast.

As a silver 3 Groot main, i appreciate these videos! Thank you

@@nesmonTV I think groot is 3rd strongest tank personally, just way harder to play then the top 2.
@@richardmenz3257 True, i agree honestly
i really enjoy these vids man, keep up the good work
im happy you enjoy them, more to come!
This was so entertaining to watch, great stuff
happy to hear you enjoyed it :)
I looooove the li'ls texts where you explain what you're doing live : big fan from France here :)
I'll make sure to keep the texts then! I want to visit France again, haven't been since i was younger :)
that was actually an amazing play when you walled the healers from venom. Not only were you able to pick him off. You were able to focus on them after. Sheeesh 🔥
Thank you man, I've been trying to improve with Groot a lot recently. Happy to see its noticeable 😁
i always wondered why sometimes my groot ult is stuck mid air near me not hitting anyone, now i know lol, love your videos man
Thanks for enjoying the videos bro! :)
Also when playing groot instead of breaking the rockets ult, Just place a wall inside the middle of it and none of the beams will come out of it. Almost as your putting it into Penni nest to break it
Thanks i knew you could do the other deployable, never tried with rocket ult though
Using the iron wall is better bc of how big it is but the small walls can work too
Love the steady Groot content.
Could you also include the post-game scoreboard at the end of the video? I'm curious to see how your damage and blocking compares to your team at your rank
Yeah ill do that from know now if i remember! This game i had 22k damage with 44k damage blocked. my dps and i all had 35-40 kills with bucky having mvp.
At 2:15 ish when your loons bugged I think it hits venom to mess up placement. Wish they made the start point a little more clear. Great video!
See i thought the same thing but it didn't keep the venom stuck in place unless he has some sort of a passive i don't know about.
You need to make the ultimate groot guide that all groots mains would need man !
im hoping to make one very soon! Just unsure how i want to structure it yet
@@nesmonTVyes please do!!
invisible women is a legit groot counter lmao her normal bubble is good enough to keep the team alive if you ult and her ult is for sure strong enough to straight make ur ult useless
Yeah shes really strong in general honestly, its annoying she pretty good against groot, but id rather play against her than a luna or CnD honestly lol
Love the captions put into the gameplay so we know what is going on in your decision-making
Perfect, ill keep them coming :)
Groot is a definite work horse of a class. Nothing flashy, crazy, or mechanically complex, just a solid class with consistent output!
Exactly! thats what i love about him honestly
@nesmonTV I'd play him more but I find it hard to get as much value in a game compared to when I play other Vanguards. Just a skill issue I believe lol.
That wall ride play to gain height was insane def gonna be using that thanks
Glad you found something useful! :)
you said at 6:44 that you should have destroyd wall manually for shorter cooldown, but the cooldown is actually based of the walls hp, if you destroy it manually at full hp cooldown is 4 seconds but as the hp gets lower (eg at like 30hp) its basically max cooldown so if you did take it back right before it died it wouldnt have made a diffrence on its cooldown, also love your content keep it up :)
that's true isn't it still roughly shorter though? And im happy you've been enjoying the content :)
@@nesmonTV it might be shorter by half a second or so but i think thats just bc its like slightly above 0hp
@ I see thanks for the info :)
Great stuff, love the comments below as a guide
Happy to hear you enjoyed it!, hoping to make the guide very soon :)
Made it to gold 2 last night only using groot, he’s insanely fun to use🌲
One thing is that Groot's walls insta break a spider nest if you get the wall under it, it's happened to me a few times
Yeah it does indeed, i recently learned if you don't damage the spawner before breaking it with wall, it will be an instant cooldown so its better to damage at least a little first
i was wondering if i was the only one who knew that lol i found it out a couple days ago and its pretty useful
Been one tricking groot since the game came out and i gotta say the IQ at 6:00 is so good, got both their tanks in the torture chamber
Nice to see a fellow groot player :) and yeah i love to set traps up like that against dive tanks, luckiy the peni walked into it too lol
Love the videos! What’s your best advice for dealing with Dr Strange? He just blocks my attacks so I’ve been trying to wall him off and deal damage with my melee but I’m struggling since I have to get really close to hit him

Do keep in mind though Strange is the best tnak in game so he is pretty hard to play against in a 1v1!
I love you content, how do you place 2 walls together? Like immediately, and at the same time
Thanks! and if you hold down the confirm button and drag to the side you should see 2 walls
I wanna learn all the Vanguards but Groot takes a while to click for me. QM is a nightmare to try to practice him and Im not confident enough vs the ex-GMs in Gold 1+. Solo queue tanking is hard sometimes.
yeah soloQ tanking can be really rough and start of the season is kinda hard aswell because how far everyone is set :/
Hey man love your vids! I’m trying to get better at Groot, and was wondering if you had any general tips for him that go beyond surface level. Thanks!
hey bro thanks for enjoying the videos it means alot!

i main peni / strange but this makes me want to play groot more
the thumbnail is funny to me becuase i only played groot because he is the fortnite character and that was my main game for the past 5 years 😭😭😭
LMFAO i feel you man, i loved playing fortnite, was my main game too for a LONG time ahaha
anytime you're near an invisible woman shield you'll get slowed
Yeah thanks for the info, it slows you down so much
At 2:15 that stuff happens to me so often. I think it gets caught on like random particles or something because it gets stuck on literally everything
@@blujay6893 yeah it’s really rough honestly

@@nesmonTV noooo but "How To Play Groot & Advance Groot Tutorial That Get Me to Diamond / GM in 1 Week This is How You Should Play Groot in High Elo" told me so 😣
@ Its okay 😔a lot of people are just learning this
Whenever you go up with the two small groot walls, you shouldn’t have to look up but instead use ur camera to look down onto the one wall and it places two under you. I think it’s faster then, instead of taking the time to look up
looking up or down is just a preference, plus you can do it sooner if you look up, you need to look directly down to do it that way
@ yeah can’t argue abt the preference part
you use ur walls in ways no one thought of before keep it up bro ur goated
thanks man! :)
i’ve found it’s easier to avoid venoms alt if you keep jumping personally😂
Invisible womans shield slows enemies that walk through it
Yeah its insane how slow it makes you, pretty cool
Based tree main
Thank you! Tree man >
You should always have a Bucky main yell “AGAIN” when he ults. It’s the rules.
FR it adds to it so much more
I missed ur vod review stream are u doing more this week
I will! hoping to do them every stream for a while during it :)
Prob loaded question. But thoughts on using wall to break spider nest?
Its great honestly, just make sure you damage it before because if you just wall it with it being damage the peni gets the spider nest back instantly. :)
@nesmonTV massive tip on hitting it first. Ty mate
Is groots ult best for grouping up people for ko ulta like iron mand or moon knight, or baiting out support ults?
100% better for grouping them up for moonknight, namor, bucky, iron man etc etc because you can actually kill through alot of the support ults that way. Its just im soloQ alot of the time so i don't have someone to combo with
Can you pls use the Guardians of the galaxy skin pls 🙏 in your next video or the one after 🙏
@@morelankyzone4592 I would but I don’t have that skin I’m sorry 😭
@nesmonTV owwwwww
ANOTHER GROOT SKIN THEN😭PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
@ once I get one for sure I will!! I promise 😭
Hit GM2 with Groot last season, but I have to swap when they counter me with Wolverine. What do you do when they counterswap?
i usually like to ask for an invis woman or a rocket raccoon, rockets super jump is a get out of jail free card, and invis woman completely ocutners him with all of her slows, pulls/pushes when im not able to have either on my team ill play very passive and try bait his passive out before making any plays. Congrats on the Gm2 man! :)
@@nesmonTV Thanks bro appreciate the insight
I played Groot yesterday, blocking 40k dmg. He's great.
Edit: actually my team's loki got MVP
damn well played man!
im pretty sure you were slowed by the penny traps right ?
I might've been honestly lol
How do you double wall? is it for pc only or no?
No you just need to hold your build button down and drag
I've climbed with Groot quite well but good wolverines are just taking me out of the game and forcing a swap to Magneto. Any tips?
Yeah its the same for alot of groot players so you arent alone! but my advice would be to ask for a invis woman, so she can push/pull him off of you at ease.

Slow was from the Peni Parker webs under your feet at the time
Edit: Invisible Woman shield does cause slow, not Peni webs
Oh really? i had no idea that slowed me LOL thank you!
@@nesmonTV I deeply apologize Mr. TH-camr it was the Invisible Woman shield NOT Peni Parker webs
@@waluigitheprophet4406 😂 its okay! big bang theory is a great show!
How are placing 2 small walls at the same time? It seems like you're setting 1 long wall with 2 of them built together instantly
if you hold your confirm build button itll let you place 2 walls at once, just drag to the side and release the button
@@nesmonTV thank you!
5:44 is actually tech holy
glad you like it ahah
What is the slow? I also have it happen and idk whats it from
people are saying its from invis womens Slow, which makes the most sense honestly
Invisible women's shields slow enemies when you walk through it
How are you placing two thorn walls at the same time
hold the build button and drag
@nesmonTV ah ok, learned a lot from your videos just binged a bunch last night
@ Ay thanks for watching! happy you learned alot from the videos :)
I think u were so Slow bc of the Invis woman orb that Pulls u in
yeah you would be correct, i had no idea it slowed lol
How do you do double wall like 0:47 and 1:57 ?
Yes I need to know can’t believe you’re the only person in the comments that asked this
If you hold the button down that you use the place the wall, then Drag it will show 2 walls being placed. Simply just let go and youll place both!
if you hold your confirm placement button down and drag to the side itll show you 2 of your walls instead of 1 (this can also be up the way)
