Btw I realise after looking at some comments people wanted me to be clearer on tp spots, positioning and how to use ult etc. So soon i'll have another guide out explaining how to play each map in the current season and how I play them. I'll show where I tp and try explain how i'd use my ult in certain scenarios and much more. So sorry for not explaining these things in this unranked to gm.
If I may ask, can you also make a small list or video on the best/worst maps for reaper? On the video I can infer a little bit based on your reaction to seeing the maps in the beginning, but I think it would be super helpful to see which ones are good, bad, or just okay for reaper :D
@@ChoiceOW i have a question. Im a reaper main but i ranked down from gold 2 to b4 and i cant rank out of bronze bc my teamates are incompetent and i go against plats. What can i do
@@moyopengu7021 best bet is to find a group to play with. If you can’t do that then you better sweat to the max and solo carry your way out of there. Will be very tough but definitely do able with Reaper
I really appreciate you taking the time to cut out the parts where nothing is happening and label the segments. Helps a lot for those of us who have limited time to watch. Thank you and cheers 🍻
your commentary is truly hilarious , i hope you never lose that spark , and on top of the amazing gameplay you have earned yourself a loyal subscriber, im currently gm4 with just around 300 hours i’ve been learning pretty quick ! thank you for the gameplay!
Easily the best unranked to gm. All the other ones are just streams pulled together. I can’t stress how much I appreciate it when you edit you back in the fight after you die. I can feel the passion behind the videos bro, keep it up❤
Best reaper in OW! It is also nice to have an actual Unranked to GM video with Educational in the name and is actually EDUCATIONAL. Most other videos are just raging and ego, but yours are truly educational and helpful. Thanks for all the tips and advice!
As a gold reaper with over a year of time played, I’ve been trying to get better at reaper as much as possible. Watching this video and looking at what you do helped a lot. Thank you 🙏
This was amazing and a genuine thank you for this. It was educational, funny, informative and an eye opener. Kept my train commute entertainment up to scratch. You deserve serious recognition for your efforts.
Eternal bronze reaper main here:D I'm so glad I got this video in my recommendations. For years I couldn't find someone who would do a challenge like this with Reaper and, finally, I found you) Man, you are a beast! You make it look so easy that I just want to close the browser and launch the game) But I also know that I'm nowhere near as good as you so I'll just keep watching. Hopefully, I will learn a thing or two by watching this challenge) Thanks man, keep up the good job!
Wonderful gameplay as usual. Seeing you play on all these different maps and where you position yourself is incredibly helpful! Keep up the great work! God bless
You're really entertaining, rapidly becoming one of my fav OW creators. Just some constructive criticism, I wouldn't call this 'Educational'. If you could explain your decisions a bit more, like when to play more defensive v aggressive or how you deal with bad match ups and still get value, what Reaper's bad match ups are, when to save his ult vs risk it. There were a few tips and tricks, but that'd be my personal preference. Maybe I'm wrong, but good content regardless man!
@@ChoiceOW I really enjoyed just watching it as more like a series of going unranked to gm, I don't feel that it always has to be labeled an educational vid, rather I believe it can work great as just a challenge vid series. For example, unranked to gm but a random hero generator picks my dps character for every match. Then you play the whole match as whatever dps that the generator gives you.
My favorite character is the reaper guy. he is very powerfull. special move, honestly is one of the best in the game and so he comes equipped with these two revolvers and only takes about 3 or 4 shots to actually execute a kill so it comes really in handy specially when you come from the side.
Really enjoy your video! Especially the energy you have, looks like you're really having fun. A lot of other player out there got toxic really easily. Keep up the good work!
I main genji, but reaper's my secondary whenever the enemy monke is giving me cancer. Love your unranked to GM, and this def helped me. I was never able to find nice Reaper guides or players, so I'm very thankful
You are so enjoyable to watch and and I learn alot from simply watching. And you are a bit educational too always explaining a little of your decision making!
I have been wanting to play Reaper more, and stumbled on your video. I have to say this is one of the best overwatch unranked to gm videos I have seen. Just seeing your concise and consistent gameplay, along with your commentary is so incredibly helpful. I also love your personality, it made this video so enjoyable to watch! Automatic subscribe for me. Would love to see your take on other heroes! Would love to see your take on a video like this with Kiriko! 💜
If anyone is looking for his play style I believe it’s in the beginning of a team fight you flank and try to waste their cool downs and try to kill their suppers then reset and go back to your team and front line for the rest of the fight.
This video is the first of yours that I’ve seen. With the PvE news I probably won’t play the game much if at all. But I’ll still watch you play it on YT. Super entertaining to watch!
I would highly recommend to disable the upscaling in any fps game as it will introduce input latency so put it to default also the upscaling just sometimes makes the game blurry or the lines kinda weird so I would definitely avoid that
Watching this in January 2024, finally just realized that this was before they changed Cassidy’s grenade to hinder, I was so confused how he kept wraithing out of it!! 😂
Hey, just wanna stop by and say thanks for these videos, really seems like you are a positive lad to play/talk with, I really like that. Some players I watch have some sort of weird ego's or have their toxic moments. But you keep it cool and civil, which I really adore and respect! One thing tho, this video in particular fells just like a compilation of your gameplay video, would really like some explanations about your strategy and gameplay! Nonetheless, I watched the whole video and your personality alone makes me wanna stay, just would like to have the actual explanations and this will be golden! Cheers. EDIT: Whoops, didn't see Part 2 of this, so this is well-known to you, my bad! 😅
i genuinely did not know some of the spots on some of the maps existed, i’m a support one trick (kiriko main) and i only recently got out of silver about a week and a half ago. just peaked at gold 2 but next season i’m gonna get back to the grind with a fresh state of mind. but learning reaper genuinely seems kinda fun considering i already play an aggressive kiriko with 2 major standout things being my ult does damage and i have to play a lot closer to people than i’d like
I think fsr image sharpening doesn’t do anything unless u have resolution scaling set up (even at 99%). I personally have lit seen a difference but when I turn on render scale it looks really sharp
Love the videos! Just an idea but maybe you could use like a randomiser to pick 2-3 dps characters and allow yourself to switch between them. It would allow you some more flexibility but keep the challenge of not being any dps.
In the beginning where you go through your settings try changing render Scale of automatic and set it on 99 or 101% as this for some reasons enable some features to help the overall flow of the game
did your aim on reaper just get better overtime? i find that sometimes ill flank, get in the perfect position, and whiff too many high damage shots only getting hitting the outer ring of the spread, exposing my position and failing to get a pick.
Can you post a brief video about torb turret placement? When you said you wouldn't play reaper on junkertown I was really curious how you'd play torb. You're a legend. Thank you
If you wanna climb faster then play with your mates as that got me out of gold at the time or you’ve just got to keep grinding and eventually you’ll go up. The more you play the better you’ll get (hopefully) and you should climb.
2:50 It's better to put it a couple of frames under your monitors max refresh. Less tearing. I also THINK it might stress the GPU less, since it wont render images your monitor isnt fast enough to display anyways. Unsure of that one
I agree. It’s entertaining tho don’t get me wrong. I wish there was more talk on the decision making, positioning, when and how to set up ult. Synergizing with the team etc. Great vid tho I couldn’t do it I’m gold
curious as to why you think Nepal is bad for Reaper. I use him on it all the time (one of the primary maps I use him on, others being Lijang and Hollywood). It’s a 50/50 tbh lol. Haven’t watched all the way through yet but you’re my favorite top Reaper player currency, hoping to be as good as you one day, love maining Reaper
I only don’t like the hole map on Nepal since it’s so open but if you cap the point first then it’s good. It’s just tricky making reaper work on the first attack but if you cap first then holding the point is pretty easy
Other players when they get nano'd: IM GOING INNNN ChoiceOW when he gets nano'd: WhAT thE FUcK- but also goes in Love the gameplays btw :) Influencing me to play reaper now
I may have missed the explanation but why do we hear you spam clicking every time you ult? Are you spamming q or a mouse button? And whats the benefit? Love the vid and thanks for all the time and effort you put into it!
Even if you lose the majority of placements, unless you play exceptionally bad; you'll get mostly gold+ placement. 5 wins with good stats is plat placement. Bronze would require very bad gameplay and losing. It's actually pretty hard to place in bronze.
Do i need a crosshair for reaper or is the huge default circle good enough? Cause im wondering if i deal more dmg if the crosshair hits the head exactly instead of just the hit box
Most of the time I use a dot or a circle with a dot in the middle because with reaper all you have to do most of the time (unless they are REALLY close to you) is get body shots. Body shots do as much damage as headshots most of the time. So you can use the huge default circle if you like but I usually make the circle a little bit smaller (a centre gap of 40 ish) or just use a dot.

Is that mostly correct?
Kinda, I focus the tank which should hopefully force support cooldowns then I flank the supports
Most entertaining unranked to gm I’ve watched! 👏 Thanks for the hard work 👍
I can’t believe I’m watching all 5 hours but definitely my favorite overwatch video of all time
As a new player who love playing reaper this video is so helpful ty so much!!
glad it helped :)
Love the commentary, especially the 'WooooOOo" sound you make when you wraith into the enemy.
This video is the first of yours that I’ve seen. With the PvE news I probably won’t play the game much if at all. But I’ll still watch you play it on YT. Super entertaining to watch!
Everyone complains about Smurfs but is always happy for the hundreds of Smurf to GM videos....
this was super entertaining, i like the names you give the enemies and the commentary
I would highly recommend to disable the upscaling in any fps game as it will introduce input latency so put it to default also the upscaling just sometimes makes the game blurry or the lines kinda weird so I would definitely avoid that
the reaper wraith movement with “woooo” cracks me up everytime 😂
"McRightclick" is the best shit ive head this week. also preciate any of these type of uploads especially a slept on character rn
Here I am watching this video for a second time just because I love your Reaper gameplay and can't wait to watch new videos.
Oh wow i didn't expect this too much effort on the vid man, I haven't watched it all but I sure will
Watching this in January 2024, finally just realized that this was before they changed Cassidy’s grenade to hinder, I was so confused how he kept wraithing out of it!! 😂

first video seen i’ve seen of yours. very entertaining! subscribed!
The work behind of this is so amazing thank you for share

"that's one! that's two!
Oooo he has the melody... Not anymore" 😂
19:58 look at that disrespect lmfao
Cool to see this im grinding on reaper,I’m at masters 2 started at plat 5
Keep it up
I’m a secondary reaper player and a Mei main and this helps me so much with reaper
i genuinely did not know some of the spots on some of the maps existed, i’m a support one trick (kiriko main) and i only recently got out of silver about a week and a half ago. just peaked at gold 2 but next season i’m gonna get back to the grind with a fresh state of mind. but learning reaper genuinely seems kinda fun considering i already play an aggressive kiriko with 2 major standout things being my ult does damage and i have to play a lot closer to people than i’d like
I’m a Kiriko support player too because I like playing with aggressive characters like Reaper. So I’d definitely give Reaper a try
I think fsr image sharpening doesn’t do anything unless u have resolution scaling set up (even at 99%). I personally have lit seen a difference but when I turn on render scale it looks really sharp
yeah, render scale does have a big impact but I was just saying what I had on at the time. I agree though

Great video absolutly loved it

yep. Welcome to hell haha

ty for editing out all the downtime
I'm gonna start calling Cassidy mc right click too
Glad you did this but wish it was more educational. Talking through each map would be handy
I’ll probably do a separate video on how I play each map

How did you place right into platinum instead of starting in bronze?
I think if you win 5 in a row it places you there
